-. The ConstitvutioxaL DeMocaacy.—
cies The copperheads have entered the contest .
" with wo settled principles asahe ground of
“their faith. Tt is trae that the Chicago
Convention adopted a platform in which the
entire war js claimed aa a failure, nnd the
cessation of hostilities is udvoeated. The
sum of the coppethend faith, ss enunciated
in the Chicago platform, is ‘‘peace on sny
terms’ which would disgrace the nation
~ jn thie eyes of the civilized world. McClellan in his letter of acceptance gives tis a
kind of chowder composed of o layer of
peace and a layer of war, His letter is
neither one thing or the other. The object
of the copperhead party and their candidate
séerhs to have been to unite all the elements
of opposition to the present Administration
irrespective of principle. They knew well
that if the issue of penee on rebel terms or
war were presented to the people of the
United States the copperbeads would not
command a corporal’s guard inthe contest.
___Their speakers upon the stamp in one
place will advocate # more vigorous prosecution of the war, ond tell the peuple the only
way to secure this is by eletting McClellan.
In another they will say that the Bouth never. can be conquered, and the only way to
secure peace is to elect MeClellen and give
the rebels their independency. In one
place they advocate a Pacific Republic, ns
was done on Saturday nightat Temperance
Hall, in this city. In another they: tell that
they love the Union and desire to see it reestablished. One copperhead orator will
— tell us, “The South is fighting to get back
into the Union,” and from the éamie stump .
‘another will say, “You have tried wart lor
four years snd accomplished nothing. You
must acknowledge their independence io the
the end, why not do it nowt” And al!
these thinga are claimed aa the principles
of the Constitutions! Democrsey. It seems
that inconsistency is the jewel of the De~
tmocracy of to-day.
There wae a tiwe when the Democratic
party entered the lists. with definite princi.
plea—with a creed upon which no question as tote weaning could be raised, ‘but
that day is past. ‘The old naine aud fame
has been tarnished and it has been prostituted to the cnuso of treason, At heart, the}
loade raw! the copperhead party are as much
the friends of rebellion.as the ten who are
fighting ia the armwa of Davis, without their
courage, ‘I hey aie endeavoring t@ blind the
people to their real object by invonsistency.
They canwot rely upon their present faith,
but dwell upon the past glory of the Democ.
racy The copperhead party of to-day ia lhe
& corrupt, drunken bloat, whe bae seunded
he depthe of degradation, boasting of the
glory nnd greatness of bis “ancestry, The
"ad of the Demoeracy is departed It has
‘ome the shield to bide the heart of
treason. : °
STEPUEN A. DovG.as’ Orinion.—The
following eXtract is trom aspeech delivered
by Stephen A. Douglas before the members
of the Illinios Legislature a short time prior
‘to hie death, will show what be thought to
be the duty of Democrats. We ask his
former supporters, who até tiow halting butween two opinions, to read it: “Now petmit the te say to the assemblid Representas
tives and Benators of our beloved State,
compyesed of inen of both politica! parties, in
my opinion it ie yolir duty to lay aside, tor
the time being; your party creeds and party
platforms; to dispense with your party organizations and. partisan appeals; to forget
that you were ever divided, until you haw
rescued the Government aud this country
from their aseuilant. When thie parawount
duty shall have.been performed, it will be
. Proper for vavh of ue to resuune our respective
political pusitieas, according to our own

“Narrative of Captain Kennedy's losing bis
vesael, and his distresses afterwards,” the
gallant writer esys: “I cannot conclude without making mention of the great advantage
I received from souking my clothes twice a
day in anlt watet, aud puting thew on with.
out wringing. To thiadisc overy I may witb
justice attribute the pfeacrvation of my own
life, and the lives of six other persone wi.o
must have perished if it had not been put
to use. The water absorbed through the
pores of the skin produced m every respect
the some effect as would have reauited from
the moderate drinking of any liquid. The
saline particles, however,which remained
in our clothes, becoming erusted with the
heat of the sun and that of eur bodivs, Iscerated our akins, and were otherwise jnconvenient ; but we found. by washing vut theee
particles, and frequently wetting our clothes,
without wringing, twiee in tne course of the
day, the shin became well in a short time.
Alter these operations, we uniformly found
that the drought went off, and the parched
tongue Was cured in a few minutes after
bathing and washing our clothes ; and at the

nourishment. Four persons in the beat,
