THE LATE ELECTION.
•We have heretofore refrained from mak
ing any comments upon the late election—
and we am glad of it. For judging' from
what our own feelings were, and from what
our Democratic cotemporaries did say, we
should have been too inueh worked. upmrce,
to have done justice to that subject. But
now we have got through swearing about
it and,begantotreat the matter philosophic
ally, we find much cause for consolation.
And first andforemostis it was not thmente
great principle Of popular sovereignty caus
ed our defeat, although there was1 as much
harping as ever upon the eternal nigger we
believe our party has not lost a vote that
.was polled in 1857 on that account but onhot
the contrary has made converts. We lost
many votes in this county, and we suppose
all through the State upon the homestead
question and because of the taxation howl
raised by the Republican.
The homestead question we have good" rea
sontobelieve wiil soon be disposed of finally
and (hattooby'the 'Democratic party: It
feae certainly, all through its history advo
/tatted a jmore liberal policy,,towards the
West than any one of the opposition parties*
«nd we See tie reason why it should change
-Jta«awse.' The. opposition to the home-
Meafl principle was purely sectional—not a
party opposition, and the West must com
mand sufficient respect in Jongreas at the
next sessiontocarry it unless He Represent
atives mske themselves foolishly obstreper
•ousbu the nigger question. ',. soiaul
Asforour Railroad policy, I we believe
lk*C we beat the RapoUicaris on the argu
ment, and that the people will see it gJBqer:
ally when Republicans come to carry out
thai identical policy—at the next scroti.

all their croaking against* us, and the promi

would then be—what it must come 1 to in

and are forced themselves to meet the issue
squarely—instead of dodging behind the
Republican-no-principle "opposition" organ
isation, whenever they are cornered
their influence cannot be counteracted or
or checked but when their principles are
seen and advocated in all their native black
ness, an immediate and annihilating defeat
will be the consequence, and peace and
concord restored to this Union. This is thein
position of the Republican party. A victo
ry is fatal—for its organization embraces two
conflicting elements, and it can't carry oat
a policy that will please both. In the mean
time white the fanatics can preach under its
non-committal colors, instead of their own
black flag—and hurl death and destruction

Speculation is perhaps hardly the proper
term by whichtodesignate the proposal of
John Brown to raise a sumJy comingto un
derstand with some mercantile house(which
has to make iu own profits also)by speculat
ing on the principal Euglish and American
changes forthe rise in cotton-which would as
suredly result from the dimunation ofthe usu
al supply through our projected movements.
peremptorlv refused to acquiesce, and the
subject was aguin mooted to me. But thedis
covery of the: Bqston $87,000. affair in wool
reminds me of John Brown's, cotton scheme
and induces me to guess that he is not the
only New England humanitarian who enter
tains peqiiiior notions of 'speculation.

Indeed, greediness to turn insurrection to

say to the colored people, as I and others

We.give below a brief abstract from
pamphlet on the above question by Reverdy
Johnson. As the attorney against Died
Scott—to which case he devoted a great
deal of attention—and as the most promi
nent and able lawyer in the Union—his
opinion is worthy of attention
We regret that the' limited size of our
paper wfll not permit us to publish any
thing but an abstract of the points in
thethe
case—giving scarcely a taste of his powerful
rtasoning. The Answer of Senator Douglas
to Jutlge Black—the clearest and most con-the
vincing, argnment we. ever read—we were
not able tp publish, for the same reason.—
We trust, however, that some means will
be providedforfurnishing it to every read
ing man in the county.: We would be wil
ling to submit the position of the Demo
cratic jparty np6d that questipn, without
further discussion provided every voter
flris furnished with, .and would study, that
argument, 'it is sufficient ojt itself to estab

The true hunter in point of sagacity and

pluck, united' with, quick perceptions and
profound reasoning powers. This is a

of them in Goodhue: though we will hot
outrage their modesty by giving names. It
is such men that make life worth living, for.
To be with them is a continual feast—both
of love and thought. According to some
modern authorities—and we suppose they
stole the idea, at all events it is good enough
to be old—great characters are developed by
necessities and difficulties of the age so
these admirable qualities are developed amid
wild and exciting scenes of the North
west by a life of trial, disappointment and
hardships—but they are well worth the
price—and the -Northwest will one day owe
