the majority, it contemps the masses, boids
no association with labor, and utters no word
of encouragement to the poor. lts profess
sions are impostures, and must soon fail TO
deceive Ii has become worse than the ally
of slavery--it lie its plant and prostituted
tool Wisdom and propriety must alike 70"
pudiate ii, unless speedily regenerated.
Our true policy 10 that of resistance TO the
extravagant and unconstitutional demands
of the South. We can only make it efectual
in one way-hy the support of MIR. Lincoln.
He is honest and capable, and attached to
the principles of the Constitution, and bis
election will assign limits to sectional OIL
garchy, and make labor honorable and remu-
nerative.
The question, in les true aspect, 10 not "a
to which candidate should be elected by the
people it il this: shall MIR. Lincoln be elect
ed The one hundred and twenty Electoral
votes of the South will be divided mainly, ii
not exclusively, between MIR. Bell and Mr..
Breckenridge, and their support will be al
most, If not entirely, confined to that section.
| Such effective force as Mr.. Douglas may pos
sess, is in the North; bat his most sanguine
| friends admit not only that his election 10
| impossible, but that he cannot carry over
two or three States. The body OF the North.
ern vote will be given TO MIR. Lincoln. MIR.
Douglass supporters can do nothing for
| him the only significant result they can pos.
sibly produce, will be TO withdraw enough
strength from Mr.. Lincoln to throw the cleo
ton into the House. This done, and Lane
would certainly be chosen by the Senate
the condition Of parties in the House being
such as to prevent majority OF the States
agreeing to either of the candidates. Rest
ing on these admissions, for they are accept.
ed universally, we discover that every vote
given to Mr.. Douglas, must tend to the ele'
walton of Lane, who, possessing neither edu'
cation, experience, nor executive ability, has
been selected to enable the South to make
the most out OF an accident in case it shall
occur. To out-Lane Lane in apostacy te
the North, and in crouehing, fawning sub
serviency to the South, need not be attempt
ed by the most ambitious in that line-no
even by a Federal Office holder. Even If
could believe that the leopard could chang
his spots, and Mr.. Douglas do the North just
Joe, | would not sustain him under the cir
cumstanoes which surround US, and amid tn
perils which now environ us.

Keokuk Journal VS.. Douglas.
Evidently the Douglas platform is too ma

bFueutiy the Dougias pldti orm Is 100 mar
rev for his followers. The Journal says:
'sMr. Douglas, so far from believing that
the Constitution, propria eigore, carries
slavery into the Territories, does not believe
that that instrument confers any right upon
the slave owner to take his property there
But MIR. Douglas himself says that be be-
lieves just the opposite Of what the Journal
alleges. Ip his speech in the Senate of the
United States, Feb. %, 1859, Douglas said,
In reply to Senator Brown of Mississippi:
we agree that under the decision OF the
Supreme Court OF the United States, SLAVES
are property, standing on an equal footing
fcf.h all other property; and that conse
right 10 emigrate to Territory, and carry
his Stare property ctth him, as the owner OF
any other species of property has to move
there and carry his property with him. Thus
far the Senator from Mississippi and myself
agree--that slave property in the Territories
stands on an equal footing with every other
species of property"
Douglas said that he agreed with Brown
and believed that under the decision of thu
Supreme Court laveholders had right Il
take slaves to tho Territories and hold then
there just as any other species of property.
Why does the Journal misrepresens Doug
las and seek TO conceal his opinions from it
readers?

MAN MURpERED.-A man named johnson
was shot in Shelby county, about six miles
from Harlan, on last Friday night, by MIR.
William Cuppy. II seems that MIR. Cuppg
and this johnson and his father had been on
very bad terms for long time, and that on
this occasion Mr. Rubendall and some other
man had got into fight, and Cuppv was in
terfering BY kicking Rubendall, when the
two Johnsons came up; when Cuppy turned
around and fred upon the young man who
reiterated into the bushes, and as he came
