advancing the well-being, socially, intel

The Auti-Lecomptonites.


The AntiLecompton portion of the
Democracy says the Toledo Blade, ap-
pear TO be somewhat in the fix of a
man who drew an elephant in alottery.
The question as to what he should do
with his prize at once became a seri-
Gus one. Forney and other prominent
democrats labored hard in the recent
contest to defeat all members of their
party who protested allegiance to the
administration = in short, they de-
nounced, condemned and waged war
upon all who put their faith in the only
really recognized head of the party.
And through the assistance thus rem
dered, the Republicans were victori-
Gus in many districts where otherwise
they could have had no hope. And
now having thus struck down their
own household and brought it to the
feet of their opponents = having de-
stroyed the harmony and the, power OF
the democratic party, and placed them
selves in an attitude the importance OF
which lis somewhat difficult to define,
they are beginning to look around to
see where they are, and what is to be
done. If by their course and the vic
tory gained in Illinois, they can pre-
sent evidence of strength sufficient to
induce a union of the party upon their
platform-if they can sink Buchanan,
and draw his followers over to them
selves there may be hope for them. 5aa
Can they do this-can they compel
the submission of that faction of the
party which holds in its hands all the
spoils and the power of this vast Gov
eminent, and lead it to bow at the feet
of set of leaders who have exhausted
their private means in securing the sim
gle victory which now so cheers them
We grant the Administration may not
be SO powerful-especiallyi in the North
in the number of its vassals, as the
seceeding portion of its original constit-
uents, but it is powerful in the might
which money makes, and possesses nc
scruples that will prevent any use Of
that power which may be necessary to
secure its ends.
Thus situated we regard the Democ
racy as occupying very critical posi-
ton. Unless it can unite its diverse
elements its power is gone, never tc
return. We presume the political doc
tors will at once set about to heal it
and we shall watch the process, with
much the same feeling that we should
regard an attempt to re-adjust a broker
aooode,a leg.

The Douglas Jubilee.

The Douglasites celebrated his mi
nority victory in Chicago, on Thursday
evening of last week, according to the
programme. All the office-hunters from
different parts of the State, who believe
Douglas is to be the next Locofoco
candidate for President, were on hand
ready to crawl in the dust at their mas
ter's feet. Any number of glorifcation
speeches were made, one of which was
by Douglas himself, in which he claimed
the result of the election in Illinois as
triumph of T" the great principles of
popular sovereignty" Considering
that there is majority in the State
against him upon the State ticket,
though he has secured a majority of
the members of the Legislature by an
Ubiquitous apportionment, this is about
as cool a specimen Of irnpudence as
even Douglas has ever exhibited.

The New York Courier d Enquirer
has the following speculations as to the
probable character of Mr.. Buchanan's
forthcoming Message:
Looking to Mr.. Buchanan's antece-
dents. there exists, we think, some just
cause for anxiety in regard to the forth
coming Presidential Message. When
James E. Polk was President, Mr.. Bu-
chanan was his Secretary OF State,
and the Mexican war was deliberately
"got up" for the purpose of securing
Folks reelection. Was or was not
that measure the work of James Bu-
chanan? Certain it is, that he remained
in Mr.. Folks Cabinet to the last and
if he did not counsel that proceeding,
he certainly countenanced it. True,
the Mexican war did not re-elect Mr..
Polk, and did elect Gen. Taylor but
that Mr.. Buchanan says, was the fault
of Mr.. Van Buren, and his son John,
and their foolish free soil notions; but
as they have both been persuaded to
abandon their professed principles, and
the son has publicly been made to dis
grace and humble himself as few men
ever consented to do before. Buchan-
an reasons that there is nothing to app
prehend from such another escapade,
and that the scheme may again be re-
sorted to, with some little prospect of
success. Accordingly we find the n.
Y. Herald, and other special organs Of
the Executive, since the late elections
bat not previously, foreshadowing the
prospects of difficulty with both
England and France, growing out of
the Central American question This
looks ominous; and we advise the peo-
pie to be prepared for an attempt on
the part of the President to get up a
a difficulty with those great Powers,
if practicable. ~ es
Then again, a difficulty with Spain
is spoken of, as quite possible if not
probable. In short, the country must
be prepared for a. war-like message;
but such a document need not cause
any alarm. Neither England nor
France, desire any difficulty with the
United States; and knowing as they
now do, how utterly without friends or
sympathy, is the Executive, they will
not take offence at anything he does
which can be disregarded without dis
honor. And while Congress is in ses-
sion, there will be no danger of a
collision however much desired. Let
the message be as bellicose as it may,
it will excite no other feeling but COM
tempt on either side of the Atlantic.
Another feature of the Message, will
be its tariff recommendations. Not
because Mr. Buchanan believes in a
Protective Tariff-being pledged up to
the hub to free trade-but because he
has been told that thus Pennsylvania
may be won back. The South, how
ever, demur; and in consequence, we
hear of Cabinet difficulties and the
probability of Mr.. Cobb's leaving the
Treasury to give place to Northern
Tariff Democrat! What will the South
say to this I? "Aye, there's the rub -
and the great effort of the Northern
Democracy now is, to convince the
President that the South will be COM
PEELED to submit on the plea of absolute
necessity : the Treasury being bank
lrupt. Poor old gentleman = they say
he is seventy-fve-how he must be
worried, and how utterly at loss he
must be, turn which way he may

Illinois.


The official returns show that Sena-
tor Douglas is in q minority in Illinois
of 9,116. The entire vote of the State
is 252, 1922, being Republican gain OF
nearly thirty thousand over the Ere
mont vote of 1856. The Republican
majority in State ticket is 4,O25, and
on Congressman ALA. The Admins
tration vote is only COOL, Mr.. Doug
las should in justice shape his course
to accord with the popular sentiment
of his State. The Press and Tribune
notes the fact that the Republicans
have held all the counties that they car.
ried for Fremont, and have in addition
carried some counties which went for
Buchanan in 1855. Though seemingly
overcome, the Republicans of illinois
are victorious. m s.
