Democratic Talk.

The Old Guard, an organ of New
York copperheadism, sheds ray of
light upon the ideas of the party in
the following sentences:
abraham Lincoln was, without
doubt, the most fatal man that ever
lived upon this earth, and in four
brief years did more evil to mankind
than the worst man that ever lived
accomplished in a lifetime. The
cause he led is the most unnatural,
.impious, and sinful that has ever af-
'fiicted the world, and the means of
its accomplishment the yilest, most
dishonest, and devlish that ever de-
graded our race or stained the earth
since time began.
On the contrary, the real Though
not assumed cause led by Jefferson
Davis, is the noblest, most benifcent,
true and glorious cause that man
ever battled for on this earth, and
the means employed were the grand
est, most Christian and chivalrous
ever witnessed in the worlds his.
tory.
Can Union soldiers endorse that?

E The question of successor
to Mr.. WADE in the u. S. Senate, is
still the prominent topic of discus
sion in democratic circles. 1t Is yet
doubtful who will be the fortunate
individual. 1t is so long since the
party have had nib at the publlc
crib, that there is no want of material
for the position. Friends of Thur
man, who have canvassed the Legis-
lature, state that, of the newly elect
ed Senators, Vallandigham has one
vote, end of Representatives fourteen
votes, and that three are doubtful,
leaving Thurman fifty six votes in
the democratic caucus, to nineteen
for all others. Vallandigham's
friends, of course, count differently.
To Union men it makes no difference
which Is selected. They are both in
favor of the return Of rebles to place
and power, with no guarantees for
their future good behaviour favor
Of blotting out all distinction between
those who fought to preserve the
government and those who fought to
destroy it. Union men do not be-
lieve in any such policy. They be-
lieve patriotism should be rewarded
and treason punished, and hence
would not have either if they could
avoid it; but they cannot, and, as we
are to have representative of dem
ocratic policy it makes no differ
ence to Union men whether that rep
resentative is Thurman, Vallandig-
ham, Pendleton, or any o.her man,
whose sympathies were with the
rebels in their war upon the Govern
ment.

~ We stated last week that the

Marshal and the Sheriff of Hamilton
County, had been sold to Captain W.
A. Adams for about So, 900 Captain
Adams was the highest bidder at the
sale mentioned, and the boat was
knocked off to him, but for some
reason he did not claim title, and the
Marshal yesterday sought out the
next highest bidders, who were will

EF A democrat like Mr.. ONDER-
DoNK, who don't wear patched
breeches," has right to contest the
election of his opponent. But Mr..
GIBSON, poor man, who does wear
'.patched breeches," has no such
rights. That is the logic of the Dis
patch in its attack on Mr.. GIBSON
In other words, a man with "patched
breeches," though honest, is to be
denied equal political rights with q
nelghbor, simply because that neigh
Dor has a little more money and
wears n"patched breeches," De-
mocracy used to mean, "equal rights
to ALL" but since the present leaders
got to running the machine it has
changed sides on great many ques
tions besides that.

~ The La Crosse Democrat
"Brick Pomeroy's sheet"-is said to
have the largest circulation of any
democratic newspaper in the United
States. This is proof of is accepta-
bility to that party. They take and
read it because they believe in its
principles. Even in Gallia county it
is largely taken, and the party look
upon it as the standard of "pure de
mocracy." We make quotation
from one of its late issues, in order
that the Union men of this county
may know what ''pure democracy"
Is, and to whom it extends all its
sympathies. Here it is:
rebellion a crime! Liar in your
throat, Phil. Sheridan. Every hour
justifies the acts of those who, from
Bull Run to Richmond, through four
years of battle and blood, sacrifices
and struggles, labored. suffered,
fought. died for the cause of civil
freedom. Every passing day proved
the seundness of their judgment, the
wisdom of those who strove for in
dependence. Every revolving year
makes the lost cause more sacred to
the lovers of liberty, dearer to the
hearts of those who were faithful to
it from its inception to its temporary
fall"
Every one who, in the language of
Gen. Sheridan, says the rebellion
was a crime" is a LIAR! Every
soldier, who went forth to battle for
his country, honestly believing "re-
bellion to be q crime" is LIAR
Soldiers--Union men-is that true?
Are you all LIARS? Or, is it not,
rather, that democracy" is the same
now that it was during the war, the
friend and endorser of rebels and re-
bellion, and the enemy and villifier
of those who stood by the Govern,
ment in its hour of peril?

1- The Lancaster (Pa.. Express
says it has learned from two trust
worthy and well informed scorces,
that Gen. Grant VIII make such a de-
claration of his views of national policy
as ought to, and no doubt will, satisfy
the most exacting Republican, and
fully vindicate those who have express
ed ther willingness to trust him now,
as they trusted him in the dark days
of our national peril. Gen. Grant, in
conversation with two representative
Republicans, in whose Radicalism the
party has unlimited confidence, has
frequently expressed himself in man
ner entirely satisfactory to them, and
they confidently look to him as the man
for the impending crisis.

4 Model Democrat.

Kentucky is the State in which to
find model democrats. They are not
afraid to speak forth their true senti-
ments, for democracy there is alike
the same with voter and candidate.
A. S. BRUNER, of Clarke County, is a
pure specimen of the pure kind. He
wants the office of Circuit Court
Clerk, and has issued a card announ-
cling himself as q candidate, and also
defining his position. We make a
few short extracts from it in order to
show what democracy" is in Ken
lucky, which the Dispatch endorses
as genuine. This model democrat
says:
AS for the rebellion lost nothing
except the use of my left ankle by q
Yankee ball, at the battle of Greasy
Creek. What little money and prop
erty 1 had, 1 gave it all to the. Con
federate cause, and if had ten times
as much more ] would have given it
cheerfully.
He appeals only to Confederate
soldiers for votes, and to them, as an
inducement for their support, he
says:
For the cause that you espoused /
was wounded at the battle of Greasy
Creek, and for which / am cripple
for life. No one knows my suffer
ings. / laid nine days and nights
without sleeping one moment, ex-
ceptlng to loose my foot by ampu-
tation. In six weeks l mounted my
horse and made the raid through In
diana and Ohio, riding sideways and
carrying my crutches, to be with my
company. was captured and put
in the Ohio Penitentiary, was shaved
and suffered every modification that
Yankee tyranny could think of; even
was tantalized by being told every
day that / was to be shot or hung;
they even refused to- let me write
home.
To show that his democracyis pure
hs offers the following:
AS for my politics, I will just say
that I never have voted for any per-
son against o Democratic candidate,
regardless of neighbors, friends and
relations.
And, for fear that that would
not be enough to establish his de-
mocracy, he says further:
l will not vote for any man that
has been in the Yankee army for the
purpose of subjugating the South.
Thatis sufficient Mr. BRUNER may
be considered a "National" demo-
crat! We presume the Dispatch will
endorse him as such, especially as
its ssgreenback scheme" is thus
adopted as part Of his political
laith:
/ am also in favor of paying off the
bonds in greenbaeks, and if that will
not do, pay them the same way that
they paid us fer our negroes.
That is Kentucky democracy, and,
as the article is the same everywhere,
of course it is 'Ohio democracy; al
though here, being in the minority,
aud wishing few Union votes to in
sure success to their ticket, they are
not SO bold and outspoken as in Ken
tucky.

E Such items as the following,
show better than anything else, the
true meaning of democratic victo-
ries." The rebels look upon such
things as q defeat of their late foes
in the field. Soldiers will make a
note Of that;
When the Intelligence of the re-
suit of the Pennsylvania and Ohio
elections reached Montgomery, Ala
bama, the old Irish news agent there
ran along the streets with the morn
ing papers, crying out, "Good news
for the rebels, good news for the
best ! have had since the
time they defeated the Yankees, dur
ing the war;"

cious and unjustitiable attack on Mr..

fer, from reading of the article,
that the writer thinks no one but

: ~ The democrats. this fall have
carried eight States, giving them,
should they be successful in the
same States next fall, SO votes in the

have carried the balance, giving
them 149 votes in the electoral col
lege. OF course, we have not in

to vote prior to the Presidential
election, they will count so votes in
