Gas to Stephen A. Douglas man whom
we had at one time politically embosomed
VIC look upon him at this moment as one oi
tho most heartless, cold, and designing dem.
agogues that ever did an injury 10 our par
ty. To an arrogance unprecedented be
united dictatorial temper which has led him
TO wade to his chin to rule or ruin his par
ty. As to bis squatter-sovereignty doctrine
VIC hold 1t in more absolute contempt and
unqualified detestation than we do the prin-
ciple of the Wilmot provso."
PREFERS L1NcoLN.-The editor of the
Cumberland, Nd, Telegraph, the Ameri-
can organ, referring to a statement that the
opposition party of Alabama had, in conven-
tion repudiatcd Bell and Everett, and de-
clared their purpose to support Brecken-
ridge and Lane, says:
We prefer Mr.. Lincoln before either of
the Democratic nominees, and if driven
from our support of Mr.. Bell by the treach-
cry Of our leading men--ir our party is to
be sold out to either wing of the Democ-
racy-then we arc for Lincoln, with tens Of
thousands of others in good old Maryland.
The indianapolis Guard breckenridge
Democratic organ) copies the anti-squatter-
sovereignty-slave-code report made by Her
schel V. johnson last month"; part of his
record which the Enquirer has not yet OAR
ED to publish or explain-and says:
Ye freGsoil, squatter sovereignty Douglas
men, who are going ahead even of Owen
Lovejoy, in the abuse of the "slave oligar-
chy, "whatare you going to do with the"slave-
code Johnson!" Or is it true that you
caro- nothing for platforms or principles,
but that you are only after public plumber
that you have snutfed up the scent of four
hundred millions of plunder, and that, as
Dickinson says, "you expect the admnistra-
ton of Douglas TO rain milk and honey,
snow powdered sugar, and hail Moffat's Veg
etablo Life Pills?"
The Missouri Republican-the ablest and
most influential Douglas journal that We re-
celve-has letter from New Orleans
sympathizer, who says:--N Y. Tribune.
GAS Douglas and Breckenridge stand up
on the same platform in regard to the rights
of Slavery in the Territories, few thinking
men assert any preference for the latter on
account of Southern citizenship, and there
is, consequently, nothing left to stimulate
such preference"
A SLIGHT INoUMBRANcE.-Atth the Breck-
enridge meeting in New York the other
evening, Daniel S. Dickinson said that
when the New England and Northwestern
delegates at Baltimore promised their States
TO Douglas, that pledge was made "subject
to slight incumbrance, held By one A6ra-
ham Lincoln~
DOUGLAS WILL NOT DEcLINE.-The
Springfield, ILL.,, Register the State organ
of Douglas, announces that Mr.. Douglas has
no idea Of resigning his Senatorsbip for the
barren prospects of the Presidency, and
thus confirms the Little Giants declaration
that the election of the Republican candi-
date is already virtually secured.
The St. Paul Ninnesotian says that when
all of the Democratic papers in Minnesota
have taken their position, they will stand
eleven for Breckenridge and Lane and four
for Douglas and johnson.
The Iowa State Register says that five
voters in one family at Rising Sun, near
Des Moines, who voted the Democratic tick
ct last year, arc now in favor of the Repub-
lcan ticket. Thus it goes every where.
A REPUBLICAN LIBERTY POLE NOT PER
MITTED IN ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS was
recently made By the Republican Associa-
tion for permission to raise liberty pole in
Washington. The mayor consented, as did
also the Commissioner of Public Buildings
at first, but after nine days delay in an ex-
animation Of the laws, DR.. Blake has discov-
cred that it is unlawful to erect liberty poles
in the District, and therefore the permit is
withdrawn. Queer country this when a
liberty pole can't stand in the Capital of
the Republic.
An interesting will case has recently oc-
cupied the attention of the North Carolina
Courts. 1t appears that Mr.. Solomon Hall
made will leaving one hundred negroes
and other property to his only child,a daugh-
ter, who afterward married Mr.. Nicely
against his wish; whereupon be made anoth-
er will leaving the negroes free and leaving
most of his property to them. The suit
was to set aside the last will. An hour af-
ter the case had gone to the jury, Mrs. Nee
ly proposed to receive $4,000 and $4,000
which the will gave her; the estate to pay
the Court costs, $500; she to pay her own
lawyer, $4,000. The proposition was ac-
cepted. The negroes will be sent to Libe-
ria. The Jury stood nine against and three
for the will; but it is said the Judge would
have set aside the verdict if il had been
against the will.

The Postmaster General is about to issue
an important circular to Postmasters, re.
quiriug, among other things, that in all ca
ses postage stamps, and not money, must
be used in prepayment of hostages, and
prohibiting the use of the rating stamp in
eancelling postage stamps. A neglect to
cancel postage stamps effectually, or to
postmark letters plainly will be regarded as
cause for serious censure. IL not removal
