DR.. Breckenridge on Slavery.

DIR. Breckenridge, of Kentucky, on taking
his seat as temporary chairman Of the Balti-
more Convention, said it was as sure as any
thing under Heaven could be certain, that Mr..
Lincoln would be nominated and elected. He
spoke Of the grandeur Of the movement, and
urged the importance Of laying down with
clearness and precision the principles on
which the party is to be organized, and on
which the contest is to be fought. We want
only thoee who are like us to be with us.
The first principle is, that we do not intend
to allow this Union TO be destroyed, and, God
helping us, we viii vindicate that principle so
that ii will hereafter never be disputed. This
generation and the present Union party are
more devoted TO the Constitution than any
generation that has ever lived. Still our Fed
eral life does not depend on the Constitution,
and il we find 1t necessary we car. and will
change it. We win defend IL even to the put
ting to death Of those who trample it under
foot, If we can get rid Of them in no other
way. At the same time we will alter 1t to
suit ourselves and to suit our exigencies.

far as possible, where IT was before the war

A New Chariot.

We have received the first number of q new
paper, called the "Chariot of Wisdom and
Lore" conducted by ]. Hacker, formerly of
the Portland Pleasure Boat. Mr.. Hacker is
. vigorous writer an independent IL not &C.
centric thinker, and seems to have become
fully impressed with the spiritualistic theory,
to the dissemination or which. In part at least,
he intends to devote his new "Chariot."
Whether all the believers in that doctrine
will accept his teachings is to our mind some
what questionable. We doubt il q very large
proportion Of the more sensible ones of that
persuasion will agree with Mr.. Hacker in the
following editorial paragraph:
I could name forty old ladies within the
circle OF my acquaintance, any one of whom
could have headed our army and prosecuted
. more vigorous war than Lincoln has, aud at
much less expense and loss of life.
The following 'cut direct" at the Institution
Of marriage and the family relation, will not
be likely to receive the sanction OF any one
except the disciples OF Free Loveism-an ism
by no means, as we understand it, necessarily
connected with spiritualism. We hope the
reader win pardon us for any seeming viola

Capt. Coles English Turrst Shin.

Capt. Coles, an English officer who has
claimed good deal Of the credit which be-
longs to Ericsson, has come to grief. At any
rate, his turreted vessel, Royal Sovereign,is in
bad way. She was completed in April. and
then made a trial trip. The sangune cap
tain no doubt thought that the hour had
come TO demonstrate the superiority of his
vessel over the American monitors. But be-
fore her trip was half completed, the captain
and all on board were amazed to find that
steam was filling the vessel. 1t soon appear
ed that the stop valve box and its communi-
cation with the steam pipe had been torn off
the aft boilers. 1t soon became evident
that the accident was due TO fault in Capt.
Coles plan. He had placed one of the tur-
rets, weighing 1l3 tons, directly over the two
after boilers. The weight rested on four col
umns under the boilers. These columns are
within the space OF eight feet, and the weight
upon them caused the ships bottom to bulge,
thus changing the position of the boilers, and
causing the accident. II so happens that this
is the point which he has claimed was especial
ly strong. The captain will be ali tile less pre-
tentious for while at least-lProvidenc

Comprehend Logic.

Assuming the correctness OF an admission
of the New York Times, that chad Mr.. Breck-
inridge, or Mr. Douglas, or Mr.. Bell been Sc
lected, there would have been no rebellion
the Argus distinctly intimates that the south
is not to be censured for Its rebellion, and that
those who voted for Mr.. Lincoln were verify
guilty Of great wrong against the nations
peace. Now we suppose if a certain carpen-
ter's son in town called Nazareth, had not
exercised the prerogatiye of free speech and
the God-given power OF working miracles,
thereby putting to shame the sanciimonous
Seribes and Pharisees, those very respectable
and pious people would not have stained their
hands with his blood. Does it follow, there
fore, that the Jews were right, and that the
guilt usually ascribed TO them should be at
taehed TO him who "spake as never man
spake?p
Does the Argus regret that instead of Abra-
ham Lincoln and war for the defence OF
Liberty, we have not John G. Breckenridge
and submission 10 the rule OF 4 traitor,
Would that paper accept such a change of
affairs? Then indeed, would it go down upon

potism 4H
