The Value Of One Vote.

We would impress upon every citizen the
importance Of single vote. Have you ever
considered that the election in this State
nay. the election in the United States-may
be determined by a single State9 If not, let
US answer YOU that such a thing is within
the bounds Of possibility. if not probability.
State elections have been decided by one
vote, and Presidential elections by one State;
and hence it is not impossible that the pres
ent contest may depend upon a single vote.
Let every true friend and supporter of BELL
and EVERETT act, then, up to the conviction
that he may, Individually, be responsible ;or

to the old, time-worn leaders. of Slidellism in this

Why If all the changes which have been reported had

The old game has again commenced. Colonization,
so long and so strong an element in Democratic or
CARNATIONS, is to be used IN this canvass to carry the
State for BRECKENRIDGE. Much depends upon the vote of
Louisiana. If she votes against Mr.. Breckenridge,

a return to the United States Senate. Should this
c%onsumation so devoutIy to be wished take place. the
hangers on and spoilsmen Of the democratic party,
will desert it like rats deserving a sinking ship. 1t is
but the cohesive power of public plumber which keeps
the concern called a Democratic party in this STATE

We know that there are many voters in this part

think the South would be bettered by secession, and
Mr.. EYsck,NRlm,E would be the man to carry into
execution such a rurpos,. These same men profess
to be strongly attached 10 the Union, and would sup

AIDING with great glee a letter from a Bell and Everett
sub-elector in Alabama who had determined to sup
port the Disunion ticket. The said sub. elector is
named McCraw. He said he was prompted to change
his ground by Mr.. Everett's supposed belief in the
equality of the negro with the white man; but the
closing sentence Of his letter showed that he had not
assigned the true reason. The sub-elec,or was wrong
in the ostenslble reason he gave for his chanse-he
had misinterpreted the views of Mr.. Everett. The
following which we copy from the Monte emery Ala.
Post, answers his objections, but as McCraw has
gone we trust he will stay sgone."

The Hon. William l. Yancey, the head
and front of the Breckenridge party, was
particularly severe in his speech the other

tied in the Northern States-thus giving the
North a deci led preponderance over the

A Brilliant Triumph. ~

The special elections for Representatives to the
Legislature in the Fourth and Fifth Wards yesterday
were far more warmly contested than is usual at a
local election, and the result in both instances was a
splendid Union victory. In the Fourth ward 7. F.
Adams. the Union candidate, beats Starke (Breck.)
10 votes. and would have beaten HIM far worse, but
for the large number of sufraees given by the friends
of Mr. Douglas to Mr.. Lipscomb. In the Fifth Ward
Arroyo (Union) defeats Gottschalk (Breck. to the
tune 1873 votes. In these Districts, next Tuesday, the
Bell and Everett majorities will be nearly doubled
The Brecklnfiige men fought desperately, especially
in the Fourth Ward, where several of their strongest
leaders were actively engaged in the hopeless effort
to avert defeat. This is a straw We send to our coun-
try friends As a slight earnest of what We intend to
accomplish on the 9th November Bee.

EXTRAORDINARY FAcr.-The Indianapolis
lind speech of Gen. Joseph Lane, the
Breckenridge candidate for the Vice Presi-
dency, in which he declares that should
Lincoln be elected, 'the Democratic party
will keep right on battling for its principles,
remembering that four years will quickly
pass" has been before the country for more
than a month, and not one vi the Breckin-
ridge organs Of the South has published it. or
given its readers the gist Of the speech upon
this question! II any one of them has done
this, it has escaped our observation. Couse-
quentiy, those Breckinridge men who see
only their own party papers: are in profound
ignorance of the position of their candidate
for the Vice Presidency upon one Of the most
startling questions now before the country.
This is honest, isn't ita This is dealing
fairly and frankly with the people! These
Breckenridge organs are every day denounc-
lng the Constitutional party Of the South for
giving utterance to precisely the same senti-
ments that their candidate for the Vice Pres
ldency enunciates.
What must every honest man think of
conduct like this? Is a party whose organs
thus conceal the truth from their readers
worthy of public confidence? Ought patri-
otto men to sustain it? Can the South safely
commit its honor into the hands of such a
custodian?

In the year 1856, Mr.. Breckinridge deliv-

noe. in Indiana, in which be used the follow
ing language:

the Territory. The Democratic party is no
pro-sforerv party.
The people OF the Territories. under the
Kansas Ne biaska act. have the full right to
establish or prohibit slavery, just US a State

The Louisville Journal we'll says, that to
add a word of comment to this would be
"wastetul and ridiculous excess" It asserts
the doctrine of absolute non-inlervention
as plainly as language can assert it. We may
pertinently add, however, that Mr.. Douglas,
in his late speech, bore his personal testimony
to the fact that Mr.. Breckinridye. in the
campaign OF 1896: advocated the doctrine in
precisely the same extent and with exactly
the same c instruction that the speaker him
self advocated and now advocates. Douglas
declares solemnly that in the campaign OF
1856 he spoke from the same stump with
Breckenridge, and that the latter inculcated
sqnatter sovereignty with all the might of his
eloquence and zeal. Il made speeches,r is
Douglas language, "from the same stand
with John c. Breckenridge in 1856, WIN he
was advocating his own claims to the Vice
Presidency, and heard him go to the ertreme
length in faror Of popular Sovereignty in The
Teyruoies.' To the like effect is the testi-

Republican, is a gentleman of irreproachable

thing.
