guns dismounted and mines sprung inside Of

the defensive, and allow the Democrats to ex.
haust their fire in rain efforts to draw the Re-

House be organized, and then We will give you
battle on the open plain. :. -
The speeches this week hare been made en-
tirely BY the Leeomptonitea and the Anti.Le-
comptonites. In behalf of the latter, we have
bad speeches from Claik, Haakins, Hickman
aud Adratn,. On that Of the former, by Stewart
Of Maryland, Noel Of Missouri, Dan. Sickles Of
New York, and Ex-Gov. McRse of Mississippi,
who has not Jet 6nished. The Administration
speeches hare lacked point and yigor. Stew
arts speech was long, rambling, iucoherent
rigmsrola about. The everlasting rights Of the
nigger-breeding oligarcby. The only thing be
aaid Of any particle Of consequence was that
the Union Meetings at the North were good for
nothing; were bypocritical gatherings 60. up
BY persons engaged in toe southern trade, who
ut heart we're just as Anti-slasesy as those who
had the manliuess to- AroW- their sentiments
openly He commended that the Constitution
carried slavery into the Territories beyond
Congressional control-that such was the Dred
Scott decision, and such the belief Of the
National Democracy. y
Judge Kilgors of Indiana, inquired, if Mr.
Seward should be elected President Mr.
Bocock would consider that sufficient cause
for The dissolution Of the Union1 Stewart
replied that he would not answer unless Mr.
Sherman would submit to catechising. (Bocock
is Disunionist). Kilgo1e required, that sher-
man would define his position Oh the following
material questions If Bocock would, viz: Is
your candidate (Bocock) in:faror Of Congress
sional legislation for protecting slave property
in the Territoriest Is he In favor Of Popular
Sovereignty in them, and its right to admit or
exclude slavery therefrom1 If your candidate
will answer these questions, I pledge Jou ours
will also. Stewart declined to accept the pro-
position. Kugore drore him into close corner.
The Illinois Democrats have put no questions
to Bocock. They know he is against MI the
doctrines they preached on the stump, but
pazty with them is paramount to principles. !
charge that these fiye ulinois Democrats are
betraylng their constituents. Some of them
never could have been elected had the people Of
their District. lnown befo,c hand .he course
they would take when they got to Washington.
This Virgiuian, Docock, is slaye.code Le-
comntonite of tho b;tterest dsecr;,t;o, and ths
Illinois Democrats know it.
