GOV. Jones Dodges Discussion.

We have before stated that this Sampson
of the Democratic hosts had declined to
allow his disunion sentiments to be discuss.
ed His new allies buster largely about
his ability to carry the old Wings of Ten
neSsee with him, and the announcement of
his intention to canvass was heralded forth
as the sure precursor of Mr.. Fillmore's ruin
liz this State They seem to have all con-
idence in him, and rest all their hopes in
this State upon his efforts. We believe
that before his list of appointments was
published, the shrewdest of their calculators
had abandoned the idea of fighting any
longer for Tennessee When this recreant
Daniel came to judgment" however, they
were fred with fresh courage-but with not
enough 10 permit him to be met in debate.
He and they know that his position is
untenabe, and that he is, of all men, vul-
nerable A discussion of the fliusy pre-.
texts for his treason would scatter them
like chaf before the wind. His treachery
to be made serviceable must be viewed only
on one side. They will guard him from
contact with an opponent, as they would
the great Koh--noor from robbers. He is
a delicate treasure whose value is destroy
ed if he be but touched.
The impudence which permits him to face
the f-eemen Of Tennessee at all is sublime,
but he has not the hardihood to stand be-
fore them with competitor at his side, to
expose his miserable sophistry, and de,
nonnce the traitorous sentiments which he
put forth in his speech at Memphis His
position, if he had not raised his unhallow,
ed voice for disunion, was very assailable,
but that man who advocates dissolution
of the Union in Tennessee may well de.
cline to debate it.
Gov. Jones will travel alone in his can,
vass, and when the election has past he
viii remain alone-despised by those whom
be has deserted, and cursed by those whose
cause he could not save.

Louisiana Dcmocracy-A screw Loose.

We republish this morning from the
New Orleans DELTA, a significant assault
upon the Democratic candidate for the
Vice Presidency, Mr. Breckenridge. The
Deita has been regarded as one of the
ablest and soundest Democratic Journals
in the South, and it seems determined to
maintain its reputation at all hazards.
The Democracy of 1856 have strayed far
away from the doctrines which in former
years distinguished the policy of the party,
and even here in the South, it not only
tolerates the unconstitutional doctrine of
squatter sovereignty, but numbers of the
leaders are embracing it as the true theory
of free government. 1t is not surprising,
therefore, that State Rights journal like
the Delta should demonstrate Indignantly
against the new order of things which now
gives tone to the party Since the pointed
article which we republish appeared, the
Delta has been taken to task by some of
its party friends, who regard expedieucy
with more favor than principle, and on the
oath ultimo, it replies to their reproofs as
follows:
"From the beginning we stated that though
! Buchanan and Breckenridge were not such
persons as we should select for the Presidency
and Vice Presidency, nevertheless, AS the best
| in the field, we would support them, and give
/ them reluctant vote in November next But

Mr.. calhoun said OF Mr. Clay, "the specious

The speech Of Mr.. Breckenridge, con.
demned by the Delta, as "ABoLIrroSIsH IN

AAother Democratic papers, South, has been
Applauded by many Of them. whilst they
are seeking. and viii continue to seek, as

BG- The Union and american referring
TO a proposition in this paper some weeks
since to wager 500 that if Gov. Jones
canvassed the State it would 60 for Fill
more, says it sent down yesterday to have
it taken up, and was informed that it had
been withdrawn. Its messenger was also
informed that the reason of its withdrawal
was in order that it might be quiDtupled-
$500 offered instead Of 800. This was
the cause of his failure to be met. The
party making the offer has not called on us
since, and we do not know his wishes or
intentions.
The proposition offered on Tuesday was
retained in yesterdays issue through mad
yertency.
