tho colonies weio denied the light to

In 1772 by the "Federal party." The
The old Federal patty was conquered and
died while tho Democratic paity lived.
In 1770 tho opposition to the Doinoe
raqy went by tho name of "Cow lioys."
The Deinoeiacy defeated nnd killed that
phrty.
In I7S0 tho opiiosition rallied under
tho naiuo of "Convention Monarchists,"
nnd they, too, wete slain by tlio Nation
al Dcniociary.
In 170 1 the "lilaekCockadors" eamo up
and the Domociney boat and killed them.
In 1808 tho opposition styled them
ntdves "Anti-.lefforHon luipieshinent
Men." Thoy, likowife, ieiishfd nt tho
hands of tho National Democracy.
In 1811 tho Democracy had to fight
nnd kill tho enemy under the namu of
"Jhitish Bank Men.
In 1812 tho opposition called them
selves "PoaceMon." They aro nlwnys
for poaco when our countiy's lights uio
to defend. Vc, they, too, weio con
higned to peaceful idumbcin by the De
mocracy. lu 181") tho opposition tallied under the
name of "Bluelight Federalists." Thoy
got this name from tho fact of their
leaders having held out hluo lights lo tho

In 18M tho Democracy had to kill the
"Hartford Convention Federalists."
In 1810 tho opposition styled them

In 1818 they weio called "No Paity

kiting.
In 1820' tho "National nepublicans"
came up, thicatened lo destroy the Dem
ocintiu paity.- lu 1821 they cheated
General .Iacuboh out of the Presidency,
hut in 1828 the DemociaVy inllied again
and elected "old Hickory" by n tromenil
ous majority.
In 18!5I tho Whig paity was brough
into existanco to fight tho Dimiociary.
They elected II.miiiison in 1810, andTAY
i.ou in 1848, but in 18i2 their gient
leaders, Oi.av and Wkiistuii having died,
they were so essentially be.iton by tho
Democracy that they went the way of their
illustrious piedecessois.
In 1851 the "Know Nothing Parly
was trotted out, but liku the gourd
.Iiinii, it sprang up in n night uud with
eied in n day. Tbj sun ol Democracy
was too much for it
In 1855 the Demncincy had to contend
against, and put to lest, an enemy known

In 1800, the opposition call themselves
the Lincoln-Wido-A waku-Itepiiblieans.
This is u faithful record of the names

Ruin Their Watchword.
Thoie nro n set of men in this State
who nro determined to ruin because they
cannot lulotho Demoerntie party. All
men who nro actuated by this bp'nit will
vote for Dicckiniidgo, who has no chance
in tho State, instead of voting for Doug-
ofns by which they might defeat Lincoln.
They Uneaten to keep up their organiza
lions in (hu Stute to the extent of in fututc
nominating State And county tickets, with
hope, us they say, of making 200,000
Democrats submit to them. Thoto men
who nro thus endeavoring to elect Lincoln
can go outright to the enemy as soon ns
they wish; the gicat nrmy of Popular
fioveioi'Mity Democrats will not miss
them. If n handful of disorganizes
think they can make pensioned and pnm
peied slaves of tho gicat Democratic ar
my of Ohio they will discover their er
ror boforo they accomplish their dcsiios.
A lot of men tiied the samogamo in 18-18,
by going for Van Burcn, and only nc"
coniplihhed tjjeir own political ruin.
The contost in Ohio is between Doug
las and Lincoln, this every man knows,
and ho who under this state of affairs pie
tends to bo n Democrat and throws his
vote nwny on Breckinridge will plneo n
spot upon his political character that will
stick to him as long as ho live-, it will be
cast up to his children, and even his grand-
childien will not escape it.
"Choose Ye."
If you think you do not know enough
to know whother yon want slavery in a
rerritory whoro you lcside, or not, bu
sine nnd voto tho Republican ticket; for
the doctiino of the Republican party is
that the people become fools just ns soon
as tliP3' enter n Territory, nnd havo no
lights that anybody is bound to respect.
If you ically feel that you would not
lecome n dolt as soon ns you entered a
l'criitory, and that you would ho com
pelled to judgo whether you wanted slav
ery there or not, voto tho Democintiu tick
et; because tho Domocratic doctrino i'h
that n'mnn's wits nio not bounded by n
geographical line. Wo don't belicvo
now, and probably never shall, that a no
gro becomes nn intellectual giant in a
Punitory and all whilo men become
fools. Wo leave to tho Republican party
an exclusive monopoly of that kind of
choice logic. Tho essential olomont of
llopublicanism consif-ts in tho belief that
a man loses his natural rights ns well ns
his common senso ns soon ns ho boconios
a resident of n Tenitoiy. Thoso who co
ineido with that opinion should voto the
Republican ticket.

nud 18
innusiiicious ns thoso that now surround

Dimiocintie party that won thoso triumphs
is in the field now, with the snmo princi
ples iosoribed upon its bummer, invigora,

One of two things, if tho Demoeiacy
nnd Union men will, it can ocitninly be
accomplished: cither aDcniocintic Presi-j
lent will ho elected by the people, or the!
ioetionul Rcimblican nominee for that of
fice will, nt all event., bo defeated by tho
popular vote. 11ns should animate
Democrats nud Conscrvntives to unite
nud put forlh all their atrength in tho
coming contest.
In icgard to our own btato, events aro
so shnping themselves ns to render it al
most certain that n maiority voto will be
given against Lincoln, nt tho Picsidon-
tial election. Iho gonoral concentration
of tho masses of the Democracy and Un
ion men upon Judgo Douglas indicate
pretty clearly that ho will rocoivo tho
Electoral vole of Ohio. That a majority
of tho peoplo of our Stnto nio opposed to
Lincoln nnd in favor of Douglas, no im
partial and intelligent man cntei tains
f
oubt. Vo trust that the election on
tlio tiih of Noveiubor will bo made to echo
the voice of that majoiity.
The Demociuey of our sittor Stnto of
Indiana nio eneajriuK heartily and un
flinchingly in tho Piesidential contest,
with not merely tho hope, but tlio assu
rance of cany ing tho Stato for Douglas.
The majority against the Democracy, at
the Into btato election, wns several thou
sand less than that in Ohio, besides
in any Roll nnd Everett nnd IJreckcnridgo
men, who voted with tho Republicans nt
tho Stnto election, will, nt tho Presiden
tial, voto the Democratic ticket, nud tho
iiupottcd Republican voters will bo want
ed in the States to which thev belong.
Indiana may bo counted upon ns safe for
Douglas.
In Pennsylvania Curtin was not nom
innlcil ns tho Republican candidato for
Governor, lint on what was called tlio
People's ticket Ho was known to bo nn
old Whig nnd n high tariff man, nnd
his nomination was endorsed by the Stnto
Central Committee of tho American par
ty. Thousands of old Whigs nnd Amer
icans who, nt tho Stnto election voted
for Curtin, will not voto for Lincoln.
Foster, the Democratic candidato for
Governor, had sumo personal enemies in
his own party, who will bo united in the
Democratic ranks nt tho Presidential
election. The fact that every Democrat
ic electoral ticket in Pennsylvania has
been withdinwn except the ono nominated
nt Reading, renders a Democratic union
in that Htato ccitain: and places tho do-
feat of Lincoln, nnd tho success of tho
Democracy in the old Koystono beyond
dispute.

Democratic friends in New Jersey, Illin

of n cheering and encouraging character.
Rut tho eyes of our countrymon aio fix

tho Piesidential contcsi. The politics of
that Stato nro loo complicated to nttompt
even n genernl review in this article
Wo can only btiolly glance at tho present
prospect.
In tho tlueo Stato elections that havo
taken place in New Yoik since 1850, the
Uopublican vote has tint cotuo witlun 121
808 of tho voto of that year, whilo
tho Democratic vote his increased upon
that of 18j0 bvau.ill. I his shows
what has been tho tendency of public
sentiment in thnt Stato during the last
four years, and what it is reasonable to
expect it will be at tho next Stato nnd
I'lo-iilentuil election, on tliolirst luesilny
in November.
At the Stato election in New York,
last fall, tho nntip'nal mon wcro in
small majority. Rut the aggregato vote
wns so small that it will probably bo in
ci cased on tho lith of Noveiubor neaily
or (plito 150,000, The quiet, conserva
tive men who ordinarily stay r.wny from
tho polls, aio pretty certain, in n timo
like the picont, to entertain National
views, to bo oppocd to sectional agita
tion, nnd to disturbing tho trado nnd bu
siness intoicsts of the country. It is fair
to prcsuino that nt least two-thirds
tho iucienscd voto of New York, nt the
ensuing election, will bo given against
the Republicans. In that case, tlio de

any possibility, icach tho Presidential
