pure it nourishes and clcanses the parts it goes

NOVEMBER THIRD.

Remember that F. P. Blair and the Demo.
cratic platform declare in favor of repudia-
ton and revolution, and that Seymour and
the Democratic party are pledged to carry
out this programme.
Remember that Grant and Colfax are in
favor of peace, and opposed to reputation.
Remember that it was Republican Con-
gress that passed the Pacific Railroad bill.
Remember that it was Republican Con-
gress that passed the National Homestead
Law, giving every actual settler 160 acres of
land, and exempting it from forced sale and
execution.
Remember that it was Republican Ad-
ministration, sustained by the Republican
party, that preserved the Union and Govern
ment for the benefit of the present and future
generations.
Remember that it was a Republican SEN
ate that procured the ratification of treaty
securing protection to our naturalized citi-
zens visiting Europe.
Remember that Republican Senate struck
which proposed to allow Cinnamon to become
naturalized citizens and voters of the United
States
Remember that the last Republican Con-
gress either entirely removed or lessened tax
alton on one thousand different articles of
home manufacture or production, abolished
the Freedmen's Bureau, and cut down public
expenditures many millions of dollars.
Remember that it is safer to trust the
Government in the hands of the party that
preserved it, than to give it over to the con-
troll of those who fought to destroy it,
Reader, think of these facts before you de-
posit your ballot on Tuesday next. Vote for
Grant and Colfax and you vote for your own
interests and the interests of the country.

The Great Issues.

As we will not have another opportunity
of comforting with our readers before the
election, we now desire to impress a few i'm
portant facts upon their minds.
In the contest to be decided at the polls on
Tuesday, the supporters of Grant and Colfax
assume and believe that the late war for the
Union was right and just. They hold to the
doctrine that the Government of the United
States has the right and power to perpetuate
its existence, and protect itself when assault.
ed by armed foes and traitors. They believe
that the soldiers who fought to perpetuate
the Union, and uphold liberty and law,
should be honored in the Republic which
their patriotism and valor saved from de-
struction. They believe that the National
debt should be honestly paid. and that taxa
tion should be reduced as rapidly as possible.
They believe that the laws should be executed
as fully in the South as in the North that
men should be protected in the right of free
speech, free press, and the free exercise of
the right of franchise in the ex-rebel States
just as much as in California
The supporters of Grant and Colfax further
believe that the people who stood faithfully
by the Government in the hour of its dis
tress should be trusted to control and direct
its future destinies and that it is not pru.
dent, just or safe to allow the Government to
fall into the hands of those who fought for
four years to destroy it.
Upon all these issues the Democracy, led
by Seymour, Blair, Forrest, Semmes, Toombs,
etc., take the opposite side from that affirm
ed by the Union party, and boldly and inn
pudently go before the people upon plat
form pledged to reputation, revolution, and
the justification of treason. Voters, reflect,
and take your choice
