DEMOCRATS CONE FOR BEI.L.-The Rock

cation from Charles Grattan, Esq, who was

significant extinct

leans. and for one | am willing to see that

phase the case can assume, we will nave a
Southern man infinitely preferable to Lin

crxpowprk PLol.-We had not conceived
that. in a country enjoying so much civil, po-
litical and religious freedom as our own any
ATTEMPT would ever have been made to re-
enact tie gunpowder plot of King James.
And vet it is true-the whole plot has been
detected, and Guy Fawkes' innumerable have
been discovered in every Northern city and
village.
It turns out now that all this firing Of guns,
burning of gunpowde,, and all these enthus'-
astic demonstration for Breckinrldge, were
gotten up purely by Government officials and
Black Republicans. The officials thought
this the surest way Of letting old Buck hear
from them; and the Black Republicans
wanted to make the Southern people believe
that Breckenridge was some" North-in
order to divide the South, and thus prevent
the election of Bell or Douglas. Old Buck
takes up the mornings paper, looks over it,
turns to the Postmaster General" Say !!
Holt, no firing Of guns for Breckenridge in
Eastern-remove the Postmaster" So where
the guns don't go oh-the official heads do.
By the bye, the gunpowder plot was de-
tected in November, .1605-next November
will tell on the new plot terribly.-Er.

Judge Robertson, OF Lexington, KY, has
written a letter, giving 10 his adhesion to
Messrs. Bell and Everett. He thinks that,
with one electoral ticket, the Democrats
would probably be beaten; divided, IS they
are, they will, he thinks, give the votes of
Kentucky, Tennessee, Louisiana, Missouri.
Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, and
Georgia, and possibly those OF Alabama,
Florida, Mississippi and Delaware, to Bell
and Everett. Douglas, with the aid of Bells
Northern vote, will prevent the election of
Lincoln BY the colleges, and then, Judge
Robertson thinks, the constitutional Union
Ticket will stand a fair chance of success
in the House.
