To the Democracy of Ohio: Fellow Citizens: llavinp met for the purpose, amongst other things, l,to adopt such measures as tho exigencies of th hour may seem to demand for the welfare of our common country," we feel it to le a duty which we cannot ignore or thrust aside, to address you briefly but plainly and' truthfully upon the mummlout questions ot the day, and if possible stay the m id and f irious torrent of F(!nai'cisOT, which seems to be sweeping with almost irresist able force over the face of our onco happy ountry. We have iudecd fallen upon ' troublous times.'' Passion and prcjmliett seem to rule the hour. Reason and judgment have fie I throne and fanaticism aud U trais n sw.iy the scepter uu lisiurbod over t!;e public mind. Our Country, our Gov- the hopbful, in the4 very last throes of cx-uirinsr nature. In wiavcr direction the eye is turned ihc horizoii of our national eii'tonce is overcast with p.vtentiou cliiu'dg which human ivisJom and banian s 'iracity seini totally inadequate to pone trute or brush away. We are not the apologists for thP mistakes and f rrurs of the Administration in ihe prosecution of the war, nor do we ap prove of or sanction theicfowl opposition which is being brought to bear against the legitimate as well a the doublfal powers .he government to put down thd rebellion "suppress the insurrection,'' and g'.'iforce obeJieu.'e to tho Constitution and the lav'8 of tho land; and when wo are a,kt?d to sane-ti iu and approve, by tho exe. iUa of a aiost soleiuu and importaut privilege, the elective franchise, that action., aud, as we tli k aud believe, to use no harsher term, m.'nguided opposition, which from the very bi 'inuing has studiously and persistently opposed everj effort put forth to save the life of the nation: we do most earnestly, yet calmly and deliberately, enter our solcmu protest against it, and call upon and earnestly entreat iH candid men to reflect, before voting for the very embodiment of this opposition. You, ns well as we, are called upon by the "imperative" voice of a Constitution to vote for C. L. Vallaudighatti for Oovern-o:1 of the State of Ohio. Wtf admit the full force aud effect of this call; it comes to us clothed with tho power an J prestige of party ties and par'y feality; it conies to us ladened with the associations of former years, but all these cannot be made to avail a feather's weight, wheu our country, our kindred, and the future of this Republic are at stake. Believing, as we do, that the action of the Convention in nominating Mr. Vallandigham was tt grand mistake, and one which, if approved and sanction ed by th people at the polls, will seriously e .lan.r tho perpetuity of our Govern mem; we nave leit ana now :eui ii our uu ty, to withhold from him our support, ami thua clear our skirts ol all complicity with the agency by which it is brought about. "Aud in so in doing, wo staud by the doctrines advocated by Douglas, by every Democratic member of Congress from Ohio, and by the entire Democracy of tho North, except Mr. Vallandigham aud a small faction, prior to Mr. Vallandigham's nomination for Governor, and in no wise affiliate with, or approve of the doctrino of Abolitionism or Fanaticism of any kind. But self-respect as well as duty to yon, require that we should state briefly, and candidly, the reasons why wo are thus com pelled to withhold our votes from M,r. Val landigham, and which, perhaps, in ordi nary times we might pass by in silence even j if unable to approve, for the reason that it such views, situougn entenainea tj tu andidate would never tiud au opportunity t o Is made uflective, snd could not iuflu-enoe tlie yeople of other States, not then, as now, in rebellion. First. We cauuotsustain Mr. Vallandig bun, becausi io his speech in Congress, Fob. 20, 18GI, he said. "It is vuin to tell mc thst States cannot secede. Seven States have seceded. In tUrte mouths their agents and comtnission-ers will return from Europe with th recognition of Great Britian and Trance, sua of the other powers ot the Continent," (Record, p. 76). AyaiD, '-Settf-sion las teen tried and has provid a speedy and terrible success-The practicability of doing it aud the way to Uo it have beeu established." (ltecord, p, fe7). Again, "Ifany one or more of the States of this Union should secede for lesson ot the sufficiency of which, before God and the Kreat tribunal of history, they nloDe ui.iy judge much us 1 should depiore it, 1 never would as a Reprcttntrtivu in the Congress of the United States, vote ono dollar of money whereby one drop of American blood should Le shed in a civil war" Record, p 91). Again,- "There is not a man in this linilQA fit tn h O rannantit.tl. 1. 7 t , i does not know that the South cannot be foi'cel to yield obedience to your laws aud authority again." Again, "Accordingly I have not voted for any army or navy bill.nor any army or nary appropriation bill, since the meeting of Congress on the lib of July, 18G1." (Uecord, page 147). Again, "Stop fighting, make an armis tice and forms! treaty, Withdraw vour 1 armies from the icceded states. Recall your fleets, brake up your blockade, 4c, 4c." (Page 200) To these and kindered sentiments held and uttered by Mr. Vallandigham from the beginning of our troubles, and now prominendy thrust forward by him, we cannot subscribe, believing them to beanti-Democratic and subversive of the Gov eminent au.l all the best interests of the poople. We prefer rather to ail here to the aucient landmarks so truthfully point-out, and firmly maintained by Andrew Jackson, in hiscontest with South Carolina in 1S32, as evinced by the following declaration of principles found in bis Trod?-mation of December 11th, 1832, and his Message of January 17th, 1838. "I consider," says Gen. Jackson, "the powsr to auuul a law of the United States assumed by one State, to be incompatible with the existence of the Union, contradicted expressly by the Jetter of the Constitution. ;iHauthoriaJ by its spirit, unconaistont Willi every principle on which lt is lounuei an l destruc- tive of the great object for which it was formed. Th's right to secede is deduced from the n.

'' "Sece-sinn, like any other revolutionary act, may bo morally justified by the extremity of oppressions, but to call it i constitutional right, is cou fouuoingthe nmaning of terms, and can only be done through gross error." "Mcu of the best intentions and soundest views may differ iu the construction of some parts of the Constitution; bat there are othars on which uispas-imate refluc. tiou can leave no doulit. Of this oatrtro, appears tobe the assumed right of sect siou. "The right of the people of a single State to absolve thrniieivcs at will und without the consent of the other States, from tho most solemn obligation, and hazard the liberty and liappiucs of Ihe mill ions composing this Union, cannot bojac knwludged. Such autlionty is believed 'o be utterly repugnant both to the precepts Ujiou which the General Government is constituted au.l the objects which .t is expressly formed to attain ) Again. General Jaeknon, speaking of tho riglit and duty of the Government to use forces to praveut secession, says: 'No oue believes that any right exists iu a single oia'e io iutoib au me otner in these ami countless other evils contrary to engagements solemnly made- Every one must see that tlie other butes inself-de-I'cnco, mu-it oppose itftit all hazrrus. A 'am, speaking jt the ordinance pass ed by tho South Carolina Convention, he says: This solemn denunciation of the laws and authority of tho United States has been followed up by a series of acts on the part of tho authorities of that &ate, which manifest a aetcrmination to render inevitable a resort to those measures of self-defonce,which the paramount duty of! the rederal Government requires. It is quite uunocessary to multiplp quotations Irom eminent statesmen upon the subject. The treat heaftof the American l I - 4. .1.. J ? l . 0ple, is advert to the doctrines, bu uu alterably determiued to resist U stall has- - sblo as this, that we find the candidate of the party with which it has always been our pride so act defiantly advocating the right of Recession tha fact of secession, and the want of Constitutional power on the part of the General Government to pre-vont it by force; and disf'nctly and squarely planting himself on the doctrine of the inability of the nation to save itself from self-destruction, for the want of both constitutional and physical power, and calling upon the government to withdraw the army from what Le is pleased to call the seceded States and hold an armistice with the rebels in arms, ire up the Mississippi, break up the blockade, call home the fleets, and thus, give up all the vantag ground which our brave soldiers have wou at the cost of so much blood and treasure. Were it not, we say, for all this we might be justifiable in reraoining silent Is is denied that this is Ma. Val- landigham's position? Bead his ltecord, published and put forth under his imme diate sanction, and spread broadcast over all the State. It is said that Mr. Vallan-digham's arrest, trial and banishment was a violation of tha Consttiutional rights of the citizen, ana that this act of tho Administration must be rcbukodby electing Mr. Vallandigham Governor of Ohio. (Almost th identical doctrines advocated by the extremists of the opposite party at the beginning of the war.) It is aiso said that the rimnncipation Proclamation is contrary to the letter and spirit of the Federal Constitution, and that this war is being waved for the freedom of the negro, and therefore the war ought to cease at once. J here might be some force in thefe arguments if Mr. V's conduct aud opinions were at all influenced . by such consi lcrations; but be it remembered that all the expressed opinions of Mr V. herein published, were announced prior to tbo issuing of the Proclamation or his arrest. For those, end other equally satisfactory reasons, we feel constaaiued to wuun,"u .ou.r 'upportirom iir. v ., tiiongn ... " f" - " ticket in the field. Now.

From th 8poiI C.irrpnii4(in of tha ton ion Sail .!. New York, March 23'. Teople in England do not understand, and never hnve rightly understood, the nature and origin of that tremendous do-votion to the Union of which we have heard so much during the past two yeurs. and of which the Northern people has given such terrible proofs. It is partly, no doubt, due to tho fact that it is associated la their minds with that national power and greatness, the passion for which so many writers consider reprehensible in an American, though in an Englishman they deem it worthy of admiration. And it is partly due also to the remembrance and deep appreciation of tho bles.-incs which they have enjoyed under its shadow, the peace, plonty, prospeiity, security, and liberty, which it has bestowed on three cen-orations. But it is due, iu a still greater degree than to any of these thiugs. to the theory which all Americans hold, but which very few Englishmen soem oven able to understand that tho secession ol a sinsrle State from tlio Confederation w, u'd, if acceded toby the others, be a com-pleto sev. rnncc of toe Federal bond cvon between all those remaining iu the Union; that it would release them from all nblii:a tions under lhe cniibtitu'ioii, and set ihe whole thirty-three adrift upon sn sna ol confusion, with little or no prospect or probability cf their even being reunited. Tlie calmest and most conservative men in the community are for this reason as anxious to prosecute the war to the jMiint either of complete success or of complete exhaustion, as tho most riirrrd abolitionist.
