The Douglas Vote.

The friends Of Judge Doug las have
shown that they possess mere spirit than
We gave them credit for. Had they all
soted for him, directly, We believe they
would have beaten Breck. as badly in
Penn'a as they have in every other Free
State. We rejoice that there is among
the Democracy a few fearless supporters
of principle, who could neither be pur-
chased By the rewards of Office, nor Sullied
By the threats of 40 insolsni and dominre-
ring slave oligarchy. Though small IN
numbers, the Douglas party is the strength
Of the Democratic organization, and l:
there is a day Of resurrection for it, the
friends Of Douglas, who voted against the
Buchanan Breekiuridge Fusion scheme,
will enjoy the advantage Of q strong 20
sition in that day. The race Of Northern
doughfaces i. nearly run out, aud the sup
porters Of Breekinridge will fad that they
can never command the respect OF the hon.
es, masses until they have purged them
selves of the mean spiri, Of subservlency
to the behests of the slave power, ard
prove themselves loyal to the Constitution
Of their Country and the Cuion Of the
States. The power of the slave rropasan
da has departed, and that patty 10 The
North which would pcrpe,uate It's reign,
declaring that "slavery is national aud
freedom sec;ionsl,' must 60 down with 1t
The Northern Democrat must be loyal 70
the sentiment of the North. Freedom j:
national, and slavery sectional. In the
election of Tuesday, the people of the
United States settled the question for al
time to come.

plantation IN Washington county. Alarge

the Battle was at the landing, and called
for the distinguished gentleman. He
came forward, and spoke for about twenty
minutes. He declared that be was in ia
vor Of the maintenance of the Union, uu-
der the Constitution, and said the Admin

both Houses Of Congress were opposed to
his policy, and if tue South Kept her men,

carry out a single measure of Republican,

crowd, aud the Senator remarked that be

This short sketch is the fulfiiiment Of
that promise, "that if we wca,hercd the
hurricanes and yellow fever on the coast
of Cuba during the summer, you would
again hear from me-" We are again
bound Cor the Warrington Navy Yard,
for general "fx up" Our little craft
having unavoilatly got aground several
times during this cruise, and her copper
sheathiDg being very foul with barnacles,
thus decreasing our speed, it is though,
necessary to clean aud examine it BY dock
ing the vessel. We will also take the op-
portunity to paint the ship, and pat the
engines aud boiler in better order. We
have had new cylinder sent out to re-
place the broken one. Although We have
very successfully used the repaired cyIiu-
der for over six months, during that time
the engine having made over six millions
of revolutions, driving the vessel through
all sorts of weather for more than twelve
thousand miles without any seeming de-
feet, yet this is too fne an opportunity to
lie, pass. Life at sea is full enough of
unavoidable risks, without making useless
experiments in saving. In selecting or
building vessels or machinery for the use
of the Navy, efficiency in any emergency,
and not niggardly economy, should be
sought. The vigor and respectabili'y
Of our Navy suffer terribly through the
political jobbing that forces SO much con-
temp,ibIe and imperfect workmanship to
represent our country in foreign seas.
The prospects are Frightening in this re-
spect, although at present We are burdened
with some of the basest specimens Of this
partizau management. The spoils Of the
Paraguay expedition are not yet "used up"
Since my last letter to you, we have not
caught any more slavers, although we
came very near falling in with the fine
steam SLAYER City Norfolk, with her
500 negroes. We we're on the look out
for her, aud had We remained quietly a,
our anchorage for twenty -four hours long.
er in all probability she would have been
our prize. We we're little too energetic,
this time.
The report circulating Of the "Crusader"
having been fred into BY man of war,
borders Oh the poetical. The facts are
these: We were mistaken, BY the Span
iards, for the City-of-Norfolk, and in their
excitement they fred blank cartridge as
a signal for US to show our ensign. On
nearing us, We boissed our flag aud fred a
gun, at the same time letting them know
that We we're Americans and man.of-
war. An apology Vas Immediately made
BY the Spanish commander, and all was
