TRAITORS.

Democrats, beware of the treachery and frauds of one or two pretended democrats, who, having grown rich from office received by them at the hands of the Democracy of Old Portage, now seek to ruin their friends and defeat the democratic ticket, because they cannot longer dictate the action of the party and thus continue themselves in office. Let them truckle with the other parties if they desire, but let no democrat be deceived or SOLD by them.

DEMOCRATS. STAND TO YOUR GUNS!

In the great battle to be fought to-morrow, let the Democracy rally to a man, and present a firm, undivided, unbroken front to the enemy. Give them no aid and comfort. Remember that while "they love the treason they despise the traitor."
