 DOUGLAS. AND THE PRESTDENfry

The present attitude of Stephen A. Dough-;
 IS most contemptible. It is derogatory to ever,
 feetlng of self-respect, of pride, and personal as piratlon. For man occupying the position
 which he now does before the nation. to be c;r
 cuating aboutthe country, in the character of o political stump orator, begging for votes. is q t- tie too humiating to be looked upon even with contempt. And what is wo g., more humiliat- lng to see him electioneering for himself, beg glnS votes for himself; to see him personally at- tempting to bolster up his own weak political for tunes, IS enough to mortify the strongest feel ings of pride of his most devoted friends and ad- mirers. One day he takes the stump in one place. the next in another, and the third finds him on the stump at some clam bake trying to enlighten a-factlon of the" National Democra- cy" upon the subject of Squatter Sovereignty" Has he no friends? If he has, in Heaven, s name, why don't they call him from the political
 field, and not suffer himself to make a greater ass of himself than Nature made of him He is by his present course belttling his cause and his own name. and he is reducing himself to the I character of 8 political partisan of the meanest kind. To see him on the stump in this charac- ter, begging for votes, begging for the votes of the old Wings and begging for them for himself. must create in the public mind an impression that there IS no such thing as political virtue in the land. Is not this the first time in tha b;st ry of this nation that candidate for the Pyasi. dency has stopped 30 low as to take the stumn in his own behalf and with sslayish, sycophapcvy mas begged for votes, begged for votes from those Wno put ti Jew short years ago. he would have spufrnaed rom him hi much sooner than he would his Satanic brother Gas .l! "
 But the exigencies of the times are changed. Douglass position is changed. He wants votes 70 elect him, and Without.a blush of shame mapt- ing his cheek, he begs old Wings to come to his tssls stance and contribute to his election. I can lardly conceive of lower depth of political degradation than this. It may be satisfactoryto Douglas, it may be source of pride to him, to ,e around the country, begging votes for himself ! such Q contest as this but twill not be so to ny body else! He snay be elected through the id of Wing votes, but we think not Mis yca,'. q

The Pulpit vs. The prees,.


 Itch6eld has subsided, at least. for tho tim, mto pleasant state of repose, after it's Int ministerial inserludes Of iveliness. It has bee, sety wisely and witaly remarked by distin es'shed resident parson, that for the past fou years the "elcrgy" have caused more excite ment aad tamult among the people, than all tho rest of tho professions together-not executing we suppose, the Press. ..ll... 70 1aierhaps it is time for the Press to mt in fife oar. l"a ad " ]:
 me fress has put it in vigorously all over the State, and even the New York papers, the >ast week, have been the medium of giving to tile world at largo, history of the clerical affairs in Lditchfeld, ld and have thereby given the facts q publicity rather larger and moro important, we opine, than is wholly necessary, or, as wo think agreeable to all around. A
 The " F 7smes commenting humorouslv m. on the aiiaif of the bsligerent doctors, sums m Aiy saying, {" If Connecticus ministers from ~. pounding the scriptures, have taken to pounding each other, the sooner they arc all imnounaed the betterr-in the whichit falls into an error ~ supposition, as the. only parson pounded here ssas so subjected by sicm'sage. 7'sff " .. s S But the affair having now blown over in N, measure, we may hope for the sake of peace and quietude, it may not be renewed, Ut least, un. less it is so brought up in responsible and dig n'fied court of justice, that it may be settled finally, and finally put out of power to disturb. distraet or ernbtter the feelings of those whose beauty and righteousness it is, to proclaim and exemplity pence and good will to men.
 But the point which VIC wish to make and dis. unctly avow, is, that while the province of the press has little call to clash with the legitimate P'os'hce Of the pulpit, or the pulpit with the psess, tho nets of the one are certainly lep;t;.
