From the Cincinnati Gazette (Blnek Republican,
1t would be highly amusing, were the distresses
of opponents less Visibly painful, TO see what
devices the Douglas leaders resort to, in order to
prevent the utter disruption and dsbandng of their
party since the elections of the 9th instant. The
Little Rebel himself overtaken his travels by the
terrible news-tenfOld more disheartening than his
worst apprehensions--lOses none of his accustomed
audacity. He gets up before intelligent audiences,
and boldly declares-at Dubuque and elsewhere
that he owes his defeat to the Breckenridge men
We're this strictly true what of it? What consola-
lation is there in the fact? What reason had he to
expect anything else J.? All through his protracted
pilgrimage in search of his maternal parent has he
not been most defiant towards that party most in
sultng and abusive in his language towards Brock
nrdge and his supporters and most scornful in his
denunciations of everything like compromise with
such traitors and dsunionists? After all this the
bitter lamentations of Douglas that the friends of
Breckinrikge have cut him in Maine, Pennsylvania
Ohio and Indiana, come with an Exceedingly i'll
grace. That is not "dying game" The DOuglasites
ought to be ashamed of such leader.
In point of fact, however, the pusilanimty of this
complaint is only equaled by its ingratitude. In
Maine despite the insolent conduct of Douglas to-
wards them all occasions, the Breckenridge party
almost to man voted for Smart. the Democratic
candidate for Governor, Notwithstanding his Doug
lasism. In Pennsylvania, Foster who was so over
whelmingy beaten in the late contest, at heart
R Breckenridge man, SO understood and If he owed
MS cereal 70 any DeIhocfatlc uelecuon cdS HOtO-
rioLSly TO that of the Douglas ICING. This, Douglas
ought not to be ignorant of. This Col Forney, his
chief Pennsylvania supporter, virtually comedies.
As for Ohio and Indiana it is doubt true that the
great bulk of the Breckenridge votes went to the
Douglas candidates. In both States they declined
making nominations of their own As Democrats,
prOportionally very few of them in spite of the Bit
ter prOvocatiOns of Douglas, have brought
themselves to vote any other ticket. Exceptions
may exists the rule cannot have been as Douglas
asserts
The plea of Douglas, then, is untrue, 1t is mean
ly ungrateful. 1t would he irreveent and foolish,
even if strictly in accordance with the facts. 1t
could afford no ground of hope. Men that repudi-
ated Hendricks for Douglasism, would not vote for
Douglas himself. 1t amounts to nothing Vindi
cation of himself 1t nsolenty repes all assistance
from that quarter in future. Yet this is undoubt-
eddy the best that Douglas can say for himself and
it shows how hopeless he now regards his condi-

Howard and HAY wood in Haywood.

DRowNsyH.LE, Tenn, Oct 20.
EDITORS UNION AND AMERICAN Col John X. How
ard and r. W. Hay Esq. spoke here on Satur-
day. Moses White, Esq, also had Appointment
here on the same day and division Of time was
agreed upon. Mr.. Haywood opened the discussion.
He presented forcibe argument upon the influence
a United South would have upon Northern senti-
ment, and appealed strongly to Tennessee pride and
honor to maintain her integrity and equality in the
Union, without attempting to excite any feeling Of
disloyalty or wpnt of devotion to the Union.
Mr.. White followed in real BellEverett style
evinced deep concern for Douglas and was unable
to say much for Bell. Col Howard closed the dis
cussiOn. with speech we have rarely heard equal
led. convincing in argument, and touching in alu-
sion to our past history and to the party in
debted to Tor our prosperity as a nation.
If we had had suca speeches as Col Houard's
and Gov. Jonsons early in the canvass there would
not have been vestIge OF DOuglasism left, in our
opinion.
I'VE arc constantly gaining, and if necessary
could name our accessions.

get many votes in this Congressional District as

from the Bell party. aO,o he win get some from

WHAT DOUGLAS EXPECTS TO DO IN ALABAMA We
suppose that nc person except an idiot expects
Douglas TO carry Alabama; there is about much
prospect of his doing So as there is Of his getting
the vote of South Carolina Then what business
has he here, if it is not to divide the Democratic
party, SO as to give the Know Nothings chance to
carry the State. His track through the United
States is now indicated by a succession Of Adolf
ton triumphs, leaving hardly hope foT the South
to escape from the alternative Of submission
sistance; and we suppose his Southern tour is to
weaken the moral force that unity would give us;
and also to show to Lincoln, that there are men in
the South who win swallow anything that is suf-

The New York Jounalgf Commerce (Brec&inridge)
discusses the black race at home, in Africa, and
elsewhere and in conclusion says;
We may safely say, also, that scarcely fraction
of the people of the United States are IN favor OF
now freeing the slaves. Why then, In the face of
the well authenticated facts we have stated, do the
Abotionists fanatics, and many leaders of the Re
publican party persist in their wild and reckless
theories, whose development is dragging the Union
to the verge of the precipiee? To raise up the
great African race from serfdom to condition OF
advancement and civilization, or to place them in
position where every favor and liberty ard right,
social and political shall be allowed them just as 1t
is allowed to the whites, is possibility of which we

These documents speak for themselves. In an
swer TO the inquiries contained in the above letter
state that Ex-Governor Bebb resided in this
city for some months. While he professed TO be a
supporter of Bell and Everett it is said that shortly
before he left home, he made speech before the
Bell Club. in which be stated in substance that "as
he lived IN Tennessee he would support Bell but If
he lived in Illinois he would support Lincoln" 1t
is further stated that he has sought on more than
one occasion, in public and private, to defend Lin
coin, and impress the Southern mind that Lincoln
was agOCd man, and would make safe President
And in the speech referred to, announced somewhat
seml-otheially that if Lincoln elected he would
