There seems to have been some trouble in
| regard to the election in this Ward. The
| first meeting, the result of which we have

been irregular and unfair, and consequently
| q second one was held at the same place
The time occupied in holding the first meet
| ing was only twenty-five minutes, and allow.
ing fifteen minutes for the organization, ten
only remained for the purpose of receiving
votes. Some persons who arrived in time "a
vote, for the purpose of preparing their tick
cts, went to place where writing materials
might be had, and upon returning were in
formed that the poles had been closed. Oh
course, they protested against this injustice
and reorganized a meeting, reopened the
| polls and received additional votes, as follows

Van Buren, Sounder In 1885 than Bell

Southern Opposition partisans have never
ceased to denounce Martin Van Buren, for his
views in regard to the abolition of slavery in
the District of Columbia See how much de-
votion the supporters of Bell have to princi
pie. Here is the Van Buren, position in 1886
"The allegations which attribute to me
views and opinions that are so justly obnox-
ious to the slaveholding States are made in

my part, denying all authority on the part o.
the Federal Government, against the propriety
of agitating the question in the District o.

Squatter Sovereignty and Federalism

Many calls have been made upon US lately
for the republication Of Senator Douglass
e Dorr letter" in which the writer informed
the Democracy of the Union that he would
not accept Presidential nominations at their
hands, except upon an out and out squatter
sovereignty platform.
The following is copy of the letter in ques-
ton:
WASHINGTON, June %, 1859.
My DEAR SIR: have received your letter
inquiring whether my friends are at liberty to
present my name in the Charleston Conyen-
ton for the Presidential nomination.
Before the question can be fully determined
it will be necessary to understand distinctly
upon what issue the canvass is to be conduct
ed. IfSas / have full faith they will, the
Democratic party shall determine, in the
Presidential election of 1860, to adhere to the
principles embodied in the compromise meas
ures Of 1850, and ratified by the people in the
Presidential election of 1852, and re-affirmed
in the Kansas n ebraska act of 1854, and in
eorporated into the Cincinnati platform in
1856, as expounded by Mr.. Buchanan in his
letter accepting the nomination, and approved
by the people, in that event my friends will
be at liberty to present my name to the Con-
vention, if they see proper to do so. If on the
contrary, it shall become the policy of the
Democratic party, which cannot anticipate,
to repudiate these, their time-honored princi-
pies, on which we have achieved SO many pa
triotic triumphs, and if, in lieu of them, the
Convention shall interpoIate into the creed Of
the party such new issues as the revival Of
the African slave trade, or Congressional
slave code for the Territories, or the doctrine
that the Constitution of the United States either
establishes or prohibits SLAVERY in the Terrific
ries, beyond the power of the people Legally to
control at as other property, it is due to can
dor to say that, IN such an event, I could not
accept the nomination If tepderea to me-
Trusting that this answer will be deemed
sufficiently explicit, am, very respectfully
your friend, s. A. DOUGLAS. .

Douglas working to Eject Lincoln.

The following most remarkable statement
WINS recently made by the Hon. Arson Bur-
lingame in speech in Maine, as reported by
. correspondent of the Bangor Union, Of the
25th of August We would like to see Mr..
Douglass friends explain or refute this re-
markabe announcement:
The Hon. Arson Burlngame addressed the
citizens of Belfast on last Tuesday evening.
The only point the speaker made which is
worthy Of the attention of Democrats, is that
which disclosed his alleged confidential rela-
tons with Mr.. Douglas. Upon this matter l
give Mr.. Burlingame's language, as follows:
SColfax Frank Blair and myself have had
frequent private interviews with Mr.. Doug
las. in his own house. On those occasions
Mr.. Douglas freely made use of expressions Of
the deepest indignation against Southern die
tation' az also had private interview with
| Mr.. Douglas" continued Mr.. Burlingame.
ION the occasion of his late visit to Boston.
Mr.. Douglas then made use of this language:
Buringame, l am elected Senator for six
wears; have got Joe Lanes head in basket
and shall soon have SlidelPs Bright's, and
Fitch's. Won't it be a splendid sight, Bur.
lingame, to see McDougal returned from Cali.
fornia, Baker from Oregon, and Douolas ana
Old Abe, all at Washington together-FoR TIKI
NEXT PRESIDENT IS TO COME FROM ILLINoIsi'
Mr.. Burlingame then exhorted the Douglas
men to vote for Lincoln, both to revenge thu
wrongs done to their favorite by the Southern
Democracy, and to carry out Mr.. Douglass
wishes" for,' said Mr. B., "what else thai
the election of Lincoln could Mr.. Douglas hav
had in view when, in his recent speech a
Rocky Point, Rhode Island, he declared tina
ne never on earth would agree to uniol
with the Breckenridge men," "This," sal
Mr.. B., "means the election of Lincoln, ant
nothing else" y.

The Canvass.

EDITOR MIssIssIPPIAN: You would be as
tonished to see how the people are coming in
to the support of Breckenridge and Lane in
North Mississippi. was at Fulton court a
few days since, when the Hon. Reuben Davis
and others made political speeches, and the
people were all of one way of thinking. Bell
men are not canyassing counties.
= In returning from Fulton, about twenty
miles east of town, called at house to get
some water; and there found six or seven
gentlemen present. Inquired how their re-
spcctivc neighborhoods were divided on poll
tics. They all spoke up at once, that there
was no division whatever. I felt like / might
be in Bell crowd, but determined to know
the whole truth, | remarked, that there were
so many candidates running that supposed
the people must be divided some? They an.
swered, that they hadn't heard of so many.
Says /, how many? Only two. was al
most afraid to ask; but l did ask. which two?
Imagine my delight when they answered, only
Breckenridge and Lane.
But North Alabama win beat North Missis-
sippi. In Marion county, about twenty miles
south Of this, there was speaking at court last
week, and only one Ben man could he
up; who said il be heard another
Bell speech, he would vote for Breckinridce

SHAREHOLDERS"
SHAREHOLDERS ARE MORE GRIM.
NAL THAN COMMON MURDERS"
Shareholders and slavetraders are, as a
general thing, unfit to occupy any honorable
station in life''
at is our honest conviction that all the
pro-slavery Shareholders, who are alone re-
sponsible for the continuance of the baneful
institution among US, deserve to be AT ONCE
REDUCED TO A PARALLEL WITH THE
BASEST CRIMINALS THAT LIE FET-
TERED WITHIN THE CELLS OF OUR
PUBLIC PRISONS"
"Were it possible that the whole number
Il. e. of the slave-holders,) could be gathered
together and transferred into four equal gangs
of licensed OTROBBERS, RUFFIANS,

feel assured would suffer less from their
atrocities than it does now''
$50 it seems that the total number of actual
slave owners, including their entire crew of
bringing lick-spttles, against whom we have
to contend, is but three hundred and forty
seven thousand five hundred and twenty five.
Against this army for the defense and propa-
cation Of slavery, WE THINK 1T WILL
BE AN EASY MATTER, fudepende,t OF the

within It's appropr.a.s sphere ssti7T withhold
rom the owners of Slaves that adequate pro-
lection for their property of other kind, are
entitled, or which from its nature they may
further require to secure them its possession
and enjoyment.
And then Texas, Florida, Arkansas, Ten
nessee, Alabama, Kentucky, and we believe
every Southern Legislature in session last
winter, passed resolutions, with equal unani-
nifty, without distinction of party enuncia-
ting the doctrine of protection to slavery n
the territories
We take it then that the whole South
stands pledged to maintain the doctrine that
it is the duty of Congress, whenever necessa-
~, to protect slavery in the Territories.
The Democracy, under the lead of Brock
inridge and Lane, being the only party before
the country which has proclaimed that prin-
cipIe in its platform in clear and explicit terms
and being the only party which has nomina'
ted candidates endorsing and standing upon
that doctrine, we cannot see how Southern
men OF either party, unless they are willing tt
prove recreant to their past declarations o
principle, can fail to rally to the standard o
that party determined to maintain those prin
ciples at all hazards.
