Democrats of Madison, Wis, has just
published letter in the argus d
Democrat of that city, resigning his
position as Chairman Of the Dane
County Democratic Committee, and
announcing his intention to vote fol
Lincoln. He gives his reasons:
l cannot vote for Mr.. Breckenridge
because he stands upon the pro-slavery
platform.
l do not deem it advisable to vote
for Mr.. Douglas, for the following rea.
sons:
LIST. He cannot be elected.
Cd: Voting for him only increases
the chances of the election of pro-
slavery candidate.

although the possibility of the cleo

House of Representatives is very re-.
mote, yet it excites some speculaLions
as To the result. the compatibility OF
the House entering largely, of course,
into every calculation. And probably
no men have counted more confident
ly on this than the leading supporters
of Mr.. Douglas-and with some show
of reason, too. for with fair field they
would doubtless beat the world in off
ering brides. But the field is hardly
an even battle ground. Of the thirty
three votes which the entire House
will cast, Mr.. Douglas has only one
that of his own State. Mr.. Bell is in
the same predicament. Mr.. Lincoln
has fifteen. and three States-Ken.

Douglas Stamping the Free States,

Nothing marks the degeneracy Of
the Democratic party more clearly
than the means resorted to by Doug
las for advancing his prospects. He
is the first Presidential candidate who
has mounted the stump TO advocate his
own election. Hitherto such candi-
dates have maintained decent silence
from the moment Of writing their let.
ters of acceptance to the -close of the
canvass. Any deviation from this
rule has been the subject of denuncia-
tory critisisms and Of public censure.
Witness the obloquy which was heap
ed on Gen. Scott, because he visited
Kentucky in 1859, although public
business connected with the militnry
department obliged him 10 make that
visit But Mr.. Douglas. under one
prefer or another, is vagabondizing oil
over New England and Jew York,
aud availing himself of every halt at a
railroad depot to make stump speech
in which he vilifes the Republican
party almost as much as the party
which is headed by Breckenridge
Under every circumstance he is faith
full to the one character Of demagogue'
He carries the tactics Of the vulgar,
third-class politician into the struggle
for the highest Office in the glft OF the
people. What falling off is this from
the standard of other days, when the
rule was, that the Office should seek
the man, not the man the Office The
Illinois Senator seeks the office o.
P;esidant with the same avidity with
which the aIchemisls sought for the
Philosopher Stone, and doubtless
his success will be equal TO theirs.-
Long before the sixth of oyembe
comes round, he will realize that he i
now on fouls errand.
In contrast to the naked demagog
uery of Douglas, the Republicans ma
point. with pride 10 the reserv'd an
modest bearing Of their own candidate
Since the day OF his nomination, Nj
Lincoln has never left Springfield, nc

admiration and respect, yet there
such a thing as expressing with kin

delighted with all this, but we do kno
that il would wear out any man, al

he werea strong as Samson, and me
