wanted at tho feast, they had no heart to
prepare the viands--th election Of the Re-
publican candidate was the result. Nv. Val
landigham refused to go farther. No man
could pleasantly kiss the foot that had kick

nothing to gain If ected'-he telegraph

e"IIave you heard from the sth District
Now you may go to hell once I" ,aat3.A
To tho ones who broke faith with the
working, victorious Democracy Of that State
is this defeat in the sth District chargable.
You cannot long betray and insult your best
friends. Had Vallandigham been sent to
the Senate. Pendleton could have carried
Ohio, Thurman been the next Governor,
and our victory for '6S would to-day have
been won! But the battle is now to be
fought over again, and we are worse off in
Ohio than We were in October. Neither
Pendleton or Vallandigham could carry that
State to-day, nor this year, for any Office
Having been sold, betrayed, and cheated,
the people will not kiss the rod that smote
them, nor would the timid Democrats dare
vote for Vallandipham, And there the pot
that had three legs under it three months
since is now leaning on but two, and neither
one with confidence in the other! .t ..
In this matter We stand by principles. We
do not like to see brave man sacrificed =
Vallandigham's crime is that he always has
been a Democrat. He has never forsaken
his faith nor the people, His home bears
many a mark Of mob violence - he has re-
sisted many offers made by Lincoln to sell
his principles he has always stood by the
people, the rights Of States the prosperity
Of the people-the Uhite men Of the coun-
try. This is the offence nothing more. He
is loved by the people-tor he is true to
them. Lately brutaly assailed by pro-
fessed Democratic paper, he has no word of
complaint. We care nothing for Vallandlg-
ham. 1t is u question Of principle. 1t is
whether brave men are to he killed as offer
ings to enemies. The Democracy of Val
landigham is above suslicion--that of bis
assailant is not. We would see the next
President white man and Democrat,
working for white men and Democracy. We
care not who that man is, if he will only be
true to principle. We would vote for our
most bitter personal enemy If he were only
true to principle, and could be relied on in
time Of danger to defend his principles and
the people. ;f -'.t a... "." ...-
Itiswith this feeling we step between the
brave Democrat Of Ohio who is guilty Of no
crime or betrayal Of friends, with our little
army Of over hundred thousand brave men
and shall protect him, for in so doing we
protect our principles -i' '-" p'i .''
The World struck cowardly blow But
the victim is not reached by it. Its mask
Is thrown off too soon-but better that it
came off than be born longer to decoy and
delude honest people. THANK Gop the
day has passed when venal newspapers, al
ways in the market,can sell principle for pol.
icy. The arm Of all these aiders Of usurpa-
ton is growing shorter to strike down as
ours is growing longer and stronger to strike
up and strike back! ED $50 -''o. 7'fl9. W
