These have caught mp the fre-brand
in the North and hurled it at the peo-
pie for the purpose ofmaking votes for
Douglas.
The South seeing this, and fearing 4
dissolution III earnest, and realizing the
condition she would then be in. thinks
she has carried the Joke to far is now
partially taking the back track.
The following are a few of their late
sentiments:
The Richmond Na.) Wig, which
estimates the Disunion buster at its
true value. has the andacitv to say:
We venture to predict that not one
N 2 thousand Of AL the Democratic
o~t'iccholaers in the South will decline
to continue II office in the event Of Lin.
coins election.
Inc same paper, noticing a recent
disturbance among the negroes near
Mount Sterling, Kentucky, remarks:

character Of the speeches made b.
Democrats daily, in the presence q:
slaves, 1t is surprising that scenes of
this sort are not OF frequent occur

The Mount Sterling Tlv.) HN;a SAYS
in speaking Of the affair above referred
to:

bic.
The Richmond Hh;y puts the sad
Gle on the right horse in the follow
ias:

sion.
The Mobile (.Alabama) Register,
says:
While The leaders Of the disruption
part.g are willing under the issue which
they have s.precipitatea" in the event
OF Lincolus election, some of the II.
responsible rank and file are proclaim
ing Immediate secession. A shrcwd
observer remarked, the other day, that
n2on that subject the people Of the
South would pursue Just that course
which they should find it to their inter
est to pursue; and that the politicians
could not control the matter. SO we
think. The people do take the bits in
their mouths, sometimes, with a re-
frcshing disregard Of leaders.
In a recent speech at Huntsville.
Ala, Ex-senator Clemens, now OF
Tennessee, secuted the idea Of sccess-
Ion, exposing its utter impracticability
and added:
The dream eta Southern Confedcra-
cy i the wi2lest risiion that ercr troubled

Savannah Republican writes:
