Progress OF the Douglas BAN.

The popular current which is bearing
Senator Douglas to the White House,
and which viii certainly elect him Pres
1ent, if he lives, is rushing on with ac-
celebrated force. Nothing can stop it,
The Brownsville Times, Fayette County,
Pennsylvania, and the Western Press, in
Mercer County, Penn, have lately rails
ed his flag; so has the Baltimore Dispatch.
There are a far greater number of Dem
ocratic papers throughout the Union with
the name Of Stephen A. Douglas at their
head for the Presidency than for alb other
candidates, Of bothparties combined. To
those who sull doubt his nomination, we
can only say. Beware of the Locomo-
tive when the bell rings!"
In the South he is gaining every day.
A writer in the Atlanta (Ga)Intelligen-
Ger. Of the 9th ult., dominates Stephen.
A.. Douglas for the Presidency, and Rob-
ert Toombs for the Vice Presidency. He
denies the right Of Congress to protect
slavery IN the Territories, and expresses
his concurrence in Douglas popular SOW
ereignty'' views, maintaining that he is
right in every particular.
The "West Tennessee Whig,'' pub
lished at Bolivar, in its issue of the 18Th
says:
"Eyery one who viii read Judge Pear
sons letter, which appears in to-day pa
per, win irresistibly be driven to the con-
clusion thai Stephen A. Douglas, of IL
tinois, is the soundest man. nationally,
now living. Standing, as he does, prom
nenly between the extremes North and
South, be is certainly the most available
man in the Democratic party of the coun-
try for the race Of 1860. Tennessee
honors him, and the United States will
honor him"

How they Conduct Courts in Utah.

According TO letters from Utah, the
United States Courts are mere ~mockeries
of justice. Mormon Juries bully The
Judge on the bench, and do not scruple to
bring a verdict fat against the evidence.
Mormon witnesses snap their fingers at
the Court, refuse to testify, and walk of.
Mormon Sherifs tear up processes against
their friends. A witness against a Nor
mon dare not show himself in Court. A
plaintiff against a Mormon is in danger
of his life. One was murdered in his bed,
lately, by the Mormon against whom he
had brought suit. A defendant was shot
down at the court house door by his Nor
mon prosecutor. The perpetrators Of both
murders still walk the streets untouched.
And yet we have an army in Utah, per-
fecllyable and willing to enforce law and
maintain order in the Territory.

Arrangements have been made with
many Of the popular authors already con-

amount of talent than has ever before
been enlisted by any other Periodical in
the country.
As heretofore, the pages Of the Knick-
erbocker will be devoted TO the c~ultlva.
ton of literature, art and humor. Leav-
ing out the discussion of vexed political
and polemical questions, it will be the
aim of the editors to procure for the
body Of the Magazine the most brilliant
articles upon the topics of the day; and
the large resources at their command will
enable them to make the Knickerbocker
unsurpassed in excellence and variety of
matter. Mr. Clark's time being now be-
slowed mainly upon the "Edito1' S Table,
the inimitable feature of the Knicker-
booker, he will labor to make it the most
delightful repository of wit, humor, and
Of literary gems in the English language.

Who was Captain Conspirator Brown ?
A cotemporary makes this response: He
is the son of q wealthy farmer of Hud-
SOD, Portage county, Ohio, by the name
Of Owen Brown, or Squire Brown as
he was generally called. John Brown was
born in Litchfeld county, Connecticut, but
resided FOR more than thirty years in Hud-
son, Ohio, on a dairy farm, but subse-
quietly embarked in wool growing, in
which business he was quite successful,
until he accompanied a very large venture
of the finest quality Of that article to
England. This speculation resulted in a
~rainous loss, and from that time to this,
he has been more or less absorbed in the
furIherance Of Abolition views, on which
subject he was a complete fanatic.

A. Douglas. AT the close of his speech
the meeting adopted the following reso-

/. Resolved, That we regard the poll
cy of popular sovereignty, as advocated
by Stephen A. Douglas, to be the only
constitutional and safe exposition of the
question of slavery as connected with
the Territories, and that we earnestly
~deprecate the agitation in Congress at all
of this question; and especially the at
tempt to provide a slave code by Con-
gress would we regard as the assertion of
a power which does not exist under the
Constitution, and which, if it did exist
and could be exercised, would result in
the ultimate ruin Of the interests of
Shareholders.
