How II hurts 'erl

During our absence last week, the gen.
t.cman left IN charge of the editorial
department of the Democrat very propely
touched up certain California .oafer by
the name of Johnson, who is probably
playing the role of Government spy upon
the conduct and conversation Of the people
of this county, and who goes about making
abolition speeches. Mention was also
made of the fraudulent pretenses of Messrs.
Pershing and Chaplin in connection with
their peregrinations over this county
Protesting to act in behalf of a good cause,
one in which democrats and republicans
are alike interested. they have gone
about making partizan speeches denounc-
ing one half of the community as enemies
of their country. and then ask these same
men to contribute of their means to aid
them in their work. This the Democrat
very properly denounced, and for doing
so, ore j. a. Haigh who is in the employ
of the administration. took occasion last
Saturday night to pour out quantity Of
vilil6cation and abuse upon our devoted
Lead What he said was too coarse and
ungentlemanly to repeat in our columns,
and we are pleased to add, utterly disgust
cd some of his own party friends. This
man Haigh has some reputation here as a
very trihing, worthless fellow, who, to
get little government pap, would stoop
to almost any act Of political degradation
necessary to secure his ends. He talks of
our inconsistency, and either through
mistake or malevolence, misrepresents us
and our former course We have only to
say in reply, remove the beam out of
thine own eye" Two years ago he was
opposed to arming negroes, opposed to the
emancipation proclamation of the Presi-
dent, opposed to the course pursued by
Fremont aud Hunter, for which they
were rebuked by the President; he was
then the apoIogist for and endorser of
Gen. Mcclellan; he then thought him the
finest military genius of the age, and q
sterling patriot. Where IL he now p
check by jowl with those who denounce
ten Mcclellan for the very things for
which he then lauded and praised him; in
favor of all those things he then opposed
abusing his former friends to crafty the
malicious dispositions f those who are too
cowardly to assail us themselves. Why is
lie here at all why is he not doing the
woik which properly telongs to the sta
ton given him, overlooking the mails as
lie is paid for doing, instead of loafng
about the country making abolition
slecthes?

An Immense Democratic Meet
ing ut Warsaw.

Last Saturday was proud day for the
Democracy of Kosciusko County. Never
in the history of that county was such a
mass of human beings convened as on that
day. From early in the morning until
after noon, procession after procession
kept pouring into the town until every
available spot seemed occupied by the
honest patriots who had met under the
Constitution to consider the questions in
volvei In the present campaign.
Only one stand had been provided for
the occasion, but the citizens we're not slow
III providing another, and speaking was
conducted from two stands. We have not
the space to notice the speeches further
than to say that the unbounded enthu-
siasm of the crowd testified to their hearty
approval Of what the speakers said The
crowd was varously estimated at from
10000 to t. 900 persons, and they were
unanimous for Little Mae and Pendleton
For such large crowd the best of order
and feeling prevailed, the abolitionists
kept we'll indoors and had little to say.
In the evening, however, after the crowd
had gone home, they began to come out
from their hiding places, and like a set of
cowardly villains, fell upon an old man
who was intoxicated, and beat him shame
fully. The democrats are putting a mark
upon these towards, and when the proper
time comes they must atone for these in
famous outrages upon helpless old men.
Democratsof Koseusko. take courage, the
prospect is Frightening, a set of bad men
have squandered the county funds, and
are now trying to conceal the fraud by all
sorts Of chicanery The people see this
high handed game, and will meet it at the
ballot box In October.

The Fall Elections.

Ii is now ascertained that Maine did not
do so badly the Abolition papers at first
claimed. The Miscegenationists have rather
fallen off in their vote, and strong hopes,
We hear, are entertained, of carrying the
State for Mcclellan and Pendleton in No
vember. Maine turned about once be-
tween the September and November cleo
tons, and why may she not do 50 again?
The next elections in order are those of
Indiana, Ohio and Pennsylvania, all of
which elect State officers. on the second
Tuesday 0lth) of October. Indiana
elects Governor. This is very impor-
tant matter, and we should if possible, be
sure and obtain Democratic Governors in
all the States that hold elections this fall
The States are, after all, the pedestals up
on which the Federal government rests,
and the Importance ofsecuring them cannot
be overestlmated. Our opponents, we may
be sure, will leave no stone unturncd to
perpetuate their power The Democracy
must be up and at them. Organize in every
school district, and be prepared to get out
the voters No time is to be lost.-New

taken on this point to-day (which would be
construed INTO treason three -ffths OF

the name of Gcp. Mcclellan is seldom

We are now almost oaily receiving in
formation from the officers and men ar
irving from City Point, that the nomination
of Gen Mcclellan was received with I'M
bounded enthusiasm in very division of
the army of the Potomac, and that all the
reports to the contrary published in the
administration press. are manufactured at
headquarters "by authority" An officer
who arrived from the front on Saturday
assures us that cheers arose along the entire
length of our lines when the Chicago nom
nations became known.
Some of the rebel pickets inquired what
the cheering was all about, when on being
informed that Mcclellan was Nominated

The abolition press imputes the decline
in gold to federal successes. This is an
absurdity; for it is well understood that all
the victories won by Lincoln under his
negro equality policies only tend to prolong
the war and make settlement more I'M
possible This was shown by the fact that
gold went up when tile country received
the intelligence of the fall of Atlanta. =
The only reasonable explanation of the
decline of Gold is found in the increased
confidence of the people in the election of
Mcclellan. They know that it is only
through the defeat Of Lincoln that the
country can be saved from utter bankrupt
cy; therefore as time passes, and the indi-
cations point with certainty to Mcclellan :
election, there rcvivcs hope III the sta
bility Of the government. Influenced by
this, gold is declining, or. rather, govern
ment issues are increasing in value
Elect Mcclellan, and grecnbacks would
not be far from par; re-elect Lincoln and
in less than month thereafter gold will
be quoted firm at 800, with an upward
tendency.
The determination to hurl from his seat
the buifoon Lincoln, and place upon it the
gentleman and statesman Mcclellan, is
what is the matter with gold Gicogo

Says the Mobile Register of General

Sherman
1--WE cannot deny to him the claim of a
highly successful military leader. His
laurels throw into the shade the names of
Mcclellan and Grant He has prov ed
hims elf the best and most daring of the
federal generals"
The most frequently used argument of
abolitionism against Mcclellan, is based
upon the fact that he is spoken well of by
the southern press. BY the same rule,
we suppose that Sherman will now be at
tackled with all the malgnancy of aboli-
ton journalism Times.
