.a OuR readers, we doubt not, read
an extract of speech made by
Mr.. Douglas, in the U. S. Senate,
some time back, and inserted by US
in the Democratic Press of last
week. The Eaton Register" of
this week, thinks we have not done
full justice to Senator Douglas,
we have to say IN reply, that we
believe Mr.. Douglas to be a great,
wise, and fine statesman, and we
have no doubt that, like all other
moral agents, he is governed by
motives, and, consequently, he
thought and believed what he sale
in the Senate, but circumstances
over which he had no control, hav'
, led him to yield to new and forcibl
convictions, and he has TINS modi
