each OF Inc tHo Breat Sec%lous ol ltie Oulour
land Lincoln may b defeated" The Herald is
very sure that there is no other way in which
the defeat Of Lincoln can bs secured, and i
thinks that, even with this now programme.
tile result would be somewhat uncertain. Hut
itdocs not doubt tllatthe three sets o! cand1'
dates named will checrfully withdraw TO pre-
vent 80 dire disaster to the country rs their
respective friends persist in asserting the cleo
tion Of Lincoln would prove. 1--WE assume''
continues the Herald, THAT with each ofthe seT-
"en men aforesaid party is nothing; personal
"disappointments, prjudices ard sacrifices
"are nothing; md the empty husks OF party
"absuactiops are nothing, weighed in the
"balance against the Union. Furthermore,
"Lincoln's election, with his new programme,
twill ipaugurate new epoch and new or
"der Of things, under which ell these outside
"ca.didates leaders and parties OF this dny
twill be submerged Consequently i Brock
s.iuridge and Lane, Douglas and johnson,
"Bell acd Everett and Houston would bo
"heard Of after this election, they will move
"uow, as VIC have indicated, to turn it IN the
fright direction 10 save the day" We take
it for granted thst all these gentlemen are
more or less patriotic, and that they desire
to be heard Of again; consequently it is not
to be doubted that they will follow the advice
Of the Herald! The only questions to be de-
cided is when and where shall this "nico lit"
tie Convention Of ei1" OF, perhaps, sever, be
held, aud who will be placed upon the "jolns
stock ticket" The Herald will be cruel if it
keeps the public long in suspense.
nBEmLIN FoR BKECKlNH1DGE.
Hox. CaAs. REEN1E Of Cincinnati, has an
rounced himself for Dreckinridge md Lane.
He made an elaborate speech at Carthage,
Ohio, the other day, in which he t5ok similar
ground to that occupied BY Chas. OConner
Of New York. He holds that the Constitution
recognizes properly in man; that the slave
holder has perfect right to take his slaves
into the Territories and is entitled 70
slave code for. his protection LIE
ridicules Squattcr Sovereignty, and shows
that Douglas himself does not believe in it
Reamlin says that the Douglas faction will be
shortlived, and are even now taking refuge
in the Know Nothing party. After this cam
pa'gn, the oaly Democracy which will be let
will be the Dreckinridge wing, which has the
fifteen elaye States to back it. 4 portitn ol
the Popular Sovereignty Democracy will join
the Republicans; another portion will merge
with the Know NolhiuE, aud the residue
the regular hard shells-w1l fill back upon
the Southern Democracy for support and com
| fort.
Reemlin is not far estray in his prognostl
cations as to the future Of the Douglas faction
| Having but little strength in tic slave States
it will gradually gravitato towards the Know
Nothings, WHO are the Opposition in th'
South, and make common cause with then
against the fre-eaters. The difference be
tween the Know Nothings and the fire-eater
is something like this: The latter threate1
togo out Of the Union unless they get slav'
code. The former resolve to stay in tn
Union as the only way Of Oh taiuing it. Boil
are equally in favor Of Federal Intervention
in behalf Of slavery. The Douglas and Bel
men at tic South might be properly calle'
Slave Code Unionists; and the Breckinridg
and Lane men, the Slave Code Disunionists
I The platform Of each is the same they difle
only in the mode to be adopted to put thei
principles in practice.
