The Flowing Tide.

From all parts Of the country the political
tide is on the flow for DOUGLAS. Every
mail brings us encouraging indications Of
his growing strength, and Of the increasing
enthusiasm of the Democratic masses.
DOUGLAS and Popular Sovereignty" is the
watchword of the people everywhere.
The Democracy of Monroe county, Ohio,
have instructed their delegates to 60 for
DOUGLAS for President. Monroe county
gave Mr.. BUCHANAN, in 1856, eighteen hun
red majority. 1t is in the extreme eastern
part of the State, and borders on Virginia,
The Democracy of Sandusky and Starke
counties, Ohio; have instructed their dele
gates to the State Convention to appoint
DOUGLAS men to represent the State at
Charleston and half the counties in Indi-
ana have already done the same thing.
The Washington States says that it has
before it letter from one of the most dis
tinguished Statesmen of Georgia, who says
"The reaction in favor of DOUGLAS in this
State is rapidly on the increase. Some of
cur leading Democrats prefer him to all
other men,"
A gentleman writing to the Chicago
Times from Pella, Iowa, thus truthfully de-
scribes the feeling which is universal in the
West. He says: There is some doubt
among the people as to whether the Demo-
cratic party intend to carry out, in good
faith, the professions of the Cincinnati plat
form. The failure of Mr.. BUCHANAN to do
so, has had most disastrous effect. This
doubt injured US greatly in Iowa at the last
election. Convince us by the nomination at
Charleston of man so committed on this
point-that the Democratic party will be
true to the principle of Popular Sovereignty,
and this State will be Democratic. Such
an assurance is all that is needed. 1t will
be difficult, know, to satisfy the people in
this matter, after BUcHANAN's duplicity, and
therefore the greater the necessity of nomin-
ating the bold advocate of the peoples
rights, S. A. DOUGLAS"

during these colliding days, and while lamp
posts retain their immobility, we may not,
in this atter-of.course way, be held ac-
countable for every abrasive mark, which
the physiognomies of the rival Senatorial
candidates may reveal.
We wish to put lasting quietus upon
base slander which has obtained currency
and to the injury of one of.the most promi-
nent Senatorial aspirants. We allude to
the statement that THOMAS FOSTER, Medi-
cine Doctor, diploma unfortunately lost,)
and Minnesotian Editeur, position unfor-
tunately retained in becoming candidate
for the Senate, is merely acting the part of
a /" stoolpigeon or decoy duck "-as the
libellers variously phrase it-for WILLIAM
L. BANNING, M. B., (Minnesotian Banker.)
We happen to know the position DR.. FOSTER
occupies, and the part he intends to play.
The Doctor is our candidate. We brought
him out. He is our favorite nag, and we
bet our money on him. We may, therefore,
be fairly considered as qualified to speak
understandingly on this subject. And, so
speaking, we denounce the statement thus
recklessly made, to be as Infamous as it is
baseless. Just!
- TIMOTHY Nj. NEwsoN, Esq, Editor of
the Times, informed us yesterday, that his
collection of agricultural monstrosities was
not producing the effect he had anticipated
among the rural members, and he attributed
the failure to the fact that his agents had
overlooked, and neglected to secure, the
largest cabbage-head known to exist within
the State--and TIMOTHY looked admiringly
upon our new otter cap. We rendered
TIMOTHY the cap for more minute examina-
tion, but his gaze was quickly transferred
to those ambrosial locks" with which
Hon. JAMES III. BAKER became theoretically
familiar during the late campaign. And,
just as the hamor of the thing began to
penetrate the capM to which be evidently
referred, TIMOTHY bestowed smile, which
we thought slightly sardonic, and departed
We replaced our otter, and pronounced
TIMoTHY's chances much better than they
were the day before.

The result, it will be perceived, comes
within eight votes -thirds-the number
required for choice. The patriotic men
of the South, who ,uninfuenced by Executive
favors, devoted to the principles and
permanency of the Democratic party, seeing
this immense preponderance Of the popular
will, will readily acquiesce ard give Mr..
DOUGLAS the unanimous vote of the Conven-
tion. The nomination for President we
regard as already settled. The delegates
have simply to ratify what their constituents
have already determined upon. The only
real question will be the selection of Vice
President, who, of course, will be from the
South, and designated by the will of its
delegates.

Senatorial On Dts.
From our Daily of December Sth

From our Daily of December Sth
Meeting Governor RAMSEY, yesterday,
that gentleman approached US without the
utterance Of word, but with his left eye
full peeled-which was his quiet way OF
acknowledging the keenness of our own
perceptives in detecting the sly game he is
engaged in playing for the United States
Senatorship. As the Governor parted from
us-still without the utterance of word
his eye closed with sharp, merry twinkle,
which spoke, palmer than his tongue could,
81 am cunning fox, and you know it y
Of course be is; and, of course we do. But,
the Governors shrewd manner Of" acknowl-
edging the corn" and his genial style of
complimentiDg US, made up, together, one
of the most agreeable episodes Of our polit-
ical life and, as such, we mention it. Yet,
you'll notice, that no third person, standing
near, could have known that he had either
made the acknowledgment, or profered the
compliment. That was the cuteness of the
thing, and so Ramseyish.
We hasten to contradict report which
was in circulation yesterday, and generally
credited, that the Hon. MORTON S. WILK-
1NsoN and the Editor of this paper had been
engaged in sanguinary personal conflict,
and that the Honorable gentleman had
suffered in the encounter. We are aware
that appearances, on their face, furnished a
reasonable basis for the rumor; but we beg
to assure the public that the relations exist
ing between the gentleman thus disparaging-
| " referred to and ourself are Of the most
friendly character. We beg further, that,

A Big Gun from Ohio.

We have noticed the fact that several of
the counties of Ohio, have instructed their
delegates in favor of DOUGLAS, and adopted
the strongest Of Popular Sovereignty reso-
lutions. Indeed, among all the counties of
that State, which have yet given an express
sion of opinion on the Presidency, we do
not recollect single one as having failed to
speak for DOUGLAS.
The telegraphic dispatch of the 18th DC
tober, furnishes us with the action of anoth-
er, and one of the most prominent counties
of the State-that of Cuyahoga, in which
Cleveland is located. This city is the resi-
dence of many of the most prominent federal
oficeholders of the State. The United
States Marshal, who there is an officer with
immense patronage, the Postmaster, and
many other officials, combined, with all the
force of their patronage, to crush out an
expression of the sentiments of the unbought
Democracy. The result of their efforts is
shown by the character of the County Con
vention, which stood-DoCGLAs delegates,
1913; Administration, 10. JOHNSON, the
United States Marshal, was voted down in
his own ward. The3force Of the Democratic
sentiment was so strong, and the enthusiasm
for DOUGLAS so general and so contagious
that tie Government Collector PARKS, and
the United States Court Clerk, GREEN, were
impelled to join the masses of the party, and
60 for DOUGLAS.
And SO it goes, over the whole North.
The weekly pioneer and Democrat., 1859-12-09
The Books POsted-.LOOk at the Result

The Cincinnati Enquirer under the above
head, publishes review of the present state
of politics which is so just and sensible,
that we take the liberty of adopting and
endorsing it without alteration or amend
ment. The Enquirer says that since the
days of General JACKSON, no man in this
country has attained the popularity of STE
PHEN A. DOUGLAS. 1t is wide, deep, over
whelming, and pervades the public mind
North and South, East and West, without
regard to distinction of parties in time past
He is a bold, original, honest and straight
forward man of the people; and no combi-
nation of mere politicians, of6ceholders, or
expectants of Office, can Illustrate his triumph
at Charleston, and his even more glorious
triumph at the polls one year hence.
AS the people gather in primary conven-
tions, county after county, and State after
State, their distinct, earnest, unbought dec
larations that STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS is the
man of their choice-the man for the times
strike terror to the hearts of his personal
enemies and detractors. From what has
been, thus far, we may predict what will be
very soon. 1t is idle for any aspirant to
contest with Mr.. DOUGLAS the nomina-
ton of the Charleston Convention still
more idle for this, that, or the other would.
be leader, North, South or West, to say he
will not vote for Mr. DOUGLAS as the Demo-
cratic nominee. Every vote 80 lost is an
actual advantage to the party; and now, as
in the days of JACKSON, thousands and tens
of thousands of the Opposition will throng
into our ranks to fill the places deserted by
those who assume to rule US in the future,
as they have ruled US, and almost ruined US,
heretofore.
There are few men in the Southern
States who desire dissolution of the Union,
hoping thereby to attain an Importance
which they have not been able to attain by
reason of their fanaticism, in confederacy
of slaveholding and non-slaveholding States
These men have associated themselves with
the Democratic party of late years, only
because it is the predominant party of their
section, just as HALE, SUMNER, BANKS
HAMLIN, and other Disunionists have at
tached themselves to the Republican party
in New England. But the Democracy o.
the South are not in favor of disunion at all
they never have been, and unless goaded te
extremity, never will be. They have defended
the Democracy of the North from the imputa
tion of Abolitionism by our common enemies
South as we'll as North, times withou
number, as the Democracy of the Nortl
have defended them against all imputation
of disloyalty to the Constitution and tn
union of States. 1t would be as foolish ant
as wicked for Southern Democrat now t,
adopt the ISLANDERS Of Southern Oppositionist
against Mr.. DOUGLAS and his friends, as 10
a Northern Democrat to befoul bis mout
with the lies, the trash and the slang of tn
Abolitionists. There never has been an,
lack of common sense in the Democrat
party, South or North and those VIII
count upon the triumph of fanaticism a
Charleston whether fanaticism of the Sout
or of the North-are doomed to ute
disappointment.
