the miscreants who have caused his downfall

and see the policy pursued by this "new light

is obnoxious to them, when they would drug
him with the double distilled venom of their
hendish hate, and when they strive to sink
him beyond the power of resurrection, they
fancy nothing so well adapted to that purpose
as to fix upon him the foul principles which
they themselves have entertained and still

H6y Extract from a letter to the Editor
Dated SPARTA, (TESS.) July IA, 1856.


DEAR SIR: The course pursued by the
Sentinel meets with my unqualified approba-
tion, for it has advocated the political doctrines
which | love-that of State Rights Democ.
racy, of which the Old Dominion has been the
6rst and through her sons the ablest advocate.
Well, sir, in the recent National Convention,
that platform was readopted, which forms the
basis of one of the most engaging services
ever enunciated to the world Of mankind, and
upon the vital issues of the day it is SO clear
and distinct that he who runs may read, and
upon that platform we have placed statesman
of enlarged experience-one who has directly
and unqualifedly endorsed its principles
statesman who unites the past and the present,
and who, by his past record on all subjects. Of
like nature, offers the best guarantee Of future
nationality and stesdfast adheranoe to the prin-
ciples of State Rights Democracy
Yours, &c. U.

Letter from Hon. Daniel 8. Dickinson.
BINGHAMPToN, July IL, 1856.


My Dear Sir: have just returned from court
from neighboring county, and find your favor
of the 10th, inviting me to address the Democ-
racy OF Erie county, at Buffalo, on the 10th,
and regret to add, that special engagement of
professional character for that day will not
permit me to accept it.
! rejoice to see the Democracy of Erie NOV
ing in united and compact column, preparatory
to the great November conflict. We have
much to do, but the object to be attained is
worthy of our best and choicest efforts. We
have candidates eminently suited to the exi.
gencies of the times, and qualified for the dis.
tinguished stations with which their names are
associated and the principles involved in the
great issue about to be-tried, are, on our part,
the principles of the Constitution-of Wash
ington, Jefferson, Madison and Jackson-prn-
cipes which germinated with the embarkaton
of the Pilgrims, which found development at
Lexington, Bunker Hill, Saratoga and York
wn,-in the Declaration ofIndependence and
finally in the formal adoption of our glorious
Constitution. He who will not maintain them
is faithless and degenerate son,--he who
would put forth his hand to subvert them, is
thrice a paracide. These principles have
brought our country to its present distinguish
ed eminence among the nations of the earth
These principles, if perpetuated. will, in spite
OF the wills of the demagogue, or the howls Of
fanaticsm, give to our children's children,
through all coming time, the blessings of free
dom, happiness and peace.
Sincerely, yours, D. S. DICKINSON.
