of Washington Hunt. What was meant as Joke
was taken in earnest by relative and some near
friends of that gentleman, and delegates to the
Convention were finally chosen who were known
to be in his favor. Any one familiar with the
proceedings Of primary meeting Knows how
such a thing may sometimes be done By two or
three earnest men. Mr.. Hunt was waited upon to
know if be would accept such nomination from
the Wings. He replied that he was known to b
a Democrat, but he nevertheless would take the
matter into consideration. The result Of his rs.
Elections was determination TO accept the nomi-

And Toombs, like Stephens and Clingman, was
Harry Clay Wing Perhaps the most distinguished
Democrat that supports Douglas is Mr. Soule.
But he was never regarded as q sound adviser,
nor 90 orthodox disciple Of the faith but rather as
brilliant declaimer eccentric in bis partisan pro-
clivites, wayward in his political propensites aud
quite as apt, in trying exigences to be found sym
psttisDg with the foes as with the friends OF the
party. In fne no intelligent and candid observer
of men and events at the South, doubts that 'he
great body of the Democratic party, In the Demo-
cratic States of the Union, is intensely hostile to
Mr. Douglas, and, really regards him, and Practi-
cally treats him. as no longer within the organza-
ton.
In showing from our recent survey of Southern
opinion that the influential leaders and journals of
The Democratic party scott at and deride, stigma
tie aud demo unce Douglas, we by no means would
have it inferred that these facts lessen him in our
esteem, for they rather elevate him; but our slm'
pie object is to show that the ruling elements in
those States which give power and prestige to

Lire
What effect the knowledge and clear apprecia
ton of this undesirable condition Of things is des
tined to have upon Northern Democrats who
intend TO remain in the party after the present
itful fight is over, remains to be seen. Douglas,
by his esgerness to form coalitions with the hered-
itary enemies of the Democracy, has, in the opn-
ion of its leaders in the Democratic States, only
aggravated his crime in repudiating what they de-
clare to be its fundamental principles They insist
that he has deliberately walked out OF the party.
After the pending contest is over, they VIII take
good care to keep him out. And nobody knows
this fact better than he Hence his incursion,
armed with banner, brand, and bow" into the
enemies domnions. He goes into the South to
reciprocate the favors which Breckenridge Is
bestoying upon him in the North Unless we
stand on the threshold of a political millennium,
and the old-fashoned Democratic party is about
to disappear forever, then it behoOves those pol
iticians at the North who cannot join the Repub-
lcans to take heed whittier their steps are tending.
We give this caution not as partisans, but as
amateur spectators and faithful chronicers of this
War of the Roses.

in accordance with the above, we understand
that tedious negotiations between the high con-

lcly declined to run on a Fusion, or any other
1han straight and square Douglas ticket, and as
Nr. Edward Huntington has likewise declined, in-
tending to support Lincoln and Hamlin rather
than attempt to throw the election into the House,
we presume the four places will easily be made;
and if the Breckenridge men consider that all they
are worth, the bargain may be deemed as good as
concluded, SO far as the leaders are concerned.

buggy for my own use, seven years
ago, aud the tires are now as tight as
when put on. My method offilling
the felloes with oil is as follows: |
use long cast iron oil heater, made
for the purpose; the oil is brought
to boiling heat, The wheel is placed
on stick, SO as 10 hang in the oil,
each felloc one hour, for common
sized felloe.
The timber should be dry, as
green timber will not take oil. Care
should be taken that the oil be not
made hotter than boiling heat in
order that the timber be not burnt.

of water, and the timber is much
more durable. ] was amused some

Treatment Of Young Mares.

AaSutihtht VI A0uhS MdTtS.
Willoughby Wood much es-
feemed writer on horses, thus gives
his opinion in the London Field on
The question as TO whether young
mares are injured for fast work by
having colts at an early ages:
Il have no doubt that The powers Of
a mare are seriously inn aired for fast
work after she has had foal. It
may not stop her growth, because a
FLY, which has been well kept up to
three years ok, does not usually grow
much aftsr that period, 1t may not
greatly deiract from their appear
ance; although il must terd in a GER
tain degree, to increase that very USE
ful defect Of Mares the disproportion-
ute weight cftheir legs. But the very
fact is it elf a strong presumption
against the expediency Of the prac-
tico. ! imagine that those breeders
who resort TO il. do go either from
mistaken views of economy, or only
apply it to such mares as they propose
to retain for moderate work about
home. Withou. entering at length
into the physiology Of the subject, il
appears 10 me that one consideration
suflices to condemn the practice
The whole art OF training horse FOR q
race or pr pairing him for the hunting
field. or other fast work, consists in
bracing his muscular system, and
discartling from the frame all super
fluous Meter. In the breeding al.
.imal TIE very reverse Of this is re.
CURED, our preparation must then be
made for that total relaxation of The
system which is requisite for the birth
of young animals. When it is con
sidered moreover, that this state O.
relaxation is continued 70, six month.
longer, or until the foal is weaned, il
must be evident that the system
can scarcely be expected even fully
to recover lis tone after prostratior
so severe and relaxation so protracted
The case of heiftrs and ewes feeding
well under similar circumstances, II
which my correspondent alludes in an
other part Of his letter,is not a parable
one. In those ATTITUDES we do no
require our horses to lay on flesh bu
to work. That exceptions may occu
TO the rule that breeding units
mare for fast work, do not Doubt
but it is never safe to take exception
for a guide.
As far as my experience goes, 1T
result is quite in accordance witt
theory. once had a mare which hat
bred a foaI at four .year-old. Ii
rpite of her being we'll bred, powerful
with a handsome figure and fine action
she was worthless as bunter. VIVA
made this the more remarkable wa
that she belonged to afamily celebra
ted for their excellence in this respec:
She had no unsoundness. She was
fine goer for short distance, but wa
useless in run, although no faul
could be found in her wind. Sh'
appeared utterly to flag after al
amount Of work'which to IN ordinar,
hunter would only have been exercise
She was hearty feeder, and was capa
lie Of standing good deal Of slos
work, rs, for instance, in harness.
l consider, in short, that to breet
from growing FLY is to run thu
hazard of uniting her for fast work
