PEACE DEMOCRACY,

The following clippings serve to show the
feelings and purposes Of the peace sneaks
and indicate the policy to be pursued if Nc
Cellan be elected:
We have not the slightest doubt that there
is mutual understanding between the Sey
mours, the Woods, Vallandigham and the
rebels. This understanding is shown in tll
secession platform adopted by the Chicago
Convention, and in the nomination Of Mr.
Pendleton, OF OhiO-whO is O practical Sc
cessionist-for Vice President.
It is said that the "peace sneaks" were
induced to agree to the nomination Of Nc.
Clelian on their platform, by private assur'
anceS, that in case OF success, HoratiO Sey.
mour should be Secretary Of State, Vallan
digham, of war. and that Cox, voorhees,, and
the other shining lights, should be rernein.
bered and receive their share of the spoiIs.
There can be no doubt but Mcclellan has
entered into plot with Belmont, the agent
Of the Rothschilds (who are the heaviest
holders of Confederate bonds in EurOpe)
that, in the event of his election, dishoLor.
able peace will be patched up, so that the
United States will have to assume the deb,
Of the bogus government at Richmond =
This is the reason why Belmont spent So
much money to have Mcclellan nominated
He was the only man named for the Prcsi
dency that the foreign Jew could manipulate
The New York Nems, the vilest rebel
sheet in the country, declares that it accepts
the platform adopted by the Convention
| (Chicago) as a great triumph for the peace
party" 1t declares that the propositions for
All armisice and a Convention arc its own
and that they have now been sanctioned by
the " Democracy That is precisely the
fact. The platform is a triumph for the
peace faction. or. which is the same thing
the rebels and traitors of the country. 1t Is
an open sale, if carried out, of the nation &c
the traitors. There is nothing in it bu,
treason to the country and insult TO the 10y.
al. 1t suits the News. 1t will suit jeff
Davis. 1t suits his friends. But it is ar
object Of detestation 10 all true men. 4
That distinguished villain known as Hora
ito Seymour, Governor of New York b,
fraud, made speech at Tweedle Hall, il
which he declared that he preferred the rebe
constitution to that of the Union.
Lewis Cass. who has been called Demo
Graf all his life, is reported to have denounc
cd the Copperhead Chicago platform as {
most isnominious surrender to the rebels
We presume the report is correct, for we d.
not see how be or any other real Denocra
could do otherwise. 1t is not merely al
ignominious surrender to the rebels" I
is worse than that. 1t is an out and on
adoption Of rebel doctrines. ...
. The New York Herald affirms that tn
Chicago Copperhead platform will encourag
the rebels to hold out until the election
There can be no doubt about that Tha
vas its aim and design. The Herald ais
declares that the platform promises the -eb
els one Of two things-the election of MI
: Lincoln and northern instruction, or tn
, election Of Mcclellan and an immediate ces
, sation Of hostilities, in which event :" tn
rebels will have everything their own way
That is what the Herald says the rebels ar
promised by the Chicago platform.
, Horatio Seymour, in 1868, in New York
did all that he could to Withdraw the troop
, who were crushing out the riot, that he Nigh
! leave the rioters victorious and in 1864, a
r Chicago, he advocates the withdrawal of tn
r troops who are crushing the Rebellion, tia
he may leave the Rebels victorious. Tn
people don't believe in such "efforts for
!, cessation of hOstilites."
