No CAUSE or ALAEa.--We vcnturc the
statement that at no former pcriod in the
history Of Pamela county, could il be said
that the entire slave population were under
better subsection than they were on Christ
mas day. No one need feel any unessiness
about instructions. Our SYSTEM Of Patrols
has done the work, and al cause Of alarm
from even . few disor,lcrly slaves, has been
disapated. Vigilance should not cease, un-
I'll after the i,h Of March, however, nor
even then. II owners and over.eers would
adopt the plan Of paying their SLAVES for
their work 1t home during Christmas week
It would greatly promote the good order Q!
society, and benefit the slaves. II is too
often the case that such promises arc ne.
elected and Of course the slave becomes un.
easy and wants to GO from home to make a

keep his promises to his slaves. faith.

no better way to spoil . good slave than By

From the result OF the late State Con-
vention in Illinois, it would appear that
Long John and his black confreres have
succeeded in arousing the friends Of MIR.
Brcckinri Ice to the point Of placing All
out On out Breckinridgc aud Lane tick
ct in the field for the votes Of the
people.
In the State Of Illinois, it is our cam
did belief that this ticket will not poll
ten thousand votcs and even that
would be doing as well or better than
the National Democr attic ticket did in
the great contest against Douglas when
last he ran for the U. s. Senate with
Lincoln.
In that State We consider the election
Of Douglas - certain, the Efforts Of the
united opposition to the contrary, not
outstanding. In Indiana, also, there i.
. feeble effort being made by tho Re-
publcans to incitc the what few Breck-
inridge men there are to put State and
electoral ticket into the field, they (thc
Republicaus) promising to furnish the
necessarg funds to manufacture cnthus-
iasm-pav regular and contingent cx-
penses. Whether the Scceders Of that
State will catch at the bait remains yet
to be seen.
1t is easy, however, extremely easy,
at the present time, to see how much
pure Democracy, and how much una
dulterated Black Rcpnblicanism there is
in these Breckenridge movements. 1t
NAV not be thus in every instance, but it
looks very much like it. The opposi-
ton count every vote they can get cast
for the Breckenridge and Lane ticket,
Just ~ good as one cast for the regula.
nominee ofthe Republican party Aud
20 it is. No other face can be put upon
il. 10 Illinois the Republicans and
their favorite are qaaking with fear tina,
Lincoln will get worsted by Douglas a.
in former trial, and knowing that they
have not got Republican votes enough
TO defeat the Little Giant" they leave
no stone unturned to draw away votes
from Douglas by getting up Breckin
ridge and Lane ticket. 80, If Dough-.
il defeated in Illinois, a proposition,
which we do not agree to by any means
the defeat will be attributable onlv to
those who support the Breckenridge and
Lane ticket, and not directly to the Re
publicans. The same will be true 10 some
other States, if Douglas fails in getting
. majority. This may seem perfectly
right in the eyes Of many Breckenridge
men-it may appear proper to them to
assist in the election Of = Black Rcpub-
Iican, rather than q Democratic Prcsl-
dent, that their personal hatred OF
Douglas is stronger than their love OF
Democracy; it SO then the die is cast,
and the doom Of the party sealed. Who
will bear this great responsibility Who
but those whose acts incur it?
