in reply, said that this was all true.
aud that bis whole object in getting
into this Convention was that be

A. Douglas, as this was the only way,
in bis judgment, TO destroy and ruin
his ole foe--tbe Democracy. Not

SHARP PRACTICE.

A week or two ago four creditors
started fsom Boston in the same
tram Of cars for the purpose Of
attaching The property Of q certain
debtor in Pennington, Maine. He
owed each enc separately, and they
each were suspicious of the object Of
the other, but dared not say q word
about il. So they rode acquaintan.
ces alI,talking upon every thingexcept
that which they had most at heart.
When they arrived at the depot at
Farmington,w which was three milesfrom
where the debtor did business, they
found nothing but solitary cab,
toward which they all rushed. Three
got in and refused admittance to the
fourth and the cab started. The fourth
ran after and mounted upon the out
side with the driver. He asked the
driver If he wanted to sell his horse,
Hereplied that be was not worth more
than City dollars, but would not sell
him for that. He asked him if be
would take one hundred dollars for him!
"Yes," said he. The "fourth man"
quickly paid over the money, took
the reins, and backed the cab up to
"a bank, slipped it from the harness,
and tipped it up SO that the door
could not be opened, and jumped up
on the horses back and rode of, while
the 'insiders" were looking out OF
the window. He rode 10 lawyers
and got. a writ made and served,
and his debt seepr, d, and got back
I'd the hotel just as the ''insiders
came up putting and blowing. The
cabmac soon bought back his horse
for fifty dollars. The "sold" men
offered TO pay The sum if the fortu-
nate enc who found property suffi-
eisnt to pay bis OWE debt, would not
tell Of it in Boston.

The Douglas Movement.

The Cleveland Banner, paper
which earnestly advocated the nom
ination Of Mr.. Douglas, appeals to
its Democratic friends in this State
to pause and reflect as to what's to be
the result of their efforts to get up
a Douglas ticket. The Banner says:
Every vote cast In this State for
Douglas is an indirect vote for Mr..
Bell, because it will be weakening
the Democratic vote that much.
Will not then the running Of
Douglas be playing into the hands
of the Opposition? or course it will.
Why then viii men who have always
claimed to be Democrats still persist
in trying to get up disssnsions which

Important Testimony.

The Memphis Appeal, One of the
most able, respectable, and iDauen.
tial, of all the papers in the South
that have espoused the cause Of Ste
phen A. Douglas. bears this noble
testimony to the gallant SON Of Ken
lucky;
"A!r. Brsckinridge hiss always beer
regarded as one of the most con
sentative and one Of the best Union
men in the country. His nomina
ton is q clear concession by the Sc.
eeders to the principles of conserva'
tism and the cause of the Union.
The above testimony is such as we
would expect from paper possess
ing the high character of the Appeal
and will have it's influence. Mr.
Breckenridge is one Of the most con
sentative, xnd one Of the best UnioI
men, 10 be found In all tho land; an(
his nomination stands as a complete
refutation Of the slsnderous ehargt
that the party by which ho was nom
ated is in favor Of southern secession
and not true friends to the Union
In every Southern State, hun.
drsds, probably thosands, of men Car
be found, who would have voted fol
Douglas to defeat Lincoln, and who
would hare supported him zealously
in preference to any man outside Of
the democratic party. yet there are
men inside Of the party that they
preferred TO him. MIR. Breckenridge
ia now fairly before the country as q
candidate, and We feel confident that
no southern man can find any thing
in the history Of Mr. Douglas, any
thing in the principles ha processes.
that Can cause him to prefer Douglas
TO Breckenridge. The man opposed
to black republicanism will find the
creed Of Mr. Breckenridge more an.
to the principles Of that
party than are the sentiments Of Mr..
Douglas. We can find many rea.
sons for prefsrriEg Douglas to Lin
coin, but We find no reason for pre-
ferring Douglas to Breckinridge:-
In whatever respects Douglas is pref.
,rable to Lincoln, in tho same re.
poets Breckenridge is much more
preferable.

publicans 10 order to do it, 10 lie alarm

We begin NON to suspect, that for
every ten Democrats Who Douglas
may detach in the South from Brock
inridge, Col. Bell will lose as many
old friends, who rally to Breck and
Lano. The detection of So many
monument men already from the
Bell and Everett cause, will, We fear,
not be without serious effect, for the
reason that these ale representative
men. And the'policy recommended by
Governor Hunt and Mr.. Brooks. Of
New York. to unite With two life
long enemies to absorb the Bell and
Everett ticket, is not calculated to
encourage the honest Southern sup
porters of Col. Bell, who are going
10 for him against the field.
The Union men are to hold a
State ratification meeting 10 this

shall then be able TO judge whether
the rumors We have alluded to have
any basis of truth 10 them or not, and
Ue shall then, also, see. whether the
