The Breckenridge Democracy Preparing
for War-Douglasites to renouncs their
Free Sell Heresles, or be Excomu,uni-
Gated.


immediately after the State election, sew.
eral interior democratic papers suggested
a State Convention Of The true democracy,
having for IFS object the. organization and
purgation Of The party. Some Of the Doug
las organs spoke lightly of,he move, others
deprecatingly, and rather begged for peace
and harmony. The notices which follow
below seem 10 show that The Breckenridge.
ties understand what they are about, and
evince little more back: bone than we
thought they possessed. We admire their
pluck, and shall look forward 10 their Con,
venlion with some interest. The Douglas
ties are evidently taken by surprise; when
Senator Green gave in his adhesion to the
State ticket, they thought the Senator had
cut his own, and his party's throat, and that
the whole batch would go under without 8
struggle He, however, ii appears. as well
as his friends, knew whst they were about,
and yielded support TO the regular State
nominees, in order TO strengthen their po-
sitiOn in opposing an irregular national nom
nation. The terms once offered TO the
Douglas adherents are now withdrawn
All parties concede the State TO Bell and
Everett, and while the Union men are re-
cOrding their votes for their patriotic lead
ers, the democratic factions can decide be-
tween themselves which wing is entitled to
carry the old party flag.
Here is the recommendation, the call, and
an endorsement BY the Bulletin:
DsM0cRATIc STATE CoNvENTiOY.
The undersigned, having al heart the well
fare OF the Democratic party, and the sue
cess oil Democratic principles, united some
time ego, with several other citizens Of
Missouri, in suggesting the meeting Of a
State Convention, in which the friends OF
Judge Douglas should be represented, as
well rs thoss Democrats who still adhere
faithfully to The principles OF the party as
enuncialed in the platform OF the last State
Convention. That suggestion has been
rendered nueaiory by The almost unbroken
opposition OF the friends OF Judge Douglas.
We therefore submit 10 those Democratic
voters who continue 10 stand upon the
Missouri platform; and who are resolved
TO defend and maintain the principles enun-
ciated by The National Convention which
nominated Breckenridge and Lane. the ne
cessity of perfecting the organization Of the
party, with view Of conducting The Presi-
Dental canvass in the State energsticalIy
and successfully; and to that end we res
pectfully propose 10 them the assembling Of
State Democratic Convention, concentrat-
ing the strength Of the party in support OF
its avowsd principles, and OF its chosen can.

Bsll in Arkansas.

A correspondent of the Republican,, writ
ing from Randolph county Arkansas, since
the State elections, gives the following
speculations.--
Our election passed off in quie, on
MONDAY last, The result in ihls county
h., nonplrsss.d every calculation prePi-
ously made, and those who were most SAIL
puine have been the worst disappointed,
REcros, who ran against JOHNSON, the
nominee Tor Governor, has majority IN
this Randolph county. ...... ..,r
A. much larger vote has been poiisd ihai'
ever before, which makes the result so
much more surprising. The democratic
party has been completely demoraIlzed by
this result, and il will tell with tremendous
effec, 10 November Tor the Opposition
This county has always been locke upon
as one Of the most reliable Democratic coun-
lies in Arkansas; for several years II was
looked upon as the banner county, and at
this elecllcn it has gone in opposition TO a
regular nominee.
Our State politics are as much confused
and divided as your own, with this differ
ence; yours is tbs democracy VS.. all The
isms; here tits part Of the Democracy and
all the isms combined. At least 5000
Democratic votes will be given BELL and
EVERETT this Fall-more than would have
been had the election resulted differently
As a Democrat, I deplOre this state OF al
fairs.
A convention mas been called to nominate
DoueLAs electors. 1t will meet in Sep
TENDER next. There ia goodly number
oil Douglas men in this State, but whether
there is enough 10 elect the ticket ia No
vember is beyond the knowledge Of his
most sanguine supporters. My. belief is
that BRECxISRIDeE will carry this State,
but if he does il will be by smaller ma
jority than any candidate has received for
several elections. The contest is between
BELL and BREcKINRIDeE."

FUaAcIoUs LOVERS AND FANTASTIC MAR
RIAGE.-The aphoriam that the "eourse of
true love never did run smooth" would havc
been correct, had Shakespeare never uttered
it. It is one Of the fundamental laws of ma
ture that no human being can be truly happy
while sojourning on this mundane sphere; and
just as we feel ourselves sure of obtaining
what is thus forbidden by the cruel hand OF
fate, and just as we commence to congratulate
ourselves upon Our apparent success, cruel
destiny attempts to rob us of our hopes, and
transplant in their stead wretchedness and
despair.
The lover thinks to seize her whose charms
have enthral]ed his whole being, but suddenly
finds tho prize spatched away by the hand Of

himself. What man has done, map can do.

Death Of Thomas Darlington Macaulay

Another son Of genius, another famed child
of fame, has departed to the land Of shadows.
This is the period Of distinguished deaths, and
now Thomas Bsbington Macauley is added to
tho long list Of celebrated authors. As an
esssyist he had no living equal in the languages
as a historian bis style delighted and his
pictures charmed.
He leaves six volumes Of bis history, bring
ing the period down to the close of Queen
Anne's reign, and his various contributions
to tho Edinburg Reuie,O, as monument to
his fame that will outliye perishable marble
and the century in which we dwell.
As one of the masters Of the English tongue,
the literary world Is poorer for his death,
though another vacant niche in "fame's proud
temple" will be filled with the splendid statue
that has long been carved for Macauley tho
Historian.
