Less than ten years ago, Governor Joe

Considerably less than ten years ago, Gen.

lucrative position in New Orleans
Ten years ago, Ben. Butler, at the Charles

HANCOCK COUNTY Non
ROUSE UP.

Next Monday will be the day of election.
We desire that our friends shall appreciate its
Importance. As we have before said, the cir
cumstanccs are favorable to the Democracy
There have been no appeals to passion or
prejudice, like those which have marked for
mer occasions of the kind. Men have been
left free to see, reflect and decide for them
sclves-and such surroundings Of an election
are always favorable 10 the kindly and con-
sentative principles OF Democracy.
The issues presented are few, simple, and
easily understood.
First. Determined and undyins hostility
to the glazing wrongs peIpetrated on the in
dustrial classes by the financial measures of
the administration-thc bond-excmption
special gold payments, and pet National Bank
swindles.
Second. Opposition to the high tariff
schemes, which take millions from the pockets
OF the poor consumers Of products, and trans
fer them to the bank accounts of rich manu-
facturcrs and monopollstS.
Third Opposition to the crushing taxation
which is pressing the life out of the great ship
building industry of Maine.
Fourth demand for uniform currency
for all classes 4 protest against paying
the laborcr, farmer and artzan in deprecated
paper. while the bondholder receives gold.
Fifth A place in the Union for every state,
with equal rights and obligation for each and
ali of them, n orth South, East and West.
These are the few simple, direct and square
propositions upon which the Democracy ap-
peal to the people AS compared with them,
the crude and erroneous notions presented by
our opponents are as foam on the shore or
stubblc in the flame. These are questions
that all, even the humblest man can under
stand. When he sees that his rich neighbor
pays no tax, and that his own is increased in
consequence is a fact that comes home to
him. He feels it in that sensitive spot, his
pocket. His meat barrel feels it. The cloth
ing of his wife and children feel it. When
he sees his bondholding neighbor chinking the
yellow gold Just received Us interest on his
bonds, while the day Of toll he has Just finish
ed is paid with 4 currency worth but two
thirds the rate of gold, he understands that
also, and he and those dependent on him feel
it.
Not less in degree, but not so directly trace
able, are the wrongs inflicted by the tariff.
taxation, and the separation Of the States.
1t is against each and all of these that the
Democracy invite their fellow citizens to vote
on MONDAY next. And they invite them, not
with hatred and passion, but calmly and as
reasonable men, who know their rights and
understand their wrongs.
Let the Democracy take pains to get to the
polls those whose eyes have been opened to
these wrongs, and we shall see a sweeping
victory for the Democratic ticket on Monday
next. We are much nearer to ii than our
friends generally suppose.

not repaid the lIichborns Roberts and j. W.

OF course you couldn't look them in the face

shame. About this time Your eyes must have
got another twist, or your mouth another nip

did it.
You had to 90 over the Harris hanging

Your alarm about destroying the temperance
