TO THE LAROKING MEy

quite large number of our Ger.
man and Irish citizens have inyari.
ABLY voted the straight Democratic
ticket. Not being fully conversan,
with the principles of that party, the
name has had great effect. Now
that the party has dropped its name
as it did long time since all dem.
.ocratic principles. these men, who If
not able to express themselves in
pure English, have begun to think
clearly and will act forcibly. They
now see that by the adoption of the
policy OF our unfortunate President.
the Democracy have stultihed them
selves-have denied their own doc
trines SO long taught by the leaders
oil the party, and that to follow them
longer would be detrimental to their
interests rs citizens and as laborers.
The idea that the present policy OF
the e"Democratic" party under its II W
leader, President johnson, will pre-.
vent the negro from coming North
and entering into competition with
the laboring class here, is absurd -
Their every act tends TO drive them
from the South. The negro, not be
ing prevented as heretofore from 90
ing of the plantation, can travel JUS,
where he plcases, and what would b,
more natural than that he should di
rect his course Northward to escap,
ch'persecution as was perpetrated
ut Memphis and New Orleans. Ii
no case has their rights been re
spected, and having been taught tha
the majority of the people of thu
North were friendly to them, they o
course will make their way to a plac,
of safety.
On the other hand, il the Unioi
party triumphs, the blacks will re
ceive the protection to which the,
are entitled, and the climate OF theil
native South being better adapted
to their nature than that of the North
they will remain.
Look at this matter carefully
Note the action and prosecutions o
the opposition, aud you will at ono
see that, aside from all prejudice 0
love for the negro, the onl
safeguard against emigration OF ne
groes, by thousands, is to support tn
party which guarantees them pro
lection in the country where the
were born.

The Cincinnati Gazette we'll says
that in Union there is strength. We
have never known petty Disagree

view Of the great interests at stake,
than during the present campaign.-
There may BIO some, however, who,

reasons, are not heart and soul in the
nations work. If there are such, lei
them remember that, il 1t Is glorious
even to die for ones country, 1t ID

sacrifice. Sec first that the public

his oath of fidelity to the United

upon this soil, lie demanded the full
