Inc desperation Nnicu aHlbaifs .eA3-
tor Douglas is admitted by his friends.
A cause which had Its origin ina humbug,
that has been bolatered up by lies with
out number, and frauds without end, and
that il about 10 eliminate in defeat and
disgrace, needs extraordinary measures
to support it. But frantic as the nan
is-goaded az he is by the ugly record
that springs up against him whichsoey-
| or way he tnrns--infuriate as he has be
come by ATTACKS that he is powerIess 10
repel, by facts that he dare not deny. BY
the sure approached that fate which has
| been his due since he first turned traitor
to his State, we hoped that in the con-
duct of the campaign, lac would remem-
Der to observe the deceneies which arc
due to his exalted station; that, 10 addi-
ton to the disgrace which his treason TO
Freedom has eutailed upon the State
that made him what he is, he would not
descend to the personal degradation
and dshonor Of which we are about TO

have entire possession OF him, and he
stoops, though sure Of immediate 3etce-
ton, to conduct which il practieed upon
an individual for the sake of gain, would
consign him to cell inthe County Jail,
