FOR VICE PRESIDENT, EESCI: V JE-3SOII, OF GEORGIA. DEMOCRATIC STATE NOMINATION, FOR GOVERNOR, 1:-.111Y D. YOSTE, OF WESTMORELAND New Advertisements. .Auditors Notice, by A. W. Benedict. al.„ Valuable Property for sale, by M. Strous Hon. Herschel V. Johnson. Below it will be seen that Mr. Fitzpatrick, of Alabama, has declined the nomination of the National Democratic Convention for the office of Vice President, and that Hon. Her schel V. Johnssn, of Georgia, has since been nominated. This gentleman has long pos sessed a national reputation on account of the zeal and energy with which lie has sus tained the Democratic cause in Georgia.— Seven years ago he was. elected Governor of that State, a position which he filled with in finite credit to himself and great benefit to the State. He has since creditably filled a number of important stations. He is one of the ablest statesmen and most active Demo crats in the country. WASHINGTON, June 25.—Governor Fitz patrick having declined the nomination as Vice President, the National Democratic Com mittee have substituted the Hon. Herschel V. Johnson, of Georgia. WASHINGTON, June 25.—The committee appointed to inform the candidates of their nomination, waited on Governor Herschel V. Johnson to-night at the National Hotel. He received them in the large dining room of the hotel, which was crowded with ladies and gentlemen. He accepted the nomination, endorsing the platform in every particular, and declaring that the South would sustain the principles laid down in it. In his opinion the doctrine of non-intervention was a necessity to the preservation of the Union. We are glad that Fitzpatrick did resign.— An abler and better man has been substitu ted. The mere name of Johnson is a tower of strength in the South, and will rally the Democratic cohorts in support of the regular nominees in such numbers, that secession and disunion candidates will hide their heads for shame. TREMENDOUS OUTPOURING OP THE DEMOCRA cr.—Acres of Democrats met in Indepen dence Square, in Philadelphia, on Saturday night last, to ratify the nomination of Doug las and Johnson. Speeches were made from three stands by distinguished patriots from several Southern States, and from New York and Philadelphia. The resolutions are of the right faith. We make room for three : -Resolved, That the regular Democratic National Conven* tion, having, according to the usages of the party, noun Hated for President of the United States, Stephen A. Doug las, of Illinois, and Herschel V. Johnson, of Georgia, for Vice President, it is the duty of all Democrats to main tain, support. and abide by its action. Res9ll , d, That we cannot discover the difference be tween the sectional Black Republican party of the North, and the sectional disunion party of the South, on the pres ent political issues before the people. If Congress can in tervene against slavery it can intervene for slavery, and, in either cm,e, the rights of the people of the Territories are as much usurped and violated as when the British Government attempted to interfere with the freemen of the thirteen colonies. Re.soired, That the Democracy now assembled re-affirm the platform which the State Convention of the Democra cy adopted at Reading, and also those adopted by the Na tional Conventions at Cincinnati, Charleston and Balti more. PUBLIC OPINION.—We give in to-day's Globe, articles from quite a number of our Democratic exchanges, to show with what spirit the nomination of the "Little Giant" has been received. ilre could fill our paper a dozen times with similar enthusiam from the press from all States of the Union. We have entered the campaign to dogood service for our party and the country, and we hope to have a helping hand from all who can en dorse our course. Circulate the Globe—it is only 50 cents for three months, 75 cents for six months, and $l5O for a year—in advance. Every friend of Douglas, as a National Dem ocrat, and 'as the nominee of the National Democratic Convention, should go to work in earnest and fight bravely for a victory, and a brilliant victory will crown our united efforts. I, Nine out of every ten of the Seceders from the Democratic National Convention, were either office-holders themselves or had sons holding: office under Mr. Buchanan.— They either had to leave the Convention or lose the offices. Orders had been issued, and rather than lose the offices, the slaves obeyed. INT GLOBE_, A DEMOCRATIC FAMILY JOURNAL, .DEVOTED TO LOCAL AND GENERAL NEWS, &C. .11Er-None of the Pennsylvania Yancey del egates 'withdrew from the National Conven tion until after Douglas' nomination was made , unanimous. They did not vote yea nor nay. But by their silence acquiesced in the nomination. Then, the first opportunity offering, they sneaked out, and into the Dis union Convention. A more cowardly set we never looked upon. Every true Pennsylva nian felt insulted by their cowardly conduct. We hope never to look upon their likes again. ittr. Two years ago Stephen A. Douglas was a candidate for U. S. Senator in opposi tion to Abe Lincoln. The whole influence of the Administration opposed him then.— Now, the same influence is against him., and yet there are Democrats who think, or pre tend to think, that Buchanan can do no wrong. Such men are fit only to be slaves—they de serve the lash, and sooner or later will receive it. The day will come when " Old Buck " will not have a Democratic friend in the Union. The National Democracy of Lancaster, fired a salute of 100 guns on Thursday after noon, in honor of the nomination of Douglas and. Johnson by the National Democratic Con vention at Baltimore. The cannon used for the demonstration was presented to the De mocracy of Lancaster by Mr. Griffin, for the campaign of Buchanan and Breckinridge in 1850. It was christened " Old Buck." gear.- Our friend Noon, of the Mountaineer, made a brilliant speech from the Gilmore House, Baltimore, td the Disunionists, on Thursday night of Convention week. We were at his back and witnessed the efforts of a big seceder to put him down, but Noon had the floor and kept it until he was through. Noon faced the enemy in their camp, and dampened their powder considerably. The " Democracy " sneer at ABRAM LINCOLN as a " rail splitter."—Rep. paper. No they don't! They only sneer at a set of jackasses who go round in the hot sun with rails on their backs thinking they thereby glorify a man who once followed the reputa ble and honest business of splitting rails. It is not the man who split the rails, but the fools who have suddenly become rail-worship ers, that they sneer at. As WAS EXPECTED.—The Democratic press of the State are almost unanimous for the regular nominees of the Democratic National Convention. Douglas and Johnson will be opposed only by those, and a few others, who "owe labor and service" to the tyrant who now occupies the White house. rgir The Democratic cannons are thunder ing Douglas thunder in every State in the Union. There never was a nomination more enthusiastically received by the Democracy, than that of Douglas, the "Little Giant of the West." .ca'• During our absence two weeks ago, an article appeared in the Globe copied from an exchange, headed, " Another Leaf in Lin coln's Record." The resolution, said to be drawn up by Mr. Lincoln, and passed by a Republican State Convention in '54, "stating the aims of the Republican party to be, among other things, the repeal and abrogation of the Fugitive Slave Law, and the prohibition of the admission of any more slave States," is denied as expressing the sentiments of Mr. Lincoln, and as we shall not knowingly pub lish and adhere to a falsehood upon any can_ didate, we wish it understood that we correct any false impressions the article in question may have made upon the minds of our read ers. 2r. The Breckinridge-Yancey disorgani zers of Philadelphia, under the lead of the Postmaster, Collector and Surveyor of that city, held a ratification meeting on Monday night last. Rule or ruin is their rallying cry. Eer Read Douglas' letter of acceptance.— He is game—of the Jackson blood. What Democrat can refuse to honor him? ger - Hon. Wm. P. Schell, of Bedford, has been nominated for Congress by the Democ racy of Bedford county. ker- F. W. Hughes, Esq., anti-Douglas delegate to the National Convention from Schuylkill county, publishes a card in his county paper, from which we take the fol lowing paragraphs : "At Baltimore I voted for the minority re port upon the contested seats, for reasons that were conclu'sive to my own mind, but which it could serve no good purpose now to discuss. Whether the action of the Convention was right or wrong on this subject, still a decided majority of the original convention remained unaffected either by the new delegates ad mitted or by the withdrawal of others on ac count of such admission. The Convention then remained as the only true National Dem ocratic Convention. I therefore felt it my duty to continue to act with it. Accordingly I participated in the two ballots for the Pres idential candidate, and voted both times for James Guthrie. I also assented to the reso lution declaring the nomination of Stephen A. Douglas to be unanimous. In view, therefore, of the facts that Stephen A. Douglas stands upon the platform of prin ciples which I supported at Charleston, and that he is beyond all suce , ,ssful ground of question, the nominee of the only National Democratic Convention, I have not hesitated as to my duty to give that nomination a cor dial support. Beside, too, in Judge Douglas, the Demo cratic party of the nation will have a stan dard bearer and champion of the principles incorporated in the platform of the Conven tion, for which be has heretofore contended with almost superhuman power, and which affords for him the guarantee that in case of his election to the Presidency, those prin ciples will be faithfully enforced." What the Democratic Press Say. [Front the Hollidaysburg Democratic Standard, a strong Adm instration paper.] TEE BALTIMORE NOMINATIONS.—We to-day place at our mast head the name of Stephen A. Douglas, of Illinois, for President, and that of Benjamin Fitzpatrick, of Alabama, for Vice President, they being the regular nominees of the Baltimore Convention. The Convention ended as we feared it would do. There was a secession of some of the Southern delegates. They came there with but one idea—that of protection to slavery in the ter ritories. To this they determined to adhere, and for this sacrifice everything. They were willing to abide by the will of the majority, providing that will did not conflict with their own wishes. They would have abided by any decision of the Convention, provided there was nothing in it to conflict with their slave code. In this whim they were not sustained, and the result was that they seceded and or ganized a Convention of their own. The re maining delegates then proceeded to nomi nate candidates for President and Vice Pres ident, and on the third ballot nominated Mr. Douglas for President, and on the first ballot Mr. Fitzpatrick for Vice President. We have no hesitation in fully indorsing these nominations. They were made by the regular convention, by a vote of two-thirds of the delegates present, and afterwards were made unanimous—they therefore received more than two-thirds of the whole number of delegates, and that was all that was required had all the members of the Convention been present. We therefore regard Mr. Douglas as the regularly nominated candidate of the party, and as such we shall yield him a hear ty support. • [From the Doylestown Democrat, the organ of the Democ racy of Backs county. THE BALTIMORE CONVENTION.—We place at the head of our columns this week, the names of the nominees of the National Democratic 4:- Convention. The history of this Convention is of the most remarkable character. At Charleston, a small minority set at defiance the action of a large majority of the delegates • and because the time-honored principles of the party were not basely surrendered, they seceded from the Convention, and organized a hostile body.— Notwithstanding they declared they could no longer remain connected with the Convention with honor, they came to Baltimore for re-ad mission. They refused to be bound by any pledges to support the nominee, arid would recognize no obligations to abide by the deci sion of the majority. They showed them selves void of faith and honor and were deter mined to rule or ruin. The salvation of the Democratic party was nothing to them, but they were determined to carry out their un holy purposes even at the hazard of its exis tence. The delegates who seceded at Balti more did so because all the seceders from Charleston, were not re-admitted to the Con vention, and that in face of their refusal to be governed by its action. The leader of this movement, Mr. Yancey, of Alabama, is in fa vor of a dissolution of the Union, and be knows that the stepping stone to this is the destruc tion of the Democratic party. The Convention was more largely attended than any previous one, and the excitement was intense. The enemies of Mr. Douglas. in the face of the well-demonstrated fact that he is the choice of the Democratic party, made the most stupendous efforts to prevent his nomination. Those who were foremost in the attempt to defeat the will of the people were the paid emissaries of the Federal Gov ernment, and old federalists who lately dame into the party whose warfare upon him was of the most bitter kind. But the masses were there to take care of their idol, and see that justice was done him. His friends were not not intimidated by threats, and the bug-bear of a dissolution of the Union made no impres sion upon them. They were ready to yield at all times to the majority, but were not wil ling to receive the dictation of a small, disor ganizing minority. The northern Democra cy showed their pluck and have covered them selves with honor. Of our nominees but little need be said.— Nearly every man, woman and child in the Union, knows Stephen A. Douglas, the most brilliant and able statesman of our country. He presents an unsullied record of remarka ble consistency, and he has a personal integ rity that cannot be called in question. He has fought numerous battles upon the side of popular rights, and not one against them.— He is enshrined in the hearts of the people, and they will bear him in triumph to the Presidential chair. [From the Harrisburg State Sentinel DOUGLAS, FOSTER, AND VICTORY 1--TUE COUNTRY SAFE.—We have the gratification of announcing to our friends the nomination of STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS by the Baltimore Convention. This pleasing intelligence will be hailed throughout the length and breadth of the land with wild shouts of joy by the booming of cannon—the kindling of bon-fires —the ringing of bells and all manner of en thusiastic demonstration. This glorious event has sent a thrill of joy to the hearts of millions of patriots. Let us solemnly rejoice and thank God for the salva tion of this, our glorious Union ! Of the election of Douglas, not even the shadow of a doubt can cloud the mind of an intelligent man. His election has been fore ordained, and will be sanctified by the smiles and favors of GOD himself ! Stephen A. Douglas will carry every South ern State, excepting perhaps South Carolina ; he will carry New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Illinois and Indiana, certain, and will have the " inside track" in New Hampshire, Connecticut, lowa, Minnesota and Wisconsin, and will have an even chance for Ohio 1 The Disunionists may " froth and fret" to their heart's content, they are " played out," and can do no harm. The People are for Douglas —the People will elect him. Democrats of Pennsylvania I gird up your loins for the fight Unfurl the good old flag of the party, and when the bugle blast is sounded in your ears, shout our battle cry— " DOUGLAS, FOSTER AND VICTORY !" [From the Chumbersbur,g Valley Spirit, opposed to -Doug las up to the day of his uomivation.] TnE NOMINATIONS.—The action of the Con vention has not disappointed any one. From the course pursued at Charleston it was evi dent that the same men would enact the same scenes over again at Baltimore. A portion would stick by the Convention 'till the mo ment of balloting, and then, when they found their disorganizing efforts too puny to tram ple the wishes of the masses of the party un der feet, they would withdraw and present a ticket with a view to stab deeper at the vitals of the party by an attempt to defeat the reg ularly nominated candidate of the Convention. This they have accompliShed, but it is all that they will accomplish. The Democratic party can not--must not—be divided in this or any other contest; and woe to the men who will attempt it. We cannot see the wisdom or glory of suffering a defeat with two candidates in the field, when victory with one is certain. Those who will lend their support to an irreg ular nomination at this time can have no oth er object in view than the breaking up of the party altogether. Such a calarnity to the whole nomination can only be averted by ex tending a faithful and undivided support to the candidates regularly nominated by the Democratic National Convention. The ticket that we this day place at the head of our col umns received the support of the representa tives of the party who stuck by our National Convention—remained in it at Charleston and held their seats at Baltimore by an unbroken and uninterrupted claim. Their decision we are bound to respect and can know no other. Love of party—love of country, and fidelity. to every recognized usage .of the Democratic organization, sacredly demands for this nom ination our hearty support. We honestly be lieve that in the end all the jealousies, heart burnings and antagonisms that now exist will be healed, and that the sober, good sense of the party will impel every man in the ranks to unite harmoniously and with enthusiasm on our ticket and carry it forward to victory. We have not the space to say much in re spect to our candidates in this issue of our paper, nor is it required—the name and fame of STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS are household words over the land. [From the Carlisle Democrat.] That Stephen -A. Douglas is the man for the times must he evident to all. No other man, at this time, possesses to so great an extent the elements of popularity as does he. His bold, able, and fearless conduct in the U. S. Senate will attract to his standard the Democratic hosts of the country, despite the factious opposition of a few hot-headed poli ticians, who, conscious that they will be un able to mould him to suit their selfish and sectional views, have so fiercely endeavored to defeat him. The people demanded his nomination, and right well have the delegates to the convention responded to the demand. We congratulate the Democracy upon the nom ination of STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS. Let every Democrat now go to work, and labor from now until the Presidential election and a triumphant victory is sure to follow. [From the Blairsville Record.] " It does not require the penetration of Philosopher or sage, to see that the hand of a wise and beneficient Providence controls the destinies and prepares the future of this great nation. The voice of the people' is the voice qf God—in tones of thunder they cry for DOUGLAS ! DOUGLAS I ! and Popular Sovereignty ! the billows of the Atlantic and the surging swells of the far away Pacific re verberate the battle cry; they have rebuked the plotters, the schemers, the demagogues, the depraved politicians, who seek personal aggrandizement, in a way not to be misun derstood or forgotten; it was time—the peo ple had too long been indifferent to, and care less of their rights ; and it was time to hoist the great Gonfalon—the banner which struck terror to the souls of the Roman Aristocrats of the middle ages, and to teach their would be-masters an enduring lesson. Our oppo nents need not be too hasty in rejoicing at the Baltimore confusion—it would not re dound a particle to their benefit. The National Democratic party has ener gy enough left to rout them nest Fall— " horse, fl , ot and dragoons "—with truth and justice as our cardinal principles, we are not dismayed, we tremble not ; a night of gloom and chaos preceded a glorious morning of light and order at the creation ; and thus it will be now, the fractions will be cemented together and unite the party into one undivi ded whole. I'he God of Israel, the Arbiter and Judge, will watch over us, the Ark will be borne upon the stormy waters to a place of safety. With calm, unshaken nerves, we fling our gallant banner to the breeze with the names of DOUGLAS and 'JOHNSON em blazoned on its folds; no true Democrat will refuse to support the ticket; it must be victo rious. [From the Wilkes-Barren (Luzerno c 0.,) Union.] THE BALTIMORE NOMINEE.—After such a week as we hope never to witness again in a Democratic convention, the delegates of the nation on Saturday last a week, consumma ted the unmistakable wishes of the people of the United States by nominating Stephen A. Douglas, the bright star of the West, as the Democratic candidate for President. The struggle of the people against power was a long one ; but the former finally triumphed over the machinations of an Administration which inflicted fearful injuries upon a con fiding Democracy. It needed only a brief stay at Baltimore to satisfy any man that the minions of James Buchanan—not the South —were aiming the blow at the harmony of Democratic party, and consequently endan gering the peace of the Union. We are fully convinced that had the malign influences of the Federal officers from Pennsylvania alone, been out of the Convention, its deliberations would have been peaceful ; the Southern del egates would not have gone out ; the people's will would have been respected in the imme diate nomination of Mr. Douglas; and we would now he entering upon the campaign with every prospect of a most brilliant ter mination. But, in spite of all these influ ences, the National Democracy, planting itself upon the broad platform of popular rights, maintained its position, discomfitted its enemies, and inscribed upon its banner in letters of living light the name of the man of the people. [From the Cincinnati Enquirer, Juno 24.] In our judgment the nomination Of Mr. Douglas is equivalent to an election by the people. He is by far the most popular man of our day and generation. As a national candidate, standing upon a national platform of non-intervention upon the slavery ques tion, opposed by competitors who favor inter vention and meddling of Congress with the subject, he will be supported by every State of the Union, from Maine to California, and nowhere more zealously and enthusiastically than in the South—successfully supported in nearly all of them. The North-west will be a unit for him in November, as it was a unit for him at Baltimore. The great Central States of Pennsylvania, New York and Ohio, will give him large and heavy majorities over his Republican and disunion competitors.— Ile will carry the South by a heavy vote— mark the prediction 1 The office-holders and disunionists do not speak the sentiments of the people of that section of the Confederacy. This will be demonstrated when the people get the chance to vote. The enthusiasm this long-deferred and anxiously-desired nom ination will create in the North-west will be unprecedented since the days of Jackson.— His political opponeuts confess that no real ever had so many and such devoted friends, and they will readily put their shoulders to the work in aid of the election. His case has been taken out of the hands of the politi cianS and given to the people. We have no fears for the result. The hopes of the Opposition wilted, and caved completely when the news was received of Douglas' nomination. They had said to fate, "take any other shape but that and we will be content I" For weeks and months they have industriously labored to create the be lief that he could not be nominated. Their interest in the contest has been too powerful for them to conceal. They profess to take courage from the bolt, but they know in their hearts that it will not render Mr. Douglas less formidable before the people. The cir cumstances connected with it are calculated to politically strengthen him. There is no popular feeling in the cause of the Rich mond bolters. They have been backed up by no such expressions. Their movement will prove to be a miserable abortion, and will al most be lost sight of before the November election. The times are not propitious for the formation of third tickets and third par ties. They will obtain but a trifling vote this year. [From the Providence (It. I.) Post.] And now, Mr. Douglas having been unani mously nominated by a Democratic Conven tion regularly and fairly constituted, we hon estly believe he will be elected ! His name will sweep over the North-west like a whirl wind. He will carry New York, New Jer sey, Pennsylvania, and two at least, perhaps four, of the New England States. He has become the last hope of the friends of the Union, North and South. As for our own little State, we would risk nothing in pledg ing her vote for him. She is good for one or two thousand majority. [From the Juniata County True Democrat.] THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS—DOUGLAS AND JORNSON.---Wo in this issue give the tick et of the regular Democratic National Con vention nominated in accordance with the usages of the party, and placed upon a plat form that the Democracy of our glorious Union have unanimously ratified and hailed with delight, in the campaigns of 1852-56 ; and upon which success crowned their efforts in overthrowing the sectional and disunion co horts of Black Republicanism. The docrine of Congressional non-interven tion in the Territories, has not only been the doctrine of the Democratic party, North and South, but the doctrine of Union-men in all sections. The South has heretofore claimed but that, and the Northern Democracy has willingly conceded and heartily supported it. In 1856, it was pointedly and emphatically the issue, and no man can say else than that, in Pennsylvania, it was candidly presented and triumphantly sustained. Non-interfer ence by Congress was the sentiment of our Democracy then, and it is their sentiment now. [From the Philadelphia Press.] Our readers will have observed that we have demanded the nomination of Judge Douglas as due, not only to him, but to the integrity of the Democratic party, and also that we have said that no other man named would re ceive our support—not because we regard ourselves as bound to the fortunes of Mr. Douglas, but only because his overthrow would dissolve all obligations of honest men to the Democratic party, when that over throw was to be effected as a punishment for a fearless performance of duty. While, however, we shall support the elec tion of Stephen A. Douglas; the Press will in no,yespect be a party newspaper. It can scarcely go further in vindicating him than it has already gone, and while following the path it has marked out, will not hesitate to do justice to other candidates and to other parties by abstaining from all imputations upon their integrity, and by reiterating none of the silly scandals and calumnies of their adversaries. To this remark we must make one exception : - The Press is the uncompro mising fee of the Disunion-secession Admin tration party; the foe of its candidates, of its leaders, its organs, and its apologists, North or South. And the strongest claim that Doug las has to the sympathy of the American masses is probably to be found in the fact that he is the avowed antagonist of all enemies of this Confederacy, and particularly of the men in the slaves States who seek to make slavery the only test in Democratic politics, and eagerly accept every pretext to endanger the existence of the Republic. [From the Albany Atlas and Argus, the Organ of the New Yurk DeDiOcritey.3 THE NOMINATION OF DOUG LAs.—We are not at liberty to suppose that any mere question of admission of con testing delegates to a Con vention, or of the man who shall be the stand ard-bearer of the Democracy in the approach ing campaign, has caused the unfortunate di vision at Charleston and Baltimore, and, at last placed conflicting Presidential nomina tions in the field. Such causes are inade quate, and it is clear that the separation has taken place over the great issue between Con gressional protection of slavery, or a slave code by Congress, in the Territories, and "non intervention by Congress with slavery in State or Territory." This is the precise and only point of difference made by the resolutions of the regular Convention and the seceding Con vention, and this is the question upon which both bodies go down to the people for their verdict. Wo have co-operated, both at home and at Baltimore ~with those who have anxionsly sought to preserve the unity and integrity of the Democratic party of the nation. To se cure such an end we were prepared to yield, and we urged our friends to yield, all points except those of principle—every question re lating to the admission of delegates, and even the candidate who was evidently the choice of a vast majority of our own State Lind of most of the Northern States. We went so far in this direction as to incur the censure of many of our friends. But have never been prepared to yield the doctrine of non-intervention and adopt that of Congres sional protection. Here was a principle which it was inadmissible to sacrifice, and which in addition to the question of right, could not be sacrificed by our party, without committing political suicide. In present circumstances, we have no diffi culty in determining : our duty. We adhere to the regular National Convention of the Democratic party of the Union ; to the doc trine reaffirmed by it from the Cincinnati platform of " non-interference by Congress with slavery in State or Territory ;" and to the candidate regularly nominated by it, Ste phen A. Douglas, of Illinois. If all the in dications of popular opinion which preceded this Convention do not prove deceptive, we shall be sustained in this position by a majori ty of the etcetera of our ozon, State. There I will be a popular uprising in favor of the Na tional Democratic platform of non-interven tion, which stands midway between the ultra Southern doctrine of Congressional protec tion and the Republican doctrine of Congres sional prohibition. It is safe and solid, ground, upon which conservative men cart stand. [From the Johnstown Echo.] THE NOMINEES-OER. COURSE.—The tional Democratic Convention at Baltimore. having fairly nominated and declared Ste phen A. Douglas, the candidate of the De mocracy of the Union for the Presidency, we are constrained by a sense of patriotic duty, to lower from our mast-head where in pride we had placed it, the name of the candidate of our personal choice, Hon. John C. Breck inridge, and raise in its stead the choice of the National Democratic Convention, Hon. Stephen A. Douglas. Belonging to no man, or faction, but having always been fair an& conservative in our political course—always doing that which promised the fullest allegi ance to the principles we have so long upheld, we have in obedience to our convictions of right, raised to our mast-bead the name of the favorite of the people, Stephen A. Doug las, of Illinois, as the National Democratic candidate for the Presidency_ Having ever been sound and consistent in our devotion to the Constitution and the Union —the triumph of the Democratic party and. its principles, having ever been the object for which we labored and most desired, we can not now willingly take a retrogade step by joining our fortune to a party of men„, who, excited by prejudice and led by obstiriancy, are attempting in their madness to break up the great Democratic organization. Ever in tending to represent what we believe to be the wishes and interests of the people, and ever intending to adhere to the glorious prin ciples of the great old Democratic party, and to stand by the Union and the Constitution, we fling to the breeze our banner on whieh, are inscribed the names of DOUGLAS and. JOHNSON, the nominees of the National Democratic Convention. [From the Cleveland (0.) Plain Dealer.] CROW, CHAPMAN, CROW 1--This day we have the pleasure of striking out the conditions on which we were pledged to support Douglas, viz : " subject to the decision of the Charles ton Convention." That decision has been made, and we are called upon to support him, nor need we assure our readers of the pleas tire it gives us to do so. We have called our chanticleer out, the first sound of whose clear el:trim - 1 voice raised the entire population over which he presides, and the masses from the poultry yard have rushed unanimously to his support, and a hundred chanticleers are in. full chorus about our office. Banners fly to the breeze suddenly likely the bursting forth of the night blooming cereus. Cannons al most start from their carriages, impatient to open the glorious campaign. Bands catch the inspiration of the moment, and the mar tial spirit seems to cry, Awake nld drum o•ho,e :inning beat •• Ne''er from the battle beat retreat." Illuminations, bonfires and torch-light pro cessions are the order of the day, and DOUG LAS, the people's champion, is the watch word. Caow, CuArm.tx, Cram- ! Not over com peting or opposing Democrats, for we have opposed their favorites while they opposed ours, which they and we had an undoubted right to do, and we, like them, have steadily pledged ourselves to abide by the, decision of the Charleston-Baltimore Convention. We contend that one of the leading elements in the character of Douglas is toleration. Man ly independence, or manly opposition within the party gives no offense, for if anything is established by the selection, it is that an offi cer may retain his manhood and his office too. May differ in an opinion on minor subjects and express that difference freely without hazarding his official head, but Crow. that the battle with sectional fanatics, North and South, is fought and won, that Young Amer ica has won a victory over federalism, and broken the power of selfish old Fedral hacks, making patent the power of the people, for principle. The people have followed selfish leaders long enough, and have reversed the order of march. We rejoice that the Presidential question is settled, and settled right, sustain ing the Constitution, Laws, Judiciary, and the rights of the people to rule locally, with no other interference or limitation than the Constitution, under which they legislate. We rejoice that the storm is substantially and effectually ended, and the negro contro versy settled, as Mr: Buchanan said in his letter of acceptance, " settled in the only way in which it can be settled, by leaving it to the people of the Territories exclusively. From this day forth our lance is devoted to our enemies, testing them by the regularly, adopted platform of the party, and the sup port of its champions, DOUGLAS AND JOHNSON, [From the Lancaster Inquirer.] We know there is a disposition among many persons, who have hitherto been considered good Democrats to disregard the admonition uttered by the National Convention, and who making personal prejudice the standard of pure Democracy, intend still to carry on the war against the regular candidate of the par ty. To these, we say, beware. The organi zation once disrupted ; it cannot be foreseen where the termination of its consequences may be. The process of disintegration may go on from Nation to State, from State to County, from County to township and city, until Presidents, Governors, Constables and Mayors, shall all fall victims to the spite of the stubborn few. We caution the dissatis fted in 'time, that they are handling a two.: edged sword, sharp on both edges—very. We do not consider it at all necessary to argue here the regularity of the nomination of Mr. Douglas, or the irregularity of that of Mr. Breckinridge. 'We discern nothing in the action of the National Democratic Conven tion upon which it had not a full right to act. We believe that the secession of those dis unionists, who, by hiding their real views before their constituency—as in the case of Yancey, Meek, and others—crept into the Con-.. vention, was designated long before the Charleston Convention assembled. The se cessions at Charleston and Baltimore are but two acts in the terrible drama, whose catas trophe will prove to be the dissevering of the Slave Atlantic States from the free States east of the Rocky Mountains, and the erec tion of a third empire on the far shores of the Pacific. In the last, the rod of empire is to be wielded by Lane and Gwin, and in the Black Republic by Yancey, Davis, Slidell, Benjamin, and their compeers. The creed of these men is that which blind John Miltoa caught from the lips of Satan : fc Here we may reign secure, and in my choice, To reign is worth ambition, though in Hell; Better to reign in LEA than serve in Heav'n
