AeT OF Nne U0zS"S nds oecu assdsi'nE,
and villifying the DEMOCRAT AND News
in the most abusive and insulting man.
. net, and We have foreborne treating bis
attacks with the severity they deserve,
in the hope that some one Of bis more
sensible and discreet associates, either
ALI Sanders or Bob Litter, would put
stop to his blackguard's%, and persuade
b IN to attempt a gen,lemanly and high
toned m,de of editorial gS~ewlpn. 10

is altogether Idle. therefore, for MS TO
discuss the political questions Of the day
with him, unless we adopt mode Of
disputat'oa suited to his vulgar and sour
rillous character. To propose gentle.
manly discussion with such fellows as
Add Sanders, is about as foolish as to
throw pea,ls before swine. lie cannot
appreciate courtesy, forbcarance, reason
or argument, though he can understand
the merits Of the lash, which, on more
than one occasion, we have applied to
his quivering back, with terrible effect.
In the Gazette Of yesterday, tho ''little
joker" says that in supporting the reg
ular nominee Of the Democratic party,
our course is not that Of fuU yrOpn
men. Full grown men! Surely, lit
tie whifiet like Add Sanders is nice
person to speak for "full grown menu
What does the little triflcr know of men
or manhood He has a brother who
knows something about niger consem
in Memphis, and who had opportunities
for selt-research and reflections upon hu-
man character, in the solitude Of a
chamber enclosed with four stone walls,
but on the strength OF his brothers ex-
perience, the little joker" should not SC,
himself up as the arbiter to decide what
is or what is not, the course for full
grown men. As for the manliness Of
our course, VIC care not what Black
Republican b!ackguards may think OF
it; it is enough for us to know that
it has the approval of our own con-
science, and accords with Democratic
principle. That may be, and, doubt
less, is higher standard than an
apostate Know Nothing can understand
or appreciate. 1t is all very well for
those who like such uonsense to read,
that our "fee.ings are against Douglas
that our "real sympathies are with the
Administration and Beckinridge," tina,
"our course is child-like in the extreme
and ian insult and injury to the Admin
istrstion," but it strikes us that an editor
is presuning upon the ignorance Of bis
readers, when he offers such assertions
to them as political intelligence"
Why, you stupid little jack, don't
you suppose your readers remember
that you was in favor of Seward, and
afterwards came out for Lincoln, and
that they will perceive that there is no
more inconsistency in our supporting
Douglas after having advocated the
nomination CT Breckin idxe than there
is in your sustaining Lincoln after hav-
lug supported Seward? Do you admit
that you are inconsistent in supporting
Lincoln because, before the Convention
met, you supported Seward? Do we
adopt your ssinine style and charge
You with having betrayed Seward, be-
cause you acquiescc in your party's
nominations and support Lincoln? No.
We would not insult the intelligence o!
our readers by calling you or any other
party man traitor because you support
regular nominee, who did not happen
to be your first choice. And Yet, even
since We announced our determination
TO support Judge Douglas because be is
the regular nominee of tho Democratic
purity, you have, day after day, racked
that part of your person designed for
the seat Of the brain, for all manner of
farfetchei jokes and dirty slang, which
you have sung at us until you have ex
hausted yourselves with your foolish et-
forts. You talk of betraying the Ad-
mlnlstration and Mr.. Breckenridge
fou' who are eating the bread, and DO
ing the dirty work, of treason! You
who sold yourself your little body and
your smaller soul, for chair in the Ca
sesfe office! You, who supported Mil
