discussion at DanieIsvilIe.

GAINESVILLE, Aug. 25th, 1860.
MEssRs. EDIToRs:-I had the pleasure of witnessing
a triangular debate between Messrs. MCCAIN, HOUSE
and HAYwooD. By the time the hour had arriven
for the discussion to commence, very respectable
and attentive crowd had assembled consisting more
of Democrats less of Opposition and 10 and behold
not solitary DoUIAs man was in the crowd, to my
knowledge. except Mr.. MCCAIN. If he should re-
ceive no more encouragement elsewhere than he has
here, would not be surprised to hear at any time,
that he has abandoned the sinking fortunes of STE
PHEN A. DOUGLAS and united heart and soul IN the
support of the true Democratic ticket, BRECKENRIDGE
and LANE. Mr. MCCANN's speech, or whatever you
may call it. was the old story of GANCEY, IANCEY,
YANCEY. YANCEY first, YANCEY last 1ANCEY all the
time. The opponents of Democracy have cried dis
union in many canvasses that 1t has become like
the cry of wolf, wolf. The shepherds have heard
the false alarm of wolf so often from the same
source, that they put faith in what these unwor
thy servants tell them, but will still repose conf
dence in those Democratic sentinels who have so
long controlled the destnies of our own country and
never yet dissolved the Union.
Mr.. HOUSE Eext took the stand, and for one hour
and half he ratified the Opposition Bell ticked the
fancy of his hearers, sung the tune of disunion
and preached the funeral of JAMES BUCHANAN. The
sermon was delivered with power and demonstra-
ton. listened to with prayerful attention, and re-
ceiyed with rapturous enthusiasm by the members
Of the Oppostion Church. Whether the speaker
really felt that he had the love of God shed abroad
in his heart or not do not pretend TO say but its
evident that he had the fear of TANcEY in his soul
Mr.. House is fluent speaker, and an able debater,
unfolding the banner of his party with an ability
and a zeal worthy better cause
Mr.. HOUSES speech was made up principally OF
the same charges that were made throughout this
district last summer by Gen. QuARIES when he was
running for Congress. Extravaganza and corrup-
ton seasoned with YANCEY and Disunion But not
withstandlng all this, predict, that on tie first
Tuesday of November, this same political Minister,
JONI f. HOUSE, will finally fall from grace, never to
be renewed again unto repentance, seeing that he
has crucifed JOIN BELL afresh and put him to an
open shame. Mr.. HAYwOOD next addressed the
crowd. | assure you, that the cause is by means
likely to suffer in his hands, He met the arguments
of his competitors with an ability and an ardor
that rivited conviction upon the minds of his audi
tory. He spoke ike sent forth to proclaim
equal rights and equal protection in the States and
in the Territories, guaranteed to each and every
citizen in the country, By the Constitution as ex
pounded and declared by the Supreme Court of the
United States Mr.. HAYwooD exhibits thorough
knowledge of the history of parties, the relative

SHELBYvnLE, Aug. 80, 1861
MEssRs EDITORS I'm your weekly issue of the
9th inst. l am represented by correspondent
writing from this place over the signature of a. One
of the Voters" as having used this language IN a
speech made by me on the 18th inst: Sc would
surrender every thing for its THE Unions preserva
tion yes all the negroes in America and Africa too
rather than dissolve it
This is very gross perversion of what said
and l desire just enough space in your columns to
set myself right What said on that occasion was
in substance this That 1 regarded the Union
above all price; that its value could not be reckoned
in dollars and cents that it lCOrh more than all
the negroes in America and Africa toO and to guard
against Misrepresentation. went on to say, that
was unwilling to yield our negroes to please the
North. and that if they attempted to coerce us to
Tberate them was for resisting to the bitter end
that then l would be for going, not out of the
Union but going out in blaze ofglory, fighting for
our rights in the UniOn-that l did not believe 1t
practicable if ourselves desired it, TO abol-
ish slavery and retain the race among us-that II
was impossible for the white race to regard and
treat the negro an equal"
Ny speech on that occasion was rejoinder to one
made by Mr.. MATHEWS on the Monday before, and in
addition to the foregoing also used this ilustra
ton, to prevent its being inferred implied that
was willing to surrender
said, suppose A. says tc B. that your horse is
worth S2OO-would B. have the right In this law
and order country to jump on \. and make him
fork over the $500"
There are other minor Misrepresentation by
Zone of the Voters" but as they were designed
simply to dsparage me and puff his friends, deem
it unimportant to the Union Party of which am an
humble member to notice them.
Very respectfully yours, &c, LEWIS THEMAN.

position Of each, and is well posted upon all the
great questions involved In the present canvass,
makes good impression wherever he goes, and
sustains the position the true Democratic party ably
and manfully, and has aroused spirit of enthusi-

The Blaze i'm Warren Runs Higher.
MESsRs. EDrroRs Last Wednesday was our cleo
tors day in McMnnviIle where very large num-
Der of the citizens of old Warren assembled to hear
the issues of the country debated. It turn out
of the honest, thinking men of the country of all
parties, not to rally, but TO satisfy themselves to
who are the proper men to cast their votes for in
the coming election. Col. STANTON led of and for
the first fifteen minutes he spoke OF parties general
ly, mentioning at the outset that he was for Mr.
BELL and his platform. He then took up Mr.. DOuG-
LAS and in burning appeals for about thirty minutes
he strove with the Democracy convince them that
it was their boundeu duty to support him for the
Presidency, he being the regular nominee. We are
fully satisfied that this was clear loss of the Colo
ners precious time. He then devoted to YANCEY
and dissuaiOn another half hour, and closed.
COL MURRAY then followed in speech of an hour
and half showing so clearly that Col. S. had not
touched the issues, that it ,..ai to be seen in
the eountenances of our OPPOSITE. friends that they
were by no means enjoying it. He spent few
minutes in the outset in giving the history of all
parties and then presented the record of BELL and
EVERETT to the satisfaction of ALL showing that BELL
had been for and against almost everything except
Office, and that he had been for that all the time
He satisfied the people that if YANcEY desires dis
solution of the Union, and was candidate for the
Presidency, that then he is better Union man than
/ BELL
Without attempting to give the particulars of Col
Ms speech we will simply state that his most san
guine friends were than pleased with the
manner in which he defends the true cause of de-
mocracy.
The opposition are at their old game of heaping
up abuse. They have cried YANCEY and disGnioR in
this region till they find there is nothing to be gain
ed at that and they have concluded, they wills
per among themselves that the best policy is not tC
defend BELL at ALL and just turn loose one onslaught
of abuse on the democracy. They may succeed in
cutting loose democrats in this way. but if they dc
they will have to leave the mountain district. for a
more united democracy has never been known here
than it Is now and we are not Dragging, but viii
prove our words by our works in November.

The Banner proposes to discuss the soundness or
unsoundness of Mr.. BELL on the slavery question
with us publishing the Banners articles in his
defence, and it publishing on the other side.
The articles to be published twice a week and not
to exceed two columns in length.
We beg leave to be excused. We have already
pretty thoroughly ventilated Mr.. BELLS record not
only upon the slavery question but upon many 9TH
ers on which he has acted during his long public ca
reer While we shall perhaps from time to time refer
to points made in former articles ave cannot de-
vote our columns to immediate republication of
them Nor can we devote our space to the Ban
ners attempts to justify him for his political ncon-
sstencies or malfeasance.

The Cumberland (Maryland) GciHdn is the third
BELL and EVERETT paper inIthat State which openly
prefers LINCOLN to any other candidate than its own
1t says
We are not ignorant of the fact that there exits in
this county very warm sympathy for the election
of Mr.. Lincoln in preference to any Democrat, not
only upon the part of the naturalized citizens, but
also among the native born who are opposed to the
Democracy. This sympathy might lead them to vote
the Republican ticket, if by so doing the sham De-
mocracy could be beaten in the State but knowing
this cannot be effected they intend to vote for Bell
and Everett, for the great-the predominant the
ruling and controlling sentiment of our peope is for
the defeat Of the Democracy-frst by Bell and Ever

The Washington States now under the control and

absurd story that Chief Justice fancy is a. an ear.
nest advocate of the election of Mr.. Douglass This
story is utterly false The venerable Chief Justice
is not the 'earnest advocate of Mr.. Douglas cleo
ton" nor even quiet supporter of his pretensions
Judge fancy, with that true dignity and propriety
which has ever marked his course has taken no
active part in political affairs since he has accepted
his present high position, and it would be utterly
impossible for him to sustain Mr.. Douglas in his
direct opposition to the recorded opinions OF the
court and to his individual opinions rendered in
the bred Scott case. We speak ddUiSedy, lohea zee
emphaticaly contradict The assertion Of the Douglas
organ in this matter. If Chief Justice fancy votes

The Memphis Aralanche of Friday last sa,

| The Memphis AcGdHcbe OF FRIDAY last says:
| The appeal has been hobnobbing with the Oppos
| ton party for some time, but it seems the gentle
dalliance is about to be severed. The friends OF
Bell have been feeding neighbOr with the sweet
est sugar plums and the softest sort of barney
They opened wide the doors of their dens and rock

nibbling at the poisonous bait we expected to see
the mash trap close down on them, but it seems
they have detected the snares, and now desert
ing it with the instincts of danger that rats de-
sert a burning barn. 1t affords us unspeakable
pleasure to announce that the Appeal will not fuse
with the supporters of Bell We make the follow
ing extract from article in the appeal OF yester-
day:
In supporting Mr.. Bell what guarantee have you
that, in the event Of his election, the Government
will be administered according to this that line
of policy? You may reply that you contide IN the
broad craftsmanship of Mr.. Bella craftsmanship AS
broad as his platform and as non-committal. We
acknowledge to long record of questionable char
acter but this is poor guarantee to the future.
la politics. it is the part Of wisdom to demand the
bond.
Now, we believe that if all the conservative
Union element were to unite upon one electoral
ticket it would be triumphant, but for the
above given, Mr. Bell cannot receive the suffrage of
the men who honest IN their convictions that all
the just powers of Government are derived from
the consent of the governed He presents no bond
