The Patriot, we regret to 'say exhibits la mentable ignorance of the subject upon which it writes. We would be loth to suspect intentional misrepresentation. In order to sustain its charge that the friends of Buegeixridqe and Laxe " demand such terms as will insure their rejection," it quotes the following,from the card of R. S. Haldemax, Fob net Douolasite : ''The uudersigned having in full view the disasters to the country which would result from the elec tion of Lincon and Hamlin, have resolved to recom mend a Union Democratic Anti-Republican Elector i m al ticket, to be intormea in me louowing manner, to-wit: Tho twelve electors of tiie Reading ticket, which arc assented to by all branches of the Democratic party; ten electors selgcted by the friends of Bell and Everett; live additional electors from toe Reamn'o ticket, to be assented, to by a majority of the undersigned, in all twenty-seven, j to the committee of the several organizations to which they, belong 4 ' " Now the Patriot knows or ought to have known that after the disruption at Baltimore, a joint elec toral ticket was agreed upon by the friends of Br.ECKlMtilKJE and Docolas, and the manner in which the vote was to be cast by that ticket was agreed upon at Cresson. Upon that ticket there were twelve or more aTowed frichds of the Douc- tK Forxet and a few other Semi-Republican friends of Docolas repudiated tlie urcsnon arrange ment. Mr Douglas himself did it just as he has repu- pudiatcd every other arrangement that squinted at fusion with the friends of Brecxixuihge. But the en- tiro Breckkridce strength and the mass of the Docglas men in Pennsylvania still adhere to the Cres son adjustment. The Forxetites held a Convention at Reading two or three weeks since, at which Mr, Douglas was, andjat which he made a speech, and at which a straight out Docqlas electoral ticket, from pieginning'to end, was no'minatqd. This was, weeks after the Cresson meeting. Upon the Reading ticket the FoaxET-ites place the twelve Douglas men that were already on the Cresson ticket and put on fifteen oilier Docglas men thus forming their straight out Reading Doi'glas ticket.' Now let us examine the proposition of Mr. Haldeman, the rejection of which causes the Patriot to accuse tho Breckixridue men of demanding ''such' terms as will insure their re jection."" In order to form "a Union Democratic anti-Republican ticket' Haldemax proposes tenclec tors selected by the friends of Bell and Everett; " f leefce electors of Hie Heading ticket which arc assented toby all branches of the Democratic party " that is the twelve Douglas electors on the Cresson ticket ; " live additional electors from the Reading (Douglas straight out) ticket, to be assented to by a majority the undersigned? that is to be assented to by Haldeman. l)ouctas-itc, and.H.

Nott, both of this city, who have hitherto been supporters of Doug las, have, within a day or two past, avowed them belves aB supporters of Breckinridge and I.anc. The Jacksonville Democrat, of the 19th inst.. de fines its position in the following words : We have this day run up at our mast-head, the names of Breckinridge and Lane, as our chsice lor President and Vice President of the United States. We have delayed doing so. not from a desire to nhrink from responsibility, but to advocate tlie cause of him whose prospects are brighest to tri umph over Black Republicanism. We think our only hope is on this ticket, and wo think at a time like this, we should lay aside all party feeling at home. 'NU onr colon to the must AdJ lUnd by our country to the hut." Jt is now a death struggle with us, the verv salva tion of the government depends on this election. If I$reckinridge is elected ihe old ship of State 'will right, and sail dead ahead. The afiairs of the gov ernment will be judiciously administured, and all things will work together lor good. But if on tin contrary. Black Republicanism reigns triumphant, and the chair of Washington is disgraced by an ab olitionist, then the South may say, "PirH 1 a lon farewell to all oy'creatneM." There can be no possible chance for cither Bell or Douglas, and wc arc pursuing a suicidal course to support them. Let the South throw them both ovcr ioard and rally under the flag of the only one tint rai carry them safely through stormy sea. Hr. D. H.

No one doubts his receiving many mre than that, and if he does, Breckkeidgb and Douglas cannot both get ono hundred and forty votes; and if they cannot both get that number, they cannot both need the vote of tne State to make an election. The most enthusiastic devotee yf Douglas has not the remotest hope of electing his electoral ticket in this State. They know that their policy can only tend to aid Mr. Bell.

Wc do not ask them to endorse our principles or our candi dates. Wc do not endorse theirs. Bad as wc think Mr. Douglas, we think him better than Mr. Bell or Lincoln. In a contest between those three, -we should nrefer Douglas. All that we ask of the Douglas men is tovsay as much of Breckinridge But as was feared, the Douglas managers in this State indignantly reject, and bitterly denounce the BRrrrox proposition. The Chairman of tlie Douglas State Central Committee in this city, was called upon by a member of the Breckinridge State Central Committee, to see if the Douglas Committee would confer upon the subject and the Douglas Chairman informed him that the Douglas Committee would not confer upon tlie subject The Douclas organ in this city utterly and indignantly rejects the proposition, It says of tlie friends of Breckinridge, "Wc are ready to receive them after due acknowledgement .

Harvey M. Watierson, Douglas State Elector, is for "No Fusion." W. H. Carroll, Douglas Assist ant Elector for the State, is for "No Fusion." The Memphis Appeal (Douglas) says : "Whilst we have no authority to speak for the party at large in Tennessee, wc give it as our car nest individual convictions, that but one kind of co alition between the friends of Messrs. Douglas and Breckinridge can be made. If the latter will with iravs their electors now in the field and support the national nominees, we are perfectly willing that tlie disposition which the Union and American suggests shall be made of the electoral vote in case the ticket should triumph." R. M. Edwards, of Cleveland, one of the Douolab State Committee, "is decidedly opposed to putting Brecklveidge men in the Electoral College." Thus have the Douglas managers spoken in this State. From what we could learn of their feelings towards the friends of Mr. Breckinridge, wc feared that such would be tho result. The question now arises,, will the rank and file of Douglas men in this State, who are either at heart for Mr. Douglas, or who prefer Brkeclvkidge to Belt, or Lincoln, follow the dictation of such advisers, or will they reject such leaders, and act for themselves? weeks will determine. The next few John Bell in HXassachutictta. We have hitherto shown what difierent sentiments were entertained of Mr. Bell's record. North and South. At the recent Massachusetts B ell-Everett State Convention held for'the purpose of nomina ting an Electoral ticket and candidates for Governor and Lieutenant Governor, Hon. J. Thomas Steven son of Boston, was the principal speaker. He said to the Convention in reference to the charge that Mr. Bell was a pro-slavery man : "Whoever, therefore, whatever his purpose may be,delibcrately-dcclares that the party, which you to-day represent, is composed of "pro-slavery men," in any legitimate acceptation of the term, is either a monomaniac, or he means to deceive. John iJeS of Tennessee, an exponent of pro-slavery! His recor tciicA is open icWiout a blot on it. pxils to shame tlie allegation.

At that Convention Amos A. Lawrlxce was nomi nated as the Bell-Everett candidate for Governor That night a Ratification Meeting was held. Mr. Leverett Saltonstall, the son of the original Hart ford Convention Blue Light Federalist, Leverett Saltonstall, and who does Mr. Everett's correspond ence, as Chairman of the Massachusetts Bell-Everett State Committee, this Mr. Leverett Saltonltall spoke. Tho reporter of the Massachusetts Bell Everett organ, the Boston Courier, says : .Our friends at the South have to defend John Bell from the charge of bcinir an anti-slavcrv man, and they have more rea son, because they say, he stood manfully by John Quincy Adams m ins neiense oi uie ngni oi peti tion, and he battled against the Southern extremists for the sunnort of the Missouri Compromise, and aeainst its repeal. Mr. S. concluded his forcible re marks by a warm eulogism upon Everett, and a hearty and emphatic endorsement of the State ticket which the Convention had to-day presented to the voters e-f ..Massachusetts. Hon. Geo. S. Billiard, the leading Bell orator of that State, and one of the delegates, wc believe, that nominated Mr. Bell, was present at that ratification and also made a speech. In reference to their can didate for Governor, he said : "Amos A. Lawrence, the candidate who had been selected to-day, he had known from his youth up, and he could say to the people he was one of the purest, one of the most honest, one of the most up right oi men ; and not only mat, there was xo max in the Republican tarty who had doxb more por the cause or freedom, who had done so much, who HAD CONTRIBUTED MORE MONEY TOR KANSAS, THAN HE HAD.

He hoped that, all over the Siate, the cac would be put calmly and dispassionately, without any of that vulgarity and clap-trap which have become so much the staple of political missionaries. Mr. Clierrington, of Boston, next took the plat form and cave, briefly, his reasons for leavimr tho Republican party, in whose camp he reposed only three weeks ago. He was Republican still, but a Republican for tlie Union and the Constitution."

You well know, and will, I am sure, have the can dor to admit, that amonir the supporters of the Ne- t , v , -it t . . r - - : .. . .1 uraenii-iYiuisas Dili, uinerences ui uuuuuu viiaicu as to"wnnaridAotothe people of a Territory could prohibit Slavery. Some believed with Mr. Douglas, that a Territorial Legislature could do so. Others contended that the Territorial .Legislature would have no such power.., That Congress having no such power, could not' delegate tliat which it had not to its creature, a Territorial Legislature. That the Territories were the common property of all the States, held in trust for them by their agent, the Federal Government, and that the citizens of all the States had a right to emigrate thereto with their property, (whether negroes or spinning jennies,) and that tlie only powers of a Territorial Govern ment were, not to establish or distroy rights, but to protect all who should go there, in whatever rights they possessed, and that it was only when they should be authorized to organize a State Govern ment, and should assemble to form a -Constitution that- they would have tho power to prohib it property in Slaves. This difference, however, was not regarded as practical for the time, for the reason that it was a question for judicial construc tion ; while all could agree in giving to the Territo ries government, and the exercise of all rights there under consistent xc'Uh the constitution leaving what those rights were to be determined bv the Courts, as the disputed points should arise. This fact was well un-' derstood, admitted and explained on all hands dur in!? the pendencv of the Nebraska-Kansas bill. Mr, Douclas states it in clear and concise terms two years after in the debate in the Senate, July, I85G, He then said : "Mv opinion with reirard to the nucstion (as to whether a Territorial Legislature could prohibit slavery,) which my colleague is trying to raise here, has been well known to the Senate for years. He tried the other day, as those associated with him Used to do, two years ago and last year, to ascertain wnat were my opinions on mis pumi m uie .-euras-ka bill : J told him it teas a judicial question. " My answer then was and now is, that if ihe Constitution carries slavery there, let it AND NO POWER ON EARTH CAN TAKE IT AWAY ; but if the Constitution does not cary it there, no power but the people can carrv it there ; whatever may would not have anected my vote lor or against tlie Nebraska bilL I should have supported t it just as readily if I thought the decision would be one way as the other. He' will also find tliat I stated I would not discuss the legal question, for by the bill ice re fared it to ihe Courts." From this statement of the condition' of the ques tion it will be seen how myself and others could vote for you. notwithstanding our differences of opinion as to how the Courts would decide this Question when brought before them. And wc little supposed that you would understand usj as concurring with you upon wis ueierrea question, merely Because wo continued to give you our confidence and support. in 164a .Mr. tsuclianan wrote his bandtord letter, re pudiating the doctrine of "Squatter Sovereignty," called by you " Popular Sovereignty" In the face of that letter you entered zealously into bis support lor tne fresidency lnJBoC.and yet with what justici could l assert iroin that jact that you were en dorsing his opinions upon this then unsettled ques tion I y The same kind of '"popular sovereignty" and "non-intervention" that was laid down in the Clay ton Compromise of '48. m the Territorial bills for New Mexico and Utah in '50. and in the act organ izing governments for Nebraska and Kansas in '51 was asserted in our platform at Cincinnati, and re asserted again by the Baltimore Convention that nominated Breckinridge and Lane, with a dis tinct repudiation of the construction that had been placed upon it by Mr. Douglas, and an equally clear affirmance of the decision of the Supreme Court. Now what has brought about this change? Why is it that you and me, equally honest for I know you too well to question your sincerity cannot act together in the future, as we have done in the past? In my opinion there is no valid reason. For once in your life I fear you have permitted a mere obsti nacy of opinion and a mistaken notion of consisten cy to carry you too far. One false step always leads to others, unless speedily retraced, until the unfor tunate adventurer most frequently finds himself in the wilderness and quagmires of inextricable ab surdities. There is no reson why you and me should not continue side by side in the good fight for that Democracy which we both believe is the essential support of Republican institutions; for after all that you have said the only real difference between us on this Territorial question is: has Suprem Court decided this question against you and against Gen, Cass, Daniel S. Dickinson and others, who con curred in your construction? 1 think it has. Gen. Cass and Mr. Dickinson admit that it has, and yield obedience to that decision,- and are earnestly supportingBreckinridge and Lane. You think the Uourt has not decided the question but I know you too well to suppose for a moment that you will not readily acquiesce in that decision whenever you are satisfied that it has been made let that decision be what it may. Knowing you to be honest in these convictions, then, and that they were not encouraged by any feeling unfriendly to slavery or to the rights of your own section, I would not question your Democracy or your right to putiic confidence- for this difference as to what has been decided. You well know that the great body of the Democracy of Tennessee are in a hand to hand strug gle with their old enemy, the federal Opposition, whom you have characterised to me as a "guer illa party," encouraging the Black Republicans You further know that Mr. Douglas is not in fact a party to tho Presidential race in Tennessee, and that the only possible effect which your support of mm can have will oe to increase tne cuances ot giving the State to Mr. Bell. But you say in your let ter that vou must do this in order to adhere to the principle of ''popular sovereignty," the right of a Territorial Legislature to prohibit slavery. In this you are not consistent, in my judgment, from the fact that not a month before the meeting of the Charleston Convention you stood side by side with me declaring as your preference, if we went North for a candidate, for Joseph Lane, of Oregon, whom you said from personal, observation you knew to be honest and competent. And yet Joseph Lane, who but a few months ago, you preferred for President over any other Northern man, stood then as now op posed to vour construction ot "popular sovereign ty," having declared in the House, of which you and he were members, ma speech delivered ilarch it 1858. that "Congress cannot interfere with the subject of slavery ; and the people living under a Territorial government cannot do, under an organic law framed by Congress, that which Congress itself could notdc. It.(slavery) does nominally exist, and must always exist, in the Territories, until they come to lorm their State governments, and then it is their right to regu late the matter as they please. I appeal to gentle men, then, Northern men and Southern men, to main tain and protect the rights guaranteed by the Con stitution.' This speech was made in favor of the proposition to admit Kansas under the Lecompton Constitution, in opposition to the efforts of Mr. Douglas, Mr. Bell and the Black -Republicans. You were standing with Gen. Lane on that question. If a few weeks before the meeting of the Charleston Convention you preferred Gen. Lane, who had expressed such sentiments in the House of which you were a mem ber, why can you not support John L. lireckmridge whose only offense is that of holding the samesenti ments in'a conteit in Tennessee where the only ef fect of withholding your vote will be to increase the chances ot itell? But there arc other and stronger reasons why you should reconsider your declared purpose. AVhat respect can you have for the professions of Stephen A. Douglas, or of his support of your favorite doc trine of "non-intervention J'- Who knows better than vou do that he was the first to lead the Black Republican cohorts in an unholy crusade upon that doctrine, trampling under foot the Lecompton Con stitution, arrogating to himselt ttie right as a Sena tor to go behind the regular proceedings and say what was and what was not the will of the pecplcof Kansas intervening to have a Constitution fraiffed according to 7iij wishes and aiding in defeating the admission of Kansas into the Union, at a time when yon. by your vote, givcp ppder oath, said she was entitled to admission. I remember well the incidents of that day of treachery. I chanced to be in Washington. Great alarm and anxiety was manifested on the part of Democratic members of Congress in fact, on the part of all national men on account of the threat ened division in our ranks, which Mr. Douglas was about to occasion on this question, arising Irom his bitter personal dislike to the President. A feeling of depression weighed heavily upon the hearts of ali of you. In conformity with the usages of our party, a caucus meeting was called to device some means for preserving the harmony and unity of the party. Through the kindness of one of tho Tennes see members, 1 was secured admission as a specta tor to tliat caucus. You will remember the deep and solemn leeling which seemed to pervade that- meeting, n conienjpiaiion ot the threatened deser tion ff Mr. Douglas and "his follower?, and of the evils which such an accession to' the Blapk Repub licans would bring with iL LecqtpptQii apd anti Lecompion Bcmocrats came to that family meeting, with the anxious hope of devising some compromise that would preserve the harmony and strength of the party. But Mr. Douglas did not come he sought no compromise, he asked no peace, he de sired no harmony; and the next morning upon the Avenue he was found denouncing, in undignified terms, those whom lie thought lie had a right to com mand, but who liad dared to go into that Democratic caucus and seek for harmony and peace. I am sat isfied that you will bear witness to the truth of these assertions, however widely wo may differ in our present line of policy. Mr. Douglas immediately plentiSed himself and his followers with the Black Republicans on that question, and some whom he led off into their ranks stand there to this day. aiis associations in a great measure changed. He wa closeted witji Seward, jvifh "Greeley, with Colfax, with Blair & Co. Seward gave wav. and lie became their leader fgr the time. lie and they were successful, and John Brownisnj tritfmphr cd in Kansas. It is a matter of public history, which no one wiB. deny, that, fpr this good service, a'por tion, of the leaders of the Black Republicans insist ed that he should ba re-elected to the Senate frpm Illinois. You will remember that a respectable cor respondent from Washmgtion lo tlie BlackRcpublican organ at Chicago, the journal, had stated that Mr. Douglas made great boast to him of " what be had done in tlie party to stop the progress of slavery and to advance freedom, and of what he proposed doing m the luture to destroy the intentions ol the slave power" that he repeated many things to convince his Black'Republican associates " tliat he was ear nestly and honestly on the side of tho North against the slave po wer, and should be found fighting .in the ranks of.jth'e greatNbrthern partyin 1SC0'' and that ; when enquired oflf'he knew where the course he was then pursuing would lead him, he replied : "I do, and I have checked all my baggage and taken through ticket" that "this character of convcr- saucn, so irequenuy employed oy ar. uougias with those-with whom he talked, made the deepest impression upon their minds, enlisted them in his peiiaif, and fjianged in almost every instance, their opinion.ot toe man." l ou remember the statement of Blair at that timo'the Black Republican mem ber of Congress from St. Louis to the effect that the letter which he wrote to Brown, the editor of. thejiiacs Uepubiican organ ot St iiouis, urging mm to desist from hi3 attack on Douglas, on the ground . , I .-1 . . I I -. 1 .1 ... that Douglas wopld ultimately be with them, was vrrfttin ftt lii. DoiHrlaa' rpnnpst flint thft interview sought by Mr., Douglas with Blair was far.-this.pur- posc, as was testified to by Mr. Colfax, through ;whoro the interview was asked. You will also re member the statement of Judge Kellog in the House, and a more recent statement of Senator Trum bull, to the effect that at the time, of the attempted passage of the Lecompton lonstitu tion through Congress,. "Mr. Douglas called on Mr. Covode, a. Republican member of Congress from Pennsylvania, and requested him to go to Senator Trumbull and get him to agree that he, Mr. Doug las, should bo returned to the Senate by the Repub licans of Illinois, and in consideration thereof he would fight the Republican battles in 18SQ." 1 sup pose you have seen a report of a recent speech of Anson Burlingamc. (the same that eulogized Mfc Bell iu tho House of which you -were a member, for his vote against KaDsas,) delivered recently at Ban gor, Maine, in which, appealing to theifriehds of Mr. Douglas to support Lincoln, hgsays: "Colfax, lilair and myseii nave nau irequeui priviuu inter views with Mr. Douglas in mVown.liousc. On those occasions Mr. Douglas freely made use of expres sions of the deepest indignation against Southern dictation." For these additional reasons, I must again insist that there is no consistency in your sup port of. Mr. Douglas. Again : the chief difficulty with you is our asser tion of the doctrine off Federal protection to Our rights in the Territories. How came tills feature in our platform ? Who suggested the necessity which occasioned it ? You should remember that it comes in answer to tlie newf and novel doctrine of Mr. Douglas, conceived and promulgated by him for the first time in Ms canvass with Lincoln in Illinois, of "unfriendly legislation. ' The Supreme Court had then but recentlyrtlelivered the "Dred ScOtt" de cision, in which his theory of " Squatter Sover eignty " was thought to have been overthrown, and it was in view of this state of facts, and in answer to Mr. Lincoln, that he said: "It matters not what way the Supreme Court may hereafter de cide as to the abstract question whether slavery may or may not go into a Territory under the Constitution," tho people have- the lawful means to introduce it or exclude it as they please, forthe reason that slavery cannot exist a day ior an hour anywhere, unless it is supported bv local police regulations. Those police regulations can only be established by the local Le IcgftlaTure; and if the people arc opposed to slavery, theyvill elect representatives to that body who will, by UNFRIENDLY LEGISLATION, effectually prevent the introduction of it in their midst." This ,was a higher-lawism but little better than the highcr 'lawism of Mr. Seward, and I am sure you do not en dorse it; and yet the position you occupy has that appearance. What matters it with him if the Su preme Court has decided against his favorite theory of "Squatter Sovereignty?" Ho would teach the people to disregard the Courts. When might makes right, the Constitution becomes a myth We had boasted throughout the country that there was a great conservative principle in the Kansas bill, which, if endorsed and sustained by the people.- would settle tins question upon just and honorable terms ; which principle was to organize the Terri tories upon a plan that would secure to the free States and the slave States every right to which they were respectively entitled under the Constitu tion; those rights to be determined by the Courts, and when determined to be acquiesced in by all parties. Mr. Douglas violated his plighted faith, and became cliampion of "unfriendly legislation." His in timate relation to the Kansas bill, when that measure was pending before Congress and the country, gave great importance to his new doctrine; and the na tional Democracy throughout the country were called upon to know what they had to say to it. The Democracy of Tennessee, when they assembled in Convention the following March. 185'J. adopted in their platform the following fourth resolution as their response : "That we are satisfied with tho' views announced by the Supreme Court of the United States in the celebrated case of Dred Scott on the rights of slave holders andjthe status of slavery in the Territories, and are willing to abide by the principles announc ed in that decision. Slavery and the rights of slave holders are protected by the Constitution of the Uni ted State, and by an appeal to the action of the judi cial tribunals ol tha Union, until the formation of a Constitution by the people of a Territory, and then the State must decide for itself on that as well as other legitimate subjects of government." " Upon the committee who drafted this resolution was Geo. Wi Bridges,' Douglas elector for the third district ; L. IL Cardwcll, Douglas Elector for the fourth district ; and J. .Knox Walker and B. H. Wil liamson, proniiment supporters of Mr. Douglas from the 10th district. Everywhere throughout the coun try this doctrine ot Mr. Douglas was repudiated, ex cept by his followers in a few Black Republican States, and the principle declared that against such "unfriendly legislation," in disregard of the Consti tution and the decision of the Supremo Court, it would be the duty of the r edcral Irovernment to furnish protection, whenever necesary. Prepara tory to the meeting ot our .national Convention, when the Democracy of Tennessee had assembled in Nashville to appoint delegates thereto, and when you were selected,in compliment to your faithf ul pub lic services, to preside over tneir deliberations, they again resolved: "That the Federal Government has no power to interfere with slavery in the States, or to introduce into or exclude it from the Territories, and no duty to perform in relation thereto, but to protect, the rights of the owner from .wron?, and to restore fugitives from labor ; these duties it cannot with hold without' violation of the Uonstitution." Again when assembled in Convention atCharleston, a majority of the committee on resolutions, repre senting every slave State and two free States, and reflecting the views of every Democratic State but one, reported the following : Resolved, Tliat the platform adopted by the Dem ocratic party at Cincinnati be affirmed, with the fol lowing explantory resolutions First, That the government of a Territory organ ized by an act of Congress is provisional and tempo rary, and during its existence all citizens of the United States have an equal right to settle with their property in the Territory, without their rights, cither of person or property, being destroyed 'or im paired by Congressional or Territorial legislation. Second, That it is the duty of the Federal govern ment, in all its departments, to protect, when neces sary, the rights of persons andfpropcrty in the Ter ritories, anu wiiererer eise its uimsuiuuun.il authority extends. . Third, That when the settleis in a Territory have an adequate population to form a State Consti tution, the right of sovereignty commences, and be ing consummated by admission into the Union, they stand on an equal looting with the people ot other states, and the 6tate thus organized ought to be ad mitted into the Federal Union, whether its Constitu tion prohibits or recognizes the institution of slave ry- These were but in response to the new doctrine of "unfriendly legislation' or higher-lawism. origi nated and put on foot by Mr. Douglas with the view of avoiding the decision of the Court, and defeating the just rights of the South, and were in strict con sonance with the action of the two previous Demo cratic Conventions in your own State, over one of weich you presided, and yet you charge that "they are in direct conflict and antagonism with the great Democratic principles as declared in the Cincinnati platform, and an opening ot the slavery question with all the agitations incident thereto." fetrange and astonishing hallucination, showing(how perverse and unreliable are the best minds when once led into error, and then excited by an over-anxious de sire to appear consistent! But. sir. there are still more important reasons than any I have yet assigned, why you should not support Mr. Douglas. The leading feature of your liwtnrv as a nublic man. has been open and undis- e-nised hostility to corrupt men and corrupt prac tices, and to every species of extravagance in pub lic affairs. This has been your specialty You have a reputation in this respect second to no man in the Union. It has done more to secure you the confi dence of your former constituents thaueverything else in your history, isy your suppuzi ui .ur.uuug l.c vmi urn abandoning all this. Y'ou yourself have characterized him to me as a man whose adminis tration would be unsafe to the country. Ydu have deprecated his acts in connection with questions ot nuhlic expenditure as reckless and extravagant. You have ?poken of his surroundings in the event of his elevation to the Presidency, as of a most ob- ;nnnhin anil nernicious cnaruuiei-. luur Amiiinritv -with the lobbv influences about Wash ington, enabled you to speait uuyiseuiy. mum nn lmnnst man and meant what you said; nor is it J . . ; . ..js-.:.ii v. your practice to lalK aooui sucii mings uiiuur we bush; thcreiore, a ieei maw mc nuur ; niimitncrtn these facts, by way of showing that it is you and not your old friends and former con u:,ont wlm ars deviating from" the beaten nath of consistency.

It will not do to answer this by Showing that the best men in the Government have been imposed upon by such followers. These arc exceptions, while in the case of Mr. Douglas you know that such associations an such v influences constitute the general rule, iou farther know that there is nothing so wanting with all parties as an elevation of tone and patriotism among its public men, and that just in the propor tion that tilts fails us will liberty itself decline. How then, with your knowledge of tho man, can you support Stephen A. Douglas? Sir, charity compells mi to attribute it to that infirmity-obstinacy and a false notion of consistency which have so often marred thebeauty of the lives of public men, precip itating them from one folly to another, until the nrst and the latter parts of their lives have become so inharmonious and contradictory as to confound the understanding-of plain'thinking people, , and make them mistrustthe virtue and integrity of all public mCn"-: .i... nublic man in the State has leaned farther towards the doctrine of Free Trade than yourself. Y'ou have taught your old constituents that the doctrine of Tariff Protection was a Federal policy intended to enrich the few at the expense of the many to rob' the toiling million for the benefit of Capital that it was unjust and oppressive, and at war with the genius of our institutions. Stephen A. Douglas, so long, as he stood in favor with his party, professed the same doctiine. From the time he en tered Congress (tho Housp) in Dec. 1843, up to the t,n nlmnilnned his party and joined the aboli- litionists on the lecompton question, hc-opposeil the Federal ppiicf, lie voted with tlje South Carolina Free Tradcrs'for Rhctfs motion for the repeal of the Tariff of '42. He vqtoo.wiin meiii iur tne ir- iff of '48. All the projects kfor admitting rauroau iron free rof kduty were sustainod by his vote. On tho 1st of Starch. 1855. a proposal to engraft a now Tariff oni tho General Appropritipn bill being under, consideration, Mr Douglas said : i"I am for reducing the Tariff t a strict revenue standard. JJAM a Jb bee JLRADK man to the iwjst ex and at the same time I collect revenue enough to defray the expenses of the Government. In other words, I -am for no other kind of a Tariff than a revenue Tariff." See Globe. , Here was a principle' enunciat&a not a policy and principles never change. You" arid Iare still'stacd- . ing uporithat principle- The Democratic party, fol lowing thclead.of Breckinridge and Lane, are still 'standing Tlponitf but does Mr. Douglas stand 'twere? Since his desertion of the Democratic party on the Le compton question, and sines it has occurred to him that the soutnern atates were not uicciy to lavor ms ' aspirations for the Presidency, he has been shifting . . njnnnU.n,,n.tl... In Mr. Hunter's motion to postpone the Tariff bill of the last session ho did not vote, waiting doubtless to see more clearly on which side of the fence he should fall. His present position as the candidate of a por tion of the Northern Democracy-has determined that.question,- and In his recent roving 'pilgrinia-gc as the stump candidate for tho Presidency, he has cone into Pennsylvania, and at the capital of the' State made a speech, which is reported by the Asso ciated tress as iouows : "Mr. Douglas commenced his speech by a glowing; eulogy of Pennsylvania, as an empire within herselK She as a State had a great interest in the Union. Her interests require tho fostering hand of the Government; she had not received the support from the National-Government that she was entitled to. SHenad the whole Union for a market, for her min eral wealth was inexhaustible, and worth more than mines of gold. Ho pitched generally into Congress and the General Government, for the past few years. He denounced the Government for paralyzing the interests of Pennsylvania for several years. The Government had failed to perform the functions for which it was created. The system of government must be changed, or disasters would occur, Either it tended to reduce the expenditures or increase tho revenues. The only remedy is a proper tariff. It was proposed in Congress, but was overslaughed by the interminable negro question. He went into an argument defensive of the protective policy, especi ally as regards l'ennsyivania's interest; but the question will never be settled until the negro ques tion is thrown out and repudiated." Now, sir. what can you as an honest man, think of such charlatanism as that! If he is honest in the the views which he has expressed to the people of' Pennsylvania, then ho has changed his position and is no longer with you and mo upon a questionwhich you have heretofore regarded as more vital and practical than the abstract question of where the sovereignty of a Territorial government commences, and which you have always declared a willingness to leave to the decision of .the Courts. If he is not honest, then he is unworthy of your support, what ever his real position may be. It is seldom that we havt a candidate for tho Presidency whose antecedents and present position correspond with our own views in every particu lar, but I must insist that no man in the Democratic party has pursued a course so much at variance with your own -professions and practices as Mr. Douglas. Not one. He has been at one extreme end of the party while you have been at tho other; and I am happy to say that your extreme has been upon the right side in the main, while his has been as uniformly on the wrong side. There is now but one step between him and Mr. Bell, as is daily being rendered manifest throughout tho State. Those who adhere to Mr. Douglas, under existing circumstances, and thus give half-way support to our Federal op ponents, are more likely, as in lS3G,to continue their course and become thoroughly identified 'witli the Opposition in all future struggles, than they are to retrace their steps and take their old position in the Democratic party again. I cannot believe that you anticipate any such result, and yet with your expe rience and enlightened judgment you can but tee that such will be the 'tendency of all who follow your present example. Even admitting your premises to be correct, (a laid down in your letter, your conclusions, I think, are unwarranted. You acknowledge that your only hope for the preservation of our republican form of government rests with the Democratic party. I it not your duty, then, to cling to that party and labor to correct its errors, rather than withdraw from it and thereby forfeit your position and influ ence? I know you. will say that ifi supporting Mr. Douglas you are not abandoning the party, and yet 1 am sure you will have the candor to admit that he is not a party really to the race in Tennessee, except for those who desire to throw away their votes and thereby increase the chances of Mr. Iwll, without taking the responsibility of voting directly for him. Y'ou and I have voted for Democrats in past contests who were not our choice and with whom wc did not concur in everything. And we did so from patriotic motives. We did so because we believed it better to hold together and preserve our influence with the only party that, in our judg ments, could save the Government, than to contri bute, directly or indirectly, to the success of what you termed the "Guerilla Opposition," the "canvass economy'' party, who if they liave any fixed princi ples of Government, they arc federal principles and subversive, as we believe, of the rights and inter ests of the people, and of Kcpublican institutions, Why should we not do so again 7 . Excuse the length of this epistle. I could have said much more, but could not say less. It has been prompted by the kindest feelings towards you, and to promote principles which I am sure wc hold in common. If anything that I have written shall prove painful to you, you may be sure that the occasion which has called it forth is equally painful to me. Y'ou have liad no friend among your lormer constituents who has esteemed you.more highly or supported you more cordially than my self. Lam saddened, therefore, to think that you sanction any division in the ranks of your old party in Tennessee, and can but still indulge some hope that you will think better of the matter, and once more beat the re viello for a union of our forces. With an earnest desire for the preservation of Re publican principles as embodied in our Federal Constitution, which secures justice and equality to me people and to the States and thereby the per petuation of the Union, and without which the Union would not be worth preserving; and with the belief that all these depend, in a great measure, upon the luture success of the Democratic party that old party which has long honored you, and in the service of which you have spent your best days. 1 subscribe myself, one of your mends and " .

Colyar is an able lawyer, and the people felt sorry to see him advo cating the sinking cause of the Opposition party. Miller Tdrney, the Attorney General of this dis trict, replied to Col. Colyar in a speech of the same length, in which he most nobly vindicated the time honored principles f tlie Democracy, held up the record of Breckinridge and Lane as being pure and not contaminated and polluted with. A-Volilitionism, and challenged Col. Colyar to point out a single principle in their record that was inconsistent with the rights of every State, or that favored a dissolu tion of the Union.
