Dear Sir:-Your name has been
suggested with an expression of COIL
tidence that you would take an active
part in the Presidential campaign Of
this year in your locality, and do all
in your power to prevent our now
prosperous country from falling into
the control of that Rebel Democracy
which, within our time. worked terri
bic devastation through the land.
This Rebel Democracy ,unrepentant,
uncnlightened and persistent, con-
tinucs to force its old idea upon the
country, with the aid of it's mcrcenary
allies of the North, who do not even
assume a principle.
It regards the result of the War Of
the Rebellion as only a check, and
moves on tirelessly, using the terrors
of social and commercial ostracism
for one class, and the rifle club and
shotgun for the other, to the capture
of the Government and the establish
ment of STATE SOVEREIGNTY.
This means eventual war. We want
peace; and we will have it.
An overwhelming defeat this year
will lrcndcr hopeless the "Lost Causc,'
and will afford an opportunity for the
emancipation of the poor whites of
the South, the protection of the
blacks, and the paralysis of the aris-
tocratic few who control that section
and keep the mass of the people in a
state Of shameful ignorance.
The letters and utterances Of the
leaders Of this Democracy in and out
of Congress, the defiant language of
the Southern press, together with in-
formation you possess from other
sources, cannot fail to have convinced
you of this state of affairs. Your CO.
operation can, therefore, bc taken for
granted.
These headquarters arc not ad-
vised whether or not you had the
good fortune to serve in the Union
army or navy during the Rebellion.
In case you did, you are asked to con-
slider the incloscd letter rs addressed
to you personally, and you arc earn
estly prayed to act upon it promptly
and vigorously.
Should you not have so served, you
are respectfully requested to select
the most active, influential and pa
triotic veteran soldier or sailor in
your ward, district or town, and hand
him the letter and documents herein,
urging upon him the need Of imme-
diate organization Of a club, of which
you would naturally become Il prom
inent 'lion orary" member.
In conclusion, you will confer q
favor by replying to this as soon after
receipt as you conveniently can, Civ
ing information of your action.
Very respectfully, dear Sir, your
most obedient servant,
DRAKE DEKAY.

1t will be seen that the organization,
holds itself aloof from either the
Democratic Or Republican parties, SO
that they may extend their support
to the one whose platform of princi-
pies and pledges will best suit their
views.
Though we sincerely believe, THAT
at this particular ,juncturc in Our Ma

citizens to unite their efforts to defeat
the Republicans whose design isplain-
ly that Of overthrowing q government
which has been the pride and boast
Of the American citizen, we ncvcrthe-
less respect honest differences of opiu-
ion. A strict party adherent, it has
been our lot to make an open fight in
our local contests, against opponents
who, also, have fought with vizor
raised, with spirit and determination
which cannot fail atleast, tocommand
certain degree Of admiration.
We trust that tile Grcenbackcrs of
