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 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.

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 success be h t s e i i i i: t settled urestorestme to the late re he t, arms supremacy ill the government of the States and the nation ; and that all that was lost by rebel defeat on the hat tle-lield shall be regained the election of the Democratic candidates. 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 GRANT AND COLFAX.—Augusta (Ga.)
