d The polling of every Democrat and con-

) In the State of Indiana administration
maiorities have been manufactured by the
indecent exhibition of thousands Of illegal
votes. reyyy4ys
In Maryland military force has been
used to silence the Democratic press, ana
the FEDERAL government has dictated the
institutions Of state. ta
In Tennessee, the Republican candidate
for the vice presidency, holding, by the sp
pointment and at the pleasure Of the Press
ident. a pro>consular Office unknown to any
law of Congress, has assumed the armed
control of polls commanded by him to be
opened. and the President of the United
States, appealed to by the free citizens OF
that state to right such wrongs, has treated
that appeal with coarse contempt.
Last of all, the legal right of the soldiers
of the republic freely to join with their tel
low citizens in the choice of national
Chief Magistrate is menaced and made q
mockery. Their camps, thrown open to
political agents of the administration, are
sought to be closed to the legal represent
atives of the Democracy, under prete1ts
which leading organs OF the Republican
party find themselves compelled to de
nounce as insulting to the common sense
of the nation The mails are violated to
seze the votes that have been cast against
him, and to place his own ballots in their
stead; and when it had been discovered
that the votes of the army, which our can.

were cast in great majority for their old
commander, plot was contriVed to seize
their votes, arrest the agents who had COLI
lected them, under pretence of Furnishing
frauds which can only be discovered by in
spectors of election with their poll lists be-
for, them, which could only be committed
and completed there, and which can justly
be punished only under the stringent laws
and by the officers Of the states them
selves. .- -,
In the presence Of this odious and upex-
ampled spectacle the Democratic National
Committee call upon all, of whatever name
or party creed, lovers of liberty and the
Union, now more truly than ever before
zone and inseperable," to PIT forth all their
strength in one final and triumphant effort
for the salvation of both.
WELDING the most gigantic system OF
official patronage and corruption which the
world has ever seen, the administration, in
whatever direction it turns, finds itself con-
fronted by impending defeat. g
It's open completely in acts of fraud and
violence is full confession that Abraham
Lincolns re. election cannot be accomplish
ed by an honest appeal to the unbought
will of a nation of freemen.
By such an appeal the reelection OF
Abraham Lincoln can yet be prevented, in
spite of fraud and violence. Such an appeal
the Democratic National Committee now
make to their fellow-citizens in all the
States, but more especially to the thous-
ands of true and loyal men who, in Mary
land, in Indiana, in Ohio, in Kentucky, and
in Missouri, now suffering in. their persons
their feelings and their property, from The
reckless usurpations Of the Executive and
the chartered tyranny of bis commissioned
agents have almost despaired of the re-
public.
