Mr.. DOUGLAS SpEEGIEs.-The Albany Journal,
VIM. H. Stewards "higher law organ, is much
pleased with Mr.. Douglas speeches. It says:
Mr.. Lincoln, if called out by his friends, would
have given expression to these sentiments. They
are the sentiments of the Republican party. In
all the slavery agitations" in Congress, since
1850, Republicans have acted on the defensive.
Slavery has been the aggressor.
The ground Judge Douglas is compelled to oc-
cupy shows where things are drifting. His sec
ton of the Democratic party has ceased to be the
pro-slavery party. 1t is now in the position (as
to slavery of the Democratic Freesoil party OF
1s4s. Whether, like that party it will, when the
election is over, slime back, remains to be seen.
Probably not. The census may influence its
nounced by Douglas will be indicated and es-
tablished by the election of a Republican Presi-
dent.

A%voyELLEs mi Po1SrE CourEE.-We
were present on Saturday, the 18th, at
the splendid barbecue given by the De-
mocracy Of these gallant parishes at
Simmsport. The arrangements were
perfect and the turnout fully correspond
ed with the Importance of the event.
Gen b. B. SHINES introduced the speak
ing by a few appropriate remarks. He
was followed by Hon. i. j. Semmcs in
one Of those sound, logical and %convinc-
ing speeches which have already earned
for him so high a reputation. Col. II.
w. Allen, of West Baton Rouge, and II.
II. Walsh, Esq, followed in the order
named in speeches both eloquent and
argumentative. The meeting passed off
most pleasantly and particularly graft
flying to the true Democracy. 1t was
so nearly unanimous for Breckenridge
and Lane that a faint "hurrah" for Bell,
INDUCED in occasionally by PERSONS out
side the church, never failed to produce
mirth in the crowd. advocate.

Editor Democrat-In the remarks |
made at the Democratic meeting at the
Court House on last Saturday, the 9th
inst, az reported in your paper to-day,
there is an error in attributing to Mr..
Douglas, as an answer to question put
to him by Mr.. Lincoln, that he is pledged
to the belief in the right and duty OF
Congress to prohibit slavery in the Ter.
ritories. That answer was given by
Mr.. Lincoln to a question put to him by
Mr.. Douglas. As | am DESTROYS of be.
ing right on the record, and not to mis-.
represent any one, I beg you to publish
this note. The rest Of the report is
correct. =,

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT,
AUSTIN, TEX, Aug. 20, 1860.

Mn. W. S. Taylor:
Dear Sr-Your letter of the 18th has this mo-
ment reached me-. Replying, l would say that
Congress has no power overt the subjecto of slavery.
The Territories are but the creatures of Congress,
and Congress, having no power to ~legislate upon
the subject of slavery, it cannot invest the Terrific
ries with that which it does not possess. A Terri
tory can exercise no power whatever in relation
to slavery. A State only has the power to estab-
fish or abolish it. This is the true Democratic
creed, as l understand it, Oh the subject. A
Territory in convention preparatory to becoming
a State, can, by their constitution. say whether
they will or will not have slavery. This is the
whole sum of the matter.
Very truly, yours, SAM HousTos.

Correspondence.

NEW ORLEANS, Sept. Ii, lebo.
Editor Democ7ut-When l left the city, about
six weeks ago, for the lake shore, where | spent
nv time with hunting, fishing, and occasionally
falling into the water, the Douglasites of this city
were in high spirits; they were sure the Little
Giant.would carry off the belt. To-day, on my
return, l found the poor fellows as quiet, sad, and
melancholy, and with a solemnity on their coun-
~tenanees, as if they had to attend their champions
funeral. The fact is, they were told by Mr.. soule
and the lesser prophets, that their success was
certain; and what is more, they believed it. They
now became eager to earn the fame of apostles
of their political creed, and accordingly went,
full of zeal, into the country to enlighten the
heather and proclaim the great dogma of squatter
Sovereignty; but they returned with the crowns
they are for fusion with the Bellies. I wish they
would accomplish it. The leaders, whom we don't
want nohow, would, no doubt, be patriotic enough
to go over, while the honest rank and file would
vote for Breckenridge. The doctrineo of the equal
rights of the States, as maintained and advocated
by the Old Liners, does wonders; and before No
vember next it will, l assure you, be understood
by a great many more voters. North and South,
than is supposed by its opponents.
Mr.. Douglas, who is now peddling about his
claims, rights, and titles to the Presidency, to the
entire disgust even Of his own friends, will rue the
day on which he turned traitor to the Democratic
party. I do not think, however, that he first in
tended to do what he did. He probably thought
that if he would shape his Democracy to the taste
of the free States, and thus gain their votes and
interest, the South would Of necessity come in for
lagniape. He sought to serve two masters-the
Freesoilers and the Southerners-in order to get
double wages; but he too, like many other fast
politicians, was made to experience to his sorrow
that
"The race is not for to be got
By him who fastest runs;
Nor the battel by the peo-pel
Vat shoots the longest guns
I suppose he now wishes he was in Dixie.
The Bellies, since their victory in Kentucky,
have become quite sanguine and exalted. Ihey
became even so desperate as to bet on Louisiana
against Breckenridge. The Crescent published
twice a bet of from Eve hundred to one thousand
dollars to this effect. You should have seen the
procession of Democrats that each time waited
upon the editor. It looked like a run on a broken
bank.
The city is still healthy, and hot-ugh! | be-
lieve if the preachers had taken advantage Of this
hot summer, and had raised the thermometer in
hell Just a little above that in New Orleans, we
would have cried for mercy and got converted,
every one of us. 1t was hot enough to convert
the c~raziest Aboliionist.
/ will give you a report of the next grand
Democratic rally and Of other political meetings,
with charcoal sketches of the speakers, as they
may occur.
