PERSONAL VS.. PARTY NOMINATIONS
FOR TIE PREsIDENcY.-Of the candi-
dates in the field for the next Pres
idency, only two represent living
party organizations. bIr. Douglas
stands at the head Of a ragged aud
broken column; Nj. Bell was 1omi-
mated by a convention of fossil
Wbigs and broken down Know
Nothing politicians; Sam Houston's
army is Of the Falstalfisn order, and
so on through the list, up to Breck-
inridge and Lincoln, both OF whom
are backed by powerful party organ
izations, and have a certain am cunt
of definite support. That Lincoln
will carry the bulk Of the eIe ctorsl
vote North is beyond per adventure,
That Breckinridge will be equally
strong in the South admits Of no
reasonable doubt. The other can
didates are all personal represe nta.
tives Of eliques, and have nc
strength beyond the support of theil
immediate friends. Choose, then, be.
tween Breckenridge and Lincoln

Sharp Management.

After Douglas was nominated II
the Convention at Baltimore, the fol
loving resolution was added to the
platform, at the instance oil Gov
WicklifIe, of Louisiana, who declared
that it would be worth forty thou
sand votes to the s1uatter candidates:
RESOLVED, That it is in accordance
with the true Interpretation OF the
Cincinnati platform, that during the
existence of territorial government
the measure of restriction, whatever
it may be, imposed by the Federal
Constitutions on the powers OF the
Territorial Legislature ever the SUBJ
iect of domestic relations, as the
same has been or shall hereafter be
fully determined by the Supreme
Court of the United States, should be
respected by all good citizens, and be
enforced with promptness and fidelity
by every branch OF the Federal dov'
ernment.

How THE REPUBLICANS REGARD
DOUGLAS SPEEcHEs.-The Albany

Douglas recent speech there as fol.
lows:
"Mr. Lincoln If called out by his
friends, would have given expression
TO these sentiments. Thy are the
sentiments of Ike Republican par
g. In oil the Slavery agitations
in Congress, since 1850, Republicans
have acted onthe defensive. Slavery
has been the aggressor.
"ThegrOuBd Judge Douglas is CON-
PEELED to occupy shows vhers things
are drifting. His section of the
Democratic party has ceased to be
the Pro-Slavery party. 1t is now in
the position Gas to Slavery Of the
Democratic Free soil party in 1913.
Whether, Ike that party, it viii.
when the election is over, slime back,
remains to be SEEN. Probably not.
The census may influences lis course.
In The meantime, the principles here
announced by Douglas will be riHdi-
cated and established by the election

Mr.. Douglas thinks If he is not
elected the Union will be dissolved.
Well, old Sam Houston thinks if he
is not elected, the same catastrophe
will occur; and even John Bell
thinks the salvation of the Union
depends on bis election. These
gentlemen are all excited however,
and we are glad to know the safety
Of the Union does not depend on
either Of them. The people are
going to take care of their country
for the future and they are going

The Donglasites and Opposltionlsts
are very anxious to make the lmpres.
sion that Douglas was nominated
by a two.thirds vote. The truth Is,
MIR. Douglas never received more
than 1871 votes, and that number
was made up by turning out the reg
'ular delegates and giving their seats
to bogus delegates. MIR. Douglas re-
ceived only 1914 votes bya ,riok, a
unit rule, ,and never did get two-thlrds,
which would require 202 votes. The
bogus convention, that nominated
Douglas, never bad, according to
their own figures. but 1914 delegates,
including bogus delegates. and the
resolution adopted does not say that
he received two-tbirds, but "two'
thirds Of the votes cast" We say
he never did receive tvo.thlrds o.
. The votes Of The representatives o.

The Louisville Journal thinks tbs.
the disruption Of the Democratic
party is likely TO secure to Bell and
Everett nearly if not every State of
the South. This comfortable bope
the Journal derives from the chances
for the organization of Douglas Elec-
toral tickets in these States. Ii will
thus be seen that the OppositiOn
press have not been the least interas-
ted parties in fomenting the Douglas
movement of the South.
