Brodsrick and Douglas.

The Chicago Press d Tribune gives the
following account Of an interview between
Messrs. Brodcrick and Douglas, while the
English bill was pending before Congress -
"On the Sabbath before final vote on that
bill, meeting of Anti Lecompton Democrats
Of both Houses was held at the rooms of SEN
ator Broderick, to consult upon what course
it was advisable in the emergency. A num-
Der of the weaker brethren, including Sena-
tor Douglas, advised conciliating the South
by accepting the English bill. Only four or
five held out against it. Among these were
Broderick of California and Harris of Illinois.
Mr.. Douglas manifested willingness to
yield, and the gallant Harris shed tears of
anguish and gave utterance to his despair. =
Mr.. Broderick rose solemnly to his feet, and
pointing his finger directly toward Mr.. Doug
las and fastening his keen flashing eye upon
him said: You can vote for the English SUBJ
stitute if you will but should you do so, as
sure as there is God of truth and justice in
Heaven, I viii denounce you upon the floor
of the Senate for having traitorously deserted
principle and sol yourself to the Admins
tration.' Til are informed, was the
language to Hickman made allu-
sion, and tho l1g of which, by Broderick
saved Douglas from his own craven desire to
surrender.

FAIRBANKS ScALEs.--It is a significant fact,
which the public will appreciate, thAt when
ever new scales are put upon the market. as
large numbers have been from time to time,
during the last thirty years, it seems to be the
first and chief aim Of the makers to show that
they are the same as Fairbanks, or like them,
or are improvements upon them, or have tn
ken premiums over them, thus recognizing
the latter as the standard for excellence, and
showing the strong hold they have upon the
public confidence. 1t is . well-known fact
that while most of these scales have, after
more or less trial, past mainly out of use,
Fairbanks have gone steadily forward, in
creasing in public favor year after year, and
are now much more generally used than all
others, not only in this country, but where
ever American commerce has beenearried.-
This could not be so if they were not oil that
is claimed for them in respect to their dura-
bility, as well as convenience and accuracy.

Douglas VI Douglas and the Missouri
Compromise.

From Douglass Speech at Springfield. H., in 1s4s.
The Missouri Compromises had its origin IN
the hearts Of all patriotic men acho desired to
preserce and perpetuate the blessings Of our
glorious Union--an origin akin to that Of the
Constitution Of the United States, conceived
in the same spirit Of fraternal affection, and
calculated to remorc torecer the only danger
soaich seemed to threaten at some distant day,
to secer the social bond Of Union. All the ev-
licences of public opinion at that day seemed
to indicate that THIS COMPROMISE HAD
BECOME CANONIZED IN THE HEARTS
OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AS A SA-
CRED THING, WHICH NO RUTHLESS
HAND WOULD EVER BE RECKLESS
ENOUGH TO DISTURB.
From Douglass Speech at Providence. Aug. 8, 1860.
MY friend over there--friend or enemy as
the case may be-wants to know something
about the Missouri Compromise. [Cheers]
I have not the slightest objection to telling
him all he desires to know upon that ques-
ton. / BROUGHT IN THE BILL TO RE-
PEAL THE MISSOURI RESTRICTION.

Whom parson Brownlow win Join th

4 An Arkansas correspondent, who probably
wanted to "wake up" Rev. Mr.. Brownlow,l 10
the Knoxville (Tenn.) Wing, wrote to the lat
ter stating that he had learned with pleasure
upon what g he considered reliable outhor
ity." that Mr.. Brownlow was about to joir
the Democrats, and asked for the probable
date of that interesting occurrence. Mr.
Brownlow gave the date, or at least the dats
for the date as follows:
n. ""KNoxvILLE, Aug. 6, 1860.
aMr. Jordan Clark: have your letter o.
the SOth ult and hasten to let you know the
precise time when expect to come out and
formally announce that I have joined the
Democratic party. When the sun shines al
midnight, and the moon at midday-when
man forgets to be selfish, or Democrats lose
their inclination to steal, when nature stops
her onward march to rest, or the water cor-
SEES in America flow up stream when flowers
lose their odor and trees shed no leaves--when
birds talk and beasts of burden laugh-when
damned spirits swap hell for heaven, with
the angels Of light, and pay them the boot in
mean whisky--when impossiblities are in
fashion, and no proposition is too absurd to
be believed, you may credit the report that

there are sects in Embellishments in gardens

you may congratulate-you may reason

thrones of the Old World-the court of the
Universe governments of the world, may
all fall and crumble into ruin-the New World

The Prince of Wales.

The Prince is still visiting in Canada. On
Monday, the 9th inst, he visited Montreal,
where he was enthusiastically received. A
ball was given in the evening which far sur

1t is circular, and lighted with 1000 gas jets
arranged in concentric circles around. The

around, under which are reffeshncnt and
dressing rooms. The decorations were sim
pie but effective. The arrangements were
excellent, music good, and supper tables we'll
supplied with fountains Of champagne and

Political.

AT q meeting d some sixty Americans in
Buffalo, New York, few evenings since
called to give an expression of their views in
regard to the propriety ofpassing themselves
over to Douglas, rs arranged by Hume, Brooks
& Co., .tfty-one concluded to vote for Lincoln
The st. Louis Democrat enters into an
elaborate calculation to show that the Elcc.
toral vote of Missouri may be secured for
Lincoln. It deems Breckenridge stronger
than either Douglas or Bell, and believes that
the Republicans can poll more votes than
either lstifeE a1o
We need hardly remind our readers that
Senator Fitch is physician, when we make
the following extract from one of his late
speeches He said +" If falsehoods was can.
tharidcs, every Douglas tongue would be
blistercd so that it could never find q dis
tinct uttcrance."
The San Francisco Times predicts that
Douglas will not get as many votes in Cali
fornia as Breckinridge by Ave thousand, and
will be behind both him and Lincoln; the
latter of whom will carry the State, unless all
signs fail.
The Cumberland (Md) Telegraph, speak
ing Of the trading between the Bell party and
the Democracy, says
1--WE prefer Mr.. Lincoln before either of
the Democratic nominees, and if driven from
our support of Mr.. Bell by the trickery of our
leading men--if our party is to be traded off
to either wing Of the Democracy-then zee
are for Lincoln, sritA tens Of thoasands of
others in good old Maryland"
TExAs-An election has Just been held in
this State for Comptroller, Treasurer and At
torney General, and the issue made up was
between Houston and Breckinridge. The
latter party have carried the day by large
majority large enough to make sure that
Texas will vote for Breckenridge in Novem-
ber-thus leaving no hope for Houston in
the only State where he had any hope.
How PENNSYLVANIA WILL Go.--The Bos-

doubt that Pennsylvania will 60 for Lincoln
