ed Cairo some of them got the Bay City to go TO
St Loais but were put ashore on tie Missouri side,

WASHINGTON, June 26.-The speeches made last
night by Breckenridge, Lane, Toombs, and others,
indicate that the against Douglas is to be wEged
with unremitting bitterness.
We have not yet received ? sufficient number Of
papers from the South to determine how the cur
rent is running, but have no boubt soven-eighths
Of them viii support the Breckenridge ticket
The declinatiOn of Gov Fitzpatrick is a terrible
blow to the Douglas ticket. They fully calculated
upon his acceptance, as he has been understood as
heretofore seeking association with Douglas, and de-
string the nomination which he received. The South
ern pressure however was more than he could stand
and he gave way.
Forney gives Douglas Independent support,
which don't amount to much He will be fof TIM
coin before the end Of the campaign.
Gov. II. V. johnson Of Georgia, who accepts the
nomination for Vice President on the Douglas ticket
is an old ultra State Rights man. and 1 think was
secessiOnist in 1851 imagined shat his name viii
not add much force to the ticket as he has been
played out in Georgia in political sense for some
time. He narrowly escaped defeat the last time
he run for Governor, when he was opposed by Mr..
jenkins.
Altogether the Douglas men have abundant cause
for grief and they show it in their faces Mr.. Clus-
key of the National Committee has resigned, and
Pryor of Virginia and others who had sneaking in
clinatiOn for the Little Giant, have abandoned him
resolving to cast their fortunes with those Of their
section.
1t is now arranged that Douglas shall address the
Democracy at Atlanta, Ga, and Johnson stump the
State for him.
