There are not two Democrats in Washing

which will call upon those Southern States
misrepresented by the Boilers to fill the
vacancies and re appear at the Baltimore

charge that their purposes was disunion. and
this charge will be pressed upon them by
the Unionists and the National Democrats Of
their respective States do not undertake
to predict the contents or essence of the
Forthcoming Congressional appeal but since
it is given out that its preparation has been
entrusted to Gov. Fitzpatrick and Mr.. Ben

The REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT
The San Francisco Times, of Saturday
speaking of the report (Which has since
proved true) that Abraham Lincoln of Hi
nois had been nominated for President by the
Republicans, says
"He has the credit of being the author of
the doctrine among the Republicans, after
wards elaborated by Mr.. Seward that the
States must, sooner or later, be all free or all
slave. Hence, if he be nominated, there will
be no dodging of issues. 1t will be an open
fight, on principle. He is as radical as Sew
ard ; and the conflict will be as irrepressible
and unmistakable as though the illustrious
Senator from New Y ork were the candidate ~
This is the language of the paper claiming
to be the organ of the Republican party in
California. and the Republicans of the State
coin oi9o ..iil. the s-e~... All ~i.yh4- -ITndAr
the leadership of an "irrepressible conflict"

defeated at the next Presidential election
The more the Republicans avow the doctrine
of Seward and Lincoln the worse it will be
for them, and the better for us. Let them
keep it before the people.
