Democratic Meeting.

Pursuant to notice, the Court House was crowded
last night by citizens assembled in attendance on
Democratic meeting. A large number went away una
BILE to get in The bills for the meeting only put
up the morning of the day on the night of which the
meeting held, and no speakers were announced by
name The large attendance on such inadequate notice.
shows the rapidly growing interest in political affairs
D'B. Guitar, Esq, President of the Young Mems
Democratic Association presided and the meeting was
ably and eloquenty addressed by talented young
Democratic friends, T. Brown Jr. ESQ., and James A.
Wright, ESQ.,, Sub-electors for the County. Both
speeches creditabe to the gentlemen by whom they
were delivered. Mr.. Wright, having been present at
Baltimore during the week Of the Convention, and on
the floor of the Front Street Theatre was able person
ally to reute the assertion that Douglas had at any time
received the necessary number of votes to constitute him
the regular nominee of the Democratic party in
dance with the rules and usages of that party. Mr.
Wright successfully combatted the adverse positions as
sumed by Mr.. Davis in his speech of Monday night.
Both the gentlemen elected rounds Of hearty and de-
served appause.-DGlty Journal, 11th inst.

B@g@ We assure the Herald that we do not desire to
misrepresent Mr. Davis remarks in any particular yet
unable still to reconcile the different parts of his
address of Monday night, arrive therefrom at dis
tnct understanding of his position upon the territorial
question: The Herald itself reports him having de-
nounced the Breckenridge PLATFORM upon this question:
worthless abstraction, while we know that he ad-
vocated what he called " non-intervention )" and we
must confess ourselves unable to see recoect any dis
tincton drawn between his non-ntervention and the

The Pennsylvania Election.

From all the indications, it would appear that Penn
sylvania has gone for Curtin the Black Republican
candidate for Governor The effect of this hardly
be overestimated We hardly think that the majority
of the voters of Pennsylvania much about the ne
gro. We rather think they don't They don't care to
interfere with just in that way. Perhaps they
would be willing let us alone on condition of our
paying them Black Mail The protection which the tar
if now gives to iron is some "a per cent 1t is, near
may be, bonus of "a per cent given to the Penn
sylvania iron maker. 1t the said maker with guar
anteed difference in his favor of ID per cent? cannot
compete with the foreign manufacturer surely it is un-
reasonable to ask us to pay We have railroads
to build ploughs to make horses to shoe-a thousand
useful and necessary things to do with iron then why
should we be made to pay tribute raroads-our
agriculture-our machinery, simply that Pennsylvania
lron-masters may get rich at our pense? They buy
our cotton rice, turpentne at its original mar
ket price, unprotected and unenhanced by any tariff
why should public works, manufactures, our
agriculture pay them and crushing bonus
upon everything in the way of iron entering into their
construction operation?
If the demand for tribute on hand, and submis-
sion to its payment the other, be the condition OF
Union what may we ask is that Union worth? Is it
Union of EQUALS? Or is it Union of masters and
saves Surely fellow citizens of Pennsylvania must
be very confident Of their strengthvery certain
of our weakness and mbecity when they deliberately
and undisguisedly make this ISSUE In good highway
phrase, it is Y our money your life" They think
ike the shoe and bootmakers of Massachusetts, that the
North cannot make boots enough to kick out of the
Union for we have heard this very thing said by men
who oade and make goods for the Southern MARKET
We deprecate disunon but think it quite possible
that we could be kicked out of the Union. Were we
member of the Legislature would authorize the issue
OF no bond for carrying public improvements without
expressly providing that it should not directly or ind
recty be used to purchase Pennsylvania ironWe wonld
put such excise upon the sale of such iron within
North Carolina as would teach them that the South
and particularly the State of North Carolina, is not
quite at their mercy
! We trust that the coming session Of our Legislature
will at least use all It's constitutional powers in this d
rection if in none other. Hoerer far North Carolina
goes, we go with her.

DIsUNIoN MEN.-We have commended more than once
that nearly all the most ultra reeaters Of the South
now Douglas men, and are charging dsunion upon the
supporters of Mr.. Breckenridge.
Now, there is John Letcher, Governor of Virginia.
He is redhot Douglas man. John Letcher, the afore
said redhot Douglas man, his first message to the
Legislature of Virgina-his inaugural, think they
call it, used the following language:
The 'irrepressble conflict doctrine announced and
advocated the ablest and most distinguished leader of
the institution of African slavery wherever it exists and
GCOd be dSlOydt to Virginia and the South If did not de-
clare that the election Of such entertaining such
nleTtS and advocating such DOCTRINES ought TO be resisted
by the SldUehOdlg StdeS The idea of permitting such
to have the control and direction of the army and
cia and executive officers (postmasters incuded cannot
be entertained by the South for q moment"
How can John Letcher swallow Douglas coercion
speeches? Is he not disloyal to Virginia and the
South when he fails to denounce Douglas sentiments
And Herschell V. johnson, who, in 1851 said:
The riqh of secession must be 1.,ainained II is The
last the only hope ofte SOut Let maintain IL 0ih
Gdnin and hold az check the Splrlt Of abolition
and consolidation. But we yield it, the whole theory OF

II zoe yield IT. tce not only proclaim al ddodnce that ace aod

These be the men that form the head and front Of the
party that denounces John c. Breckenridge and Joseph
Lane as disunonists!

The Thing Done, and How II was Done.

The elections in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana
have come and gone What do they showS
First as regards Pennsy lvania. We all know that
Mr. Foster is badly beaten We see that the Bell and
Everett party has merely nominal existence in that
State polling for its local candidates in PHILADELPHIA
only about five thousand votes out of aggregate Of
some eighty-one thousand. And Philadelphia is the
seat of the Bell aud Everett strength in Pennsylvania
Again Mr. Forney and other confidential Douglas men
in Pennsylvania demanded of MIR. Foster, the Demo
cratic candidate for Governor, that he should declare
openly and decidedly bis preference for Douglas and
against Breckenridge This Mr. Foster would not aid
did not Co. and Mr. Forneys Press warned the Douglas
men against trusting Mr.. Foster Did Mr. Forney and
the other intimate Douglas want Foster elected
did they want Curtin We think it evident that they
wanted Curtin, else why should they have demanded
that Foster should have taken step that must have
rendered his defeat certain Tor they knew that without
the support Of the friends of Breckenridge Curtin could
not be defeated. Failing to force the Breckenridge
men off, they gave the to sufficient number of their
own followers and they spread dsrust among Others and
the result is before Mr. Forney advised against repo
sing confidence in Foster, and now, since the election,
says plainly that because Mr.. Foster would not come
out for Douglas and squater sovereignty large num-
Der of the Douglas cast their votes for Curtin the
Black Republican candidate for Governor.
We must now be satisfied to fight the fight single
handed. Evidently Bell is nowhere and Douglas has
only power for harm. We best nulity this latter
power by boldly meeting and defying it, We ought to
have done so at once, and all the time.
So far as anything like cooperation is concerned Mr..
Douglas and Mr.. Douglas friends oppose that They
get up straight Douglas electoral ticket in Pennsyl-
vania in opposition to the regular Democratic electoral
ticket already in the field Occasional" understood
to be Mr. Forney) speaking Of this matter in
ncation from Washington City says, speak that OF
which I know, when tell you that Judge Douglas him
self looks to you of Pennsylvania to maintain your
(Dougas) electoral ticket intact and pure"
The whole thing is too plain for any mistake.

What Some Say.

Some say that the election of Curtin as Governor of
Pennsylvania eectualy closes the Presidential contest
That with the success Of the Opposition in that State
vanished the last hope Of being able to defeat Lincoln IN
any Northern State and that of course his election must
now be conceded, it wanting only formal ratification
at the polls.
"Other some view the matter differently, more hope
fully. They say that the triumph Of Lincolnism in
Pennsylvania is mere apparent than real That Curtin
had to deny being Republcan-that he thus got votes
that he could not have got had he proclaimed himself
Republican, and votes that Lincoln will not get They
say as an instance of this that Mayor Henry, of Phila
delpha, elected to thai position by the Peoples Par
ty and one of the most Influential leaders of that party
in the whole State voted for Curtin the candidate Of
this socaIed Peoples Party but openly says that he
will not vote for Lincoln.
They further say that the result of the Pennsy lvania
election has been to compel all the parties opposed to
Lincoln to make an honest and sincere fusion in New
York and it is believed that no effort will be spared in
that State.
Now these are the specuations and they about
the ground. We lean to the hopeful view of the
case perhaps because we wish to do So We wish to be
leve that there is still hope left of being able to avoid
the miseries Of divided country which all must regard
az not impossible result of Lncons election, and we
wish also to see the election made by the people that
may escape the exciting scenes the examinations and re-
examinations that have never failed to accompany and
follow the election Of President by the House of Re
representatives. By concentrating the whole Southern
strength upon Breckenridge and Lane we will be in po-
ston to avail ourselves of any conservative action or
action atthe North. The South being unit the vote of
any conservative Northern electors will ofc course be cast
with the united South and thus the dangers and diff
culties of an appeal to the House be avoided AS Mr.
Breckenridge is the only candidate upon whom there
any chance of uniting the South, why should not the
union upon him be open, hearty and unreserved.
But we need not attempt to disguise the fact that the
prospect generaly -we mean at the North-is aWfuly
overloaded.
