personal respect for Mr.. Clark, whom he does
not accuse of having employed any dishouora-

BY such election returns as we have received,
we are inclined to believe that the county and

the following on the Illinois Canvass:
Whatever may be the result Of the Illinois
canvass, itlseems clear that Mr. Douglas has
