Mr.. DOUGLAS This was enough. RED
DINGroN, with visions of Republican Ger
mans coming over to the Democracy, en-
nasse, and of the terror that such deser.
ton would create among Republicans,
silly whispered the matter to other good
democrats, and a council was finally held
and a resolve adopted. to make the way
easy for the apostacy Of the Lieutenant
Governor and his fellow countrymen.-
One of them was sent TO Mr.. RUscu tc
request propositions, assuring him thai
the considerations should be granted
whatever they might be. The Lieut.
Governor, with twinkle in his eye re-
piled I" 1t is true | did make such a
remark to Mr.. REDpINGToN. and | shall
support Mr.. DOUGLAS, providing he IS
nominated by tie Republican party, and
accepts and approves of tie Chicago Re
