pictures of fancy Since the Colonel and his party
fooled the people so bad about TIE Pope's coming
over, his terrible pictures about what will happen
when the Democrats are elected, do not brighten
anybody. Col. WHITrHoRSE then came upon the
stand amid the shouts of his friends and in his bold
and eloquent style, went into the discussion. He
boldly announced the platform and primer
pies of the Democratic party showing that
there was now but one issue before the people,
and that the equality of rights under the consti
tuition that this had been the great principle of
the Democratic party since its first organiza
ton and was the same to-day. He then traced the
history of the slavery question from the very fer
nation of the constitution down to the present and
then in reply to Col. TAYLoR's positions, said.
will accept the issue rendered by my competitor,
which is involved in the proposition to be deduced
from his arguments:
lst He said that the North had observed in good
faith the Missouri Compromise.
I'd He says that the North were true to the Com
promise Measures Of 1850
3D. That the South, under the lead of the Demo-
cratic party. violated these Compromises, aided by
few Wings who left the party in the passage of the
Kansas and Nebraska bill, out of which grew the
| Republican party.
/ Now deduce from this argument that if my
competitor is right in these propositions, then the
logical conclusion is that the existence of the Black
Republican party was proper and right to vndicate
good faith and resist the violation of the Compro-
misses Against these propositions take issue, and
accept the defence of the South" He then from the
history of country, history ofparties and church
es and TIE testimony of Gen. ZoLLICoFFER leading
member of the Wing party, showed that Col. TAY
LOR's positions were not true, and that the South
had been true to these compromises, and has acted
In good faith to all of her pledges. After having
thus ably and successfully conroverted the positions
of Col. TAYLOR, he showed up the record of JOIN
BELL in its true colors and then challenged his com
pettor to take issue with him upon the Democratic
platform, or upon the record of the candidates fol-
the Presidency. He concluded his speech, which
was the ablest delivered here by appealing tC
the people to rally to the Democratic standard fol-
in it alone could hope for the perpetuity of oul
| Union. Each of them then made their replies, anC
Mr.. WHITTHoENE closed the discussion in his usual
ly happy and triumphant style. boquets of the rares
flowers came showering in upon him from the ladies
amid applause that made the welkin ring.
We have never seen more glorious day for the
Democracy The great principle of equality O.
rights under the Constitution was victorious. Tht
effect of this days work will tell the election day

Coon FOR YoU.-Ex-Gov. WASHINGTON HUNT who
presided over the Convention that nominated BELL
and EVERETT, and who is the leading of the BELL
party, pitching into GREELEY for his present con

tutlonal principles, and to the preservation of the
Uniou than THOMAS RTTCHIE, an editor from the days
OF JEFFERSON to the days Of Pork and who had been
justly styled the " NAP0IEoS Of the Press.r When
contemplating the refractory course Of Mr.. BELL,
and the eight Southern Wing members of the House
who under his influence, were induced to cooperate
with the free-soilers in defeating the Compromise
measure introduced by Mr.. CLAYTON, a Wing Senator
from Delaware, he said through the Washington
Union, of August 2, ls4S.

serves to postpone the struggle until the passions

amicable adjustment increased. In this fermenta-
ton Of the passions the Union itself is in danger"
If the gray-haired veteran who wrote these ad-
monitory words in lS4S was living and should re-
iterate them in 1860 he would be denounced. in COM

1t will only serve to expose their unpatrio.ic pur-

Notwithstanding the late rousing BREcxN-
RIDGE aDd LANE meeting in New Orleans, the Della
says:
at was the largest meeting ever known to be held
in this city during the past ten years. From Royal
to Bourbon street. along Canal street. was one dense
mass OF human beings, every one of whom vOcifer-
ousy cheered in the of the true Democracy of
the South. The balconies along the streets were
thrOnged with the fair sex, who lent their cheering
presence to the imposing and gave demonstra-
tons of their patriotic feelings by the waving of
banners arranged for the occasion. and the cheers
of their truthful voices in the cause Of Breckenridge
and Lane. We do not remember to have seen such
gala scene. Torches in their brilliancy. banners
IN their elegance of design, and transparencies,
bearing appropriate Illustrations and sentiments,
caused this meeting to be the best indication OF the
true and undivided political sentiment of New Or
leans"
Even the Picdpue, the BELL and EVERETT organ,
admits the magnificent and imposing nature OF the
turnout, which to have been in striking con-
trast with the DOUGLAS izzIe which took place in
New Orleans some weeks ago.

STEWART COUNTY, Aug. 30, 1860.

STEWART COUNTY, Aug. 30, 1860.
Eiitors Of the Union and American: Yesterday
was a glorious day for the Democracy of old Stew
art 1t was day to which the Democracy looked
with no little anxiety, expecting that our young
champion would be cha'Oed up by the great House,
whose elouuence we were told could not be equaed.
At 10 o'clock A. NJ, Mr. MCCAIN took the stand AMI
violently beat the air for oac hour and half, at
tempting to prove little SeUe the regular nominee,
and BRECKENRIDGE tool in the hands Ofrdo head and
bloody bones YANCET. But we noticed that during
the whole course of his labored effort he never had
anything to say against Mr.. BEIL-hIs charges were
directed for Mr.. HAYWOOD to answer But as every
thing must have end, so Mr.. MCCAIN at last came
to a close. At the close of his remarks the BELL
men flor there are no DOUGLAsites here) tossed up
their hats and seemed well pleased at the effort.
Then came Col. House. He pursued the same
course that all of their speakers do, fraud
ruption, disunon, YANCEY! YANCEY YANcEY but
never alluded to DOUGLAS or LINCOLN. His charges
were also directed for Mr.. HAYWOOD to answer;
thus you see gallant BOB has both to fight, and
he does it most nObly and with telling effect.
When Ir House closed Mr.. HAYWOOD took the
stand and we never heard more successful vindi-
cation of the National Democracy. 1t was a noble,
convincing, eloquent, crushing argument for one
hour and half Mr.. HAYwOoD cheered
throughout the whole of his speech, frequent
y wringnS applause from his political enemies, by
his stirring eloquence. He answered Mr.. HOUSE
upon his charge of extravaganza, corruption, dis
union, most successfully. The BELL men are now
wearing very long faces about here. If you men
ton the discussion of yesterday to of Them his
answer is, " Oh, McCdnn oohlpped both House and
HAYWOOD" This, Messrs. Editors, is significant
fact.
But will close by stating that our banner Is in
safe hands. Our Bob " is doing mastery service
for our cause.
On the 18th instant the Democracy of Dover
planted hickory pole at the court house, ninety
one and half feet in length. The banner of BRECK
NRIDGE and LANE floats at its top. You may listen
for good report from old Stewart in November
