The humor aud wit of Judge Douglas is
as irresistible as his argument When the
train stopped at a little town in Vermont.
during his recent tour in that state, Judge
Douglas stepped upon rear platform, and
said few kind words to the crowd who
insisted upon seeing and hearing him. Some
enthusiastic Republican proposed three
cheers for Lincoln, which was heartily Civ
en-, when Judge Douglas smiliugly turned
to the crowd and said : Fellow Citizens

yon would never have known him as candi-

that he was proud of the reception whicl

alton that his reception here was very
ordinary affair, participated in by but a
few hundred ignorant Dutch and Irish who
were hired at the rate of twenty-five cents
per head for the occasion, we cannot but
come TO the conclusion that Stephens tour

acterizcd by any great amount of brillian-
