The Causes.


We notice that severalof our democrat.
&c contemporaries, and particularly The
Chicago Democrat, are still engaged in
assigning causes for our recent defeat
Some alledge that the democracy oftbe
South have proved treacherous to the
party and the North; while others assign
as reason for General Cass' defeat. his
writing the Nicholson letter.
This discussion in regard to the causes
OF the defeat Of our party, and the reasons
assigned, may all he we'll enough; but it
does not appear so to US. And besides
this censuring our democratic brethren Of
the South and charging them with
breach of party faith, is highly unjust
AS we have stated heretofore, all the
reliable democratic States Of the South,
as the result shows, have proved true 20
The democracy; but not SO with those of
the North. With either New York or
Pennsylvania, which have always been
regarded, and in particular the latter, as
stongly democratic. General Cass would
have been elected. Some ofthe southern
States that cast their votes for Polk in
IA, it is true have gone for Taylor; but
II should be remembered that the majority
for Polk in each of these States was small,
and that heretofore they have been cIas.
sed with the list of uncertain States.
Now if we are not mistaken in the
most plain matters of fact, some of our
contemporaries should take portion of the
blame upon their own shoulders. Moth
ing contributed so much towards bringing
defeat upon us in the recent contest, as the
agitation Of a dangerous sectional QUESTION
-one that endangers the existance of the
Union-by ambitious aspirants for Office
at the North, who kept up such agitation
in order that their own selfish purposes
might be promoted. The agitation Of
this question Of slavery, and eagerness of
individuals to profit by it, took from the
democracy the States Of New York and
and Pennsylvania and exeried bane(ul
influence upon the South TO a certain
extent.
That General Cass' Nicholson letter
contained anything calculated to bring
defeat upon the party, we are not pre-
pared to admit. If an adherence to the
compromises and provisions Of our Ma.
tional constitution, brought defeat upon
US, then, perhaps that letter had some.
thing 10 do with it. The democratic party
has ever stood upon the broad basis
the constitution Upon this platform ali
who venerate democratic institutions can
stand. The democratic party is not
sectional party but national in all its in
terests and measures. Let the old land
marks of the party be observed, and these
sectional chickering's cease, and another
four years will witness the democracy
again in the ascendency.

Instruction 10 onr Senatnrs.

That there will an attemp, made at the
approaching session of our Legislature,
to pass resolutions, instructing the United
States Senators from this State to vote
Tor the Wilmot Proviso, may be inferred
from the indications manifested in certain
sections of the State. Saying nothing in
regard to the principles Of the Wilmot
Proviso, we do not see the propriety of
voting instructions upon it.
The principles of the Wilmot proviso,
were not taken into consideration by the
electors in the selection Of members ofour
Legislature. For the Legislature TO in
struct, in view of these facts, would be the
assumption of powers which were never
delegated to it by the people. The peo-
pie of Illinois have extended to their
Senators and Representatives no right to
instructupon the question Of slavery; and
any instructions voted under such cir
should not be regarded by
our Senators in Consess, as they would
not emanate from the people.
