J w me ueraocraiic organiza tion throughout the state, is in Uie possession of Judge James Benton and is a most unique document. It was kept for many 3'ears by Capt. J. Speed Smith, Sr. It is an appeal to the Democracy of the -state to "get together'1 and is signed by Dan Brad ford. It says: to the democrats of Kentucy: The Executive Committee of the Democratic Party,, in Fa3ette county, held a meet ing in the city of Lexington, on Monday the 2nd; day of September 1839, at which the following resolutions were adopted: "1. That it be earnestly urged upon the Democratic party in every countv in the State, to hold public meetings t their respective court houses, and to appoint dele gates to the State Democratic Convention to meet at Frank fort on the 8th. day of Janu ary, 1840. "2. It being the principal object of said State Democra tic Convention to select can didates for the offices of Gov ernor and Lieutenant Gover nor, and for Electors of Pres ident and Viee President: That it be recommended to the Democratic Part' thru out the State to send their delegates to said convention, duty instructed upon these subjects in order that the general will of the party maj' be expressed in the selection of candidates. "3. That a Circular, letter be addressed, in the name of this Committee to the Demo cratic Party throughout the Commonwealth, rrnd sent to every county, calling upon them to hold public meetings in ever" county, for the pur pose indicated in the forego ing resolutions, aud recom mending activity and energy in the promotion of the Demo cratic cause. That in the opinion of this Committee it isexpedient for thz Democratic party at the next general election to have candidates for the Legis lature in every count', and to bring to the polls every Dem ocratic voier, and that this opinion be expressed in said circular." The Committee appointed to prepare the above mention ed circular, have concluded that they could not more ap propriately, and, at the same time, briefly discharge the duty assigned to them, and express the views of the Ex ecutive Committee, than by copying the foregoing resolu tions. When we reflect upon the cheering and decisive Demo cratic victories, recentty achieved, and the resolutions effected in Tennessee and Indiana, and that the distin guished democrat, James K. Polk, has beeu elected Gover nor of Tennessee, by a ma jority of several thousand over a "Whig competitor, who received two years ago a ma jority of nearly twenty thou sand votes, thus exhibiting a clear democratic gain of about twenty three thousand votes; aud when we compare the relative state of parties in Tennessee and Kentucky, we have every reason to hope, with entire confidence, that the reaction of pub'.ic senti ment in favor of, Mr. Van Bu ren's administration, in all the Western States, wheh has been lately so signally manifested, will be abundant ly strong enough to secure a complete change in the politi cal attitude of this Stata, at the next general election, and that she will be restored and regenerated, and resume her ancient Democratic character. Union, and u vigorous and patriotic exertion of the en tire Democratic strength of the Stale, is all that is neces sary to effect so glorious a triumph, and to rescue our beloved and renowned Com monwealth from the domin ation of a pmscriptive party, who, whilst they constantly aud most urgently attribute to their political adversaries the execrable principle, that 'Ho the victors belong the spoils," are themselves uni formly applying and enforc ing that odious rule, when ever the' have the power. They raise the salaries, and increase the burdens of the people, for thebenefitof their party leaders, and fill all of fices, including the benches of judicature, with their par tisans, and flagrante delicto, they have the effrontery to cry out corruption, proscrip tion, "spoils"! In the actual possession and enjoyment of all public employments, and of the public treasury of the State, excluding all participa tion by the Democrats, and yearning after, and in uutir ing hot pursuit of the offices and public treasury of the nation, "out of the abundauce of the heart the mouth speaketh," and they continu ally c r y "spoils, spoils. spoils." Saturated, but not satisfied out of the State crib tney .most venemently voci ferate, that which they most heartily desire 'spoils, spoils, spoils," that is give us the honors and emoluments of Union. Let every democrat do his duty, aud come up to the polls, from the hills, and from the valleys, from the cities and from the plains, and from the, uttermost ends of the State, and we shall see Ken tucky presented as the centre column of the united Western Democracy, bearing aloft the sacred standard of civil liber ty, untarnished and untorn by the fiercest struggles of its enemies to prostrate it.
