DouglasTMeeting—Judge Wright’s
Speech.
On last Tuesday night a few persons,
composed principally of BeU and Brack-
inridge voters, met in the city Hall
the Douglasites to form a *‘club, the
balance to hear the speaking.
Judge Wright stated the object of
the meeting; Judge Wright called Mr-
Geo. P. Burnett to the chair; , Judge
Wright nominated Dr. J. W. Wofford
Secretary; Judge Wright appointed a
committee to draft and report a Consti
tution; Judge Wright announced .the
business of the meeting finished, and
being called on Judge Wright made a
speech. In one respect at least the
meeting was all right, and Wright was
all themeeting.
fie began his remarks by saying a few
words in favor of truth and declaring
himself its warm friend, and was of
opinion that though crushed to earth it
would rise again. He soon came to the
second branch of his discourse—Wil
liam L. Yancey. He said Mr. Yancey
seemed to object to his Allusion to him
in Atlanta, but “public men could not
write and speak without being written
arid spoken about, and when a Cataline
attempted to pull down the pillars of
the noblest governmental fabric ever
built by human wisdom, the people
should know it, if he could make them
know it by telling them of it.” He said
Mr. Yancey was the head and front of
the "soceder’s squad” and that his ob
ject was a dissolution of the Union.—
Ho traced out the history of the seces
sion movement and saw Yancey’s foot
steps throughout i£s wholo length. He
said namet could not scare him, but that
word Yancey seemed to bo a monstrous
bugbear to him. He declared himself a
,Squatter Sovereign, and did it with an om.
phasis that proved he meant what ho
said. To this conclusion all Doug
las men must come although they
now indignantly “repel the insinuation”
as Qov. Johnson did in his lettor to the
Albany Patriot.
Judge Wright asserted that all par
ties were pledged to this doctrine by
the act of the Legislature,passed almost
unanimously .endorsing the Kansas bill
So far as the Opposition party is con
cerned it is not so. They approved the
principle of non-intervention as they
understood it then from Southern Dem
ocratio leaders and papers to mean
wit, thatihe people of a Territory should
bo left perfectly free to establish oc
prohibit slavery when they came to form
their State Constitution, and at no other time,
They never did endorse Mr. Douglas’
and Judge Wright’s doctrine of Squatter
Sovereignty,
A characteristic feature of Judge
Wright’s speech was that it was devoted
entirely to the dissensions in the Dem-
ocratio party and an attempt to prove
that his wing of it was the national par
ty. He did not use one argument in
favor of the constitutionality of his doc
trine of Squatter Sovereignty, but made
a few ad captandum remarks about self
government; and yet it was doubtless a
fair sample of the speeches that will be
made on that side of the question dur
ing the present campaign.
Mr. Bell’s Platform.
Under the above caption the Burling
ton (Vt.,) Free Press, a Black Republi
can paper, says the collection of extraots
from Mr. .Bell’s letters and speeches
with a recqrd of somfe of his votes on
publio questions, recently published by
the Central Union Committee of Ten
nessee, is a tolerably correct represen
tation of his views, as is fairly inferred
from the fact that he refers Mr. Watts
to this compilation.
The Press says Mr. Watts carefully
examined the same and published a
summary of the positions therein taken,,
which is the same we gave oiir readers
soon after it appeared. And the Prut
taunts the supporters of Mr. Bell with
his pro-slavery proclivities, while South
ern papers denounce him as - unsound
on this question. Who will settle the
question r ^ 4
A Word of Caution. •
’ Last February when the exoitement
caused by the Harpers Ferry invasion
was still Ugh, we took occasion to warn
the people against the pernicious prao-
tioe of unguarded and indiscreet oon-
, venation before negroes upon the sub
ject of tho slavery agitation. We are
induced to call the attention of our
readers once more to this sutyeot, be
cause many instances bare came under
' our own observation and that of others,
who have spoken to us about it, where
cussed before negroes in all its bearings,
from its origin in the abolition- move
ment at the North to its final consum
mation in a general servile insurrection
in the Southern States. It would seem
to us that the evil which must natural
ly and surely .ensue from such a course
would strike the most obtuse mind with
great force. We have no doubt mtfch of
the discontent, insubordination and im
pudence which has become so com
mon among negroes, is the result of the
very praotice.lJjThey imbibe the most
erroneous and absurd notions in rela
tion to the designs of the.Black Repub
lican party and the prospeots of their
speedy emancipation by a Northern
army as soon as that party shall come
into power. They naturally concluded
that all this insurrection excitement of
which they hear white persons talk so
much is but the beginning of the aboli
tion movement, and the idea becomes
fixed in their minds, and will require
years perhaps to ‘be extirpated. The
natural consequence is they become
restless under restraint, discontented
and in many instances revenge them
selves for supposed wrongs. t
The Southern people ought to exer
cise more prudence and we urge such
as may read this to put a bridle or their
tongues in the presence of negroes.—
The eagerness with which they listen
to every word that is said, is evidence'
that they are on the alert for informa
tion and are deeply interested.

letter says:
“The young man, it seems, had taken
a fancy to, and lial been corresponding
occasionally with, a young lady in or
near Blairstown. The principal of tho
school, Alr.-JoimsOn, jiaviiig found this
out, forbode-the ooriespomteitce, and
even wrote himself to tho- young lady
forbidding her to send th6 young man
anymore letters. She, however, con
tinued to write, andit happened, a day

the young umu chanced to drop one of
her letters, which letter wm* found and
earned to Johnson. Instead of return

judgment ought to have, suggested, he
had it publicly rend behv’Koio,.. school

Negro Conspiracy in Halifax County,
Vn. Four Killed and one Danger
ously Wounded.
One of the most daring eonspiracies
by negroes to murder a wliite.man that
we ever heard of, came to light in Hali
fax county; about. fifteen miles from
Danville, on Wednesday or Thursday,
■for the particulars of which wo are in
debted to Conductor Cheatham, of the
Richmond and Danville Railroad.
Mr. Samuel Hairston, a wealthy far
mer in Halifax, has an overseer on one
of his plantations who is a strict dis
ciplinarian, and a man of great firm
ness. On the day in question, while
the overseer (whose name we could not
learn) was sitting in his office, six stout
negro fellows employed on the farm
called upon him, and after informing
him that a party of negroes in the
woods near by was preparing for an in
surrection, invited him to go with them
and witness the plan of operations.—
Not suspecting that they had any de
sign upon him, but being anxious to
Origin of tlie Massacre of Christians
lit DlllllUSCU*.
Tlie immediate cause of tlio massa
cre at Damascus is thus stated by
a corresjiomlent of (lie lioston Trav
eler, under date of .Hoyrout-July 14,
1860.
On Monday, tlie 10th inst., children
who had been making crosses in the
mud, and otherwise insulting the
Christians of Damascus, were arrested
by tlie Governor,, and-after a short im
prisonment were sent to sweep tho
streets ofthe Christians. This stop was
the alleged cause of the outbreak, and
every Frank considered it but a.part of
the general plan to produce. tlie re
sult which 1 tun about to communicate.
A mob of about five hundred persons
vushed to the relief of those children,
and attacked tho Christian quarter ut
two o’clock P. >1. At this hour tho
Christian merchants were away, from
their houses in tho business part ofthe
city, and were unable to reach their
fumilics after the breaking fafctii of the
insurrection. The signal of death nnd
destruction having thus been given,
tho work of slaughter commenced, and
at the date of the latest advices,
yesterday, ut three P. M., the work
of murder and pillage was still going
on. ,

another room, armed himself with a
five-shooter, and then started off with
the assassins, they not knowing that he
was fully prepared for any emergency.
_ The negroes led the way until get
ting into tne forest some distance,when
they suddenly stopped near a newly
dug pit, when the spokesman confront
ed him, and, pointed to the hole,said to
him: “There is your grave. You have
but fifteen minutes to make your peace
with God.” Quick as thought tho
overseer drew liis Colt’s revolver, killing
four of the ruffians dead at bis feet,and
shot the fifth one in the abdomen, see
ing which', the sixth took to his heels
through the woods, and the overseer
having 'no other weapon, ho escaped.
The impression prevails that tlie six
negroes had determined to murder tlie
overseer, because of some deserved
punishment one or more of thorn had
received, and laid the above plan to get
him off in the woods to effect their
ends. His presence of mind in taking
his pistol, and his coolness in the hour
of danger, when no white person was
nigh to aid him, doubtless savod him
from a horrid death.—Richmond Dis

Democrats Going for Bell.—The
Rockingham (Va.) “Register” contains
a communication from Charles Grattan,
Esq., who was a Democratic Represen
tative in the last Legislature, from
which we take the following significant
extract: .
Now,-sirs, our object is to defeat the
Republicans, and for one I am willing
to see thiit done by BeU. Of course I
should prefer a Democrat, but even
supposing Ihe worst phase tlie case can
u&sutrie, we will have a Southern man
infinitely preferable to Lincoln, and in
all probability a' Democrat. How is it
to be authoritatively understood who
thiit strong man is, without a general
consultation-? It surely can do no
harm; it is open to every element of
good. I nm very decidedly opposed to
that double ticket arrangement which
has beon spoken of. 1 sincerely .believe
it will lose us the State. Already I see
many of tile grny-hoaded fathers of
tho Democracy going off. because they
cannot remain in a house divided
against itself,and against which-the
judgment of liouvcn has been pro
nounced.
