inst, was failure, is fair spec men of
its regard for truth. The misrepresenta
tons contained in its articles are so glaring
that they cannot fail to bring contempt for
the author. The editor of the Republican
is the only member of the party, that we
have heark spead of it, but what admitted
that it was the largest gathering ever held
by any political p'rty. in the county. TIE
convention was something more than COM
mon. or the editor would net have written
notice of it, a column and half in length.
~- The Rochester Gazette has dotted
its garb of neutrality, and Is now the ad-
vocate of Black Republican principles
During the time it protested to be neu-
trail, it refused to publish the proceedings
of the Fulton County Democratic Conven-
ton, at which the Democrats of that
Co nty were justly indignant. Schuyler
Colfax. knowing that every lille helps. has.
no doubt, been the cause OF this avowei
change in the Gazette. Schuyler is..look-
ing on. on the deep vex,d with storms,
with great forebo1ings and Filings of
heart, for fear of the things that are com
ing upon him."
RE- The Republican fails to give tn 3
names of those prominent Democrats who
have admitted !,,lat the public interest re-
quires change of administration, and
says.
"If it will afford the hobblelehoys any
satisfaction TO consider the statement a
'falsehood,', we shall certainly take no
pains to dispel the pleasant delusion."
o. X; our readers will bear in mind
that the Republicans statement in regard
to prominent Democrats" is false.

rs During tie Debate in Congress or
the Lecompton question.a great many Of the
Republican papers published the speech o.
S. A. Douglas. entire. en- orsing his posi-
ton. Now, when the Republicans o
Ill. lave nominated Lincoln, for the pur
pose of defeating.him for the U. S.Senate
they can find no language in their OWL
voc; hillary sufficiently strong to exprs'
their disapprobation of his course; an /
consequently. draw largely from the Wash
ington Union, whose business it is to de
fame Mr.. Douglas. This proves, beyond
doubt that their sympathy for Mr.. Dougla
during the recent struggle in Congress
was actuaied solely by motives of selfish
ness, in the hope that Douglas would joi
their ranks, and be an instrument of sue
cess in the next campaign. When it be
came kowa that Mr.. Douglas had not &c
parte from his first principles. and was
as he ever had been. uncompromisingl
opposed to the creed of the Republican par
ty, their sympathy vanished and abuse an
defamatic have been the ruling charact
istcs that have marked their course to
wards him since that fatal error was dis
covered. From the past conduct of tn
Republicans we have good reasons to be
lieve that if Douglas would embrace Ihei
faith, and bitterly denounce the Admins
tration, that they would support him i
: preference TO any man now acting wit
: them. Mr.. Douglas has been consisten
J in his course since the passage of the Ne
| braska bill; and as his course pleased then
SO well last winter, and displeases them Sc
|, much now. they should play the dema
! gogue with him, the same as the Ne'
York Tribune did with Montgomery, o
Pensvlysnia; that is, take back allthe goo
: they have ever said of him. This is tn
only course left tlleir, if they intend to con
! vince the people that theJ are consistent
