ma The Charlotte Douglas paper says that Dougla

Das- The Charlotte Douglas paper says that Douglas
and Johnson "the National Democratic Nominees
of the Baltimore National Democratic Convention"
And in another place it says:
ave will stand by the banner of interpention-
hands off in The District Of Columbia-hdnds of in The
States-hdnds of in the Ttrritories-and Congregational
hands off every where and off every thing that is local.
and not manfesty Federal in its eharacter-until its
last stripe shall sink beneath the turbulent blows and
the last in its brancy shall go out forever"
Well, don't like to anybody anything that's
pretty, sink beneath the turbulent bows," but
"mark how plain tale shall put you down." Mr.
Johnson, your candidate for Vice President, cannot
claim the prestige of nomination by any Convention,
at any tme or in any place Moreover, he offered
in the Georgia Legislature set of resolutions, and in
1851 wrote letter, declaring expressly the right of
Congressional protection to slavery in the Territories
whenever territory attempted unfriendy legisationl
While you say hands off," Mr. johnson has said
hands on! Now if you stand by your principles you
must drop johnson, and Johnson must drop Douglas,
and then the bottom of your whole party has dropped
and other "droPpings' will soon follow.

a FAIR ADMIssIoN.-All who heard the dis
cussion in this place. just before the election, be-
tween Gov. Ellis and W. p Bynum, ESQ, the
Bell Elector for this District viii remember that
Mr. Bynum admitted that John c. Breckenridge
'0as good Union mona sound man and q
worthy man. It will be remembered that Mr.
Bynum said that Mr. Breckenridge was a good man
In bad crowd, and told the anecdote of I" little
billy to illustrate what he meant We now ra-
fer to this admission of Mr. Bynum for the pur-
pose of showing that fair political opponent of
Breckenridge Gas Mr. Bynum isl would not charge
him with being dsunionist, as he knew very
veil that the facts would not sustain such charge.
But few Of the supporters of Bell in this State
disposed to be az candid as Mr. Bynum-they are
now abusing Mr. Breekinridge as a disunionist,
from the seaboard to the mountains, in order to
frighten the people from his support. But We
are gratied to say that the opposition Elector in
this District endorses such false charge

No NOMINATED CAND1DATEs.-The Bell and
Everett papers are very anxious to make the peo-
pie believe that Douglas and johnson are the regu
larly nominated candidates of the democratic par
ty. But the fact is, the Douglas men have no
ticket nominated regularly or irregularly. MIR
johnson, their candidate for Vice President, was
never nominated by any body of men even pro-
Tossing to be Convention. The candidate which
the Douglas Convention nominated for Vice Presi-
dent, (Mr Fitzpatrick declined, and some COM
mittee brought out MIR johnson; yet the Douglas
men and the Bell men presume to talk about Doug
las and johnson being the regular candidates! The
fact that the Bell papers favor the Douglas ticket
ought to be sufficient evidence that it is not the
true democratic ticket. Who ever knew the OPP
position party in North Carolina to defend the
regular democratic candidates? The members Of
the opposition party always keen enough to
discern who are the best democrats, and who is
likely to receive the support of the democratic par
ty, and they are never found supporting man or
set Of men who represent the democratic sentiment
of the State Hence we find said opposition, know
nothings and wings, praising and putting up Doug
las and his friends.

Bg What do those States Rights Democrats,
who have always believed in the right of secession
(and who are now supporting Douglas,) think of
Mr. Douglas threats to "whip in" any State that
might think proper to secede from the Union !?
Have they abandoned their secession notions, and
they ready to adopt their leaders whipping
in" notions
The Richmond Enquirer, speaking of Mr. Doug
las speech in Norfolk, says:
In Norfolk, he informed the people that he
would aid aud support the President against any
seeding State. The Democracy of Virginia
taught in the school of '98, believe in the right of
a State to secede, and that State is to be the
judge of the cause of secession. But Messrs Doug
las, Haskin, and the eighteen millions at the North
think differently.
There are upon the Virginia Douglas electoral
ticket several States Rights Democrats-and among
them our valued and esteemed friend G. w. Brent
of Alexandria, gentleman who, some years ago,
was elected to the State Senate as secessionist,
and maintained throughout his canvass with MIR
Shackeford (the Bell elector) the right of seces-
sion. What has Mr. Brent to say to the declara-
tions of his Chief in Norfolk?
This doctrine of eoercing sovereign States, al
though old and familiar at the North, is new and
unaccustomed to the people of the South.
The western Democrat. [volume] (Charlotte, N.C.) 1852-1870, 1860-09-11

pa- 1t is said that had Mr. Douglas not gone,
to Raleigh, his friends who recently met there
would have made proposition whereby all demo-
Gratis could have supported the same electoral tick
et-this was the feeling manifested by the Douglas
men before Mr. Douglas arrived, but after he got
to Raleigh, and expressed his dsapprobation of a
fusion with the Breckenridge men, they (the
Douglas men) boasted loudly about "no compro-
>mise with the secedcrs?' Mr. Douglas apparent
object is to defeat Breckenridge, and he does not
seem to care if Bell carries the State-he knows
he can't get it himself. The Salisbury Banner,
whose editor was at Raleigh about the time of the
Douglas meeting, says
:'The Democracy of North Carolina will mark
the conduct of Stephen A. Douglas. He comes
to this State with the determined purpose of de-
stroying the Democratic party because it dare
choose Mr. Breckenridge instead of him. Finding
that the people had set their hearts upon the gal
liant Kentuckian he resolves to defeat their wishes
by advising a course calculated and intended to
give the State to Bell. Yes, and he finds men
enough to do bis bidding to the extent of their
power and to rush with aacrity to the betrayal of
their party to crafty his personal spleen. We ask
the sterling Old Line Democracy of North Caro-
lima if they are willing to themselves, their
principles and their given over to the enemy
to crafty an unworthy personal feelingn MIR Doug
las? viii they permit this to be done?"

pa- From the way in which the opposition re-
fer to Yancey, Rhett, &c, one might suppose they
we're candidates for the Presidency. For the want
of some truthful charge against Breckenridge and
Lane the opposition "pitch into" Yancey and Rhett
with vengeance, simply because they support the
democratic nominees Admitting, for argument,
that Yancey and Rhett noD disunionists, does
it follow therefore that Mr. Breckenridge is dis
unionist Following the same course of reason
ing, we could convict John Bell Of abolitionism,
because abolitionists and freesoilers support him
Judge Mclean, free-soiler, received as many
votes in the Convention that nominated Bell as
did Gov. Graham of North Carolina, and it would
be Just as fair to argue that Bell is an abolitonist
because he is supported by such men as Mclean,
as it is for the opposition to charge disunionism
upon Mr. Breckenridge because Messrs Yancey
and Rhett support him.
