4 EaIsehOod Exposed.

IN his Memphis speech, Mr.. YANCEY read
an extract from letter purporting to be
written to the Newark Adcatiser by CORES
pendent at Tcrre Haute, Indiana, in which it
was stated that 1.-The Hon. Emerson Etheridge,
Of Tennessee, Oh his return from Washington,
was the guest of Col Thompson, of Terre
Haute. for L few days, and when in the city
was sercnadcd by his political friends, when
he made a speech aud exhorted them to cast
aside all ideas of supporting Bell ticket in
Indiana, and give their united support to Lin
coin. He advised them that all the efforts of
the united Opposition should be directed to
the overthrow of the Democratic party, which
Guild only be done by defeating their candi
dates in as many States as possible. He said
if he lived in Indiana he would vote for Lin
coin, but as be lived in State where his own
ticket had chance, he would vote for Bell"
Mr.. ETHENDGE made a speech at Browns
vile last Saturday, and teck occasion to
brand this statement a ''sheer fabrication"
1t appears that there was not the least found
alton for it. We give below from the Mem
phis Enquirer his notice of the falsehood:
Mr.. Etheridge said that the remarks attrib-
uted to him at Terre Haute were a sheer fab
rication, as, in the first place, he made no
speech there before any political gathering.
and secondly, in what he did say, when adj
dressing party which serenaded him, he
never alluded to Lincoln or the Republican
party. He said that he left Washington in
June with his little daughter, and travelled
night and day until he reached Terre Haute,
on his way home, where friend insisted that
he should accept the hospitalities OF his man
sion, ard give his daughter that rest which
she needed He did so, and while there was
announced to speak at public meeting, but
po<itiyeIy declined. Late in the evening,
without any notice, party serenaded hun,
and called for him until he was compelled by
courtesy 10 notice their presence, which he
did by thanking them for their visit, adyis-
ing them to do their best for the election of
Dir. Bell as the only truly national candidate,
aud concluded his five minutes speech by
some caustic illusions to the Democratic par
ty and Mr.. Buchanan; never once mentioning
Lincoln or the Republican party. While in
Terre Haute, he was visited by stranger,
who asked him whether he did not think il
would be advisable to run Bell aud Everett
ticket. in order to beat the Black Republi-
cans; to which he replied that II the gentle
mans only desire was to accomplish that pur-
nose he thought the better way would be to
vote directly tor the Democratic nominees
From this individual. no doubt, the falsehood
and his interrogatOry was merely
as a trap TO catch Mr.. Etherldge. He
said the race in Indiana is between Douglas
and Lincoln, and that he has no doubt the
men there will support Lincoln,
with the view of defeating Douglas, II posi-

Editors Patriot:- Surprising you are desir-
Gus to hear from the different parts of the
State as to political demonstrations, j have
concluded to write. On Monday last, Col.
Temple and Mr.. Thomas addressed the peo-
pie at this place. There was quite a large
crowd in attendance. Temple is an excellent
debater and gave general satisfaction to his
party; he is much better speaker than
Thomas, and throughout the debate it was
evident that the political friends of Mr..
Thomas were disappointed. L heard ono de-
termined Breckenridge Democrat, after the
speaking was over, say that his party did
not have a fair chance; that if they had a
speaker of equal ability to Temple, that
quite different impression would have been
made.
Mr.. Jones, of this county, has accepted the
position of elector on the Douglas ticket.
Thomas refuses to divide time with Mr.. Jones,
and continues that Jones has no right to be
heard at the appointment made by Temple
and Thomas. Temple had no objection to
Jones speaking. Mr.. Jones and his friends
are much displeased at the course of Mr..
Thomas. On yesterday. at Hilham, in this
county, Jones made speech of an hour, az
ter the other two had concluded their debate.
To-day, at Monroe, Mr.. Jones spoke first. and
was heard by large and attentive crowd
for Z hours. The Douglas men in this coun-
ty are very determined in their course and
will never yield. You may rely upon Bell
making considerable gain in this county.
Douglas will get about $50 votes.

From private letter received in this city
from a gentleman now in New York, we are
permitted to extract the subjoined. The wri-
ter is cool-headed business man, and bis
statements are entirely reliable:
New YORK. Aug. 16, 1860.
"When / left Nashville, l deter
mined to mix aboat with the people on every
train of cars I was aboard of, and from the
time struck the Kentucky line | began to
see the excitement At every depot aud sta
ton crowds OF people were gathered and
shouting over the glorious victory in our Sis
ter State As / passed through Ohio and
Pennsylvania, found upon every train ma
jority for Bell and Everett; and upon but one
train during our whole trip to New York,
had Breckenridge a majority over Douglas,
and that was between Nashville and Louis
vile. which vote stood, for Bell 90, Breckin-
ridge 81, Douglas IS, and Lincoln 2. As
came ON |, of course. met friends of all the
candidates, particularly as | neared this city,
for regret IT, say Mr.. Lincoln bas many
friends IN this locality. 1t is, however, graft
flying to me 10 be able to assure you that all
over this Northern country Mr.. Bell is the
second choice of the friends of all the other
candidates. Since have been in this city
have talked with great many business men,
aud | find them all for Mr.. Bell, with here
and there an exception. They say they are
willing 10 vote for any man to defeat the
BLACK RopubiipanS and they can SEQ no
chance to do this and save the Union, unless
they concentrate upon and elect Mr.. Bell,
and they are going TO work with that deter
mination and with full confidence of success.
The late elections in Missouri. North Caro-
lima and Kentucky have inspired the people
in the North with confidence, and the leaves
hardly fall faster from the trees after biting
frost in autumn. than are the friends of Brock
inridge and Douglas deserving them and join
irg the great union of honest conservative
men, who are the only hope Tor the perpetu-
ity and glory of this great nation. l assure
you there is great revolution going on in
this section. Old men, whose silver locks
betOken that they are on the graves brink,
who for years have taken no part in politics.
are going in droves to the political gather
lngs and joining the younger in the lond
shout for Bell and Everett. Old democrats
who have been SO all their lives, are washing
their hands of it and coming out for our
Union candidates.
The same feeling is aroused in Philadel
phia- While there on Saturday last, 1 was
told nv our old friend q that in three hOuses
there adjoining each other (his being one of
them,) there were So to 40 voters, and every
one for Bell and Everett except two. These
are truths that cannot be gotten over, and
tell in tones OF thunder how our party is
gaining ground"

zs- The Breckinridg e organs and orators
have generally abandoned the idea that their
candidates were nominated by irregular dem
ocratic National Convention. They now in
sist that neither DOUGLAS nor BRECKNRIDGE
was nominated by regular Democratic Ma
tional Convention, and are calling Justify on
the rank and file of the former party to
ratify the &C tion of the seeding delegates.
In making this admission they affirm that
the party is disorganiZed and broken up
and that no democrat is bound by his party
relations or party loyalty to vote the BRECK-
INRIDGE ticket Whoever does it, does it
upon his choice, irrespective of previous
party obligations or party usages. As an
independent proposition, then, what cOnser-
vative friend of the Union will vote for Mr.
BRECKINRIDGE, surrounded as he is by dis
uuionists, and espousing as he does the doc
trines upon which they hope to break up the
Union and reyolutionize the government?
We shall see.

THE PARAGUAY CLA1Ms.-Itis finally

THE PARAGUAY CLAIMs.-It is finally an
nounced that Mr.. CAVE JOHNSON, the Com
missioner appointed to examine the claims
presented by certain American citizens
against the Government of Paraguay, has
decided adversely to the claimants, to their
infinite disgust and the chagrih of the Pres
dent. We have little doubt of the substan-
tial justice of Mr.. JOHNSoN's decision, al
though it is understood that the Commits
sioner of Paraguay some time since offered
the American claimants a compromise, which
would probably have covered their actual
losses in the business for the destruction of
which they sought to hold the Government
of Lopez responsible. But we can quite
comprehend the Presidents distress at the
result to which his too faithful Commissioner
has come. The Paraguayan expedition has
been the pet adventure of Old Public
Functionary. To this had dwindled down
by degrees all the splendid programme of
OStend, all the brilliant visions of magnifi
cent foreign policy which attended his ad-
vent to power. Aud as it is the nature of
the President to think no policy fruitful
which merlyfexaltsthe national character and
widens the national influence. it is not at all
surprising that he should overlook all the
really important consequences of the Pa
raguayan Armada to bewail the rejection by
Spartan Commissioner of an untenable
private claim.
The Paraguayan Expedition, with all its
blunders, and mispays. and absuTdities. has
conferred solid advantages on the United
States aud the world. 1t carried our flag
with authority into quarter of the world in
which we had been suffering cur name to be-
come Insignificant, and our7rights TO be made
the sport of lawless factions and arbitrary
despOts. 1t took the moral control of the La
Plata country, and the leading influence in
that vast section Of South America out of the
hands of England and France, and conferred
them, at least for the present, upon the
United States. 1t opened new channels to
commerce, and prepared the way for bold
and vigorous development of American in
terest ia the South Atlantic, should we ever
happily be favored with a Government capa-
bic of undertaking SO important a course of
policy.
If Mr.. Buchanan wishes to employ well the
closing hours of his official life, we can advise
him to cease lamenting the honesty of Mr..
Cave johnson, and to take up the case of
Perm with not less ardor, and more ability,
than was displayed in the instance of Para
guay.--N z. Times. 14h.
