So early, we think, as 1844, when, barely mure than thirty years of age, Mr. Douglas was regaVded as a probable candidate for the Presidency; blit bo was not earnestly 'pressed till 1852] when he received, on one; ballot in the Democratic National Convention; more votes than any of his competitors—92 out of, 288. A supposed party exigency finally led to p con centration of t}ie vote on (Jen. Franklin Pierce.

'But though Mr. Douglas failed, in our view, to ap prehend and do justice to morql aspects of the great question involved, we'believe 1 be evinced no want of sagacity nor of Just appre ciation of public .sentiment, in propounding that scheme. If the Northern Democracy and their Southern allies were to be held together at all, it must have been on the platform so de vised by Mr. Douglas. Nor do. wo feel, looking back calmly over the whole fierce struggle of the lust ten years, that Mr. Douglas intended to diffuse Slavery by his Nebraska policy. What be did 1 mean was to devise and i establish a ground on'which the Democratic Party could continue to stand together, govern the country, and elect him to the presidency.- : To this end, it wq« .desirable if not essential that Freedom arid Slavery should have equal opportunities as well as rights in the Territories—that the should regard and : treat them with like favor or like indifference,. -But the gang of political gamblers who call thchiselves •• never meant anything of the sort.
