Probability That BLAIR will Get the
Seat for the Short Term-How 2O7
Votes for Blair Were Thrown Out.
SPECIAL DisI a,ch to the Ci,.cinuat Commercial.
Barrett s aj"rily for the vacancy is
less than goo. There were 2O7 votes
cast. which read as follows. For Congress,
Francis p. Blair--These were thrown out
because they failed to state whether they
were intended for the long or short term,
or both. AS each ballot is numbered
and every voters name registered with
the number corresponding to his ba!ot,il
has been pr posed to call these 2O7 votes
up before the Court and ascertain how
they intended to vote.
Good legal authority says that this can
be done and these votes recorded. This
will give Blair his seat in the 36th Con
gress. and give additional lustre TO oul
already brillian. victory. We have lost
only one officer on the county ticket, viz:
Thos. G. Nelson, for Recorder, who is
probably defeated. The entire Republi-
can Legislative ticket is elected. Orl's
majority in this county will be nearly g..
90.

In 1858, in a speech at Galesburg,
Illinois, says the Fremont Journal Ste,
phen Arnold Douglas thus declared for
Popular Sovereignty: --...
The great fundamental principle Of
our Government is, thet the people of each
State and Territory shall be perfectly free
TO decide for themselves what shall be the
nature and character of their institu-
tions."
In the same year, a few months later, the
champion of this doctrine had occasion to
visit New Orleans, and behold what a
change came over him in this comparative
ly brief period! In speech delivered in
that city be allowed himself to say:
''.Salues are regarded as property, and
placed on an equal footing with ell other
property. Hence the owner of slaves,
the same as the holder of any other spe>
cies Of property, has right to removs to
any Territory and cdrrg his property Nth
him.
In speech in the Senate last February,
Mr.. D., forgetful Of his Galesbur; ora-
ton, said:
II do not hold that sguatter sovereignty
is superior to the Constitution. l hold
that no such thing as sovereign poacer at:
taches to Territory as Territory. hold
that a Territory possesses whatever pow
er it derives from the Constitution under
the organic act, and no more"
A few weeks later, in order to show
the South how Popular Sovereignty had
operated to the advantage of Slavery. he
said in bis speech in the Senate:
"Under this doctrine Of non,interven-
ton the people Of New Mexico have con-
verted a tract of Free Territory into
Slave Territory more than fee times the size
Of the State of New York. t--

THE UNION AND ITS VERY RE-
SPECTACLE CONTRIBUTORS.

It is generally conceded that when an
individual condescends to notice or reply
TO the vulgar slang Of blackguard, he
thereby places himself upon level with
its degraded author: hence our readers
will at once see the propricty Of our treat
ing with contempt the tissue Of filthy
stuff that appeared in the last number Of
the Democratic Union, Of this place. in re-
gard to US. The author. who, by the way.
prctends to be a christicn, has subjected
himself to the withsring contempt Of eye
ry decent man in community, while the
poor. innocent, inoifensivc creature, who
pretends to preside over the columns Of
that sheet is pitied BY every man who
has the least drop Of the milk of human n
kindness in his bosom for thus being made
the dupe of designing hypocrites and
demagogues and led by them to prostitute
the columns OF his paper to the dissemina-
ton Of such disgusting and demoralizing
Billingsgate slang in respectable neigh
| borhood.
Whenever the Wyandot Pioneer shall
have become so degraded as to be used as
the medium for the conveyance to the
family circle of our neighbors Of the i'll
thy ebulitions of heart black with ha.
tired TO its fellow man, and mind deran-
gcd by the failure of its own selfish and
bigo,ed aspirations-whenever We shall
have become so lost to honor and dead te
shame; whenever we SO far forget oul
manhood as to prostitute our columns 10 SC
base use as that of being converted in
to the vehicle for the conveyance Of such
disgraceful stuff to the minds of the in.
nocent and virtuous as appeared in tht
last number of the Union-we say when
ever we become so degraded, we will tx
pect to see our paper carried from the
house Of every decent man with q pair O
tongs and ourself hooted out of commu
nifty by an outraged people.
We advise those of our readers whose
stomachs are not easily disturbed. and
whose minds are proof against the con

HARD TO PLEASE.

Our cvtemporary of the Democratic
Union will not be satisfied with the man
ner in which we have treated hisattempt to
catechise us in reference to what he terms
our "political record" We are extreme
]y sorry .that it is a source of so much
trouble to our inquiring neighbor, but
really we cannot see what oar position in
1855 upon the Presidential question has
to do with the contest between the sever.
al candidates for the Presidency in 1860.
There is no man, nor set Of men, respon-
sible for our acts but oursef, and when
we become candidate for the Presidency,
which will be about the time tho people
begin to elect such men as Stephen A.
Douglas,we will then condescend to notice
questions propounded by the editors Of
eight-by-ten newspapers.
We might ask our curious neighbor
whether he..is opposed to the next war, but
then we are not exactly certain that the
position Of even SO great man as be is
upon this all absorbing question will be
considered as legitimately entering into
the present contest for the Presidency.
II we were to ask him whether he is
honestly and sincerely opposed to the
measles or not. it might be commended by
bis friends that his position upon that
n'irea question was not at issue.
Or. if we were to request him to say
whether he is still Of the opinion that the
moon is made Of "green cheese" he
probably would reply that this luminous
subject is not now properly before the peo-
pie, and thst even if he is "of the same
opinion still, that has nothipg'to do with
such trivial N alters as is contest for the
Presidency. ..
And yet We might demand answers 10
these great and comprehensive questions
with about as much propriety as his char
ac'er'zed his attempt to place us upon
the stand in regard to questions of an en-.
tlrely personal nature and that do not
enter into the campaign in any shape
whatever,

have the largest majority ever given to
any candidates.
The adjoining districts have generally
been Democratic. but last year one Of
them elected Hale 10 Congress. They
will probable be both again returned
The Democracy are hopelessly divided
Judge Douglas will be left greatly behind
BreckinriJge in nearly all the strong
Democratic counties, and in the State will
fall far short of him. Bell and Everett
have no strength. Ali the important
leading Fillmore men are for Lincoln, and
the triumph of the Republican party over
all the factions opposed to twill be the
most overwhelming. The Peoples par
ty are essentially united upon Lincoln.-
The Anti-Lecompton Democrats, as a
body will not follow Forney in The sup
port Of Douglas. They have become SO
blended with the Republican party for
the last two elections, that very few Of
them can be drawn back to the hopeless
support OF Douglas.
You may be assured that whatever the
result Of the October election. the State is
safe for Lincoln and Hamlin in November.
There is present prospect that Curtin
will carry the State by large majority,
although the Democrats unite upon For
ter, and that they will do so is most prob
bic. Gen Foster has about no,a>comnaaNe-
ism enough in his character to en-
able him TO speak kindly to both
factions of the emoeracy. AS to po-
lisical principles, he has had none
for years, and of course will make
no sacrifice of them, either to Southern
Slavery propagaudism, or to Douglas non

Pennsylvania.
McConnezs5uryh, august 1.-THE De-
mocracy held county meeting last night
at which there was a regular skrmish
between TIE Douglas and Breckinridge
parties. and much bitter feeling was
evinced. The meeting broke up in a
row.
During the absence Of Mr.. SAMSON,
editor Of the Democrat, at Cresson. the
Breckinridge party entered his Office.
mutilated the forms, run up the Brecain-
ridge fsg, and issued an edition of the
paper under that banner. The affair
created great excitement.
A personal rcncontre took place after
the meeting between Mr.. SAMSON, editor
of the Democrat, and G. A. Smith, a
Breckenridge man and an attorney
SAMSON gave Smith the lie, when the
latter collared him.
E Senator Green, of Missouri, in a
recent speech at St Joseph. dealt The Lit
tie Giant sume left-handed blows, as fol-
lows:
He supported John C. C.Breckinridee be-
cause he had never travelled up and down
the river on the deck of steamboat, ad
vocating his own election to the Presiden-
CIV; he never descended into the beer sa-
looms, and drank lager in order to gain
popularity with the rabble; he had never
sent hired letter. writer's all over the coun-
try to puff himself into notoriety. and
cry down every body else; he had never
prostituted the telegraph to sound his own
praises and mislepresent every other
prominent man in the party; and finally,
he supported him because he was the on
II man who had any chance of defeating
Lincoln. No Southern State would, un-
d, r any circumstances. cast her electoral
vote for Douglas. and he didn't believe
he could get single Northern State.
