prejudice, about twenty in defining
Popular Sovereignty, and twenty more
in defending it aud Stephen A Douglas
Considering that he had nothing to talk

party.
The aeyt speaker npon the stand was
the Hon. VIM. Vandcycr, our present
Congressman from this District, and the
Republican candidate for re election
Mr.. Vandcvcr spoke an hour and a
quarter, that being the length Of time
assigned him by the Democracy. He
exposed the sophis.ries Of Popular Sow
ereignty to the complete satisfaction OF
every man who had not his mind barred
against truth and reason. His descrip-
ton and showing exposed Douglas az
one Of the greatest Demagogucs Of this
or any other age. The Republicans
we're highly pleased with his efforts, and
for once were thankfulto the Democracy
-or rather TO Mr.. Samucls for the priv
ilege extended to Mr.. Vanaevcr to ad
dress the meeting. He was followed BY
! Mr.. samuels, who spent about fifteen
minutes in illustrating the perfection
to which regular system Of BLACKBOARD
ism can be carried. The remainder Of
his speech consisted wholly Of kind Of
low political pettifosing, and perversions
Of history, for which he has already &C
quired an unenviable reputation. We
Intend to say more Of his speech here
after.
| After the speaking was concluded,
the pole which had been undergoing re
pairs, very detrimental to its length, was
successfully raised, but it being few
| feet shorter than the miserable bass
wood 6xin," the glory Of thu thing had
departed.
We have omitted 70 mention the FRO
cession in the morning, which after all
the delegates from the varioss townships
had arrived, consisted Of line Of eight
teen wagons, trailed about our town
cheering some Of our peculiar institu
tons, not excepting our next door neigh

The Democratic Convention.

We have room to say but little Of tli
affair. Considering the scarcity Of Dem
ocrats in our county the thing was jus
about one half Of success; and whethe,
that success was not in favor Of Repub
licanism, We have not yet fully decided
Ono thing however is certain, that the
cause Of Republicanism sustained no in
jury from tho meeting.
Great preparations were made for
nearly week previous to complete a
large pole that would greatly surpass
1.-THE miserable Eastwood Skin Of the
Republicans" The POLE was at length
completed, but upon measurement prov.
Cd to be shorter than the .bsssvood
iixin.' This was sorry mistake which
was remedied by putting in another
splice making it few feet longer than
tho said "6xin.' This occasioned con
siderable inward chuckliog BY our
friends and manifested itself in half
suppressed smiles and grins, which were
INTENDED Is soon as the pole was raised
to burst out in the tallest kind Of long

atill up she goes in the middle until she
