At a barbecue given at Charcnton, parish OF St.

propounded to Mr.. Attorney General NOISE, by Col.
Apolrnrs OLIVER, and were thus answered
Col. Ofir;er-In the ey vent OF Mr.. lincoln'S election.
should the southern States secede?
Nh. 4MoiSe-In case of the election of Mr.. Lincoln,
my own opinion Is that the South ought 10 secede.
! would rather see the southern States cent into a
thousand fragments than that they >tlouti submit to
be ruled bv a Black Repu blican President.

The Humbux Of Protection.

We referred in a late issue to the Yancey-Breckin-
ridge claim for Congressional protection to slavery in
the Territories as a humbug and a deiusion. We
printed the vote of Browns resolution in the United
States Senate, to show that while the supporters OF
Breckenridge make a theoretical claim of protection,
they decline to meet the issue b. legislation. We
stated that the claim of protection, to constitute a
legitimate issue, must be founded upon an eriftng
unp protected condition of slave property in the Terri
tories. Otherwise the claim iaust be founded upon a
! prospective state of things, and that will constitute
an abstraction. Now, all the Breckenridge Senators
except thr#e, refused, by voting against the Brown
resolution, to admit any existing state OF facts that
4enlaniel the Intervention OF Congress for protection.
They are committee to the position that the refusal
Of slave property, is no; embraced III their theory Of
protection. This is not quite the worst. The actual
prohibition of slavery by the Kansas Legislature,
does not, in their view present a cause demanding
Intervention on the part of Congress. Well, thea,
in What case is Congress to interven ?
No supporter of Breckenridge condeeends to inform
the people. II it i, claimed that Congress should re-
wise, annul aud make vrtd unconstitutional legisla-
tion on the part of the Territories, ana it is claimed
that the Kansas legislation prob biting slavery is un-
constitutional, why refuse to PASS Browns amend
mont, and why fail to introduce a bill al the last SEES
sion of Congress afferding protection to slavery in
all The Territories of the United .States2 Nebraska
and Washington territories have failed to enact laws
TO protect slavery Why not introduce a bil in Con
gre>s providing that slavery shall be protected in
those Territories And yet the cry of protection is
rung in our ears from day to day by protective ora
tors and pa pers. We do not assert that they are in
sincere in the demand they make-the facts prove it.
Let our orators look to this matter and spike the
protection guns with the Brown amendnlent.-Bich-

Washington October 5.-Ihe news has just been re
ceived here that the Douglas state Committee have
formally adopted and ratified the Union electoral
ticket recently agreed upon in this city.
The Ticket has also been adopted and ratified by
the Tammany and Mozart Hall Democracy, by the
Breckenridge Volunteer Association, and by the Breck-
inridge party generally, with very few exceptions:
This consumates the long-desired coalition against
Lincoln in New York, and it is believed there and
