If the Democracy of old Centre, in vonjunctionwith the std lino Whigs, essay to bring about a thorough organization, the rout of Know-Sothingiam, by a great majori ty, will be beyond the possibility of a doubt. It is highly necessary for Oil Democracy oil every township to' proceed to effect an or ganization immediately. Democratic clubs should be formed and all honorable -Divans - 411' to .secore the ?iumph of our party. Our enemy is wiley:,and full of in trigues—he falters not - at the most horrid oaths to accomplish his nefarious ends. Therefore, Demdcrats, and all who love this cherished land, be vigilant, active--work for the great cause that has brought Mac Ifni.. tcd States to the great and mighty stand among the nations of the oarth.
