whom wo venerate, ami w!i I a
knowledge as my lender—Henry Clay.
(Immense mid long continued :i|
]ilause.] I saw him laboring wuh that
wise old man to iibhohl the cause of
the Union, the enforcement of the laws
and the constitution. Allow me to
nay that I was at that lime the repre
sentative from his district in the State
of Kentucky, from the Ashland dis
trict,and had an opportunity of witnes
sing his exertions, the deep anxiety,
the painful solicitude which he felt
when those measures were before
the country. Whether right or wrong
he believed in his heart that the conn
try was in danger, and that it was
necessary for all men of all parties,
and without any referenco to past
party feeling, to rally together for the
purpose of saving the constitution, and
of restraining that social agititation
which threatened to destroy it. I
saw him then, bowed down, scarcely
able to walk to the Capitol, aged,
wornont, 1 saw him when he would
rise in his place and throw ot his cloak
stand erect bclorc that august tribunal
and look as though- the hand of time
had not been laid upon him at all. It
was then the "higher law" was pro
claimed there was an irrepressible
•bout. He arose in the Senate chamber
and in those tones which no man co'd
hear unmoved, exclaimed, "I have
heard a higher law proclaimed in this
Assembly. Yes, sir," ho continued,
turning to the President ot the Senate,
there is a higher law but who gave
that gentlemen (Seward) the authority
to proclaim it Let me see your
credentials. Higher law! higher "law!
higher than what? If ho means to
say that it is higher than the consti
tution of the United States, lie is a
traitor in his heart.' (Immense ap
plause and repeated rounds of cheers.)
lie saw the danger of sectional agita
tation and when he saw the fierce
agitation that was excited, and the
excitement between thedifferent States
of the Union, I heard him disclaim
forever all party feeling, and declare
that he was ready to affiliate with any
man who would co-operate with him
to preserve the Union. He was much
dissatisfied with the state of affairs at
that time and he said to me "I intend
1o write a note to Mr. Richie, to whom
I have not spoken for twenty years,
and ask his aid and co-operation to
settle these questions that disturb
the country." lie did write that note
Mr. Richie came to him he said,
,:
I
believe the country is in danger. I ask
your assistance. Lot us bury every,
thing, and be to one another as we
were when we played as boys togeth
er." Well, that old man seized him
by the hand, and they did co-operate
together. Among all the great men
who were there lending their weight,
their inrlncnce,their energies and their
talent—either inside or outside of Con
gress—there was none among the
whole host more efficient than Stephen
A. Douglas.
PRENT1CUANA.
We clip the following random shots
from a late number of the Louisville
Journal:
The administration's persecution of
the office holders helps the Douglas
cause. His majesty the King of Da
homey has made preparations to hon
or Dis predecessor King Gezo, by cut
ting the throats of two thousand men
so as to get human blood enough to
float a canoe and we don't know but
Mr- Buchanan is likely to shed official
blood enough to float the little Giant's
canoe.
The Southern Breekinridge party
and the Northern Breckinridge party
are so far apart in their political po
sitions that it takes old Janus eyed
Buchanan himself to look at them
both at the same time.
It seems that Mr. Seibcls, of the
Montgomery Confederacy, broke his
umbrella over the head of a young
Yancey. If he had broken it over the
head of old Yancey, we would have
sent him a new one.
The editor of one of the Breckin
ridge organs boasts that the Opposi
tion party in the South is '-tied hand
and foot." If that's the case, we
guess that he'll witness the raising
of the tied.
A little Disunion editor in Alabam
calls us an Amalckite. A good many
of his brethren are pro' *bly of the
opinion that we are a JIUtite.
An exclamation ot Ancient Pistol
was—"Under which King, Bezonianl
speak or die!" Mr. John C. Breckin
ridge seem to have done both.
Tho Constitution says that **Mr,
Bell hasn't a ghost of a chance."
That's because his chance isn't dead.
Eli Thayer has been thrown over
board by the RebnbKoans of the ninth
Massachusetts district, and- G. F.

Tho Bell, Douglas and Houston
men of Texas have united on a com

E A N SALES.
The people have endeavored by every sac
rifice to pay for their lands. They can neith
er sell their produce to get the means to do
so, nor can they borrow the money for that
purpose and they have therefore concluded
that the land sales ought not to take place
and in the back country through which we
have lately travelled, they boldly say that
if one hundred determined men should delib
erately como to that conclusion in each
Land District it will not take place, It is
currently believed, that the Land Officers, if
temporarily deprived of their books, maps
and plats, would find it difficult to execute
Buchanan's writ of ejectment, by which
hard working men are to bo turned out
their homes, and from their farms.
We hope and desire, and entreat that no
such high handed acts be committed. It
should only be the last resort. They should
sell their oxen, their cows, everything be
fore this thing should be thought of. If the
sales are temporarily postponed, go that the
settlers can have time to secure and pay for
a land warrant much hardship will bo pre
vented. Now they can not get their wheat
threshed or marketed, they cannot leave
their farms without great loss, and tempo
rary delay would be relie'. The- sale by
reason of its extent multiplies the difficul
ties of all. It comprises four timos too large
an extent ef territory, Tho time of the sale,
and the amount of the sale are both object
tionable, and if the settlers could in person
get an audience with Mr. Buchanan and bis
cabinet, we havo no doubt they would se
cure an indefinite postponement of the sales
at once. We fear our Congressmen fail to
represent these things at Washington,
which if they did, would secure such ivpost
ponement. Wo urge our voters to hold these
neglectful Congressmen to the responsibility
and proclaim by their vctcs that they are
unfaithful servants.
W NOT E HONEST
Many Democrats openly say that they
would prefer to see Lincoln elected President
thanBreckenridge, yec all the Republican
newspapers expend more time in praising
Breckenridge than Lincoln. We know Lin
coln has so short a record that little can
beocrat?"
said of him, except he split rails and run a
flat boat. But why in the name of all that's
honost if you can't say anything of Lincoln
do you praise Breckenridge, the candidate
oftlre distmionists and secessionists of the
South? Is it because you love a disunion
ist? We know that the principles of your
party tend to disunion, but we supposed
you were anxious to bcregardert as friendly
:o the Union and hostile' to those extreme
doe'tines, Hereafter, defend vour own1
men and thctr principles and luWBrccken-i

TUB DISCUSSION.
The discussion between Messrs Andrews
& Miller, Presidential Electors upon the
Democratic and Republican tickets was
largely attended, and the best of feeling pre
vailed. We have certainly just reason to
be proud of the gentlemanly conduct of our
citizens, of both parties. The Wide
Awakes, numbering 100, were out with
torches and made a fine appearance, but we
must say, that the Little Giants numbering
75 presented a finer one. The uniform of the
Little Giants is peculiarly adapted to torch
light processions and evening meetings.
The Wide Awakes as they passed the
Little Giants were heartily cheered, and
three cheers for the Little Giants as heartily
returned by the Wide Awakes. The utmost
good fueling characterized the conduct of
the companies toward each other, and we
tender to the several officers and members
of each our thanks for the existence and
preservation of this feeling. The drill of
the companies was commendable to their
officers.
The discussion was free from personalities.
The speech of Mr. Andrews was dignified
eloquent nnd ablo. It was full of sound
sense, and was forcibly delivered. Mr.
Andrews made a lasting and favorable im
pression of which he may woll feel proud
The speech of Mr. Mdier, if it can bo called
a speech, was a string of anecdotes, more
suited for a lot of loafers around a bar
room stove, than a dignified discussion of
grave and important political questions, in a
crisis so full of difficulty and so portentous
of evil as is this one now threatening the
country.
Mr. Miller & a man of ability, and his
capacity would make his fortune in the
place made vacant by tho death of Dan
Rice, yet wo can wish him a God speed,
if he thinks the mode he has adopted the
best to convince the judgement of his
political friends. Ho is evidently a warm
hearted man, and would bo a social star
among the b,hoys. All we say to our citizens
is to ponder well tho facts and arguments
you heard, and decide upon tho grave issues
that seperate the two parties of our State. Is
non-intervention best Is minding ones
own business wisest? If so, vote for
Douglas and tho. people's right to govern
themselves.
A CANDI ADMISSION.
Mr. Miller, who heads the "Old Abe"Compromise
Presidential ticket, made at Bed Wing on
Monday evening the most insulting admis*
sinn that could be made to the Swede and
Norwegian Republicans of this county. Ho
said he wan an active "Know-Nothing" in
Pennsylvania that ho joined that prescript
ive order in tho night, that he took the oath
to proscribe the foreigner both on account
of his birth place and religion what excuse
did Mr. Miller offer for this insult to the
foreign born? That he might defeat Bigler
the Democratic candidate for Governor of
Pennsylvania.
As if confident he was disgraced by the
admission, he added in palliation that since
he took that oath he had violated it by pub
licly voting for catholics and foreigners.—
We simply add that every leading Republi
can was once a leading Know Nothing, and
they were then hypocrites, and professing
what they did not believe or they are nowrespectable
hypocrites, and if they were hypocrites then
it is safe to say they are now. "Can the
leopard change his spots?"
WHAT WAS IiB ABOUT.
Hon. Wm. Windom has lately made the
remarkable admission, that ho knew nothing
of the bill appropriating $200,000 per annum
for the carrying of a mail from St. Paul to
the Pacific that ho never heard of it, and
would like to learn about it. We have
known for more than a year that Mr. Win
dom was a "Know Nothing," but why he
should' know nothing of this important
measure to this State, is to every body a
wonderful surprise. He better said he op
posed it from principle, than to say he nev
er heard of it. What was he about?
This mail route would have been the pre
cursor of tho telegraphic line and of the
Rail Road to the Pacific. No greater ad
vantage could have been secured to our State
than thi3. It would havo proved the entering
wedgo to the development of this vast north
west, and yet Mr. Windom r.ever kn:to of
th* Mil Will the votors of Minnesota en
dorse this neglectful representative.
O N AMOS COGGSWELL
Tho Republican of last week not relishing
the hot shot Mr. Coggswell poured into
them the other evening, falls to abusing him,
Now we submit to every one that heard him
that his speech was most gentlemanly, fair,
nnd candid. If this was not established by
his manner, the past position of Mr. Cogs
well in his party would show that ho was a
man of no ordinary mark. He was Speaker
of the last Republican House of Representa
tives. He has been honored by the party.
He has been pronounced their most honest
prominent man an* this attempt to abuse
him, will react upon tho party. Ho was too
honest to remain among them. Let us ask
every candid Republican this question. "If
Mr. Coggswell was not honest, why should
ho leave a party, in power, of which he was a
prominent leader, and that too,, while he re
sided in a county that is Republican in the
proportion of three Republicans to one Dem-
This question is answer sufficient
to all the abuse of the Republicans, now
heaped on-Mr. Coggswell:
AMUSING.
The Republicans try to hold the-friends of
Douglas responsible for the mal-administra
tion of,fames Buchanan. It is our highest
pride to know that the sin* of the-Adminis
tratior. do not rest upon us.

SENATOR DORCSLAS I S NE W O
During Senator Douglas' speech at Clif
ton Springs, N. Y., on tho 15th, some one
in the audeince asked permission to put
questions to the speaker, to whom Judge
Douglas replied: "No sir I can't admit
any man to interrupt my strain of argument.
No man has a right to interfere with a
crowd of two thousand people for the pur
pose of gratifying his personal vanity."—
The question was subsequently sent to him
in writing and was as follows: "Have the
people in a Territory the right, according to
the doctrine of non-intervention, to abolish
or exclude slavery from tho tetritory while
in a territorial condition?"
To this Mr.Douglas said:
I havo only a word to say in reply. If
that gentleman had read any one of speech
1 have made in the last five years, ho would
have found an unequivocal answer to the
question. I havo made more than fifty
speeches this year in which I have answer
ed that question, and yet political oppo
nents insist on putting it to me for the
purpose of creating doubt on the sudject
1 cannot believe there,is a man in Ameri
ca of ordinary intelligence who does not
know that I hold that the people of a Terri
tory, while a Territory and during its
Territorial condition, may introduce exclude,
abolish or regulate slavery just as they
please. I have said that North and South,
have held that doctrine everywhere. When
I see newspapers and small politicians re
newing the qustion it has excited in my bo
som no other feeling than that of unmitiga
ted eontempt, that they should pretend to
have doubts on tho subject.
Judge Douglas spoke at Syracuse, on
tho 18th of September, to a five acre lot full
of Popular Sovereigns. His speech em
braced some new argument on points not
before touched upon by him. He ex
plained that the difference between Popular
Sovereignty, and Squater Sovereignty, was
that the latter is outside the Constitution
and iu rebellion against the Federal Govern
ment, while Popular Sovereignity is inside
the Constitution and in obedience to the
Federal Government. In answer to a Re
publican he stated that Jefferson was Minis
ter to France when the ordinance of 1787
was adopted, and knew nothing about it
till afterwards, and that Jefferson's plan for
the government of the territories, which
was adopted in 1784, was the fullest recog
nition of the right of Popular Sovereignty.
On tho day following his Syracuse speech,
Mr. Douglas addressed a crowd of about
10,080 people at Rochester. He presented
no new features except on the Missouri
Compromise. He claimed that he had
always supported and upheld the Missouri
so long as tho people of the
free States were willing to abide by it, and
in 1848 had introduced a bill, which was
passed by the Senate, extending the line to
the Pacific. The House rejected that bill.
He claimed that if passed it would have
settled tho slavery agitation forever. He
charged that it had been defeated by tho
union of free soilers and Southern'fire-eaters,
who had then combined against tho Mis
souri Compromise as they are now combined
against Poupular Sovereignity,
E PRINC E O W A E S
The tour of the Prince of- Wales through
Her Majesty's North American Provinces
has fairly closed, His Royal Highness, as has
been announced by telegraph, having reached
Niagara Falls on Friday evening.
The correspondent of the New York Times
gives the following incidents ot tho ball in
honor of the Prince at London, Canada West
Wednesday uight:
Last evening at the ball two of the most'
young men of Buffalo, who were
with ladies, were arrested by tho do
tectives, who imagined them to he pickpock
ets. They wore handcuffed and locked up
in the cell all night, with two prostitutes
and a squaw. In the morning over a hun
dred Americans attended the Court, and
there were strong symptoms of a row.—
Profuse apologies weie tendered, but they
could in no way remedy the misery of the
matter.
Two horses which were special favorites
of the Princejhiwe been, purchased by some
Canadian gentlemen fof $3,000, and will be
sent to England as a present for the Prince.
1 he Prince's suite are about used up, and
heartily wish themselves and their charge
safely home.
A correspondent of tho New York Herald,
writing to that paper from London, C. W.,
under date of September 14, furnishes tho
following incidents and facts connected with
the Princes tour:
This morning it was officially announced
that the Prince had appointed the regiment
of volunteers, commanded by Col. Wiley,
whieh has acted as his guard of honor since
he left for Montreal, to be called the Prince's
Own, and receive a stand of colors from'his
hand.
The firemen gave a ball last evening,
which exceeded in jollity the grand ball at
which the Prince was present. English and
American flags were about equally displayed,
the fireman saying that they were organized
on the American plan and felt half Ameri
canized.
Mr. Brocknrre, the Queen's own cour
ier precedes the Prince in the United Statos
and examines and inspects the hotels, de
ciding at which the Prince is to stay. It is
announced, unofficially, but with somo cer
tainty, that the Prince stays at tho Zimmcr
man Mansion, at Niagara at Dotroit, Rus
sell's Hotel at Chicago, tho Richmond
House at St. Louis, Barnum's, and at Cin
cinnati, Burnett.
The Prince returns by tho way of Indian
apolis, and stays there one day. At Pitts
burgh he stops at tho Monongohcla House.
A GOOD STOUT. SroiTiED.—A cynical indi
vidual, on reading apathetic story in one of
the papers lately noted it in his memoran
dum book as follows:
Somebody whistled. Teacher calls up
big boy on suspicion.
Big boy comes up and holds out his hand,
sullen aadrSavage.
Noble little boy comes minfullv forward,
and says:" "I'm the boy what whistled,.sir,1
at tho same time extending his hand?
Teacher simmers-down, and lets 'em both
off!
(Mem—Noble little boy thought teach
er wouldn't lick him if he told the truth, but
knew bigboy. would lick him if he did'nt.)
ttt A portion of the citizens of Anderson
County, Texas, have petitioned Governor
Aunwm- San, Houston to convene the legislature of
Buchanan Texas iu extra session for the Durm.se of
session,, for the purpose o.
such laws as will prevent, if possi
absoluto famine, and relieve them
pecuniary distress occasioned'by
nprccedented drought of this season.
a
They (th Republicans) have al- fhcuipK
A S A DEFfNElV ISSUE.
They havo a sharply defined issue in
Massachusetts. It is whether John Brown
was right. Il was made by the Black Re
publicans when they nominated their candi
date for Governor Mr. John A. Andrews,
who had said, with referenco to John1
Brown's invasion at Harpers's Ferry: "John
Brown himself wat ril'ht. I sympathise
with the man. I sympathise with the idea*
because I sympathise with and believe in
the eternal right." By nominating Mr.
Andrews, and raising this issue, tho Black
Republicans of Massachusetts have brought
Mr. Garrison and bis party to the support
of their ticket, as we learn from the Liberator,
Mr. Garriso'ns paper as follows:
In this Commonwealth, the nomination by
the. Republican Stato Convention, as its can
didate for Governor, of John A. Andrews, is
a cheering sign of the times, not only be
cause of his exemplary character and great
moral worth, but particularly because he
represents the highest phase of political anti
slavery feeling as yet developed thus show
ing that Massachusetts takes no step back
wards," but is, on the contrary, steadily ad.
vancing in the cause of humanity and free
dom."
If it has been the habit of Massachusett,
to lead the way in,proclaiming the Black Re
publican doctrine, the party elsewhere has
not been slow to follow her. So it will be
in the present instance. Mr. Andrews will
doubtless be elected. Massachusetts will
have proclaimed that "John Brown was right!
and the Black Republican party everywhere
will respond, amen.
AN EXCITING RACE.—Quite' an exciting
face occurred recenty between two newspa
per carriers, whose aim was a monopoly of
the newspaper trade at Richfield Springs,
N. Y., On the 3d inst., it was agreed that
the carrier who reached tho Springs first
that day, should be the regular vender of the
New York papers, of which a hundred or
so are taken there. At the appointed hour
the boys were astraddle their nags at the do
pot, ready to snatch the papers the mo
ment the train arrived. To make the mat
ter sure, they had horses stationed all along
the route, at a distance of two or three
miles apart. Their horses were the fastest
that the country could afford, furnished by
the friends of the parties. When the train
arrived, rhe mails were snatched and away
sped the carriers, their horses straiting every
nerve and muscle to win the race. So great
was the interest manifested in this contest,
that tho housetops were crowded with pee*
pie, cheering tho lads as they spurred over
hill and dale. Tho Mohawk carrier, Mc
Quire, came out ten rods ahead, sold his pa
pers at twenty-five cents each, and recieevd
a purse of thirty dollars. Tho time mado
was thirty-five minutes. The distance thir
teen and a half miles. The boys had nine
horses on the road and ono of them was
severely injured.
