The Washington Union and the Richmond En-
quirer are the two Leading National Democratic
organs Of the country This proposition no ntelli-
gent man will attempt to controyert. The Union
speaks for the Administration, and that portion Of
the Northern and Southern Democracy which sup
ports Mr. Buchanan. The Enquirer has led the De.
mocracy Of Virginia on to victory for more than
thirty years and its pretensions to organship are
therefore, fully equal If not superior to those Of the
Union, which has only been in existence some four.

political status Of the Influential journals named.
The detection Of Senator Douglas from the Democ-
raey last winter is SO fresh in the minds Of our read
ers, Chat even passing explanation OF it here il
unnecessary. Well, Mr., Douglas returned home
lately, and made great speech Of Chicago, which
was enthusiastically received He was bold and de-
CANT in the maintenance OF hisposition assumed last
session. although he did intimate that this country
was made for white men, and that the negro came
Of an inferior race. Referring to this speech, and
abiding to certain 'mysterious givingsont that Mr.
Douglas would go home and again, by bold declara-
ton reunite himself with the Democratic party the
Washington Union says
We have at length the Geographic report of his
speech at Chicago. Ii may be imperfect in point OF
rnatter-it may not embrace all Mr.. Douglas said
We sincerely trust it Isl that much has been left out
and much reported which Mr. Douglas did not say.
The latter would be most desirable amendment Of
the speech for what is reported to have been said
will greatly astonish the country. Mr.. Donglas we
fear, has mistaken demonstration in his behalf in
two three cities for popular support and confidence
BY the whole country He arTaigns the Democratic
party of last winter and declares that he and his
friends defeated and Frustrated it in the passage of
the English bill, which he and his friends opposed
and voted against The English bill was all wrong
Mr. Douglas could not endorse it he voted against
it; it became, nevertheless, a law. That law then
became q triumph to Mr. D0uglasl There are some
things too deep for ordinary minds; and this was
never made clearer than in the report Of Mr. Douglas
speech. What was the object of the Senator? Did
he wish to reopen the old wounds Did he desire to
set up oE himself the small capital Of two or three
public reeeptons2 Has his vanity so overcome his
Judgment that he can for moment suppose that
istesntteeietts ef the Democratic paatg are about
10 stfy themselves, condemn Their conduct last tCia-
ten and come out u0o 5er that most infamous Of aB
abolition measures the Gfttenden amendment tsich
Mr. Douglas 70Ie SO tU6rNllg approves
We say in all candor to the Illinois Senator, that
be never made greater mistake, 1t was his place
to forget what passed last winter. He was interested
in forgetting ID The country was all ready to reeog
nze and endorse his detective memory in this respect
We believe Mr. Douglas himself really desired to OBJ
iterate tue nuite banders Of the late session. But
he nnst vindicate bis consistency. He must 90 down
70 bis people aud show them that he was quite i'm
maeulatethat he never made bunders !: and in that
Sarcastic, bitter and eXeoriatng although couched
in tolerably courteous language. The organ OF the
Administration could not well have been more severe
It denounees the Grittenden amendment as the
most infamous of an abolition measures" which
tsays, Mr Douglas nov 50 i1armig aPprooes.p A
more formal reading out Of the Democratic party
could hardly be imagined.
Tie following is from the Richmond Enquirer Of
the 14th instant:
DOUGLAS IN THE FIELD.-0ur illinois exchanges
TEEN with accounts of Senator Dougla87 reception
among his constituents. The ceremony oF a public
reception at Chicago was conducted with an unusual
display Of enthusiasm Altogether the opening scene
Is aaspicions, Mr, Douglas has plunged at once in
n1edias res He has not paused for mere exchange
of eompHments-nor has he chosen to assume the
position OF repentant supplicant which some of his
own party would fain impose on him. and which il
he had stopped to it, would have involved him and
the whole Democratic party in Illinois with him, in
ineVitable defeat He has adopted the only line OF
conduct to be expected from man true alike to his
own dignity of character and the welfare Of bis
party. Lec0mptOn and anti-LeGompton men have
united To receive him aa d public servant, tried and
trusted IN high POSITION He receives the commit
mentin the same generous spirit in which it Is ten
dered, Rea6irming and yiudcating the sentiments
which have influenced his action during TEMPORARY
division OF opinion among his party, lie announces
ms readiness TO forget every aperty engendered in
opinions on the common ground, where they can all
rally for the perpetuation Of sound policy and the
common interest OF National party. AT the first
breath, the unjust mputation Of any liberation of
Black Republieansm il scattered to the Winds He
assumes at once the responsibility of endorsing and
defending the bred Scott decision thus throwing the
gauntlet at the onset to the minians of fanatiesIn
This is the man whom some Of our disnnion cotem-
pofares still persist in taxing with Black Republican
aliation We predict that the best of these violent
nsatants Wilt long retract every hastY expression
hitherto employed against the man who Is fighting so
dfdeattg te battle Of The constitutional rights of The
South on Northern soil Already we hear it sng-
gested that some Of the utaisis are gfavey consid
ering the propriety of putting Mr. Douglas forward
ns their tavofite candidate for the nomination at
Charleston II the threatened diseard IL cur ranks
shall eyentuate in bringing back this class of poll
tlcians to proper sense of the Importance of the
Union, Under The leadership of such d man as Mr.
D0agLGs we will at last be enabled to extract much
good out Of the transient evils incident to the Kansas
emhroglio.
Mark the difference Of sentiment between the two
prominent Democratic organs of the country Could
1t be wider2 The Washington Union, with little or
no qualification, strongly condemns Senator Douglas
and his course. The Richmond Enquirer unquali-
tiedly sustains and endorses Senator Douglas-hods
him up as a Southern champion-and plainly init
mates that if Southern "ultraistsa would properly
estimate the Union, ''under the leadership of such
man as Mr. Douglas the loss Of Kansas TO the South
and the quarres arising therefrom, would actually
result in good instead Of harm
without attempting an explanation of the rrecon
ciahle difference in opinion, on subject Of vital
moment, between the Union and Enquirer, we leave
