The Vote for mr.. nougIa..

The Little Giant gained nothing from
Charleston to Baltimore except by bogu,
delegates. By analyziDg the vote by which
he was nominated, it will be found ideuti
cal with that at Charleston, except the bo.
gus delegates from Alabama and Louisiana
Less than two-tbirds of full Convention
were present.
The New York Herald's Baltimore dis.
patch says "the Southern men laugh at the
idea that the nomination of Douglas is any
nomination at all, Before the breaking up
of the Convention his highest vote was
1901; but from that must be taken minor
ittes which were swallowed up by the unit
rule. The exact votes for him, if heads
were polIed, would be lS8-considerably
less than a majority"

Nr. HamIIn ana one Homestend nlII.

A sufficient refutation of the lame at.
tempt of the democratic papers to fix in
consistency on the Chicago Convention in
adopting resolution approving the Home
stead Bill from the House, and then nomi-
mating Mr. Hamlin, who sometime in his
Senatorial life had voted against Home
stead measure, is found in the simple fact
that Mr.. Hamlin voted in favor of the
House Homestead bill, endorsed by the
Republican Convention, every time it came
up in the Senate, and heartily united with
the Republican minority in vainly endeav-
oring to prevent the Anti Homestead De-
mocracy from substituting their original
land graduation bill-the merest abortion u
the world for Homestead measure.

"FouRTH OF July CELEBRAr1oN-Near-
Iy 5000 an Prizes to be Won.-The ar
rangements for the Fourth are near enough
completed to give the reader an idea Of
what is to be done. In the first place, there
are prizes of nearly one hundred dollars, to
be awarded to the fire company making the
best throw of water. Then there are to be
a number of prizes for military and music.
In addition to this, the ladies are preparing
beautiful flag, which they propose to pre-
sent to the best drilled military company
Already have five or six military and fire
companies signalized their determination to
be present to compete for prizes. The Brass
Band of Fremont has been engaged to make
music for them on the occasion.
The No. Fire Company of Toledo offer
a challenge to any company in the State,
and especially those of Dayton, Norwalk

Lane Nominated.
The Secedors from the Rump Conven.
ton met in the Maryland Institute. which
was crowded with Delegates and spectators.
and permanently organized BY elecling Hon
Caleb Gushing, President. His acceptance
was received with great applause. The
States represented ia whole or 10 part were
Vermont, Massachusetts, Now York. Penn.
sylvania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia,
North Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama,
Louisiana, Texas, Mississippi, Arkansas,
Missouri, Tennessee, Kentucky, Iowa. Min
nesota, California and Oregon-22. The
platform of the Seceders at Charleston was
adopted without any change, and the Con-
vention unanimously nominated John G..
Breckenridge, Of Kentucky, for President,
and Joseph Lane, of Oregon, for Vice Pres
ident. Philadelphia was designated as the
place Of holding the next National Conven-
ton. States not represented were invited
to run electoral tickets for Breckenridge and
Lane.
The Seceders claim to be tho legitimate
National Democracy, and that their Con
vention was the only Democratic National
Convention. 1t was certainly respectable
in numbers, good order, and dispatch of
business. Its session in Baltimore was but
ono day, and the proceedings were marked
by harmony and enthusiasm. The ticket
presented in real worth and statesmansbip
is far ahead of that of the Rumpites. and
we look for its large support in the South
and considerable vote for it in the North
and West.
The nominations are hailed with entbu-
slasm by the Ant-Douglas Democrats in
this city, and tho National Democrat upfirls

New Running Arrangement on the 8. II
81 @. Railroad,

q @. Railroad.
We are glad to notice change in the
running arrangement of the Sanduskv
Dayton and Cincinnati Railroad, which we
think the travelling public have long de.
manded. We understand it is the inton.
ton of the Company to alter the running
time of the present Night Express so as
to better accommodate the constantly in.
creasing local travel at each end of their
road
On and after Monday, July End, a train
will leave Kenton in the morning each
way, for Sandusky and Dayton. The one
for Sandusky will connect at Carey with
the train for Findlay; at Clyde, with the
train from Cleveland, arriving at Sanduskv
at about 10 or o'clock A. NJ, giving per-
sons wishing to visit Sandusky all day to
do business in, and reach home apain the
same evening.
The train will leave for the South in the
afternoon about six or seven, so as to con-
meet at Clyde with the train for Toledo and
Cleveland. Passengers can take this train
and be in Cincinnati at 10 A. M. next
morning.
The morning train from Kenton to Day
ton will run upon the present time of the
Huntsville accommodation.
We hope the disposition thus shown to
accommodate the local business of the
road will be properly appreciated by the
travelling public. We can give the time of
leaving and running more definitely as soon
as all arrangements are complcted-.San-
datSkY ReQiSter.

A Baltimore dispatch SAYS:

Yesterday a gentleman of Louisiana
made two bets with Mr. Duncan, of Ken
tucky-one of a thousand dollars that Mr..
Doug las will not carry the electoral vote of
Illinois, and another of thousand dollars
that the Breckenridge ticket will obtain a
larger vote throughout the country than the
Douglas ticket. Few, however, will hazard
the assertion that either can be elected by
the people, and the alternative is obvious
that either Lincoln will be elected, or the
election will be thrown into Congress.
The regular Louisiana delegates have
plenty of money to spend on the election,
being worth among them thirteen millions
of dollars.

The Baltimore Clipper says of the Ma.

There cannot be doubt that this Con.

than that at Charleston. Its doom is fixed
It was once noble and patriotic party
It was till lately powerful and arrogant in
its might, but the worm Of corruption has
long been gnawing at its vitals. It's won
drous beauty has long since passed away,
and the friends that knew it know it now
no more. Now the fell grasp of the incu-
rable disease Of slavery agitation has seized
upon it, and we shall soon be called upon to
toll the passing Bell in honor of its demise.
