4 committee from Tennessee waited on Mr. DOUG-
LAS while he was in this city and urged him to visit
and speak in that State before the election. Mr..
DOUGLAS, we are informed, made no appointment,
but promised to do so, if he could make his arrange
ments as to fill it The gentlemen comprising this
committee are all Bell men and expect TO cote for Bel in
November! We learn, also, upon unquestionable au-
thOrity that of this committee sad while inthe
city. to some friends with whom he was talking
about the matter, that the they wanted DoUG-
LAS in Tennessee was that BELL was in a tight place,
and DOUGLAS could distract the Democracy, and thus
enable them (the Bellgerines) to carry the State :

WELL PUT.-The Huntsville Democrat quotes from
Mr. DOUGLAS first speech in Chicago in his Senate
rial canvass with LINCOLN, the following paragraph
'In other words, Mr.. Lincoln advocates BOLDLY
AND CLEARLY, a of sections a tcdr of the North
against the South, of free States against SaUe States
s;car Of erter1RinGtOn-to be continued relentessly
until the one the other shall be subdued and all
the States shall either become free or slave.''
With this clear definition of Mr.. LNCoLx's doc
trines and purposes, understood and expressed
by Mr.. DOUGLAS himself two years ago, the Demo-
crat wants to know why Mr.. DOUGLAS should uphold
Mr.. LINCOIN's administration against the South, if
the latter should decline to be made party to this
"war of sections"

Old Sullivan. All Right In the MOun-
tainR.

An intelligent and working Democrat writes to
US from B!ountville under date of October lst He
says:
We are all up and doing good work in this county
and section of the State for our cause. We have a
pretty thorough organization in our county. We
have Breckenridge and Lane club at this place
which is working finely, with subcommittee in
every civil district throughout the county We
think we know every Douglas in our county,
they do not number more than twenty-five voters
You may expect good report from the sterling
Democracy of old Sullivan the day of election,
if our people come out and l think there is no
danger. The Democracy fully aroused and we
shall certainly give Breckenridge and Lane as large
a majority as we did Gov. Harris last August We
hope to increase it. Our working men are active
and will not cease their efforts until the election is
over We shall not loose fifty Douglas votes in this
senatorial district

Democracy of that county on the political issues of
the canvass. They will be panied to learn of his

recent speech said, in speaking of Mr.. DOUGLAS:
well now, let us have three cheers for Douglas"
Immense laughter but no cheers What" said
Mr.. Sherman, ARE there Douglas men here-will
no one cheer for Douglas? He would tell them why
he had called for three cheers for Douglas cqs for
the great service that gentleman had done in Jeaing up
the Democratic party
And then, of Mr.. BELL:
He had answered the queries of the crowd about
the Helper book, and he was now ready to answer
any other question. [Cheers and shouts for John
Bell Mr. Sherman took off his hat, waved it, and
said, yes three cheers for John Bell that he knew
that distinguished man well, and approved highly OF
his lohOe public life but he had not the ghost
of chance for the Presidency
Mr.. SHERMAN, who signed the recommendation of
the infamous Helper book and was the representa-
tive of the Helperites in Congress, proposes three
cheers for DoUGIAs ''for the great service he has
done in breaking up the Democratic party - and the
same vile enemy of the South and of Southern in
situations, says he knows JOHN BELL, and approves

Progres, Of the Good WORK in Georgia.


A correspondent of that most spirited Democratic
Journal the Columbus (Ga.) Times, gives the follow
ing cheering account of a recent meeting in Cuth-
bert county, in that State. 1t is out of num-
Der of similar accounts which we find in our South
ern exchanges
The friends of Breckenridge and Lane met in the
Court House at Cuthbert Ga, on Tuesday night, the
18th inst. in large numbers, for the purpose OF
forming club They had a rOtSing time of it,
Clement A. Evans. our gallant alternate made one
oil his unanswerable speeches. showing the unsOund-
ness of John Bell and calling upon his Opposition
friends to rally the of truth and the equality
Of the States. Hon. Thomas R. Stewart, promi-
nent member of the Opposition, elected by them
last year Ordinary of the county, made telling
speech giving his reasons why he could not go with
tne "Monstrosity" party of John Bell. Our OPpO-
slton friend Colonel David H. Jones, gave his rea-
sons Tor refusing his support to Bell and planting
nlseH ialrly and squarely with the friends of the
Union with Equality. Dr. John Hammi gave his
reasons Or giving up his former associates, and sup
porting breckenridge and Lane. Col Alfred NJ
GeOrge, prominent member of the Opposition was
present, cordially cooperating with the true friends
OF the constitutional rights of the South, besides
other Of our Opposition friends. Roll on the BALL
the great power of principle must prevail over the
ties OF parties. We hazard nothing in saying that
more OF the true meu of the Opposition will support
our ticket in this county than former Democrats who
will support Douglas.
This is the way the BELL EvERETTs are gaining
strength everywhere, Ouer cleft From al parts of
the State and the South, says the Columbus (Ga)
Times, are receiving daily intelligence, from the
most reliable sources, of the abandonment of John
Bell, and his "free-soil afnites" by the flower of
his party. In almost every county away from the
larger cities the places in tie ranks Of the Democ
racy made vacant by the secesson.o Douglas, will
be amply supplied by the accession from the Oppo-
siton. There is no necessity for Bell to come down.
he will be but little in anybOdy's way.

The last Tuscarawas Advocate says: "In
few weeks the Dover Furnace will be
stopped-the hand discharged; and the
immense bed of iron ore in Turcarawas
county will be valueless. The owners of
the Furnace say that we have an excellent
quality of iron ore--but without a Tariff,
they cannot compete in our market with
the Iron-masters of England. In this
country wages are higher than they are in
Europe, and to enable US to manufacture
Iron and compete with English capitalists
we must either have Tariff or wages must
be reduced. All admit that laborers can
not work for less than they do at present, if
they live comfortably, and educate their
families respectfully.
ain this county over two hundred and
fifty thousand dollars have been lost by
men of wealth in trying to develop ouriron
interest. Nearly one-half that amount
has been sunk in Dover, and the remainder
in Zoar. Yet the slave-Democratic leaders
continue to howl in favor of the present
Free trade policy"
