Fooled in their intlmous scheme to
swindlc the People out of the election
Of President: the Breckenridge lead
ers now-as we all prcdictcd-again
set up the DISUNION HOWL.
Ever since Gen. JACKs0N's day. the
leading South Carolinians have advo-
Gated secession and Slave Confede-
rary, and have had sympathizers in
other States. Every issue possible TO
make an excitement about, they raved.
The Tariff in 1882, Texas, the Aboli-
tion Of the Slave-Trade and the Ad-
mission of California as a Free State,
were ali 'intolerablc outragcs" to the
Nullifers. The peaceful and Consti-
tutional election of Il President who
is hostile to Slavery Extension, is a
new chance for agitation, and South
Carolina is again fomenting treason
able designs, and proposing overt
acts which would condemn a Northern
man TO the gallows at once. But in
Sou,hcrncrs it is tolerated and even
applauded by proiessed Democrats.
Let them agitate as they please
the People have elected LINCOLN,
PRESIDENT, and will sustain him.
The truly Conservative and National
men Of all sections will calmly await
the issue the fanatics and traitors are
trying TO precipitate in hot haste.
SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Nov. l2.-NO:hing
will be known in regard to Cabinet ap-
pontments for many weeks, aud all specu-
laiions in the interval will be wholly un-
authorized.
The news from the South produces no
percep,ible effect here, and fails to induce
the least change in Mr.. Lincoln's determi-
nation TO withhold all intimatioDs as TO his
policy.
The hunters for ofice have not as yet
assent bled here in great force, but brisk
business is done with letters.

Seward and Webster.

The sympathy which the Democrats are
now pouring out upon Mr.. Seward revives
the recollcctions OF the Scott campaign, when
the same class of men lavished their compl-
ments upon Mr. Webster Mr.. Webster,
all his life, had been villified by them, and
so has Mr.. Seward, yet the moment Gener-
al Scott was nominated they lowered around
him with honeyed phrases, and even kept in
his train until he died They then walled
vchemently and conspicuously at the sepul-
chre and were prolific in dirges and eulo-
gums. So they now fill the air with lamen-
tations over the defeat Of Mr.. Seward The
vile traitor" the arch demagogue," the
author of the irreprcssible conflict" the in
stigator of John Brown, the man who set
the fuse on fire and then ran away to Egypt
to wait the explosion, had all at once in their
eyes become paragon of craftsmanship and
ability, the best beloved of genius, the hope
of the nation, the light of their life, and the
joy Of their understanding. Poor fellows |!
they shook their dice and gambled for votes
upon the coffin of Webster, but they cannot
do it in the face of Seward.

Democratic Consistency.

1t has been really amusing to see how soon
after the nomination of Honest Old ABB"
the Democracy learned the true worth Of that
great Statesman, WM. II. SEWARD. Previous
to this event no epithet was to opprohrious,
no calumny too vile, to be applied to him.
They desired the nomination of Mr.. SEWARD
at Chicago, for the reason that thereby their
chances for success would be enhanced in
the doubtful States, and because the delegates
to that Convention saw this too, and with all
due respect for the distinguished Statesman,
thought it best to take another man, De-
mocracy accuses Republicans Of being un-
grateful, and endeavors to produce detection
among our ranks by constantly parading his
peculiar fitness for the Presidency, and 9TH

mixed up with an entirely unnecessary
amount of hypocritical canting.
In pursuing this course of action they must
acknowledge that their former course was in
direct contradiction of their true sentiments,
or that at present they are acting a deliberate
lie for now they gorify what they formerly
denounced; the life which they formerly

public acts which they denounced as base
and vllainous, they now laud and flatter, and
say that he is an honest, able, and conserva-
tive man. What consistency. This sudden

of action of Mr. SEWARD, for he has not
swerved from his former positions hairs
breadth. But they are having their trouble
for Their pains. Ardently as many may have
desired the nomination of Mr.. s. and disap-
pointed as many undoubtedly were in the
final result, the short time that has elapsed

unite all sections in unanimity of action, and
lead the Republican army up to the final
charge next November, with vigor and an
efficiency that will utterly rout the Demora-
cy from the position they now hold in the
executive department of government, and
which they have forfeited all claim to by a
course of action that has no parallel for fraud,
corruption and reckless squandering of the
public funds
