WEST PoIkr, Aug. l, 1860.
AIEssRs. EpIroRs: About week since mo-
tioe Was given in this place that the "wag-
gish Chaplsin," II. @. Dean, would address
the people Of West Point on Tuesday 1t 2
O'Clock p. m. No effort Was spared to get
out . crowd. A pole was raised, on tho top
Of which 90 enormous Gag, aboat by 8,
Hoased to the breeze. The name Of Stephen
A. Douglas was painted In glowing letters on
the trent of doggsry,-shs Bazaar,--a
most appropriate place, certainly.
About 3 p. m. tho expoundsr Of Squattsf
Sovereignty made his appearance, and pro-
oeeded directly to the old court house, whore
the enormous crowd OF about $50 hsd a.
sembled.
He commenced his exercises BY stating
that be took different course from most
politicians; that he pledged himself to state
nothing but facts, and challenged investiga-
ton, etc.; that be had spoken on last Monday
night to $500 people at Keokuk, and not .
man in that CITY dared 70 deny the great ma
tionAl truths which he sxpoundsd.
Now sir, during speech Of about three
hours, | candidly declare never heard its
equal for vulgarity, faisehood and black
guardism, and ms for grimaees, NO Orang-
Outang could excel him.
He first declared that scarcely . prayer
was offered up but that was for the over
throw Of our Government. That the N. Y.
Tribune was tho Republican Bible. That to
hear Republicans talk you would think that
the four millions Of slaves were angels Of she
pursst and highest grade, but that they were
= long Skinned, thick Tipped, thick skulied
lot Of niggers, snd be challenged the world
to produce ~ instance where 90 many de-
graded beings we're raised to such standard
Of civilization and Christianity. "And nov, y
says the Reverend, 81 ask, why il I'll this
ID hunbug about Slavery" He charged
the Republican party with the invasion Of
Brown into Virginia that the 6rss clause in
the Republican platform WAS unoonssitution-
al. He charged the party with trying TO
L K N 3
destroy the Government which was purchased
BY the blood Of the Revolutionary fathers.
He spoke Of the visdom and statssm snshir
Of tho bred Scott decision, and challenged
any one present to show whore tho Adninis-
tration Of James Buchanan had chsstsd them
out Of farthing.
| In speaking Of Mr.. Lincoln, no Language
VAS too strong for him TO use in villifyinl
and dsfaniDg his sposlsss character, and il
closing be declared thst il Lincoln should b.
elected the Union would be dissolved % sure
- fate.
Now this God-forsaksn villain, under
stand, preached in the NJ. e. Charch 81 Fort
Madison, on last Sabbath. Alas what 4
specimen Of humanity to teach ths people
morale! JONES.

"a Hence, when the Gase City quotes
Senator Douglas 40 saying that "the owner
OF slave has the same right to emigrate to
. Territory, and carry his s.avs property
scith him, rs the owner OF any other species
OF property has to move there and carry
his property with him." il establishes no.
thing against Mr.. Douglas or the statement
which ii quotes from the journal. Mr..
Douglas, in the same speech from which she
Gate quotes, and in the same connection,
stated expressly that the slaveholder, when
he took his property into the Territories,
held 1t there subject to the local laws--thot
stDas dependent for protection upon the
same system Of tegistotion az other prope, II.
30 Mr.. Douglas might say that the slave
owner has right to come to Iowa with his
slave property and hold it subject to the
laws OF the State. Who would deny his
right TO do SOP And yet Who by Affirming
such right, could be Justly charged with
holding that the Constitution carries Slavery
into the State OF Iowa, or that il guarantees
TO slave property the right Of protection here.
--lkeokuk Journal.
Does the Journal wish to make out that
Douglas is a fool, in order TO avoid the gen.
eral impression OF his knavery2 Can it find
no better "dodge" to effect Douglass escape
from his plain and frank admission that
slaves stood on the same footing - horses
in the Territories, under the Constitution Of
the United States, than to assert that be
might say 30 with truth in reference to
lows? Does the Journal 90 far nnderrate
the intelligence OF the public that it hopes
to make ito readers swallow such an absurdi-
TYP What local laws Of Iowa treat slaves
~ property and on the same footing with
horses? Where 10 there even the shadow Of
prstenes to be found for the assertion that
slave owners may bring their slaves 70 Iowa
and hold them - property?
But soch foolery 10 precluded BY the yer,
statement which We have three several times
qsotsd from Douglass speech, and ~ often,
in vain, dsrsd the Journal to publish. Mr..
Doaglss says that he agrees with Senator
Brown Of Miss., that under the Consultation
shareholders may emigrate to the Territories
and carry their slaves with them and hold
them there just - any 9th er property 10 held.
Now Senator Brown don't hold that undsr
The Constitution shareholders may emigrate
% the State Of Iowa and carry their slaves
with fhsD and hold them - property here.
Therefore Il Vas not 10 that sense nor in that
position that Douglas agreed with Brown,
bat il uss In that other position asserted BY
the Eepssms Court and endorsed officially by
n~>>sA>rk Runha nan that thu Hor.t,.nt;on
establishes Slavery In the Territories.

For the Gate City:



MxssHs. EpIroRs In late number OF the
Des Moines Journa! notice short sketch
OF the life and public services of John W.
Ellis, Esq, present Douglas-Johnson candi-
date for State Treasurer. In that sketch it
10 intimated that this man Ellis has always
been 4 reliable Democrat. In this locality it
is pretty generally believed that Ellis is him
self the author OF this sketch. But |, for
one, can hardly believe it; for while admit
the statement of his having "carried out
heavy surveying contracts in Wisconsin and
Iowa." at the expense of the public, am
not willing to believe that be would deny be-
ing Wing.
Like LIE Grand Byington, Henry CLAY
Dean, Lincoln Clark, and most OF the Dem
ooratic leadersof the present day, Mr.. Ellis
was himself Wing, not many years ago.
And since nearly oil the prominent men of
the Locofoco party in Iowa are renegade
Wings, don't think this Deputy Surveyor
GENERAL Ellis would be ashamed OF his
ansecedents and thus publicly deny his form
or position.
"Upon the organisation OF Davis county,"
says the historian, "Mr. Ellis was elected
County Surveyor, and continued in that
of6oe for eight years." am forced to admit
that Surveyor Gsnsrot CD Ellis has subsiss-
Cd on Government pap, and other piokiDgs
from the public, since his residence In Iowa !;
but at the organisation Of Davis county, and
for several years thereafter, was . citizen
Of that county, and know that instead Of
being elected, Mr.. General Ellis was defeat
cd for the ofios Of County Surveyor, al-
though his party had majority Of voters ss
that time He has been candidate in that
county great many times since, and, al
though generally elected, invariably ran be-
hind the Democratic ticket.
As to his residence at IT. Madison, can
say nothing but he WAS at one time agent
and officer Of the Fl. Madison aud Bloomfield
Railroad Company, and it has been rumored
that from the pickings and emoluments OF
that dsfunet Company be managed 10 save
enough ready cash COLLECTED from his con-
6ding neighbors) to establish IL aving ma
chine, ycleped bank!
HE biographer says be 10 intimately ac-
quainted with the interest OF the people.
suppose this 10 true; for . Ave per cent. .
month shaving shop, where gold and silver
10 sold to tar payers At from Eve to six per
cent. premium, could not fail to acquaint him
with the istersst, to say nothing of the prin.
ciple! OF course the intsrsst OF the people
at the rate OF Eve per cont. per month ID
what be wants, and this 10 the kind OF inter
est he 10 aequainted with.
Unless | am greatly mistaken, instead Of
Davis county giving this General 1000 ma
jority in November, he win fall behind
Augustus Cwsar's majority OF last year,
which was triHe over 400.

its influence, bolts and bars cannot limit its

The NEw YoAK SuEpAT LAW Justice
Cornwell, one Of the police magistrates OF
Brooklyn, las decided that the law against
Sunday trading, which provides for the sez-
ure of all merchandise offered for sale on that
day, is imperative, because il does not spe-
city whether only the single article sold, or
all the goods contained in tho shop shall be
seized. lie holds that the statute seeks to
deprive person of his property for an act
not criminal in itself, and by many not
deemed to involve even moral guilt.
THE CATHOLICS OF New YORK, respond
ing to the appeal recently made by the Most
Rev. Archbishop Hughes, are promptly com.
ing up with their contributions. In the
Cathedral the contributions last Sunday had
reached the sum of $4,000, and one gentle
man, German, handed the Archbishop his
own contribution, amounting to 5000.
The CIRCULATION or THE BIBLE is in
creasing in Turkey, and converted Turks
preach the gospel in Constantinople and if
the Turkish government were strong enough
to she that its own odicts were respected, the
spread of Christianity would be great in that
country. But the fanaticism of the Turks
shows itself wherever it can.
A NOTICE has been published by the Arch
bishop Of New York, warning the public
against unknown persons who arc going
around soliciting contributions for the Pope.
He says those who contribute aid for the
Pope do it voluntarily, and suggests that per-
sons to whom these imposters apply should
have them arrested and punished.
