Plymonth Democrat

THURSDAY, OCT- 29. 1868. TO TEE POLLS! Let every democrat and conservative give one day of honest, earnest, enthusiastic vork for his country and the g'orious principles of a free government nextTuesIf dtfeated now it it mort tban doubtful If we ever eojoy another epportunity to exercise the elective franchise uotrirosseled and uninterrupted. The franchise in the louth is to-day the tool and instrument of congress, their servant and slava. Why may not their encroachments and murpatioRs extend and increase so long aa success attends them ? The man who trusts them to give baek the liberties they hare usurped, will be deceived. We must arise and bid them cease their wicked scheming, or they will continue their course of robbery, plunder and usurpation until the bonds of debt and unlawful power make us very slaves. Let us on Tuesday next, strike boM.y through the ballot box, for the constitution without which we ate at sea without eaptain, pilot or helmsman. Give a day of sueh labor as money cannot hire or buy. You will work for dearer than money the perpetuation of civil liberty. The viotory ia ours if we strive for it like men. We are battling for the right and for the welfare of oppressed humanity for ages to eome. Can we not afford to make sac rifiees, if they become necessary? NEXT TUESDAY. The question is before the people whether they will perpetuate and sustain a free government, founded on principles of! enualitv and justice, or whether thov will . , j- i e v indorse the radical programme of mequaliiy before the law, opptcssion and sectional , .. , legislation . Next Tuesday it is the duty of every voter to seriousiv consider the icnortance -i- ' a of the duty before him, and then to conscientioudy discharge thatduty. It is not the soecess er defeat of a party or man that is at stake ; it is the vital interest of the country for years to come. Great Interests and great questions must be decided for weal or woe. In the issue stands the question of the payment of the bonds in gold or greenbacks; and the expansion or contraction of the currency; the continuation or disbandment of the large standing army now occupying the south; the settlement of the question if congress may legis late outside the constitution and enforce unconstitutional laws despite tho supreme court ; whether the people ef the south shall be won to our "union of hearts' by inst treatment and equal laws, or whether r. , . t ' . ! they must be guarded by bsyonets as is Po - land and Ireland. Whether freedom or lyrranny shall govern in this repsblican I land of ours. t We eannot and do not propose to argue , ssj of the questions before the people, at this late hour ; that has already been done.

snd it only remains now tor honest and i tical illustration of the benefit of demointelligent men to determine how their in- jcratic rule. For many years, up to 1867,

finance and vote shall be east: I We appeal tu our friendi and neighbors to lay aside rassion and prejudice, and to Mar.mm ,Y a r:,,ht f f im V ! that thev mav nernetuate anfl a manner preserve the right for generation! yet to eome, and may bestow it alike upon all sections of this free land of oars, knowing ae north and no south. If you think it right, and fair, and hooersble to hold the southern states in slavery and make the negro the master of the white man vote the radieal ticket next I Tuesday for that is their avowed pur pose. Do TOD think the country is ia a conditio to-day to endure a financial crisis, and paaie, which will shake the land from center to circumference, and cause nnheardef went and distress to our people ? If io, vote the radical ticket, and for the payment of the bonds in gold, by which the rich are made richer, and the poor, I poorer. Already ths storm Is gathering, and the Western Money Market is the harbinger of what will surely come with the sucees cf the Bondholder's tieket.

Mark r words, though, W'th the election ef Grant snd Colfax ths er.sh will eome, and " starvation ss s grim spectre will stalk through ths land.

The Cincinnati Commercial thus re-

bukes its radical cenfrere9 who, upon a forged report and false construction of General Blair'a speech, are loudly charging him with having threatened the assassination of General Grant, in case of his election. " It does not appear, from the full repert of General Blair's speech in St. Louis, that he threatened or suggested the assassination of Grant. He said that if elected, Grant nil! never leave the presi dontial mansion as long as he lives. Of course, if he never leaves it as long aa he lives, he will never leave it alive. But Blair meant to convey the idea that Grant will become dictator, imperator, or something of that sort, and relieve the people of their quadrennial uproar. It was a very ingenious constructien, however, of the words used by Blair, and if persisted in might put him to more trouble than he he has had ia explaining the Broadhead letter away." It was a very "ingenious construction," indeed, of General Blair's speech, but though "persisted in" has not been productive of trouble to General Blair, or benefit to radicalism. The people know it is a silly lie, and despise the miserable liars who invented and repeat it. Indiana Sentinel, Marshall County has 600 democratic majority. Shall we give it iu full, or shall we shirk our duty snd let the election go by default ? Let every democrat answer by actions and not words. Radical Abuse or Foreigners. The editor of the Cincinnati Gazette, the most ultra radical sheet in the west, pays his compliments to Irish citizen;, in the following language : M Is there an arphan asylum to be burned ? Irishmen are the foremost in the work. Are negro women and children to be murdered ? Democratic leaders employ Irishmen to commit murder r Is irauuuicui vounz io ue uoue : insi Irishmen are use! for that purpose. Is an assault to be made upon free speech? The reck- ; less and impulsive Irishmen are put for ward by leading democrats to throw stones and risk the consequences. Are processions to be assaulted ? Irishmen are ought to do the work. In fine, Irishmen have permittsd themselves to be used first to protect and defend slavery, and now that slavery has been destroyed, to uphold and perpetuate the spirit of the infernal institution." Let every Irishman read this and treasure it up as the spirit which animates the radical party. And why this language ? The Gazette editor has failed to wheedle the Irishmen of Ohio into the support of its party, and hence commences his abuse of them. Wj have about 12 in each county to j PJin to p-ive th electoral vote nf rndiinn jg - n io give me eieciorai vote oi inaiana j t Seymour and Blair. I Let Marshall county gain enough for ten of her neighbor counties. We can de it if we try, with a will. ?s55S!5saü Prac,lcaI Democratic Economy The state of New York furnishes a praethe state was republican, and the rate of stal0 tation. owiDS l extravagant appropriations oi me raaic&i legislatures, was 7 3-7 mills. In 18G7, the state went democratic, and though, owing to a radical r8jority in thc the dcmol were unable to carry into execution all their plans for retrenchment and reform, still, in one year, they have cut down the rate of state taxation to 5 4-5 mills. This reduction, computing the "iTertece upen the value of property assessed, saves $3,178,960 to the people of New York in one year! In addition, the canal revenue under the management of a democratic canal board has been increased so far this season , now drawing to a close, 6500,000 ! These are fasts official farts and show beyond dispute the great benefit of democratic rule, with its system of strict economy sad retrenchment, ever entails upon the people. Radical Tombstoneb If the radical party suceeed in plaeing Grant and Colfax at the head of this nation, sod electinzanother radical eongress to rob the public treasury by its unequal laws and u whisky rings," business will be ruined throughout the souotry, and etery city and town in the land will be studded aa thick nnv crRVevard with radical tomhstnn. t.A.A I" " , .von the doors of houses M for sale" and for rnt " This is what radical misrule and corruption is preparing for the people Nuts for Radicals to Crack, If you want peace, what are you running your candidate on his military merits fer?

Over 1,000,000. A Philadelphia correspondent of the Hartferd, Conneetieut, Timet, evidently well posted, writes that the radicals raised and expended over one million of dollars in the reeent elections. He says : "The millionaire, Stewart, subscribed five hundred thousand dollars to the fund a short time since ; and wealthy brokers and bo ndholders of New York subscribed from twenty thousand to one hundred thousand dollars each, till the sum on the

,i6t amounted to over one million of dollars. At least half of that sum came into I'tun sylvania and as much more was raised by the Loyal Leaguers of this city and state, who made enormous piles out of the government during the war, when they cried " loyalty," and went in deep for the plunder. " Three hundred thousand dollars were sent to Indiana, one week before the election there." The Radicals played all their trump cards money, ballot-box-stuffing, illegal voting, ete., on the 13th. They eau hardly play the same cards in November next. Then, oeurage, democrats ! Up and at them, and let us snatch victery from the very jaws of defeat. The Radical Press on the Sltua lion. We never before saw such a frightened set of fellows as the editors of the radical papers of Indiana, and not without cause. With one voice they ill cry out : " There is danger as to the result of the November election in this state'''4 a change of 500 republican votes will give the state to Seymour," etc., and beseechingly appeal to their friends " not to be caught sleeping on their arms," bat to go vigorously to work, for say they : M The fact that success was almost within the grasp of the democracy, inspires them with new hope. They intend to work like beavers, and are already at it. No man can tell what weight the thirteen votes of Indiana may have in the electoral college. They may, decide, after all, the question of Grant's election. There is, in our opinion, the very greatest need for increased exertion and watchfulness. Had! the democracy known that a change of one vote in every township of Indiana from the republican to the democratic party would have given the state to Hendricks, they would have moved heav?n and earth, spent, millions, and redoubled their exertions to accomplish that result. Let us not be caught napping. Nothing but the clo?est vigilance and tireless exertion will answer to offset the schemes now on foot to defeat Grant in Indiana." These fellows are not " hollering" without a cause. They know that their imported voters from other states can not be with them in November, and that a bold and determined charge by the democracy would rout tbeir demoralized and weakend columns. Some of them, like the In-' i disaspolia Jnwrmml tss Mseliessi Courier, are already preparing excuses for their defeat by crying that 30,000 Kentuckians are to vote io the state in November. They know it is false, but ai they know their defeat in November is beyond a doubt, if the democracy will stand tip like brave and true men and fight it through, they must, of course, invent some plea to cover up their discorafiiture, and even a false one they think is better than none. Democrats of Indiana ! you see the enemy in full retreat, demoralized, dispirited, and staggering. Lipon them ! Upon them ! And lef your charge be sharp, crushing, and decisive ! Connecticut. ADDRESS OF TBI DEMOCRATIC STATE COM MITT RE. Niw Haven, Coou., Oct. 21. Tq the Cenyiesticut Dtmocracy : But a fuw days are left before the great battle for eonstiiutional government shall be decided. Now is the time for vigorous, united action. The democracy everywhere in the primary elections have mads immense gains. Radical fraud and bribery have done their worst, but thc democratic forces are firm and unflinching and confident. Oar gallant standard-bearers, Seymour and Blair, ar; backed by patriotic masses that know no such word as fail. Cowards may go to the rear. The old guard steps forward firmly to the front. Onward, fellow-democrats, onward, is the cry. Let every democratic heart respond to it, and the 3d of Noreruber will be a day of glory to our ceuae, worthy of all who honor the names and the principles ot Washington, Jefferson and Jackson. By order of the state central committe, James Gallagher. Chairman. The democracy of Indiana have splendid pluck. One of them writes in a private letter thus: " Although Jaeooins nave prohahly carried this state by a ' small majority, we think we c.tn carry it for the democracy in November. At least, we shall try, and if we c ie, we shall die grit." With that spirit animating the whole body of the Indians demoerscy .there need be no doubt felt about the result in November. Indeed, with that spirit abounding everywhere, Gov. Seymour will go into the presidential chair sweepingly. Let every man do his duty sad then if the people blindly vote increased taxation, ineressed debt and increased burdens upon themse've, the fault will rest upon the democratic psrty, individually or collectively. The duty of every democrat is to stand by the tieket, vret, last and all th i.lmt.

A Card. To the Elt tors of the Fourth Congress ional District of Indiana : To my political and and personal friends in the fourth congressional district, I desire to express my warmest and heartfelt thanks, for their kind and geoerous support in electing me as their representative

to the forty-first congress of the United State. True, my opponent, the lion. George W. Julian, the present member, disregard-! ing all honor and expressed tv.shes of the , frajd and chicanery, to thwart the intention of the people, and has obtained for the time being the disfranchisement oi 99wwm uuuuircu ui uc DIHSVBS Ol A) UC j j -i ,.c . i. -. ,.r t i county, by rejecting, through the board of canvassers in that county, the precinct of Richmond, in which I obtained a majority over him of 202 votes. But such conduct is condemued by all good men, whether republican or democrat, and returns with tenfold power to crush forever the perpetration of so great a wrong to the rights of the people. The south precinct was established by the same board which created the north ; and the election was conducted under republican officers, uoder a copy of the same registry as the north. Whatever was done by the south precinct is equally applicable to the north, and both niut stand or fall together. At the north precinct Julian received a majority of C85 votes ovc-r me, and I received at tho south 202 votes over him ; but the south poll was rejected without any proper cause by boaid without any legal authority, and uuder the advice of the honorable gentleman. Tbc republican state ticket wa defrauded out of 188 votes, and I of 202 vote, io order to secure him the certificate of election. Against this great wrong I have tiled a protest with the secretary of state at Indianapolis, supported by the affidavits of Col. William A. ßickle, of Richmond, one of the disfranchised voters, and thall do j all in my power to correct it, and vindicate j the rights of the people to a fair and free j j election That Mr. Jul ian v as beaten by 87 votes i iiiit-i.i is sctnowiedsrea rv nis brother s paper. the radical Republican, and it was only after mature reflection by h.m and his as Boeiatea. it was decided that the vote of the south precint of Richmond thould be thrown out, in order t;j save his election regardless of the danger to governor Barights of myself. For the present I have taken lecal steps to stay the issuing of the congressional certificate to him, and to obtain the certificate to myself as the legally elected member, and shall do no act which will injure the rights ef thc citizens of Wayne township; but will demand a full od fair! investigation of everything connected with the action of the board and this infamous conduct in rejecting tl e whole vote of the precinct. Again I thank you for your kind and , , ,' 1 , ., , , and subscribe myself vour legally elected repre5entative. JOHIi S. HEID. generous support, irrespective of Extract from a Speech oi D. W. SiSMMSSB. Pxtract from a speech delivered by : Hon. 13. W. Lianna, in Macoupin couuty, Illinois, last week: u Now, my fellow citizen, as I dislike j to hear others, I am unwilling myelf to clamor about this claim of loyalty : that paltry and mise-able plea should be left entirely with the radic.il party. Loyalty is the beginning and ending of their creed Let them enjoy their harmless delusion that so 88ems to nourish them. It is their cry in tho morning and their cry at night. Let them make it, and make it without j uisturoance. i.et tnem deal with the I --- i :t. ,L. i ! D,1uu Q"u us wiui me suustanie, oi this enlightened goverr ...i u t. 1 believe every white American citizen, who is obedient to the constitution and laws, and not resting under legal disabilities, properly and constitutionally imposed, should enjoy the privilege of the elective franchise in this country. Applause. That i- where the constitution has plaoed this question ; voices, that's so, that's so. that is where the democratic paaty stands, 'the radieal party adds to thid M provided he is loyal." Hence. yu ace, there ia a new principle asserted whii'h requires a new constitution, aud new legislation to carry it out. It h a term coined by the radical party for radical purposes, aud is made sufficient to carry out whatever the radicals want. Tho scholar who moulded our language, once fixed its signification ; but the radical party has unfixed it, and given it a new and different signification. But I have no quarrel with thern about their loyalty. I am willing to :idmit that thc radical party h perfectly and truly loyal. Laughter. As loyal as loyal can be. Renewed laughter As loyal as Longstreet aud Blodffstt : Misers and j Lughter, that they are .1 est as loyal as governor Brown, whose loyalty has recently become so hot that the Chicago convention like to took fire at it ; jrreat laughter, so hot that it excited the jealousy sf Ben VVade ; laughter and cheers, hotter than Logan's loyalty great laughter, almost as hot as it win when he implored the president of thc southern confederacy to give him up colonel Abel B Straight and the I ud isms soldiers captured with him, by Forrest, at daylesville, thai be might sacrifice thorn as a burnt offering on the altar of treason against the state of Georgia. Tremendous apt lause. Radical loyalty, my fellow-cititeos simply means obedience to tho bulla aud resonptl of the radical congress. It means nothing beyond tbat. No matter what a men'p eharsrtcr is ; bo matter how ter-

rupt or how base he may be, if he only votes the radical ticket, that settles the question of his loyalty. The army of thieves and robbers, who manage to steal and appropriate fifty per cent, of the entire amount the country is assessed for internal revenues, are all loyal, because they vote the radical ticket. Applause. The McNeils and Quautrols, of Missouri, who used to smite hip and thigh, with the sword of vengeance, al1 who stood in the

wav nf their nnri n !i7,l i!ct roilotinnc nm uoder the aoknowleded rebel flar of Ster. ling Price, and the other under the bandit eolors of governor Fletcher, are both equally loyal to-day, because they both vote the radical ticket. "Great ehcerinir 1 - m j pt Bütl ers, the faynes, the S tan tons, the Holts, and the balance of the unnatu-1 qJ ral monsters, who, like them, were spawned in the troubid waters of our recent j civil commotion, are loyal, because they 1 vote ths radical ticket. Tremendous j cheering. The redhanded Lonstreet whose fiery spirit led on the destroying: j columns which whitened every hill, and'J stained the waters of every river of Vir-! W onnia With tVlA linae onA klnml nf mir aluin ' ! O ' ueighbors and friends, is loyal now, I be- ! cause he votes the radical ticket. Loud applause. The names of ten thousand victims come forth from the bongy graves of Andersonville, and hiss their eurses in shrinking car of their eruel destroyer, and . , yet this man Brows is perfectly and truly loyal to day, because he votes the radical ticket. Pr Jlooed cheering No matter what the height of exccllenc, or what the depth of infamy ; whether as high as heaven or as deep a hell, there is no ine : quaHtT except the inequality created by th;a 8taodard of loyalty, for, with it, everyj thjng bad becomes good, and without it, everything good becomes bad. The broadbrimmed quaker, and the outlawed moral j !eper . the sanctimonious Puritan, and the j retiirned conyict , hand in hand descend into the waters of the radical Siloam, dug: by iutler and Sumner, and come forth ; with enual purification. fGreat cheering. 1 There murder and iufamy in all thoir appalling degrees, may wash out their balej fuJ gtaiua together. rApplause.l Id all " irr j the regions 01 nell there could nat, 11 tierhaps, be fouud a devil so much worse than ordinary devils, though his head were ... , .i-i . wreathed with vipers; though his breath were a constant vanor of noison. and his ftirked t0B Ue charged with perpetual l .1 . I. . i . l. death, that he might sting and destroy all that it might reach, but that would becomo truly loyal if ho could only come back to! earth and vote the radical ticket. Tre mendoua cheers. That is latter day loyalty, aud God help us if it reigns. Loud cheers. My fellow-citizens, let us return to reason. We have had euough of war let us new have peace. Not the pence proposed by the radical party, but rational peace ; I peace based upon justice. We can never v . . r . , .. , acquire it in any other way. 1 he radical party says: let us have peace ; but what kind of peace do they propose. Look to the south. The baleful shadows of despoHem already cover her ; she bows her head mournfully, and her song has become the plaiutive strain ol the mourning captive. Those shadows lengthen continually they point northward already ; and as the sun of constitutional liberty sinks lower, as it does every day that we live, those dark shadows which even now ret upon the graves of Washington, Madison, Jefferson, and Heury, will cover us at last, and we too, then, will feel for ourselves the pangs we now have it in our power to remove from others. The rod of slavery is extended over the entire south, my fellow citizens. Four millions of negroes rest their feet upon the necks of twelve millions ot white men in the southern slates. Let us take them off. Terrific aüplause The radical party says, lai us have peace. Let me tell them they cannot have peace until they do right. Great cheering Justice is the ground-work upon which peaco mi st be established. It can exist no where Sate). The radical party says, up with the loyal black man, and down with the disloyal white man of tho south, and that will be peace. But nothing could be shorter sighted. The democratic partysays, up with thc constitution. Long continued cheering Uiise it above all the states ; higher than presidents ; higher than the cougress ; abovo all the sedition and conspiracy of political parties ; raise it so high that it may be seen of all the states, and acknowledged by all tho people of the states ; cheers that like tho serpent of brass which Moses set up, it may give life to all who will look upou it, and respeet it. That wiil be peace. Urreat applause. Be not dismayed, my fellow couutrymen. After the storm there must always be areturning wave. The public mind is fast coming to its sober second thought. There is a great deal of asperity in this cauvass, but there is not half so much as there wa in tho last. It is passiog away. S'eaty, suited, patieut effort will give us the victory at latt. The dismal wilderness of Shur, and tho bitter waters of Marah, have lung been our portion. But we go to the land of Elim, where at the promised twelve wells of water, and beneath the threescore and ten palm trees we will spread at last our feasts of rejoicing. Then we wil! have peace ; peace based upon the c institution ; peace baaed upou truth and justice ; universal peaoe, which all nmy enjoy, together with that universal oense of safety safety to person and property that will bring happiness si J contentment to all.

The officer on Rousseau's staff, sent to St. Bernard parish yestercV-, reports that the bodies of the Spanish baker and his son, murdcr- ' ed on Sunday night by negroes, were . burned in the house. The wmen and children were saved The officer could not learn that any woman or child had been killed. The two eompacies of iofan try sent there are still in the parish, but J away from the vicinity. The report tbat the troeps had been attacked is denied. At a late hour last night, a white man was killed in the First district of this city, aud another in the Second. The latter belougcd to a club of Spaniards, Portuguese, Italians, and French, who were much exasperated, and between whom and the negroes several fights occurred to-day. which resulted in the death and wounding of seversl persons of both colors. The roetropolital police force are altuos' demoralized, and troops have been stationed throughout the city to prevent any serious conflict. Gov. Warmouth has issued a proclamation requesting an abstinence, by both parties, frera further public processions or demountrations until after the elections. The negro policemen have failed for tw days to report for duty. Every one of them has been discharged, and about one hundred whites appointed in their places. Many of them were old members of the force. Some discharged United States soldiers, and about 200 citisens, will be sworn in as speoi il officer, and be placed on duty in the streets until the force is completed. Mayor Conway proposes, ineae authority be given the council, to appoint Gen. Steadman temporary chief of police. New Ori.kans, Oct. 27. The following is Gov.

The act ot eongress prohibiting the organiiation of militia in this state strips me of all power to sustain them in the discharge of their duties, and I am compelled to appeal to you to uke charge of the peace of these perishes and use your forces to that end.
