A CANDID ADM1ss1oN.--Daniel

Blackman, Esq, Douglas candidate for Prosecuting
Attorney in this county, made speech at Cassap-
obs few days since, in the course of which, we
are informed by credible witness, he used the
following language: "That for one, he was salts
fed that Mr.. Douglas could not be elected Presi
dent" While we fully agree with Mr.. Blackman.
stiH We cannot help contrasting the difference be-
tween the Republican party and the Douglasites.
While the former are trying by an open, straight
forward manly fight, to elect odd Abe" by the
people, the friends II of Douglas are trying, by
bargains with Bell and Breckenridge, to defeat him
by sending the election to Congress, there to be de-
cided between Lincoln, Breckenridge and Bell
we'll knowing that whoever may be elected, the de-
feat Of Douglas is sure and effectua How consis-
tent these Douglasites are.

history of the Israeitish monarchy. The origin
under Moses was treated of in the Pillar of Fire,
and its great glory under David, is treated of in
this work. (The Throne of David) while the de-
