THE DEMOCRACY.

To the readers Of the APPEAL we have
already given the addresses Of the De-
/ mocracy of Ohio and Indiana ard CT :
| Executive Committee CT Tammsny Han,
New York. This morning we print On
our first page, the address of the National
Democratic COMMITTEES, end those Of the
Central Democratic Committees OF Penn
sylvaniS and Illinois.
The cheerful tone Of these documents,
emanating from men high up on the
| Democratic lookout" are among he
most hopeful indications Of the success
Of our party that we eau or could offer,
il we except the mastery speech Of Gov.
SEYMOUR, given in our Geographic col
umns yesterday. Candid in their state
ment of the situation and Of the results Of
the late election, these addresses indicate,
ia terus Is plaia as day the wsy to thevic-
tory for which we are pledged to struggle.
The Wstchful leaders Of the people,
animated by a spirit OF unfaitering hdel-
ity to their trust, have scanned the
political horizon, so lately obscuIe1
by confusion emansting from Or po-
Iitical center, aud discerning the evil

ton Of the members of the party, moi
only in their own States, but every
where throughout the Union, to secure
the glorious result. They urge that the
Democratic column shsll continue to
move on steadily and persisleutly.
They urge that, shoulder TO shoulder, the
soldiers Of the grand old army OF tie
Democracy shall move to the front, AID
with unyieldlng courage encounter aud
rOut q foe that has too long reveled in
the citadel OF liberty.

Having reduced that strength in o
struggle in great part made upon local
issues, they are confident that when
in November they contend with
opponents upon the square
issues between SEYMOUR aud GRANT, !
they must, they cannot fail to
come off more than conquerors, and
sweep away every vestlge Of Radical
msjorities.
With such animated and aDimsting
examples before US, we in Tennessee
should feel encouraged, should feel that
the day Of our political redemption has
not been postponed, but that, through
The generous help and energy o; our
Of the North and Northwest, ii is
