nea The editor of the Hamilton
"smut machine" "Minor Fillius," wakes
ljubilant over the discontinuance of the
'sBuzer County Democrat" and howls
out his rejoicings in order to attract the
attention of other puppies like himself
for the purpose of holding a mass meet
ing of "diry dogs" in order to glorify
over the disappearance of that which,
by exposing their meanness, held them
in %terrorun, and prevented tho public
from being smothered by the peculiar
od,r which animals of their nature emit
The low scavanger who allows himself
to be the conduit through which wretches
more despicable than himself, eject their
filth, merits pity more than contempt.
The article in a late number of his pa
per, is conclusive evidence that the
nominal editor is a low, scurrilous, foul
hearted and malignant wretch, a fit as
s~ociate for low bred individuals, such
as he is himself. We are gratifed that
the base scullion finds something in his
weary pilgrimage aud his disreputable
occupation, to cause a m~omentary graf
iication. le need not console himself
however, with the reflection that we
shall not attend TO his foul case, and
hold him and the cause he advocates
up to public scorn and contempt. We
are surprised that a respectable commu'
nifty tolerate such an unmitiga I'd nui
sance in their midst. His sheet spreads
over decency with an effect as appalling
as hat of the Simeon, and causes re.
spectacle people to hold their noses un

speaking, the rerutcd editor is a wretch
capable of performing any meanness
therefore, we shall decline any further
personal controversy with him, knowing
full well, that no man can wrestle with
a sweep and not get blacked. With the
principles of negro equality which he
advocates, We shall deal as We think
proper, and hold the deluded advocate
of such infamous sentiments in that
estimation which he deserves.

The Washington Union happily il
Illustrates the past, present and future Of
the Democratic party, aud its surround
ings when it says that every practical
mar knows that there is a world of diff
ference in the employment of Il hook
and ladder company who pull down a
house, and the masons and carpenters
who build it up from the old founda-
tions. The public authorities often d.
rect the demolition Of an cdifice, but il
is not by any means common to see
them re construct one. Precisely in
this light we view the combination of
republicans, abolitionists, and Ameri-
cans in their recent onslaught upon the
democratic structure. They have done
US a word Of damage. The old edifce
requires a thorough overhauling, new
braces, a good deal of plastering, and
even some ornamental wood work, but
the walls arc all sound, the foundations
are quite undisturbed, and there will
be no difficulty in making it even com
Portable during the approaching politi-
cal storm. 1t is good testimony in our
behalf that the democracy built theil
house upon a rock; it will stand amidst
the seething and surging of the waters
of ianaticism, misrepresentation and ly'
ing. 1t may be made uncomfortable al
times; but never uninhabitable. Where

Douglas ON DisorRanizers.

Senator Douglas, in one of his recent
speeches, thus emphatically condemns
the disorganizing Democrats who, in the
late elections, lent their votes to the So
called peoples party" to aid in de-
feating the regular candidates of the
Democracy:
"Such of them (his o%pponents) as are
Democrats, and show their Democracy
by remaining inside of the Democratic
organization, and supporting its nomi.
nees, l recognize as Democrats but
those who, knowing they would be vot-
ed down inside the Democratic organi-
cation, go outside and attempt to divide
and destroy it, IN concert ,cih the Peo-
pies party. have ceased to be Demo-
Gratis"
This is as accurate description of the
Forney disorganizers as could have
beeu given, even by m who was in the
State and a witness to all their nov
ments. Is it not literally true of them,
that ~"knowing they would be voted
down inside the Democratic o~rganiza-
%tion," they event outside" succeeded
in dividing it." and did their utmost
to destroy it, in concert with the an
cient and implacable enemies of the
Democratic party, now operating in the
name of 1.-The People? ? How do these
gentlemen like this life like picture of
themaelves, as drawn by the MASTER
hand of one whose special friends and
advocates they profess to be? And
how will they relish to be told by him
the Douglas whom they pretend to
idolize--that they ''hare caasel to BE-
Democrats" Should enoy hereafter
have occasion to complain of being
Tread out Of the party" We hope they
will remember that it was their own
Douglas Who did it!

the "Abolitionists" never had darker
prospects. He remarks that their de-
cline has been rapid since the public
mind was DRAM away from the aboli-
ton of slavery to its non-extension.-
The history of all parties on this sub

came that sad vote" of the Republi-
cans in Congress that Kansas might
come into the Union with slavery or

Judge Douglas.

Whatever may be the relations which
Judge Douglas sustains toward the
Democratic party of the nation, one
thing is certain-he has endorsed the
champion Of Black hepublicanism in
Illinois and robbed the Opposition of a
triumph which they confidently and
foadiy anticipated; aud whatever good,
or ill, his reelection to the U. S. Sen
ate, may bring to the Democracy, it is
not to be denied that his success has
demoralized the Black Republican or
ganization in Illinois, and has laid on
! the shelf one of the most talented and
untiring of its leaders. When at the
beginning of the last session OF Con-
gress, Judge Douglas opposed the Kan,
sas policy of President Buchanan, the
Black Republicans were loud in their
praises of his independence, and literal
ly bedizened his name with their gilt
tering laudations. OF late, however,
they have acquired a distaste for his
independence and they now begin
to thiuk that Douglas isn't so patriotic
after all. What a pity that they have
been compelled to change their opinion
of the Little Giant and how sad tina
they should have been defeated by the
very man they fain would have reeeiv'
ed into their organization Alas anc
