PomEitoY, in his last issue
(La Crosse Democrat) says he "is now
and always has been, a strict temperance
man ; that he uses no intoxicating drinks
whatever. Nor will he employ, in any ca
pacity, a man who indulges in fits of intox
ication." If it is true that lie is'a strict tem
perance man,' and that the vile obscene
and profane reading matter with which
his paper is lilted week after week, is
not the result of strong drink, then we
arc forced to the conclusion that he is by
nature a beast and nothing else.
KENTUCKY gave eight thousand
Democratic majority. They will also
carry, by corresponding majorities, the
Five Points, Bedford street, Sing Sing
and the Eastern Penitentiary. The
chosen homes of the Democracy are
ulcers on the body politic.
SEYMOUR, though rich like Buchanan,
never invested a dollar in governmen
bonds when the fate of the nation de
pended upon finding means to pay.

You are promised liberty by the leafl

oppressors ? Who among you dare to
speak or write what he thinks terainst
the tyranny which has robbed you of your
property, imprisoned your sons, dray
you to the field of battle, and is daily
deluging your country with bkaal?
Your country once was happy, and had
the proffered peace been embraced, the
last two years of misery had been spent
in peace and plenty, and repairing the
desolation of [lie quarrel that would
have set the interests of Great Britain
and America in It true light, and cemented
their friendships.

cans in the attainment of peace, liberty
and safety, the first objects in taking the
field.
What is America but a laud of widows,
orphans and beggars ? lint what need
of argument to such as feel infinitely
more misery than tongue can express ?
I give my promise of the most affection
ate welcome to all who are disposed to
join me in measures necessary to close
the scenes of our afflictions, which must
increase until we are satisfied with the
liberality of the mother country, which
still offers us protection and exemption
from all taxes but such as we think lit to
impose upon ourselves.

:\tr. Seymour meant when, toward the
close ttf his speech. lie asserted,
' views came front our fathers." They
are the views which the Tory fathers,
thromdi their executor, Benedict Arnold,
bequeathed to then. Copperhead offspring.
The truth is that Treason, and its twin
brother, Faction. tlways speak substan
tially the sante language, only just so
mac h altered as to suit the particular
circumstances of each time. The human
heart is ever the aante, and so are the
prime eleinents that move human affairs.
As long as there is malice in the human
blood, no Government call be without
its rene!rades and malcontents ; and these
:we always ready. .ItHlas-like, to seize
upon every occasion of offence. No mat

sity, spite will assail it, and often too on
very plausible grounds.
Every condition of ciyil life loan its bur

the malignant to turn these to their own
account. Tltc state of war especially
!dyes this facility. It, of necessity, in

First. That the Democratic party forced
upon the country and the Republican
Administration an expemlitti re of more
than Four Thousand Millions of Treasure.
.4econd. That the rebellion Was begun
for the express purpose of twerthrowing
Republican Institutions, and establishing
upon their ruins titSlaveholding oligarchy:
and, that all the burdens of national tax
ation, p.xst, present, and prospective, are
the necessary consequences of the Dem
ocratic rebellion.
Third. That the vast sacrztice of life on
the battle-lied], and in the hospitals and
prisons, is
,justly changeable to the trea
sonable action and purposes of the Dem
ocratic leaders.
Fourth. That in preparation for this
rebellion, the whole power of the last
Democratic! Administration was exhaust
ed, the public Treasury plundered, the
Navy scattered or d:smantled, and the
Army placed under commancl of traitors,
and quartered beyond the reach of the
incoming Administration, and within the
territories of the contemplated revolu
tionary government.
Fifth. That all these acts were done in
obedience to the orders of the Demo
cratic conspirators, and by the advice
and with the approval of the Democratic
leaders in every section of the country.
Sixth. That these same leaders con
trolled the late Democratic Nominating
Convention, dictated its platform, and
designated its candidates.
Seventh. That these same leaders, by
their public orators and press, declare it
topolicy that Democratic

Eight. That they, the Democratic
leaders, promise duly, as the consequence
of their triumph, the renewal of the war,
the destruction of the reorganized States,
and the overthrow of the Popular repre
sentative branch of the Government, or
its subjection to executive will and dicta
tion.
TILE Democrats are getting up big
barbecues in different parts of the State,
where the leaders induce the white men
to eat at the same table and pick the
same bones with the colored men. What
will not a Democrat do for office ? Yet
the darkies will fool them. They will
eat their meat, drink their whiskey, hallo
for Seymour and Blair, and—vote for
