TThe democracy have an Election on
Saturday, in the different Townships, to
nominate candidates for the Legislature
They will vote for their preference, as at a
regular election--the two formost being the
candidates. The result will be made known
on Monday, when it is expected the candi-
dates will accept, and address the people,
We believe it is generally conceded that
Mai. c. F. Jackson will be one of the can
didates.

Gen. Scott is identified with q people at
the North whose every instinct and action
is repugnant 10 the feelings and interests OF
the SoUth. His ovcrweening ambition for
the station for which he is now, at last, a
candidate. has made him servile. There is
no creed in politics, which his policy has
dictated, that he has not oiessed--ever
shifting and re-shifting his sails for the pop
ular breeze"
Now, reader, just read the Platform of
the Wing National Convention, and Gen.
SCOTS advocacy, at first, and now, of the
compromise measures, into-day's paper, and
muse, sadly, it may be, at how politics will
warp the feelings and bias the Judgment
Talk about the gallant Scott being "servile, u
and having no ''creed in politibs." A loco
foco, OF the Missouri stripe, 10 talk thus
Bah.
Better alter your tactics, early neighbor.

and if you don't back soon, you'll gel

What's to be Done Now2

Speaking Of the nomination Of Gen. Scott
for the Presidency, the last Banner says:--
at becomes Us, without laying aside our regard
for him as soldier to tell him he is no salesman"
We insist that the Editor of the Banner
shall not make Gen. Scott feel so badly, by
acting in so becoming manner. Then,
aiere is the members of the wing National
Convention, too, men of talent, discrimina-
ton, judgment, patriotism and long service
Statesmen, ifyou please-how could they
nominate man who it becomes HIM of the
Banner 10 dcnounce as no Statesman?
Shall we have another Convention?

vor of this Federal bantling; nor, in fact, did

coalition with the wings. In view of these
facts, who will say that this fugitive slave
law was not of wing, or federal, origin?

been arraigncd here, and charged with hos
tility TO these measures, or at least that he
does not commit himself in favor of them
Justice TO that distinguished Wing requires
of me that should say he could not haze
done more. He was as active a man as
could be found in getting these compromise
measures passed. | was here, and heard
from every quarter that General Scott was
as active and energetic in his efforts as any
man in Washington, and never did man
labor harder than Gen. Scott to prevail upon
the Free-Soil members Of the Wing party
TO abandon their position and adopt the
Compromise as measure Of the new ad-
ministration. They had sort of second
pentlcost on the Wing side of the House.
They went over and out by scores. ] am a

sorry to lose my Wing allies. =.
Any gentleman who undertakes TO make
you believe that we love slave-holding, or
running after fugitive slaves is attempting
to humbug yon. He knows it is not true
when he tells it. There is not a word of
truth in it. If you believe it, you deceive
yourselves.
But l must pass on. These measures
were passed mainly through the influence of
Clay, Fillmore, Webster, Scott, Foote and
Cobb. These were the men who carried
them through, and every man who was in
the last congress knows it.

men should misunderstood me in this mat

not mean to say that it did not receive the

A New Question,

The question now is, not Who is PIERCE
but ''Where is PRICE," We mean General
Sterling Price, of Val Verde, Charlton
county, State of Missouri, and candidate of
the United Democracy. His wing COMPETE
tor has been in the field some time, address,
ing the people-has spoken within a few
hours ride of Gen. Prices residence, but
Gen. Price was not there. Now where is
Price? Still hunting in the shades of Val
Verde" The people want to hear from
him-they want to know if he is a Benton
man. Old Bullion says he is, and that he
will vote for him: this makes the antics
look wild. Again--how is he noar, on the
Jackson resolutions? Should they be re-
pealed, or stand on our Statute Book
Come out General, and face the music

How do YOU like Scott?

This question has been asked us an hum
bred times since the news OF his nomination
was received. Scott was not our first
choice, as all our readers know; but now
that he is the nominee, is known to be, and
aItragS to have been, as sound on the Com
promise and the rights OF the South as
Fillmore, Clay or Webster, We say we like
him first rate, and are going for him with a
perfect whoop. We have ever believed,
and now believe, he is the strongest man
that could have been nominated; and further
more we sincerely believe he will be elect
ed if he lives till November. More than
this: the democracy believe so too--and
from the first they feared him more than any
other man spoken of. Now, with candi-
date whose popularity is entirely of neg
alive character who was nominated be-
cause he had never done anything of sufi-
cient importance TO make friend or a foe,
and because such trick won once, the very
thought that old Churubusco is their oppo-
nent, gives them fits! Brace up your
nerves my coveys-dont 'taint" in the
skirmish that precedes the battle, for we
want a fair rake at you, as soon as the
decks are cleared of State affairs. Prepare

The Compromise-Democrati Testimony


1t is a common practice among Democrats
to claim the late Compromise measures as
democratic thunder" because of demo-
cratic origin. We understand the Hon.
James S. Green is i'll the habit of giving his
party all the credit for those measures
Now, in April last Hon. c. F. CLEVELAND,
in a speech delivered in the Honse of Rep
resentatives, set this matter right, and as he
is not a wing, according to his own asser-
ton, we beg to quote him, democratic free
soler, against our democratic nullfers-
But, Mr.. Chairman, have promised to
show the fugitive slave law was purely of
Wing origin. These Compromises grew
out from Mr.. Clay's eight resolution, which
he introduced without consultation with any
one; and who will say that Mr.. Clay was
anything but Wing? l have great respect
for the old gentleman; give him all credit
for purity of motives; still it is known that,
when these resolutions were first introduced,
they were opposed by Mr.. Foote and other
gentlemen, most violently. They were
carried along, however, until the current
changed. Then Mr.. Foote, advocated them,
and ultimately moved the appointment ofthe
committee of thirteen. Mr.. Clay was at
the head of that committee, and drew up the
compromise resolutions and the report.
GENERAL SCOTT was, by Mr.. Fill
more, placed temporarily at the head of the
War Department, and in that position
coupled with his great military fame. was
able TO, and did, exert POWERFUL IN
FLUENCE in favor of these compromise
measures. Here, then, is every man
whose name has been mentioned, or is likely
to be mentioned as a candidate for the Pres
idency on the Wiling side, viz, Clay Web
ster, Fillmore, and Scott--ALL EXERT
ING THEMSELVES TO THEIR Ut
MOST, in pushing through this series of
measures, the SLAVE-LAW INCLUDED.
And what was the position of these distin-
guished wings? One was at the head of
the Government; anotho~ in command of the
Army; and the other two Gone living in a
slave, the other in free State, the most
distinguished men of their party, and per-
haps of the nation. Now let us see what
democrats, who are at all prominent, aided
those wings in passing the slave BILL
Two only, were active, and exerted any
considerable influence Foote, in
the Senate, and Speaker Cobb the House?
And what became of them? Both threw
themselves into the arms of the Wings, in
their respective States, and both are now
Governors of those States by virtue of wing
votes, and both have been here this winter,
exerting themselves to obtain the passage of
these resolutions affirming the compromise,
10 relieve them from their present dilemma.
Did the distinguished Senator from Illinois
vote for this law? No. Governor Cass, one
of the most distinguished men Of the nation
Of his party, did not record his vote in IA
