The STAMPEDE COMMENCED The
evidences OF determin alton on the part
of the Douglas men to vote for Lincoln,
and thus kill two birds with one stone,
are multiplying on every hand This is
the case here and all over the country
Scores of men who have for years acted
with the Democratic party; are ranging
themselves under the banner ef Liuco.n
and Hamlin, determined to crush out the
Southern Disunionists aud the Northern
Traitors who fraternize with them. 1t
is conceded, and justly too, that every
vote cast for Doug las in the Free States
is vote for Breckenridge or old Joe
Lane, jast 10 the proportion that it is
effective in carrying the election into
Congress. The honest supporters of Mr.
Doug las would hundred times prefer
the election of Lincoln to that of either
Breckenridge or cid Joe Lane This is
the first bird to be killed, by all manner
Of means. On the other hand, large
number of them are burning with the
desire to give blow to the South in re-
turn for the treatment they have receiv-
ed during the past three years, and par
ticularly at the Charleston and Baltimore
Convention. They see no other way
half so effectual in accomplishing their
revenge, as voting Lincoln into the
White House. The country is swarming
with this class of Douglas men, and
among them may be counted some of the
most efficient politicians of that persua-
sion

TIE COUNTY CONVENTION.

As will be seen by the call ofthe Com
mite, a County Republican Convention
is to be held here on Friday, the 3ls. of
this month. The Commute considering
that they were instructed to call either a
mass Convention or else to have a prim'
airy election. for the nomination Of the
candidates, chose the former plan. We
hope that this plan will induce the Re-
publisans of the County to turn out en-
masse, so that they may have voice in
the selection of their candidates. Sena-
tor Harlan will be present and address
the people on that day, aud we hope that
the Republicans throughout the County
will come up and hear him, and bring
their Democratic neighbors with them.
Other speakers have been invited, and
their names will be announced when it is
ascertained that they will attend.

the Senate, has made a very favorable
impression on all with whom he has come
IN contact, Ae is truly christian states

that the number Of such statesman is so
small. Senator Grimes, to-day occupies
more influential position in the Senate,
than any other member who has served
so short time. He has not occupied
the time Of the Senate in long winded
speeches, but what he has said has shown
him to be practical, far sighted states
man. There is no State ia the Union
that is more ably represented in the Sen

Dodge and Jones, to Harlan and Grimes,
is great and good 1t is truly reform,
and as reforms do not 60 backward, VIC
may hope and expect that Iowa will new

nothing to them, for they never had
much to lose. Defeat is nothing, for
they are used to it in this State. But

are now, to be compelled to muster under

their greatest trouble and humiliation

NORTH CAROLINA ELECTION.

North Carolina is one of the most con-
servative of the Southern States, and it
was there, if anywhere in the South that
Douglas would be likely to succeed
The election which has just taken place
in that State, has developed the fact that
the Breckenridge candidates are elected
over the united Bell and Douglas ticket,
by from 5000 to 10000 majority. This
ought to satisfy the Douglas men that
Douglas stands no chance Of an election,
and that if they wish to prevent tho sue
cess Of the Breckenridge party, they
must vote for Lincoln.

Era,- The Democrat says that if the
election of President goes into the House,
" fifteen States would vote for Lincoln.
and not another vote can he get by any
possible contingency" That is just
what we have said. Now will the Dem
ocrot tell US how many votes Mr.. Doug
las can get, if he should get his name
there at all We will answer, for the
Hem>erat won't, that Mr.. Douglas would
get one vote, (li!nois,) "and not anoth-
or vote can he get by any possible con-
t'nsency.' Can the Democrat see any

the House! If SO will it name the
States that will vote for him there?

THAT Platform

There is difference of opinion among
Douglas men as to the platform on which
he stands. The Cedar Democrat gives
it one way and says, "The platform pub
lished in the Democrat Is genuine. -
The Chicago Times and Herald, Doug
las home organ, gives it as we have
heretofore published it. When Douglas
own friends cannot agree as to his prin.
ciples, they should not be surprised if
people repudiate him and his principles.
The Democrat says, "The Supreme
"Court gave no decision on that much
"mooted point" Perhaps not. We
have no controversy with the Democrat
about it, but will give what Mr.. Douglas
said at New Orleans, and leave it for the
Democrat and Douglas himself to settle
the matter. Mr.. Douglas said:

Of Illinois, accept the decision eft Su-

Sky Twice the Democrats at the North,
have deceived the people into electing IA
modern Democrat for President; twice
have they elected men who have truck
led to the slave power, and twice have
they themselves been deceived, at least
such is the ease if VIC can believe the
Douglas men Of TO-DAY. The Democrats
were told by their opponents what kind
Of men they had nominated, but they
would not believe then at least they pre-
tended not to believe them, and now we
find so-called Democratic papers de-
nouncing Pierce and Buchanan in worse
terms than We should venture use

they have nominated third man of the

Railroad, or the admission of Kansas, he
can tell more than any man we have ye,
