Of the opposition who seek to do right and
induce them to join Us in tho struggle for
liberty and country. Prevail upon them to
vote against mob violence, the disregard OF
laws and official imbcclity and corruption.
Democrats have everything to encourage
them. They can point with pride to thciI
past history, and look forward with hope tc
the day of our national dcliverancc. Nc
Democrat has ever denounced the constitu
ton. No Democrat has asserted that 9Th,
American Union was a lie. No Democrat
has stigmatised the flag of our country as

crat has said that "thc sgners of the deca-
ration of independence were hypocrites and
traitors to their principles. y No Demo-
crat has occupied the stump and made dis
union speeches under flag which had but
part of the national stars on its folds. No
Democrat has said ''thc Union cannot exist

the liberty of speech and ofprcss, made the

what Is said OF Mr.. Lincoln
Privately by His Friends.

The Washington correspondent of the
Cincinnati Catholic telegraph, an ultra Re
publican, writes as follows to that Journal
write what / know, and without fear of
successful contradiction, when | inform
your readers that there is not member of
Congress, in Washington, who does not de-
nouncc in private conversation, Mr. Lincoln
and his Cabinet, for usurpations that would
alarm the country were they known; and
yet when an effort is made to expose them
these very members rally to the support of
the Administration. Should they fail to do
so, their political death, as in the case of
the Hon. Henry Winter Davis and Senator
Wade, is at hand.
He further says:
Ny letter has already run beyond its prop
er length, and yet have scarcely touched
upon the subject | set out to write Of -
When to the cotton, turpcntinc, rosin, tar
and tobacco swindlcs we add the arbitrary
arrests, the Illegal usurpatons, such as the
Commissioning Frank Blair Major General
without the concurrence of the Senate, and
the establishments Of military governments
against the known will of Congress, our
people may realize that our Government
has changed its character, and that our lib
critics are in jeopardy.
