Elocuent Extract.

The following patriotic extract we take from
Judge Douglas speech on the occasion of hi,
reception at Concord:
Then again when you come to talk to us
about a dissolution of the Union, we tell you
"No! Never" We make southwark as well as
northward. We furnish the water that floats
down the Mississippi as well as the water
that floats through the lakes of the st. Law
renee. We intend to follow that water wher-
ever it flows until it mingles into the broad
ocean. [Applause.1 We have social and
commercial relations with the South and the
East alike. We have the tie of country and of
blood that binds them together. When you
tell us that this Union is to be dissolved we
say "Never!" for the reasons that we never in
tend to travel into a foreign country, and OBJ
tain a passport and nave 1T vised by a consul
in order to visit the tombs of our fathers or
the scenes of our childhood. Hence there is
not a man on the frontier that don't love this
glorious Union; and because We do love the
Union our motto is never to do an act that
would ALLEVIATE one portion of the people from
another. You can only preserve the Union
by maintaininglpeace and harmony and con-
cord among the people of the different sec
tons. Remember that one tie after another
has already been severed. This fell spirit of
sectional strife has invaded the holy sanctuary,
and has even separated the Churches in
to Churches North and Churches South
This fell spirit of sectional strife has separated
brethren at the communion table. And when
YOU find a spirit of strife so deadly that it can
sever social tie; and the rcfigious-t tic, and pa-
litical tie, what is your Constitution worth,
when you have made the people enemies who
live under it? You must bind the hearts of
this people together, if you expect to maintain
the Union. You can only bind those hearts
together, and mould them into one, by obser-
wing those great principles and equity upon
which our whole system res s.. GCheers.1

sTHe Democrnffc Nomtnecs

The Democracy at their Primary meetings
on Saturday last. Fut in nomination John d.
Jones, for Probate Judge, Henry 5. See, for
Clerk, Gil. Yeariek, for Auditor, James

Treasurer, Jacob Emerick, for Commissioners,

John j Jacobs, for Prosecuting Attorney
M~essrs4Jones, See, limerick, Strickland and

sitions for which they have been renominated.
We have not space to speak at length of these
nominations this week. While modesty for
bids any particular reference to the. candidate
for Prosecuting Attorney, We can most cordi-
alyssay of all the other candidates, that they
are honest and worthy men in every respect
u~nfiiehing in their adherence to Democratic
principles, and of ~sundoubted competency for
the positions for which they have been pre-
scented.
The contest upon Auditor, Treasurer and
Sheriff, was qnite spirited and as a matter of
course all could not succeed, some must nee
essarlig be disappointed, but we believe that
all will unite cordially in sustaining the ticket
nominated, and viii elect it bya triumphant

What Does it Mean.

In every county in Ohio where the Qemoc-
racy have held Primary Elections, The vote
has been unusually large, indicating that the
Democracy were never before so fully aroused,
SO active and ~vigilant; or, that the. aecessions
to. our ranks from the opposition are immense.
We think beth these causes are operating in
favor of the Democracy in Ohio at this time.
In. every county, hundreds of men who here
tofore acted with opposition, now repudiate
the Congressional Intervention Platform and
principles of the Republican party, and will
suppert the Non-Intervention and Popular
Sovereignty principles of the Demoefacy.-
The signs of the times are most glorious, and
Indicate the redemption of the great State OF
Ohio from the slough of Black Republcanism.

The. poIl.books show that the vote amounted

saws, thatthe Democracy are fully aroused and
that many who hare heretofore acted with

StratUs.

The popular demonstrations for DOUGLAS &
JOHNSON are the largest, most frequent and
most imposing that ever have occurred in this
country. They show that the people are deter
mined to take the control of the government
in their own hands and 70 longer suffer a few flee
holders or Office seekers to manage affairs in
their own way. IF this had been done long
since, the country would not now be at the
very verge of anarchy and dissolution, brought
there by the scheming, conspiracies and plot.
ting of designing and purely selfish men. Let
the good work go on. Let this popular up
heaving be felt all over the land as it is now
being felt in Ohio, Illinois and New York
The Democratic papers of this state are almost
full of notices Of prominent men who are just
falling into the Democratic line. They have
been holding Democratic meetings in the
North Western part of this State, unparalleled
ed in numbers and enthusiasm. We clip the
following from two of our exchanges:

Resolutions Of the Bell and Everett

We to-day give the resolutions adopted with
great enthusiasm at the recent Bell and Eve
rett Convention, held at Chillicothe:
Resolued, That the Union party of Ohio,
in mass convention assembled, most cor
daily approve and ratify the domination of the
Hon. John Bell; [cheers] of Tennessee, for
President, and the Hon. Edward Everett, of
Massachusetts,, for Vice President of the Uni

Resolved, That the Platform of "the Union,
the Constitution and the enforcement of the
laws" as illustrated in the lives of these dis
tinguished citizens, is q sufficient exposition OF
the policywhich the Constitutional Union par
sy proposes to the people of the United States.
Resoived, That We condemn, in the most
unqualified terms, the conduct of the Reprbli-
can party of Ohio, in their effort to nullify the
laws through the agency of the Supreme
Court. GCheers.] That their reputation oil

GIVES UP THE STATE.-In a leading arti-
Gle, the Eveniny Post Republican all through)
thus despairingly presents the condition of the
Republican enthusiasm We may as well
let it be known, far and wide, that New York
is lost to the Republican cause And in the
sane article it says Neither Seward or his
friends, nor all their speeches and er treaties,
will avail to make the people wake up from
the apathy which now pervades the State.'-
This from the Post, which is net a giving up
sheet, speaks significantly of the low fortunes
of the Lincoln cause in the Empire State.

tleman Of Cincinnati, who was lately indWis-
consin. informs us that on a railroad leading
from Milwaukee to the center of the State, he
was informed by q seller of campaign medals,
containing likenesses of the Presidential can
didates, that on that day he had sold one hun
dred and twenty of Douglas to thirty for Lin
coin. Upon being asked if a similar disparity
in favor of Lincoln did not frequently exist,
he said that there was not q day passed that
he did not sell three or four Douglas medals
to one for Lincoln. The, seller was . Repub-
hcan himself. Our friend consoled him upon
the theory that Lincoln was such an ugly look
ing man that nobody wanted to buy his hkness.

R- In New York the Lincoln forces are
headed by Daniel Ullman, S~crogggs, and other
leaders of the Know Nothing Party, who in
fact are the managers of the affair in that
State, Greeley being only subordinate to them.
The Union men of the State, such as Gov.
Hunt, William Duer and others, have determ-
ined to vote the Douglas electoral ticket, which
the Lineolnites profess to be very much hor-
ri6ed at and charge that the Know Nothings
are fusing with the Douglas men. 1t is the
Union men who have united with the Democ-
racy, the Know Nothing leaders having gone
over to Lincoln, who IS now dead in New
York and no mistake.-Staaesauan.

nS-The Winchester (Ind) Democrat re,
lates the following incident of the Democratic
meeting at Union City on the 18th inst:
AS the crowd returned to Winchester in the
evening train, they were told by a Kentucky
Democrat, who was on the train, going home
from the East, that that was the third Douglas
meeting he had passed that day. That at
Marion. Ohio. the whole town was full of PEG
pie; that at Sidney, a large meeting was going
on as the train passed; "and' says he "when I
got to the State line l found another large
meeting of Douglas Democrats. We are told
in the South that all the people at the North
are for Lincoln; but l End it is not So" He
said Kentucky had declared against sectional
ism, and for the Union, and he was glad to
find that there was a good reason to be.ieve
that Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois would stand
with her. We say they will; and they will
shake hands with Kentucky across the beauti.
full Ohio, as brothers meet brothers, in spite
of all the attempts of Republeanism and Yam
ceyites to make it otherwise.

'Philadelphia named Albert G. Stevens, died
Thursday, from injuries received on Saturday
at the hands of some unknown assassin. He
was passing to the bank late on the above night,
when some one approaching from behind,

Before he died he explained that his murderer
was in company with three other men, and at.
tributed his assault to a superstition that as
watchman of the bank he carried the keys.
