McDONALD, of Columbia Hill, [ica aeeeeaalainemee aienieeieenniemnemememan anne! 4 -. 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 .

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.
