Organization ofthe Democratic Club of Jackson Township. Whereas, claiming to be member of the National Democratic party, standing in political doctrine squarely upon the written Constitution and the Union of the States as they w?re and forever should be. and fully believing that we are the only political party now in distance which can and will maintain that Constitution and Union of the States together intact and in harmony. And Recogn:.in as we do the perfect equality of all

libetty mi tbo firt Monday in April nfxt. T.he proferdings of the Convention will be f'mind in nnothor column. .Tami s Mii.i.esox, the candidate for Justice, is in every respect well qualliRed to discharge the duties of the OiEce in a prompt and cunctent manner, and we nsk for him tho support of every true I)einocrat and opponent of jnobocracy, anl we will here iust say to Democrats in funicular that this is no time
to bring up pasf political fends to distract our councils and divide fiur strength. In lys gone bye wr fought for party victory, but now we ficht for liberty, for the Constitution and for all those glorious and sacred rights transmitted to us bv our ancestors, r.nd now pr-rilI by the wild and treasonable l.eresies of abolitionism. The man who has h'.M by ihe oM Democratic banner for the btst eighttcn months nHy safely be trusted, nnd is def rving the support and countenance of Democrats. Isaac II. Wilson, the nominee for Trustee is too vrell known to the people of AddiKon Township ro require commendation at uir hands, lis has served in the same capacity nnee before, and no one found fault with the manner in which he discharged the duties ofthe oflice. The balance of the ticket could net be bettered, and we predict the whole will he elected by a majority never exceeded in this Township, if the Democracy but do their duty, nnd we are cenfident they will do that very thing.
D. Snepp
& A eotcmporary very aptly remarks, Were it true, as the Republicans so vehemently contended last fall, that there is no bopc of subduing the rebellion but by the
previous abolition of shivery, it would follow that lh fsvilnr? of the emancipation policy Might to be the signal of peace. Why continue the contest in the face of an absolute Certainty tlut it cannot succeed? The emancipation policy is a demonstrated failure: nnd if tho Republicans were right in holding that the success of the war depended on emancipation, it logically follows that a bootless and expensive war should terminate at once. Rut the irreat body of the Democrats clo not reason from these abolition premises, nor do they attempt to draw the. conclusion which legitimate!' results from these prem
ises from any other. They expect the war to go on, and will support nil constitutional measures for its earnest prosecution. l?y the cts of ti e late Congress Mr. Lincoln is rade independent of the Democrats, and of everybody, duriiRX his official term; supplies fir the support of the war having been voted two years in advance. With this fullress'of power in the hands of the President, tire administration will be better employed in organi.ing war in the South than in orgauiziug ar meetings in the North.
Enquire Hacker's office, but the conspirators grouped their way np the dark stairway, in and through Esquire Hacker's office, and from thence were admitted into the Hall There were nearly or quite one hundred r resent, many of them residing several miles from town. There was scarcely a Re
publican ofthe rampant persuasion but what I was present, among whom we will name
John C. Green. John Pyle. T. A. McFarland, Thomas Husk, M. P. Rarger, Robert Iladger, Thos. Ray, Dr. George Lupton, and about seventy others whose names we were able to obtain, which are carefully preserved for future reference. This organization is nominally called the ' Union League," but in fact is the "Strong Brotherhood" an extensive organization of a military and incendiary nature pervading the entire country, the ritual and modes operan
di of operation, object, etc., we have in our
possession. The head quarters are at Chica
go. Its professions are patriotic but its
practices and tendencies infamously treason
able we use the term treasonable in its correct acceptation the organization does not
propose to overthrow the Administration of
Abraham Lincoln, but its tendency and ob
ject is to overthrow the Constitution and
subvert the laws made in pursuance thereof.
Its object is not to crush the rebellion nor turn the arms with which its members are
mostly supplied against the rebels down in
Dixie, but to incite monocracy and anarchy
here at home to inaugurate scenes here in
our midst that would beggar description and
to which the worst features of the rebellion
now in progress would be but a pleasing picture. It is in these secret, oath-bound and mid night conclaves that the assassins dagger is sharpened and the incendiaries torch is
lighted. It is no doubt fortunate for this community that this conclave of conspirators has thus early been detected and the names of its members obtained, and we assure them they will be held accountable for any deed of violence or incendiaryism that may be committed while darkness veils the earth. AVe call our readers to witness that wo have ever denounced secret political societies we have denounced them in -earsgone by, because we believed that they could accomplish no good. AV'hen our country was
united, when peace and prosperity pervaded its broad domains, secret political societies (Know-Xothings) probably done no other harm than foist a few incompetent and corrupt men into office, and incited their de
luded dupes to murder in cold blood a few harmless foreigners, though many charge that it was in these secret and oath bound dens, convening at tho dead hour of midnight, that the first seeds of this horrible rebellion were sown if so they have brought

ties of such an officer, pnd keep a fair record of all proceedings ofthe Club, give notice of all the called meetings by the President as well as all other notices that may be ordered by the Club. Sko. 7. The Committee ol Ways and Means shall with diligence inquire after the general political and pecuniary interests ofthe Club, and devise all honorable means lor furthering the objects of the same, and raise all money b- voluntary contributions nccessar' to defray tho expenses of the Club from time to time, and pav the same to the Treasurer

The seconder' of these amendments faid: "The generous gift ofthe North toward the relief fund must be admired: but ifitspuroe was to alienate our feelings from the iNiuth, then the character of the gift was changed, and took the disreputable form of a bribe to purcha the support of the country." Upon this the resolution and amendments were put to the meeting, and both were carried ! As the report of the meeting gays : "When each question was put all hands were held up, the meeting apparently voting unanimously for both." This i "unanimity" with a vengeance!

we have as tangible an evidence of its existence as we have that the Republicans of this city, and we believe the entire county, have organizations of the ''Strong Rrotherhood" or "Spartan Drothers" we apprehend thtre is but little of the Spartan nature about them, for the Spartans were a brave and noble people, and spurned the. idea of letting their slaves fight their battles.

Worthy of Attention. AVe tvould impress upon the minds of the Democracy of each Township in Shelby County the vital importance of their nominating and running, and of course electing, straight out Democrats for the various Township offices. Ther are too many who consider these Township offices of minor importance, but a greater error could not bo conceived. It is in these elections that the organization of the party is perfected and in times like these it is all essential that law
abiding men should be chosen to fill the offi
ce of Justice of the Peace men who have respect for the laws and will compel others to respect them, and men of this elas can not well be found outside of the Democratic party, especially at this time. Our safety as a people depends upon the rigid and impartial enforcement of the laws in every locality, and the honor and integrity of the administrators of the law, and we all well know that an abolitionist has neither respect for law (except the negro is interested) nor regard for civil order, and hence the necessity that they should be rigidly excluded from all official positions. AATe ask the Democracy of the various Townships in Shelby county to look to this matter, and not contaminate themselves by any alliance with abolitionism, on so-called "Cniou tickets."
RV-LAWS. 1. The Club shall hold their regular meetings on eaeli alternate Saturday at 1 o'clock P.M. in MtAuburu at such place as the Club may direct 2. It shall be the duty ofthe officers of this Club or other persons authorized to create debts for any purpose to present bills therefort) the Ciub before payment for its approval and allowance. 3. The Treasurer of the Club shall pay out no Tuony except on an order drawn on him by the Secretary and signed by the President 4. The President and Secretary nor either of them shall draw an order for money on the Treasurer unless the Club shall have pre-
yiously ordered the same and made a specific appropriation of money. The Secretary proposed the following resolution which was unanimously adopted. leolced. That the foregoing Constitution

The Missouri Legislature adjourned
on the 24th without any action on the Emancipation question. It is reported that the rebels hare taken possession of Danville, Ky., by a force of from three to ten thousand strong.

Gen. Sigcl has withdrawn his resignation. It is heralded with a great blast of trumpets, that the negro brigade has taken Jacksonville, Florida. It may be interesting to the friends of sambo to know that the Town was occupied by about a dozen women and children. It is reported that tha city of Mexico has been taken by the French, but the report needs confirmation. It is believed that the President intends, ou tho next departure ol a rebel
piratical vessel from an English port, to
at once call an extra session of Cougrcss, and recommend that all vessels under the English Hag Khali either be interdicted entirely from loading in
American ports, or subject to a tonnage
duty of about three dollars per ton. The
wisdom of this measure is questionable.

Washington letter writers say that it
will be impossible for the War Department to get its machinery sufficiently
perfected to levy the conscription before June or July. The rebel guerrillas threw the Louisville and Nashville train off thj track on the 19th, but a force of Federal troops coming up it was recaptured beforo the
rcbs had time to plunder it. Com. Farragut has passed Port Hudson, on the Mississippi, ono of the strongest fortified points on the river, with his entire licet. Ho sustained the loss of one boat, the Mississippi, which got aground and was burned. It looks as if the rebels must soon abandon their attempt to hold the Mississippi, or suffer an overwhelming defeat. Late arrivals from Europe indicate that tho European powers are becoming more friendly to the Federal government. The Tecent vote for Governor in New Hampshire stood Eastman, (Dcm.) 32,794 ; Harrison, (Ind. Dero.) 4.153 ; Gilmore, (abolition) 23,951. Eastman only lacks 215 votes of having a majority over all. The election- goes to the Legislature, which is abolition. The indications of active operations by our armies, in Virginia, the South and the Booth-West seem to be of the
j most promising nature.
