The Breckenridge organ feels trou-
bled aud out Of sorts as ii looks over its
spectaclcs and observes the. Douglas
hosts in Georgia arising in their might
and pressing forward to victory. 1t
has exhausted all its efforts IN irving to
discolor affairs in the South, and now
turns its attention to manufacturing
canarls and publishing them as the bona
.fde language OF Southern papers which
have come out boldly for Douglas and
the Union. 1t pirates about the incon-
sistency OF those papers. Gracious
hoavens,when such papers as the Brcck'
inridge organ of this city, commence,
to talk about consistency or hone sty then
indeed have matters come to q strange

The Iowa Democracy.

To the true Democrat, it is highly
gratifying to observe the truly sanguine
and determined manner in which the gal
liant Democracy of Iowa, are entering up
on the coming contest. Not less than a
hundred Democratic clubs have been
formed in the state within the past three
or four weeks, speakers without number
are ready and waiting to go into the
field. Mass meetings arc being held
and rare enthusiasm prevails all over the
State. This is what we like to see.-
The Republicans arc SO confident of hav-
ing everything Their own way, that it
would do them good to get a sound
thrashing this Fall, as they uudoubtod-
ly will.
On the western slope, fires are burn.
ing brightly, and even the former regu-
lars Of the opposition are being carried
away with the Douglas crowd. News
from the interior from north and south,
of Democratic raIlyings and pole rails
ings, is pouring in with every mail
The political aspect Of Iowa is fast un-
dergoing change. Douglas and vic
tory is now the universal cry from east
to west-from prairie to prai.ie, from
village to village all over the State. All
hail t. the gallant and spirited Democ-
Iacy of Iowa.
