How Very "Nationa1."

The Democratic National Executive
Committee has "dissolved its union

mittees-both very national, have been
formed out of the rubbish of the old.
One of these "National' Committees Tie
to Douglas and the other to Breckin-
ridge. McClosky, the Secretary of the
old Committee, goes with the Breckin-
ridge ''nationals," and is their Secretary

ter.

ter.
WOOSTER, O., June 26, 1860.
The nominations of Breckenridge and
Lane was received here by their friends
with unboundel enthusiasm. One hun
dred and five guns were fired this even
ing in honor Of the nominations. They
are having a grand ratification meeting
to might. Speeches are being made
from the balcony of the Lentz House,
by our most prominent Democrats
They stigmatized the "Little Rebel as
traitor and disorganizer, and urged all
national and Union-loving men to stand
by Breckenridge, Lane and the Union.
A large torch-light procession, headed
by bands, paraded the streets, making
night hideous with their yells.
The Rump or Douglas faction are
making great preparations for grand
rally tomorrow evening, as counterac-
ton to to-night's meeting. The hostil-
ity already existing between the two fac
tions is bitter and determined, so look
out for rich reports from this quarter.
The Republicans are greatly elated at
their prospects, and by no means dis
tressed on account of the troubles of the
harmonious Democracy. Put down for
''Honest Old Abe" rousing majority
in "Old Wayne"
Yours, R. W. s.

DEMOCRATIC COMPLIMENTS TO
DEMOCRATS.

DEMOCRATS.
How wonderfully circumstances alter
cases. was never more clearly demon
strated than in the nominations made by
the t,oo Democratic Conventions at Bal
timore.
It is known to everybody that Joe
Lane was one Of the most prominent
candidates before that body for Presi-
dent; and if he had been nominated none
would have shouted lustier in his train
than the Cincinnati Enquirer. Lane is
the chosen Senator of the Democracy
from the Democratic State of Oregon
And while probable candidate of the
Enquirer's party, was gentleman, a
scholar, patriot and statesman. But
the Convention split, and Lane and the
ENQUIRER fell into different fragments
Lane, instead of receiving the nomination
of the whole party for President as he
expected, received the nomination of one
half of 1.-THE Breckinridge faction-for
Vice President, and thereupon the En-
quiirer draws this "enchanting picture" of
the "peerless Democrat" Speaking of
the nomination, the Enquirer says:
"THE NOMINATION OF LANE FOR THE
VICE PRESIDENCY IS AN OUTRAGE UPON
THE INTELLECT OF THE COUNTRY. He
Is ABSOLUTELY UNFIT AND THOROUGHLY
INCOMPETENT FOR THE POST"
We guess the Enquirer is right. But
what different tune it would have sung,
if Lane had been nominated for Presi-
dent by the other faction? Oh! consis-
tpncy

MORE KIDNAPPING.

Another disgracefnl and diabolical
case of kidnapping occurred at Washing
ton, Fayette County, in this State on the
q ult. Several Kentuckians procured
the services of fellow named Collins,
to go with team to the house of a
colored family, about a mile from town.
Stopping at the door, Collins asked for
a drink of water, when John Mar
shall, who is represented by the
Herald, from which we abridge the ac-
count, says is very Industrious, quiet
colored man, who has been working for
Judge Mclean some four years, and
boards in this family, gave him drink
Collins then asked him to give the gen
tlemen in the wagon a drink also. As
soon as he reached them the water, they
all jumped upon him, fand after des-
perate scuffle, bo.nd him in the wagon
and drove for Kentucky at a furious
rate.
Soen as the outrage became known:
officers started in pursuit of the kid
nappers. At Hillsborough they caught
Collins, the driver, but the Kentucky
gang had procured fresh horses there
and were beyond the reach of the officers:
having four hours the start. Collins is
held in 81 900 bail as an accomplice.
AS long as the men markets are open
and man or woman can be sold in the
shambles for the enormous sums they
now bring, these daily scenes may be
expected to continue. There is not
another country. in the world, civilized
or savage, where such deeds of brutal
atrocity would be tolerated. How long
is Ohio to be the favorite hunting ground
of these human blood hounds?

IMPORTANT NEWS.

We mean, important to our Douglas
Democrats We learn, from the last
number of the Democratic paper pub
lished at Marietta, that-"1he noneina-
ton Of Douglas uoas one Of the most har-
m,onions IN oar history
This news was so TRANCE that we
thought on reading it, that it might
possibly be misprint. But on reading
the whole article we find that the editor
had, by some means, obtained the infor-
nation, and was benevolently enlighten-
ing his readers in the ''truth of history" p"
We learn further from the same au-
thority, that Douglas receiced the regular
aaoneination Of has party, and that the pre-
tense that Mr. Douglas a0as not nominated
IN accordance NTH the time honored usdges
Of the party is too idle to be dentc7-
After this vindication of the ''truth of
history" we were prepared for the fol-
lowing from the same high authority:
"Who does not knoa0 that the aoorncst
feelings Of Friendship haze cristed, and
still eeist, Getaoeea the friends Of q Slovt
Code for the Territories IN the South and
the advocates Of the WiEnaot Prouiso IN the
North2"
Such is the s'truth of history as vim
dicated by this Democratic organ. Fal
|
be it from us to dispute so high an au
thority. There is more than column
of the same kind of information, but
what we give is sufficient. But did il
not occur to this vindicator Of history
that he has nsciously made the Re
publicans the only "nationar' party il
the Union? By showing that "the warm
est feelings of friendship have existed
and still exist, between the friends of ;
Slave Code for the Territories, in th'
South, and the advocates of the Wilmo
Proviso in the North" does he not reall,
do a larger job than he contracted for
AS we said, we do not intend to dis
pute this Democratic organ. But Their
is some difficulties in the way which W
hope will yet be explained: ''Dougla
will be elected by an overwhelming ma
jority." This is settled, of course, bu
the difficulty in our mind is, as to tn
source Of his votes. etThe South" W
are Informed, are in bonds of tn
'swarmest friendship" with the Republi
cans, and Douglas would hardly accer
their votes if proffered. But we ar
told that he is so hated there, and tn
: Black Republicans so intensely love
that he will get no effective support i
that region. And zoe assume that Lin
coin will sweep the Free States. I
this state of the case, while we freel
admit, on this Democratic authority
that Douglas will be elected, we acoul
like to know by whose votes.

THE LATEST POLITICAL NEWS.

THE LATEST POLITICAL NEWS.
We learn from the last PIT. Pleasant
paper, whose editor has just returned
from the East, that "Psansyloania IS sure
to gire Bell and EvereH at least ten hous-
and majority" We learn from the Post,
and other "reziaJze'' organs Of the same
State, that Douglas and johnson will
sweep the common wealth by .fortythous-
and majority, at least! We learn, also,
from other equally reliable organs, that
the same State is in 'blaze of enthu-
siasm" for Breckenridge and Lane, and
that they will carry the State against all
opposition. We have not heard that
Lincoln and Hamlin have peremptorily
declined to run, in consequence of this
news.
We learn, also, from the Statesman,
Plaindeazer, and other Democratic organs,
that OHIO will give Douglas an over
whelming majority. We are in receipt
of the further information, from the Gin
cinnati Times, the only Bell paper in the
State, that the enthusiasm of the peo-
pie" for that popular ticket is such as
to- insure It's triumph in November.
While William D. Morgan, formerly
Democratic Auditor of State, and now
the editor of the Newark Advocate, a
Democratic organ, informs us that Bell
will get no votes in Ohio, and that Doug
las cannot come within cone hundred
thousand Of carrying it. Morgan is a
Breckinridge man. He does not say that
Breckinridge will carry the State, but
having put Bell and Douglas out of the
way, the inference is that Breckenridge
is to be the successful man. For surely
no Democrat expects Lincoln to receive
any considerable number of votes any
where.
We have the same late and reliable
news from all the States, but have not
time or room to copy.

The New York Democracy.

The New York Democracy.
The "irrepressible conflict between
the t,oo great national Democratic par
ties" in New York, seems to threaten a
"Kilkenny Cat affair. The "Execu-
tive Committee is divided-the '"Tam-
many Hall" faction is divided-the cold
Hunkers' are divided-the "Barnburn-
ers" are diyided-the "Softshells' are di-
vided-the 'Hardshells' are divided
and, in short, all the named and unnamed
factions of the "New York Democracy
are in the fercest state of effervescence.
Whether Breckenridge or Douglas will
rally the most of the faithful is yet un
certain. The probabilities are that
Breckenridge will carry the greatest
crowd. In the meantime, the immortal
Hcrazd-Bennett's New York Hcrald-
seeing the old shipwrecked and sinking,
has forsaken the frantic crew and gone
over "bag and baggage to Bell and Ev-
erett.
The Empire State is good for any ma
jority you please to name for Lincoln
and Hamlin. The Republican triumph
cannot fail to be complete in that great
State.

President Fillmore on Dis,1nicss,

We commend the following to those who
charge us with disunion. Mr. Fillmore speakin.
! IN Rochester, New York, upon the dangers OF
the struggle for mere sectional domination in
the canvass of the Black Republicans for Ere
mont and Dayton, puts the question to his
Northern auditors then and there, whether they
would submit to similar ini,ttice on the part
OF the south? The vast throng listening. res
pended "No!' with universal shout aud he,
sllll more emphatic, replies himself to the
question. passing his own judgement upon the
point mo! truly you would not but the univcr-
sal cry ofuo would rend the skies" We Give
the extract in question and leaveits application
to those OF his advocates in 1876, who now raise
the shont OF disunion against the Brecknridro
men for position then deliberately taken bv
Mr.. Fillmore and sustained by Rochester
auditory.
"The North is beyond all question the most
populous, the most wealthy, and has the most
voters. and THEREFORE has the power to inlet
this injustice upon the South. But we can best
Judge OF Its consequences by reversing the case
suppose me south was the most populous, the
most wealthy, and possessed the greatest num-
Der of electoral votes and that it should declare
mat for some fancicd or real injustice done at
the North, it would elect none but II President
and Vlce'Prcsident Of Shareholders from tho

fellow citizens, you would submit to this inius
