pa-Thc Diario de Rio dc Janeiro, OF
June 9th, has a long article vigorously
urging political alliance with the
United States, which should extend
even to the formation of principle OF
interven ton in such cases, and of such
character as might be Judged proper,
in order to control the interests and
protect the rights of the various States
in the two Americas" AS prclimina-
ry step, the Diario urges the establish
ment of a line of steamers between Rio

ian government to support project on

COOP ADyICE.-Goy. Corwin closed
his late speech in Warren County, Ohio
with the following advice
"Let us all go home and, as the
preachers sometimes say, search orr
bosoms with lighted candle. We
shall find good many snakes and
frogs there which we must expel, and
then let us exert the great power OF
our vote for the benefit Of 10000, 900 OF
people, with clean heart and clean

we shall hear very little about Republi.

The Campaign in Illinois was opened
by public discussion between Hon.
Abram Lincoln, and Hon Stephen A.
Douglas, at Ottawa, on Saturday, the
2lst ute The prominence Of the two
men, and their Acknowledged abilities
made the occasion one of deep interest
70 their respective friends, and very
klSe enthusiastic audience.
ThS>act that the present Senatorial
term of Judge Douglas is about to ex-
pire, and his successor to be elected by
the next Legislature, Douglas himself
being candidate itr reslection, and
Lincoln tho nominee ofthe Republicans
for the place, gave increasing inter
est and Importance TO the discussion.
Judge Douglas led off in speech,
remarkable for lis absence of fairness
and ability, repleto with the cant Of
demagogues, and full of false and mis-
taken charges against his.opponcnt and
he Republican party. The effort fail
ed N every particular to sustain his
reputation as close debater and digni-
fy6statcsman.
= The speech Of Lincoln, was in oppo-
site contrast to that of his opponent.
Clear, fair, logical, dignifcd and over
wheIming 1t met his false and dema-
gogical charges by calm, disposition
ate and truthful expose of the record,
and thereby endorsed his opponent ct
the first tilt.
The contest is one between giants,
and the stake, the highest political
position in tho Union. The unequaled
clearness and logical certainty by which
Lincoln unravels the apparently we'll
guarded sophistry of Douglas, peculiar
~ fits him to cope with the man who
early gained the soubriquet of "Littie
Giant" We are very much deceived
If he does not have to win the title of
"big giant" or como out Of the contest
"Bors de combat"
Lincoln 10 clearly bis over-match in
calm, logical discussion, equanimity of
temper and unimitable good humor,
as was demonstrated by the closing re-
MARKS OF Douglas, who cbafed, frotted
and fused, likeo wersted in debate.
We are rsjoiced to know that Illinois
is to be the battle Geld of the Campaign,
and the wager is TO be won by either Of
two such masters of the tournament, as
is Lincoln and Douglas. The cause of
human freedom. and the rights of the
States of this Union, is safe in the hands
Of Abram Lincoln, and we shall rejoice
to witness his success and election TO
the U. s. Senate With Lincoln and
Trumbull in the Senate, Illinois may
well boast ofthe ablest representatives
in that body. How bumiisting TO an
Indianian, when be turns to compare
our own bogus delegation, in the per-
sons of Bright and Fitch, to the mon
whom Illinois cntrusts with her honor
and interests.
To the friends of free thought, free Ia
Dor and free States, in our sister sucker
State, we expect to rally around the
standard OF your gallant champions in
this noble struggle, and by dint Of
continued effort, hurl into the teeth of
demagogues the new dogma proclaimed
by the bred Scott decision, of our
highest judicial tribunal.

AMERICANISM.-.JuSt now the demOc-
racy are engaged in manufacturing rea-
sons for the overthrow and general
route ofthe party. Different democrat.
ic presses invent different excuses. In
this particular neighborhood, it is
thought know-nothingism will answer,
best to satisfy the disappointed democ-
racy. Hence there isabundance of talk
about fusion between Americans and
Republicans. The fact is carefully
kept out of sight, that the Americans in
New York, Massachusetts, and other
States, had in nomination and supper
ted distinct candidates for Stare of
fees, and that in the Congressional. and
Legislative districts, where the Ameri-
cans did not run candidates of their
own, they fused with both Democrats
and Republicans, according to their po-
litical affinities on the slavery question.
This attempt to inStil into the minds OF
the "unterrifed," that the Know-noth-
ings are after them, will hardly take ,es-
pecially while the fact is fresh in their
memory, that practical Know-nothing
was put in nomination in an adjoining
District for member Of Congress by the
Democracy. T

Disunion Democratic Candidate fol
1850.

The democracy have much to say
about the republicans being disorganiz-
ers and plotters of disunion. There are
more disunion sentiments uttered in the
ranks of the democracy in single day,
than among republicans in the course Of
many years. Democratic presses all
over the south, are in the habit of open.
ly advocating dissolution of the Union
A democratic paper-the Daily True
Southron, published at Vicksburgh,
Miss, now lying on our table, has at
least half dozen editorials, threatening
to blow up the Union, in the event OF
certain contingencies. In the event OF
the election of a republican President
in 1860, the True Southron says:
Sooner than see the Government
pass into the hands of the Black Repub-
licans, we would. if We had the power,
shiver it into million of fragments
Parasites and hacks may call us trai-
tor " until they grow hoarse, but we
shall none the less hold and utter the
opinions which are alike the result of
judgement and of patriotism
Speaking of the recent elections in the
north ern states, the same paper remarks
BLACK Republicanism is rampant
throughout the land. 1t has the Ad-
ministration by the throat and will stran-
gle it, and yet people talk to US about
National Democracy, National Wing
gerry, and National Americanism. They
are all shams and humbugs."
In respect to the national democratic
convention, to assemble at Charleston,
5. c., in 1860, the Southrom gives the
following democratic advice:
Let the South demand the candidate
in 1860, and if this be denied, let her
withdraw from the convention If the
south is to be tabooed, let us know it,
but do not let Southern Democrats long
er submit to the rule of Northern imbe-
Giles. If they are not entitled to name
a President once in sixteen years, it
strikes us that the partnership may as
well be dissolved"
Who are the sectionalists {? Who are
continually threatening to blow the
Union to atoms, provided particular
sections of it cannot have things their
own way?
