The BREcKlNRIDGE MOVEMENT. = The
Seceders' ticket, it appears, will not fall
to the ground for lack of newspaper sup
port. There are now two hundred aud
sixty two journals in the Union devoted to
the advocacy of his election. These are
distributed as follows: Maine 9, New
Hampshire 4, Vermont I. Massachusetts, 9,
Connecticut 2, New York IL, New Jersey

IL, Virginia 90, North Carolina l6, South

In this list there are two hundred and
sixty two. Fifty four of this number are
published in non slaveholding States, and
two hundred and eight in the slavehold
ing. The entire number makes an average
of eight papers in each State. None of
the papers in California, Oregon, Rhode
Island, Michigan and Iowa, in the support
of Breckenridge and Lane, are included in
this list, consequently it is incomplete.

The HARMONIOUS IN PRsNsYLvASIA.-The
war of the factions in Pennsylvania is
waxing hot and bitter. The rent runs
through the middle of the party, and bets
are being made as to which party will poll
the most votes.
An attempt was made the other day to
hold a Convention of both wings in Col
umbia county, one of the old strongholds
of the Democracy. But the irrepressible
conflict was too strong for the cob esive at
traction of public plumber, and the Con-
vention was rent ia twain. Some 50 dele
gates pronounced for Brock and % for
Dug. Two conventions were then organ
ICED.
At the Breckenridge meeting @. D. Muir
ray made speech, in the course of which
he is reported to have said:
Again ask, who are responsible for all
thisY and again l answer, the Douglas
men. They are the fellows who "have

The defeat Of the bill, in conse-
quence of the Incorporation into 1t Of
Mr.. Grows amendment. shows that a
majority Of the House was really
! opposed to that amendment. although
it hal been adopted hy a vote of 9o
to 81. Certain members, who did
not dare to vote directly against the
amendment. joined in killing it after
wards. by killing the bill. of which it
had been made a part 10y ,hair own
votes.
Thus Mcssrs. Stewart of Maryland.
Atkins. Avery. Jones and Savage. of
Tennessee, and Jewett. Stevenson,
AMI Talbot. of K-ntuckv. who had
voted. for the amrndment, voted
afterwards against the bill. Oxly

supporters of the amendment. proved
:rue to it III tho cad. and 9th +
Southern member came To its support
in the hnal vote. swing only Mr..
Davis of Maryland. who represents
the iree-labOr interests of the city OF
Baltimore, rather than the Interests
or passions of tn, slaveholding and
landed ariStolacy of the planting
States.
Afterwari. on the same day, when
these votes upon Mr.. Grows amend
nent were given. the representatives
from Minnesota. both OF them members
oi the Democratic party. delivered
speeches. in which they made no
secret of their chsgrin that 8 measure
10 vital to their constituency en-
counterel the nearly unanimous op-
position OF their political friends. Mr.

THE . BUSINESS.

Col. BABErTT appears TO be considerably
exercised in mind, because We did not afhx
a . to all the Republican candidates voted
for in this township. We regret that an
omission Of the conposi,or should have so
wofulIy disturbed the serenity of our neigh
Dor. Because a = was not affixed to the
names Of Lincoln, Curtis, Wright, Sells and
r. L. Douglas, ys great Babbitt at once
concludes that "thsre is something in this
omission Of the star" Smart man, tina,
Rabbit.
But, the Col. seems TO regret that we never
endorsed Mr.. Douglas as good man."
We can tell him that Mr. Douglass needed
no such endorsement a. our hands; besides
that, be vas nominated By the Republicans
on Friday night, and our paper went to press
early Saturday morning-ws had no time to
Sc. forth Mr. Douglass peculiar fitness for
the Office TO which he has since been elected
Egerybodv knew he was much better man
than Batbist for the Office of Supervisor,
without our telling them of it-as is evil
denced by the votes polled in this township
on the 9Th inst. As for Mr.. Douglass
Republicanism--why, that has never been
qucstioned-he is as straight as they make
ZEN. We hope Mr.. Douglass competitor
is now satisfied.
The Council Bluffs nonpareil. [volume] (Council Bluffs [Iowa]) 1857-1867, 1860-11-17
THE DIsUN!oS FURRY.

We hear from various parts of the South
that sundry Postmasters and District Attor-
news are resignipg their Offices, and that
snndry others are proclaiming that they will
not hold office under Lincoln-a tolerably
safe calculation. We have also reports OF
various public meetings, committees and
resolutions threatening Secession and all
sorts of things; and finally a long wiuded
message from the Governor of Georgia
which latter document, if carefully ex-
amined is found not to mean Disuaion
at all.
The long and short Of the whole matter
is this, that we have no law to prevent men
from saying what they please or threatening
whatever suits their dlsordered constitu-
ti0ns. Laws are enacted with reference to
acts. not words. South Carolina may fume
and illuminate, and call conventions and
pass resolutions till the crack of doom. So
long as she does not commit the over act Of
treason there is no bill Of indictment against
her. Mr. Lincoln is constitu;ionalIy elected
President Of the ichole country. and his
past life has shown him to be the pos scr of
sufficient nerve for any emergency. There
is to be no civil blood, he'd growing out Of
his administration. but tho Con titution and
laws VI lle obitta States aFS VI DS QUlSAIS
enforced during the next four years. 1t J..
a very simple thing to collect the revenue 4
the United States, and Other things will take
care of themselves. We should Ike to be-
liese that South Carolina would keep Der
members of Congress at home until the Re-
publleans secure the organization Of the
next House; but do not believe it.
Henceforth there viii be but two rarties
in the North 90 the Disunion question. One
party will be in favor Of assisting South
Carolina to go out Of the Union. and the
other in favor Of coercing her to obedience.
