The Office Of the Telegraph Company,

ted last night in honor of the late successful
termination Of the Atlantic cable expert
ment, and the establishment of a vital
electrical current between tho Old and the
New World. We presume tho event was
properly commemorative last night in the
different Telegraph Offices, both in this
country and in Europe, if the Agamemnon

"Little Dug" as they call him, is

Dug fights well, but We apprehend he will
hardly be able to keep his place in the SEN

To the Electors Of the Sd Judicial District In
Iowa.


Frequent inquiries having been addressed
to me in relation to my position as regards
the District conventions that have been
called by the political parties of the day, |
feel called upon to define my position in re-
laton thereto.
Prior to my departure for the East, in
May last, was strongly solicited BY men
of all parties, to become candidate for
the Judgeship at the next election. This
solicitation came from the electors of the
different counties comprising the District,
and was coupled with request, that would
be an independent candidate or peoples
candidate, and not the exclusive candidate
Of political party as such.
These solicitations coming rs they did, d.
rectly from the people, and from all par
ties, did not feel at liberty to disregard,
and left the matter wholly in the hands of
my friends. They, in my absence, without
further consultation with me, have had me
announced as a candidate; and believing that
they acted in good faith, in tho same spir.
it and in accordance with their solicitations
accept the announcement as my own, and
offer myself to the people Of the Sd Judi
cial District of Iowa, rs an independent
candidate for the Office of District Judge,
without reference to the action of the party
conventions that have been called. 1t is
with satisfaction, that assume this posi-
ton marked out by my friends. 1t is in nc
cordance with nv own deliberate Judgment
and believe will be approved by the mass
of the people. 1t tends SO far AS my action
is concerned, to keep the election Of judi
cial officers free from the strife and excite
ment of party contest. A judicial officer
should be above party ties, both in his ac-
ton and his election. He should not feel
bound to any party, nsr know to whom be
owes his election,
In conclusion, return my sincere thanks
to my present constituents for the uniform
favor and kindness have received ut their
hands in the discharge of the official duties
during my present term of Office, and point
TO the manner in which have discharged
those important duties, as the simple pledge
Of my future faithfulness, should I be sus-
tained by the people at the coming election.

A Sensible View Of the Republican Party

The Hon. JOHN c. BRECKENRIDGE. Vice.
President of the United States, lately made
a stump speech at some obscure place in
Kentucky, intending to bear an the election
which is about to take place in that State.
1t was not perhaps quite in keeping with the
dignity of his position to make a stump
speech at all; but it is creditable to him that
he uttered moro truth on the occasion than
usually falls from the lips of a Democratic
orator. He appreciates the position and
strength of the Republicad party, as may be
seen by the following extracts from his
speech:
"Thc Republican party" said he, sis the
strongest organization in the Union, unless
the Democratic party is stronger. 1t is the
only great living vital organization that has
or can withstand the Democratic party. 1t
is powerful, a compact, hopeful organ
ization. y Republicans don't mean to
change their name or their issues ; they are
too strong, too powerful, too confident for
tahekians to to; 60 IN with them then u and form
Peoples party, to break down this great
dominant party. s." Don't depreciate
the strength Of the Republican party. Its
principles are deeper aud broader, and its
purposes more resolute than anything on
the surface would indicate. Don't under
rate their power"
The Council Bluffs nonpareil. [volume] (Council Bluffs [Iowa]) 1857-1867, 1858-08-14

The principlei is this, and will ever remain
in force, that men, by nature, are free. 1t
Is so conceded, on all bands, that the right
to be free can never be acknowledgements.
entail Congress.
1t is among my first wishes to see some
plan by which Slavery in this country may
be abolished by Washington.
Slavery is contrary to the law of nature
and of nations William Writ.
Slavery is repugnant to the principle of
Christianity: it prostitutes every benevolent
action of the human heart.-Patrick Henry

Missouri Eicction-Dc feat Of Frank Blair.

Missouri Elcc,ion-Dcfeat frank Blair.
Contrary to the hopes and the firm belief
of every Republican in the Union, says the
Dubuque Times, tho result Of the election
in St. Louis, on the I'd Of August, was mos,
disastrous. We had thought was morally
certain that Mr.. BLAIR, the PRESENT member
of Congress and the candidate for re-elec-
ton on the part of the Emncipatlonists
would be triumphant. But there were three
tickets in the 6eld-and thefree soil vote
divided itself into its originl componen,
parts-Democratic and Whig-the former
going for Mr.. BLAIR, and thelattcr for Mr.
BRECKENRIDGE; while the Slave Democracy
went for Mr.. BARREr. Although the result
shows the free-soilers, if united, would be
in large majority, still, by the unfortu.
nate division of their strength, the Slave
Democracy has triumphed. Once more
have the foolish and even worse than fool
ish preiudices of the Know Nothing party
stepped in between freedom and slavery,
and given to the latter vitory that of
right belonged to freedom.
The St. Louis Democrat, NJ. BLA1R's Or
gan, says:
"This result, it is needlessto say, has
been both unexpected and disastrous. Our
confidence was never frmer than on yester-
day, for We could not conceiv. it possible,
that men having the interest, of a great
cause at heart, could draw of and stand
aloof upon third candidate. Of the effect
the election is likely to exert upon Missouri,
at home and abroad, we can only coniec-
ture; but fear that Il plurality triumph will
be accepted in the most unfavorable light
against US. From lands end to lands end.
the news will be teiegraphed as confirming
the policy of James buchanan, and certain.
!y our State, If avoided BY immigration,
Will drop back into the ruts of staCna,ion.
from which the victories of the last tw O
years had only partially relieved it.
In the resume of the CAMPAIGN. we cam
not but feel that where the battle was fouoh,
1t was done sallantly. For our own part.
we nave contested every foot of ground,
every point of argument, every legitimate
appliance of political warfare. If defeated.
we have only to say that it is par. of the
fortune that attends every prolonged con.
test. We do not for that reason either des.
pair or surrender. We have unfurled the
hag for 1860, and come veal come woe. this
journal will not strike its colors in the con-
tlict. We shall fight for the last plank in
the ship, and run up the ensign in gun
boat, # need be.''

Strange Conduct Of Gov. Cumming At Utah.
The following is an extract from q pri-
vate letter to gentleman in St. Louis,
to the Democrat of that city:
GREAT SALT LAKE CITY,,
Ir,,

You will have heard how our corpulent
Governor has been ''Stcptoed" by the Nor
mons. lie seems to me to be almost insane.
He takes pains to quarrel with every Gen
tile within his reach, from Gen. tombstone,
the Commissioners and Judge Eckels, down
to your humble servant; and to affiliate with
the first cut-throats in the whole Mormon
community. lie is alternating the only true
friends he has-the only persons on whom
he can expect to lean when he finds that he
has been fooled by Brother Brigham.
The very table on which am writing,
has on it evidence of the rascality of the
Mormons in respect to the mail. q am
scrawling this to you in the Post Oflice.)-
Directly in front Of me, is pile of letters,
all of which have been opened by steaming
them until the gum on the envelope ceased
to stick, or by cutting open the ends of the
envelopes and sticking them carefully to-
gether again.
They call the present condition of affairs
''harmony;" or at least the Governor calls
it so; but there is not a Gentle in the city
who does not sleep with a revolver under his
pillow.
The vanguard Of the army is expected to
arrive to- morrow, and then we shall breathe
freer. If Gen. Johnston had the supreme
civil power Of the Territory in his hands,
as he has the military, We might have du-
rable peace. As it is, this patched up mess
of Gov. Cummings will cease to stick rs
soon as it il steamed.
