been changed. At Tho coming election, tho

out containing the ballot for Judge Of tho
Supreme Court; another labeled 'Cbunty,

tanning the ballots Of oil tho other Offices tc

hostilities ceased, the war was successful on
their part, failure SO far as concerned the
North, and all the loss Of life and cxpcndi-

ing election. Our labors have been earnest,
because, as being among those upon whom
the consequences Of the mismanagement Of
the party in power press heavily, VIC have o
lively appreciation Of the necessity Of being
restored to the old fashioned rule Of ccono.
my and equal rights. Taxes press heavily
enough upon all, but, as things stand, the
poor man finds it more difficult to pay his
proportion, insignificant though it may be
in amount, than the rich man and to the
former class We belong, and their interests
we have had especially in view. Not tha,
the interests of the rich should be neglected
but the army OF milionarcs can protect
themselves pretty effectually behind their
breast work of greenbacks.

only say, do your duty.

ALL friends of the Constitution and Union
will vote the Democratic Ticket the Tick.
ct seen at the masthead OF this paper-the
proper place to look for Ticket, aud where
it will be found in all County, local, political
organs. In other Journals it is inserted, il
at ALL as paid advertising, and III no o.le,
,cay. That is not the case in County papers.
The old custom is good one and has no,
gel been changed in any of the County,
weekly, Democratic papers throughout the
State. What would a party think Of their
journal, if, after the formation of n Ticket,
it did not PIT 1t up at all. The paper
would be denounced as spurious, fshy, no,
sound in the faith, and looked upon as pre-.
ferring some other Ticket, but not having
sufficient courage to hoist it. On the other
hand, when Ticket is showed about through
a paper, among advertising and at the same
time not marked as such, what conclusion
does the common reader come to? Why
that the paper, for some reason, does no,
give that Ticket hearty support. New
styles these times may answer certain partie.
but they will not answer the old fashioned
Denocr"cy.
