Political Meeting
In Tcnpnr«MM Hall, CdaBibiHy on
Saturday night Sept. 8U1. Marcellos
Ducolas, Ksq., Elector for U»o Di»-
t»»*a, lit..11. Ji. Maker, Eh]., of Bus-
Rcll county, Ala., and perhaps other
distinguished speakers from a distance,
will attend and address the meeting.
Mr, Dougina oli tbe Revolutionary Issue.
We copy from (be New Vork Ileru/d a
rtport of a very jntereaiing portion of Judge
Douglas’ speech el Norfolk, Va. It wilt be
•een that tbe ■eceaeiooiate forced upon him
tbrir revolutionary i»»ue of violent re«i#t-
ence to tbe inauguration of Lincoln, or
eeccaainn ae a consequence of bis election,
and that Duuglaa met the ierue boldly and
defiantly. Hie answer to the first question,
we need hardly a ay, we fully approve. We
have on several occasions published the
same views. Dul in reference to tbe second
query, we think that Douglas might well
have answered, in tbe evasive language ef
the Timet, “*ufficient unto the day is the
sail thereof.’' fehould seee»»ion actually
follow the election of a Mark Republican,
the question of enforcing allegiance will
come up before Lincoln's Administration,
not before Douglas in any official capacity;
and, whatever may be our general views of
the necessity of enforcing obedience to tbe
constitution and laws, a movement so redi.
cal and uirmrnioua as that must necessarily
ba regarded in connection with character
istics and incidents not now to ba foreseen.
Tbe evils of separation (great as they un
doubtedly must be) may be lees (ban those
that will attend an effort to re-eatabliah by
force a disrupted Union. And tbe propri
ety, as well ae the policy, of the attempt
will depend upon the temper of tbe feoutb*
cm people. We are resisting, and shell
resist, any movement contemplating dievo.
luiion as a consequence of Lincoln's elec
tion ; but if the disruption is effected by
the clearly expressed determination ol our
ffitale (which, we take it for granted, cou'd
not bn without the co-operation of other
Hnofhern States), we rha'I have discharged
our duty to the Union by resisting the step,
anJ our sjmpaiby as well ae our destiny
will bn with the alienated South. Still, a
fearful responsibility will rest on those
who, for insufficient cau*e, shall have pre
cipitated these rttstes into revolution and
inflam'd their people to such an act of
passion end folly.
iiut the warning voice of Douglas ad
monishes us—-if any one among us needed
ettrh an admonition—that a revolution of
tb;a kind cannot be carried out without
violence end war. The people of the
Northern Htstea wiil be united, almost
without ncsption, in support of his views,
and an Administration thus backrd could
not, if it would, submit to a disruption of
the Government without Eh effort to re
assert its authority. Happily, the indica
tions of the canvese assure ua that the
contingency upon which ibis threat* tied
revolution ie to hinge ctn hardly occur.
The union of conservative men in New
York and other Northern fettles for the
driest of Lincoln promises effectually to
jtU|.»«e ol hit branch of aectional agitators.
It davolvea upon lb# ptopls of the South to
give a quietus to the other wing of revolu
tionists and disorganizes, and this can
only be done by au emphatic popular rebuke
of John C. Breckinridge and bie supporters.
Douglas demands that lireckinridge shall
he made to answer these queriee ae expli
citly as he haa responded to them; and aa
they wero propounded by the friends of
lireckinridge, the latter must of course
"lace the music" in his turn.
Ittluii nr Mlwvary In lbs District.
The Times persists in asserting that the
only “condition" upon which John Dell
expressed his willingness to sea slavery
abolished in tbe Distiicl of Columbia, was
that the free negroes should bo removed or
controlled. A half column of that paper
would be all the space required to lay before
its readers Mr. ilell'e “conditions" in his
own language. We have already published
them, end we ask our readors to refer to
the extract to see if we do not faithfully
state them in this brief analysis: Mi. Util
declared tbet all the Northern people except
• few “fanatics" then avowed that slavery
in the District uf Columbia was tbe “only
remaining ground of contention—the only
remaining point of objection and assault on
tbe part of the anti-slavery North"; and
he aahi that he would be willing to see
slavery abolished there "if tbe sentiment of
tha adjacent feiatea and of tho feouth gen
erally were Ires ir flamed"—“In order to test
the determination of the North in rrgaid
to any further nml continued aggression
upon feuulhrrn feelings and the security of
feouibern property"—to give the South, if
tbe North persisted, “the option of deciding
their own destiny without further delay"—
and that “the whole country South might
know what is the farthest limit to which
th«* North Intend to proas the anti-slavery
pulley." It will thus be seen that hit chief | p*»'y
“condition" was that it was to be an end
of enti>al>very agitation, or that further
aeitatioti afreuid bo regarded as such a vio
lation of tbe Irrms of the conceseiou at to
justify the feouth in “deciding he- own
destiny with ut lurlb* r delay."
Ii is upon this extract alone that the
Timit bases its assertion that Mr Beil pro*
posed to lake away the negro property of
the pe. |ds ol the District against their will
and “give uot a dollar back by way of
remuneration" I Even feeward and (he
other “fanatics" iu tha feenata did not at
that lime propose to abolish slavery in the
District without remuneration. On tha 10th
of September, 1850, Mr. feeward offered aa
a substitute lor the bill upon which Mr.
Drll made this speech, a bill submitting to
a vo e of tbe peopla of tha District tha
question of “emancipation" or “no acaan>
cipation," and providing that in case lb*
pa<>ple voted fur emancipation, the slave
holders of tbe Distriot should be paid from
tbe Federal Treasury “such damages aa
they shall suffsr by the passage ol tbie
bill." Even this substitute ot feeward\
received uo support from Mr. Dell; it was
rejected bj the feenata on the Uth Hcptem-
ber, Mr. Hell voting against it. I*
14th, two days alleiwaida, Mr. Dell »«.»*..
tbe speech alluded to, and it must be regar
ded as giving tha reason# lor hi# raluaal le
suppoit Harvard's substitute—said reasons

Ill View ot thrss Tacts, il not this charge
against Mi. Dell the extrema of pa<<y
blindness and prejudice 1
TRu Corner Mouse.
Wo do not at all objeel to tbo Corner
Stone pitching in aa strong ae it pleases in |
tbe fight against Dell and Kvercti—we pre
fer an neowed foe, who show* himself end
hie colors, to an “adder in tha path" who
etinga unexpectedly. And we really think |
that tbe Corner Slone, being an avowed
disunion paper, can more consistently sue- !
tain the eeeedera end their purposes, as *
disclosed by Too mb*, Cobb, Elam, the
Timer, etc., then any press tbit profesoe# e
desire te maintain tbe Union. Du», in its
several bitter editorial* against Mr. Dell (it (
bed not a sentence egainal any other can
didate) ifl its last issue, it committed eome
mistake* to Which we with to call its j
attention. ,
First in Ra article denouncing tbe
Douglas end Dell fos : on in New York
against Lincoln, it asserts that “Fremont
beat Ducbanen and Fillmore in that Hlate,
and, if wa remember rightly, he received
more votes then both of them together,"
etc. Uaebanan and Fillmora together re
ceived only about 46,000 more votes then
Fremont in Now York; an-J in the feiate
election of last year the fusion ticket of the
Democracy and Opposition beat the Black
Republicans—tbe nominees selected by the
Opposition from both tho other tickets
Using elected. The Doughs end Dell men
now entertain no doubt of carrying New
York in November, even if tbe little squad
of lireckinridge Democrats go over directly
to Lineoln, a* eome of them will.
Second—Mr. Van Duran’s letter npon
• subject of the abolition of slavery in
tbe District of Columbia, written when lie
candidate in 1830, contained no such
extract as the Corner Slone imputes to it.
fiuren, iu that letter, refused (o
I. r"»« 10
slavery in tha District, and said that he
would givo "no pledges," though specially
urged and required so to do ; and the whole
Democratic party of the country supported
him with this letter fresh from hit pen. In
1802, the whole Democratic parly supported
Hon. Wm. R. King, of Ala., for tbe Vice
Presidency, and be had stood side by side
ilh Mr. Dell, two years previous, in bis
hole course in reference to the bill al>ol-
isbiug tbe slave trade in the District—Mr.
King, like Mr. Dell, emphatically declaring
that he wee in favor of putting an end to
tbe clave trade in tbe District, end, like
Mr. Dell, finally refusing to vote for tbe bill
because it provided for the emancipation ot
tbe negroes of the traders. In 1860, again,
he whole Democratic parly of the country
tupported for tbe Presidency James Uucb-
man, wbo has always held that Congress
bad power to abolish slavery in the District,
and tha Corner Stunt nevor once raised
this objection against Aim.
Third—John Dell never said that be
iuld favor the abolition of slavery in the
District of Columbia, except upon condi
tions worth vastly more to the feouth than
her damage by that concession; and be
never pro|*o*ed or voted for a bill restricting
slavery there or anywhere e/te. He is tbe
inly candidate for tbe Presidency who ever,
m the floor of Congress, defended African
Isvery ae right in iltelf and indispensable
to tho prosperity of tbe whole countiy.
>3r The Cuhimbue Enquirer did not ad-
iae, but lavorod the union of the Douglas
nd Dell men in Georgia upon one electoral
ticket. It said thore was sn “urgency" lor
tho coalmen Had it been done, the vote
ol Georgia would have been divided beiw.
Douglas and Dell in the Electoral College,
•apposing they bad a vote. To this extant,
the Enquirer and olhar oppoektion presses
would have contributed iu the election ol
pouglae. In a back issue ol ihc Enauirer
it the following : “but we can aeo no differ
ence between them (Seward and Douglas)
and bie no more opposed to tho election ol
ibe one than ilia oilier." Comment is
ueoless'.— Timet.
At Die ilmc •»**•" •"* — • J ", ’
a bqat Douglas, we were endeavor
ing toA-^t out of tbe Timet *n expression
for or'#fe*inst him. Don’t our readers *11
remember the cross-questioning, the coax
ing and taunts which we used to make the
Timet come out from its cover end taka
position for or against Douglas ? It wss
all unsuccessful, however. Our neighbor
hid not a word to say against Douglas
then, but was preparing quietly to fall into
bis support if he bad been nominated
under other circumstances than those that
transpired nt Baltimore. And Dough
no worse now then bo was thon. This
proves that the Timet' present oppotiii-m
to llouglsa Is not based on conlrrding
principle, but is a dictalo of party disci
pline only.
We neither urged nor denounced the
proposition for a fusios between tho Dell
and Douglas parties h» Georgia. We aakd
that it could ba julifled by tha “peculiar
urgency" of our situation in Oeorgia—i
majority over al opposition being required
to slrct tbe Bell or Douglas Electors by
the people, •mi the Legislature stocked
• gainst them. By opposing each other,
they would gl*# the ©lection to the Legis
lature, already chosen end favorable to
Breckinridge- Wo ihrreloro suggested
the consideration of the question whelh
er it was better for the Dell men U
lose all the Electors or to divide wiifc
Dnuglss. We regarded it ae a qu* ation of
expediency merely, because it we theriby
aided in obtaining five Electoral vc‘ -
Douglas and iquatter sovereignty, wa would

five vote* gained for Dell. Doth our friends

Ihe Democracy cannot beat tbe Black Ke-
