Greeley on the Candidates.

The following is the closing paragraph Of q
speech delivered by Horace Greeley before
the Young Mems Republican Union Of New
York, on the ed ult;
l knew Abraham Lincoln in Congress
eleven years ago, when he was one of the
Youngest members, yet one ofthe most respect
ed. He came from section where there
were very few Wings. | never heard any
man impeach his integrity, and never until
now heard any man doubt his ability. tell
YOU, the man who stumps State with Steph-
en- A. Douglas, and meets him, day after
day, before the people has got to be no fool
Many man will make better first speech
than Douglas, but giving, back and forward
he is very sharp Now, the man who went
through the State, speaking against Stephen A.
Douglas, and was not beaten, as no man says
he was, is not common man for no COM
mon man win answer for that work; and at
the end of that campaign Mr.. Lincoln came
out with 1000 majority on the popular vote,
although Mr. Buchanan had beaten FIRE.
mont 5000, and the general feeling outside
of the State was that Douglas had better be
elected. Mr.. Crittenden wrote letter which
elected Douglas; he said that it was better
that he should be elected, and there were So
900 Americans there; don't believe we
have got another man living who would have
fought through that campaign so effectively
and at the same time so goodnaturcdly as he
did Mr.. Trumbull would have begun lit
tie ranker, but one or the other would soon
have been knocked off the platform Mr..
Lincoln went through with perfect good ma
ture and entire suavity, and beat Stephen A..
Douglas, it being the first time any man on
our side ever carried that State. believe
there is good time coming right off now
believe that he will get 5 900 against Doug
las and $4,000 against any other man. Right
there feel very sure The Democrats in
Illinois won't ask you to count the vote
against anybody but Douglas; they will give
it up. l know Mr.. Hamlin, our candidate
for Vice President He is a very unassum-
ing, mld-mannered man, but very able
man, a man of few words He was Free
Soil Democrat till 1854, voting with us on
Slavery questions and with the Democratic
party on all other questions. They could
not turn him out of the party, because he
voted with them on all but Slavery questions
so he was Chairman of the Committee on
Commerce up to the time they made tie Gin
cinnati Platform and nominated James Bu-
chanan. He. then came out and said, you
put me in as Democrat" and have ceased
to "be Democrat: am going with the Re-
publicans." He resigned his seat in Con-
gress, and went to Maine, and was elected
Governor by Ii, 1000 majority in State which
went against us the year before. Both Of
these men have pollcd the highest vote ever
polled in their several States, and they will
Doll higher next fall. Loud applause
have grown old, and don't believe now that
a thing is going to be because l think It
ought 20 be; but feel sure, as every man
in Chicago felt when the nomination was
made, that the 4th of March will see Lincoln
and Hamlin inauguratcd as your President
and Vice-President.

WENDELL PHILLIPS ON THE DENocRACY.--
In his recent speech at New York Mr.. Phil
lips said that everything was breaking, and
at last the great Democratic party had broken
too. [Applause.] She found out that Sla-
very had right everywhere She hated the
Republican motto, /" Freedom national, Sla-
very sectional" She had the motto, "Sla-
very everywhere" and the counterpart was,
" Democratic party nowhere" Laughter
and applause. 1t reminded him of the story
told by the Eastern traveller of bear in North
ern Asia, who went into the wopan's hut,
where she had just taken off the boiling kit
tie, and smelling around with his nose, he
touched it to the hot iron. Indignant at the
offence offered to his nervous system, the bear
clasped the kettle. The more he claspcd il
the more it burned him, but the more it burn
ed him the more he yelled and the tighter he
Rugged it; and SO he died. Now the more
the Democratic party clasped Slavery the
more Slavery ruined the Democratic party,
and the more it ruined it, the more it yelled,
and the tighter it clasped it in its embrace. /;
and it would die with the hot doctrine in its
arms. [Great laughter and applausel

MAGNANIMIrY OF Mr.. SEwARD.-Mr. Lin
coin was nominated for President on Friday,
the 18th inst. On the same day, Mr.. Sew
ard, his chief competitor, wrote the following
editorial with his own hand for the Auburn
Daily Adrertiser
1--WE place the names Of Lincoln and Ham
lin at the head of our columns, with pride
and satisfaction. No truer exposition Of the
Republican creed could be given, than the
platform adopted by the Convention contains.
No truer or firmer defenders of the Republi.
can faith could have been found in the Union,
than the distinguished and esteemed citizens
on whom the honors Of the nomination have
fallen. Their election, we trust, by deci-
sve majority, will restore the Government Of
the United States to its constitutional and
ancient course. Let the watohword of the
Republican Party, then, be Union and Lib
erty, and onward to Victory"

The State and Congressional Ticket.

The Republican State and Congressional
Conventions, held at Iowa City last week,
passed off with that entire harmony and good
feeling so characteristic Of all Republican
gathering that have been held the past year.
Under the editorial head will be found the
names of the nominees. These gentlemen
are not unknown to the people of this State,
all but one of them having served the State
in the respective capacities for which they are
again brought forward.
Their unanimous denomination is the best
voucher that could be had for the fidelity
and zeal they have exhibited in discharging
the duties of their Offices and as far as we
can learn, no charge can be brought against
any one Of them of remissness of duty, in
any case whatever. Mr. SELLS, the nominee
for Secretary of State, has served the people
in this capacity for the last four years, and
having proved himself SO acceptable an off,
Ger, it was unanimously agreed that he should
fill the Office, the duties of which he is so Pc
culiarly fitted to perform, for two years more.
Mr. NoUEsE, the candidate for Attorney
General is the only new man on the ticket,
the present incumbent declining re-nomina-
ton Mr. N. is talented lawyer, an
effective speaker and possessed of that tire
less energy which is the best guarantee of the
faithful discharge of duties. Mr.. VANDEvER,
the able and popular Member of Congress
from this District was re-nominated on the
first ballot, receiving 2O3 votes out of 292.-
This was nomination eminently fit to be
made He has attended to the discharge of
his duties in a manner peculiarly acceptable
to his constituents, and has shown by his
past course that he is possessed of that arti-
Gle so necessary to the faithful discharge of
the duties of that Office, viz, back bone.
No one questions but that each and every
one of these gentlemen will be elected by
handsome majorities.

When We think how important the mission
of the physician is,-how much the commu.
nifty depends upon the skill and judgment Of
those who ought to be the dispensers OF
inducing rrmcdies,-ho dear is every
mans life,-it would seem that common be-
nevolence, christian charity, and individual
knowledge, would induce those who have as,
sumed the responsibilities Of the physician, to
pause, lay aside their prejudices, and examine
the claims of Eclecticism upon the attention Of
all who prescribe for the sick. Eclecticism
asks only trial, fair and judicious; and il II
cannot stand the tests Of examination and ap'
plication, let it give place to some other more
correct system. Here is a system of practice
which is founded on reason and the highest
requirements of other systems; system
which carefully examines every new princi.
pie, tests every new remedy, adapts the de.
monstrative facts and principles of all systems,
and presents much to the physician unknown
to other schools, which, in short, courts in.
vestigation, which demonstrates its correct,
ness by its successful results and yet many
practitioners turn deaf car to its merits. II
would seem that some physicians do not want
to know the best means of curing disease
But young men, who have regulations to
gain, are beginning to learn its worth, and we
have an abiding faith that all the sects must
soon give way to the onward march of this
republican and rational system Of medicine.
