The Presidential Aspect.

The New York Herald is a political wealth
er cock which tries to veer with every wind,
and very seldom gets rusted too fast to turn
with strong popular breeze. The Herald
has been strongly Anti-Lincoln ever since his
nomination, but n the 18th it says:
The results Of the Maine September State
election strongly fOreshadow the triumph of
the Republicans in the great national contest
Of November. The chances for Lincoln's de-
feat are reduced to very narrow margin
Vermont and Maine have settled the question
for the New England States There is no
hope for the Union conservative forces in that
quarter. Nor can we give them any encour-
agement from the recent popular campaign
ing demonstrations Of the great West. From
Ohio to Minnesota the swarming professions
Of the flag Of Lincoln seem to be carrying
everything before them. The States which
may defeat him are Pennsylvania, New Jer-
sey and New York, but it is probable that
upon New York alone the whole weight of
the battle may depend.
The Herald is not the only Democrat
doubled up by the Maine election. Coca
sional," the Washington correspondent OF
Forney's Press, writes:
The result Of the Maine election is full Of
prophetic philosophy. It will inspire the Re-
publicans to renewed exertions. It viii in
tOxicate them. They will gather so much
encouragement from this election that they
will hatter themselves that they can advance
even upon their present advanced position
The September election in Maine has been a
sort Of foTe-TUnaeT to the Presidential election.
Maine proves that Abra IAN
Lincoln will certainly be chosen for the next
President, unless, in the meantime Mr.. Breck-
enridge shall withdraw himself from the field,
and the fire eaters and the disunionists Of the
South shall ground their arms and yield to
Douglas and johnson.

The Pittsburgh Chronicle states that the
most moderate of the leading Republicans Of
Eastern Pennsylvania estimate the Republi-
can majority for Governor east Of the Allie
ehenies at 9,IOO. The Democracy claim
5000 majority for Governor in Philadelphia,
though most of the ardent Curtin men claim
that he will carry the city against Foster
If the claim of the Democrats in regard to
Philadelphia be allowed, it leaves an estima-
ted majority for Curtin of 4,loo east of the
mountains.
The estimated majorities by counties West
of the Alleghenies, give Curtin I3,5Oo, ma
king a total Republican majority IN the
State of 1900. This majority allows Fos-
ter 5000 majority in Philadelphia.

DrOuth and Suffering in Kansas.

All accounts concur in representing the
condition of matters in Kansas as most pitt
able. The drouth has been very general and
of extraordinary duration. Its effects are
visible everywhere, and the suffering is gen
eral. The earth is literally parched, and crops
generally are a failure Many families are
moving back to Iowa and Illinois to winter,
having no prospect of being able to sustain
themselves on their farms.

SAD INDEED.-Two lads, aged II and la

Lincoln Pole Cut Down in KentneI.y.

The Republicans ofNewport raised Lincoln
and Hamlin pole Thursday evening, which
pro-slavery dastards made war upon and cut
down during the night. The Wide Awake

Saturday afternoon.
The time will yet come when Liberty poles

The next four years will perform wonders in

VICTORY.
FOR sEPrEMBER 10th, 1860.

On Erie's fair bosom in fancffll pride.
Did the feet Of old England exUltingly ride,
Till the flag Of COlum bia her Perry unfurled,
The boast Of the West and the pride OF the world.
In the snug little harbor Of fam'd Put-in-Bay,
COlumbia's small feet securely did lay
Each man at his post, awaiting the dawn,
All anxious the Tray to commence in the morn.
As soon as the dawning of day did appear,
From the snug little harbOr bold Perry did steer
When the enemy opened with fire most raking,
Expecting bold Perry they soon would be taking.
But the spirit Of Lawrence his influence shed,
s.DOn't give up the Ship, - when dying he said f:
Though 'ieath hover round US, and great numbers
Well 1ig 0raveIy my lads or wen conquer our foes.
The Lawrence disaI led, with chosen brave few,
Perry went to the Niagara, the tight to renew;
The wind springing up then, he sailed through the
And the cross Of proud England lay soon at his feet
While they played Yankee Doodle, and the Stars
Six ships Of the British our tars did subdue;
They fought for their country, and were bound to
The freedom Of trade and our right to the main.
Thus ever, when foes, no matter from whence,
Assail US, more Perry viii drive them from hence
From the nelds and the workshops Of the free and
Millions Of irgemen will rise our country to save.
This day, then on high, ven monument raise
That nations around may behold our praise,
For the noble deeds Of Perry then done,
On the bosom OF Erie when the battle be won.

Edward Everett.

"The suspense about Mr.. Everett's nomina-
tion has really excited quite hurricane in the
Northern press. They are even astonished at
Southern arrogance and impudence. This is
cheering, for it shows that they have little
manly feeling left. Presses that are dumb to
the unutterable cruelties daily perpetrated
against the slave, are aroused to pious indigna-
ton at the idea that Shareholders should assume
a censorship over Northern opinions. But ac-
cording to their old serviity, they are forswcar-
ing Mr. Everett's abolitionism! They say he
is not an Abolitionist at ALL or not SO in any
" otaious sense of the term" In this they be-
tray utter Ignorance OF consummate meanncss.
If EDWARD EVERETT IS NOT TO ALL INTENTs AND
PURPOSES AS MUCH AN IMMEDIATE ABoLITIoSIsT
AS GERRrr SMITH OR ARTHUR TAprAN, HE Is A
HYPoCRITE. He was once anti-Abolitionist, but
the proofs of his conversion are uneauivocal and

DOUGLAS OPPOSED TO SLAVERY AND IN FAVOR
or EMANCIrATIoN.--1lerc is what Douglas said
in answer TO Mr.. Calhoun-cvclybody read:
I have already had occasion to remark that
at Tie time of the adoption Of The Constitution
there were twelve (save States) and six Of
them have since abolished slavery. This .faet
SHOES that the cause Of lrss,1oa has sady ani firm
y alrMaced. schHe sA,rey has recelol IN lie a'ne
ratio. Welooh .Iortyar1 miM confidence to the tine
when Delaware, Virginia, Maryland, Kentucky,
and Missouri, and probably North Carolina and
Tennessee. will adopt one gradual system Of
emancipation, under the operation of which
those states must, in the process of time become
free.
Then, sir, the position Of the Senator from
South Carolina is entirely impracioable. It
would revoutionize the fundamental principles
Of the Government. 1t would destroy the
great principle OF popular equality Mot popu-
lar sovereignty which must necessarily form
the basis OF all institutions. 1t would be a
rctrograde movement in an age Of progress that
would astonish the world, (to so amend the Col-
s,itution as to preserve the equilibrium between
the slave and free statcs,) )-[App. Con. Globe

Bell party-sq.satter Sovereign
IVY

The opposition South have declared their de-
termination to oppose squatter sovereignty to
the bitter end, albeit they stand upon q plat
form that does not rcpudiate it. They abused
the Democracy for standing upon the Cincinnati
platform. which was liable to one construction
North and another South. This was very dis
honest in the Democrats. Now they advocate
platform which. in the language of MI. Judge,
of Alabama strong and influential member of
the Opposition party, Brigham Young can
stand upon. 1t is for or against squatter sov-
ercgnty according TO the circumstances Of the
case. AS an evidence Of it, in the New York
Constitutional Union Electoral Convention,
which assembled at Utica on the 18th inst,
Hon. James Brooks, one of The two speakers
who addressed the Convention, is thus alluded
TO:
Gle reviewed the action OF the Wings in the
Compromise measures Of 1850, showing that the
policy then adopted by that party was Congress
