1562 - L. Sept. 12:4/4 - A grand rally was held in the National hall
Sept. 10 by the Democrats. A small crowd of "Copperheads" attended.
"Of its soundness on all Copperhead principles there could be no doubt,
from the cheering at every argument for peace, and every sneer for the
'n****r' soldiers." The "Temperance" band was there, and being more
loyal than the crowd, played "The Star Spangled Banner" and "The Red
White and Blue."
The meeting was opened by a series of resolutions which started with
a denunciation of the present administration, and declared that their
only hope lies in a change of administration. Another resolution de-
clared that the object of the war sluould be the "Union as it was and
the constitution as it is." The resolutions were unanimously adopted.

1569 - L Oct. 28:4/5 - The Demccracy of the third, fourth, fifth, and
sixth wards met last night at Euclid and Brownell sts. with lanterns,
banners, and music, and proceeded to the home of Mr. Noble. On arriving,
the band played the "Star Spangled Banner" and gave three cheers for
Noble. Their next stop was at the residence of the Hon. H. B. Payne
and the band serenaded him with "When the Cruel War is Over." After the
cheering ceased, Payne congratulated the crowd on the mighty reduction
of the "Abolition" majorities, and said that one more such victory as
that of the late election would lay the Abolitionists at the feet of
the Democrats. He also told them that they must not relax until McClellan
is elected. At the conclusion of Mr. Payne's speech, the crowd proceed-
ed to the home of F. T. Backus. This worthy gentleman held forth in
speech until most all of the lanterns burned out, and tired serenaders
lost their enthusiasm. (24)
