The Election.

We have this week, cheering news to write. The
friends of the Compromised National harmony-have
achieved signal victory the Sectional candidate
and his party the election of Mr.. Parker, claim
no whg triumph. We would not tarnsh the proud vic
tory won by giving it party character. National dem
ocrats and wings alike voted Tor Mr.. Parker They
voted for him. not party man, but one who in
the Hall of Congress would rown sectonallsm, and
guard the integrity Of the Union His late competitor,
Mr. Julian his defeat to his sectional feelings and
his bitter denuncation OF the OF compromise
He had declared that certain law OF Congress COULD
NOT be executed in this district, and that he would
RESIST its execution at the peril OF his life He knew,
he said, his constituents would RESIST it. These
90 constituents" whom he had thus slandered, and
pledged to treason, have signally Tebuked him.
They have declared to Mr. Julian, in language plain
and explicit that they law-abidlng people, and
that they love the Union and its harmony more than
they do party.
The news of this victory will be beralded with Joy
throughout the Union 1t will be heard with pleasure
by the friends of National harmony Of all parties from
Louisiana TO Maine. The Fourth Congressional Dis
tct of Indiana that sent to the last Congress one ol
the anatcal nine that kept that body in disorganzed
state for six weeks las been redeemed.
In this victory, We much indebted to the jealous
and open efforts of leading and influential democrats in
and out of the district They threw the whole weight
OF their influence against Mr. Julian and to them, in
great degrees is the election of Mr. Parker TO be arbu-
ted. Whatever ills may betide them, prosecutions
endured for this act, we know that in refecting
they will have proud feeling, and approving
conscience than those ofce.seekng and trading demo-
who attempted throw their party into the en-
brace of abolitionism for the selfish purpose OF
gaining Office
We cannot delay our paper 10 give the official
of this county and district In Wayne Parkers
majority 300; about the same in Fayette, and in
Union, Julian has a small malority-less than 80
Nothing definite heard from Henry-whch will give
Parker 100 majority.
Mr.. Parkers majority in the district will be about
5O0
In this county the whig ticket is elected with the
cepton of Clerk and Commissioner.

The followingis Judge Reads idea Of Democracy,
pressed many years ago:
Democracy presents itself for approval upon the

honesty and intelligence Of mankind. II has argument

Of its own prncpes-and no appeal to the affections
cept its spotess morality and elevated purity Of pur
pose 1t is the perfection Of reason, and may be aptly
described TO be-human action excited by goodness of
motive, and guided and directed by truth of principle.
Like the Christian religion leaving the gorgeous trap
pings Of splendid ceremony, stupid pomp to conceal
error dignity folly it shines forth in the simple light
Of truth win and bless the human family. Do
others yon would have them do you,' carried
rule Of action into all social and political organizations
forming the base Of government well the spirit Of
laws, constitutes Democracy. Observed at all times,
and carried into complete effect il would earth

all II equalizes not by degradation but by elevation
IL confers sovereignty upon a-makes the people
ereigns-conerring equal rights upon each and

political rights and equal rights TO acquire and possess

other paper for county: of it will be and

ment of this paper "The True Wing" has been caused
by personal feeling against the editor of the demo-
cratic paper than by love of doing especial

port MIR. Lawyer is gentleman of high integrity and
great worth, and he is doing good service for the

candidates for Governor in Mississippi Generals Foote
and Qutman, the 18th inst during their discussion
Sledgevle in Panola county. 1t appears from the Ea

from all personalities in their discussion Gen. Foote
however, deemed it no inraction of this agreement
allude Gen. Qutmans connection with the late Gu
ban expeditions and had done several appointments
previous the one at Sledgeville, without provoking
any Interruption At Sledgeville however, when Gen
Foote spoke of the Cuban affair." Gen. Qutman stopped
him and said that it ungenLemGRly and dishonest
thus to violate their agreement. Thereupon Gen. Foote
called him ga liar" Blows were instantly inter

Quitman has sgnifed his determination not to speak
