DOUGLAS IN THE SoUTH.-The news by the
Pony confirms the report that Alabama and
Arkansas have gone against the Breckinr sc
party. 1t also brings intelligence that Sena-
tor Hunter, of Virginia, is stumping that
State for Douglas. This looks very much
like Douglas having "uo chance in the South. v
Not only have Arkansas and Alabama gone
against the Breckinrdge ticket, but Missouri
and Kentucky also Here are four Southern
states " hlch have already condemned him.
And yet the Secession sheets are continually
crying that Breckenridge is going to sweep
the entire South. If he is not the worst
beaten man that ever appealed to the suffra
ges of the Southern people, there is no reli-
unce in the signs of the times.

MARYsvILLE, Sept. 12.h, 1860.
Letter from Browns Valley.

BRowN's VALLEY, Sept llth.
EDToR DEMooRAT:-On Saturday last
grand council of the Boilers was held at this
place, for the purpose of nominating a candi-
date for Supervisor of the Second District
Nominate did say? No, it was only to 90
through the farce of confirming the selection
Of the man, dictated by Magruder Wicker
sham IL Co. of the Court House Clique, who
are deeply interested in working various
bills through the Board. Oh what a gather
ing it was Thirteen delegates were present
out Of thrty-niue, and several sympathzing
Diggers with thei; squaws, who appeared to
manifest much interest in the result of their
deliberations.
The entire Convention have not paid into
our County Treasury 5000 in ten years.
Was II the good of the County that made
them so patriotic, or was it to assist the
leeches with which the country has been
cursed for years back and to secure some
small pckings for themselves or friends
Many think there is Il dividing game on hand
1t was apparent at the Conventin that met
in your city, who was to be the candidate
The Magruder clique ruling there with sue
cess, deferred the tax payers from going to
Browns Valley to enact the second farce
Their only hope was that convention would
be called, by electing delegates with refer
ence solely to the selection of a suitable per-
son for Supervisor. No, that would not do.
The Court House Clique would have been
beaten, it is with them rule or ruin
The time has come when over-burthened
Taxpayers will not support the nominees of
irresponsible gatherings like that which met
at Browns Valley. The imposition has been
| practced until the county is already near
S100,0 900 in debt. If we are ever to have
any reform, let our votes be cast only for men
of known business qualifications, men who
are not likely to be interested in Hospital
contracts, or supplies; men who are not in
terested in the advancement of any particu-
lar bridge or ferry right Let us vote for
some man who has permanent interest in
the welfare of the county then all will be
well. TAXPAYER

Douglas Ahead!l

The prospects for the election Of Douglas
are hattering in the extreme. 1t was sup
posed 10y the Breckenridge crowd that Fer
naudo Wood would 90 again t him in New
York, and lead away from him the thirty or
forty thousand votes which he can certainly
command. Instead Of this Fernando Wood
advises all his friends to sustain the Douglas
electoral ticket The Union party in New
York will 20 for him, too, rather than see
Lincoln carry the State, and have already
signiued their intention to vote for him.
New York may therefore be counted AS GER
tain for the Champion Of Popular Sovereign
ty Illinois he has never failed to carry
when he tried. Pennsylvania may not be
certain for him, hut it is lost to Breckin-
ridge The tide is running strong for Doug
las in Indiana and in all the western States.
In the South, where it was pretended he
could not raise a corporal's guard, his stand
ard is nyiug, upborne from every stump and
from many an editorial tripod by stout
hearts and hands, and the people are rallying
around it. Breckenridge has already lost his
own State, Kentucky, and has lost Missouri,
Arkansas and Alabama on the test votes that
have been made in the elections just passed
The signs of the times are ominous for the
Disunion candidate, and the day of election
in November will tell tale to freeze his
blood and make each particular hair stand on
end, like quills of the fretful porcupiue.
When such men as Senator Hunter, ofNir
ginia, and GOV. Letcher, the present Chief
Magistrate of that State, have declared fol
Douglas, it is in vain to say that he has nc
strength in Virginia. In Alabama he has the
gallant Forsyth and host of other able men
in Georgia Gov Wright and the eloquent
! Alexander II. Stephens in Louisiana, the
chivalrc Soule, Wyckliffe and men of the
Ike stamp in Arkansas, the brave Rust and
! his compeers in the ranks of the Democracy
and men of the ike force and character in
every State in the Union. Why is he thus
strong as well in the North as the South
Because he is the candidate of the Democracy
Of the whole Nation and not Il section of it.
Let no man falter in the cause of Douglas
and the Union, on the deceitful representa-
tiuns of bis enemies, that he has mo chance
in the South" He has chance in the South
and a large chance at that. The recent elec
tions show it. The men who are advocating
him in the South show it. Every thin!
shows it, and every man who reads conno
but see that Breckinrdge in the South is tn
third man in the contest
Why. the news 10y telegraph and by th
Pony Express is so fatal to the Breckinrids'
party, that their newspaper organs have NJ
other answer to the intelligence than tn,
silly assumption That the telegraph and the
Pony lie 7 After such come off as that ",
should think it was high time for them tC
hang their harps upon the willows.
