Tuesday, the Sth of November.

The record has been made up. The
questions involved in this political cam
paign have been discussed thoroughly, or
partially, as the circumstances of the case,
OF the ability of the speakers and writers,
determined. The time for argument has
virtually ended, and the case is about to be
given to that great jury from whose YER
dict there is no appeal. The tribunal of
public opinion, though not correct at all
times in its determination of questions, yet
its decision is final, until reversed by its
own deliberate Judgment and acts. On
Tuesday next the question goes to that great
Jury, in whose hands rests the liberty and
future prosperity Of the nation. We, as
Republicans, and believing in the God APP
pointed right of Government by the people
believe also that our appeals in behalf of
universal suffrage, of equal and exact JUS
tice to all, and the right of every citizen to
participate, through the ballot-boX, in
making and sustaining the laws which
constitute y common government, have
been unanswered and are unanswerable. 1t
now remains with the people to give their
expression in favor of the liberal, the just,
and humane doctrines of the Republican
party; or their voice in behalf of the blind
preiudices and all uncharitableness of the
Democratic party, whose scope OF argu-
ment proves them skeptics and unbelievers
in the infinite wisdom and infinite goodness
of the Divine maker and ruler of the uni
verse.
The last act in the great national work
which grew out Of the madness of the
slave Democracy is, on the Sth of this
month, to be completed. The blow aimed
to perpetuatc human bondage throughout
the world, under the guiding hand Of God,
severed the chain which bound the last
slave in Christendom, and he rose up, by
the virtue of Republican institutions, to
the position in this government which his
Creator had assigned him in the human
family. free and independent creature.
At every step the so-called Democracy
have opposed this great work which makes
all men free and equal before the law. In
this ignoble cause they have worked with
an energy worthy of better cause. Their
efforts in this State and this county have
been mainly directed to firing prejudice
against the colored people and denying
their right to vote. But the question is
narrowed down to this: They will vote
henceforth and forever! 1t is believed by
the Democrats they will vote the Republi-
can ticket this Fall almost solid, and they
make this plea for appealing to Republi-
cans to leave their party and join the
Democracy. But since the colored man
must vote, and will. what Republican
would be silly enough to vote wrong be-
cause the colored men determine to vote
right We cannot think there are any
such fools, although the Democratic speak
ers seem to think there are.
Let every voter in the Republican party
go to the polls on next Tuesday. Remember
that one vote often elects Il candidate. In
Pennsylvania, at the recent election. %
votes elected three Congrcssmcn-one had
a majority of 15 one Ii, and the third 2I
This shows the Importance of every Re
publican going to the polls.

The DeSDerati0n of DESPAIR.

The Copper-head office-holders of this
State are shaking in their shoes. The
brave and triumphant canvass made by II.
r. Torbert: Esq, on this shore the present
Fall, and the enthusiasm which has greeted
him everywhere has created the most pro-
holding Democrats, and they have labored
with an ncessant zeal to avert their I'M
pending fate. TIE Office holders OF this
county have been taxed Hberal2y to furnish
funds to carry on the campaign, and about
Elkton they have kept up a lively footing
with brass horns. The array of speakers
has been somewhat formidable in numbers
and they have been specially gracious to
what they call CONSERVATIVES what
ever that may mean. We never have been
able TO ascertain its sense, and have settled
into the belief that the correct photography
is Consideration. Men who left the itepuo
lican party and joined tie Democracy for
consideratioa constituting the bulk Of THEN
unsteady allies as Swami terms the
Conservatives.
These Consideration men have been ap-
pealed to as men were never bcsought
before, to stand by the sinking Democracy
And with near a thousand colored voters
registered in Cecil county and eleven thous-
and in this Congressional District, whom
they feel morally certain will vote the
Republican ticket solid, that party has
cause for fear and trembling; and il the
Republicans don't sweep this county and
the whole shore, it is their own fault. All
they have to do is to turn out at the cleo
ton and see that every Republican who
can vote is out.
The people of Maryland undertheirpresent
oppressors have been plundered as never
the people of the State were before.
A new constitution was created by the
rebel party when they attained power
with the direct purpose of providing offices
for that hungry crowd. Men who had
riskcd all in the rebellion and become bank
rupt, had to be provided for out of the
Treasury and at q single session of the
Legislature the Democratic party plumber
ed the State of $4,000, 900 to feed this
furnishing, bankrupt span who had escaped
the wreck of the rebellion. The people
are tired of this rule. They are taxed this
day i'll Maryland under Democratic govern
ment as they never have been taxed before,
as they never were taxed under Republican
government when that party were complied
to IA Use large sums for war purposes.

A Final WGrd.

The Republicans of this county, for sew
eral elections, have been very remiss in
turning ont to the polls. We trust this
apathy will continue no longer. If you
wish the triumph of the Principles of your
party, you must support its candidates.
If you desire to see the Administration of
General Grant supported, you must vote
for the Republican candidate for Congress.
If YOU desire the rebel rule to terminate in
this State, you must vote it down You
cannot do that by neglecting to go to the
elections. You have an untlinching candi-
date now i'll the field, who has never bated
one iot or title his opposition to the false
Democracy. Turn out and vote for him
on Tuesday next. You owe it to your
conscience, to your Government. to your
State, to do So Success is certain if the
Republican party do their duty. Our tri-
umph at the approaching election will be the
certain forerunner Of the final overthrow of
the mongrel mixture which compose the
Copperhead party of Cecil, which incon-
gruous mass is only held together by the
adhesive cement of official patronage.
From thirty to fifty thousand dollars are
wasted annually upon the roads Of the
county by Democratic Supervisors, and
every stone that jams your carriage wheels
is n witness against their extravaganza
and unfalthfulness. And this is but 4 sim
gle item in the long catalogue of gnilt
which that party has hcaped up. 1t must
be swept from power, OF the taxpayers
will be beggard. Look at their Judiciary,
which saddles on the State the expense of
three Judges. where one, under the Repub-
lican regimen, did the business. Look
where you will in the State, and behold the
robberies that party have perretrated, and
are still perpetrating, upon the Treasury.

The DUE. War.

The Duck War, at IIavre de Grace, be-
tween the "Oyster Navy and Ilavre de

heroism of the 90 Navy" Notwthstand-
ing the stringent law, passed by the last
session, requiring the "Oyster Navy : to
suppress the IIavrc dc Grace gunners, the
professional sportsmen of that town made
their usual preparations for the season,
and when the concerted day arrived, pro-
cectled to anchor their sink-boats out on
the flats and lay out their decoys. On
Monday last, if we are informed properly as
to the day, the Navy made its appear
ance. and actually ran one poaching gem
tleman ashore. Report says when he
threatened to fire on his pursuers, but the
Captain of the pursuing force begged him
not to shoot, that it was not his purpose to
arrest him or capture his boat, that, in
short, they had come TO 'carn Mcn not to

up the usual fire Oh the ducks all day, kill

"Navy" didn't make its appearance, and
the IIavre de Grace men say that they ran
the valiant Captain and his dauntless crue,
with their was vessels, off.
Another theory is, that the Navy

mississippi is prospecting far more than
any other Southern State. Saved to the
Republican party last year by the prompt
action Of General Grant, under the Repub-
lican administration of Governor Alcorn,
all the varied industries of the State are
progressing tremendously, and better
feeling is growing among the people. Its
towns and cities are rapidly increasing in
population and business, and immigration,
