Democracy.

Judge Rice, in his duh, prosy speech at New
City Hall last Wednesday evening, spent much
of his force on the Democratic party, graz
ciously informing his audience that the
growth and greatness of this country were all
due to that party which has controlled Amer
lean affairs for the last seventy years, and en-
deavoring to convince his hearers that the
party Is the same now it always has been.
May Heaven have mercy on his stupidity (!
We commend the following extract from a
letter written by THOMAS FRANCIS MEA-
CHER to Col. Quincy of the 9th Mass. Vols.
in the army of the Potomac to the particular
attention of Judge Rice. The extract is
sharp and to the point and may open the eyes
of this old dreamer on the charms of ancient
Democracy and set him to thinking more Sc
riously on the present aspect of affairs:
"To have been a Democrat in the days of
Andrew jackson was to have been an Ameri-
lean citizen in the boldest and proudest con-
ception of the word. 1t was to have been the
devoted friend of the country, whether it was
right or wrong, and to the extent OF being
fierce and relentless enemy of all who were
not for 1t in the fullest measure OF its growth
and glory. Nowadays 20 be Democrat is
to be the partisan of selfish and conscience
less faction, which, under the captivating pre-
text of State rights, habeas corpus, and other
popular claims and rights OF the kind, would
cripple the national power, play with the wild
est or wickedest recklessness into the hands
of every foe who would see that power laid
low, either to CRAFTY, his jealousy or ven
geance, or better his mean condition on the
wreck furnished him by its overthrow

Excellent Comfort for Richmond,

Mr. Sanford E. Church, one of the leading
Recommendation men in New York made
speech a few evenings ago in that city in fa-
Vor Of Mcclellan and his coadjutor upon the
Chicago ticket, Vallandigham's Gown familiar
friend" in which he said = sa ssi'
at is an unlawful and unconstitutio,o =, NOR.
that it is wicked war; that it is crime q
gainst God and humanity; that thew have no
more right to call upon the white men of the
North, or the treasury of the North, to ficbt
such battles, any more than they have a right
without cause, TO make war upon Brazil or Gu,
ba, because the institutions of those countries
do not please their Puritanical notions"
Such speakers must be exceedingly pleasing
to JEFF. Davis and his confederates in Rich
mond. They utter words of encouragement
70 the rebels to hold on until the November
eieeuon, and then if Mcclellan is elected, he
WI, discontinue the war, recall the soldiers
ana give the rebels all they ask, and that is a
separate and Independent confederacy. Under
such decisive belief the rebels will do ali in
their power to hold out until the ides of Mo-
vember, and then the rebellion will collanse
like rent balloon. 1t is now fiutterinp in the
wind and may fall ere that short time elansos

Southern Voices.

Z As the rebellion grows weaker and weaker,
the rebel leaders grow more and more rabid.
They now hate and despise the democratic
"mudsills' of the North more than ever, and
yet they still hope for and court their aid
in achieving their independence. The Rich
mond Enquirer pitches into the democrats and
dough. faces, and accuses them of being alto
gether too slow and cowardly to go for peace
unless they are sustained by the success of the
rebel armies. Now that is true; but it is very
hnmiliating and shameful, and must sink the
Mcclellan party into the lower depths of deg
radiation. Hear what the Richmond ENQUIRER
says on the subject, and let Little Mac and
his supporters blush to their eyelids if they
have any shame in them. AhtAe4
SIT is the confederate army which has Great
ed peace party at the North. Johnston and
Beaureguard planted it; Lee watered it; and
we must give it increase; we must nurse it
and cherish it, by the same methods as hither-
to-that is with the bullet and bayonet.
Should the military situation be unfavorable
to us next month"; Mcclellan would not be
elected; and if he were, his election could do
us no good. At present, he and his party
promise neither peace nor war; intend
neither peace nor war. Janus himself
did not face both ways more steadily than
the democracy; in their hands the door of the
temple of Janus would neither be shut nor
open; would be ajar; and it is only we who
could either fling the door wide, or close and
lock and seal il for generations"
Yes Johnston and Beauregard planted the
peace party in the North, and Lee watered it,
and we must give it increase"l Mark that We
war democrats and govern yourselves accord
ingly. The Richmond Enquirer knows where
of 1t afirms. The editor of that rebel journal
is far from being a fool, and speaks the con
victions of his heart. cog lae tase'. Il

Judge Rice arraigns the Union men for
changing their policy since 1861--says the
country before this change was with the adj
ministration. The loyal country is now. But
pray, Judge, what ground was occupied in
August 1861 by the Democratic convention of
Maine, which nominated Dana for Governor?
Were you not opposed to the majority of that
convention, then? Are you not with it now
Who has changed? You deceive yourself,
Judge, if you imagine that there is any one so
blind as not to see that you are walking hum
bly, and penitently in the path trod before you
by such leaders as Gilman Smith, "Dud" Clay
and Mr.. Bruce, of Patricktown.
Inls61, the Administration and the loyal
people said, the rebellion must be put down at
whatever cost. They say so now-and because
they find that measures are necessary to effect
this end which they did not then deem SO, and
nave adopted them, where is the inconsistent
cyT Is 1t not rather in such as Judge Rice,
who then professed unconditional unionism,
but who now make the salvation OF the coun-
try dependent upon the preservation of slav-
cry? os1 sHaoT = gHE si sni
