POLITICAL ITEMS.


tiser, the Doylestown Democratic Standard
the Bloomsbury Star, the Lock Haven Dem
ocrat, and the Sullivan Democrat.
The Abingdon (Fa) Democrat says that OF
81 Democratic papers in that State which
have defined their position in the coming con-
test, 26 are for Breckiuridge aud Lane, and
six are FOR Douglas and johnson.
STARK CouSrY-The Stark County (o.l
Democrat, which has the Breckenridge ii cket
at the head of its columns, says: 1t is q
source of qualification TO know that of the TED
members of the Stark County Democratic
Central Committee, in session last SATURDAY.
six of them were in favor of US hosting Breck-
inridge and Lane, three opposed, and one re
fused to give an expression. Each one Of
these gentlemen represents township Of the
county.
In New jersey, there are in the entire State
twenty-five journals for the Republicans,
against fourteen for both wings of the Demo
craey; and two only, of no particular inhu-
ence, for Bell and Everett. These, of
course, are simply acting in the interest of
Douglas, and had better declare for him at
once.
Tue Tribune estimates the Republican gain
in the city of New York, over 1856, at no less
than 10000, when Fremont had 10000 over
Buchanan.
! A comet with two tails is tightly visible in
the Northwest. 1t is symbolic of the Demo
cratic party, the Southern tail being longer
than the other.
The Buffalo Commercial gives list OF eigh-
teen Democratic papers in New York, which
support Breckenridge and Lane. 1t also
thinks the list will very shortly be increased
by other additions. The list includes some
of the ablest Democratic papers in the State.
Yet the Douglas men talk of carrying New
Y ork.
J "IN a FIx."-A Virginia exchange says
There are about forty Thousand Democrats i'll
the State of Firginia-on the icnce-at sea-
in the woods-wild, or whatever else you
please to term the condition of not being able
to discern the National Democratic party from
the Democratic National party
The Indiana Post, German paper publish
ed at Lafayette heretofore old line, and one of
the ablest in the State, has also run up the
names of Lincoln and IIamlin. The German
vote of Indiana is sure for the Republican tick
ct. They have been deceived long enough by
the spurious Democracy.
Judge Wilton. DR. Cross and Almon AK
tell, who among the most prominent Dem
ocrais i'll Lorain county, are strong Brcckin-
ridge men, aul so are onc-half Of their fellow
Democrats Of Amherst township in that oun-
ty. That township has the most efficient Dem
ocratic organization in that county and is the,
banner township Of that party.
The Savannah News gives the names and po-
litics of the various papers in Georgia, sum-
ming up follows: For Breckinr;dge and
Lane %; for Bell and Everett, l3; for Doug
las and johnson, 2. Not declared, 90. OF
which probably for breckenridge and Lane, {:
for Bell and Everett, 3; independent s; doubt
full %
Gerritt Smith, of New York, was nomnat-
ed for President, by an Anti-Slavery Conven-
tion held few weeks since, at Boston. There
Gre now half dozen Presidential candidates
in the feld-Bel, Lincoln, Houston, Douglas,
Breckenridge and Smith
The Pomeroy (V'a.) Argus thinks that IF
either one Of the Democratic candidates has
half the strength in the opposite section that
his friends confidently claim for him, the inov-
liable consequence must be that Lincoln
will carry every Northern and Bell every
Southern State The Argus in about right
there.
/ The \. Y. Journal of Commerce SAYS that
voting for Douglas is a downright waste of
ammunition" The Journal supports Breckin-
ridge avowedy because he stands better
chance of election than Douglas.
/ A STRONG SMELL.-Hon. Bailie Peyton. Of
Tennessee, who spoke at bell and Everett
ratification meeting few day ago, said that
the corruption of the Administration at Wash
ington is so great that ''the man in the moon
has to hold his nose as he passes over that
city"
The Jackson County Qnd.) Union week be-
! fore last hoisted the Douglas flag. Last week
it hauled it down, with the following explana-
ton: During our absence last week the names
of Douglas and johnson were hoisted, contra
ry to our wishes. We have taken them down,
and do not intend to hoist them until we can
make up our mind to vote for them, which we
do not now feel like doing"
The Cincinnati Times says that as far as If
has observed. there are six Democratic papers
in Indiana that support Breckenridge and
Lane. So much for the claim that every
| Democratic paper in that State supports
Douglas.
The Cleveland Plain Dealer says that Ere
mont in 1856, chad an old Federal for an op
ponent whose heart was as cold as hail stone,
aud who personally inspired no Enthusiasm
among the people in his behalf. He was
dead weight to the party then as he is u dead
dog to the party now
|. L. G. Sanford, a Fillmore elector in 1886.
and DIR. w. W. Jenkins, chairman of the
| County Convention of Belmont county O., that
organized the Union party there, have come
out for the Republican ticket.
The Day Book gives the following account
of what it terms unexpected enthusiasm for
Brecllinridg and Lane in New York city
I'VE hear from all quarters that the primary
meetings in the different wards, last evening,
gave most cheering ass urances of the popular
ity of Breckenridge and Lane. In the Nine
teenth Ward not less than two hundred names
were enrolled and the greatest enthusiasm pre-
vailed. Roll on the ball"
