The Gazette tackles Senator Douglas
for his inconsistsncieA and says hard
things sosoernipg the Chief Interpreter
Of the Lincolnio riddle-the Inaugural.
This is lamentable, Of oourss. Yet, be-
fore our nsighbor INDUCES too far in
pointing ont notes in Mr.. Douglas eyes
would it not be we'll to look after
the shortcomings Of his own po-
litical family . little. For instance !:
Look 1t the Chicago 'Platform-the
grand work Of the Republican party.
It Nys in 20 many words: The nor
NAL condition Of al the 7srritoriss Of
the United States Is that Of freedom"
Thi. is q positive declaration. Nov
read: I'VE deny the authority Of Obn-
gress, or cfa Territorial Legislaturs q
Of any indiUid4aIs to give legal eris-
tence to slavery IN any Trritory ofthe
United States" This 10 also q fiat
footed proposition. They mean a. they
read, and upon them the PresidentisI
battle was fought and Lincoln elected.
Let 10 look further. A few weeks
ago, Republican Congress passed an
act creating the Territories Of Nevada,
Colorado and Dacotah-comprising all
the normal Territory Of the United
States. This Republican Congress in
framing the creative act stipulated that
the people Of those Territories should
"6e left perfectly free to form and reg
ulate their domestic institutions in their
ovn soay, thus admitting thst Congress,
that Territorial legisIatares, and that
indiuiduals haze the authority to give
legal existence to slavery in at least
those three last created Territories.
Does our neighbor discover any inccn-
sistencies here Does he s'stand firm"
yet 10 his backbone still stiff on
prescribing the Territories for free
dom r. Does he still counsel not the
least abandonment, ~ to anything, Of
the principles laid down in the Chicago
Platform 2 Does he still pray every
day that the Republican party will never
truckIe, or cringe, or knuckle down to
the principles Of the Democratic party
Let him make a thorough diagnosis OF
his case and present it to the public.
Let him, before he traduces Senator
Douglas for what he may have said, ex-
anime his own parties record for few
months past and see if there are yet
enough righteous men left within its
ranks to preserve the balance from i'm
pending destruction from that abyss Of
misery which is gaping so wide to re-

THE Gazette has partaken largely of
the New York zribune'a fears in regard
TO Judge Douglas. 1t is almost persua-
died. that Douglas is feeling around to
get a good hold, in order that he may
strangle the present administration
even ia its cradle. We are inclined to
the opinion that our neighbors' fears are
perfectly groundles'. Mr.. Douglas il
not such simpleton that he cannot see
that the present administration let alone
will strangle itself in less than six
months. SO far the construction which
Mr. Douglas placed upon the Inaugural
has proven correct. He said there
would be no war, no coercion, and SO
far there has been none. We are in.
cined to the belief there will be none.
What sticks in the crop Of our co,empo-
rary is the fact that Douglas placed a
true construction on the Inaugural. 1t
hates the very ,ponght like poison, and
consequently pitches into the Little
Giant to distract attention. As tho
cords which are cnmeshipg the admin
istration draw tighter and tighter, and
as each day more fully demonstrates the
fact that Lincoln il not the man the ul-
ira Republicans supposed him to be, The
spasms become more frequent and alarm.

setts find some panaoea in her herb bias.

A FRENCHwOMAN NOT DECEIVED BY
THE SPLENDoR Of UNIFoRM-Count
d'Orsenne one day accompanied the EN-
peror on hunting excursion. The En-
pelor had been complaining of thirst,
and some one seeing woman at little
distance, called to her. The woman did
net know Napoleon or any Of the escort.
She gave the Emperor a glass of water
mixed with little brandy, and then
courtesied for payment. "There, my
good woman" said Napoleon, pointing
to Count d'Orsenne, "there is the En-
peror, he pays for us ALL" The woman
blushed and looked embarrassed, then
turning to the count she scanned his
splendid uniform with tho eye of . con-
nisseur, and said, "He, pooh, nonsense
DO yon think l believe that !! The EN-
peror is not such coxcomb. You sir,
look more like him yourself" The EN-
peror was much amused at the remark.
and gave the woman double louis.

Suppose he does call special session,
and that special session clothes him

The chairman of the Breckenridge
California State Central Committee has
called meeting of that body to Sacra-
meOto on the Goth inst, to consider the
perilous crisis in our national affairs. He
urges the following resolution for the
meeting !:
Let US have union if we can, peacea.
ble dissolution if we must, but conflict
never. If a peaceable dissolution comes
why should California remain with the
free States if a bloody separation, Why
should she not establish Pacific ma
tionality! Is she willing to be dragged
into war with Southern Confederacy
OF her sisters! Should such Confeder-
acy be irrevocably established, ought
she not to demand of the other tree
States to consent to peaceful separa-
ton, If any must come. as an unyieIding
condition OF her remaining with them !?
Does not Lincoln's foreshadowed poll.
cy Of executing the laws in the Federal
States imply force, coercion and war
Are our people really to plunge into an
arc by, and suffer the ravsges Of such .
war! These are the momentous ques-
tions to be considered.

The Savannah Republican finds but
one objection to the Montgomery Con-
stitution, and that is concerning mail
service:
After the lst Of March, 1863, it is
provided that our mail facilities shall
DO confined to such a. the receipts of the
Department will pay for. This We be
lieve an error, and have not the slightest
doubt but that experience will prove the
correctness Of the opinion. This question
though. has already been fully argued in
these columns, and it u unnecessary to
repeat what has been said. It would
have been wise, a. least, to have left the
whole question open, to be regulated by
iav, according to the lights ofexperience
and the circumstances Of tho time.
