How the Betting Runs-The Douglas Men
CaVing.
Especial Dispatch to the New York Herald.]


| Especial Dispatch to the New York Herald.1
WASHINGTON, June "a.
The ring dispute between the 'wo candi-
dates of the kilkenny party in hotels and on
the street is exceedingly amusing. Of
course the Douglas men declare he will car
ry the country, absurd as it may seem.
Douglas chief fugleman was taken down to
day by a California Breckenridge man. The
former declared that Douglas would carry
every State in the South except Mary
land, Georgia, Kentucky and Tennessee,
which the Breckenridge ticket would give to
Bell and Everett. The Californian offered
to bet the sanguine Douglaste one hundred
dollars that he could not name four States
in the Unicn Douglas would cary. The
challenge was not accepted. California is
considered certain for Breckenridge and Lane.
In the last contest in that State, the Ad-
miuistration beat Douglas ad the Republi-
cans about twenty thousand votes.
Considering i, is sunday betting runs high
here to day Mr. w. distinguished Penn.
syvanian asserted that Douglas would carry
that State by $4,000 majority. Mr.. b., all
equally distinguished Brecknridge man
from Massachusetts, offered to bet one dol
lar on each vote tlat he would not. The
Douglasite caved. An Oregonan boosted
that Douglas would carry Oregon. A
Breckinridge man offered to bet Il at Breck-
iuridge and Ian. would carry more OF their
States than Douglas and johnson would Of
theirs. Douglastes refused. An IIinoisan
offered to be, $40 900 that Douglas would
carry Illinois. An Ohio Republican accept
ed the bet, and proposed to put up forfeit
ure Of 81 900 until to morrow when the re-
mander would be deposited; but lllinoissr
thought he saw rail, and declined. An
NJ q. of New York, offered to bet an in
definite sum that Doug las would carry hi.
State, wheleupon Mary ylander Breckn-
ridge man said he would bet $4,000 that
Lincoln would carry Illinois and New York.
New York backed down. These are not
only specimens of the kind of betting that
has been going on here to-day, but it is sin
guarly true that it is true rehsx e., Of ,iAAss SiAss
conf lan.o .,:f '7
fUf ppiiieif favorite candidates.
1t is evident frm the expressions Of tho
Breckenridge men that they are in earnest
and intend to make a vigorous campaign,
backed by the hearty support of the Ad
minstra,on. From present appearances it
is difficult to perceive where the squatter
sovereignty candidate can secure single
electoral vote.
The Placer herald., 1860-07-28
Now as Then.

1t has been often charged that Mr.. Bu-
chanan had deserted the Cincinnati platform;
that the doctrine held by him and the Dem
ocra,ic party, that the appropriate time for
tho people Of Territory to decide wheth
er they would have slavery or not, was
when they came to form a constitution
preparatory to being admitted into the
Uni,n, was contrary to the Cincinnati plat
form, contrary to his pledges to the people,
and an abandonment of the principles of the
Democratic party. Well, lot US see how the
how the matter stands. Let us see who has
abandoned the true faith In Mr. Buchan-
ans Inaugural address, delivered upon the
very day that he took his seat rs President
he referred to this subject in language that
cannot be misunderstood. lie said. "a
difference OF opinion has arisen in regard to
the point Of time when the people Of
Territory shall decide this question (of sla-
very) for themselves. This is, happily,
matter OF but little practical Importance.
Besides, it is judicial question, which To-
ultimately belongs to the Supreme Court of
the United States before whom it is now
pending and will, i. is understood, be speed
lily and finally settled To their decision, in
common with all good citizens shall cheer.
fully submit, whatever this may be, though il
has ever been my individual opinion, that un-
der the Nebraska Kansas Act, the appropriate
period wiU be wAen tie Number of actual res
idents in tie Territory shall JUSTIFY the for
mataon of a Constitution NTH vieU to III
admission as a State into the Uuion." This
WAS Mr.. Buchanan's Interpretation of the
Kansas Nebraska Act when he was elected.
This individual opinion was in consonance
with the Cincinnati platform, which asserss
"the right of the people Of all the Territor
les, including Kansas and Nebraska, acting
through the legally and fairly expressed will
of a majority OF actual residents and aohen
ever the number of their Inhabitants justify 1t,
to form Constitution With or Without do
mestic sluUery and be admitted into the Uniou
upon terms Of perfect equality aoiM the other
States. This is an unequivocal assertion
that the proper time to settle the question
Of slavery in the Territories is when the
people come to frame a Constitution. The
position assumed by Mr.. Buchanan in his
inaugural WAS, therefore, not only in conson-
ance with the Cincinnati platform, but was
acquiesced in by the entire party. The de.
cison OF the Supreme Court in the Dred
Scott case, to which he referred, sustained
Mr.. Buchanan. He has, therefore acted with
entire consistency, and has carried out
Democratic doctrines, rs understood when
he was elected. Those who have departed
from this doctrine, have deserted Democrat
ic principles, while Mr.. Buchanan stands
firmly by them.
