No man, who understands what Democracy means, would ever think of a-king questions that he (ears and sees answered daily in the negative in'the expressions of the people in defense of free coverument. Such men Jlo not understand that the overthrow of the d mie addressed1 bv Manney, jiind others, on matters pertaining to this Road. Democracy would be the overthrow of liberty itself. They do not understand that it is to the true Democracy we owe ttie liberty and frtedom we enjoy, and that these wonld nave .been louij ago overthrown but for the manful maintain- ance of the principles upon which our liberties are based aa expressed in the creed and doctrines ofthe genuine and true Democracy. , The party name may be substituted by another, but as long as any political pnrty exists devoted to the sublime p;i!eiples of free government, that party is an organi zation of Deuiicraey. We cny call it Conservative, Whig or what not, for the sake of policy, and yet the party, adher ing to these principles, is but the embodi ment of Democracy pure and simple. We maiy get away from Democracy as a party nitne, but we cannot cet awav iroin camped alt night to attack early in the morn ing,! but the Indiana had left then) and bad gone o another Fort, called Lin4iy's, to lake it, bit were repulsed. !
