peaceful homes. We looked upon it un'
moved and unblanched But we can bear
it no longer We will now, at all hazards,
recover our lost liberties and restore the
State. We are in the midst of great revo-
luton, which may end peacefully at the bal
lot box; but if not, then the true men OF
the South will rally once more around their
now folded banner, and will try the issue at
the cartridge box. There are men in the
North who are now truly with you, and who
will in such conflict, if necessary, lead
your battalions. We did not make the other
war; it was forced upon u.s.
"Governor Swami, of Maryland, declared
in recent speech to Democratic meeting

itary arm which now protects him, his sun
will go down in darkness and oppression. ~

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 9, 1868.
ct. l.. Tulloci, Secretary National Union
Committee:
I" Ny home in St. Francisville was mob
bed by armed Democrats on the 10th of
August. They said they wanted to wash
their hands in my blood and would have
my life. They leveled their guns at my wife,
and threw burning torches upon my gallery.

KENTUcKY's LOYALTY.
The Louisville Journal says:
" Hampton, Forrest, and Lee are acces-
sions to the Democratic party. They are
like mile-p posts along the Democratic high
way that leads through the South, denoting
the direction and distances to state Of real
peace and union. We are proud of them :;
and we present them with confidence to the
people of the North, and we say, Here are
our trophies They are worth all the bu-
reaus and carpet bags and negro militia and
collectors and petty military tyrants and
greasy contractors and fat bond holders that
a corrupt Congress can manufacture between
this and doomsday."
| CONGRESS MUST BE DESTROYED.
The great Democratic party will rise in
its might and majesty and pulverize and
purge the Congress, just as Cromwell purged
the long Parliament. The signs of the times
are pregnant with resistance to Radical ty-
ranny, and the dagger of Brutus may aid in
accomplishing our redemption from Radical
rule, ruin, and usurpation. Tribune.
! 81 love the American flag as dearly as
any other man SO long as it represents
Government in the hands of the Democratic
party, and no longer. Capt. I. Ryuders.
MORE BLOOD LETTING DEMANDED.
"We know there are many Democrats at
the North, including some distinguished sol
diers, who believe that the political atmos-
phere, poisoned by the long reign of Radi
cal despotism, will not be SO purified that
liberty may flourish on it, until just chas-
tisement is inflicted upon the daring men
who have conspired against the freedom of
the nation. In other words, that the coun-
ter-revolution will not be complete without
more blood letting. "-Nobile Register.
The rebel General J. T. L. Sneed, in a
speech before the Central Democratic Club
of Memphis, declared: g am for peace-I
want peace-again, and if single outrage
is committed like that of young Brown, |
am for utterly destroying and wiping out
every member of the Radical party in this
State
ExTERMINATE THE NEGRO.
With the skull and cross bones of the
lost cause before US, we will swear that
this is white mans government. We must
make the negro understand we are the men
we were when we held him in abject bon
| dage, and to make him feel that when for
| bearance ceases to be virtue he has aroused
a power that will control him or destroy
him. MERIDIAN Miss Mercury.
"The niger and the white man are not
likely to agree, unless the niger yields to
the white mans views, which he can do or
die. He has not the intellect, and the white
men, who outnumber them five to one, will
never, no never, consent to be his bond
men or his inferior in any sense"
CoLoRED MEN NOT TO VOTE.
In conclusion I have few plain words
for the colored people-directly to them
truthfully, if not agreeaby, 1 have a right to
advise them, because l am their friend
They know l am. l say to them, then, you
cannot and will not be permitted to partici-
pate permanently and substantially in the
political power of this country, or any part
of it. Remember what l say. This is the
white mans country ); it is his government,
and he intends to keep both. You cannot
and will not hold either, nor will either be
held by others for you. 81. B. Campbell,
at Charleston Democratic Contention.
| REBEL FAITH IN NOTIIERN DEMOCRATS
"Comrades, brothers, year after year you
bore the confederate flag through fire and
tempest, and upon more than two hundred
battle fields covered it with glory. Your
imperishable glories are intrenched in the
impregnable fortresses of the past, and no
power can dim their effulgence. What
though your flag went down bathed in wo-
man s concentrated tears, and baptized in
the best blood of the nation? The Demo
cratic party offers the most honorable terms
1t endorses principles for which you bat
tied. From speech delivered by Gener-
al Cullen A Battle, of the confederate army,
in Mobile, at the Democratic grand rally,
Monday, August 10. ~~-
81 give my hearty support to Seymour
and Blair because the latter is pledged in
favor of the cause ofthe South by military
power, while Governor Seymour is too well
known as an uncompromsing champion of
our rights to require endorsement from any
