A limited South.

The Northern States are now unit in the strug-
gle which threatens the existence of our Govern
men+ Why may not the South be so? Are our
lives our liberty our happiness less dear to US than
the ephemeral triumphs of party? Let the South lock
shields and stand in solid phaanx, and the rushing
onset of Black Republicanism viii be stayed. New
er more in the history of nations has the adage
been applicable than at the present UNITED WE
STAND. DIVIDED WE PAIL" All is not yet lost. There
Is but one flag raised which has written upon
it principles that regarded by our enemies as
boldly antagonistic to theirs. Let the whole South
rally under that flag, and all will yet be well. The
widest maniac can be quoted by the determined
eve of his master. Let the South cease her blcker
ing and show her sectional enemies that she 1oA be
squz! in rights, and fanaticism will yet cover and
shrink from the contest.

NV YORK. Oct. Sth, 1860.


DEAR SIR: 1 am honored by the receipt of an invi-
tation to attend and address mass meeting of the
Maury and Williamson Democracy, to be held near
Spring Hill on the 18th inst. The kind and compli-
mentary manner in which your committees have ad-
dressed me, whilst it commands my gratitude,
heightens the regret feel in Withholding my accep
lance. An irnperious necessity growing out Of en-
gagements here which cannot be controlled, compel
me to decline.
l am rejoiced to perceive from the zeal and activ-
ity manifested by friends in Tennessee and else
where, that the evils which have threatened us may
yet be averted We feel morally certain of defeat
ing the Black Republicans in this State. That ac-
complished the failure of their candidates is nevi
table We have laid aside all personal predictions,
and might say all party ties except those which
bind us to the Constitution and secure hostility
to sectionalism we have taken cognizance of the
| truth that if New York can be saved, the whole
country will be safe and have written upon our
banner Union for the sake of the Union" All the
conservative Of our State are now united in the
support of single electpral ticket Confident il
the good sense Of people relying on the protec
ton which has hitherto presided over our destinies
| we look upon the discontinue of the public enemy
| as inevitable.
Acceptfor yourself and your associates, my thanks
for your courtesy, and believe me,
With great respect and esteem, yours truly,
CHAL~ O'CONOR.

ARREST OF A Man AND HIS WIFE on SERIOUS
CHARGE UNDERGROUND RAILROAD AGENTs.-JOhn
Moore and Mary Jane, his wife, were arrested IN

Judge Douglas and the Supreme
fnmnf.

Since Benjamin, Of Louisiana; charged
Douglas with repudating the decision of
the Supreme Court, the story has been
taken up and repeated by the Secession
politicians in all parts of the land, and
yet there is not one word of truth in tho
charge In his great speech in the Sen
ate, not more than two months ago, and
in reply to which Benjamin spoke, and
made this gross charge in the absence Of
Judge Douglas, the latter used the fol-
lowing language:
We are told that the court has already
decided that question. Uso, there is on
end 10 tie controversy. You agreed. TO
ABIDE By Il; I did If IL has decided Il, let The
decision go into effect; there is an end oft;
whot are We quarrelinq obouip"
Does this sound like ropudating the
decision of the Supreme Court? IL ap-
pears to be anything else than that. 1t
is true Judge Douglas does not believe
the question was decided by the Court
which the Secossionists and Republicans
assert was decided, and the fact that
Judge Taney is for Douglas for Presi-
dent is the best evidence that Judge Doug
las opinion is right Statesman.

The DisuniOn Candidate.

The Breckenridge men deny Justify that
they are disunionists, and their candidate
also denied it in his speech at Washing
ton. Now how is he regarded in the
Sou.h, and upon what ground is he sup
ported in that section of the Union. -
Hear what the Camden Register, printed
at Camden, Alabama, says on this ubect.
We think it cannot be misunderstood,
the reasons it gives for the support OF
BREcKENRlDGE ard LANE. Hear it,
"We run up our flag to-day for Breckenridge
and Lane, the Democratic nominees for President
and Vice President of the United States. w,
have unwaveringly concluded for the last ten year.
that it would he better (tor all conccrned) ~ max,
fuO di3ict governments Of The terriiOrU com
prsing The United States Of inurica, and that sucl
will ultimately be done there can be no sort o
doubt; but it should be done with fairness ant
Justice to every section ofthe Union; and bclcv
ing that the party to which we belong is He oni,
reiabte one fo carry ont his measure and secure all
her rights, intend battle Tor its principles to
the fullest extent of our ability"
How does that sound to the gentlemen
in Ohio, who say they are Old Jackson
men, and who support the same ticket
the Rcgister does? We have u very dis,
tinct recollection that Gen. JACKSON was
an ardent lover OF the Union, and pro
claimed that ~ must be preserved" |
to-day alive and in tho Presidential chair
he would hang some of the chief support
ers of BREcKENRIpGE in the South.
