Beg" We desire to give the Journal no
tice, that on Monday night next, there will
be the largest crowd of such of our citizens
as he denominates g black guards out, in
procession, that he ever saw. Many of
them, no doubt, will have their checked
shirts on, and but few, if any will have
anything finer. We give him and the Re
publican party of this city, notice in time
SO that if they do not desire to have their
more refined feelings hurt, by seeing the
working men of the city aud county, acting
for themselves, they may keep housed on
that occasion. Enqaerer l Ith.
What tconsummate demagogues our neigh
bors would make-if they only had the
ability. Providence has placed in them
the low, groveling, cunning instincts ct their
leader-Douglas- has wisely Withheld
the smartness requisite to make frst-ciass
demagogues of them, else they would he
dangerous 'customers.'
If the Douglas men will have the decency
and good taste to turn out tonight without
the lying and scurrilous transParencies
which they carried on last Saturday night
week, and will keep sober and behave them
selves no person will enjoy their harmless
pastimes of marching and shouting for their
Idol more than the Lincoln men. It is en-
tirely proper and commendable for them to
muster as big a crowd as possible, carry as
many lamps as they can, display multtudes
of flags, badges, and th-telLlag and decent
transparencies, and all that. OF this there
will be no complaint. But if they desire to
retain the epithet of "Black Guards which
they have incuTHd by past misconduct, let
them again carry the disgraceful transpar-
ences of the 4th of August, and that de-
grading appelation will cling to them like
the shirt of Nessus, and they cannot tear it
off.

30 The Mount Carmel Register says, in
So Lincoln had majority over Douglas,
of about five thousand votes but there
was DANTE vote of about five thousand
and six hundred which, added to Douglas
vote, gave the combined opposition to Re-
publicanism a majority Of six hundred.
The DANTE vote that was cast then, will
this fall be cast for Breckenridge, which,
granting that Douglas and Lincoln t the
identical vote that they got in 50, will leave
Lincoln a majority of five thousand votes.
But be will get greater majority. Since
1858 there has been an influx of population
into Illinois of at least ten thousand voters.
This immigration has been chiefly from the
middle and eastern States. Aboul eight thous-
and of the ten thousand are Republicans,
and will vote for Abe Lincoln. Besides,
there has been gain in Egypt of ten thous-
and, at the lowest figures. Now, add all
these gains to LincoIns vote in '5S, and he
will have a snug majority over Douglas, in
November next, of twenty thousand votes.
This is the way that Douglas will carry Il

BEg@ The Enquirer says that Lieut.. Gov.
Hammond has abandoned political speak
ing on account of i'll health. This may be
so but we know enough of Abe Hammond
to believe that.he is getting tired of making
Douglas speeches for pure glory" He
knows the Republicans " hold too good a
hand a" that they have ali the "trumps," :"
and that the game is against him. Hence
he draws off-throws up the game. If 10.
Lane gets to be President, we venture that
Abe Hammond will be in the q safe line for
promotion" He is a cunning fox-more so
than Willard, Beach, VOORHEES,, and such
tyros in political +" euchre"

Bag~ 1t seems that Governor Willard
and Supreme Court Clerk Beach are expect
ed to preach Douglasism here tonight. 1t
has not been long since both these gentle
men were fighting Douglas and his friends
savagely. Gov. w had hard time getting
a seat in the I1th of January State Conren-
ton on account of his Lecomptonism. In
the memorable State Convention of 1853 he
was President ,and acted very unjustly to-
ward the Anti-Lecomptonites They cursed
him fearfully.
Does anybody believe Messrs. Willard,
Beach, Voorhees,, & Co. are sincere friends OF
Douglas? No; they want to throw the
election into Congress and elect Joe Lane.
They made no secret of their hate for Doug
las less than six months ago they cannot
now be in love with him, as they pretend.
1t is impossible.
