Cheering Accounts from IIOuiSinuassThe

Every day the political atmosphere in this State
grows brighter and brighter for the gallant young

tiona rights of the South In the parishes of Jack
son. Claiborne, VIM, Bossier, Cadpo Rapides Oua-
chita Fatchitoches and others in the Northwest we
have cheering accounts, and the local papers from
each clam the tallest kind of majo.ites for Brock
inridge and Lane.
In Jackson parish there are but two Douglas men,
and one of them is in Jail! Avoyelles, Pointe Cou-
nee St Landry Calcasieu Vermillion and the 9th,

the usual Democratic vote, as is evidenced by the
action of many of their planters who have always
been against US, but who are now with us, because
thew saw now is the time for every Southern tC
show his hand!
AS for Florida parishes, we have to say-they are
all right and will give unprecedented maJorities fol-
our candidates. To sum up, we now think that the
State will vote as follows in November:
FIRST District for Bell by 1000 over Breckenridge
Second District for Breckenridge by 500 over Bell
Third District, Breckenridge 5000 over Bell-Fourtf
District for Breckenridge by 5000 over Bell.

Speaking atiEsteII.

We learn that the Democracy had an enthusiastic
meeting at Estell Springs on the Sth. P. TuRNET,
Esq, of Winchester, made speech which is spoken
of by those who heard it a mastery effort in vim
dicaton of the doctrine that the South is the equal
of the North and the white the superior of the
negro Mr.. MCCUTCHEN, the late DOUGLAS ElectOr
for that District was present and called out by the
people. He made an eloquent appeal to all Demo
Gratis to come to the support of BREcKNRDGE and
LANE rather than help to bind hand and foot the De-
mocracy of Tennessee to be scourged by JOHN BELL.
Mr.. McCUrCHEN had made a speech at the same
place few days before in favor of DOUGLAS but
he had seen that all the encouragement he received
from his efforts was from the BELL men, and he
should no longer aid them to elect their chief but
would henceforward work faithfully for BRECKx-
RIDGE and LANE.

The York pa Gazette speaks cheerily for the
old Keystone, and remarks as follows:
The evidence that the entire Democracy of Penn
syvania will accept and carry out in the right spirit
the arrangement of the Democratic Executive Com

dillon to the few are able to quote to-day, we
have the proceedings of county meetings, of con-
ventons of delegates &c, from twentynine counties
all unequUocally endorsing the action Of the com
mittee. The good work goes bravely on-Foster

HoN. F. S. barlow FOR BRECKTNRIDGE.-We are
gratied to learn on undoubted authority that Capt
Francis S. Barlow of Savannah, heretofore promi-
nent leader to the Opposition party Of Georgia
is out in favor of Breckenridge and Lane and will
support them warmly in the present canvass. We
have reason to believe that he will shortly address
the people of Savannah in support of the glorious
principles of which Breckenridge and Lane are the
opponents
tyapt. Barlow has been deserved favorite of the
Opposition throughout the State. He was a cardi
date for Congress in the first district and has WELD
ed perhaps a stronger influence than any member
of that party in Georgia.
Thus they come Barlow, Miller, Evans, Elam
Gibson, Stewart Tiiwel Campbell, Burr, &C. &.

Accordingly a committee Of gentlemen was APP

Our friends. Senator's Green and Polk, Judge

the government was originally constructed. II
ever there was doubt whether Missouri would

doubt is now dissipated, and her vote in the coming

any shade or degree of insurgence against the su-

Judge Douglas ana his friend Gov.

In his Norfolk speech, Mr.. DOUGLAS being asked
a. If Abraham Lincoln be elected President of the
United States will the Southern States be justified
in seeding from the Union y
He replied:
"To this [ emphatically answer no. IGreat ap-
piausel The election of a man to tie Presidency
by the American people, in conformity with the
Constitution of the United States would not justify
anv attempt at dissolving this glorious COnfeder-
acy." [Applause.l
In his inaugural message of January 4, 1860, Mr..
LETCHER says, with equal emphasis If the ag-
gressions to which we have been subjected for so
many years are to be repeated, if mutual distrust
and suspicion are to continue, and if the election of
a sectional republican candidate in 1860 is to be
superadded it is useless to attempt to conceal the
fact that, in the present temper OF the southern
people it cannot and will not be submitted to-
In reply to another question, as to what he would
advise in case the Southern States secede from
the Union upon the Inauguration of ABRAHAM LIN
coin before he commits an overt act" Mr. DOUGLAS,
in the same speech, says:
4 answer emphatically that it is the duty Of the
President Of the United States and all others IN
authority under him. TO enforce the laws OF the
United States passed by Congress- and as the courts
expound them, [cheers, aid /, as in duty bound by
my oath Of fidelity 20 the Constitution, would 60 all
in my power to aid the Government of the United
States IN maintaining the supremacy of the laws
against all resistance to them, come from what
quarter 1t might tGoOd.l In other words, think
the President OF the United States whoever he may
be, should treat all attempts to break up the Union
by resistance to the laws, as Old Hickory treated
the nullifers in 1892 [Applausel
In his message of the 9Th January, Gov. LEToHEa
says, with equal emphasis

and advocated by the ablest and most distinguished
leader OF the Republican party is an open declara-
ton OF war against the institution of African slav

Virginia and the South if | did not declare that the
election of such man. entertaining sucb sentiments
and advocating such doctrines ought to be resisted

ANOTHER RooRBACK HEADED-The Wilmington

patch from this place Forneys Press, published in
Philadelphia as follows:
is the warm and ardent friend of Judge Douglas,

the November elections and also that the great
Democratic State Convention, held yesterday at this
place, has encouraged Mr.. Holden editor of the old
Democratic State paper, the Raleigh Standard who

The Journal then adds:
"What say Messrs. Clingman and Holden to the
statements in regard to them. which this Douglas
agent says he IS authorized" to make? 1t is due to
themselves and to their party to take immediate no.
tice of this"
We can speak positively for both Mr. Holden and
Mr.. Chngman and we assert that the dispatch above
referred to is wholly false to them The dispatch
