Ect Southern Men Read and Reflect.
That great, just and far-seeing man,
John C. Calhoun, proposed, in 1860 , a
scheme by which the equilibrium of free
and slave States should be preserved. —
This originated in his intense desire to
protect his section against the wild torrent
of fanaticism, which, proceeding to the
North, seemed destined to sweep away the
restraints of the Constitution and the
rights of the South or, failing in that to
destroy the Union itself- We do not pro
pose to give Calhoun’s argument. Our
object is to exhibit, Mr. Douglas’ in reply.
Wc qilote from Mr. Douglas’ speech.
See A pp. Con. Gfabc, 1850, vol. part
l, page-STI.
‘‘l have already had occasion to remark
that at the time of the adoption of the
Constitution there were twelve (slave
States) and six of them have since abol
ished slavery. This fact shows that tlic
came of freedom has steadily and firmly j
advanced, white slaver// has receded in the
sani” ratio. ]Ve look forward with confi
dence to the tinie when Delaware, Virginia,
Maryland, Kentucky and Mirsouri, and
prebably North Carolina and Tennessee,
mill adopt one gradual system of emanci
pation, under the operation of which those
States must, in the progress of time, be
Free.”
“Then, sir, the position of the Senator
from South Carolina is entirely impractic
able. It is also inadmissible, if practicable.
It would revolutionize the fundamental
principles of the government. It would de
stroy the great principle of popular equality
( not popular sovereignty) which must nec- I
Ciwi l y from the basis of all institutions.— j
It would hr a retrograde movement in an
,tqe, of progress that would astonish the
world,” so amend the Constitution as
to preserve an equilibrium between the
slave and free States.) — App. Con. Globe
1850, vol. 12, part 1, page 871.
Can the man wh® uttered such senti
ments, be a friend to the institution of
slavery? €% astonishing that the South
-should have, once, been so devotedly the
friend of such a man. We c.fhnot account
for it but in one of these ways: First, what
Mr. Douglas said was lost sight of in the
great cry of Union in 1850. Second, the
(unpopularity of Mr. Calhoun under the
•charges so persistently and unjustly made
that he was an enemy of the Union: —
Third, that the South was blinded to the
true sentiments of Douglas by his many
vague generalities of expression which
seemed t® present him to the country, if
a:ot a friend to the institution of slavery,
as one who would at least defend the con
stitutional rights of the people of the
South.
The eyes of the people of our section
are becoming unsealel. Mr. Douglas is
tso longer the oeiled prophet ofKhorassan.
TThc great issues of the day are exposing
him in his political deformity, and proving
(that his pretended friendship existed only
(under the garb of glaring ‘and deceitful
-profession. To admit any argument, for
the equilibrium of the free and slave States
would, in Mr. Douglas’ opinion, “be a re
trograde nnvnnvit that would astonish the
world !” “A retrograde movement!!” —
Why ? Because it would be, in his opin
ion, so manifestly wrong! Why wrong?
Because slavery is unj us’, barbarous and
.cruel. Is that a fair inference from his
.language ? Is it not ? llow else would
-she world be astonished at the movement?
It is no trivial thing that can astonish the
-world. In morals, or politics, it must be
graed negation, and when it is retrograde
it must be a horrid departure from the
progress ofhumanitarianism, or civilization.
Such, in Mr. Douglas’ opinion, would be
the admission a shoe. State for every
free State into the Union. Such a plan
as that would astonish the world, and
work indignant madness in Mr. Douglas’
Ai&fTslavery bosom. Southern men, will
.you become his wilful followers in this
(track of hostility to your rights ? to your
power? to your honor ? to your safety?
You must answer these questions with

Letter from Secretary Cobb.
[From the Columbus Times.)
Washington City, July 14th, 1860
Gentlemen : I sincerely wish it was in my
power to respond at once to your kind and
flattering request to address my fcllow
(eitizens of Columbus and vicinity.
Jt would afford me gaueh pleasur-t i meet
them at this time. I regard the present
contest as one vising far above the ordina
ry party struggles, through which we have
heretofore passed, It involve the future
destiny of the South. It is a question of
right, justice and equality on the one hand
and wrong and degredation on the other.
Tt is the triumph of constitutional princi
ples in the election of Breckinridge and
Dane, or the declaration of war upon the
Constitution and the rights of the South
by the election of Lincoln & Hamlin. This
is the issue that has to be met, and our
people should look the danger full in the
face, and govern their actions accordingly.
The part wliidi the supporters of Douglas
and Johnson at the South take in the con
test, is only important in view of the
strength it gives the Black Bepublicans of
the North, by weakening the only party
and the only candidates who can, by any
possibility, defeat this treasonable, abolition
organization. Surely, the recent course
of Mr. Douglas, and the present position
of his frieuds at the North, present no
claim to Southern gratitude or Southern
confidence that should induce, on their
part, a support of his claims to the Presi
dency at such a sacrifice of their rights
and interests. His withdrawal from the
contest would at once ensure the success
of Breckinridge and the triumph of con
stitutional principles, whilst his continu
ance in the field gives aid and encourage
ment to the enemies of democracy and the
of the south. T T ntlcr these cir
cumstances —apart from the manifold ob
jections to the political doctrines which
Mr. Douglas and his faction seek to force
upon us—it seems clear beyond dispute or
question, that there should be a united
and earnest effort on the part of the South
15 snpport of the only candidates who are
aifctitled to her confidence, and at the same
-time 4'ave the slightest prospect of elec-
To urge and press upon my fellow-citi
zens of Georgia these considerations, in
favor of the election of Breckinridge and
Lane—to unite my counsels with theirs,
to ward off the dangers which treaten our
present peace and future prosperity to con
tribute my efforts to the work of preserv
ing the constitution from the ruthless as
saults of its open and secret enemies—to
join my voico-with those who proclaim to
the country the firm, fixed and unalterable
phpose of the South to maintain her “
equality in the Union,” and to recognize
as worthy of her loyalty and support no
government that does not guarantee that
to my mind afield of
duty upon which I would gladly enter.—
My heart is in the contest, and you may
rest assured that I deeply regret my ina
bility at once to enter ttye panvass, and
that, too, upon the soil of my native State.
I am, very truly, yours, &c.,

The Platform.
1. That the government of a Territory, organised
ly an act of Congress, is provisional and tempora
ry, and during its existence all citizens of the ll
nited States have an equal right to settle with their
property in the Territory, without, their rights, ei
ther of person or property, being destroyed or injur
ed by Congressional or Territorial legislation.
2. That it is the duty of the Federal Government
in all its departments, to protect the rights of per
sons and property, in the Territories and wherever
else its constitutional authority extends.
3. That when the settlers in a Territory, having
an adequate population form a State constitution,
the right of sovereignty commences, and being
const! mil ted by their admission ‘into the federal
Union, whether its constitution prohibits or recog
nizes thy institution e s slavery.
Decision of the Supreme Court.
‘•The Territory being a part of the United State?
the Government anil the citizen both enter it under
the authority of the Constitution, with their respec
tive rights defined and marked out; anti the Feder
al Government can exercise no power over his
person or propeety beyond what that instrncment
confers, nor lawfully deny any right which it has
reserved. * ® * ® *
“Tlie powers over person and property of which
we speak, are not only not granted to Congress,
hut are in express terms denied, and they are for
bidden to exercise them. And this prohibition is
not confined to the States, but tiic words arc gener
al, and extend to the whole territory over which
the constitution gives it power to legislate, includ
ing those purl lona of it remaining under terrritorial
government, as well as that covered by States. It
is total absence of power everywhere within the
dominion of the United States, and places the citi
zens of a Territory, so far as those rights are con
cerned. on the same footing with citizens of the
States, and guards them as firmly and plainly a
gainst any inroads which the General Government
might attempt under the plea of implied or inci
dental powers. And if Congress itself cannot do
this—if it is beyond the powers conferred on the
Federal Government—it will be admitted, we pre
sume, that it could not authorize a territorial gov
ernment to exercise them. It could confer no pow
er on any local government, established by its au
thority, to violate the provisions of the Constitu
tion.
•* a a ■# s -s ■*
And the Government, in express terms, is pledg
ed to protect it in all future time, if the slave es
capes from his owner. This is done in plain words
—too plain to be misunderstood. And no word
can be found in the Constitution which gives on
gross a greater power over slave property, or which
cutitles property of that kind to less protection
than property of any other description. The only
power conferred is the power coupled with the duty
of guarding and protecting the owner in his righls.”
Mr. Breckinridge’s Views
On Unfriendly Legislation.
“The fact that neither Congress nor a Territorial
Legislature can constitutionally exclude from, of
confiscate in a Territory, private property having
been judieally determined by the highest court in
the Uniicd State, I confess that t did not anticipate
the doctrine of unjetrndly territorial legislation in
regard to African Slaves. It has no warrant from
the Constitution, if we recognize the highest judical
interpretation of that instriiiueut.-FYuii7.-/or{ Speech
1S 59.
On Protection to Slavery.
So that in regard to every description of prop
erty. including ,States, recognized and regarded by
the Constitution, it is the duty of the courts of the
country to protect and guard it whenever the ques
tion idbronghtjbcfore them. * * *
But should the tim” ever arrive when a decision
of a competent court on a question of private right
is likely to fall for want of adequate remedies, to
execute it, those remedies, executive and legislative
if need be, shall lie offered, or government >* tt fail
ure —and from this conclusion I see no escape for
any just mind that uphold the authorities of the
country Franl.-fort .Speech, 185<J.
* 0 t> flf * Si
* * * Tito territorial Governments are
subordinate and temporary, and not sovereign;
lienee they cannot destroy or impair the rights of
person* or proportj. While they continue to he
Territories they are under the control of Congress ;
but the Constitution nowhere confers on any branch
..{ t! (i.,c,in.mii me po wt*T to il fscriui in -
ate against the rights of the States or the property
of their citizens in the Territories. It follows that
the citizens of all the States may enter the Territo
ries of the Union with their property—of whatever
kind—aid enjoy it during the Territorial condition
without let or hindcrenee, either by Congress or
by the subordinate Territorial Government.
These principles flow directly from the absence of
sovereignty in the Territorial governments, and
from the equality of the States. Indeed, they are
essential to that equality which is and ever has
been the vital principle of constitutional Union.—
Thoy have been settled legislatively—settled judi
cially—and are sustained by right reason. They

serve the Union.

Extract From Douglas’ Freeport Speech.
Lincoln’s question.
Can tlic people of the United States Territory,
in any lawful way.’against the wishes of any citi
zens of the United States; exclude slavery from
their limits prior to the formation of a State Con
stitution ?
Douglas’ answer.
“The next question propounded to me by Mr.
Lincoln is, can the people o'” a Territory, in any
lawful way, against the wishes of any citizen of
the United States, exclude slavery from their limits
prior to the formation of a State Constitution? I
answer emphatically, as Mr. Lincoln lias heard mo
answer a hundred times from every stump in Illi
nois, that in my opinion, the people of a Territory
can, by lawful means, exclude slavery from their
limits prior to a State Constitution ! Mr. Lincoln
knew that Iliad answered that question over and
over again. Ho heard me argue the Nebraska bill
on that principle all over tho State in 1854, and in
1855. and in 1856, awl he has no excuse for pre
tending to be in doubt as to my position on that
question. It matters not what the Supreme Court
may hereafter decide as to tiie abstract question,
whether slavery may or may not go into a Territory ‘
under the constitution ; the people have the lawful
means to introduce it or exclude it as they please,
for the reason that slavery cannot exist a day or an
hour anywhere, unless it is suppo; ted by local po
lice regulations. Those police regulations can only
lie established by local legislation, and if the peo
ple are opposed to slavery, they will elect represen
tatives to that body who will by unfriendly legis
lation, effectually prevent the introduction of it into
their midst. If on the contrary, they aro for it,
their legislation will favor its extension. Hence,
no matter wliat the decision of the Supreme Court
may be on the abstract question, still the right of
tile people to make a slavo territory or a free terri
tory, is perfeot and complete under the Nebraska
bill. I hope Mr. Lincoln deems my answer satis
factory on that point.”
Douglas an Emancipationist.
“Ihavcalredy had occasion to remark that at
the time of the adoption of the Constitution tbere
were twelve (slavo States) and six of them have
since abolished slavery. This fart shows that the
cause of frkkdou has steadily and jirmly advanced
while slavery has receded in the same ratio. Iff
look forward with coxpidkxck >o the TiitK when
Deleware. Virginia, Maryland. Kentucky and Mis
souri, and probably North Carolina and Tennessee
will adapt one gradual system of EMANCIPATION,
under the operation of which those States must, in
the progress of time, become free.”—Douglas’ Speech
of 1850.
The “Explanation.”
Oar respected neighbor of the Standard
responds to the inquiries in our last issue,
and gives a reason wliy lie “ considers ”
Douglas and Jolinsou the regular .Demo
cratic nominees. lie emphasizes “consid
ers” to show doubtless that lie distrusts
tlic soundness of tlic reason given. This
is well. It is the force of truth and is
some evidence that a glimmering per cap
tion of it survives the wreck, which squat
ter sovereignty has made of his Democra
cy. But to the “reason.”
“The regular convention proceeded to
nominate Douglas for President and Fitz
patrick for Vice President. The seceders
convention nominated Breckinridge Si Lane
This is our rear,on, Doctor, for considering
Douglas the regular nominee for President.
7/e was nominated by the * regular Demo
cratic Convention.”
A nomination made by a regular Con
vention is, therefore, necessarily “regular.”
Is that so Judge ? And will you assert
the proposition in that form ? If that is
not true, then your “explanation” must he
explained.
Suppose a bare majority had been left in
the convention at the Theatre, and a sim
ple majority of those left had made the
nomination, would that be regular and ob
ligatory upon the party ? Your “reason”
says yes. Will you reaffirm it ?
Again, suppose that a simple majority of
those left should be of the Van Burenwing
and finding they had the power should re
adopt the Buffalo Platform and nominate
Hale, Chase, Wilson oVMartin Van Buren,
(all old Democrats) would tho nomination
be “regular,” and demand your support
because of its “regularity?” Your “rea
son” answers j'cs, will you reaffirm it ? If
not your “explanation” must be explained.
Your reason makes the regularity of a
nomination depend exclusively upon the
regularity of the convention. Now sup
pose the convention in making the nomina- j
tion should violate all the party usages, j
should recklessly by the mere power of a
majority, depart from the rules adopted by
itself for its own government, in short sup
pose irregularity from beginning to end
should characterise its proceedings, be
en lisa of the ‘foul domination’ of an
unscrupulous nd packed majority, would
the regularity of tho Convention, make its
proceedings regular, And would your party
allegiance compel you to support the nomi
nees because of the regularity of their nomi
nation ?
Your “reason” makes your allegiance
due to party for its “regularity” and not
for its principles. A most dangerous and
mischievous policy may be inaugurated,
our dearest rights assailed, the constitution
of the country violated, tho country -itself
endangered, but if done by a regular Dem
ocratic Convention, your “reason” compels
your aid in the accomplishment of those
ends. Will you not concur with us that
your “reason” needs to he patched a little ?
It seems a regular convention makes a
regular nomination. We arc then narrow
ed down to the inquiry, what constitutes a
regular convention ? Is it to be composed
of Delegates from every State in the Un
ion, and must those delegates be in atten
dance ? If so, neither the convention which
nominate 1 Mr. Douglas, nor that which
nominated Mr. Breckinridge was regular.
Twenty-five States were represented in
tho ono, twenty-two in the other. If not
all the States then how many must be rep.
resented to make it regular ? One, two,
three, a dozen or a majority ? Wc desire
our esteemed cotemporary to inform us.
Ifitdoes not depend upon the number
of States represented, then does it depend
upon the regularity of the appointment of
the delegates ? If that is the criterion by
which the regularity of the convention is
to be determined, then the convention
which nominated Mr. Breckinridge is the
only regular convention, because that was
composed exclusively of delegates regular
ly appointed by the State Democratic or
ganizations. While that which nominated
Mr. Douglas was composed in part of del
egates appointed not only without the au
thority but in direct contravention of the
State organizations, and some of them raw
recruits, who all their life long had wared
against the party and its principles.
Does it depend, upon the regularity of
the call ? If so which was the convention
called ? A Democratic Convention was
called to nominate candidates for President
and Vice-President. It was called tomcet
at Charleston ; it failed to accomplish the
purpose for which it assembled; it adjour
ned to meet in Baltimore.
Did it adjourn to meet in the Theatre or
in the Institute Hall ? Was it regular in
one and irregular in the other ? If so
why? The convention which nominated
Breckinridge was presided over by the
President elected at Charleston, the other
chose anew President. The former, there
fore, preserved the original organization.
Each nominated candidates for President
and Vice-President in the accomplishment
of the object of tlic call, and in accordance
with the purpose for which the delegates
were appointed. In this respect, there
fore, neither convention has advantage of
the other.
We are of opinion therefore that you
will have to seek anew reason, Judge, for
your advocacy of Douglas. The one as
signed wont hold water.
A nomination to he regular must he in
accordance with party usage. When you
assert that Judge Douglas was nominated
according to the usages of the party, wc
shall be prepared to meet you. You say
you supported 31 r. Buchanan, upon the
same platform on which 3lr. Douglas is
now running ? Did you construe it as 3lr.
Buchanan then did, or as Douglas now
does ?
Wc cheerfully respond to your inquiry.
Neither Judge Douglas nor Mr. Breckin
ridge was nominated in accordance with
party usage. The one has no advantage of
the other in that respect, hut every’ Dem
ocrat is left perfectly free, as lie always
must be left if wc would preserve the puri
ty and moral intogri'y of the party, to de
termine his choice between the candidates
exclusively on principle.
Stephen A. Douglas—A Beautiful record
—A fit Man for Southern votes !
’The charge has been frequently made
j by Democrats that during the pendency of
the Lceompton Bill Stephen A. Douglas
intended, by his opposition to that hill, to
break up the party and carry its northern
wing over to the Black Republican camp.
llis strange and unaccountable opposition
to a measure, endorsed by the administra
tion, after he had advised the Convention
that originated the Lceompton Constitu
tion to submit the slavery clause alone to
tho people of Kansas, cannot be under
stood upon any other hypothesis. But we
arc not left to conjecture alone, as to the
motive that prompted his base desertion
of his party and the good of his country.
Developments made since that time, taken
in conjunction with hia manocuvcriugs du
ring the struggle over that Bill in Congress,
show beyond’ the shadow of a doubt that
it originated in subserviency of principle
to policy and the surrender of our rights to
retain his seat through Black Republican
influence, in the 11. S. Senate. He was
untrue to his honor—to the party of which
he was a recognized leader —to the Con
stitution of his country, in order to make
sure his election in the Black Republican
State of Illinois—in order that even that
vile party could find, in him. a fit repre
sentative man against the “slave-power.”
Wc do not, in this article, purpose to
speculate simply, but will bring to light
some facts not generally known to the peo
ple by which we will prove that Stephen
A. Douglas, at that time, meditated the
overthrow of tlic Democratic party, the
organization of a “Douglas party,” sec
tional in its objects, and entirely satisfac
tory to the feelings of the Black Republi
cans. The glittering prize of the Presi
dency could only be secured by bending
to the wave of fanaticism and the way
was closed did lie not succeed in retaining’
his position in the U. 8. Senate. This
! was the prize and the poliey was inaugura
! ted and faithfully pursued.
During the pendency of the Lceompton
! Bill we hear of 31 r. Douglas in close fel
lowship wrtli the Black Republicans of
that Congress, and so marked was his hssq-i
ciationwith those worthies that they claim
ed him as one of their number. All his ■
consultations were outside of the Demo- j
cratic party and were secretly and
ly conducted with those men —including]
Horace Grcely of the N. Y. Tribune. In !
proof of this, at that very time, the follow-J
ing dispatch to the Tribune from Wash
ington city, contained the astounding an
nouncement that:
“ The Jicjutblican Senators laid a consul
tation last night with Senator Douglas, at
his house, which, was satisfactory to both
parties ! !”
A gentleman writing to a member of
Congress upon this very point gives tiie
following :
Sill: Your favor of January 2 is re
ceived and oontonts noted. In reply, I
would say. that whilo in Washington lust
week, I was informed, by a prominent anti
responsible Democrat, who luid the means
of knowing, that Senator Wilson, and
other prominent Republicans in ami out
of Congress, during and after the discus
sion of the Lceompton constitution in
Congress, were frequently in private po
litical consultation at the house of Judge
Douglas; and I do know, that afterwards
the New York Tribune, did favor tho elec
tion of Judge Douglas to tho U. S. Sen
ate ; and that extracts from that Journal,
so favoring him, wore copied in several of
tho Democratic papers in the State of Illi
nois during the campaign of IBfjß.
I am prepared to give tho name of the
gentleman from whom I. received the in
formation, when it can have any practical
good effect.” G. W. RANEY.
So enthusiastic were his recent satte
lites that the notorious, black-hearted ab
olitionist, Anson Burlingame i* won over
and eulogizes him thus :
“I think it the first duty of Republicans
to extinguish the doughfaces, but I hold
it also their duty to bear testimony as to
the manner in which the Douglas men —
and they will pardon me forgiving them
the name of their gallant and gifted lead
er—to bear testimony to the manner in
which they have borne themselves. They
have kept the faith.” * * * * *
* * * * “I say it is due to them
that we should say that they have borne
the brunt of the battle, and that they,
whether from New York, Pensylvania, or
Illinois, have kept the whiteness of their
souls, and have made a record which was
lain in light; and if my voice can have
any weight with the young men of the
country where those men dwell, I should
say to them, ‘Stand by these mer. in all
your young enthusiasm. Stand by them
without distinction of party.’ ”
Even the i7e Wilson and Seward con
gratulated the Senator upon his noble fight
against the South—and the former said,
“Douglas is all right and will be with us !”
With whom? The great black Republican
party—to which he had lent all the ener
gies of his body and mind in order to dc
featra measure adopted by a democratic ad
ministration in favor of the South ! An

SrRi nof.ikld, Illinois,
* December 2()th, 1859.
I&EAR Sir : During the pendency of the
Lc%mpton hill in the House of Represen
tatives, in the spring of 1858, I saw sever
al letters from 3lr, Grcely to Republicans
in this State, commending the course of
3lr. Douglas in his opposition to the nefa
rious and wicked scheme of forcing a pro
slavcry constitution down the throats of an
outraged people. [The very expression
used by Douglas in his late Albany speech
—so applauded by Douglas organs. En.]
In one of those letters, directed to 3lr.
John O. Johnson, then writing in my of
fice, (that of superintendent of public in
struction,) 3L\ Greelv expressed it as his
decided opinion that both from motives
of policy and as a matter of strict justice
to 31r. Douglas himself, the Republicans
of Illinois ought to unite with the friends
of 3lr. Douglas in returning him to the
Senate. * * ****** *
W. 11. POWELL. I
The Cincinnati Enquirer, the Douglas
organ for Ohio, contained the following in
formation, which shows that in the strug
gle with Lincoln, Douglas had the co-opo
ration of the Black Republicans and that
his election was due. mainly, tosuch influ
ence :
“Lincoln's Opinion of Douglas’
CHANCE AT CHARLESTON, —William 11.
Gill, the editor of the Leavenworth (Kan
sas) Ilorald, lately travelled in Illinois
with Abraham Lincoln, Douglas* competi
tor for the Senate. 3lr. Gill says:
“ ‘We inquired of him what he thought
of 31 r. Douglas’ chances at Charleston.—
“Well,” he replied, “were it not for cer
tain matters that I know transpired, which
1 regarded at one time among the impossi
bilities, I would say he jstood no possible
chance I refer,” said he, “to the fact
that, in the Illinois contest with myself,
he had the sympathy and support of Gree
ly, of Burlingame and Wilson of 3lassachu
setts, and other leading Republicans.
To show more fully the feelings of Mr.
Douglas in regard to the South; the Lc
. compton nicasurc and the Democratic par
ty, wc here give what a correspondent of
the Chicago Journal wrote to that paper
in reference to the trying scenes of the
Lceompton struggle. To lend force to
the truth of the facts detailed, we will
state that, the letter wasycad in the House
of Representatives 18th March last, and
the member producing the letter said that
the author was “a gentleman well known
in the city of Washington, a respectable,
responsible and reliable man, and if Judge
Douglas desires his name I am authorized
to give it.” The name was never demanded
and the facts have not to this day, been de
nted by Mr. Douglas. 3Yca.sk the friends
of Mr. Douglas, South, to read and pon
der the facts here produced. If they have
any spirit that can kindle patriotism in
their bosoms, surely this will arouse it, and j
bring them to see the vile character of :
him they esteem so true to southern in- I
tenets- The letter is as follows :
“This train of thought carries me back
to the beginning of the Thirty-fifth Con
gress, when 3lr. Douglas broke from the
line of policy marked out by 3lr. Buchan
an for tlic Democracy and opposed the Le- :
compton constitution. He was under the j
lav,-socially and politically with the Dem- j
oerafs.. The remarkable expressions he j
used to make about his record, what he j
hath 1 done in the pa r ty to stop the progress j
of (la very and to advance freedom, and I
what lie purposed doing in the future to j
destroy the intentions of the slave power, j
wifrnever be erased from my memory, as I
th iy cannot be from the minds of hundreds
of'jthers who heard the same things.
•’■'He said that when lie started out in his
opjtisition to Lceompton lie was merely
lurking fight on a single measure, and not
the party ; but a blow at Lccomp
t'mlwas a blow at slavery, and he soon
fotjd the whole slave power arrayed against
•i jLiikcji pack of wolves. In making the
against this power, he remarked that
1 he was enabled to stand off and view the
j.niJ with whom he had been acting ; that i
ll&’ttvas ashamed he had ever been caught j
|lKuch company ; that they were a set of
j mi Vinci plod demagogues, bent upon per- ;
j pet kating slavery; ami by the exorcise of j
j th| unequal and unfair power, to control
the Government or break up the Union ; |
an that he intended to prevent their doing i
cit ,-:r. His denunciations of the fire-eat
ers tore at times very severe, and couch
ed II language fit noither- for- tho parlor
nor die newspaper. j
‘file insisted that lie would never he
dri’ en from the party, but would remain
ip i until he exposed tho Administration
andJJie disunionists; and when he went
out. iw would go of his own accord. He
was n the habit of remarking that it was
polh 7 for him to remain in the party, in
orthi to hold certain of tho rank and file,
so tj Aif he went over from the Democra
cy th any other party, he would be able to
take the crowd along with him ; and when
he ; ot them all over, he would cut down
the : i>idgos and sink the bouts.
“< m ono ooeaslon, I waited upon him to
ascertain if the report was true that he and
But anan had had an interview for tho
purj >so of settling their disputo. I said
to h’ “tt that, as the correspondent of a lead
ing Republican organ, I- had represented
him ikirly, audtliQ rQpqrt if true, tended
to e< “itpromise my position, and I thought,
thcr (litre, that I was entitled to a fair an
swer t.Q a fair question.
“! i,shed him to stvy to me frankly if
then * was any truth in the report. Put
ting Tm hand on bach shoulder, and look-
ing me square in the face, he said : ‘I au- |
thorizc you to say that there is not a word
of truth in the report.’ Adding, that there |
never would be any union between him and
Buchanan, unless the latter saw fit to come
to him and stand by his side on the plat- I
form of popular sovereignty.
“In the interview he repeated many
things that he had said before, to convince j
me and others that he was earnestly and
honestly on the side of the North, against
the slave power, and should be found fight
ing in the ranks of the great northern par
tv in 1860. In this interview he also used !
expression which a distinguished liepubll- ,
can member of the Thirty Fifth Congress 1
informed me he used to him in a conver
sation he held with him at the commence- !
mentof the Leeompton struggle, to ascer- j
tain his views concerning his (DotJOLAS’s) j
future intentions. After talking awhile
with Doglas, I inquired of him if he knew
where his present course (meaning his op
position to Leeompton) would lead him;
Douglas replied, with emphasis, ‘I do.
and I have checked all my baggage and
have taken a through ticket.’
“In using this expression to me, as he
did several times, he conveyed to my mind,
as I think he intended to do, that he was j
going from the Democratic party, over, |
bag and baggage, to the Republicans, a
great northern party, as he used to call it.
All who conversed with him at that time,
and during the Leeompton struggle, who
related their interviews with him to me,
received the same impressions from his
conversations that I did, and the number
was not only large, growing out of my po
sition here, but they embraced some of the
leading Senators and Representatives in
Congress, representatives of leading Re
publican journals of the country, as well as
i many of the most distinguished citizens of
the different States.
So throughly impressed were some of
the leading and most sagacious members
of Congress, that Mr. Douglas was ‘all right’
that they not only deemed it wise policy
for the Republicans of the State of Illinois
to take ‘hands off,’ and allow Mr. Douglas
to be returned to the Senate, but they urg
ed such action as a matter of justice, and
even went so far as to censure the Repub
licans of Illinois for not following such ad
vice, and in many instances, charged them
with being false to their principles and
sentiments, and sometimes, in the heat of
discussion, made use of opprobious epithets, j
“Mr. Douglas’ plan for destroying the
Missouri line, and thereby opening the j
way for the march of freedom beyond the
I limits forever prohibited by the existence
lof that line, and the opening up of free
! States in territory which it was conceded
belonged to the Slave States, and its march
westward, embracing the whole line of the
l’aeific, from the British possessions to
Mexico, struck me as the most magnifi
cent scheme ever conceived by the human
mind. This character of conversation, so
frequently employed by Mr. Dougks with
those with whom he talked, made the deep
est impression upon their minds, enlisted
them in his behalf, and changed, in almost
every instance, their opinion of the man.
While it is not surprising that the men
who wore in the daily bal.it of hearing
Mr. Douglas give expression to his senti
ments, should have given the advice they
did to the Illinois Republicans, it is sur
prising that they should now deny it.—
More remarkable is the fact that none of
the interviews I ever had with Judge
Douglas on the subject of nis political po
sition, were confidential. On the contra
ry, I always talked with him as a member
of the press, he being fully aware of my
position.
“But I am making this letter longer
than I intended, and may have occasion
to revert to the subject again soon.
“II.”
Now what do our Douglas friends think
of their man? Can such a man claim
their support ?
But recent events show that Mr. Doug
las still is tlic favored champion, in some
quarters, with the Republicans, and that
they are debating, seriously, whether it
would not he the best policy—as it is more
practicable as lie has a party South —to
drop Lincoln and take him up. 11 is late
Albany speech and the positions therein
assumed have convinced them that, for
their present purposes, Douglas is the
man—-for he is as bitterly opposed to the
formation of New-Slave States as Lincoln,
and his plan far more plausible. In Ab
olition New England Douglas shows his
hatred to the South by saying “he prefered
their clams” to our “niggers.” Can we
trust such a man—who, as the candidate of
a professed National party takes the small
est opportunity offered to ridicule our in
stitutions ?
But even the leaders of the Black Re
publicans applaud Mr. Douglas at this
time —showing conclusively his affiliation,
■in sentiment, with them. Wo give the
j following extracts taken from a late No. of
j New York Ilerald :
! Wiierk the Douglas Party - wtll
j Bring Up.—At a recant meeting at Cam
j bridge, Massachusetts, Hon. Anson Bur
! lingame declared that there were but two
| parties in the country which could last,
* and he hailed every Douglas flag as an as
sistance to the republicans. Ho ridiculed
the “old men’s party,” and said that the
Southern wing sympathized with the re
publicans, while the Northern wing be
longed to the ranks of the Breckinridge
army, lie regretted that Douglas had
not travelled all the way to republicanism.’
Douguastsm and Black Ukpurlt
canism.—The Albany professes
to have discovered, by reading the signs
of the times and looking at the cause and
effect of certain events, which way the
cat is about to jump. It says:
“The republicans not only engineered
and helped to pay tor the Douglas recep
tion on Friday night, but he was honored
| with a complimentary visit on Saturday
| from (ov. Morgan, Thurlow Weed and
! other leading republicans. We learn from
j a leaky “soft” that Mr. Weed promised to
! iqako Judge Dougins Secretary of State,
i provided ho would keep up the tight
against the sectionals. Judge I). promis
ed to take the offer into consideration and
report progress at an early day.”
Is Douglas sound ? Arc the people of
the South willing to leap in the dark to
support a man who would barter a
way their rights to reach tho Presidency.'’
We hope not.
Is John Bell Crazy ?
This is a question heading an editorial
article in the National American, of At
lanta. We answer, yes! John Bell is
crazy-, and his deluded followers are “as
mad as march Hares.” Any man is “cra
zy” who at this dark hoqr of pef il will sac
rifice his country’s good in the vain hope,
of elovatinghiiqself to the Presidency. A
vain hope wo pronounce it, and one that
stamps, if nothing else would, the poor pos
sessor with Ignacy —or xcorsc !
’ ’ *Vvvf > >•
Insurrectionary,
We learn that on last week in the up- ;
! per part of this county three negroes, be
longing respectively to Dr. Chaney, Mr.
Sledge and another gentleman, whose
f name we do not know, were overheard ;
i concerting a plan to rise and destroy the
whites in that settlement. One ot them j
j was afterwards whipped by his master and ,
| confessed the truth and on Tuesday the :
neighbors met and brought the negroes
before them, and they corroborated the
! statements of the other. Mr. Sledge’s boy
! whose name is Green, and is a notoriously
| bad character, divulged the whole plot,
1 which seems to have been about this:— i
| They had determined to instigate an in
’ surrectiou between now and Christmas,
I and had approached several negroes on the
| subject some of whom consented to join
r them and others refused. Their first point
of attack was to have been on a meeting
soon to be held at a Baptist Church on
Armuchce creek.
The people were on the eve of hanging
the boy Green, who seems to have been
the ring-loader, but they let him off upon
condition that he should be sent out of the
| State. There is no evidence that white
’ men arc implicated, though such is doubt
j less the case, as thereare several suepicious
individuals prowling about in the county.
The people cannot be too vigilant in watch
ing such fellows. They might find proof
to justify them in making an example of
one or more of them that would be a whole
some lesson to the rest. —Horne Conner.
