The conflict at Charleston, uf which NC bayo
been warning our renders for several days,
seems to havo broken out in earnest, and Tn
friendly Legislation and the Congressional
Slave Code hare each other by tbs throat.
At this distance from the sccro oftlle conflict,
and as spectators to whom the ono abo1nina-
ton is as detestablc as the o:i,er, the quarrel
is ridiculous. Knowing as we do that Mr..
Douglas and his friends do lot differ hairs
breadth from the fsc-eatera as to tho objects
10 he accomplished by the so~ca1led Democrat
ic organization, the stirring up Of bud blood,
hy reason Of disagreement in relation to the
method By which Slarery shall BE- extended
and Freedom becten down, is absurd. The
war thus commenced will l.:ye tho effect to
nominate Southern man, or to nominate q
Northern man on an ultra Southern platform,
or to split the Convention in two, leaving tho
delegates from tho North to raise the standard
Of Douglas, and those from the South to put
up the namc Of Hunter or Davis. We will not
undertake TO predict which one Of the three
propositions will 10 rcnlized; but in any event
it is certain that Nj. Douglass prospects have
by this days work been materially ifrot fatally
damaged.
