saving the Union-and Indiana.

There are several distinguished Democratic
strangers in this State at Present&on a mission
to saue The t55foa. They have suddenly be-
come aroused to the fact, that the Union j. 10
great danger, and that they are just precisely
the men to help Joe Wright and "Piedg6'' vii
lard save it. Now it appears to us, if the truth
were known, it is not the Union the danger of
which SO much troubles them, as it is they
fear the State of Indiana is in dangeT. We
have now in this State making stump speeches,
Gen ,Cass, Senator Douglas. and John G.
Breckenridge, Democratic candidate for Vice
President! Could anything better exhibit the
fright which is making the knees of Old Line
Democracy in Indiana tremble? These gen.
tlemen were all at indianapolis last Tuesday
night, with Senator Bright Gov. Wright and
Willard. The whole body made speeches,
and every speaker enlarged upon the danger
of the Union The Journal thus alludes to
the. speech Of the @little giant:''
Judge Douglas made not single statement
that was fair or honest, and in his Union saw
ing Efforts made up a speech filled with false
hoods and misrepresentation from the begin
nlng to the end. No representation was eth
er fully or fairly made. and no one but polit-
ical knave and corrupt partizan would have
given birth 60 the effort with which Judge
DOUGLAS treated his audience last night. Itis
useless to make an attempt to follow him in
his remarks Falsehood, Misrepresentation,
dishonesty and knayery shone conspicuous
throughout his whole harangue.
If the Union really be in danger, this is the
man who placed it in danger. His doughfaee-
ism apd4rascality, fruits of selfish ambition,
aided by the corruption Of the Pierce adninis-
tration, produced all this agitation which
Douglas, Gass and Breckenridge, are trying
to.make the people beHeEe, have placed the
Union in great danger. It is aoeH for them
now to start on mission to Save the Union
their infamy has placed in danger. If the
Union should be disruptured from recent acts,
history will point to Douglas and Pierce as the
great cause. They are the fathers Of this
agitation, and if Disunion be & consequence ol
the agitation as these distinguished men ap-
pear to think it mag be- the people and the
world will know where this responsibility be-
songs.

TEEmrgDaAs Hail Story IN 'GERmANr.-
The city Of Dresden, in sexoRy, was visited
on the 25th Of June with hail STORM of pn-
Freeedented severity. 1t commenced abont
noon and continued fer several hours destroy
ling several huEdred thousand dellars werth
OF property: In the suburbs the haR fell in
sued quantities that at seven ia the eyeniag IT
was literally ankle-deep, and the eRtre city
presented the appearance aef mid-wiRter Not
withstanding the heat which succeeded the
storm, large masses of hail were stiN visible
on the following afterRoon. The loss in bro
ken windoN-panes alone was estimated at ten
thousand thalers. The trees and shrubbery
Iin the royal gardens were nearly all .pFcstrat-
ed. Preparations had been made far a popu-
lar festival, which was TO take place on the
27th, on the l0gelwjss;; the tegts, booths and
daneTeg saloons which had been erected ca the
grounds we've completely demolished The
grain in the fields likewise suffered severely,
but fortunately the storm was Limited to a

CLAY Meyer Forgaye Buehanau

correspondent Of the Baltimore Sun. (neu-
tral,) writing from Capon Springs processes to
speak understandingly of the feeling which Mr..
Clay entertained towards Mr.. Buchanan:
Politcs engrosses muck Of cur thoughts. 1t
is to me 3 mystery how any friend to Mr.
Clay os 7ar. Webstereaa reconcile themselves
TO vote for Mr.. Buchanan. His conduct to the
former is well known, and Mr.. Clays abhor-
renee ofhis duplicity was only buried in the
grave. A few months before his deeease, di-
ming with friend in Washington, the mement
Mr.. Buchanan entered, his eountenanee be-
came gloomy and discontented. The host
subsequently apologfzed for his inadvertance
in remarking that Mr. Clay had abandoned all
political aspirations, and seemed willing to
consign to oblivion all personal anime&ities.--
His reply was, ~ can forgive all rRea but Mr..
B; he is unworthy even of forgi iseness =
and Mr. Buchanan's remarks at the dinner ta-
BILE, addressed to the host, convinced him Mr..
Clay was justified in his adherence.

nnnnsitinn 10 Old Lineism.


For selfish purposes and objects of their
owBJ the Old Line party is now disposed, in
this quarters.at least, to look with a great deal
of outward favor upon Fillmore men. The
Deniccratic' big guns'' who have visited US,
scarcely fired single shot into the Fillmore
camp. Indeed one or two Of them have con-
descended to plead fer Fillmore votes in the
mos taffecting terms-just as they have plead,
and with the same hypocricy, for Wing votes.
They may court US, bat they should be taught
that the Fillmore party can under no possi-
bic circumstances even sympathize, much less
affiliate with them. They. are at heart the
same bitter enemies of the American party
they Were. a few months ago. We have net
yet forgotten their abuse, their slanders, their
infamous course of conduct, towards the par
ty which is now supporting Mr.. Fillmore
They need not tell us their sentiments have
Experienced any honest change, nor need they
try to make US believe that the American par
ty looks with any more favor upon them, than
when in its National Platform it used the fol-
lowing language, as the 18Th section-of that
platform:
Opposition to the reckless and unwise poll
cy of the present administration III the gene
raj management of our national affairs, and
more especially as shown in removing fAmer
leans" (by designation) and conservatives in
! principle, from Office and placing foreigners
and uItraists in their places as shown in a
trucking subseryency to thestronger, and an
/ insolent and eowardly hravado towards the
/ weaker powers as shown in reopening sec
! tiOnal agitation, by the repeal OF the Missouri
ECompromise; as shown in granting to unnat-
uTahzed foreigners the right of suffrage in
/ Kansas and Nebraska; as shown In its yacil-
/ lating course on the Kansas and Nebraska
question as shown in the corruptions which
pervade some of the departments of the gov
ernment ;as shown in disgracing meritorious
naval officers through prejudice or caprice
and as shown in the bundering, mismaRage-
ment of foreign relations.
/ These were some of the objections Ameri-
cans and Fillmore men had to the Admins
tration few months age, and they have no
! less now. 1t would be well for Americans to
eommit the above to memory, so that when
appeals are made to them by these hypocrit:-
cll Cd Line. sre. .kers, they may appreciate the
exact position of both the speakers and them-
selves. Noafilietion with the Old Line party,
under any circumstances can be the policy Of
Fillmore men That party endorses the Ad
ministration which the American platform so
justly condemns. There is no sympathy be-
tween us. Our war is upon that party-upon
the party represented by the Pierce Admins
/ tration.

Hon. 4. M. Ellawortb,s sneech.

We, have missed hearing several speeches
made here this campaign, but from what we
have heard of Hon. II. w. Ellsworth's address
of "Wednesday night, we more regret having
missed it-than any other Of the canvass. We
understand he made the best and most telling
speech delivered in Evansville this political
season. He waged merciless war on the
Old Line Democracy, skinning them from heel
to toe, and exposing the inconsistencies and
corruptions of that party in the most scathing
manner. His speech was not only powerful
and eloquent, but at times amusing as it was
severely satircal. 1t touched the Yasc Of some
Democrats so roughly. that they left in the
middle ofhis speech. They conld stand al
ordinary handling bat it was beyond their
philosophy to keep from stirring, while under
going sucira surgical operation as Ellswofth's
mastery hald put them through. They
should have recolieetqd that the speaker was
was an old Denoerat-a Democrat highin au-
thority, and honqred with the patronage Of
Democratic adm Illustrations IN times. by gone.
lie &saosqs the corruptions Of theirparty, and
this krowiedg &c gave him much of his power in
its rottenness.
Ellsworth had a gOodmany hearers, but
not the pldltitade which would have assem-
bledhad he been better known in this region
We hope he viii repeal that same Speech II
Evansville before the election. We promise
himin suchevent ten hearers to where he had
one last Wednesday evening. Fillmore meF
were there, and they had no complaint t.
make of his speech, or we have heard of none
The aggrieved parties are only Old LineDem

The sentinel and Buehanan Difsring.

The State Sentinel, under its new admins
tration, comes out e1nphaticaRy for Squatter
Sovereignty that the people Of a
territory have the right TO make their own ter
ritorial laws relative to slavery. This is the
Democratic doctrine North, but it is not the
Democratic doctrine South It becomes thus
an important matter to know Jas. Buehanan,s IS
opinions on this subject. He is the Demo
cratic Platform and nothing else,' that is true
---but unfortunately this Platform is so nuch
mixed and so differently construed in different
sections, that We mus go beyond it to learn
Mr.. Buchanan's real position. It appears that
in 1848 Buchanan occupied position diarnet-
ricaIly opposed to that now occupied by the
Sentinel and its NORTH srn Democratic eoadlu-
tors, aud nothing can be found in his after life
10 shew ne has since changed his opinions
lie was then opposed to the people of terri
tories legislatlDg on the subject of SlaEery.--
He denied that they had any power whatever
TO legiSlate on that subject He denied that
they had amy political rights as inhabitants Of
territories. In proof of this, we give the FOL
lowing letter from Mr.. Buehanan-
