OF The Montgomery Mail, the most able
and influential Opposition Journal in Alabama,
gives the cold shoulder to the Union nomin-
atoms. Speaking of that very explicit plat
form Of the Old Gentleme1s party, it says:
As we construe it, it means athe Constitu-
tion,. Ito be construed North or South to suit
the voter , 'the Union, the enforcement of
the laws" It utterly falls, as was suspected
it would, to take hold Of the issue on which
the fate Of the Union IS suspended.

REPLY OF SENATOR DAYS TO Nh. Dove
LAs-The response of Col. Davis to Senator
Douglas completely demolishes all the so
phistical positions taken by the Illoinois Sena-
tor. We have not space for his speech to-
day, but shall publish it entire when we re-
eeive a full report. As a sample of the way
Mr.. Douglas meets issues presented to him.
we may meation thai when Col. Davis asked
him whetha, i'll President, he would sign
bill for the protection Of southern men in their
slave property ID tae Territories, he declined
to respond. He said it would lie time enough
to answer the question when he got to be
President. So if Mr. Seward we're asked
whether, if elected President, he would use
his office to abolish slavery in the States,
he might, withthe same justice and reason, re-
ply, swat mil get to be President and /
will tell you.t We had always supposed
that the peodeweye sovereign and had a right
to employ such gents to carry out their prin-
cipIes as they l6ew beforehand would do it.
What, we hsk, becomes of Mr.. Douglass doc
trine of "popdhr sovereignty" if the people
are to be denied the right to question their
candidates fof Office ?-Ne,o York Day Book
