ILLINOIS D. MocRAcY.-Wh desires that the Ma
tona Democratic party shall sacrifice all their pre-
judices-shail back down from their position-shall
make all the concession?
Either we are in the right and occupy high DEM
ocratic ground or else Mr.. Buchanan, the Cabinet,
the Democracy Of the State do no.. If we are right
Mr. Douglas is wrong, and is boiler from Democ-
racy. and if boiler, he must be taught that the
Democratic party yet condescended to lick the
hand that struck it. If there is sincere desire on
the part of Mr.. Douglas for harmony in the Demo-
cratic ranks, let him withdraw and bide his time
Let him give place to some Democrat whom we can
trust and whose election will not be an insult to
the President, as Mr. Douglass would be. We, as
National Democrat do not seek to divide and dis
tract the Democratic party, but we claim that one
hours adherence to principle is worth whole life
time of devotion to men. Mr.. Douglas has deserted
the Democratic party, by striking hands with its
foes ard warning upon its principles. We say he is
not trustworthy. Let him 60 to the Black Republi-
cans, let him stand side by side with them he did
last winter in Congress, ard will unite with you
on any true man whose ambition will not run away
with his judgment. --
Don't ask US to give up everything, and to hug
the viper to bosom to be s,ung the second time.
1t is asking too much. If union is 10 be effected,
the concession of the Dougastes must equal ours,
and we willing then to admit them to full COM

Party Tactics of the REGISTER.

The Register of the I'D instant, in its anxiety to
make party capital proposes in substance to devove
on the Democratic party of the Legislature the sole
labor and responsibility of meeting the State debt
and preserving the State credit. That paper would
ignore the existence of its friends in that body,
except for the purpose of voting-would have them
say to their constituents and TO the State by their
conduct that they have part lot in the States
welfare, and will not be responsible for any thing
which may be said or done looking to the prosecu-
ton of schemes Of internal improvements the
preservation of State credit Says the Editor of
that journal, if we were honored with a seat in
the next Legislature, our policy would be to watch
the majority-to bring them to record votes on
ry question of tolerable importance, and carefully
abstain from amending, or attempting to amend,
any of their bills, interfering in any of the diff
cuItes among themselves into which they to
fall" He goes further, and advises his friends to do
nothing but vote-the meaning of Nhich is that
they are to vote against every thing which the ma
jority may propose, in order to make capital for fu
tuIe campaigns. Such is the programme laid down
by the Register for its friends in the ensuing Legs
lature.
The next Legislature will be called upon to pro-
vide for paying some seven hundred thousand dol
lars of the principal of the State debt This debt
wds contracted under Wing rule and mainly by
Wing rotes and yet the Wing organ is foremost
with the proposition to devove the responsibility of
paying it on others. This is the party aspect of the
subject but on questions of this sort, involving
the credit ano the honor of the State. above
party II the Register and its party soiU have it
So, the Democrats will meet this, they meet all
other responsibilities, like men and like patriots
They will not shver in their seats, fearing to do
right nor will they be governed in a matter of this
kind by party considerations. Nor do we believe
that the Registers party will be unit this sub
Ject. We could point to patriotic members of the
opposition in both Houses, who will be as active
and as earnest the dominant party will be in ma
king provisions to pay the State debt and who
would scorn any advantage which might be gained
oy the course recommended by the Register.
But the Register is consistent. 1t is natural that
journal which staked its cause in the late cam
pagn against the proposition to raise the necessary
taxes to pay the State debt, and which begged the
general government to aid the State by distributing
The public lands, should now evade responsibility
even ior debt which it largely instrumental in
creating. This may be policy on the part of the
hsg'ster but it will find few persons indeed who
will call it patriotism

from Trinity Bay, dated September 23d. says:
We can at last announce the gratifying intel
gence that the Atlantic Cable is again in complete
working order. Good electrical currents have been
passed throu Oh the line for the last three days. and
though we are not informed of the transmissons of
any specific messages, it can be stated with accura-
racy that the 'signas received from Valentia are
as perfect as ever. 1t is hoped the cable will be
ready for business in few weeks at the furthest"
We hope so, and that it will stay ready.
FuRTHER-No FLASH AFTER ALL.-NEw YORK, Sep.
25.-It now appears that the despatch announcing
the working of the Atlantic Cable, was sent by the
Superintendent of the Newfoundland land lines, and
was premature.
De Sanity, the cable electrician at Trinity Bay, ir-
forms Cyrus W. Field Esq, that there has been no
change in the manifestations since September first.
