But when proper weight is given to the considerations upon which this corre. j endenco rests, the reader can cot withhold his untire approval of thu course ime which Mr. Breckinridge seems to have becu lit erally driven by the extraordinary attitude of the canvass. AuarsT 18, lsfio. lion. John C. Bkkcaiwuiuue, Lexington, Ky: Dr.an Sik:—Your friends of this Congression al District, have deputed us to request you to ad drea* the people, a barbecue to bo given by them t suit your convenience,) for the purpose of publicly v indicating yourseli from the violent personal assault? made upon you siucc your m m •nation for the Presidency at Baltimore. They have been induced tu make this request more particularly, because you have been recent ly assailed from the “stump” by Jodge Douglas, at Concord, and Mr. Crittenden at Louisville; the former charging you with having uttered extreme opinions in favor of squat ter sovereignty, andthe latter asserting that a* the Presidential candidate of the National Democracy, you are tho head of a disunion party : we wish to afford you the op portunity publicly to repel these assaults, believ mg that no ju*t umn Would be disposed to require that you should, by your silence, permit charges 9n unjust to be promulgated under the authority of these distinguished meu. The propriety of thus publicly stamping as false, these ami other accusations, is the more obvious when we reflect, that for the last three years, you have not had the right to speak in the Senate, although ly law its presiding officer; and because tho obvious mo tive of these personal assaults is to weaken tho confidence of the people m the National and Lien - stitutional Democracy. Will you permit u* to urge you to name an • arly day when it may suit your convenience to meet and address us. Very truly and resjiectfullj your friends, WILLIAM JOHNSON, J l NIL'S R.

Li. w.noroJt, Kv., August 21, lb6o. iii.Nruggg:—l have received your letter of the 18th mat., in which, on behalf of my friends ot this Congressional District, you invite tue to address the people, lor the purpose of vindicating myself from the violeut personal asaanits made ujmn me since my nomination for the Presidency at Baltimore. I have not prnposed'at any time to take part in the general political* discussions of the day.— To this letter, however. I recognise tho signa tures of many of uiy oldest and most cherished friends, whose wishes are with uie almost com mand* : and after some reflection, I have resolved lo accept your invitation; not that I consider any defence necessary before my neighbor* and constituents, but because it may be well to group together and refute in a nublic and authentic manner, accusations remarkable for rher number, their injustice, and the persistency with which they have been urged against me. 1 feel that it would be unjust to my principles, my friends and myself to remain longer in ailcnoe beneath this torrent of defamation ; and I hope to*re|Kjl every charge which has been mode, to the satisfaction | of all candid and honorable men. It will lm agreeable to me to meet my fellow citizen* on any day and at any place tbut you tnaj* select. Very truly your friend, JOHN C. BRECKINRIDGE. Ills friends have designated the i>th of Septem ber as the time for the address, and WHITE SULPHUR, SCOTT COUNTY’,is the place of th meeting. Douglas rh had at Seward. The C'oiumLns Enquirer did not. advise, but favored the union of tbo Douglas and Hell men in Georgia upon one electoral ticket. It said there was an “urgency” for the coalition Had it Loen done, tbo vote of Georgia would have been di vided between Douglas and Beilin the Electoral College, supposiug they hud a vote. To this ex tent, the Enquirer and other opposition presses would have contributed to the election of Deug las. In a back issue of tbc Enquirer is the fol lowing: “but wo can see no • ltlorence between them (Seward aud Douglas) and are no more opposed to the election of the one than the other.” < “tr.meat is useless.

Mr. KrrrklnrMgc win Vindicate EMftftr In repon* to the urgent calls of bis friend*, Mr. Breckinridge will vindicate himself against the false charges brought ugainst him, in a pub lie i*eech on the oth of September, at White Sulphur, Kentucky. He say* it would be “unjust to his principles, his friend*, and himself to re main longer in silence beneath the torrent of rfe- J amotion} and he hopes to nxi'Ri. kvkbv oh arc k which has been made, to the satisfaction of all candid and honest men.” m * wsi - Enquirer would have it* reader* bo iieve that the Times has changed its position in regard to the election of a Republican President, to-wit: that it would be a just cause for dissolu tion. Yet on the very day the charge is made, the Times commends the letter of the Hon. B. If. Hill, advocating dissolution a* “patriotic.” Will not the Enquirer republish the Dudley letter?— If it was a political “chart” a few months ago, surely it is now. It may hurt John Bell, but it come* from the oracle of th© party. Till*; UNIUN OF THR STATKX, AMI THR SUYRHEIUNTY OF THR STATEN. Postpnnul Indefinitely.

We have not backed out from a single position assumed by the Time*. Wehave not deserted Cobb, Toombs, B.

We repeat that when Lin coln is declared elected wo shall appeal to the “people to redress thoir grievance.” Wc repeat all that we have ever said that moans resistance to Black Republican rule from first to last. The omission of ono simple word in our last editorial doubtless led to this mistake of tho En quirer: that wo have taken a position of resist ance one day and retracted the negt.

Non intervention is against interfer ence to estahrish or abolish, by either Congress or its creature, the Territorial Legislature.

WKDNMPAY At’MWTJ*. IMIO tnd lie played onn llarp of a Thousand strings. As John Bell stands on n platform that admits Jew and Gentile, saint and sinner, republican ami slaveholder, and his political record is spot tod for the North ami South, his rwpporter* play on the “harp of a thousand strings,” to catch votes. Tho tunes arc adapted to tho tnsto of the hearers and vary according to the locali ty. For instance, “old Zip Coon” is all the go nt one place, and there is nothing like its dulcet strain*'; while at another, tho more graxc and sorious air of “Marseilles Hymn,” charms tho < hi gentleman into a most delectable feeling. To illustrate more fully. The string touched In Vir ginia, for instance, makes uo music in Georgia, tho reverse. Just listen! Tho Chairman ol’the National Bell Executive Committee, Mr. Rotcler of Virginia, publishes an extensivo document, in which ho represents Mr. Dreckinridgo as an ex treme man us “repreecuting the doctrine of ;rt tiomil intervention in behalf of slavery, n and ns proposing to administer the Government “WfA rejcrencc to an exclusive Southern j>ol icy.” This is based upon the fact, that the Brockinridgo plat form contends for tho protection of slavery in the territories. Too much socTiohaiistn iu this for the Nationals < f Virginia. Bell i* more of an Union man too conservative to hold these ex treme views. This is the chord of tho harp play ed iu Virginia Iu Georgia, lion. B. 11. Hill plays to a differ ent tone. Uo says Bell is for “intervention iu behalf of Mavory;” then quoting from the records he adds: “On this proviso Mr. 801 l voted yc, thus as serting under oath, the duty of protection when necessary, in the very lanyuarjc of the platform.” But Mr. Hill stops not here: “My next proposition is, that Mr. 801 lis rounder tbun this platform. Now to the proof.” And to bis own satisfaction he proceeds to give tho proof. And he adds, “there is nothing in all Mr. Boll’s record inconsistent wjth this;” and thereupon he appeals to the Breckinridge men to give him their support. So much for this Boli liarp with a thousand stringßy next November it will be found hanging on th* willows with this iu.-cripLon un der i: PLAYED OUT!” The kenturhy Rim lon, Not so liml Wo have this to say t our friends in reference to tho Kentucky election. That wo do not con sider the late election of Gen. Goiubs,by the ittiiou of Douglas ami Bell men, a test of the strength of Mr. Breckinridge in the coming contest. It would lie unfair so to consider it. Eor this rea son : Uen. Combs is regarded a* one of the most popular men in the Common wealth of Kentucky his personal popularity excels that, perhnps, of any other man, save Mr. Brockinridgo, in tbo State. Ho was elected over hie competitor by a vote less than that received by the opposition candidate for Governor last year. That is to say, bis vote was manlier. Bell, the opposition can didate for Governor in IMhU received ‘*7,4-4# votes. MeGoffin, the Democratic candidate received 70,627. Total vote I t 1,072. This year tho de mocrats not turning out anil no very great inter- est felt, about 116,000 votes were |>oUd, leaving off tho decimal*, 29,000 less than that polled in 1860. The combined vote of Douglas and 801 lri tbe same as that given the Democratic candidate last year. From this number subtract the vote of Douglas in the November Convention, and we leave Bell with a number of votes fur below the present estimate, uml tho remaining democratic vote larger than that of cither Bell or Douglas. A plurality electing the candidate, John ('. Breckinridge himself before the people with all his popularity, tho young men rallying to him, his nervine* in war and in peace remembered, we have grent faith in hi* sweeping the State. Nnv Pott Aok Stamp.— A ninety cent postage stamp,expressly intended for the accommodation of merchants, has been prepared by tho govern ment. The centre of the stamp has nrepresenta tion of Washington, from a portrait taken at the time when he resigned the command of the army, j and is said to differ materially from all other I likenesses of him. The color of the ground is blue. Tht; stamps now in n. o arc of the follow ing denominations: One, three, live, ten, f wonty, j twenty-four, thirty, and ninety cent*. The amount | generally paid on foreign letters, not c vered by j the abovo, nre fifteen, twenty-seven and fifty four j cents, for which a eotnbination of the stamps now I supplied will suffice. i, vJ.YVe see that A. 11. jL'oLqrvrr, K*q., Alter nate F,lector for the State at large, is warmly en listed for Breckinridge and Lane, aud is hard at ; work for them on the ttump.

Tt affects to-be Ue vet hat it is impossible t<> express a determina tion not to submit willingly to Block Republican domination without dragging the issue Into the canvass. This is all ft*r political capital. Tho Enquirer only looks within tho horizon of party prejudice. Its judgment is biased, while it.'mo tives may bagood. Now, docs it look like haul ing down one’s colors, simply to say the ittue of the election of a Republican President may never bo made ‘ The Enquirer’* optics are just keen enough to see this view of the question. It says: “If you go on to express doubts whether “Ihe issue is ever made ot the election of a Republi can u* u cause lor dissolution” we eliull again think that you are hauling down the revolution ary flag and running up the old “stars and stripes.” Is it evidence of cowardly submi*ion in a mini to say if ho is “crer'* attacked he will re sist!’ Does the expression of a doubt that ho will never fight, because his antagonist may not give him cause, allow hia unwillingness to do so . This is the reasoning of the Enquirer. If a Republican is elected, tho i.s*uo is made; if he is not elected, the issue is not made. This the long and short of it, and tho Enquirer is giving courage to the enemy by running, like the lame Captain, before a gun is fired.

Referring to tho causes of the break-up in the Baltimore Convention, Mr. Filch hit oft’ the new delogutbs, who wore lluekerized into that body to fill the place* of the regular members: A score of Southern >. \ gentlemen, with re freshing iunooeuce of ability, and a very select bunt ol influence, who have Ibr year* professed a distinguished dissatisfaction at tho proceedings of the Democratic party, presenting a pleasing variety of | Utieal vagaries, united by great ummlmitv of opposition to Doiuocracy.

It was vulgarly supposed that Mr. DougW nomination was the result of ten years of solicitation and intrigue; an milimited sole of political indulgences and post obits; an attentive forgetfulness of former principles, aud an enthusiastic insincerity in fu ture pledges, ussbted by a liberal exhibition of Belmont and Brandy. But this of course must bean error, which, it is to be regretted, how ever, lias become so popular and irradicable in the American mind. The only wonder I*. how in these days of Presidential aspirants, when so many bold bad men are devoting all their un hallowed energies to the attainment of that high honor, it should have boon thrust upon so unob trusive, unostentatious a gentleman as Mr. Doug las ! Verily, the “Gods take care of Cato.” The peculiar inode of selecting their candi date iortbe Vice Presidency is commented on in tho following strain : This selection of Johnson is nn apt Illustration of tho much boasted “regularity” of the Dougin ticket, und shows how far auy loyal democrat is bound by hi* democratic fealty to support such leader*. Ton or fifteen gentlemen, “urged Ly Ituuger and request of friends,” met one night in the dining room of the National Hotel at Wash ington, when having disposed of a cold collation, they proceeded to dispose of the Vice Presiden cy. A* thero were no aspirants for the honor of this post-praudial nomination, their labor would have been light, but for the difficulty of finding imy one to oven accept it when proffered. Final ly, after a voracious and anxious session, during which every bone was picked, aud every name canvassed, they chose as a dernier retort, Mr. 11. V. Johnson. And now this Dining Room Can didate this table d'hote nominee—this “lame uud impotent conclusion” to a cold supper and a secret caucus, is proclaimed the only regular Democratic standard beurcr, to opposo whom is to dissolve tho Union ! Your ox-Governor comes in for a good hit on the score of his forty-tbousand-votes-catchiug resolution.

Tho eloquent tribute to Yancey, which seemed to come fmm the heart of the fiery young speaker, was received with loud applause. It was quitecbceriogand inspiring to Lear the gallant Southern Prcux Chevalier, so handsome ly greeted in an extreme Northern community. Hero is what Mr. Fitch suid of Mr. Yancey : If the Douglasites have little argument, it must be granted they have a desperate fecundity of epithets, tine of tho serious maledictions, conclusive at oimeonre of the original parity of the Douglas ticket, und the actual sin of the Breckinridge nomination,is the charge that we Hre Yaneeyitcs.

The best reason udorned with the highest eloquence; m courage to meet all Comor in the political field, and skill to confouud them ; eiiiintMK'c by universal concession; foresight, dar ing, devotion, irreproachable in private lifv, re limit, adventurous everywhere, means simply W. L. Yancey. These are trail- admired by all men. With tho personal preierencea of Mr. Yancey and his iutenne Southern affections we have nothing to do—and he who will has forgotten his own busi ness. With Yancey’s sincerity, I>ougl might be trusted—with Yancey's attainments, Donglas would be an ornament to the Seuate -with Y an I cry’s sagacity, Douglas would not now occupy a position which, while it destroys hi* past, for ever obliterates his hopes for tbe future. On tho whole we have no particular objection to the title of “Yunceyites.” In hi* vindication of Breckinridge, Mr. Fitch thus refer* to the charge of Kiiow-Nothiugism against the gallant Kentuckian : The lust charge brought ugainet Mr. Breckin ridge is, that he nfliliated with the Know-Noth ings. Tbe char e originated in a letter from a Mr. John Savage to Hon. Henry A. Wise. A* it is not to be expected of course that any oue of you ever heard of Mr. Savage before—it may boas well to remark that his name does him great injustice. He is a very harmless, inoflen sive little gentleman, whom the public ha* al ways treated with generous neglect, lie is tho author of one tragedy that wa* rood and damned, mid one hook that was damned without being read. Mr. Ravage, it seems, is now worrying his tender intellect with politics. It ia the old story of Penelope’* suiLrs tugging at the bow of Fly.-sefl. The entire basis for the charge against Mr. Breckinridge in contained in u statement made by hint in a public speech, that he “would rather vote for one of hi* own countrymen than a foreigner, all other thing* being equal.” Thi* in certainly a very grave offense, considering that iu the very next sentence he denouuce* the Know Nothing organization upon high, moral, ami Constitutional ground*. I am afraid u foreigner, one of Mr. Ravage s own class, an Irishman, for iuMtance, wouldn't vote fr oue of hi* own countrymen in preference to anybody else, “all other things being equal,” or unequal. It must be a mistake about their ever donn u< b things. If that be knuw-Noth ingiam, then make the most of it. There is much more iti that speech which is worthy to be reproduced and read by ail South erner*, ami by all who have u taste for wit, keen .-atire, and tine rhetoric. YYo have only room for one more extract, in which Mr. Douglas’s New England tour i* admirably served up : Where is Mr. Douglas now ? Refreshing his recollection of American history at the bane of Bunker Hill, under the escort of that little co terie of gentlemen who compose the Douglas De mocracy in Massachusetts —endeavoring to gath er somu of the dust of Webster upon hi* shoes, and trying like a dull tourist to grow eloquent from association —relieving college exercises from the wearisome elegance of classic recitation* by the inelegant weannee* of hi* distinguished plati tude* of self-goverument—divulging to astuu i.-hed Havana In tbe shade* of Harvard, the ori gin of SqtMittcr Sovereignty, and “watering nil tte school*” with bis endless repetition* on thr “great principle that underlies” and outlies all other principles. It i* not custom, I believe, for I'retddentiai nominees to advocate, upon the stamp, their own superior merit* for that high office. It is iu view of the talent und wit of this speech that has induced n* thu* to make such full and extended quotation* from it. A display of equal power by an orator of the opposite party would hardly have elicited less commendation for the style, art and rhetoric. Mr. Fitch promises to be one of thu bright lights in the world politioal and oratorical. Dead Man's Elrctoual Ticket. At the lat convention of the Ureckinridger* at Hvraeuso. N. Y., to nominate an electoral ticket, they put up the name of Albert 11. Tracy, who ha* been dead for over two year*. Iu commenting upon thi* fact, the N. Y. Evening Fuel says : “As it wa* evident that tbe disunion party was going to its grave a* fast aspossible, the conven tion doubtless saw the propriety es choosing elec tors'from that lopalUy;’ ” This u a mistake. Mr. Tracey liveth, and has announced the fact at tbe meeting of the Harato ga Breckinridge meeting. Hehveth to whip out tlm opposition. | From the N.Y. Day Book ] \ < uhtttrt a* I* a ( ablnci. It is nuid that the Douglac slate wa* made out at Baltimore. Itia true that the cyphering sig nifies nothing now since Dougla* has gone uud*r, but tbe names are suggestive and significant. - They embrace all tbe most virtuous, pure-mind ed and patriotic of tbe leading gentlemen adher ing to the fortunes of Mr. Douglas : l'eter Cngger, Secretary of tftafe.

A correspondent of the Journal of Commerce writing from Saratoga, says : There were a number of gentleman present from tbo Southern States, visiting at the Spring* who generally coincided with the views of the committee, as did also many gentlemen from other State* in the Union. Several of the Breckinridge and Lane elector* were also present and among them was Albert H. Tracy, the *o called “dead man” from Buffalo.
