Is the Reading Presidential Electoral Ticket Regular T In these days of ftision and contusion, the regularity or irregularity of any given politiv cal proceeding it is hot always easy to. deter mine. So tortnons and zig-zag are many of the complications ini Which Southern disunion plotters have involved the Democratic party, that it requires both the spear of Ithuriol and the thread of .Dandalus to lead one out of their mazy labyrinths. Tho irregularity of the Electoral Ticket, constituted at Reading, for* tunji’telyaJraiis of. negcontroversy. The case is so plain that the wayfaring man, though a fool, need not err therein. By its friends it is claimed to be the Simon Fare ticket—tho 're gular ticket, par excellence— Moses, and. the Prophets —the Law and the Gospel—tho «One Thing Needlul.” Wo utterly deny that, as a whole, it is anything of the sort. On the contrary, we anathematize and de nounce it as a bogus ticket of the first water— animpertinent and preposterous mortification —a Morkeoai at onr gate—a Lazarub at onr door—a lion in our path—a frog in our cham ber—a dead fly in out political ointment—the one thing, wholly and altogether not needful— and an insuperable drawback to Democratic success in Pennsylvania, oven if there were no such thing as a Republican party in existence. What is an elector 1 What is his office, ii chosen? What are tho duties incumbent on him? He is not a pharisee, but only a scribe . Ho is Bimply a clerk, appointed,by a sovereign constituency, for a special purpose, which is the registry of their will. H>s duties are as purely and as exclusively mechanical as are ’the movements of the trumpeter and chess player of the immortal Maxlzel, which were always directed by a superior wilL So thoroughly haß this ever been understood, that there never has existed a period in the history of Pennsylvania politics, when the ’electors appointed by Democratic State Con ventions have not been obliged to give written pledges, in advance, to the effect, that, if elected, they would, in the Electoral College, deposit their votes for the nominees of the Democratic National Convention. This common custom has passed into common law. Apply this ancient and authoritative usage to tho electors nominated at Read ing, and what was their plain and obvi ous duty ? Was it not to send written pledges to tho Chairman oi tho Democratic State Committee to the effect that, in the event ot thoif election, by every obligation of duty and honor, they would cast tho vote of tho Statu .tor Stephen A. Douglas for the Presidency, and Heksouel V. Johnson tor tho Vico Pre sidency?—which pledge, and which alone, would have Tondored them legitimate and regular candidates for Democratic suffrage. These pledges quite a number of the men on the ■Reading electoral ticket have not given. Oh the contrary, under the pestiferous counsels of disorganizing and ambitions Disunionists, they have agreed, in a certain contingency, .to voto against the regular nominees of the Democratic National Convention, and in favor of other men, not at all to be recognized as legitimate national Democratic nominees. Aye, one of tho men on the Reading ticket, Mr. Lee, of Armstrong, has even proceeded a-step further, and has announced, in ad vance, that in no event would ho cast his vote for Dou.olas and Johnson ! And now this ticket is held up, forsooth, to tho Democratic party of Pennsylvania as “ re gular,” and every man who refuses to.voto it is anathematized as a deserterfromthe Demo cratic camp, and is ordered to be shot, hung, or, quartered, as tho cose may be, under tho second section! Truly, if this be a ticket valid and tegular, then have wo never, in our whole life, heard or read of one that was in valid and. irregular. The men upon it pledged to' , Douglas and Johnson, we admit, have oil the essential elements of regularity, and these, Democrats, wedded to ancient principles and usages, can and will support. But tho others, pledged to Bomebody else, or nobody, or everybody, as circumstances may seem to ron der expedient, or as tho capricious inclina tions of the electors themselves may suggest, or as tho O. "P. F.” from the Secession headquarters' at Washington may direct V- ithesCrs are no more entitled to tho suffrages of Democrats, on tho score of regularity, than would J. B. himself bo cn ,titled to them, were he a candidate, on tho plea of fidelity to his pledges, consistency and wisdom in his administration of the Govern ment, or devotion to. his early friends! With out these pledges—always exacted, never be fore refused —no candidate for a placo in tho Electoral College of Pennsylvania has ever been regarded as, on tho. ticket at all, far less urged as legitimate and regular. If such a thing had happened when Andrew Jackson was a candidate, or James K. Polk, nr Lewis Cass, or James Buohanan himself,-tho De mocracy ot Pennsylvania, with united an burning indignation, wonld have stricken every such candidate from the ticket, and substi tnted other and better men! Why should it he otherwise now ? Who will give an answer ? Wo challenge a reply that has any claim to candor or trnthlniness. Be assured, then, whattbo Welshmen, in'response to the pesti lential counsels received, lrom Washington, have so ignobly failed to do in their committco room, Aim of independent and honest De mocrats will do for themselves, on Tuesday next, at the ballot-boxes. And wo moreover pre dict, that on account of it, they will not damago their reputation Us zealous and con sistent Democrats, nowyir hereafter. Halting .Logic. . Tho organ of Mr. Slidell, the Now Orleans Daily Delta, construes the withdrawal of the straight Douglas electoral ticket,' in this State, as follows*.' ' .*? When that proceeding was first aunetweed in those tersely obseiire terms for which the telegraph is remarkable, benevolent people were inoHned to explain it on the theory of some latent fountain of desire for the defeat of Lincoln, hithorto concealed in the bosom of the Dongles party. The faots of the oase annihilate this charitable hypothesis. The grounds upon which thoir action is based—the motives avowed by the Douglas leaders—the char aotor of tho men who were conspicuous in the movement—the falsity of their statements, and the insolence of their pretensions, are quite enough to refute any accusations of virtue and patriotism that might be brought against them. When it is known that John n. Forney was the Instigator of this proceeding—that it was propose d in the com* mil tee by his friends, and carried through by his followers—no one can doubt that it is replete with meditated treachery and threatened danger. It may seem strange that the Dougiasites should haye taken this, method of consummating their treason against the Demoor&tio party, ana of ac complishing their projeot for tho election of Lin coln.” . . Tho Administration papers in this Stoto groqt the withdrawal of the Douglas electoral Uckefi as a concession to harmony—and cer tainly those who participated in that move ment are known to bo decidedly opposed to the election of Mr. Lincoln. It shows how wllftiUy they are misunderstood by the DU unionists, and how fatally any Democrat offends tho Secoders who dares to avow him self in favor of Stephsj? A. Douglas. •Sheridan Knowles* Tho public, who havo derived so much pleasure from the dramatic productions of Jajces Skebidan Knowles, will be glad to learn „ that there is no truth in tho report of His deatli. Do has written so much and so well for the stage, that universal regret would be feltathialoss*. No dramatist, of any age,has so invariably inculcated lessons of morality, pnrity, and virtue. Latterly, ho entered the Mi nistry, as a Baptist preacher, we believe. It has been reported that he has, in his sermons, attacked the stage and the drama. This is untrue, for Knowles, whom the writer of this has known almost from childhood, continues to draw, to this day, a considerable income from the performances of his ewn plays in England. He never was a hypocrite, and would not accept a livelihood for what he condemned., We subjoin the contradiction of his death: addressed to the Daily News of London t 1 .To thb Ediiob or ran Daily News: Sir— .l observe a statement in several papers wbloh in cludes the name of Mr. Sheridan Knowles in the list of passengers by the wreoked steamer Arctic, from Hull to bt.

Every day odds a non argument to tho volume that has alroady accumulated, proving that tho friends of John C. Bredkinrldgo aro Dlsunionißts, or rather that all tho Disunionists aro frionds of Breckinridge, fivory preparation for violonoo in tho event of tho oloation of Lincoln, ovory threat of repudiation or soocseion, aomes from these men. How, then, oan tho Domooraoy of tho free States support electoral tiokets oomposod, in whole or in part, of tho advocates of tho sooe6Bion and Disu nion candidates for President and Vioe President ? Judge Douglas himself wisely anticipated precisely tho state of things now existing, when, early in tho present canvass, ho drew his sword npon tho one* mics of the Union, and denounced all attempts to fuse with them as alike wrong to himself and to tho principles of whloh ho is tho representative. Do tho followers of his standard in Pennsylvania know that, at this momont, tho Disunionists boldly olaim every Southern State for Breckinridge ? Have they realized that, as if to unito the South ern people upon a Disunion and resistance plat form, should the Ropubiioan oandldato triumph, they are hunting down the friends of Bell and Everett, and trying to force all conservative men iu tho South into their Tanks? What a oalamity it would bo should Breckin ridge carry all tho Southern States and be chosen President by tho aid of those iu tho free States who had been made electors by tho votes of tho Douglas Domooraoy! How is tho Demooratio organization, in Pennsylvania and nlsowhero, to ho maintained horeafter if tho majority of the Do mooratio party ehould decide in favor of fusion eleotoral tiokets, composed, is part, of rank Dis unionists? Whore will tho old prinoiplos of tho parly be when tho masses meet together to re assert them? The difference between snoh a men as Qoorgo M. Heim, and other Disunion Breckin* ridga men on your eleotoral tioket, and such a man as ltiohard Vaux—a national Democrat, standing upon tho doctrine of non-interifention—is as the difference between night and day, and oan never be reconoiied. If tho men who have yielded to the fusion eleotoral tiokot in Pennsylvania believe they oan oenquer tho organization over tho Dis unionists in that State, they aro mistaken, unless, iudocdj it is proposed, in order to aohieve such a result, to subordinate prinoiplo to expodienoy; in whioh event, of course, new defeat wilt be hoapod upon tho Domooraoy until it becomes a mere remnant, and ia lost, like otbor oxtinot organiza tions, in those parties which profess noblor viows and aim at moro oomprohonsivo onds. Tho plea that the Brcchioridgomonon the Penn sylvania eleotoral tiokot would voto for Douglas, should they succeed, ia enother absurdity. It ia as notorious iu Washington ns olsowhore, that n number of these moa have dcclarod that, under no oironmstanoes, would thoy voto for the Demooratio oandldato for President. What, then, ie to bo tho rosalt of thoeo fusions ? Nothing bnt disasters, no thing but'divlaions, in the future no in tho past. Thoy have boon made in tho faco ot oortain defeat; and while it does not beoomo me to ohallenge tho motives of tho frionds of Douglas who have yiold ed in Pennsylvania, I- should havo greatly pre ferred, with thousands of other Dcmoorate, if thoy had adhered to their straight ticket, so ns to leave ns, after November, at least our old prinoiplos upon whioh to stand. Now, I fear thnt, unless we al low tho pro-elavory organa and oraolee to foroo tho ontire Demooratio party of tho froo States npon the ground that slavery shell be protcoted In the Ter ritories, in violation of tho public will; unless, in other words, we chain ourselves to-tho oar of men who now swear that they will sooede after tho elec tion of Lincoln, or will resist his inauguration to tho death, we shall fiad ourselves driven from the ranks of tho parly, or foroed to maintain an une qual battlo against an intolerant and bigoted Southern sectionalism. Jefforson Davis is to make his great speech on Saturday next, November 31, at Vioksburg, Mis sissippi, in which ho is expeoted to lay down the course that tho Southern States must pursue in the event of tho oloation of Linooln. As I writo I have bofore mo an advance copy of tho Missis, sipptan, published at Jaokson, in that State, and the known organ of Mr. Davis. In this pnper it is announced that a grand ooltcotion of tho mill, tary of Mississippi aud tho Southern States is to bo hold at Jaokson, on Thursday, the Bth of No vember. Premiums of from ono to two hundred dollars aro offered for tho best dragoon and in fantry in Mississippi, and a sweopstnko ot two hundred dollars far tho best company in the Sopth. From tho same journal I out an extract from the Viokaburg Citizen, eaid to be a Deuglae paper, which announocs Col. Davis’ groat epecoh of the 3d, as follows. Tho italics aro net mlno: " Although differing widely wiih Coi Davis in regard to the political issues or tho day, wo yet recognize in him one of tho greatest minds, if not the greatest, in iho South ; and should war come, .as come full well it may, betweon tho seotions Jefferson .Davis will prove a tower of strength to the Southern cause. Net only is ho one of tho groatest statesmen of tho country, bnt, as a mili tary man, ho is justly regarded as without an equal in tho Ropublio. lie will, doubtless, bs the generalissimo of the Southern army.” It will bo remembered that Hon. William Witte testified before tho Naval Investigating Committee that he obtained tho contraot for tho machinery of the steamer Pawnee, recently completed at the works of Messrs. Itennio, Nenfie, & Co., and that for those services ho was to rccsivo ono half of the profits. The vessel has sailod for the Gulf, and the reports as to tho poriormance of her machinery aro not at all satisfactory to those interested in tho profits; and hence, they are daily besicglDg the - Secretary of .the Navy for their pay, not wishing to watt for tho termination of the three months required by contraot. As a certain class of inon oan obtain all they wish from tho present powers that be, and will no doubt succeed in this instance, I merely wish to show you how it is done. . The contract states that the machinery shall: develop 1,100-horso power for six hours,' make forty revolutions per mlnuto, and steam sixteen miles per hour, and that the propellers should bo sovonteen feet pitoh. Two very unsuc cessful trial trips wore had, and thou several al terations were made in her machinery, and her propellers reduced in pitch from soventecn to thir teen foot, and yet, with alt these alterations, the maeffinory, on her recent trip to Pcnsaoolo, did not, for any six honrs, average 750-horse power and thirty-five revolutions of engines with present ' propellers, (bclng'equal.to only twenty-nine revolu tions of thoso stipnlatod in tho contract,) while hor speed was leHs than twelve miles per hoar. Buoh being iho case, only 68 per oent. of tho power gnarantied being obtained, you will wonder .how the money can bo paid. Tho solution is caßy. The parly olalming it is all right in poiltios, end claims that Mr. Griffiths, the eonstruotor, made tho vessel a tittio deeper and a little wider than the original specification, and hence they arc entitled to their money. If this wore true, It has nothing to do with tho power of the machinery, as that should bo to oontraot, while it is 68 per cent. less. iVith other contract ors Mr. Touoey has been Tory exact, requiring them to fulfil to the lettor, but in this case ho' shows weakness in the knees His friends must bo taken onto of, anil the Troasury can better afford to pay than ho oan to loco his commission, and to leave snob, a delicate business as thi3 for the next Administration is not to bo thought of. Thorefore be not surprised to learn that tho money haa been paid, and that the heart of the gallant Witts will ifjoloo thereat. Occasional.

Speech of Daniel Dougherty,,Esq, In pursuance of an Invitation, our gifted towns man, Daniel Dougherty, Esq , addressed & largo and onthusiaslio assemblage of his fellow-Domo orats favorable to the election of Stephen A. Deuglas and Horsohol V. Johnson. The invitation was extended by the Young Men’s Douglas Club, who are strongly opposed to all fusion with the Secessionists, and, judging from the enthusiasm manifested Inst ovening, we are constrained to be lief© that the masses of the Democracy In,this city are ,of the some op)mGn. At eight o'clock, the olub, accompanied by a fine band of music, torchos, banners, transparencies, &o. } entered tbo hall. They were followed by a largo orowd,"and 'the hall was filled to its utmost oapaoity. Homy C.ltutz, was appointed president, and satd : Wo havo met here to-night for the purpose of hearing our eloquent feliow-oitizon, Daniel Dougherty, address us upon the great Issues of the ,£•, n detain you by any remarks my self, but will discharge tho duties of my position by introducing him to you forward, tho band struck up 4 Hail to the Chief,” the audicnoo rose to their foet, and the loudest demonstrations of applause greeted thoeppearanoe of this gifted orator. When tho applause had subsided, Mr. Dougherty said : in comeimnos with tho lind invitation extended to me. l am here to address yoU, my fellow-oitizens of the Democracy. Courtesr demands that I should, an from my heart» do. thank the raembsr ßO f the Yodng Men's Douglas Club for this s riking evidence of their pirtiMi ty. lam,aBToußiJ do know, a private man—one who never sought either office or honor, butwno Ir»s ever been willing to ]pnd his hninblo aid m advocacy of those politioal principles around whioh I think are clustered the prosperity of our beloved State, the Integrity of the Federal Constitution, and the perpetuity of the Union itself. I do not aepifo to he 4bh lehder of the people. No man or set of men are responsible for mv opinions; but being invitee hero to-night, by this organization! t ato here to speak forth my sentiments freely and without reserve-; [Applause.] Mr only regret is that speaking entirely without preparation, and upon the spur of the moment, I cannot spoak to you in the way that my own feelings diotate. and this honor demands. The experience ol tho last few years has convinced me that therb are men.whooaH themselves Democrats, and who would, for office or political honor, sell the r oountry and their God. t Applause.} To suoh as these I come not here to speak to-night, but to those citiSeDs who love tho Democratic party beoause they are lovers of their oountry. and those who are not prompted by the hope of political office or personal aggrandizement; but I am hero to plead in defence of this grand, glo rious, ard hlstorio party, to rescue it from the polluted grasp of ft sot of infamous trioksters, who are bent on Yinlajing.its purity, and dishonoring its name, and de stroying its fame, that they may thus kill the guardian aneel of the B ©public. Tho first point that r desire to cat! ynnr attention to is ns to the nomination, because, speaking W you sq f do, 1 am not devoted!? attached to the fortunes of any man. for I rooolleot, fellow-oitizens, when I was a boy. I hnd a very different opinion a* to tho great men of the land from what I have now. I walked down Chest nut street ono day with a man who hnd reoeiv»d tbe Democratic nomination for the Legislature in this city, and, although there was not tne slightest chance of his election, I fancied that every person was looking at me. But-1 fin.! that lam mistaken, and. therefore, I say hern to-night, that if Mr. Douglas is not ihe nominee of the Demooratio party he ean never receive my vote, under any mnumstances. [Applause ] If he is the nominee of the Democracy and etc nds upon the Democratic prinßiJleq, as an humble membor of the Democratic party, it »a my bdqndon uiltv to give him an ardent and onthusinatio support, and liilfi alone. [Ap- Flnuse ] I did not come here to indulge in declaration. am here to reason with you, mi fellow-citizens, and to show you, if I ean, that Mr. Douglas is the nominee, and if loan convince you fromths record that he is tho nominee, then, I am sure, as honest Democrats, you will give him your votes and support. [Cheers.! Tho National Demooratio Contention assembled in the city of Charleston upon tho 23d day of Aptil last. In that body were representatives of tbe Democracy from every Mato and Congressional diatriot In the whole Republio. Thoro tner were—men whose homo# were fir and far apart. Thera wore thoso who represented the great cities of tho Atlantic; there were m*nwho live amid the prauies of the wild West., those who live among the mountains of Maine, and those who dwell where the tact rays of tho sotting sun linger amid the flowers of Florida, or blaze amid tho golden sands of California. Thero were those whose homes were washed hy the waters of the Atlantic, and those who dwell where rolls the Pacific, and Aears the sound of civilization d r owninr the dashes 4T its waves They were there aFsembleri.as a band of brothers, their sole and honorable intent being to perpetuate the prmcjplhS of tho Democracy, and to give tho people a standard bearer for the coming national fight. The first busi ness in order woa the selection of a President, and (hen the adoption of oortain rales of order lor tbe government of the body. I need not speak to you of tho absolute necewdty of having rules of order; and the rules adopted for tho government of that body, were, bv the unanimous < nns?nt of every member of tb® Convention, (he rales of the House of Representa tives of the United States. There were some disputed seats to be settled, and th©n it seemed to be the desire to,havo a platform adopted. A oommitteo was ap pointed for the purpose of reporting resolutions to the Convention, which whs to bo theplaiform. Therdprf lutionswere reported to the Convention. Th« resolu t'ons offered by Mr. Samuels, of lowa, were voted upon, each resolution bvitself, nndwhenthey wore introduced as an amendment, the vote stood 128 nays to 165 yeas; “and then.” the rooord says. “ the minority report, of fered by Mr. Samuels, was adopted assn amendment,” the vote showing that IBS votes wore m favor of the platform, and 13S against it. The question was then taken os to iuo adoption of the report as amended, the vote being taken on each reso lution separately, with the oxoeption of tho one pledging the Demooratio party to abide by the decision of the Supreme Court on tho subject of slavery in tho Territories—whioh wos rejected—they woro adopted by a vote which wasnearlr unanimous. Recollect, gentlemen, it wasafud Convention—not a member was abtont from his soa'—no person had se ceded then—and by the record wo find that these reso lutions wore adopted by an almost unanimous Vot©. Now, I do not c,'torso, at this time, to apeak upon thee ft resolutions, but it is enough for me to say, that no new plank was introduced into our politioal platform, no ad ditional weights were thrust on the ohivalrie. Demo cracy of the North, to be borne during this great race for the Presidency. .The*" stood by the principles of their party. These principles are as firm as the moun tain*; men change as do the clouds, yot principles are os eternal as the heavens. [Applause.] Because of the adoption of these resolutions cortain delegates who had seats in tho Convention arose and Ififtthe iwdy. Among these were delegates from Ala bama. Mississippi, Louisiana, and Georgia. Why, my fellow-oitizens, suppose that a Convention is assem bled here in our city for the purpose of making dertain nominations, and that deleentes from any ward should leave,the body: does that cease to make it a Conven tion f Not at nil. Did tho gentleman who left the National Convention at th(« time pretend to saT that it was less a Convention afterwards ? No; bo* came tbe record shows that, after the adoatum of this platform upon which we now stand, the Conven tion remained in session for some five or six day*.* For four days they continued to bal’ot for a President of the (Jetted States, with Caleb Cushing imtheohair— are- icllow-DemooTats, when I but Caleb Cushing was in the chair, it almost makes ray blood boil with indig nation. I am a. Democrat— one of tho rank and file—one true to (no Ffii’tv. but 1 say we have had too many men in positions of lhat kind whOso lives have been spent in warring animat Our principles. onr organization, and our men. They have been placed by our masters at Washington over tho heads of those better-than themselves; aye, and. placed there to'tramp\e true Do ro oo racy under foot. I Applause.] Thus it is that Caleb Cushing, for taking his seat in tha Demo? oratio Convention in 1552, was rewarded by President Pierce with tho position df 'Attorney General in his Cabinet A most stnkine example was that of ffra, H. Heed, who. in 1856, made aspeeohataplaco very appro priately named Somerset, [inughter,] am) was rewarded bv Mr. Uuohanan wtth minuter plenipotentiary to China. I ear, that this man Cnshinr, who afterwards left tho Convention m Baltimore upon n mere question or disputed seats—that he. for four days, was In his seat as president of the Convention in Ch» lestou. after they hod'adopted the Demooratio platform, and then continued to ballot, with the others, for a President of the United States. "What is more— those Senators are now at open war attaioat the regu lar Democratic party. They aay that we are not at open war against the regular Deraoomtio organization —that we are hot standing upon Democratic princi ples; and yet, if you will look at the record, you will find that, during these four days, Mr Guvhrie was voted ‘or upon fifty-seven ballots—that the illiterate candidato for Yiao President ot tho Ecoeesiomsts, Joe Lano, was voted for upon fifty-seven ballots, and that Jefferson Davis received one vote upon nearly nil of these ballots, Now, gentlemen, they were in the oity of "Washington; ono flash of tho lightning line would bring ihe news to their ears that the Charleston Convention hnd adopted tho Cincinnati plat form, upon which we now stand. Did they protend to say, “withdraw my name, because I cannot stand on that platform.''” Nothing of ihe k nd. Thor were willing to stand upon that platform, as Mr. Davis said inlhe Sen ate, afterwards, provided tho De mocracy of the land would yield to them, and would take tho oandidato thevdictated; but if tnoy wanted a roan of tne people, who was true- to his allegianoe, his God, his Constitution, and hie country, they would not do so. Thus, after balloting for four days, the Convention adjourned to the oityof Baltimore; and what was this done for ? was it for the purpose of per mitting the gentlemen who had seorded from tbe Con vention to take theirseats again? Why, if that were so, where would be the necessity of adjourning for six weeks ? There was scarcely a delegate in tho Cnarles ton Convention who had not gone tticro at great per sonal inoonvemenoo and at considerable expense; and yet they asked him again, at the expiration of six weeks, to negieot his business, and go to Baltimore What was the'.r obieot for adjourning? On tbo 3d of May and the tenth day of the session, Mr. Russel, of YirgiDia, ofl<*red Ihe following resolution; ; Resolvtd , Thatwhen this Convention adjourns to day, it adjourns to assemble at Baltimore, Md., on Monday, tho 18th of June, r.nd that it be roepectfully recommended to tho Democratic party of tho several States to make provision for supplying tho vaeanoio# in t heir respective dolegatiobs to tins Convention, when it shall reassemble. i To supply alt vnoanoies in their rospcotive delega tions when it shall reassemble ? Not to permit Mr. Yancey to take hiaseat, but it waa for tho purpose of permitting tho States had not a sufficient number of representatives. to. fill up their numbers. To show that this is so, I have hero a paper that has spoken much on this rubjeot. Four years ago it was ihe great record of the Democratic paTtv. Now it is descended to-be *nothing but the-organ of tho ex treme fire-eaters of tho South, and of the enemies of tho party. Mr. Dougherty here read an extract irom the reurwplfrtatNaof May 7, *B5O. Boshowod the gross in consistency of its statements at that time and those it now professes. Mr. Dougins received upon tbo first ballot 173)4 votes, and Mr. Breckinridge only ft a voto. and upon the fifth Mr. Guthrie receive-! 3 votes, and finally Mr. Douglas received 181 votes. A motion was made hr a delegate that Mr. Douglas be declared the unanimous ohoioe of tho Convention for president, i shall never forget that moment it will bo forever im pressed upon my memory, The Front-street ’Theatre was filled from pit to dome. There were statesmen from all part* of tho Union; in the br-xes were ihe beau ty of the land. Outside were oollooted more than. 10,000 people, Whon the president said, all those in fa vor of tho resolution will say aye, there pealed forth a shout that shook the building to ite foundation; and when tho president askod'thoso opposed to tho resolution to say •* No," there'was a silenco like that of the grave at night. Again a mighty shout arose out mde of tho building. Immediately Mr. J. L. Dawson rose ami said, 1 have opposed Mr. Doughs lrotn*-lhe first to the hat. but as he is tho unanimous choico of this body. I shall now give him iny support.” was thoro a member who aaul “no" io this? Not one. Mr. Baker, ol this oity, onma away in a tram imme diately, nna I nave been told that he said, whilo crorsing the I'otninso at Harnor’e terry, “ I will eivo my sup port to Mr. Douglas." I know that Mr. Win. 11. Welsh told several gontlomon—he to’d me also—“ Mr. iloUßlia is tho regular rnmineo, and I am bound to give him my support." Ho now says that Mr. Douglas was not fairly nominated. Who else makes this oharge ? Does »t not como from thoso in offioe in 'Washington ? Amongst those who say that Mr. Douglas is not romlarly nomi nated are Mr. Jeeio JD. Bright, of Indiana. Ho w 000 of the brilliant lights that slnno over our country. «o weak in intoliect as a ohild of three years. I herird his epoooh in Thiladelphia, in December, 1857. At that time every person was awaro that the people ol Kansas were opposed to the Le oompton Constitution, l know that wnathosentimortof.the people of iennsylvania. it was too dangerous a. position to take in v\ aßlnngtpn, and so he came hero to make lu* speech. I will give you an imitation of it. Mr. Dougherty here gave a re petrtton’ofMr. Bright's speech, going thiough ins mo tions, convulsing the audionoe wuh laughter.

WhT.itiafrom tboee who talk about the equality of the States They sfty we regard tfeia ware as mnoh os we do New York. As welt might we say that b?oauee the recent elections has gone for the Republicans, she is not the equal of South Carolina. Nay. more, that beoause Pennsylvania has recently eleoted Curtin for Governor, that the yoioeof the Demo nrats of the State is to be -bushed.and*nly ihat of t»e DeTocrnovof theBmith to be heard.

If I was speaking in the South-and I don’t Umit my love for this State—and the heart of every true Dsmoorat beats m re sponse for all parts, of the Union—l would eay this-in tho SOnth, .that the fault is not with us, but with you.

We Nortliern people have eyor been mindful of the rights of tiie South, because we hesitate to do a wrong action. Because we turned our baoks upon those who wished to make ua traitors to one section of the Union I we were reviled, we were burned in effigy. They say that Air.

Wedonoteleot our Governors or oar Presidents by this rule Thatamd i jority should rule is good Democratic doctrine. Bat let , ns.seo if Mr. Douglas had not really a majority of two thirds. .There were 303 electoral votes, iwo-thirdsis 202, and, therefor?! as Mr. Douglas got more than that j number, he was nominated. He got 212 votes, rr nine more than two-thirds. I dk7 lie was nominated by more 1 than two thirds. {Applause./ But let me claim your attention to one point. Every Demoorat in this fctateis bound to vote for Air. Ddu , gins, and no one elae.hy the allegiance he owes to hia party. I will prove this from the record. I will prove i it by the words of the great arch-tnobster, John Slidell. When tho Convention assembled in Baltimore, Mr. Church, of New York, rose and offered this winch was read, and orented rouoh enthusiasm: “ Re-' solved, that the credentials of all persons claiming seats in this Convention, who were delegates to n recent Con vention in Charleston, be referred to the Committee on Credentials, who are ordered to report, as soon &s prac ticable, th# nflmes of those who are entitled to coats ; that every per4ou takln? a seat in this Convention is bound in honor to abide Ur the decision of this Con vention, and to stand by its noihinations.’l -What ob jection wasmado? None. Borne Botithern cUiegates said it vroul-i be an insult to us, because we wdre bound m honor to abide by this nomination. Did no one object to this f Not one man in the whole Convention. Alluding to tho early struggles offtir, Douglas, the speaker said, tho boy-who By his own indomitable energy and, perseveranoe. by cultivating his mind, and olcaring his way through the gloomy saa of in tellect, who a lew yeara asb was unknown, now a ands in the Amerloan Senate a peflt among the mightiest, and the very mention of his name will start a shout that drowns the thunder Itself.' (Tremendous cheers.] What nss he not overcome? What obstacles has he not btokendown?. , , You aU know full well that two years ago, when he had his celebrated oontest in Illinois for thd Sena'torsbip, the President of the United State's ar H his Administration sent word to the men of (Hat State to “ defeat Douglas; he mu*t not be allowed to take b‘s seat again in4he Senate." He went into that contest and fought as nevor man fought before, and w*s triumphantly elected, and sent back to the position he so well adorns,'and when the time had come for tho people to name their candidates for the P.esidenoy. what did the old'mgrate do ? Jtd collect, he owed his nomination, in 18M, to the magna nimity of Mr. Douglas, yet the old Public Function al said to bis erniwries.his tools,his office-holders, and the H&Ssianq of the land—[laughter and applause] —in evory-distridt, “ Douglas must be defeated." He used aU his power and his might to'orushout the " Lit tle Giant" of the West; but the peonle, in spite of ail his endeavors, declared him tho nominee ot the regu lar Democracy for President of tho United States. ' Well, now, gentlemen, I have but a few more words to say upon this point of my address Who can pretend to say that John C. Breckinridge was the nominee? [Cries of nobody but the custom -house officers.] >es, 'fellow-citizens that ir so. But. most extraordinary- to relate*.while the cuo tom-houso officers and ’the delegation from Penn sylvania employed a steamer to take them to Charles ton, m the month of April, they absolutely left Balti more before the Convention mot that nominated Air. I Bfeckinridge, The Convention mstatfive or six o’olock on Saturday afternoon, and Collector Baker, a Senato rial delegate, ftbd a number of others from Pennsylva nia. left Baltimore several hours previous. Who wore the mop there Irom Pennsylvania—only foar. Mr. Henry AI Phillip's was not (here—bd is too shrewd a man to ho found in anything like that. No, gentlemen, thore were bat four delegates present from the State of Pennsylvania, and they had no right to speak for us. When we sent delegates to tho National Convention, thev represented us only whrle they re mained in that body. OAly one hundred and five de’d gates were in tbe Convention that nominated Breokitf ridgo.&ndhss that number the right to seleot a candi date for President of this great Republic ? And yet we are called upon to vote for him, although Airvßuolianan says w# may vote for whom we please. But, feHow oitizrns. if you want to remain true to Democratra principles, Bnd -do your whole duty, you must vote for Stephen A. Dodgias and Heraohel Y. Johnson. [Great 8 W tlieysaywe are not Btnndung upon .the Demo ofatfc platform. 'Well,' flow,'if Air Douglas is not nominated Upon the Democratic platform, and if the prinoiplos that fid espouses a*e not "round, -I'am against him. Let us look at this question for a moment. African slavery, which England now looks upon with hypocritical horfor, was introduced 1 into cur political parties when Great Britain denied I to tho people of these States the right to legislate for I themselves,they proclaimed,the principle of yopalat , sovereisnty in tho Deolar&tion of American Indepen dence. Our fathers, inspired by the holy fires of pntri -1 misnri, met in counoil. after the Revolution, and in , order to settle, in a plain, practical manner, all differ : mishtexißt between the thirteen Colonies, j they formed a Constitution, Which they fondly hoped 1 would liolu tlio Jtcpnblic together for untold o ntories. i From time to time, however, os the vast domain in ; 'creased, difficulties arose lh tho councils of the nation, | and when territory was abtfut to be purobased from Mexico, a powerful party in the North souebt to ■ deprive their Southern brethren of their rights in i that domain by the pft'Mge of the WilmoS Pro i vise. To tho rescue of their Southern brethren came the chivalry of tho North, who declared 1 umt their rights should be sustained. Thewarwatfd bi terly for weeks.' Then it was that all partuian : ship was forgotten in the more-ennobling theme of : patriotism, nnd Clay, who had retired to his home at j Ashland, resolved to quit his homo and journey back to ’ hiflQs&tiu the Senate, to render aid in bringing back j npnce to ovr distracted country. Then it was that I Webster, With a front like Jove, rose in Ins seat, m the j senate,and said, “ I speak not aa a Massachusetts man, but /or the Republic. Then it was that Hie venerable Cass and tho giant Douglas.ard the committee of tbir tern for four months were in session in o der to devise a plan to bring peace to our country. Then it was that tbo fanatics of the North assailed the rights of their Southern brethren, nnd after four months the com mittee decided that tbe question of slavery should be banished from the Congrers of the Uuited States for ever, and that the people' of the Territories should de oido for themselves their privileges under the Consti- At*. Dougherty continued at great length to trace the d.fficulties arising from the question of slavery, and read extracts from prominent Southern disuoionists, showing their approval of the Cincinnati platform* in concluding Mr. Dougherty said he was about to vole lor Air. Douglas. R# desired to be distinctly understood m regard to the electoral ticket. he notion of the Read ing Convention wne to susmin tho Ciocumati platform, and ©lectors were, chosen 'to vote for tbe Deino craticnomineefoMhe F«esldenoy. He denounced the ar-ticn of the - welsh comm jttoe. Now, if there was a Democratic nominee for president, be was bound to vote for him, but suppose that one hpon the electoral ticket was not in favor of voting for AJr. Lincoln or Mr. Bell, or any other man then the Demooratto nominee, should vre vote for him ? He was not going to the ballot box to vote for men who would crucify the national nominee ol theDemooratic'rarty. No .man lived on the soil of Pennsylvania,-in his opinion, who was attached to the interest of thoßtate and the institutions o! bis country, who would not vote lor Stephen A, Douglas. But lie would not vote fora man il be was on twenty electoral ‘ tickets, who was not true to the pnnoiules of the great Democratic party.- and in favor ot Stephen A. Douglas- and Hcrsohel V. Johnson. [Applause.] This was a bait!#-between the politiciansand the people. Be was one of tho lattoi' qlass, and therefore bad a right to be heard. They were-ofi tbe eve of a great Presiden tial strurglo, and it was with the greatest difficulty he could get a gentleman to preside over that meeting. One gentleman said he did notlike'to be against tbe orgamzation; another, upon being invited, said he had a positive engagement, and declined- He often thought of the man of ’7G. There wore giants in those days—mea who stood up for the right m defiance of the powernud patronage'of the King; they dartd to do right and stood hy tbeir whole country. Ho emphatically de- ! clarod his ratontions, and advised his fellow-Deinoorats to scratch the names of, those men on tho electoral i tiokol wh9 were oppossd to. the election of Stephen A, j Mr. Dougherty then referred to the attacksmade upon ! Mr. Douglas by the fire-eaters and Secessionists, and his remarks were received with daaCemng applause. Jn New York, this day. Air. Brady is denouncing Mr. Touglasfrom every hustings. Jn the South, when Mr. Johnson arose to spoak he was hissed. Every day their papers make attacks on him. And jot. I am asked to vote for that electoral tioke: subscribed to these doc trines. Shall men exorcise their discretion in regard to i voting for a shut-out tioket? It is not whether they j shall vote it or m spits of it. The main issue is before * the people. A terrible tune is approaching us. I believe ttna i believe in mv Alafeor, that the only I hope of the nation is in tho man to whom we give lour i eapporu One member of Congress has smd 1 have > een a Disuniomsi from tho time that I could think.
