parties, There are four presidential candidates in
the field. suppose they will do one another JUS

men are likely to get at the truth. The telegraph
says that Mr.. Gwinn las an almost Kilkenny-cat
encounter with James Buchanan, and Will, there
is such loving fellowship between the different
branches of the Democratic party, think we had
better commend them all to Kilkenny-cat victo-

friends are in the field. to stand By and help; and
presume they IooE upon the fght Us did the good
woman who saw her husband and the bear in such
close proximity. (Llughter.)
The Republican party has power over the con.
science of the cOuntry which no other party ever
possessed. Why /. was delightful to hear the
most radical and ultra auti-savery sentiments
uttered by our friend Wilson the most loudly ap-
plauded. l told Mr.. Wilson, last summer, that
the Republican party would do we'll enough if it
were not for those nightmare politicians who had
lighted upon its breast. Now, he stands up here
and uters thoroughgoing Garrisonian antslave-
ry, and they applaud him very highly for it.
do not believe that beautiful tree designating one
of the finest in the grove is sOunier at heart
than most Republicans are the only trouble is,
that there is a pressure Of tme-servers and trim:
mers on the top of it, and its throbbng pusations
are prevented. Now, if Mr.. Wilson and Mr..
Sumner would come to our platform and preach
this kind of antslavery to the people, they would
have to say of us and them just we have now to
say of them and Stephen A. Douglas and his
friends, Really, they much alike, we do not
any difference between thetn;' and here day,
if you had not seen his face. you would not have
known whether it vas Senator Wilson or Mr..
Quincy or Mr.. Foster talking that strong anti
slavery. But here is where the difficulty lies
and it is a very serious difficulty. Our friend Mr..
Wilson, talks here Garrisonian anti-slavery-I
thank him for it; and whenever 60 abroad among
his constituency, shall tell them 1t is perfectly
safe for you to come TO our tlatform, for Mr. Will
son has been there, and wherever he may go, you
may;' but here is the diaicultS-in talking about
Mr.. Lincoln ten or eleven years ago, we overlook,

POLITICAL ITEMS.

AFTER THE MANNER OF THE REPUBLICAN PAPERS
BKECKINRIDGE IN PowDUNK.-Animmense Brek-
hridge meeting was held in Powdunk the eve
ming of the 10th. The democrats of Powdunk
utterly repudiate the miscreant Douglas and his
bumbug Squatter Sovereignty failacy. The Post
master of Powduuk having refused to admit that
Douglas is aH Internal rascal, is to be instantly
removed, and sound conservative democrat ap-
pointed in his place.
Our FOR BRECKINRIDGE AND LANE-G. w. Sill
kins. Of SpunGville who at frst was rather favor
bly, disposed to the Little Giant, and who in
speech last week characterized Mr.. Douglas as the
brilliant and peerless statesman Of the West, now
says Mr. D. is a cod-5looded monster and trai-
tor to his country Mr.. Slikins who is life long,
c nsisent and able democrat. has declared for
Breckenridge and 10. Lane, the Marion Of the
Mexican war.
GEN. Jo LANt.-The democratic papers of Ore
gon say there isn't doub: about that State going
for Breckinrlge and Lane Gen. lane, it will be
remembered, lives 10 Oregon. lie is aptly called
the Mexican of the Marion war.
A HoAx.-The report extensively published by
the Douglas papers that John Jonsing Postmaster
NJ DCuuIfllei udu CUu6 Oub lOT Dbupldd, IS pro
nounced an unrttigated hoa3. The veteran demo-
crat says he will never cast vote for Douglas
while he has q drop Of blood in his veins, or at
least long he retains the Scumvlle pos. office.
The Breckenridge and Lane movement is certainly
becoming formidable Perhaps our readers are
not aware that Gen. Lane is the Mexican of the
Marion war, but such is the case.
CAN'T Go DoUGLAs.-The Kinkleville Boiler; a
paper of terrific circulation, has placed at its mast
head the names of Breckenridge and Lane 1t
must be admitted that this tcke: is raising per-
feet whirlwind of enthusiasm. 1t is well known
that Gen. 10. Mexico Is the Carton of the lane
war, and no one can doubt but that Kentucky will
stand chivalrousIy by her Shirering son. The Dou-
glasites lcok glum.
JAS. BUCHANAN.-This spotless and incorrupta-
Bile statesman has formally declared for Breckin-
ridge. 1t is we'll known that g6 was strongly in
favor of Douglas, and only abandons him because
he sees the Little Giant has no chance. Mr.. Bu-
chanan is fue man and very honest man. If
his name was Abraham or Abigail he would be
called Honest Old Abe.
1t will be seen by these items, WHICH are good
deal more reliable than those published by the
republican papers in the Breckenridge interest,
how the political feline jumps.-PIain Dealer,

THE METHODIST"

IA paper has recently been started inNew York
City bearing the nbcve title It's character in re-
iation to anti.slavcry is indicated by the following
extract from an article the Baltimore Confer
epcc, rha from phssage from former editorial
defining its position.
''In this unhappy controversy between brethren
beloved we are able to truth and propriety and
safety on one side only. The conservatives of the
North who stood with Baltimore, aye, and fell with
her too in the recent struggle, who wish again to
stand with her in battling against unscripturai
extremes on both sides, much they deprecated
any disturbance of the Discipline or slavery, and
earnestly as they wrought with the Border to pre-
veEt this, still agree with the majority Of the Bal
timore delegates and contend that the restrictions
of the Chapter on slavery have been greatly relax.
ed By the change it has undergone. No matter
what editors may say, the General Conference
itself by direct and almost unanimous vote, has
placed it's meaning beydnd the possibility of cavil,
except, at least, by the most perverse and despe-
rate logcians.
"The General Conference has declared that the
New Chapter, unlike the old one is not a statute,
not law, but opinion and advice. This was
manifestly true, even if tho Conference had not
bald it; for the effort to change the law had failed,
and nothing was left, nothing was within reach
but advice. Nothing more could have been done.
BECAUSE, under the circumstances, the body had
power to do nothing more; and yet fearing that a
wild, Southern Interpretation or even the Supreme
Court might affx to their action the meaning and
force Of law, they passed separate resolution,
denying as clearly as language could, any such
meaning. If, therefore, members Of the majority
of the late General Conference, whether welding
private or official pens, shall attempt by crcumo-
cutions or implications, to give to this New Chap
ter the force of law we will correct them by their
own record and remind them that the design OF
Language, at feast as used by Christian ministers,
is not to conceal but honestly TO express thought.
We ore at no loss for the explanation Of such q
course; it is found in simply remembering the ma
tural an laudable desire of tho leaders TO render
their cha pter palatatle to tho stronger s:omachs OF
the party, AID to demonstrate 10y the most skilful
clerical and logical cookery that there is taste in
She white of an egg"
''It accepts the late action OF the General Con-
ference on slavery, as defined by tha Conference
and understood by the Border delegates, as final
ty; it proposes peace this su ject hereafter $50
far as the internal strife is concerned) but will
vigianty oppose the revival of the partisan agita-
tion of the question; and as the next Genera! Con-
ference approaches, will he ready to oppose any
attempt at new disturbances of tho kind"
