PLAIN TALK FROM A PENNsYLvAArAN.-John NJ
Cooper, Esq, Of Chambersburg, Pa, in retiring
from the editorship of the Valley Spirit, made
use Of the following plain language in his vale.
Ilctory, in view of the then possible nomination
of Stephen "A. Douglas:
Should the Democratic National Convention
Oh reassrmbling at Baltimore, commit the SUI
preme folly Of nominating that gentleman fol-
the Presidency shall be one of about mil
lion DeDocrats who will refuse to vote for
him.
There are many reasons why will not vote
for Mr.. Douglass but will state only three Of
them here First, He has abandoned the Gin
cinnati platform. Second, He has repndi%tel
the decision of the Supreme Court ofthe United
States. Third, He has caused the defeat of
the Democratic party of Pennsylvania for two
years In succession.
We commend these reasons to the special at
tention Of the Pennsylvania Democracy. We
think they apply with double force now.

health, pleasure and recreation, l1f ~
that they have newly fitted up ezs=se===z
their establishment at the CASTOR SPRINGS
and are prepared to offer better accommoda-

finest medical properties, as many heretofore
afflicted with dyspepsia, rheumatism, jaundice,.
and functional and organic diseases can testify.
The Springs are situated in pleasant, health
full pine-valley region, with an abundance Of
game, and every facility will be afforded to
those who delight to chase and kill the silver
footed deer.
The roads are good from almost any point,
North; South, East Or West.
There are lighthouses provided for those
who desire to test the efficacy Of the water by,
bathing, and those who desire amusements will
be furnished with Ball Rooms, Ball Alleys, &c.
The proprictors are distinguished for their un-
wcaricd attention to the happiness and comfort
of their guests, ana their charges are more mod
crate than most places Of similar resort.

tba. the object Of the purchase is to give

DOUGLAS MEN COMING,

The contest between the Douglas men AMI
the Breckinridge:tcs for supremacy within the
Democratic party and the co1trol Of the or
ganizstioa in 1864, goes On with uaabated
vigoE. In the South, Douglas has no chance
whatever. His friends arc Completely over
Whelmed by The current Of popular sentiment
which runs strongly in fav5r Of the Secession
ista, and are begging for the privilege Of voting
for Bell and Everett, as their easiest and
cheapest way Of sliding out Of an organ;za-
ton that is already wrecked. In the North.
they have better courage, though no more

the local apol-of gaining hero and there q
Congressman, the county officers and the like,
and the further hope Of compelling an acknow.
kedgement that they arc the Democratic psrty.

that they now strive to accomplish. Many Of
them, who prefer Breckinridge and q National
6lave Code to Lincoln and Slavery Restriction,

nothing but an insane hatred Of FREQ PRINCIPLES
can inspire, for Douglas succcss in txo or

The e1cursion Of Canadian gentlemen hiss

II has really but just commenced, enough has
already transpired to show The wisdom of those
who planned it. The Canadian Press is very
largely represented. The information which
they will scatter broadcast over Canada must
have favorable effect upon public opinion at
home, and will dissipate those visions Of agce
and other untold horrors, which hare been held
up before the people there, to prevent them
from leaving the douinions Of Queen Victoria.
