The Democratic party should recommend itself to every young man in tho country; upon examination he will find that it possesses the true principles of government, and tho only party that docs possess them. It is a party which ever pursues the same course. At times, like the mighty oak, it will bend before the storm of opposition and seem to have been destroyed, but when the storm passes, it again rears its lofty head and seems but have taken deeper root in the soil. Young man, the Democratic party is the one which you should join. When you enter its ranks you know that you have a home. It is a party in which you can be born, live till your head is silvered o’er with age, and die iu its ranks, and it will be the good old party still.— Its principles you can always defend with a clear conscience, because they are correct, and its banner you can carry with

What a spectacle it is to behold his competitor, John G.
