"Ink drops" nro the production and Eontimcuts of a Christ ian Patriot, and, with tho poetic effu sions, will bo read with interest, and edification. Also, tho artielo sinned (iA democrat." Wo also direct attention to tho unanswerable letter, on same pago, of the Hon. Amos Kendall. Wo publish a livo papan Our friends appreciate its importance. Reading matter rogularly appears upon ovcry pago of tho Columbia Demoerat. Tho Feeling Now Never wcro tho Democracy so earnust or so consolidated as thoy now aro. Not even in tho days of Old Hickory woro they o heartily in earnest, united, and cagor to express their feelings at tho ballot-box Tho tcrriblo realities which surround us as a people, the horrors into which Sec tionalism has plungod tho country, have olimiuated from tho Dcmocrals the last remaining vestige of that unhappy fueling oi dissension which prostrated thorn two years ago as a party , while the monstrous deeds of tho hour,thc gigantic usurpations, the corruption unfolded concerning this infatuated Administration and its parti san army of contractors and jobbors, have aroused and strengthened tho Democrats beyond example. They go together as a unit now. And they will terribly rebuke tho pensioned slanderers who havo dared abuse them so outrageously to assail their character as a party, and to impugn their patriotism. If an election were held to-mor row in Pennsylvania, says the Harrisburg Patriot, the "Democrats would oarry the Stato by 100,000." And wo do not think the estimate too largo. The same feeling prevails in Ohio where (sajs a gontlcman oi a neighboring town, who has just re- turned from a journey through that Stato) the Democrats would to-day sweep the State like a whirlwind,and oleot such an WHOompromUing National man as Vallan- digham by 75,000 to 100,000 majority. I Wo bslicvo it. Pennsylvania, New York, Illinois and Indiana havo shown what tho feeling is. Tho Republican party, like its head at Washington, has proved a tremendous failure It has sunk out of sight iu its own corruption, and the noonlo wait for an opportunity to rebuko its destructive hoadlong fanaticism, which aims at final Separation aud Dictator- ship. And the time is fast coming whin tho epitaph of lhat disastrous organization Btiall bo written. Its brief but torriblc history has' already been written in char- actors of blood. e53sT1i0 Ounknrs aro movinrr all tho powers that bo, to cot clear of any per- sonal or pecuniary responsibility in the troubles they have brought upon the country. Thuir votes havo helped to bring ou tho war, and now they cseapo the draft on conscientious scruples, aud in tho very teeth of tho Constitution, which Van Buiiun, of New York.have lately en says that ''such as conscientiously scruple tered into an abolition co-partnership, to boar arms, shall not be compelled to do Thoy arc now serving their new masters so, but shall pay an equivalent for person- in tho dirty business of traducing loyal al service," they arc moving heaven aud Democrats with a zeal deserving a bet earth to escape tho payment of an cquiv- tcr cau3C with briSat Pr 'Pccts of "poor alcnt.

One of tho candidates of tho Dcmoerats was beaten by two votes, and another by five votes only.

Camp Near Bktj&b Plains, Va., ) March 20th 1863. At a meeting of the Columbia count y Volunteers, of company I, 130th Penn sylvania Regiment, the undersigned com mittee woro appointed to draft resolutions expressive of the feelings and sentiments of the company upon the death of Daniel II. IlUMLEY. WumtESfby the dispensations of Al mighty God, this company has been called upon to mourn over tho death of this young man whose private virtues, heroic endurance, uncomplaining fortitude, and patriotic devotion to his country's good, has endoared him to us in bonds of sym pathy and lovo which can uever bo broken. Tiicrcfjre Resolved, That iu tho death of Daniel II. Hemley, wo have hut a good friend, a true patriot aud n bravo soldier, who won tho respect and esteem of his officers, and a placo in the affections of his compauious-in arins. Revived, That while wo deeply sympa thize with tlio family.relativcs and friends of tho deccased,wo offer for their consola tion tho inspiring consideration that he died in his country's service, and wo trust has gone to that happy land where din of war is not heard, aud tho weary arc at rest. Resolved, That tho editors of tho Columbia county papers be respectfully requested to publish theso proceedings and forward a copy containing tlio same to his parents at Polkvillc, Columbia county, Pa. Tho above preamble and resolutions woro unanimously adopted. Lieut. A. B. Tate, Com'g Co. Thomas Wricuit, A. M. Vansioklg, Geo. Niciiom.s.

Coward-like, he printed a speech the Senator never utteied, and shrinks from re-printing those letters HK did WRITE. Even more : In thin organ of riot and violence, ho denounces law abiding men as "traitors and cnjipeiifads," for daring to exereihe tho right of free discus.-ion, and at tho samo timo insults constitu tional freemen by bearing at the head of his sheet, as in falte motto, "Fri-e Speech, a Free Press, Free Soil ami Freedom " A DEMOCRAT.
