Instead If attacking the policy and princi-
pies Of the Back Republican party, and seek
ing to injurc it in public estimation, tho en-
tire batteries Of the Douglas speakers on Sat
urday night were turned upon the Democracy
Not n damaging alusion was made to the
Blacks. On the contrary, they were handled
50 dcyately that the inference is almost ire
>stihlc that the friends of Mr.. Douglas desire
a coalition with them. such as existed il this
State last year 1t would be no matter Of as.
constituent should these high contracting par
ties enter into compact, whereby Abe Lin
coin is TO be supported in those few counties
where his strength exceeds that Of Mr. Doug
las, and rtce rc1s0. Either Of the factions will
make any sacrifice Of principle 10 secure a vic
tory. If such or some similar vancouver is
not in contemplation, Why did the supporters
Of Mr. Douglas, az their ratification meeting,
confinc themselves to abuse Of the Democra-
cy? If they are willing to cooperate with
the Democracy in common assault upon
Black RcpublicaniSn, was it either prudent or
sensible for them to pursue the course they
did? Instead Of Cancellation and persuasive
arguments towards harmony, every word said
on the occasion referred to, wns calculated, il
not intended. to widen the breach between the
two wings Of the Democracy, and to generate
that degree Of warmth and bitterness Of feel.
