DOUGLAS. GEORGIA.
From the Chicago Press and Tribune.

While the Chicago Times is laboriug
zealously to convince the people of the
North w estern States that Mr.. Douglas
is more uncompromisiugly hostile to the
extension Of Slavery than the most ultra
Republican in the nation, it is well enough
to bear in mind that gentleman's own
declaration, recently made in the I. S.
Senate, that he had been instrum entail in
planting Slavery in New Mexico, terri
tory five times as large as the State of
New York; that his associate on the tick
ct for Vice President, is in favor of
Slave Code, for the Territories, for the
--r IL sc 49, r--.>L :L:.:---I- - Af:---.i
Slave trade, and in favor Of capital owning
labor; and that Mr.. Douglas supporters
at the South are made up of the most ul
ira of the pro Slavery, fllibustcring and
Cuba-stealins crew of that section.
We have before US a copy Of the South
ern Contederacy, published at Atlanta,
Ga, of the 9th inst.-one of the two pa
pers of that State which support Douglas
and johnson. The editor announces his
position in the following language:
"THE NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC Nom
NEEs.-To,day we hoist the ticket of the
National democratic party. For veal or
for woe, we shall support with all our
heart the great representatives for the
Presidency, and che Vice Presidency
Stephen \. Douglas, of Illinois, and Her
schel Y. johnson, of Georgia. In pur-
suing this course we are conscious of the
justice of the policy, the correctness of
the purpose, and that we are engaged in
the espousal Of those principles tie main
ta'nance ofrhich are the only guarantees
OF our present system Of goyernment."
What those principles are, B" the main
tenancc of which are the only guarantees
of our present system of government, ="
and which can only be maintained by the
election of Douglas and johnson. the
Cont:deracy states, in the same issue as
follows:

deprIvating, degrading, insulting, an
grevously sectional in legislation to tn

aged subservieucy and demagogueism i,
our midst, with their eoncomitant evi,
incident in the moral degeneracv Of
proud and noble people. If these res
trlctlons and compromises can be vine,
from the Statute book, and the Govern
men' administered in its original purity
with strict regard to economy and re
