A Democrats Opinion of Dem.
Ocracy.

We hare received the following commu.
nication from Geo. w. Yocu'n, Esq, Of this
place. Mr.. Yocum has heretofore acted
with the democratic party--having bee vne
Of its leaders AMI principal speakers in this
county for two or three years past. The
document speaks for itself, and to it we in
vite the attention of the reader:
Mr. EDITOR 1T has already become pub
licly known that my opinion in respect to
the power of Congress to govern the terrific
rics is utterly at variance with the doctrine
of Squatter Sovereignty, and little more in
harmony with that other theory insisted up
on by the greater majority of the Democrat
bic party. Any system or theory that will
extend the institution of slavery beyond its
present limits, can never meet my approval
nor obtain my support. Entertaining this
view of slavery, and holding that it is crea-
ture Of local law, totally incapable of exist
ance beyond local regulation, l can see no
proprietv in voting with the Democratic
Rsty. But au Indifferent as to whether
popular sovereignty or the slave code theory
shall finally gain the ascendaney and pre-
vail as the settled p'lcy Of the Democratic
party fOl they are equally in violation OF
right, and cannot endure and the elevation
of one over the other, will b. but a tempo
rary triumph, insignificant in its effect, ex-
cept as it operates to extinguish its own
vitality.
As for any real difference in the two theo-
ries held by the opposing forces of the dem
ocratic party, there is none. Whatever the
theory Of the one or the other may be, the
practical effect of both, will be to override
every barrier to the progress of slavery, and
introduce it into every territory belonging to
the United States. What, then, is the DIFF.
ference in the the theory of the two factions
both arrive at the same conclusion by a little
different process. Is it not verify dstinc-
ton without difference! If both will at
tain the same end, and purge the territories
of freedom, can any man be sane and say he
has preference which shall do it? If sla-
very is to be forced in and freedom is to, be
forced out Of the territories, (Which is newt
able if the Democratic party continues in
power, ] who will be captious enough to in
sist that either the one or the other of its
bellgerent factions shall be set apart for the
work? / am Indifferent

The Dying AgOnies of the De-
mOcr:tcy at Baltimore.

From the New Fork Herald, 22l
Whom the gods would destroy they first
make mad" We refer the inquiring reader
to our reports of yesterdays proceedings in
the Baltimore Convention. They unique.
and in every point of view they are full Of IN
struction. They betray the Character oethe
materials of which these national party con-
ventions are composed, and particularly the
predominating element ofruffianism, to the
!ull gaze ofthe world. We perceive, too, in
these scenes Of brutal violence, where all
should be harmony and Cancellation, that the
days Of this demoralized Democratic party
are numbered, and that it is in the aqonies
Of death.
Upon the question of the contested South.
ern delegations, the New Workers asked an.
other nights reflection. They hesitate be.
tween the alternative Of sacrificing the
party for the sake ofDouglas and the expe-
dent Of propring Douglas they will array
the solid Northwest against the Albany Re-
gency, and they see that in adhering to
him they only precipitate the inevitable ex-
plosion. For once the willy, plotting Dean
Richmond is in water beyond his Depth
He finds that all his beautiful arrangements
perfected at Syracuse last September, for
debating the candidate of this Convention,
fall short of the necessities of the case. But
he and his delegation do not yet despair, or
they would not have asked another night for
the purpose ola treaty of peace.
We can tell Master Richmond, however,
and Mr. Church, his henchman, that they
ma, as well abandon at once all their delu-
sive hopes of the spoils and plumber of the
next administration. z1eg are lost. The
Democratic party is destroyed. There is net
the remotest disable ghost Of contingency
for tie reunion of tie 5eligerent eze nents of
the revolutionary Conrention The moral
consequences of what they have already
done render it superhuous to speculate up
on what they may do to-day or tomorrow.
Assuming that these figting factions,
cliques and sections may still agree to bury
the Ratchet, and unite upon compromise
ticket, it will avail them nothing. The
party is broken to pieces, and with one
two, or three tickets, it must be superseded.
1t as too badty cut up, too seriously crippled,
and has too many bones broken, TO be heal
ed and PIT upon its legs again IN a single day
or a single gear. II IS practically disabled
and djsbanded, Uhateuer may be the rene
dies attempted by this ConUention. In brief
the National Convention of the Democ attic
party, having become degraded to the base
condition of Tammany Hall inits worst days
ofruffianism, is only suffering the fate of Ia
many Hall--discords, divisions, rebellion,
defeat and disgrace.
Were there no other drawback to the re-
union of the party, the fact that this Balti-
more Convention represents the party will be
capital enough for the Republicans. A mir
acle, can save the distracted Democracy
from terrible revolutionary explosion at
Baltimore.

Yates Oh Eissc1lss.

The Hon. Richard Yates, Republican can
didate for Governor in Illinois, addressed
mass-meetng at Springfield on the 7th inst.
We copy the following passage relative to
Mr. Lincoln:
Now, fellow citizens, it may strike YOU
as rather strange matter that the people of
so great nation as this should come to Iii.
nois for its PreSident--that the mighty Re-
publican party should look to this far away
Prairie State for its standard bearer;n such
momcntuS contest. Yet, say here to-day
|Ai1ati have heard the great men of this na-
ton, North and South, East and West, for
four consecutive years in the Hall of the
House of Representatives, and in the Senate
of the United States have heard the Ste
phcns and Toombs of the South, the Stewards;
Chases, and Corwins of the North; have
heard the most renowned orators on the floor
OF the Senate and House daily for years; and
! say here to-day. that for clearness of state
ment, for penetration of thought, for power
of irresistible logic, for broad, comprehen.
sive, statesman like views, for exalted purity
Of private and public character, your own
Abraham Lincoln is tue clearest, noblest
purest and best them all. In the history
of his life--in all the elements which inspire
with enthusiasm the hearts of the masses Of
mankind, and rouse the millions to action,
stand up here to-day in this Capital of the
State, and in the presence of my country
men, to say that the name of Abraham Lin
coin is this day and hour the mghtest name
upon the Continent of North America. PRO
longed cheers.
"Fellow citizens, the name Of Abraham
Lincoln, which we presented to You, is
winning name--a name to rally on WHEREBY
or freedom requires champion--a name to
boast OF wherever you would point to an
honest man or a patricia name to love
wherever affection would seek warm hear.
ted and generous spirit--a name which is
spell to gather millions wherever free hearts
and strong hands are to be summoned i'm
favor Of liberty and humanity" [TIemen-
dous applause. .......
