DOUGLAS CIuh.

Col. George Baylor addressed the Doug.
las and johnson Club, on last Saturday night,
IN one ofthe most sensible and telling speeches
OF the campaign. tits universally conceded
by all who heard him, that it was the most
fcrcible presentation of the issues of the can.
vass That has yet been made in Staunton.-
The main points argued were, which was
the regular nominee, Douglas or Breckin-
ridge, and the Squatter Sovereignty Guess
ton, If he did not convince all who heard
him of the Legitimacy of Douglas nomina.
ton, aud that Squatter Sovereignty was 3
myth, it was because they were SO preipdi c-
ed they would not believe the truth when
presented
Col. Baylor was followed by G., VI Cocii.
ran, jr., Esq, in brief but we'll conceived
and logical speech After giving some
cheering news from the different portions Of
the county through which he had passed, he
went into calm, afeumentative and effec-
tive discussion of the effects of dissolution
of the Union upon the interests of Virginia.
He clearly presented the fact that it was de.
signed by the Secessiousts to benefit the cot4
ton States, in such an event, ut the expense
of the border States. He spoke for three
quarters of al hour.
Last Saturday night was the occasion of
decidedly the most pointed and intelligent
speeches that have marked the meetings Of
the Douglas and johnson Club We trust
this spirit vii! be kept up We want speeches
that will stick--will leave some mark.

70 show the light in which the supporters
Of Mr.. Bell are held by the Black Republi-
cans at the North, we mako the following
extract from recent speech delivered by
the Hon. Thaddeus Stevens, of Pennsylva-
MIA, at the Cooper Institute, New York -
1t is significant, and will set rather heavy
upon the stomachs of some of the Union
lovers in Virginia and the South:
OF Bell and Everett he had little to say. Than
Mr.. Bell an ADLER statesman could scarcely be
found. He differed with Bell emily on the question
OF slavery. They agreed the doctrine of protec-
ton to American industry, and in their hostility to
democracy. But Bell could not be elected. If
Lincoln was elected his administration would be a
conservative one, for he would seek support for his
administration from the Bell men. conjunction
between Bell and the Democrats would be against
nature, but nothing could be more natural than an
alliance between the republicans and the Bell and
Everett men. Between those parties there ought
| to be nc strife. Why should not their Abraham
say to Sell of the other party, as Abraham said to
Lot, why should there be strife between thee and
me! there is room enough for both-go you to the
South, and we shall go to the North" Applause }
This would be, finally, the result notwithstanding
the mercenaries who attempted to lead them. If
the gentlemen who held Union saving meetings
knew how little credit they received from their
Southern masters they would have little hepe in
deed, Of proftting by their subserviency. When
a doughfaced member in the House of Representa-
tlves pointed to the great Union saving meeting in
New York the Southern members sneered att and
openly expressed their doubts not only as to the
power of the mercenaries but even as to their sim
cerity. In that respect. however, great wrong was
done to those Union saving gentlemen. for adj they
not nine times sinitten the ground with their fore
heads in token of submission And if they did not
eat dirt enough lac was sure that if the QUANTITY
prescribed these Union saving men were ready
to please their masters evenn that respect (Cheers
and laughter.a These men were actuated by the
most mercenary motives. They feared for their
profits in their trade with the South, to secure
which they would stocp to anything. Sincere =
Never were the artisans at Ephesus who made gain
by selling silver shrnes of the Goddess more in ear
nest when they shouted, ''Great is Diana of the E.
phesians." Bat vain would prove the efforts of
those Union saving pretenders. There was no fear
but Abraham Linz coin would be the next Presd en- t.

It will be remembered that whilst Judge
Douglas was speaking at Norfolk, Mr.. Lamb,
the Breckenridge Elector for that District,
prcpounded to him two questions, to which
Judge Douglas gave free, frank, unequiv-
ocal response At the close Of his answer,
Judge Douglas remarked that he would
claim it as an act of sheer justice and fair
ness that the Eiector should put the same
questions to Mr.. Breckenridge, and ascer-
tain whether he would as candidly answer
them. 1t was understood by all present
that Mr.. Lamb would do SO, and the public
anxiously awaited the publication of the
speech of Mr.. Breckenridge at Ashland on
the 9th ultimo, to see whether the CUES
tions had been presented, and if SO, what
reply had been made. The speech appear
ed, but not word of alluslon to the ques-
tions was contained in it. Hon. F. E. Rives
Of Petersburg, then addressed letter to
Mr. Lamb, inquiring whether Mr.. Brock
inridge had been Intercepted on the points
to which Judge Douglas responded. Mr..
Lamb has made no reply to the letter of
Mr. Rives. But the following paragraph,
which we find in the True Democrat, taken
from Mr.. Lambs paper, the Norfolk Ar
gus, of the 21st Sept, throws some light
upon the subject, and develops degree of
low cunning on the part of a political oppo-
nent totally irreconcilable with true Vir-
ginia character:
"A few weeks ago the prospects of Breck-
inridge and Lane were gloomy in the South,
but since poor Douglas was caught in the
TRAP we set for him, the tide has turned
against him."
Does Mr. Lamb, gays the Democrat dare
to insult the people of Virginia by averring
that his query to Judge Douglas was prompt
ed by no desire to clear up an obscure sub
ject.no desire to open the eyes OF the South,
no desire to arrive at an intelligent resolve
as to his duty and the duty Of the people,
no desire to warn US ofimpending danger
by nothing but wish to trick Judge Doug
las into an admission prejudicial to his in
terests shat this act was TRAP, and his
motive only to injure Douglas Does Mr..
Lamb consider this fair, honorable upright,
mauful, straight forward? viii the peo-
pie Of Virginia sustain it z The question,
we are sure, is needless. Wherever the
facts are known, wherever this paragraph
from the Argus is copied, and we trust it
may be everywhere copied. wherever these
words are read to the people, and We hope
they may be rung from every stump in the
State, the frank Virginia character will rise
up in manly reprobation Of the act, to
which no sharpness of invective could add
a drop of bitterness. Let it everywhere be
told, the hospitable welcome with which
great American statesman, staunch friend
Of the South, gallant, frank man and tried
Democrat, was met on first reaching the soil
of old Virginia, was THE TRAP OF A
BRECKENRIDGE ELECTORl
