The keokuk Journal of Saturday published
an eloquent exhortation to voters to cast
their ballots for Douglas in order to secure
the election Of Bell. Lest our readers should
be incredulous, we give the following extract
of the address, which was copied from the
Louisville Journal, Bell and Everett paper,
and is primarily an exhortation to the Bell
men of the North to vote for Douglas. The
address concludes as follows:
Our conservative friends n the non slave
holding States must surely understand that
the triumph OF such a party and the estab
lIshment OF it's principles as the policy OF the
republic would put forever out OF the ques-
ton all thought Of amity between the North
and the South. We confidently ask them,
then, as patriots, as neighbors, to labor with
us for the defeat of that party. No doubt
they hate Democracy, and so, heaven knows,
do we, bat there is no danger of the election
OF Democratic candidate in this contest
Though Indiana and Illinois, and Iowas and
Wisconsin, and the other States in which the
friends of Douglas have the least hope might
60 for him, there would still be no chance
of his election. Such result ia those
States might effect the election of Bell and
Everett, but sssuredly not the election of
either Douglas or Breckenridge. The great
danger-the only danger now to be appre-
hended by the conservatives of the nation, is
from the election of Lincoln, and that is in
deed a terrible one. Widely as we differ
from Mr.. Douglas in many things, we should
deeply rejoice TO see Indiana and Illinois 90
for him, knowing, as we now do, that thew
cannot be carried for Bell. Let the Bell and
Everett men OF those States consider we'll
their duty TO themselves, to us, their breth-
rem, and to their country, in this momentous
emergency. Let them save their States from
Lincoln. Let them bend all their energies
to this end. Let them work with exclusive
reference to it. And by all means, let our
Indiana friends take good heed that the re
suit OF their State election 10 October shall
extinguish the last hope of Republcanism in
that State III this shall be done, the patri.
otto heart of the nation will bound for 10Y.
This is the Shareholders appeal to North
ern conservatives TO vote for Douglas-not
to elect him, but to defeat Lincoln and secure
the election of a slave code advocate in the
person of MIR. Bell. We doubt not the Bell
men will heed this appeal and vote for Doug
las in order to elect Bell but will Democrats
unite with Know Nothings TO secure the cleo
ton OF stakeholder aud slave oodist, by
Congress, rather than elect an honest West
ern man like Lincon'by vote OF the people2
vote for Douglas is certain to aid the cleo
ton of Bellby the House of Representatives
or of 10. Lane by the Senate.

Now und Then.

Judge Rufus p. Ranney made the recep
ton speech, at Cleveland, Ohio, the other
day, on occasion of the Douglas ovation
In the course of his address to MIR. Douglas,
Judge Rsnney said
"We have carefully marked your course
upon this subject, and fully approve 1t. In
. its application to the government of zoe Ter
ritories we believe with you, that Congress
has no rightful power over the subject, and
that it shosld be wholly Withdrawn from that
body and committed TO the people OF each
organized Territory, to settle for thems civ 90
as part of their own domestic policy"
On the Both September, lS48, just twelve
years ago, Judge Ranney wrote a letter to
b. F. Hoffman, 10 which he expresses the fol-
lowing sentiments:
81 am in favor OF maintaining the freedom
OF the Territories of New Mexico and Cali
fornia IN their whole extent, and utterly op
posed to authorizing slavery or involuntary
servitude of any kind within them, or TO any
Compromise which shall doom any part OF
them to the curse Of human bondage. ~~
vi do not stop TO state all the reasons
which bring me to this conclusion Suffice
it to say, tho maintaining their freedom 10
| in my judgment, due to humanity, to Repub.
loan principles, to our character and inter
ests as a people, to Mexico, and, above all,
to the poor OF our own and other lands who
shall go there to fnd homes for themselves
and their families, and who would be dis
graoed and degraded by the contact with
slave labor. | have no douh,
| OF the power OF Congress to erect Territorial
Governments and to provide for the prohi-
btion OF slavery within the Territories, and
! am in favor Of and would support such
| prohibition"
Judge Ranney believes now precisely the
| opposite OF what be believed in lS4s in re.
gard to this matter But Judge Ranney i.
not alone; he has followed Judge ID douglas in
this sunsmersault, and the entire rank and
hle of the Douglas Democracy has done thu
same thing. They have all, to a man
changed position since lo4S.
Douglas performed his grand and lofty
tumbling for tho sake OF advancing his aspi.
rations for the Presidency; but as all Dem.
oerats do not aspire to the Presidency, We
cannot account for the general change upon
any other supposition than growing senti
ment with doughfaces 10 favor of slavery and
slavery extension.
