GOLD Nine IN Bucks County, PA.-The
DoyIestown (Pa) Democaat, of the 2lst inst,
publishes letter from VIM. E Dubois, assistant
Assayer at the Philadelphia Mint, which states
that gold is contained in lead ore or gaena,
from New Britain township, along the North
Branch creek, within three miles of Doylestown
This ore, according 10 the assay, would produce
not quite ten cents worth to the ton. Hardly
enough to create much of rush to the "dig-
gins" we think.

SENATOR DOUGLAS IN NoRFoLK.-The speech of
Senator Douglas in Norfolk Saturday night, was de-
lvered from the portico of the City Hall, and was
heard by nearly 5000 persons, including large
number from the surrounding counties Heavowed
and argued fully the doctrine of squat.er sovereign
ty From notice in the Norfolk Herald We take
the following:
He said that this was his first visit to this city,
and he had just been handed slip from newspa-.
per, in which two questions had been propounded
to him, and although he felt under no obligation,
under the circumstances, to do So still he would
answer them, but claimed st the same time that
they should also be put to the candidate Of the Sc
cessonists and answered by him. These questions
were: 'r.'EtH5
"If Abraham Lincoln be elected President of the
United States will the Southern States be justified
in seeding from the Union?
"If they secede from the Union upon the inaugu-
ration of Abraham Lincoln, before he commits an
overt act against their Constitutional rights, will
you advise or vndcae resistance by force to their
secession p
He emphatically and unhesitatingly responded to
the first in the negative. In regard to the second
he frankly declared that he would counsel the adop-
ton of precisely such measures as were taken by
"Old Hickory" in the case of the South Carolina
nullifers The right Of revolution he fully recog-
nized but would recommend it only as last resort
from oppression, and to be appealed to after every
other means Of redress should fail, and when the op-
preston became more intoerable than the conse-
quences Of q revolution.

w The Fayetteville Carolinian having taken
down the names of Breckenridge and Lane, defines
its position as follows:
"Our readers will doubtless be surprised to see
that we have taken down the names of Breckin-
ridge and Lane. and have left the place blank We
do this, not that we have changed our views with
reference to the patriotism and ability of the men
or the principles which they represent Personally
and politically, Mr.. Breckenridge is our model for
statesman, and nothing would please or delight US
more than TO see him President Our object is to
be free to make propositions and present and receive
overtures, that in November we may be united
party. That Mr.. Douglas is safe statesman, no
man with his senses can deny, and his cairs and
those of his supporters Democrats entitled to
weighty consideration Let us then reason together
Surely we have common alma common end in
view! Certainly, men who have for years battled
together for the cause of the Constitution. the
Union ann the rights of the States, can still be
found shoulder to shoulder. We have nothing in
common with either the black Republican party or
the party falsely and outrageousy called the Con-
stitutional" party The one has for its object the
subugation Of the slave States to dependencies the
other, the enactment of protection tariff to enrich
capitalists and Northern manufacturers, and to per-
secute and expatriae men because of their faith or
place of BIRTH"
