Douglas and Lincoln.

We are indebted to a gentleman Of high character
in Warren county, for the following correspondence
containing statement which we deeply regret, but
which our duty to our readers requires US to pub
lish Alfred E. Lewis, we are assured, is gentle
man of unimpeachable veracity. He is nephew
of Ex-Chief Justice Lewis of Pennsylvania The
language attributed to Jugde Douglas is reported to
have been used 10 Mr.. Mcpherson, black Repub-
lican member of Congress, and by him communi-
Gated to Mr. Lewis:
PHILADELPHIA, July 90, 1860.
DEAR SIR :-Refiectag on the important bearing
of the remark made by Judge Douglas to the Hon.
Mr.. Mcpherson, Republican member of Congress
from this State, as stated by you, to-wt, THAT be-
fore the election should 60 to the House he would
throw his influence to Lncoln;" and seeing in For
ney's Press an intimation to the effect have
spoken Of il to Others and wishing to be correct in
my statement you will greatly oblige me by giving
the words as nearly as you can that were used Sy
Judge Douglas. Yours truly,

Breckinridge and Lane Club.

There was an enthusiastic meeting of the Club in
the Courthouse in this City Wednesday night last
j. K. Marriott Esq., in the chair. The meeting ad-
dressed at some length by W. W. Holden and Hon.
L. OBJ Branch
Mr.. Branch took occasion to reply to certain at
lacks which have been made upon him recently, and
to demonstrate his consistency on the subject of
squatter or territorial sovereignty He showed that
at ali times since 1S4S, he had maintained the true
doctrine on that subject; and that on no occasion,
whether in his speeches in Congress- before the peo-
pie or in his Circular of May last had he departed
one iota from the doctrine of non-intervention and
popular sovereignty. He also declared that he had
at no time favored the nomination of Judge Douglas
for the Presidency, though he was prepared with
the Democracy of the South generally to give him
his support in the event of his nomination, protest
ing at the same time against his peculiar views on
the question of territorial sovereignty.
After having disposed of these charges against
himself, Mr.. Branch spoke briefly on the state Of
the country, the dangers with which are threat
ened, and appealed especially to the Douglas men
to unite with the Breckenridge Democrats and thus
carry the State against the Opposition. He said
nothing calculated or intended to wound the feelings
OF Douglas men, but he urged them as Democrats,
as patriots, and as friends to their country to 20
With the majority, and thus heal at once the unfor-
'uhate difficulties now existing in the party. Mr..
b. was listened to with much attention, and warm

The Elections in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana,
and Florida,

Pennsylvania has voted for the black Republican
candidate for Governor by Is, 900 majority the
Democratic candidate, Mr. Foster, who was support
ed by the Douglas the Breckenridge, and Bell men
and conservatives generally. The Republicans have
elected Is to 90 out of the % Congressman, well
as majority in both branches of the Legislature.
Scattering returns from Ohio indicate the success
of the Republicans by increased majorities.
Returns from about 90 Counties in Indiana show
Republican gains. The Republicans have gained
one member of Congress, and elected their State
ticket by large majority.
The latest returns from Florida indicate that the
Democrats have carried the State for Governor and
Congress by about 800 majority.
The result in Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana
leaves but little if any room for hope that those
States will vote against Lincoln. The effect of these
elections Oh New York must and will be felt against
the conservatives. With the lights before US we
confess we entertain but little hope that Lincoln
will be defeated. The rising tide Of black Republi-
canism in the non-slaveholding States seems to be
sweeping every thing before it The eyes of patri-
OTIS everywhere are now fixed on New York.

turesby the Rev. j. NJ. Atkinson, of Raleigh, N. G.
We find the following notice of this new, interest
ing and valuable work in 'The Lutheran" pub
lished in Philadelphia, of September 21st:
"The True Path" is admirably adapted for its
work. 1t is thoroughly evangelical, and yet free
from those pecularities which in many of our best
religious works are matters Of offence to a refined
taste 1t is elevated in style without sacrifice Of
simplicity. 1t has the two great qualities which are
so difficult to combine-a richness and originality
Of thought which commend it to a cultivated mind,
associated with that clearness of expression and
felicity of illustration, which introduce humber
minds to sphere of ideas which, without the hand
Of genuine master, never would have been opened
to them. 1t shows that its author has been formed
and trained by the very noblest influences OF the
best literature and of the purest religious life.
We lay down 1.-THE True Path" with personal
drawing to the author, personal gratitude for
book in which the mind of the Spirit is illustrated
by the sanctitied workings of the human mind re-
generate. We place this book in our choicest list,
with Baxter, Arndt Doddridge, and Bogatzky, to
be circulated by among the class for whom it is
designed. Though it is issued by the Presbyterian
Board, our eye has not fallen upon line in it
which Lutheran might not endorse. The Thr-
teenth Lecture Sovereign Grace the Sinners
Hope" in which it might be imagined that some
thing might be found in conflict with the views Of
our church, is one of the most excellent close and
moving in the whole book, and one it seems to us,
from which 10 evangelical Christian of any school
could withhold his approval"

l am very truly yours,
ALFRED E. LEWIS.

Comment on the foregoing, if true, is unnecessa-
ry. We feel bound to say that Judge Douglass
whole course, since the Baltimore Convention, has
been in opposition to any union of the Democracy
in order to defeat Lincoln He has assailed Mr.
Breckenridge politically in severe terms-he has de-
clared that he would regard the election of Lincoln
as great calamity; but he has uttered no word
against Mr.. Bell and he has aduised no union Of the
Democratic forces to defeat Lincoln. And if the
above statement of Mr. Mcpherson to Mr.. Lewis be
true he would throw the election to Lincoln rather
than see Mr.. Breckenridge elected by the House of
Representatives.
