DOUGLAS IN THE SOUTH.


The MssissiPpian, the leading organ of the
Black Democracy in the State, says;
We have been accustomed to regard Mr.
Hunter one Of the purest statesmen in the
Democratic ranks, and have often thought of
the satisfaction it would afford us to support
him for the Presidency; but if it be true that
he has consented to such an arrangement as
above indicated, to secure the oflice-if he has
sullied his garments with the foul touch of
Douglasism-we desire to say now, and with
emphasis, that the Democracy of Mississippi
will have none Of him The man who is base
enough to court the favor of the infamous de-
serter Of his party, and the vile betrayer of its
most cherished principles in the tima of great
est need and severest trial, is not to be trusted
as the leader Of the Democracy in the eventful
struggle before us. 1t may be that Douglas
and his squad Of adherents will thrust them
selves into the Charleston Convention, and that
they will be able to decide the struggle as they
did at the last session of Congress, when they
enlisted under the sooty banner of the Black
Republicans; but woe to the glorious old party
of the country, and the great interests which
are involved Its success, If such should be its
fate AT all events, let the Democracy of the
South mark well the progress of events, and
mark we'll, too, the ambitious aspirants who
may be detected betraying their principles and
demoralizing their party by low intrigue and
unholy combinations"
The Montgomery (Ala.l Advertiser quotes
the above, and remarks;
=" We endorse, most heartily, every word of
our cotemporary's article in regard to Senators
Hunter and Douglas. No man at present oc-
cuples higher and more commanding position
in the eyes of the South than Senator Hunter.
He Would no a standard arar in uvbor, 10
South could faithfully con6de But, in the
words of our cotemporary, 'ifhe'has suHied his
garments Wih the foil touch Of Dougldsis,a, ace
desire to sag nor, and ,Uih emphasis, that THE
DEMOCRACY OF ALABAMA WILL HAVE NONE OF

tits not surprising that an organization which
has shown itself able to subdue to its purposes
administrations and statesmen of all political
parties, and the Congress of the United States,
however constituted politically, has found it
easy TO rule with rod of iron an association
mainly composed of simple-ninded men of sci
ence, with no aspirations but such as become
scholars, and as free from all design to deplete
the Treasury of the United States as they are
full of zeal to replenish the treasury of knowl-
edge. The Zouaves of the Coast Survey, in the
National Association, united by the cohesive
power of public plunder,' have become the
scourge of the men of science in this country,
and the scorn of the same class everywhere
