omit to vcx the Charleston Convention with his
claims on the Presidency, says:
1t is all yery well for the friends Of Douglas 10
throw the tub Of the Senatorship to the Ken
lucky whale. supporting il with hoa'ed sugses-
sions of prelern,ent in The future by '*sPoutane-

SenatorsLp, and. secondly, Of dlsarming oppo-
word for il, he has no thought Of really girins

Of it. The Seuatorship, ii he gets it, will not

Besides, il Mr. Breckinridge were disposed u
