THE Democracy of this county has
placed itself in a most deplorable
position in this campaign. Its lead
ers went over to the Greenback falla-
CIV, in fact claimed their doctrines as
peculiarly their OVID, bid for the sup
port Of the rev party, traded with it
in the matter Of nominations, and
abandoned their own distinctive pol
icy il order that with the help of the
Greenback vote, they might defeat
the Republicans. They abandoned
old standards, repudiated time honor
ed and sound fnancial principles, and
made common cause with the agita-
tors who aim at destroying the credit
of the country and fastening upon it
an inflated and irredeemable legal
tender currency. They deliberately
determined to prefer disgrace to de-
feat, dishonor 10 principle, success to
every other consideration, aud in
their recklessness proved themselves
such arraut demagogues, that the
party they expected to capture, has
repudiated them with contempt, re-
.jected all their advances, and placed
its own candidate for Congress in the
field.
Nothing has ever occurred in cur
local politics more calculated to excite
disgust among intelligent men, than
this surrender of every principle here
tofore claimed for the Democratic
party, by its Congressional candidate
and leaders. Practically they have
demorslized their party beyond re-
covery. in relation to the.all import
ant questions Of the day, and staUnch
