Politics In White County,
~CAExz. April l., LEO.

Editors Pfe8s and Tdbuue:
Tho cause Of Republcauism in this county is
rapidly progressing. Duringth past fortnight
our Circuit Court has been in session, and large
numbers Of people hare been id attendance
from all parts Of the county. We have most
encouraging reports from every precinct. There
have been numerous accessions to our rauks
within the past six months. 4 great many old
Wings, who roted for Fillmore in 1856, sup
ported Douglas and Logan. But since thea
they have become heartily sickened and dis
gusted with the author Of the infamous sedition
bill, md Of "dirtywork Logan. If lie runs
again for Congress, there are hundreds Of men
who voted for him two years ago, who will uow
take pleasure in 1Iack.IaAing ahe miserable
douga-face. We have just learned that Logan
has rcted to sustain the Iormons in the teastl;.
and uuchristian practice Of polygamy. He will
find lots Of Democrats n. Q .: 1epudiate him
with eeorn aud contempt. ! the peopIe of the
other counties in this District felt as ours do,
he would be badly beaten for reelection. De-
cen. citizens feel dsyraced aud humiliatcd to be
represented ia the great Congress Of the na.
ton by such soulless specimen of 3 uan.
Resides scores Of old Wings who u1e joining
the Republican party in White county, there
are good many Democrats, moral, conscicn-
tious men, who cannot stand tha corrupt prac-
tees and Calhoun principles of their party any
longer. They despair Of any reformation, and
hare made up their minds to cut loose from this
1e:rogrsie party and join the only true Democ-

nominee Of the Charleston Convention, Lincoln
is our strongest man, if another than Douglas is

Col. G. II. CLA1: We have read your lette,

We suppose they are the deciptes OF Aaron Burr.
VIC we're also opposed to the opposition, in some

South OF the execution Of the lar against the

considerably different from those Of our Min
resota contemporary, re will not enter upon
a discussion Of that branch Of the case. We
will say simply that we suppose no man in his
senses would think Of referring the Prasiden-
tial nomination exclusively to the half dozen
doubtful States That would lie setting a
premium Oh minoritiez, and putting the ms
joritY States below par in tho business Of nom
inationz-a most fatal precedent to establish,
the obvious tendency Of which would be to
bring about minority in oil Tho Statas next
time. We intended to say, and we supposed
we had said with sufficient clsarness, that no
man should he nominated who could not got
votes enough to be elected. and that the ques-
ticn Of fact involved in tie proposition as
applied to any single candidate, is to be
determined mainly by the delegates from
Connecticut New Jersey, Pennsylvania,
Indiana, and Illinois. The reason for
this is too. obvious to need explanation.
At the same tins it would be utterly at vari-
ancs with the principles Of common sense,
con!saon justice aid common prudence to al
low tlisse States to name the particular can
didate for the whole party. The most they
can assume to do do will be to present to the
Convention q sufficient humber Of names Of
persons vino can secure their electoral votes
t. satisfy all sections and to meet the views Of
I'LL who believe VIC ara waglng a battle for
principles, not for men. In other words, their
power in the Convention will be OILY that Of a
negative. The nomination will still be made
br the Republican State..
