an "opening day" is scarcely on record. Had
the programme consisted of purse races
instead of sweepstakes, the Inauguration OF
the Fall meeting had doubtless been post

sent of parties to put of stake, the race is
pretty certain to be rum rain or shine. But
as there were two of them appoint d for yes

up and start.
The ride down was literally IAN excursion

The following passage from Gov. Wise's
nervous aud eloquent letter 10 the Phila-
dslphia meeling seems to US the most
unanswerable presentation of which the
LecOmp!On fraud is susceptible in this
meridian:
1--WE have proudly, heretofore, conten-
ded only for equality and Justice; but if
this be wanlonly done, without Winning
stake-the power Of a slave State there
by-it will be worse than vain.-It will
be snatching power per Jas AIT nefas. to
be lost speedily" with the loss Of some
thing Of far more worth than political
vOtes-oU moral prestige. If we are
not willing to do justice, we can't ask for
justice. if we can't agree to equality, we
must expect to be denied it. Ii IS our
bull goriNg the anti slavery OK. Suppose
we had had a majority of shareholders in
that Territory; suppose a minority of
abolitionists had gotten the census and
registry into their hands and had kept
fifteen out of thirty.four counties out Of
the convention; suppose they had formed
constitution with clause prohibiting
slavery, and had sent il TO Congress with
out submitting it to a majority of the legal
voters; or suppose they had submitted all
parts Of the constitution to The popular
vote, Except the one clause prohibiting
slavery, knowing it would be voted down
if submitted 10 the majority Of The people,
suppose such a 'boot on the other leg"
had been submitted to Congress, and we
had then then heard the absoluteness of a
convention contended for by Black Re.
publicans, demanding of Congress to sus-
tain the doctrine Of "legitimacy." tell
you that every Southern man would have
been in arms and would be reused 10 the
shedding of blood, rather than submit 10
Congress fastening upon a majority Of
proslavery people an arbitrary rescript of
a mere convention, unauthorized to pro-
claim its constitution without an express
grant. This is the same principle, &C.
companied by triCkery and fraud. ave
are willing to do unto Others as we would
have them do unto u.s." The Southern
people ask for no injustice, no Unequal

From Washington.

The Washington correspondent of For
ney's Press says: Prentice, of the
Louisville Journal is here, and working
hard, it is said, TO get the southern
Americans to stand with Hon. Humphrey
Marshall Of Kentucky, and II. Winter
Davis of Maryland, agains. the admission
of Kansas into the Union under the LIE
compton Constitution"
He also says that the friends of Hou.
Daniel s. Dickinson are pressing him fol
the mission to the Court OF st James,
1t is the general impression chat unless
Mr.. Dallas resigns before May he will
be superseded, and therefore it is that the
appointment to succeed him is sought fol
eagerly by prominent politicians.
AT the same time the mission to the
Court of 81. Cloud will be vacated. 1t is
understood that Mr.. Mason intimated a
long while ago his intention to resign al
that time.
From these indications, the supposilion
is entertained that during The approaching
recess Of Congress Mr., Buchanan designs
carrying out the line of foreign policy
which he has more than once foreshad.
owed before he took in hand the reins OF
our government.

TALKING Our IN MEETING.-Mr.
Pierce's ex-Distrct Attorney Morton, at
the Democratic meeting at Toledo on
Monday evening, spoke some truths
which were evidently dstaslelul to por.
ton of his hearers. The office-holders Of
Mr.. Buchanan attempted 10 break up the
meeting. Mr.. Morton said the reason of
the opposition Of these myrmidons was
plain enough. "The leaders didn't know
what it was to be honest themselves, and
they couldn't appreciate honesty in 9TH
ers." ts,.4
He said: f.
"We have even heard it intima!ed that
MT. Buchanan has determined to .crush
out the doctrine, Of Popular Sovereignty.

old bachelor to do it! Immense ap-

can't be done I! Renewed cheering)
He also said: fnr afla,.

ton fraud; we wash our hands of the
