inennhlIcnn Rally at Basil.

On Saturday evening last, the Liberty
Wide Awakes" held their first meeting,
and we have no hesitation in prouounclng
it the best and largest township meeting
ever held in Fairfield county. The crowd
numbered at least 700 In the early part
Of the evening Harman Ruoss, Esq, Of
Columbus, addressed the meeting in lhe
German language, and We are told made an
aole and effective speech. Before and du
ring the time Of Mr.. Rucss speech the
"Whisky" boys done everything in their
power to disturb aud break up the meet
ing by hallowing, whOoping, groan'ng
screaming, and indulgng in the worst
species of low, dirty blackguardism. We
are told that general row was only pre-
vented by the arrival of the Lanc"s'c'
"Wide Awakes." .,t
These contemplate attempts to dis
turb Republican meetings have BECOME to-
freuuent to be tolerated in silence.
They are to be accounted for FIRST up
en- the "whiskey' principle, and second
upon the soarness of the broken, disrupt
ed, and distracted enemy who have not to
little sense to see and know that the pow
,er and spoils OF office are passing froI
them.
After Mr.. Ruess closed, G. B. Masol
ESQ, of Circleville. took the stand an
made an able and telling speech, l.
proyed, from the record, that the Repul
.lican party of to. day stood by the faith
the fathers-by the first 60 years practl'
of the government-where WasLingto
Jefferson, Franklin, Madison, Adams, lie
Henry, Randolph, Webster. Clay, ALT
great lights of the nation had stood
fore them, aud that the bogus Democl
CIV of to day had abandoned all the gr'
prirciples-all their ancient teachings a
were now criugiag at The feet of the sl'
mower with no will butto obey its brhes
n After the speeches, the Wide Awak
numbering in all, 90 lamps, formed
procession and marched to Baltimore
The display was magnificent and the
Co. ;;vt what was desired--to fill
friends with hope and enthusiasm; teri

COMPLETION OF THE TELEGRAPH TO Los
AxGELEs.-The Telegraph line has, been
completed to Los Angeles, and dispatches
have been sent between that city and San
Francisco. There is now a continuous line
of telegraph from Yreka to Los Angeles a
distance of seven or eight hundred miles.
Tn speaking Of this important event, the
Alta says:
We are now in instantaneous connection
with the far south as well as with the lar
north. The silver veins of Washoe, the gold
placers of Yreka the cattle pastures OF The
San JOAQUIN valley, the grain fields OF Napa.
the orchards of Santa Clara, and the vlne-
wards and orange groves of Los. Angeles,
are all within speaking distance. All tie
pulses in the State beat together; every
throb in the veins of the miner is felt, at
the same instant. thrilling the ranc1ero, the
farmer, and the importer. This line does
not only connect US with Los Angeles, but
it also forms an important link III the con-
nection with the eastern States, n connec-
ton that must be made, and cannot be de-
ayed more than year or two. The tele-
graph is now flushed on the ether side to
Fort Smith, and telegraphic company
with capital of S2,0O0,00O, and owning
1000 miles of telegraph. ispreparing to ex-
tend the line from Fort Smith to Fort Iu-
ma. 1t will not be long before pony ex-
press will be established between the wires
on the two sides of the continent, and then
San Francisco will be brought within a few
DAYS of New York.
The Nevada Democrat., 1860-10-13

CHANGING THEIR TAcTICs.-The Sacra-
mento News, referring to Sargent's speech
in that city, says he "scathed the Douglas
party and exposed the Breckinridgers."
He has probably come to the conclusion
that it is about time for his party to change
their tactics. Thus far the Republican
stumpers have treated their sectional allies
with great consideration, and as the two
parties do not in any manner come in con-
fict with each Other-the one running ex-
clusively in the North and the other in the
South-there is no reason they should fall
out at this late day in the canvass.
The Nevada Democrat., 1860-10-13

A RUPTURE AMONG THE ALLIEs-Tbe ru-
NOR having reached Washington that the
Republicans we're about to abandon Illinois
to Douglas, ,'has given great offense to the
Breckenridge leaders. They say that as
Breckinridge cannot carry his own State,
it is very desirable that Douglas should lose
Illinois also. The Breckinridgers go so far
in their resentment as to threaten the Re-
publican leaders that If the plan of abandon.
ing Illinois is persisted In. the Breckenridge
men of Indiana and Pennsylvania will per-
nit those States to go for Douglas, and
thereby make Lincoln's defeat certain.
There Is a smothered quarrel between the
allied sectional parties about the Illinois
programme of the Republicans, which may
break out with great fury before the day of
election. The programme has gone too far
to be abandoned by the Republicans, as at
last accounts their principal stumpers of
Illinois had already started for Indiana.
AS there is really no contest between the
Breckinrldgers and Lincoluites, in any
State in the Union, 1t is pity the two par
ties cannot get along agreeably, and con-
tinue to assist each other.
The Nevada Democrat., 1860-10-13

No DOUGLAS PARTY IN ARKANsAs.-The
New York Day Book says:
There is no Douglas party in Arkansas,
Rust and Flournoy compose about all the
adherents that Mr.. Douglas can boast OF in
the State.'
The New York Day Book knows about as
much of the politics of Arkansas as he cares
for our southern institutions, and that is
very little, or he would not labor ardently
for the promotion of Lincoln to the Presi-
dency, by dividing the Democratic strength
which conld defeat him, if united upon
Douglas and johnson.
If the Day Book means: no Administra-
tion party in Arkansas for Douglas, we ad-
nit it. But there is Democratic party
here, recognising Douglas and Johnson as
the true exponents of Democratic princi-
pies, a1d as the regular nominees of the
party. This party is composed of the people,
who bid defiance to Federal despotsm, and
Republican tricksters, who ''steal the livery
of Democracy to serve Abe Lincoln in."-

"CoL. E. J. LEWIS, ESQ.,, has managed to

tleman with handle at each end Of his
name:
The Shasta Herald is right again, when
it.says the Douglas party could not long
hold man like Col. Lewis. That's 80, in

did not hold him long either time. 1t re-

CLAIBORNE \. JACKsoN.-The st. Louis
correspondent of the Bulletin, in late let
ter, states that Claiborne u. Jackson, the
Governor elect of Missouri. made flaming
Breckenridge speech before the Secession
convention recently held in that State; and
the Breckinrldge papers of California are
going into eXtacies over the fact that Jack.
son has deserted the party that elected him
to Office. 1t will be remembered that C. +.
Jackson, during the late canvass in Missou-
ri, came out publicly and announced his in-
tention of supporting Douglas. Upon this
announcement, the Breckenridge party
called a convention at st. Louis, and nomi-
mated Hancock Jackson as their candidate
for Governor, and a full State ticket. The
result was that c. f. Jackson received some
$4,000 votes and was elected, while the
vote cast for the Breckinridge candidates
was but little over 10000. The statement
of the Bulletins correspondent is not con-
iirmed by subsequent advices, though it
may be true. But even if it should prove
true, that Governor Jackson had Joined the
Secession camp, he cannot carry with him
the $4,000 voters who supported him as an
avowed Douglas man. Missouri is cer-
tain to cast her electoral vote for Douglas
in any event.
