Cheering News!

We had an opportunity to talk with a
large number of onr democratic friends
from the townships, at the great meeting
last night, They all gave the most
cheering accounts of our prospects to-day,
in every portion of the county. Our dem
ocratic friends in the county are awake to
the importance of the contest, and will
exert themselves nobly to give greatly
increased majority over that of last year.
They say if tho democrats of the city
do their duty, we shall achieve victory
that will cause the heart of every demo-
crat to rejoice, aud send CONSERVATION and
dismay into the Abolition ranks
Democrats Of Dayton,you have yet sew
eral hours to work Put in your whole
time until the closing of the polls. Let
not democratic voter be left behind. Do
this, and we shall have democrtie victo-
ry worth talking about for ayear to come

SAUCE FOR THE GOOSE

How long is it since the fellows who are
now whining about VallAudighams notice
of thei. attempt to awo voters ct the polIs,
we're carrying around papers asking one and
mother to sign an obligation to patronize
no democrats in business ? But of course no
one ought to object to their conduct. They
aro class educated to exclusive privileges.
They may prescribe at will, and especially
don't ask them to pay taxes, oh mol let
laboring men do that,
But wait q lite Shoddy, we will see.

Just the difference.

"Uniou business men" have the right as
citizens to act in politics as they please. But
when they attemp to use their business houses
TO which they invite and expect Democrats
to resort to and deal at) for party purposes
and with the avowed purpose of prescribing
Democrats, they must and will be met, by
prescription, in return. Their "rights," in
deed Cool impudence Just as il Demo-
Gratis we're bound to buy OF them, and had no
right to go where they pleased We will
teach these fellows better. Let them begin
to learn at once.

Don't throw away your votes

vote for Parrot aud Furnass is vote
for Sehenck for the Senate. Schenek in the
Senate, is an enemy there to President john
sons policy; and an enemy to the Union of
the States. Sohenck in the Senate, is a
friend there to negro Suffrage, an enemy to
taxation of United States bonds and an en-.
emy to all practical plans of reconstruction
of the Union. Schenek in the Senate, is
throwing away, so far as we are concerned,
Of all the benefits to be derived from the war.
Whoever is a friend of the President cannot
vote for Schenck's men The President says
he knows no friends but those who favor his

LOOK OUT FOR ROORBACKS GLIEs
AND IsNICHsLIkE.N

There will be tremendous fuss in to-
morrow mornings journal about John G.
Lowe and the circular issued by the De-
mocracy in favor of Judge Haynes. All
for the purpose of soaring off Republicans.
Pitch into your friends, Mr.. Journal
Call it a secret circular Publish it as
"secret," No matter if it was sent to you
long before your sleepy establishment
knew it was out.
But it wont help you bit. Dragooning
day has gone by.

Mr.. Lowe, having spent four years in perSe
cutting others throws up the sponge in one
week after the public attention is brought to
bear upon his peculiar position. We thought
he had more pluck, having been Colonel
But really it Is contemplate to hear his
organ whine away Sbout the persecution of
Mr. Lowe" We have hardly touched him,
before he cries like good fellow
Don't play the baby, Mr.. journal That's
too soft for anything. Stand up and take it.
We are only playing just now.

Democrats, Attention /!

The time for argument has gone by.
The hour for action has arrived. Are you
ready g.?
Shall our glorious old county take her
stand in the Abolition ranks ? Or shall
we rescue her from negro suffrage and the
filthy doctrines of negro equality?
Democrats, upon you rests the decision
of this question If you falter in your
work, she will take her place in the black
list. But if you do your duty, as did the
gallant Democracy of Connecticut, all
will go well.
Let us then be up and doing Let us
preserve our institutions for the white
race. Let us forever annihilate the party
that even equivocAtes upon this important
question.
Again, we say Are yoss reddyF If
you are, tomorrow mornings sun will
find you at the polls with the "white
mans ticket" in your hands; and to-
morrow's sun will set upon glorious
victory. Heaven grant the grand result

PARTY va PRINCIPLE.

The Empite is engaged in perfectly leeit-
innate business in abusing Colonel Lowe, the
nominee Of the Union Party ior Judge Of the
Superior Court II is anxious TO have him
beaten, that the Copperhesd party may euioy
a triumph. OF course they will rejoice II be
is beaten. II Union men desire TO maintain
the organization Of their party, there will be
no Copperhead triumph. by voting the
straight Union ticket they wall disappoint the
Copperheads. Journal
The journal is not quite surs that the
Empire is "disloyal" in commenting
upon Col. loves upftuess for the office
to which he aspiros.
The current in which the journal has
lately been drifting, indicates that it would
sacrifice the judicial interests ofthis coun-
ty for two reasons, if not more. One to
sustain the action Of a partizan convention
the other to prevent a triumph on the
part of the Democracy in its efforts to
maintain the integrity Of the Superior
Court, This makes good, to certain
extent, the charge made by the Democrats
against the Abolitionists, that they have
uniformity placed party above principles.
Yet as there are men in its party who re-
tain some sense of honor, and who do not
regard their pledges" as mere idle talk,
the journal desiguates it as Legitimate
business" TO canvass the merits of Judge
Haynes, and present them in striking con-
trast with the uuftness of Col. Lowe for
the highest judicial position in the coun-
ty.
OF course we "will rejoice If Col Lowe
is beaten" for the reason that his defeat
will be the triumph of merit over inca
pacity. of reason over prejudice, of the
interests of the people over the base par
tizan influences which have been brought
to boar on the Judiciary of this county,
and also for the reason that the Democra-
cy will thus be enabled to cvince that their
highest object is the public good, instead
of mere paliizan success. This is in stri-
king contrast with the conduct of the
journal, and its injunction in regard to
the "IIaynes' circular" in which it says
1--WE enjoin upon Union men the duty Of
voting the genuine Union ticket, to savt
their party organization p

One WORD More,

We issue our paper to-day several hours in

order to say another word to our Democratic

Abolition Lcgic.

The Journal denounces everybody, who
thinks of voting for Haynes as "disorgan-
izers," in league with Copperheads, &C. &c.
Yet in the same breath it begs on its knees
for votes for Warren Munger, who won't vote
for Lowe, but will vote for Haynes.
Bad logic II John Lowe is not bound 10
vote for Haynes, neither is Munger, If
Munger is bound to vote for Haynes so was
John Lowe, Both signed the same paper
and both are really pledged to Haynes. A
pretty mess, truly Let's have another Balm
Hooe and Brandelh pill convention before
long.
