THE DEMOCRAT.
rcni-Tsirnr wekklv by T. PLATT MCDONALD. :::::::: Editor. PLYMOUTH, INDIANA: Thursday, May Our, 1SC1. Don't like -Oar Position." The Republican, of last week, comes out with a lengthy article on the position which we took a week previous. In referring to his comments, we shall not attempt to do so seriatem, but will refer to them in general terms. He prefaces his remarks with his stereotyped grunting about the authorship of our editorials. We care nothing about such complainings, and only refer to it to show our readers what a brave, manly cotemporary we have to deal with. The first thin;; noticeable in his article is, that he don't like our position. This is something very strange, and calculated to excite great wonder. It we should write anything of a general political nature to please him, it would be prima facia evidence to us that it was wrong. In this instance he assumes a position for us which ws did not take, namely: that the election of Lincoln by the Republicans, wa3 the cause of our present troubles. And in this assumption lies the rock on which he fjun lered. We staled no such thing, neither did we intimate it. Our btatement was that the Republican party was responsible for our national troubles, but we did not mention the election of Lincoln, or any other particular act as being the cause. If we had fully realized the Republican editor's obtusenjss, -e might have particularized for his especial benefit ; but a3 the readers ot th Democrat aie intelligent, and well posted i:i the political history of the country for the past few years, we thought to tpeak cf the matter iu general teims would be sufficient, and each one would natu.-allv refer to tho John Brown raid to the enactment of personal liberty bills in two-thirds of the free States, for the purpose of cheating Southern people out of their rights to the armed mobs to prevent the execution of Constitutional laws, and slyly winked at by the Republicans to the organization of societies in the North for the puiposo of defrauding the people of the South of their property, by means but little more respectable than stealing to the organized bands in pome of the territories, whose business it is to harass, intimidate and injure, by violence and trickery, all men who hold slaves to the taunts of imbecility which Republican legislators, speakers and presses have constantly thrown at tho loyal people of the South to the studied adherence to the programme made out by Gkeelv tt Co., to refuse all compromises, no matter hew honorable to the Xorth, or jist to the South to the frequent repetition, from high Republican source?, of the statement that the South must be conquered ; must be brought into subjection by military force, and to the statement made by the President of the United States but a few years ago, that elaverj- which the Southern people believe to be at the foundation of all their interests must be placed mi course of ultimate extinction. These, and a thousand and one other facts, first brought the Southern people to a realizing sense of the degradation fo which a powerful political party in the Xortii would subject t!em, if they would calmly submit. After thinking over the history of the Republican party, as out-lined above, would you, dear reader, believe it to be the inoffensive, constitutional party wh:ch the editor of the Republican tries to make it appear? And do you not think that the Republican party referred to has been the prime cause of th war? We do not pretend to say, in fact deny, as we did two weeks ago, that such action furnishes just cause fjr the rebellion inaugurated at tlu South, but it is the cause, and the justness or unjustness of it will in no way effect the fact as it exists. We think the South have not sufficient cause for bemnn'w a war ; but that they have cause to apply to the civil authorities, and if there is then no probability or possibilty that a redress of grievances will be granted, the question would admit of a different answer than it does now. The only case of a late date affecting the rights of slave-holders, which has been carried to the Supreme Court, was the celebrated Dred Scott c?se, and the entiro South, so far as an expression was had, was satisfied with the decision. All other questions and grievances should have been referred to the same tribunal. The Republican makes very strange that e should say the Republicans are responsible, when the South first arose in arms. The same editor has not probably thought so strange when he ha heard temperance ' lecturers charging liciuor-sellera with being responsible for the death of those who ded from the effects of that which they tempted them with ; and although the means used, and the passions brought into play, are different, the directness of the influence from cause to effect, is the same. If you destroy your neighbor's property, and tho civil Authorities refuso or are una-
ble to aiTord proteclion after being applied -back, unless he can show ns where ve ' had been denied territorial lights, assailed to, and ho takes the matter into his own j charged him with voting for Blais ; if he her soil, threatened her with invasion by hands, vo man of sense will deny that the .can do that, we will lake it back or amend authorities at Washington, and every attiaggressing party is to blame, even if the itby Raying that, according to his own fice employed to inflame the people of norinjured party does resort to violence first, j statement, ho agreed to and then didn't. them S:ates against ns; it therefore becomes
By destroying the pioperty of your fellowcitizens, which does you no injury, nor never can, which does not affect you, or tho business in which you are engaged, which you have no more right to meddle with than with the property of foreigners constitutes an act of aggression which may well arous-3 the indignation of those ou whom it is perpetiated. And this is the . manner in which the South has been treat- j ed by the North. The Republicans have j meddled in this way about the affnirs of the South, it was none of their business, I pecuniarily, morally, or socially. In another part of his article the editor say: When wo first read the article we determined to denounce it as infamous, and 10 intimate respectfully to the author (not the editor, we hope,) that she South was V44Lrl9 II IJVWVf y tili U1IJ ftW U 1. 1 I" I full of such watriots. and that if we enter-1 tained such opinions concerning a large j
majornj o the people ot the AortU ffoagnwli land-slide from the Republican !
17 "7 .V" in what liu'ht the author of such an article j at this time ou:rht to be regarded." If the editor had carried out Ir.s ori2inal intection of denouncing our article as ' iufamous. it is mobablo that wo should I never have recovered from the shock. The which hemakps concern I "ititimaliOTi' whit 1p would dn if hp hold fr oar nn'n-! "I ions is cerlainlv a very mild fora of a threat, if it was'intended as such ; and we onlv hav-fltos.-iv that wo will nv South I ! when we get ready, and - - - j. tliAt xvhit hA would do, hold mi? to our opinions, will have very little influence with us, as we do not work bv Republican cuaires.

It knock's Schuyleu fax I'opular-Savreignty-Post-OIIice-ciec tion system beyond reach of comparison, -a living monument of his own generösity. He deserves a leather medal with half an eye, and a gold snuff-box made of green cheese ; and if the people to whom such glorious privileges are so freely granted, are remiss in giving outward proof of their appreciation, we shall feel it our bounden duty to "touch 'em on the raw." Exolanator. Last Monday morning we were called 4 upon by C. H. Keeve, for the purpose of "talking " tr us in n il, r,nc',rn
we had taken in favor of tho Union ticket, j C0StS in fuU 1 have made arrangements j evenhundred and iifty officers and enlisWo listened calmly to his statements ot!tob6 discl,arSed if H- R- Pershing iH j ted men, th) detaila of which increase will
what he had done for the party, and his complaints of misrepresentation by us last week, reserving what reply we had to make uuil the present lime. Tiie most important part of the object of his visit to have us tske back some msinua-! was, tions which he said we had mad a,ainSt him last week, to the effect that he had toted for GtDEox BtAtN at tho April election, j We have sine looked over our lact mn,r : x I ' atd cannot see anyihirg scurri'ous against him. as he characterized it. We slated that some Democrats who are now verv te- j nacious about voiin'' the straight nflmrt. cratic ticket had voted for Republicans at the April election, and if the statement was applicable to him, he should not object to having it made. But then ho savs fortv or fifty Democrats came to him and told him that he wrs the person referred lo, and of course forty or fifty Democrats ought to know. Ho admitted to us. and also in his speech at the Court House, last Thursday even'og, that he had intended and promised to vote for Ulain, but that before the election he changed o his mind, and didn't do it. If this explanation is satisfactory to him, he is cerlainly welcome to it. So far as relates to the principle, which seems to be his only guide j in this matter, we have not the sagacity to see the difference between agreeing, and intending lo vote for a Republican, and doing it. The request to et bim right before the public was accompanied with a threat, that if we failed or refused to do bo, he would withdraw all his patronage, and use his influence against the Democrat, and that one hundred and fifty Democrats would stop their papers. We had supposed a man of his intelligence had too much sense to try to break down a paper, merely bec use its editor had said what he believed to be right. That game has been frequent ly tried and has as often failed. If he in tends to make a personal matter of it, we think that we can give him a Roland for his Oliver ; but wo hope the sober second tho't will convince him that such a course will do him no good, and will harm us but little. In regard to the course which he thought proper to pursue, in gettiug up a ticket in opposition to the one nominated by the citizens as a Union ticket, wo have no fault to find, although he has found fault with us for supporting the citizen's ticket. Ws gave our adherence to that ticket after the Democratic ticket had been withdrawn, and when it was understood thero would be none run. We did not think that Dem ocratic doctrine, Democratic usage, oro.r convictions of rih: and duty, domanded of us to provo false to the position' we had taken, as he did his promise to support Blaix. In conclusion, we havo nothing to take
Success ct the Union Ticket.
The election here la?t Monday resulted this view ho authorizes the military corain the success of the Union or Citizens mander to order out the forces and muster Ticket, by an average majority of CO. If as many additional numbers of volunteers
jan effort had been made, the majority , could have been materially increased ; but as there wa3 considerable feeling aroused by the efforts of some of those supporting ! the straight ticket, the Democratic Union made no exertions to counteract them, not! wishing to create a serious division in the! party. Those who opposed the Union i tictet had a perfect riht to do so, and we do not 44 dispute their Democracy " for j it. We differed with them in regard to! t1Q proprety 0f nominating a ticket after tho first one had withdrawn, and a meet - inf of citizens had nominated a Union I

The adjourned m r-n 1 1 n rr cf nur mprclianl a to t:l.'A infrt nn- . , deration what action is necesary in regard 9 to State license, met thi afternoon. Tho committee made a report setting forth the law in reference to this matter, and submitting the following resolutions: Resolved, That whilst we claim to be, ns we ever have been, true and loyal citiZ9ns of the Stat0 . of VirSinia; obedient to her laws, and all demands which have been made or may be made upon us in accordance therewith, we at the aama time hold ourselves as loyal citizens of the United States and will maintain our allegiance to the same as we have hitherto. Resolved, That we are willing to pay our license taxes in accordance with tho laws of Virginia, as long as Virginia shall remain one of the United States, but wo are not willing to pay any revenue to the preser.t usurped Government at Bichmoud, which, without the consent of the people of Virginia, and in violation of the State Constitution, has assumed to absolve us from our allegiance to the United States Government. and transfer it to the Confederate States. Resolved, That wo recommend tho merchants ot Wheeling and Ohio county to withhold the payment of taxes on their business for the present. The resolutions were unanimously adopted; after which tho chairman unnounced that the Commissioner of Revenue, to forward this patriotic undertaking, had resigned liia office. Three cheers were given lor the Commissioner, and a resolution adoptded to reimburse him, and present a fitting testimonial of the appreciation of his course. Tho meeting wa9 very largo, and broke up with three cheers for the Union now and forever. The action of the meeting lias created a good deal of excitement, and is approved on all sides. Gov.
