Republican Progress in the South.

The progress Of Rcpub!icanism in Maryland
and Missouri is marked, and in the latter State
large vote will be polled for Lincoln and
Hamliu. In Maryland the cause is advancing,
and in Baltimore some two thousand German
votes have lately been added 10 the Republi
can ranks. A German republican paper is
published in that city, and the cause Of free
labor is also gaining in many of the counties.
Little Delaware is so thoroughly reused and
organized, that the united Opposition conf
IDENTIFY expect to wrest the State from the Pro-
Slavery Democracy in November.
The recent republican mass meeting at Viii
mngton, was the largest political gathering
ever held in the State of Delaware.
Washington City is feeling the influence Of
the liberal spirit of Repubicanism, and is fast
becoming more tolerant The Republican As
socation of the Dis rict has Wigwam, and
enthusiastic meetings are.h held in the capacious
hall. A Republican Glee Club adds to- the
meetings. A Wide Awake Club is being or
ganized at the National Capital, which prom
ises to very large in numbers, The prospect
of Republican success is great civilizcr in
the Democratic slave bear-ssartlen.
In Western Virginia Rspuhlicanism is fast
gaining ground, and Lipcoln liberty poles are
permitted 10 stand and ay tho Tag Of freedom.
Ranubliean organizations exist in several
counties. meetings are held aud speeches made
without mob muleststion The tone Of the
Democratic press m middle and eastern Vir-
ginin is less violent against Lincoln and bis
success than against Repuhlieanism is 1885,
The irrepressible conflict" in the ranks Of
the Democracy seems to have libeaalized both
wings towards Honest Old Abe F" and his
supporters.
In Kentucky the Republican cause is ad-
vancing aud were the vote by ballot in that
State, Lincoln and IIamlin would make
handsome poll. As it is, they will get quite
vote. As an evidence Of Kentucky progress
we have Ia record the organization OF Wide
Awake Club in the city of Newport! Thua

HONESTY THE BEST POLICY.

1t was ore cold November day that poor
tailor, with his wife and children around him,
sat brFiiy at work in his shop, beside stove
which contained but handful of Goals The
man looked pale and haggard, and the wife
very feeble The children sat idly about he
room, often crying with cold and hunger, but
their parents had nothing with which to com
fort them.
Presently a stranger entered the shop, look
as if be we 10 great haste. He wanted TO
have o scam which he had aecidently ripped
IN his coat scwed up; and when the tailor had
finished the job. the gentleman, seeing how
poor they seemed TO be, took out his purse
and gave him dollar.
Their thankfulness for even this slight re-
lief nsey be imagined. and blessing God Cor
help in time of need, the tailor went out at
once and expended the money in provisions for
them warm willie eating it.
After the table was cleared away the moth
er took broom and began TO sweep up the
room, when she noticed a small package lying
upon the floor. She picked it mp, and open
ing Il, saw to her amazement that it contained
bank notes to the amount of several hundred
dollars. She instantly remembered the gen.
tlesnan who had cvme in that day to have his
coat mcaded, and felt convinced that the mo-
ney belonged to him.
She turned TO the children, and told them
to go and play in another room for a little
while; then she went up to her husband, and
placed the roll Of bills in his hand. He shar-
ed hrr convictions that the money was the
property Of his morning customer-but for u
mement he hesitated TO consent to her sugges-
tion TO make an effort to restore it to the
owner. Satan whispered temptingly in his
ear
"Ie is richie viii never miss it-you are
poor---it win put you and your children above
want for years-keep it.
But he list encd to this evil suggestion only
moment-tlrcn resisting the temptation, he
rose ard pnt away the money in safe place,
rsolving never to touch il till it should be
called for.
The very next day the stranger again entered
the little shop, as the tailor and his family
were seated ut their seanty meal. The tailor
went forward to meet him, and asked at once
ii he had come IN search Of something he had
lost. The geHtlcnian's eountenance brighten
ed ;The replied that be had. and named the
amount of money contained in the roll, and
the banks from which the bills were issued
The tailor went Immediately TO the Place
where he had pnt away the package, and
brought it forth to its proper owner. The
gentleman glanced over the notes. and seeing
that they were all correct. took out two fifty
dollar bills and placed them in the taior's
hand, saying, he did so:
Honesty is always sure of reward. You
will find that it is always the best policy.

not only of varying his doctrines, but of con
cealing them when he chooses
QUESTION TO JUDGE DUGLAs UNANSWERED
| AUGUSTA, Muiue Aug Is, 1860.
| As Judge Douglas, when he was here on
Thursday last, declared with strong emphasis
that, as National candidate iortbe Psesiden-
cy. he had no opinions to conceal none but he
was willing to avow IN -say part OF the Uniaan,
q very respectable citizen of this place, who
was invited to scat on the stand with him,
put into his hands the following question. which
he was most respectfully requested to answer
in the course of his remarks. The Judge on
receiving it, lit was before he rose to speak J
read it very atteDtively, and, resuming his con-
versation with the gentleman who offered it,
respectfully acquiesced in the propriety Of the
question, and promised to reply in the course
of his speech
Will Judge Douglas be so kind as to oblige
fellow citizen by stating before the people
here assembled his answer to the following
QUESTION
LII <Df
the United States, wonld you carry out the
doctrine that the people of Territory, before
! it becomes a State, have the power, under the
Federal Constitution and notwithstanding the
bred Scott decision, to prohibit or exclude
Slavery therefrom?

+" Do you affirm that the people of Terri
tory have the constitutional right to crush the
coekatrice's eggs, as soon as these are deposit
ed in its nest by the propagandists of Slavery,
or must they tolerate the incubation, and wait
till the eggs become full grown and active vi
pers, that can be pursued and externlinated
only by the newly created sword of State au-
thority.''
With this question before him, which he
promised to answer. the Judge arose and adj
dressed the people for un hour and half but
for some cause or othcr--you can judge what
as well AS f--he not only did not answer the
question, but very carefully avoided al allu-
sion to it
We submit to the Louisville Democrat
whether there was not enough variety in the
above manifestations Of Mr.. Douglas views TO
stop all complaint on that score forever ,.
And we submit to the people whether IA more
thorough deniagogue ever lived than the man
who has such convenient opinions.
