former BELL man, brother Of violent Know
Nothing, aleader in Meury county, Tenn, writing
US from Florida for club Of Subscribers says ave
need your paper here 1t opened my eyes to the true
BELL and EYERErr record, and it never fails to do
the work with men seeking to know the truth and
follow after it. You may put down little Florida for
BREcK and LANE at 500 or 1900 majority, and we
viii elect our State ticket certainly used to fight
against your party, but see clearly that yours
Is the only drive-baek against northern aggression.
Hove to honor your principles as enuncaed in your
platform
From friend sending for tie paper at Hampshire,
we learn "The prospects are quite encouraging for
BREcxISRDGE and LANE in this part Of the political
vineyard. The DouGLAsTEs are quite scarce in these
parts as one is all know of for miles around
ASood Democrat writing from Roane county, says:
IF there is anything in the sigma Of the times DouG-
LIS and BELL will run close together for there is
many of the Opposition following for DOUGLAS as for
BELL l know of but one Democrat in this county
for DoUGLAs. and can assure you the enthusiasm Is
high for BRICK. and LANE"
From jackson we get the gratifying news, "our
county is all right for BREBkNRIDGE and LASx
Your paper is doing good work in this section
Roll on the ball"
A friend at Vancouver, Washington Territory send
ing for our paper says" Il used to live in Middle Ten
nessee, and have never voted Democratic vote be
fore, but shall hereafter vote with You. l wan
your paper-it gives out the true doctrines, and
as patriot see my duty and intend to do it regard
less of all old party ties, and you may put dowI
Oregon as sure for BKEcKINRDGE and LANE. Ivan

EVERETT by 10000 majority
A friend sending for documents from Goodnlsn's
Depot. Miss, says: "BREcKlNRIDGE will beat BELL
and DOUGLAS both together in Mississippi though the
BELL party s very anxious to have the Democrats
vote for DOUGLAS. 1 tell you, DOUGLAS and BELL
won't go down with the people of Mississippi"
From our friend at Salisbury, Tenn, we learn
"DoUGIAsIsN is growing beautifully less every day
PoIKs speech here, eheered by BELLrites, opened
the eyes Of many here, hitherto mised by the design
| ing tricksters. Democrats here think strange o.
PoLK's working side by side and evidently for the
success of JOHN BELL, the lifelong enemy and abuse
of his brother, President Polk We can't forget tina
JOHN BELL said james K Polk Das alike destitute
private honor and public principle We Democrat
here want to know how Col W. H. Polk can swal
low this before he is willing, by helping DOUGLAS, Il
give the State to BELL"
A No. Democrat, at Paducah, Ky. in sending
for documents adds: Kentucky is all right fol-
BRECKINRIDGE and LANE The DOUGLAS men are see
ing the issues and the effect of voting for DOUGLAS
are coming crevery day to BRECKENRIDGE and LANE
The DoULAs men here colcede will carry the FRS
District by SOGO and think we will carry the Stat
by handsome majority"
A good Democrat, writing from Woodlawn says
POLITICALLY, are doing well in this county. TIT
number of DOUGLAS men is smaI-not more thai
thirty, all told-and even that small number is grad
ually diminishing before the power of truth and the
force of argument. The Democracy IF MOntgom-
cry determined to do their duty in the impending
contest and quite soft enough to be caught il
the DOUGLAS trap, though it be both skifully
temptingy baIted."
friend writing for the paper and for document
from Georgia, says: THE BELL men here speak con
fdently OF carrying Tennessee. Is there any dan
ger that she will now endorse her repudiated Sena
tor that toas' Georgia is as sure for BRECKNRIDGE
and LANE as is South Carolina. We will carry
Georgia by large majority over both wings of the
Opposition"
In answer 10 our Georgia friend we state that
Tennessee in our opinion will go for BRECKTNRIGE and
LANE by handsome majority. She is too jealous Of
her consistency to support him whom she has so of
ten fepudidted.
An old Democrat of Oklahoma Miss. says Send
| me your truly orthodox paper. The political heaY
ems are clear here, and we are all for BRECIK
RIDGE and LANE. DOUGLAS will not be known in til,
race here. Quite number of Wings here are go
ing for BRECKENRIDGE and LANE
Our excellent friend w. writing to renew his
subscription at Jacksboro', Campbell county, says
BRECKENRIDGE and LANE will get the Democratic
vote of this county with but few exceptions. There
were some disposed to go for DOUGLAS until WHIT
THoRNE made his speech. They all went home per
fectly satisfied with standard bearers. The rea
Democrats of this county don't make much fuss, but
when the day comes they are found at their posts
and that is the time to make themselves heard
We are gratifed to hear from Hardeman county
that large numbers of the DOUGLAS men are now go
ing heart and hand for BREcKNRIDGE and LANE We
hope to hear still better from there and else
where IN West Tennessee. Keep the ball rolling anC
be right
