We begin now to suspect, that for every ten DEM
oe,.ats who Douglas may detaeh in the South from

friends, who rally to Breck and Lane. The defec-
ton of so many prominent men already from the
Bell and Everett cause will, we fear, not be with
out lis serious effect for the reason that these
representative men. And the policy recommended
by Governor Hunt and and Mr.. Books, of New
York, to unite with two lifelong enemies TO aborb
the Bell and Everett ticket is not calculated to
courage the honest Southern supporters of Col.
Bell, who are going in for him against the field.
The Union men are to hold a State ratification
meeting il this city on Wednesday next, and We
shall then be able to judge whether tine rumors we
have aiInded tG have any basis of truth in them or
not and wa shall then. Also see, whether the same
exclusive partisan policy inaugurated at the late

Whether it has changed its opinion about those

ward.

In the Washington correspondence of
the 18th to the ~. \, Tribune, we find
the following:
"a good deal of sensation exists in this
city by reason of the accession to the Lincoln
ranks Of a large portion of the rank and file
Of the late Bell and Everett or American party
in Baltimore. This class of working men,
being Disguised by the course of the dry goods
portion Of the party in supporting others than
an American for Mayor, have resolved to ga
for Lincoln, and may thus prevent the State
Of Maryland from going for Mr.. Bell. This
sort of feeling will extend to other Southern
cities. Here the Republicans are getting
considerable accessionS."
And why should not the nation
South as well as North-look toward the
election Of Abraham Lincoln as the best
means Of rebuking the arrogance and
corruption of the ruling powers at Wash
irgton. And the moral courage of
Southern men to act what they believe
will soou fill the Southern cities and
towns with thousands upon thousands of
good honest Lincoln men for if, but a
half-dozen get together and demonstrate
the fact that the mission of Republican,
ism is honest and peaceable, hen there
are thousands throughout the South who
will gladly join the Lincoln forces Dot
out Of revenge or a desire to abolish slav-
cry where it is, but because they have
seer and felt its blight upon society and
desire to see some position taken by the
National government which will tend to
prevent its further extension These are
the truly conservative men of the South
as are, also the Lincoln men the most
truly conservative men of the North.
The Hon. John Minor Bolts of Virginia,
and the Hon, Henry Winter Davis of
Maryland, represent, and are leading the
people of the South to recognize and ap-
prove, this principle. They advise and
advocate that every fusion in the South

a Citizen OG Illinois Whipped
10 Death in Texas.

The Chicago Press d Tribune has a
letter from Mr.. Frederick Amthar, who
was recently driven out of Texas on some
frivolous pretence. He gives the follow
inc account of the horrible whipping
which a young man received in hat State,
which resulted in death. He says
"a young man from Illinois, by the
name Of Evans, came to Henderson, and
while there was i~ncautious enough to say
that he thought Free States were prefer,
able to Slave States, aud that he thought
slavery was wrong. These statements, as
far as | heard them, he made in the mild
est manner, and that only when pressed
into the subject by the young men about
town. | am satisfied that he never said
or thought Of saying anything, except
when conversation on the subject was
forced upon him. | had but a slight ac-
quaintance with the young man, but |
told him that he ought not to allow him
self to be dragged into talking on the top
ic. But he was not careful. In Decem-
Der last, this young man was taken OUT by
a moo, without a trial of any Kind, and
whipped to death. The Henderson New
Era, a paper published in Henderson, JUS

that Evans was a common thief, an Abo-
litionist, &c. | was shown the whip

strumcnt of his death. 1t was covered
with blood. | also saw what | was in

Of the North can pass no law whatever,
unless they first elect a President who
will sympathise with them. The Presi'
dents reto would .Grerer prevent the
passage Of a Homestead bill, or any other
bill the shareholders choose to oppose,
unless the Slave Power is deprived of the
control of the President and the same
veto power makes it impossible to repeal
am obnoxious bill while James Buchan
an or a President under the control Of
Slavery sits in the White House. The
statements of the PeRHSy}Uanidn are
therefore untrue, and we believe the writ
er knew them to be so. The influence of
the President on legislation has unfor-
tunately, come to be almost potential.
1t is therefore of the utmost Importance
that a Republican is about to be elected.
