An EFFECTIVE DocUMKNT.-The "Record
Of STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS on the Slavery Ques-
ton" we believe to he one of the most effec-
tive documents Of the campaign. It traces,
step by step, his downward career from the
day when he proposed to prohibit slavery
.forsrer in the northern portion Of Texas
from the day when he declared the Missouri
Compromise "a sacred thing which no ruth
less hand would be reckless enough to dis
turb down to his endorsement Of the
Wickliffe (slave code) resolution of the Balti
more Convention. 1t should obtain the widest
possible circulation among the masses of both
parties. 1t places STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS, as
portrayed by himself, in the character Of an
apostate from the principles Of true Dcmoc-
racy, and an advocate Of the heresies of JOHN
G. CALHOUN. It may be obtained by ad-
dressing Hon. N. B. JUDD, Chicago, Him
ois," at the rate of one cent per copy, in large
or small quantities.

California.

Letters from San Francisco communicate
the intelligence that there is a strong proba-
bility Of that State going for Lincoln. Since
the death Of Broderick there has been gen.
eral disruption Of the Anti Lecompton De-
mocracy, and nine-tenths Of the party have
joined the Republicans. They are disguised
with the trucking to the slave power evinced
by Douglas ever since the meeting Of the
Charleston Convention. Thousands ofadop-
ted citizens, especially Germans, who have
uniformly voted the straight Democratic tick
ct, arc now members of the Republican Or
ganization. In San Francisco a Republican
Central Wide Awake Club has been formed,
which numbers it's members by thousands.
and throughout the interior of the State the
bone and sinew Of the country is rallying to
the standard of freedom. The present pros
pect is that Douglas has a majority of the old
Democracy; but in the end it is probable
that the federal office. holders, backed by the
chivalry party who killed Broderick, the pat
ronage of the Government, and all the coun-
-ty organizations in their hands, will beat
Douglas at the polls, while the Bell Everetts,
composed of Old Line Wings and Americans,
who for two years have opposed the Repuh-
licans and voted the Democratic ticket, will
draw enough from the strength of each ofthe
contending factions to give the State to Lin
coin. We have many assurances to that eff
feet; while Oregon is conceded by everybody
who has the slightest knowledge Of politics
on the Pacific cost.-Missouri Democrat.

No old man but prays every night that
