his mother in Massachusetts, New

all that the accursed institution of slave

elevation of Stephen Il. Douglas, the

We denounce all the dogmas of

and his faction in adopting them, as
well as the progressive steps of that
adoption down to their embodyment
in the Resolutions we have quoted, we

In pursuance Of the call OF tho

bled in County Convention, at Csssap-
oils, ON Thursday, Aug. 10th, for the
purpose of nominating candidates for
the various Offices to be voted for by
the people of Cass County at the next
election. The Convention was called
to order by g. w. Clisbee, ESQ.,, chair
man Of the County Committee, when,
upon motion, J. G. Beeson Esq, was
elected chairman and w. II. Campbell

1t turns out that Frank Blair has
been eleotedto Congress for both terms.
The ST. Louis Democrat says:
We were premature, it appears, in
eonceding the election of Barrett for
the short term. By official accounts
there are over taco hundred Republican
tickets which were polled for f. Blair
for Congress, which he has not re-
ceived credit for SO far, and which
gave him a majority over Barrett, of
fifty or sixty votes. That he is emit
tied to the votes both on the long and
the short term, no doubt can be enter
tanned. The ticket on which his name
thus appears is headed. "the Repub-
lican ticket, with the exception of the
candidates for Coroner and Marshal"
1t will, therefore, we submit, be the
duty of the proper authorities to give
Mr.. Blair what he is so obviously en-
titled to. Indeed we cannot imagine
that Dir. Barrett, who affects to hold
the verdict of the ballot box sacred,
however informal the voting may have
been accomplished, would have the
hardihood to claim the seat for the
short term, under the circumstances.
The united footings of the short
term are as follows:

For Francis p. Blair 1854
For Blair 207-12, 731

Actual majority for Blair

Actual majority for Blair &C
These 2O7 votes were thrown out
because they failed to state whether
they were intended for the long or the
short term, or for both. As each bal
lot is numbered and every voters name
registered with the number correspond
ing to his ballot, it is proposed to cali
these 207 voters up before the Court
and ascertain how they intended to
vote. r. 1e
Good legal authority says this can
be done, and these votes recorded.
This will give Blair his seat in the 3Oth
Congress, and give additional luster
to the already brilliant victory. Glory
enough for one day!

his faction to the car-wheels OF their
conqueror and task master, the inexor-
able Slave Power. And as if. to leave
no doubt of his own abject and I'M
qualified submission to be thus chained,
Douglas specially proclaims his sub
mission in his letter accepting his fac
tional nomination
The fact that after all this, Douglas
takes the stump and continues to pirate
about "my great doctrine of Popular
Sovereignty" and of "the right of the
people of Territory to regulate their
domestic relations in their own way
and "to decide for themselves whether
they will admit or exclude slavery
only proves him to be political swim
dler by false pretences of remarkably
tough and leathery "cheek."
We now see how and why it is that
Douglas and his faction have adopted
all the heresies of which we have
spoken; and particularly why he and
they are now so strenuously insisting
upon that enormous heresy that the
Federal Supreme Court has, by the
Constitution, the exclusive power to
determine all questions which can be
raised upon any of the provisions OF
that instrument, all questions of slavery
in the Territories included. We thus
see why it is that he and his faction
are so jealous in their efforts to vest
that Court with the powers of absolute
