ANOTHER DOUGLAS ORGAN.-The Lincoln
Journal, one OF the ablest and Oldest demo
ratio papers in the State, after taking some
/. !eekst time to deliberate. has hoisted the
oOUGLAs flag. 1t says:
We have been slow TO enter the arena, we
ave waited and hoped for a restoration OF
% nat harmony which has so long been the
,rengIh and the boast OF the Democracy, we
ave waited until the last ray of hope for a
ltifactory adjustment has faded away, until
ne time has come when every man should
axe his position, uniurl his banner, and do
1. duty TO himself and his country. Having
,Iwavs adhered TO the National organization
We cannot at this day unite with those who
ave Withdrawn from it and set up new
arIy in opposition
When our contemporary of the Union and
InericaR announced that the DOUGLAS
democracy were to be rode over rough
lode,r he thought, doubtless, to repress
the desire of democrats to stick to the
OCULAR organization. But he made mistake
rhe DOUGLAS men don't appear to be at all
scared, but are constantly making accessions
o their ranks. The organ of the LINCOLN
democracy is an accession of Importance.

HE FUSION MovEaENr.


Mr.. Buchanan encourages combinations
with the Douglas men in different States, no.
ping b. that means to prevent an election
by the people, and then, through a violent
and protracted struggle in the house, to
carry it into the Senate for the benefit
of Gen Lane. This is the reason why, in
his speech from the White House, he declar-
ed neither candidate to have been nominated
according to the usages of the party. He also
prompted the proposed coalition in Penn
sylvania, which Mr.. Douglas friends have
spurned. His professed Partially for Mr..
Breckenridge is insincere. The only interest
he feels in the ticket is for Gen. Lane, who
has been supple instrument of his admins
tration throughout. THIS scheme will fail.
no matter how much pressed, for the leading
friends of Mr.. Breckenridge understood Mr..
BuchaRan's game, and have expended nearly
$500 in telegraphing over the country not TO
enter into any arrangement or bargain with
the Douglas faction.
The proposed fusion in New York. by
which the Bell men are 10 be nominally trans
ferred to Mr.. Douglas, but really to Gen
Lane, was really contrived here Immediately
after the Baltimore Convention. Its mana
gers and objects are perfectly understood. If
an election by the people could be defeated,
which is now hardly possible, and is only
contemplated by few desperate managers
as their last hope, and Mr.. Douglas should be
returned to the House as one of the three
highest candidates, he would have but one
vote in that body-Ilinois The present
probability is he will not receive an cleo
toral vote, and cannot be regarded as seri-
Gus candidate.

The Bell and Everett Candidate TO

The Union and American some days ago,
published an item announcing that both the
candidates for Governor in North Carolina
supported BRECKENRIDGE and LANE. We cor
rected the statement Immediately, SO far as
it related to the candidate of our party, JOHN
Pool. We have since seen the following
paragraph upon the subject in the Whining
ton IN. CO. Herald:
John Pool for Breckenridge and Lane
1t is really laugbable. We in North Caro-
lima could almost as easily credit report
that he had come out for Lincoln and Ham

The Montgomery (Ala,) Nail closes brief
article about the present expedition of Gen.
WALKER as follows:
But it issreaiiy time We heard from Greg
Eye. He is man OF business and does not
usually waste time. Ii he manages well and
retakes Nicaragua, in case of the election of
Lincoln, he ought to be able to recruit into
his territory 10000 Southern planters and
their slaves-men who will not live under
Free Soil. rule, while there Is any other spot
Of earth to receive them.
That's the most sensible idea we have seen
In the Maal for some time By all means let
those Southern planters enigrate, who can't
consenttoliye under "fee soil rule, !. although
it be forced upon the country by the suicidal
policy of Southern democracy, and in accor-
dance with the constitution which they pro-
fess to love almost to idolatry. It will bene-
tit them, morally and politically, to have a
little experience of the hardships and dangers
of founding a new republic.
