Col. Baker.

A number Of the Douglasites Of this
county exultcd over the election of Ned.
Baker to the United States Senate, and
asserted that he is good Douglas Demo.
crat. If he is then is Douglas a straight.
out Black Republican. What says Baker
On Friday evening last he addressed q
Black Republican meeting in San Fran.
cisco. at the American Theater, and spoke
as follows:
al have come TO make Republican speech.
Four years ago this night 10 front If this very
house, bad the honor TO attempt to Law q littL.
deeper and broader the principles Of Republi.
cani>m. We were young and untried party
then-we were, as they say up in nv country,
twO.year old colt. But We should have won
then If we had not been cheated. I recolIect
snying then that as Revolutions never 20 back
ward, iwhoever became a Republican thea
would remain one. We have lost nothing since,
aud are gaining everybody"
lie procluims himself an ardent Repub-
lican, boldly announces that he "comcs
to make Republican speech" and that
four years ago he attempted to lay a
little deeper and broader the principles
Of RepuLlicanisD." And this man, nm
ultra Black Republican, who boasts Of his
Republicanism, who has ever been Bit
ter, malignant enemy Of the Democratic
party, the friends Of Douglas have elected
to the U. S. Senate over long tried, true
and veteran Democrats. They knew his
antccedents, knew that he was leading
Republican, knew that he traduced Gen.
Jackson, knew that he had ever vindic-
lively assaiIcd Democratic champions and
misreprcsented Democratic measures, and
yet they voted for him. They but fol-
lowed the example, however, of their
Douglas brethren in this State, who voted
for him for Congress in opposition to the
regular nominees Of the Democratic par
ty. If Baker and Douglas agree in senti.
ment and belong to the same party, as
the Douslasites of this State assert, then
is Douglas Republican, for Baker boasts
Of being one.

STUBBORN FAcTs.-When the Constitu.
tion was ratified and accepted as the su-
preme law Of the land, we became one
nation and one people; that no State de-
manded that other States should eman.
cipate their slaves, or that slavery should
not be permitted in the Territories that
all agreed to come into the Union, although
there was an irrepealable clause inserted
in tho Constitution tacitly permitting the
States to carry on the slave trade for
twenty years; that General Washington,
in his official political capacity, approved
the Constitution, signed and swOre to sup
port it, and that provided for the impor-
tation Of slaves and the continuance Of
slavery, until the States themselves should
abolish it; that Mr.. Jefferson, as Presi.
dent, negotiated the purchase Of LOuisi-
ana, and stipulated that slavery then ex-
iSting there should not be interfered with.
These are indisputable facts, and show
how the trainers of the Constitution and
the patriots Of the Revolution, the wisest,
purest, nOblest statesmen of our country
regarded slavery.

PERr, OF. So, l>il.
MESSRs EDIrons II is with feelings nf the
.r"p'st regret, chronic le the murder and rob.
pcrv Of one of our best and mrnSt respected
riILrms. The circumstances are about IN fol-
lows Last evening, between the honrs Uf
and O'clock. fur miners Of this locality were
seated in the slnre of Mesars. PierHon 4 Heck.
imcckcr, engaged in u social game of cards,
when five men entered, pistols in hand aud
faces masked. The partF engaged in the card
game, supposed they were only party nf
miners bent on q little fun, and accordingly at.
tempted to set the dog IN them. This Innvc
resulted in Que shot being fired by the rnbbcrs
At the card-players. Tie r"bbcra then told
them il they would remain quiet they shnuld
not be hurt. Cp0n this proposition being
agreed to. the rascalS then demanded nf NJ.
Pcrsnn, the key tn bis cafe. He told them il
was no, in the store. They then commenced
beating him with the butt end Of their pistols !;
he, warded OF the blows. and attempted to
make bis escape By . dnor leading into the
family room, but they were too fast, and deter.
mined not 10 allow him tn escape. lie was
fired upon By one IT the villains. the shot ia.
king effect near his eve, and producing almost
instant death. They then tnnk the kew from
his pocket, rifed the safe Of its contents, and
departed. No one knows h0W much money
was in the safe. but it is supposed there was
a Thousand dollars or more. This robbery and
murder are unequallcd inr boldness and daring,
and have produced great excitement in the vi.

IT FACT, universally admitted, that
the Democratic party is the only political
organization in the country which can
preserve the peace, the harmony, and the
fraternity of the Union. Itisfoundcd on
the great fundamental principle Of self.
government, which underlies all our in
stitutiOns, and its history is the history Of
the Republic. 1t IS the duty. therefore,
Of every lover Of his country, of every
friend Of free institutions, to give it a corr
dial support. 1t has met and conquered
all parties, factions and isms that have
opposed it, and it will do so again. 1t is
full Of life, vigOr and ability it enjoys
the confidence Of the people, the respect
Of its adversaries, the sympathies Of the
oppressed, and it will live in strength and
glory long after its opponents shall have
been forgotten. 1t is an honor to be an
humble member of such q party, a dis
grace to war against it. Breckenridge and
Lane are its representatives, and all loyal
Democrats are fighting under their untar-
nished banner.

n.nnhIisnn nrsstinR.

The Theater was well filled last Friday
night with q prOmiscuous crowd, ma
jority of whom, however, were Black Re-
publicans, to hear our eccentric friend
Weeks, Republican EIector, who has
happy faculty Of joining and deserting par
ties without why or wherefore. His
political career has been rather more err
ralic than successful, and he thoroughly
understands when to embrace, when to
reject principle; when to advocate, when
to denounce the same platform. He has
large heart, encased in ponderous body,
and phiz that denotes jollity and levity,
but not firmness nor earncstnesa lie is
an unreliable politician and an unsafe
teacher, prone to adopt principles without
reflection or investigation, aud abandon
them without cause or shame. We know
where TO find him now, but what party
nc will belong to year hence no man can
tell, not even himself And yet we do not
question his sincerity.
Ills speech was characteristic Of the
man, singular compound of icvity and
earncStneSS, Of truth and error, Of sense
and folly, Of strength and fceLleneSs, Of
elegance and cOarseness, Of eIoquence and
slang, of extravagant assertions and idle
charges. At times he was really eloquent
and forcible, reasoning with skill and
judgment-at times he descended to the
butfoon and destroyed the favorable i'm
preston he had made. He was terribly
severe on Douglas and convicted him Of
the grossest inconsistency and basest in
gratitude and treachcry. lie handled ad-
mirably and with great power and effect,
Douglas assertion, when he was counting
the favor Of the South, that no power on
earth could exclude slavery from Terri

The Republicans cheered him extrava.

delight Indeed, every one present np.
Peared pleased with his speech. 1t was
amusing, witty and entertaining, but moi

and c0mical manner made friends Of all
When he concluded he was loudly cheer

He briefly reviewed the platforms of tn,
different parties, and convinced the Re
pubicans-not difficult task-that they
were an intelligent aud patriotic set of frl
lows, and that old Abe was sure 10 be the
next President. The meeting adjourned
with cheers for the rail splitter.

DoUoLAsN TExAs.-Would'nt Stephen
do well to 20 " in search Of his ma" down
into Texas! There is the merest apology
of a Douglas faction down there. They
laugh at the idea Of his running, and
never mention his name but with deriSion.
They look upon him rs traitor to the
Democratic party, an unsafe leader and
politician, who praises the "peculiar in.
stitutiOns" Of the South when among
Southerncrs, and denOunces them when
in the free States. The Houston Telegraph
informs us that there are forty.seven
newspapers in Texas supporting Breck.
inridge, and not one for Douglas. No
man has taken the stump for Douglas.
The universal sentiment Of the people, so
far as it has found expression in the pub
lie prints, is against him."
