The County Convention.

In another column we publish the pro-
eeedings Of the Democrstic County Con-
vention held on Saturday last. 1t is need
less for US to say that the ticket presented
to the Democracy for their support at the
October election is unobjectioneble both in
regard to the ability and orthodoxy of the
nominees. The platform is one that will
commend itself to every Democrat, in the
county.
Now that our National, State and County
tickets are in the field, we earnestly coll
upon the Democracy to perfect their organi-
cations and 60 to work at once. There is
plenty OF work to be done. We have o
Republican msjority of 600 to overcome,
and it is only by repeated efforts, by hard
fighting, that we can reduce it, and place
old Portage in the list Of Democratic coun-
ties. Form clubs, circulate documents,
newspapers, ETC., get up meetings, Dnd
while the Wide Awakes, like foolish virgins,
are wasting the oil in their lsmps, talk to
your neighbors and friends upon the political
issues OF the day.
Let our forces be brought into line at
once. Let Us not only resolve to conquer
the enemies of the Union, but let ms set
about attempting to Do it.

esrnest Lincoln "Wide Awakes" were 10.
Gated Immediately in front OF Phenix Block
discussing matters and things in general. in
reference to the future OF that interesting
and very useful order-tellng ever what
glorious times they designed TO have in as
tonishing the natives of the neighboring
towns, by visiting them and demonstrating
the beauties Of the Republican doctrines
&c., when the question of raising funds for
such occasions came up for discussion. One
of the party suggested as meOns OF "rais'
ing the wind" or rather the coal oil, thai
they should levy contributi ons on the vuriou:
candidates for public Office in the RePubli
can ranks, and unless they shelIed out pretty
freely the "Wide Awukes" should "repudi
ate." This plan was pretty generally ap
proved by the company present. So, gen
tlemeu, you who are hankering for tht
spois, prepare to shell out, or you may wake
up some of these dark nights and find your.
selves missing. THAT'S SO.

In selecting the District electors ten OF the

this arrangement will bring nearly all the

Douglas and Johnson, and that the latter
will Gerry New York by at least 80 900 ma.

what the bred Scott Case Decided.

The only question decided 10 the Dree
Scott case, was whether Dred Scott was
citizen of the United States. No decision
was made in regard to the powers OF Ter
ritorial Legislatures, for the simple reason
that no question involving those poweres
was before the Court. Bot hear Judge
Taney himself:
"Ths question is simply this: Cans ne
gro whose ancestors were imported into
this country, and sold os slaves, become
member of the political community formed
and brought into existence BY the Constitu'$
ton of the United States, and as such be-
come entitled TO all the rights and privi-
lepes, and immunities, guaranteed by that
instrument TO the citizenl One of which
rights is the privilege Of sueing in Court
Of the United States ia the cases specified
in the Constitution. =
Il will be observed, that the plea applies
to that class OF persons only whose, ances-
tors were negroes OF the African race, and
imported into this country and sold and hell
as slaves. The only matter tn issue betort
the Court, then, is, whether the decendants
OF such slaves, when they shall be emanci
pated, or who were born Of parente who hat
become free before their birth, are CITIZEN
of a state, in the sense in which the wor'
citizen is used in thu Constitution Of tn
United States. And this being the only mai
ter in disputap the pLeadin9s, the Cour
must be undef efstood as speakiag in-this opin
ion, of that cl.as only. That ID; OF thos
persons who Sfe the decendants of African
WHO were imported into this country, an
, sold as slaves.

Danish 1t.

"This miserable slavery question:" said
Senator Cri,tenden in his speech at Louis.
vile, the other day, "should be banished
from the councils of the nation. The Sou
thern Senators themselves, only the other
day, agreed that there is no case now calling
for the exercise or Federsl power in behalf
of slavery. The case very probnbly will
never occur. There is not now q single
piece of territory to which slavery would 90
if invited. We have nothing to quarrel
about. Why 20 into distant futurity 10
borrow trouble! Why squabbIe over what
we should do in certain conlingen cies that
may not occur, even to our children's chill.
