The CONTEST IN kENTcKY. - The
/ Louisville Courier (Demucrat!c) offers
the following opinions concerning the
contest in Kcnturky:
The contest in the slavc-holdng
/ States is between Breckenridge and
/ Bell. And between these the choice
must be made. Douglas will not only
not carry one Southern State, but he
will scarcely receive a respectable
minority vote south Of Mason and Dix
on'S line. Every voter in Kentucky
understands that if he does not vote
for breckenridge, it is an indication Of
preference for Bell He who is not
for us is against us. He who does
not help Brcckinridge is really sup
porting Bell. We do not believe there
are three score Of those who have
heretofore rallied under the Democrat
&c flag, in this State, who desire lis
electoral vote to be given to the can
dIIatrs Of the Union Party--the rep.
rcseutative Of acknowledgement.

elsewhere, from the Cambridge Intellgencer
call for Union meeting to be hello; at

next As Dorchester is one Of the largest
Slave-holding counties in the State it is safe to
presume that the call expresses the scntin en,s
ola large majority Of the people of the State,
ana that when the proper time comes for the
State to speak out upon the subject of dis.
