ALL THE COUNTRY's WOES "DEM-
OCRATIC."

The Rebellion was Democratic. 1t broke out
in Democratic States. 1t was confined to Demo-
cratic States. 1t was hatched by Southern
Democrats. 1t was fostcred by Northern Demo-
Gratis. Democrats Oflicered the Rebel army.
Democrats made up its rank and file. Demo-
Gratis filled every office in the Confederate
Government, from the Presidency down TO the
clerkships and the messcngerships. There
wasn't Republican with shoulder-strap,
or musket or "place," in the whole deviiish
concern. In the Democratic City of Washing
ton, under the Democratic Administration OF
Buchanan, the Rebellion was conspired and
prepared. A Democratic member OF that
Democratic Administration stripped the North
of arms, and smuggled them over to the South
and sent the army where it would be unavail'
able, or could easily be captured. democratic
member of that same Democratic Admlnistra-
ton scattered the navy over the world so that it
lcould not he used on the Rebel seabOard.
Democratic Secretary of the Treasury plundered
his trust to supply the Rebellion with money.
A Democratic President, entreated to do some
thing to save the Nation, refused, declaring and
farguing that the Government could not Con-
stitutonally defend itself, and that it was un-
lawful to coerce Rebels and he sat sullenly
down, like the Democrat and traitor that ne
was, and allowed the Nations arsenals to be
plundered, and the Nations ships, navy-yardS
and fortresses TO be seized, and the Rebel armies
to be organized, without lifting finger to pre-
vent. Democrats throughout every Northern
and Western State appauded the conduct OF
their Democratic Presdent-adopted and de-
Tended his Democratic doctrine, that the Gov
ernmcnt had no right to apply force to suppress
Rcbclon--and, from the word $50" politi-
cally and personally opposed every legislative,
financial, military and moral measure taken to
speedily and successfully prosecute tho war and
save the Nations life. TBg CoUSTRYs PAST
