The western Democrat. [volume] (Charlotte, N.C.) 1852-1870, 1860-11-06
BEGINNING TO VINCE.

Hs paper VI InlS place, we guess tne Lultof
wincing under the process we have carried him
! through for the last few weeks He now deals in
what he no doubt considers very smart sarcasms
with numerous exclamation points BY way of q
flourish but which sensible readers will look upon
as puny effort from an innocent O. source This
is all we have to say in regard to the editors
puerile attempt at ridicule. But there some
other things in the Douglas organ which we shall
briefly notice. 1t says:
CHOW additionally we have to say that the editor
of the Western Democrat has been plainly, pal
pably convicted of misrepresentation in relation to
ourself. abuse implies false charges; let this
seceder editor prove wherein have published
sal sorts of abuse Of Messrs. Buchanan and
Breckenridge, or stand convicted of another de-
Eberate purpose to misrepresent."
To show that the sagacious Individual who pre-
sides over the columns of the Douglas organ has
abused MIR. Buchanan and Mr.. Breckenridge, we
might only refer to the columns of that paper for
several weeks past, where columns of stuff of that
kind will be found but we will just direct atten-
ton to the following extract taken from article
in the same number of the paper which contains
the above call, for the proof of our assertions:
ave learn that it is seriously in contemp lation
among the Republican leaders to get up SUBJ
scription to purchase large and valuable service
of plate to present to Mr.. Buchanan for his
valuable services in building up the Republican
party
The above is copied into the Douglas organ from
a paper published in free State, and endorsed by
the editor of the said Douglas organ by placing it
in his editorial column. That is not only abuse of
Mr.. Buchanan, but is miserable attempt to mis-
represent him
But the editor of this Charlotte Douglas organ
should not talk about Misrepresentation, after we
have convicted him of disappearing US by
taking parts of sentences from different articles in
the Western Democrat, onsitting Intervening ltnes
and combining them together as our sentiments.
The editor of that paper keeps the article, thus
patched up, standing on his outside page, under
the head of snow aud Then" When We re-
buked and exposed the unfarness, he replied by
saying it was copied from another paper. We de-
MED that it ever appeared in any paper previous to
his, and defed him to prove it by naming the
paper. He has not done so, and the public may
judge who has been guilty of Misrepresentation
with deliberate purpose"
Further: The editor of the Douglas faction
stands convicted of misrepresentation, by blaming
the democratic party for the pressure in money
matters, by denying that Mr. Douglas ever threat
ened to coerce Southern States, by asserting that
he was willing to abide by the decision of the
Supreme Court, and by denying that he had made
speech in favor Of high tariff. Some weeks
ago we proved by Mr.. Douglas own language, that
his editor here was ignorant of his position, but
the said editor found it convenient not to refer to
the questions again.
CHOW additionally" we have to say that the
Editor of the Doug las Democrat" has been plainly,
palpaby convicted of misrepresentation not only
in relation to ourself'' but also in regard to the
positions Of Mr.. Douglas, and he may twist and
squirm as much he pleases and then not be able
to Justify such conduct or clear himself of ode
liberate purpose to misrepresent." Before this
Douglas editor charges us with deliberate purpose
msrepresent he had better purge himself of that
crime.
COUSIN joe BEATEN AT HoME-The election of United
States Senators in Oregon has resulted in the choice of
a Douglas Democrat and non-intervention Republic
can. The places that know cousin Joe will know
him forever.
Poor old fellow! Ho go to farming we suppose.
Wonder if he intends to settle among his relations in
Buncombel It's capital stock county Charlotte
Douglas paper. -.-..
How was Gen. Lane beaten at home? BY
fusion Of the Douglas men with the Black Repub
licans The Douglas members of the Oregon
Legislature Ga portion of the selfstyled " true
coalesced with the Black Republican
members, aud thus succeeded in defeating Joe
Lane, man hated by aboltionsts for his devotion
to Southern rights. One of the Senators elected
over Lane is stumping the State of Oregon for
Lincoln! And yet the Douglas editor here exults
over the defeat of Gen Lane without saying one
word in condemnation of the corrupt bargain
which caused it. Shame, shame, upon any South
ern man who exults at the defeat (by Black Re-
publican combination) of man who has spent a
large portion of his life in fighting his country's
battles, and who has always been true to the Con-
stitution and the Union. But nothing better can
be expected from a gentleman who has already
absoved himself (by resolution) FROM all allegiance
to the Government and who acted as powder
monkey on the occasion Of firing disunon guns
Like several others who are fighting for Douglas
against the democratic party, this Douglas editor
has been disorganizer, and forced himself upon
the democratic party when his services were not
wanted. He then co-operated with the opposition
party to defeat the democratic nominees, as he is
