Douglas Letters at the South.

The foolish letters of S. A. Douglas bidding for
the Presidency does not seem to go down. The
Charleston, s. c.. Mercury introduces it as fol-
lows:
1T is, in fact, an official promulgation for
the benefit of the public at large and the DEM
ocracy in particular. 1t is of piece with the
shocking taste and singularly vulgar arrogance
that have MAJ ked the career of the Illinois SEN
ator for some time past. lie published and
franked an incredible number of his speech at
the last session, and his letter is now telegraph
of the remarkable qualities it displays oonstitu-
ting it something of nine-days wonder, rather
than from interest felt in his opinions, which
are we'll enough known already. His can't about
u slave code, is as impertinent as it is without
foundation in truth Judge Douglas either be-
lieves that equal protection for property in
slaves as for other property Is in fact slave
code, or he uses the slang phrase of an unscru-
pulous demagogue for Northern consumption
The Georgia Avalanche comes down on Doug
las as follows;
/" A few weeks since Judge Douglas perform
ed pilgrimage through the South. His march
was shorn of triumph. He could not be traced
by the ovations and demonstrations of u CRATE
full people, but the little apostate could be trail
ed from Washington City to the Memphis oy
the stencil and Islander which he left in his wake
for the purpose of suffocating the President and
destroying the Democratic Party. Having given
vent to his burning Indignation by disseminate
ing along his line of travel all sorts Of false
hoods against James Buchanan, it was hoped
Mr.. Douglas would remain quiet, at least for IA
season but the telegraph yesterday morning
announced that he is still laboring to destroy
the Democratic Party"

Kicking up a Muss.

The Rutland Courier which has of late drop
ed its abuse of Cow Boys and the like, proba-
bly, through fear of his head, wants to know
what the Freeman will say to the following,
which it processes to have copied from the Bur-
lington Times of Tuesday of last week:
The next President of the United States, in
the order of Providence, will be Statesman
who places white men on at least an equality
with " niggers,' and who is very likely to
maintain that white man is as good as a mig
GER 80 long as he behaves himself ("
In the first place, we would like to see the
rest of the article which, as the Times does not
exchange with us, we cannot do. In the next
place, we should liks to know what kind of
reflection the Crurier takes this to be on the
present President? Does not old Buck think
white folks as good as black? In the next place.
the editor of the Times is alone responsible for
its notions, and as we learn that his creditors
are offering to take so cts on the dollar for
what he owes there is good probability of his
being able to live ard answer for himself.

STATE CONVENTION. Next Tuesday July 18th,
is the day appointed for the meeting of the Re-
publican State Convention at Brattleboro. The
distance, and lack of the usual interest, will, we
fear, prevent general attendance from the Cen
trail and Northen portions of the State. Still,
for the honor of the thing, we hope to see
goodly number present. Everybody expects, of
course, that the whole of the present excellent
State Ticket will be re-nominated, and perhaps
by reclamation, and, further, that it will be
elected almost in the same manner. If we could
export twenty thousand Republican voters to
Indiana and Illinois, or import that number of
sham Democrats from those States, we might
then have some cause for interest in State pol
itics. But there is one suggestion worth the
making-that the presence of people at Con-
yention oftentimes has much to do with the
next years State Campaign. So we advise all
who can consistently, to pay the halflare, and

a County Convention in Orange County is in
