Demooratio campaign dooument, ami
complacency as. tho spider invited tho
fly, to coma Infd iheirperty and support
fheir candidate in Order to insure tlio
success of our principles. But we have
pvory reason Ho bcliovoi that tliey would
not carry- tlieAi?out J o*en iV they had
the powor to do so. Wo have, time and
again, alludod to somo’of these reasons}
wo propose now to glvo another.
Tlio Breckinridge party say thoy se*
ceded from tho Clmrloston Convention,
and duplicated'at Baltimore becauso of
the .Squattor Sovereignty horesy o
-their Northern allies. Thoy donounce
it as freesoU doctrine, intended to make
all the Territories free .States.. Gov.
Wiso stigmatised it as "the short out to
all the ends of Blaok Republicanism,”
and this is inxoribod upon the banners
of tho Breokinridgcrs, and lias become
tho rallying cry of the party. Their
protended horror of Squatter Sover
eignty cannot woll bo overestimated.
And although four years ago, and even
at a more recent date, thoy deceived
tlio .Southern people by pronouncing
this charge, then mado against Dougins
by the Opposition, as a base calumny,
thoy admit that there w*wn differ
ence of opinion between Northern and
Southern Democrats, and an agrepmont
to leavo it an open question in tho
party. And inoro than this, almost
tlio entire Southern delegation in ' the
Cincinnati Convention, including tlio
Hon. Jiio. C. BrobfcinVIdgo himself,
voted for Stephen A, Douglas as a candidate
/or the l*resideney. It is a poor, con
temptible quibble to say the Supreme
Court had not doaided-the-question.—-
As wall have voted for a Wilinot provi-
soist, becauso tlio Supreme Court had
not then doolnred that doctrine uncon
stitutional. If Squatter Sovereignty is
had note as tbo Wilmot proviso, it was
had then. If it will ns eff’octuully
drive the South from tho common Ter
ritories now, it would have dono so then.
And yet, wo repent it, thoy attempted
to foist upon tlio Southern peopio a
Presidential candidate, with n full
knowledge that ho held this doctrine.
And further still, they denied tho
fact when wo alleged it. And now, ns
if to till the cup to tho brim, they insist
upon our coming over to them and aid
them in carrying out our principles, and
keep them in power.
What ovidenco do .they furnish that
they will not deceive us again ? A pfaU
/«*•»!— a string of resolutions, which
have heretofore been no more eflerttml
in binding tho Democratic party, than
the cords of the Philistines were in
binding Sampson. Thoy have always
been upon them "ns flax that was burnt
with tire."- , ■
eral in other States—has re-published
jt .or oven given It a passing word of com*
inaidation. Although tho similar , reoop-
lion with which his Tunnel Hill speech
met at the hands of his new allies,should
have propatod us for it, still, aocustomed
as wo had boon, to regard every emana
tion from the "Demosthenes of the
Mountains” ns of vast importance to the
party and to the country, wo did not ex
pect ills pronundamento to live nowhere
but on the flies of tho CbimVr, and in a
reserved copy in tho possession of tho
author. In our fear and trembling at
-Jttio result,our overwrought imagination,
rushing ahead of sober second thought,
saw it leap into the conflict, like Miner
va, full grown and woll armod, from the
brow of Jupiter, to spread havoc in tho
ranks of tlio Opposition. But, instead
of tliis wo And that wc were culled in to
oflloiato at tho labors of mountains that
brought fortli only a little mouse—still
bom.
But- we lmd another reason for think
ing Ids letter would bo better rocoivod.
It was evidently intended to conciliate
tho Brcckiiiridgors for tiie hard things
ho said about them in his Tunnel 11111
pcccli. But it was a sad failure. Tho
Doctor said lie "took them all captive,”
but they refuse to bow to Gosier's cap.
Wo cannot to otherwise than indig
nant nt this bad treatment of our Ex•
Magnus AftoUo. It is not only base in"
gratitude towards him, hut a direct in
sult to our purty. It is an impeachment
of our judgment, an imputation against
understanding. We placed him in
tho lead; they left him in tho lurch.
We have hut one way to account for it.
He said they told "tlio tiuth onco and
it split the parly to pieces.” They tiro
now experiencing the disastrous const*
qitenoks of their rash experiment, and
have, doubtless, rosolved never to be
guilty of such folly again, nor to coun
tenance it in any member oi their par
ty.
The Dougins Meeting.
Tlio announcement that Col. Win,
Fort would speak on Thursday night,
attracted., tho largest crowd wo have
in tho’ City Hail since the cam
paign opened. His speech was decided
ly the spiciest that|has bcen'dolivered.—
That of tlio "gallant and eloquent young
Fitch” was flat and insipid compared
to it. Ho mado somo homo thrusts too
into the iron ribs of the Breckhiridgers
that must have been anything but com-
fbrtubie.
He compared Win. L. Yancey to
swallow that lays its eggs in every nost
it fluds open, and ho laid somo eggs in
the Democratic nest nt Charleston that
have already hatched. The speaker
seemed to have an abiding contempt
for demagogues and professional politi
cians. We never lind a good chanco nt
them before, but now they nro all hived
in tlio Breckinridge party, and all
huvo got to do is to "bum tv little sul<
phur under them and kill them all at one
smell.” When ono of them wanted
ottioe ho would strike a beo-lino for tlio
hive, and tho last ono, Col. W. B. Tor-
hunejias gone in. Not that he xeanted
', but only to follow tlio crowd and
soo what thoy wero after. The Brisok-
inridgers seem to have tho horrors at
Squattor Sovereignty, and, said he, there
is not ono that has not a patch on liis
brooches whore he lias been SqunttiUg
for the last four years.
Wo cannot remember many of the
best things he said, but ho has prom
ised to prepare himself for another
speech, and every body should go and
hoar him.
At tho conclusion of his speech Judge
Wriglit was called out, and made
short specob, but docklodly ono of the
most eloquent and ingonious defences of
Mr. Douglas wo have heard.
BBAUTirut. Uniform.—Wo have seen
one of the uniforms of the "Cherokee
Artillery,” and it is as liandsomo as any

A strong oompetitor is entering the

Dr. Miller, trun to his old habits nod
socintioii*, blurted it out the first timo
ho opened his mouth, and ho must ho
ox-communicated instanter. We inter
cede with our Brockinridgo friends to
pause, to consider all tlio circumstances.

esteemed friend. Dr; H. V. M. Miller,

Wo cannot add anything to tlio fol
lowing tribute paid Dr. Warner by tlio
Mobilo Tribune of April I2th 1800:
Dr. Warnkr.—We publish this morn
ing tlio advertisement of our distinguish
ed rosident chiropodist, Dr. Warner. It
is now going on two years since lie set
tled himself in Mobilo. Within this pe
riod ho lias mado n reputation, not only
as a good citixon but highly skilled in
ilia profession, nod ns a gentleman full
of integrity and socinl courtc»y.
Considering the tq»ccinl objection to
anything which resembles quackery Hint
prevails among tlio medical profession,

of Dr. Warner which havo been given
by our best physicians aro tlio highest
evidence of his worth. It isn’t ever)’

special purpose of hearing Wilson, tiie
Black Republican Senator from Massa
chusetts, deliver ' a speech, the subject
of which was the Union pnrtv. In the
course of his remarks, Mr. Wilson fre
quently spoke of it as being in the
"slave Interest,” and among others used
the following expression:
"Mr. Wilson argued tlmt tlio Whig
party had nlwavs been, to all intents
and purposes, in the interest of the
slave power, and that John Boll had
been foremost in overy measure which
tended to tbo agrnndizement of the
South and her institutions. His speech
was quite lengthy.”
John Boll had been 'foremost in overy
.measure which tended to the aggran
dizement of the South and her institu
tions.” And yet somo Southern news
papers and stump-tail orators charge
John Bell with entertaining views hos
tile to rlnvory. It is just that sort of
spirit which lias produced the prosent
crisis.— Wilmington Herald.

Important Discoverriks of Indian
Retreats.—On land owned by Dr. T. A.
Smith, about three miles from Alpino
in Chfttooga Co. and on the side of Look
out mountain, an artificial eavo*hns re
cently been discovered. Tho outnuice
is at the foot of tho mountain and was
cntlroly filled with looso rook and dirt.
This subterrnnoun passnsgo has boon ex
plored by Dr. P. 2 A - Smith and others
to tho distance of 175 feet. Tho passage
is for tho most part about 5 foot wido
and 6 to 8 foot high. It i* all of the
way partly, and in somo places nearly
filled with brokon fragments of Rook-
stone mortar postlos, small pieces of
iron, hatchet handles, hand stioks and
many naniolow Indian robots have boon
found.
There is unmistakable evidonoe that
it is an artificial passage. In some pla
ces It appears to havo been cut through
solid rook. It hi thought that this may
be the traditionary deposit of large
amounts of silver the Indians are believ :
ed by somo to havo left somewhere.

died stroke of partisan tactics, and un-
loss contradicted and exposed, is calcu
lated to do tho distinguished Tennessee
statosmau great injustice. For the pur
pose of hiscomploto vindication, let us
now look at tlio facts.
During tho discussion connected with
the Compromise measures of1850, John
Boll oflerod a series of propositions em
bodying his views ns to tlio best modo
of settling the distracting questions
tlion heforo tlio country. Ono of his
propositions was in theso words:
Resolved, That nil tlio Territory ceded
to the United States by by tbo treaty of
Guadalupe Hidalgo, lying wost of said
Territory of New Mexico, and east of
tlio oontomplatcd now Stato of Califor
nia, for tlio present continue one Torrl-
tovy.audfor which soma form of gov-
ornmont to tbo condition of the inhab
itants bo provided without any restriction
as to slavery.
It will be observed that by this reso
lution, Mr. Boll proposed to combine
Utah and Now Mexico, under one Terri
torial Govern mon t, nnd further, that
Mr. Boll expressly proposed to dispense
with tho Wilmot Proviso, and leavo
Territory "without any restriction as to
slavery.” All this tho editors*of the
"Kentucky Campaign” either did Hot
read, or having read it, did not care to
publish it, before they mado tiie charge’
that John Bell In voting against the
Utah bill, was "carrying out nls hostili
ty to everything which recognized the
equal rights of the Southom States in

tho common Territories of tho country. 1
Now what wore tlio reasons urged by
Mr. Bell in favor of that proposition,
and upon what grounds dia ho oppose
tho organizationof Utah Territory under
a soperato Territorial Government’?
Let him spoak for himself:
"My next resolution,” said Mr. Boil,
proposes to incorporate nil thocountry
ceded by Mexico to the Unltod States,,
lying wost of Now Mexico, nnd east of
tlio contemplated now State of Califor
nia in «wis Territory Tho proposition,
of course, contemplates a division of
tho Territory nt somo futuro timo, nnd
whon thoBOttlemont in it shall requiro
it. This is proposed upon tho idea that
it is not proper or oxpodient to gi.vo
any assurnneo to tho peculiar peopio,
tlio Mormons, by providing a sopnrato
Territorial Government for them or to
hold outnnv expectation that thoy will
bo Admitted into tho Union ns a sonar-
ato Stato. It may bo proper that thoy
should bo Admitted, but till wo know
moro of their polioy, designs and insti
tutions—I speak not exclusively of re
ligious institutions—Isliould think that
no Senator would bo disposed to do
moro for thorn than to extend to them
an adequate protection. Tho proposi
tion in till resolution is to provide for
tlio Mormons and all other settlements
and inhabitants, as in the case of Now
Mexico, a form of government suited
to tbeir condition. Thoy will want but
littio moro than tho protection of our
arms, at least for a considerable time,
against tho depredntions and massacre
of the Indians.”

Boll, and the reasons urged by him in
