The RESTORATION OF DOUGLAS TO TIE
DEMOCRATIC PARTY.-Baltimore, May J..
The Washington correspondent of the
New York Courier and Enquirer says
Negotiations are understood to be in pro-
gress for the restoration Of Douglas to the
Democratic party in regular form. The
condition which the Douglas party insist
upon is that the other division shall cease
to denounce popular sovereignty as to
slavery in the Territories and shall oppose
the principle no farther than to crush it
ont by executive Interference. by feleral
patronage, by courts and mobs, and final
~, by the army, in cases where all others
fail. The compromise will probably be
adopted without prejudice to the great
object Of the universal expansion Of sla-
very. for after all, this question viii be
settled, not by what is said. but by whit
is done; while using all the powers of the
Government TO Introduce slavery into q
Territory or State, it is perfectly easy
for the Democracy to avOw an intense
devotion to the will and sovereignty Of
the people. Bargain to be male in
these plain and practical terms will rein
state Mr.. Douglas as a candidate before
the Charleston Convention Gin. Gaz.

Such rush of emigrants TO that inte-

ders and mountaineers upon whom it de-
clared it could rely /; and whenever any

that he was mistaken. And yet, according

nothing else than that its efforts would

Senator Green, of Missouri, has suS-
gested a compromise between the disa-
greeting factions of the Democracy, which
meets the approval Of President Buchan-
an AMI Secretary Cass, and which, It IS
expected. will unite the party. The
Western Democracy insists on the rem
statement Of AIr. Douglas as a regular
member of the party. Mr.. Green proPo-
ses to drop all discussion upon interview
ton and intervention, as non essen
tial, and proposes also the withdrawal OF
all opposition to the admission of Kan
sas, whether as Free or Slave State, IN
the next Congress. The basis Of accom-
mediation is accepted by the Administra-
ton, and the breach between the factions
of the Democracy is regarded as healed

It will bo seen that the Free State ma
iority is so. Mr.. Markham runs ahead
Of the ticket, from the fact that several
Democrats voted for him, and several
persons voted ticket containing only his
name. His getting so many votes ahead
Of the ticket, is mainly owing to the effort
made in certain localities to defeat him,
because he lives in White Cloud.
There were 81 votes polled here. and
the Free State majority exceeds the most
sanguinc expectations of every one. 1t
must be conceded that White Cloud has
done her duty nobly. We cannot tell the
result in the County, bnt hope it is all
right. We know it is. If the other pre-
cincts heve done their duty as ours has.
We have understood that the Democratic
candidates were promised from % to 80
votes here, and that they confidently pro-
claimed. in other parts of the County,
that White Cloud would give about tic
vote, or n small Democratic majority. If
their calculations upon carrying the Coun-
ty arc based upon such estimates, they
have poor show.
The majority hero cannot be called Pc
culiarly Republican success ; for it was
a union of Free State men against Kan
sas Democracy. But ono thing we were
glad to see-and that was a spirit of good
feeling prevailing among all parties, which
made things pass of pleasantly and good
humoredly.
We have no returns, OF the present
writing. from any other precinct or Coun-
ty. If we receive any before going to
press, We will insert them.

returns from Iowa Point, where the vote

DEATH OF HON. D. WALLAC

DEATH OF HON. D. WALLACE.
It is our melancholy duty to record, in
to-day's paper, the death of Hon. Daniel
Wallace, a former member Of Congress, from
the Pinckney Congressional District. He
died on Sunday evening, the 18th instant,
at his residence, near Jonesville, in Union
District As most of our readers know, he
had been great sufferer for more than two
years past, from dropsy Of the chest, and
paralysis; and, during ttis time, was often
considered as at the very gate of death; but
for few weeks preceding the very sudden
termination of his life, his family and nu-
merous friends were rejoiced. with the hope
of his speedy recovery and restoration to
health. On Sabbath evening he took tea
with the family, whose hopes were gaining
daily strength from the apparent signs of
his returning health, and upon leaving the
table, he fell lifeless corpse; ), thus in a
moment every hope was extinguished, and
joy and smiles gave place to sorrow and tears.
We regret our inability to pay anything
like a fitting tribute to the memory Of one
whose death will be sorely lamented through
out the State, and throughout the country,
wherever he was known. In his death, the
State has lost warm-hearted and devoted
son the South, bold and uncompromising
defender of her rights; his family a most
afectionate and loving husband and father.
Gen. Wallace was born in Laurens Dis
trict, and commenced bis life without money,
and with very few of the advantages it af-
fords. With.that indomitable energy and
will which characterized him throughout life,
he prepared himself to teach the English
branches, and remained in his native Dis
trict for several years, in the capacity Of a
teacher; neglecting no opportunity all the
while for improving and storing his own
mind with knowledge. He afterwards re-
moved to Greenville District, and married
Miss Davis. He merchandised for length
of time in Greenville, and afterwards re-
turned to the village of his native District,
where he continued the same line of busi-
ness. From Laurens G. H., he went to
Unionville, and remained a citizen Of Union
District to the day of his death. He was
successful as a merchant at this place, and
soon gained position and influence. In
1882 he was prominent as member of the
Notification Party of the District. A few
years after this, he was elected Commission
er in Equity, which Office he filled with
credit to himself and with great acceptable
ty to his fellow-citizens. About 1914 he
was elected to the Legislature, and again,
two years afterwards. As member Of this
body, be gave unmistakeable evidence Of
