The Horse Fair.

Owing to the fact that the manuscript on
which we had taken notes of the Horse Fair
having been mislaid, we cannot give thenames
of the owners of the horses exhibited, and shall
be obliged to omit many particulars which
would otherwise have been given. The list OF
premiums awarded will be published soon,
which shows which horses the different com
mittees adjudged to be entitled to them, but
we should have been glad to have mentioned
some of the other horses which were nearly if
not quite as good.
The track was in good order Notwithstanding
the previous wet weather; there was a goOdly
number of good horses entered for the premi-
ums and n large number of people in attend
Ance. In the latter part of the afternoon a
shower of rain fell which made the track some
what slippery for the last race, which of course
prevented the horses from making as good time
as otherwise would probably have been made.
There was some disorderly conduct on the
THE part of a few of the crowd, during the af-
SERMON, but as the matter was finally quoted
without much fuss. it is not necessary to men
ltion names. We sincerely hope that nothing
of the kind may ever occur again, for only dam
age to person, property and character is to be
got by such transactions.
In regard to the stock, one fact was p%articu-
larly noticeable, namely, that the number of fine
sucking colts broaght out for exhibition was
very much larger, and their average quality
decidedly better than on any former occasion

A Horse for Somebody.

On Friday night a carriage and harness were
stolen from the stable of Mr.. Andrew Strana-
han of Mercer Co, Pa.
a son of Mr.. S, traced the carriage to this
place, and on Saturday, when he reached the
Gaskill House, he saw the buggy standing be-
fore the barn, and a man who seemed to have
it in his possession was arranging the curtains.
Mr.. Stranahan at once accused him Of having
stolen the buggy. An officer was sent for. but
before he arrived, the fellow started on a full
run, pursued by several citizens, but he was
too good wind and bottom and escaped.
The horse which he had driven is still in
possession of Mr.. Shoenberger. Landlord of the
Gaskill House, and is supposed TO have been
stolen. The animal is a bay, with one white
hind foot, four years old, and about Is hands
high.
The fellow also left a carpet sack containing
a small quantity of jewellry. This is in pos
session of Constable Brooks.

St. Charles City Republican intelligencer. [volume] (St. Charles City [Charles City], Iowa) 1857-1861, 1860-08-02

The Republicans held an impromptu
meeting in this town on Saturday eve
ming last, which was one Of the most
enthusiastic meetings of the kind we
ever attended. The meeting was not
thought of till a few hours before the
time for assembling. Presently some
one put out a [. 5. flag, which was
followed by another and another till
Main street throughout presented a
holiday appearance. 1t is wonderful
what inspiration there is in /" the flag
of our country! Surely the Union
can never be dissolved by such pco-
pie. As evening approached, gentle
men and ladics-thc old and young
all were seen vending their way to
the meeting, till Cheney & Brackets
Hall was filled to overlooking. The
was called to order by II. w.
Humphrey President of the st. Charles
Republican Club, when music, speeches
and songs were the order of the eve
ming. Addresses were made by Hon.
Eli A. Hubbard, Of Massachusetts !;
Dca. Jesse Clement, Of Dubuque
Hon. L. G Bowdoin, Of Rockford VIM
b. Fairfield, Esq, and Irving w. Card,
Esq, Of St Charles City. Several
Lincoln songs were sung by l.. l..
lIuntley, Esq, the audience joining i'll
the chorus. Cheer after cheer rent
the air, and the utmost enthusiasm
prevailed. Floyd county has pledged
three hundred majority for Lincoln
and Hamlin, but there is danger that
we cannot keep the number down to
that figure.

Douglas StOrk Declining.

The Chicago Times, Douglass Or
gan, has been sold to the proprietors
Of the Herald of the same city. The
latter paper was started to defend the
administration on the LccomptOn is
sue, and has always been bold and
fearless advocate Of all the measures
Of Mr.. Buchanan. The Herald, for
policy's sake, and to pave the way
for swallowing the Times, recently
run up the Douglas colorS. Mcssrs
Shchan and Price, the proprictors of
the Times, worked hard to secure the
nomination of the little giant :"
but the circumstances under which he
succeeded at Baltimore, have rendered
his election hopeless, and they have,
under the circumstances, wisely dis
posed of their sheet. This fact shows
conclusiveIy that they have lost all
hope Of ever seeing their pet candi-
date, the "artluI dodgcr," President
Had they seen the least chance for his
elevation to that high Office, they
would have retained their interest in
the paper.
The fact is. Douglas stock, in most
of the States, is on the rapid Decline
1t is doubtful if there will be an cleo
toral ticket for Douglas in Tennessee
and North Carolina, and almost GER
tain that there will be none in Texas,
Mississippi, Florida and Arkansas.
South Carolina, which chooses Prcsi-
Dental electors by her Legislature, is
sure to give her vote to breckenridge.
The Democratic State Convention
Of Kentucky unanimously endorses
breckenridge and Lane In Mary
land there are four tickets in the field
and Bell and Everett have the great

nothing. He stands no better chance
of carrying either OF those States
than Lincoln docs Of carrying Nir-
ginia. In the Old Dominion, the
newspapers, one by one, have been
dropping Douglas, until he has scarce
~ one advocate of his claims left.
This state Of things at the South is
having its effect at the North. 1t is
seen that Douglas has not the rcmot.
est chance Of carrying Il Slave State,
and therefore many of his followers
in Iowa and other Free States are
abandoning him and coming to the
support Of Mr. Lincoln.

9 The Fierce DemOcracie.'

The developments of divisions in
the Democratic ranks are making
rapid progress. Rival ratification
meetings have aroused bitter feelings
Of antagonism wherever held. And
where, as in most cases yet in the
North, meetings for Douglas have on
ly occurred, the absence from them of
most Of the leaders of the party, and
their want Of large numbers or warm
enthusiasm, have told too plainly the
ruin that has OvCrtakcn this long
powerful organization. 1t is only
now and then Douglas meeting in
the West that proves at all success
full, and these are in localities where
the party are hopclcssly in a minority.
The ratification meetings recently
held in New York city, Hartford,
Springfield, Providence, Boston, WASH
inSton, etc, fatally developed the di-
vision and paralyzation that have
come upon the party. 1t is not that
the bulk of the northern democrats do
not prefer Douglas, for they do-and
Breckenridge meetings in most Of
these places, if ever held, will be
even sorricr exhibitions of popular

A Great Conversion.

On returning to our sanctum," on
Tuesday, after few days absence,
we were surprised to find lying upon
our table a communication from VIM.
II. Johnson, Esq, Postmaster at Mar
Die Rock in this county, More than
being Postmaster, Mr.. Johnson has
been the leader and most ardent
and successful worker among the De
mocracy in his town aud county. We
are glad to hail Mr.. Johnson as a CO.
laborcr with us in the ranks for we
have long known him to be man
whose impulses were for the right,
and in the article which follows he
shows that after due and serious de-
liberation he determines that his acts
shall also be for the right. But let
Mr.. Johnson give his own reasons:
Ny reasons for supporting tie Chicogo
Plouorm IF Prtncpics:
Mr.. EDlroR Il find that, in the
Chicago Platform of principles, the
great principle Of progress is repre-
scented and on examination, its ont
ward and onward tendency is apparent.
1t is Democratic in that it has heart
for action, and motives to actuatc Il
world. 1t manilcsts confidence i'll
man, and an abiding reliance in his
high destiny. 1t grasps at the larg-
est liberty, the greatest good, the
surcst happiness. 1t aims to build
up the great interests of the many, TO
the least dctrimcnt Of the few. 1t re-
members the past without ncglccting
the present. 1t cares for the weak,
while it permits no Injustice to the
strong. 1t subducs the opprcssor and
arms the subject Of tyranny for free
dom.
The Chicago Platform of principles
is uncompromising and, in the Ian.
guaGc OF Senator Allen, of Ohio, |
claim it to be Democratic. When
snccringly asked what is Dcmocra-
cy," Mr.. Allen replied Democracy
is a sentiment not to be appalled,, cor
ruptcd or compromised. 1t knows no
bascncss it covers to no danger il
no lreohRcSs destructive only
OF dcSpotism, it is the sole conscrva-
tor of liberty, labor and property. 1t
is the sentiment of freedom, Of equal
rights, Of equal obligations, the law
of nature pcrvading the law Of the
land And Judge Marshall has said,
" that the lavOritc maXims Of Dcmoc-
racy, are strict observance e JUS
ticc and public faith, and a steady ad.
hercncc to virtue"
