OnnooS.-Sreaking of the probabilities OF
Breckenridge and Lane carrying Oregon,
the Sacramento Bee says:
Somebody has said that Breckenridge and
Lane will not carry Oregon. Let us see
why. In 1859, the Republican and anti
Lane Democrats united upon Logan for Con-
cress against Stout (Lane DemocraD and
Stout was elected by some sixteen majority.
In 1860, the Republicans and anti Lane
Democrats again united upon Logan for
Congress, but Shiel Qane DemocraI) beat
him by some seventy six votes. The oppo-
position in the Democratic party to Lane,
also united, in 1860, with the Republicans
to defeat the friends Of Lane, who were can
ddates for Legislative positions, and sue
ceeded to such an extent only, as to get
possession of one House, while Lane has
the other; so that there may be no Senator
chosen. Now, if the Lane men could hold
their own, and even win, with united OPP
position against them, how much surer will
they be to win when that opposition is di-
vided, and Lane is candidate for the Pres
idency, with some show of success? No
man who was for Lane in the past will be
against him now, when his star is in the as
cendant. Indeed, we shall not be surprised
to find Lane carrying Oregon by large ma.
jority, with all the opposition combined
against him.

Practical Republicanism.

In Cleveland, Ohio, the Republican lead
ers boldly carry out the principles they pro
fess. Being in the majority, they are IN
different about making converts, and are
therefore less reserved in avowng their rea
sentiments. They allow negro children to
sit side by side with white children in their
schools and associate with them at theiI
homes and in public places. Upon object
ion being made to this condition of things
one of the members of the Board Of Educa
tion-all Repvblicans-said:
Il would rather my little girl should sit
beside colored girl, and associate with
her, than by trzzld headed Irish or Dutch
girl
Joshua II. Gddings, one of the patrl-
archs of Abolitionism, and also an ac-
knowledged leader of Republicanism, in a
late State Convention of his party, declared,
that
The negro is Heavenly institution, and
it is God like in man to elevate him to an
equality with the whites
Giddings was one of the leading spirits in
the Chicago Convention, and possesses the
confidence of his party to an unlimited extent.
His sentiments are we'll known and where
the Republicans are strong they endorse
them but where they are weak they think
it prudent to repudiate them. To show
that they approve his sentiments, we have
tie most convincing evidence: The resou-
tions were passed at Republican meeting
in Stark County, Ohio. Here they are
'Resolped That it is not only the duty,
but the interest of the Republican party in
this State, to do all in its power to extend to
colored citizens the elective franchise and
sc do most earnestly call upon that party to
make the subject part Of the State policy.
'Resolped That should the Republicans
give the coored people of Ohio, the e ectlve
franchise, 1t would thereby secure to itself
permanent and unchanging majority in the
State, which would always insure to it the
ascendancy'
Here is practical Republicanism for you.
The resolutions are positive, pointed, unmls-
taxable. In Ohio the Republicans are Meth
er ashamed nor afraid to declare their doc
trnes and opinions, knowing full we'll that
the Republicans everywhere feel as they do,
but deem it prudent for a while to conceal
or deny their real sentiments, in order to
deceive the unsuspecting. Let them once
attain power, and they will throw off the
mask and appear in their true colors-te as
bold and ultra as their Ohio confederates

BslS" The Je6eTsonidn devotes about column
and quarter to an article of on the unsound-
ness of democracy on the slavery question; but we
have neither time nor space for an analysis of his
positions. AS a sample brick of the whole structure,
we copy the following sentence:
There is not an instance in our history. where
the democracy has made single concession to
abolition sentiments.
When democratic Congress and President APP
piled the Wilnot proviso to Oregon was there no
such concession2 If there was not then of course,
we are mistaken in our understanding of the term.
When a democratic Congress and President endors-
ed the Kansas bill which Douglass, Pierce and other
leading democrats declared was better measure of
freedom than the Wilmot provso was there no
such concession? That bill gives to squatters,
whether natives aliens the right to say to citizens
of the South--you shall not come, with your pro-
perry into this Territory, and that right has just
been exercised, in Kansas, by the squatters upon
domain which belongs as much to the South as to
the North; and yet it is asserted that democracy
has made no concession to the abolition sentiment.
This concession Of all that the freesoilers want
it is yielding of the whole ground, and until
this is proven to be concession we shall forbear
to multiply instances; and if the advocrcy of Doug
lass, by southern democrats, be no endorsement of
that concession, language is meaningless and facts
not significant There are other points in the article
referred to, which it would be amusing to notice,
but all hinge upon the one here stated, we will
not trouble the reader with them until our neigh
Dor first satisfactorily disposes of this.
