THE FRIENDS OF DOUGLAS AND THE
STATE TICKET.
Democrats will find. matter worth consid
ering, in a communication which we publish
in this days paper, over the signature of
"B." In what be says, the writer moot;
manifestly Indicates the error of his own
position as a number of the Democracy. of
Pennsylvania. He seems to think Mr.
Douglas' position in Pennsylvania "an un
fortunate one," because the editor of the
Philadelphia Press, hai availed himself of.
the difference between Senator Douglas and
the Administration, to vent his personal
spleen upon the latter, while the support of
the former is used by Mr. Buchanan's en
emies, as a cover or excuse for Mr. Forney's
inexcusable departure from DemocratiC
usages, in battling against a Democratic Ad
ministration, and refusing to support a reg
ularly nominated Democratic State ticket..
Mr. Forney's quarrel with Mr. Buchanan
originated in transparent causes. When Mr.
Buchaimn was elected President of the Uni
ted States, Mr. Forney aimed for a high posi
tion—higher, as it turned out, than he was
successful in reaching. Ably and brilliantly
he had fought the Democratic battle of
fifty-six, and when the contest was over he
looked for, and sought at the hands of the
President a greater reward than he could
bestow, and still do justice toall the equally
able and older soldiers who rendered service
in - that campaign. Chagrined and asap
poi n ted. Mr. Forney "started a newspaper"
as many a disappointed politician before hint
has done.• The I,ecompton issue afforded
him an opportunity to vent his pent up bit
terness upon the President. The columns of
the Pre,q from day to day, for more than a
year past, have shown how gushing and
coneentrated this bitterness has been. His
paper has been a text book of the opponents
of Democracy, and we regret to say, that in
114 - own State some of his friends—men of
true Democratic feelings, have suffered
themselves to be drawn in to his per
sonal quarrel, and were mad enough to
attempt, to divide the Democratic party of
the State. Fortunately for the men who were
engaged in it and fortunately for the party,
this attempt was not successful. The act of
revolt from Democratic usages was never
consummated. The le:eicrs saw in • film
that the people would not endorse the nom
ination of an irregular State ticket for the
manifest purpose of defeating the reg
ular one, and the idea was abandoned.
All the apparent division which has exist
ed in the ranks of the Democracy of Penn
sylvania, have had their origin in Mr. For
ney's unfriendliness to the Administration.
But these differences have been, more ap
parent than real, :tnd as far as the State
ticket is concerned every Democrat no*
sees the policy of yielding it his support.
While the contest of ISt3O was afar off, Mr.
Forney, who is a man of great talent and
an admirable politician, would excite and
to a certain extent mislead a portion of the
Democracy by his brisk and hitter sallies
upon Mr. Buchanan ; but as that contest
approaches, the soldiers of the Democracy
rush into the ranks, oven if the leaders hold
back, waiting for a treaty of amnesty for
past political offences. "The Democracy
need their services, " and as this cry goes forth
they will come up from the mountains of
Pennsylvania, as the shouts arose up whe;ti
the swift runners bore the signal of war over
the Gaelie hills.
Thus much for Mr. Forney's personal quar
rel with Mr. Buchanan and his Administra
tion. It is a matter with which no Demo
crat has any concern, and with which
no Democrat who aims at the success of the
party, ought to sympathize. Mr. Forney
and Mr. Buchanan were friends ; they dif
fered ; they quarrelled ; he has no doubt
damaged the popularity of the Administra
tion in some degree ; it is the duty of Demo
crats to restore it if they can.
But what has Mr. Douglas to do with all
this ? The fact that Mr. Forney is his friend
does not bring him into the ranks of those
personally hostile to Mr. Buchanan: .
Forney's quarrel is not his quarrel.' The
fact that Mr. Forney supports him, is no
cause why every friend of the p'resent Demo
cratic Administratio n may not also support
him. He is a true Democrat and represents
the sentiments of three -fourths of the Dem
ocracy of Pennsylvania_ liis nomination in
1860 will not be the nomination of Col. For
ney, nor an endorsement of that gentleman's
quarrel with the Administration. He is not
identified With it—has no connection with
it. There is - no reason why Mr. Douglas
should in the remotest degree be held re
s.ponsible for the indiscretions of Mr. Forney,
and he will not be so held by any real friend
of the National Democracy of the country.
The friends of the Administration and of
Mr. Douglas in Pennsylvania are all Demo
crats—all laboring in the same great cause.
The friends of Mr. Douglas will yield their'
earnest and hearty support to the State tick- ,
et. - It is not men and their quarrels, but
the cause and its success, for which they la
bor. Mr. Douglas seems at the present time
to be the man best calculated to secure that
success in 1860, and to unite the Democracy,
not only in Pennsylvania, but all over the
Country.
He assumes no man's quarrels. His posi
tion is on the platform of Democratic prin
ciples, and there, and there only, will' the
Democracy support him. That Mr. Forney,
one of his friends in Pennsylvania, does not
support the State ticket this fall is agrievous
fault in ourey, and grievously will he have
to answer it. But Mr. Douglas - dOegniSt de7
sire-Mr. Forney to be gratified, nirr Mr. Bu
chanan "rebuked " by the defeat of the
ticket this fall.

through a' distorted medium if he ;thinks

HON. STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS
We have. received-information from Wash
ington City that Senator Douglas will leave for
the West this morning, and will take Pittsburgh
on his route. If then is no failure in the rail
road connexions, he will reach our city to-night.
He is announced to address the citizens of Ohio
at Columbus on Wednesday, and will remain
in our city as long as he can, and still be able
to reach. Columbus in time for the fulfilment of
his appointment. His friends in this city will
be prepared to extend to him its warmest hos
pitalities during the brief period that it will be
possible for him to remain here, and hope that
the railroads may enable him to
break not hours
Except it be to come before ho. tour
But few readers ever think of the labor and
care devolving upon an editor—one who vastly
feels his responsibility. Capt. Marryatt says :
•• I know how a periodical will wear down
one's existences. In itself it appears nothing,
the labor is not manifest ; nor is it in the labor;
it is the continual attention it requires. Your
life becomes, us it were, the publication. One
day's paper is no sooner corrected and printed
than on comes another. It is the stone of Sis
yphus, an :endless repetition of toil and con
stant'weight upon the intellect and spirits. and
demanding all the exertions of your faculties,
at the same Lime you are compelled to the se
verest drudgery. To write for a paper is very
well, but to edit one is to condemn, yourself to
slavery."
The New York Journal. of Commerce com
plains that many of the papers of that city are
••in the frequent, if not constant, habit of pub
lishing letters from their own correspondents,
containing statements destitute of es en a sem
blance of truth, and inserted for the men• pur
pose of having something in the 'a-ay of sen
sation news with which to startle the public."
But the editor goes further, and says: If we
should avow our belief that much of thi
respondence is written of /wow, inbtead of the
places where it bears date, probably we should
not be very wide of the fact " It i- well that
country renders should understand some of th,
freaks of •• metropolitan " entert.ri,e in the
management of newspapers.

Dickens Does Not Ile—visit the Unitet
A letter from London 58 y that Mr. T
Evans, of New York, who recently went 1.
London to persuade Mr. Dickens to re-visi
this country on a reading tour, and who offer
ed him most magnificent terms, has not rue
ceeded. Mr. Dickens, it appears, cannot of
ford, at any price, to leave England (and '•.11
the Year Round") for the time which his
ages and tour would occupy.
Dr. fl. L. Leaf, the able and intelligent
agent, in Philadelphia, for the. Galway and New
York Mail Steampacket Company, has com
municated to the press the frdlbwing intelligence
just received at New York by the mail <teami•r
Juno: The Great Eastern, the wonder of the
commercial world, takes her place in the Gal
way live and sails from Galway on September
15th. She is expected to make her passage to
New York in six days."
To E bolters to the Democratic organization
in Illinois last fall, who numbered five thou
sand votes to the regular Democrats ono hun
dred and twenty-two thou:and, propose to the
latter that the delegation to the national con
vention, at Charleston, ho equally divided be
tween the two sets. :The regulars say they
will give the bolters, if they will ,return into
their ranks, their proportionate share of the
delegates; that is, as they have polled one
twenty-fourth part of the votes, they have one
twenty-fourth of the delegates. Illinois has
twenty-two delegates. This will give them
(the bolters) two-thirds of a delegate.

Mr. Editor :—1 see by your paper, that you
Ipor the nomination of Stepheri4. Douglas for
the Presidency. No objection can be made to
'this, for Mr. Douglas is a fearless, faith ful Dem
:crat ; and his doctrines on the absorbing theine
of the hour—the government of the Territor
les—seems to me to he .eamd and safe.
,But, can hob sol,,ted in IMO? and if se
lected, is his position SUCh as. will 'permit the
cordial brothorl eel the Democratic party
in the next contest '."l'llose are the first
and best considerations that, present them
selves to the mind of every Doraocrat who de
sires the success of the party—and what Dem
ocrat does not
It cannot be denied that the position of Mr.
Douglas in Pennsylvania is most unfortunate
for his projectF. at Charleston. Some of his
ppo rters here, have helm\ ed in the most ab
surd way, and have done, and are doing much
to impair him. The editor of the Philadel
phia Press is the chief of the unsafe and dam
aging counsellors of Mr. Dmiglas here, and it
can do no harm to urge the fact upon his at
tention; although it is known and felt by ev. , ry
true and thoughtful friend Mr I.as
Pennsylvania.
I have not the time to billow to of
the Buchanan and Forney quarrel, nor the taste
for such unprofitable employment—it may be
called to mind, however, that the Press was
established some time before Mr. Douglas felt
it to be his duty to differ with the Administra
tion, The difference between the Senator
front Illinois and Mr. Buchanan, wide and
deep though it may have been, was rendered
much wider, deeper, and more personally bit
ter than it would otherwise have been, by the
conduct of the Philadelphia Press.
If the Lecornpton affair had not arisen,
what difference in principle could have grown
up between the editor of the Press and the Ad
ministration 7 Verily it was a god-send fur
that newspaper and its editor that it could
espouse the side of Douglas, and appear to bat
tle for a sound principle, while it was chiefly
continuing its quarrel with Mr. Buchanan.
Rut sound Democrats cannot permit this
quarrel to unsettle the usages and discipline of
the party. This great organization of ours was
not institued for the benefit of the Administra
tion of the hour, nor for those who are privately
and personally aggrieved at its action in the dis
tribution of its favors. Thegreat men of the par
ty cAre nothing for these trilling affairs. There
fore it cannot be borne that the State tick et, now

Not the least vratifyi rig rilAu It „r the
election of this state I:1 the fact that John J.
Crittenden will be succeeded in the United
State. , Senate by n Democrat. Already SOVOIIIi
journals, In various portions of thn
hay, presented the names and claims
of distinguished gcntleriwn, any one of whom
will fill the exulted position with honor and
dignity. We, too, have am preference, and in
presenting our choice, we do not pretend to
detract one lota from the pretensions of other
gentlemen, whose name; have been mentioned
in this connection.
For the tirq time in a period of thirty years
Kentueky's voice in the United States Senate
will be liernoi.ratir
Tho Logislatu ro that cot
vones at Frankfort in DeceMber next,will elect
the suceeisor of Mr. Crittenden. To that Leg
islature we present the name of John C. Breek
inridge, (in of the most graceful, eloquent,
and convincing orators Kentucky has ever pro
duced; beyond all question the brightest star
in the political firmament.; a gentleman of
,trict morality: the very pink of chivalry and
soul of honor, he would take the lead in the
Senate, and once more Kentucky would occu
py the proud position of having furnished the
most accomplished gentleman, the greatest
statesman, and the most eloquent orator to the
National Council of the people. It is not our
purpose, at this time, to detail the claims of
Mr. Breckinridge upon the It.•mocracy of
Kentucky. That is a '•labor of love" which
we will reserve until another time. We simply
desire to put his name before the people as one
worthy to be trusted and honored by them.

In a little while the clown came up to the
group of women outside the door, and leaning
in all attitudes against the sides and steps of the
wagon.
•' Well, has ho come ?"
" Yes,„_hts has been in this quarter of an
hour."
“ Wht did he say '!”
"Oh !\, she'll do,' he says, didn't her' said
one of theM, turning to another for confirma
tion.
. Ile soon left, and his voice was heard shout
log some old witticiiffirof the ring as though
there was no such thing us sick wives and doc
tors in the world. In a few minutes more he
came again quite out of breath from a last sum
mersault, the approbation of which was still
heard. Seeing the door partly open he entered,
and his face Inokedjoyous, as the wail of a child
greeted him.
" Which is it? A boy ?"
Ves," said Jenny.
The answer was unheard by him, for there
—stretched out in death—lay the mother.
Contrary to the doctor's expectations the acci
dent and premature delivery had caused her
death.
Yes! There she lay; the hollow sunken
s6—made unnaturally bright by the traces
or rouge upon her cheeks—the jaws fallen.
Death was evidently there and he saw it. She
with whom he had hoped to share all the cares
and joys of life ; now that the only difference
they had was removed. She was dead ! The
man seemed stunned. A strange pair they
looked; he in the motley and paint of his call
ing ; she—dead
"Bear up, Bill," said Jenny, approaching
him with the child; "ft's a buy, Bill," and
she wanted it. to be called after you."
The man seemed not to hear, but, walking
up to the bed, and taking one of the dead hands
in his, kissed it gently, as though afraid of wa
king her; and then, as though his loss had just
been realized, muttered •• Dead dead:" and
lay down, his face close to hers, kissing the
fast cooling lips with frantic earnestness.
"Dead—dead—dead I" still came between his
choking sobs. To him the women moving to
and fro in offices about the child, were not; to
him, useless was the doctor's farewell. "Dead
—dead—dead:" and the heaving chest and
bursting eye-balls found relief in tears.
"There, don't take on so, Bill!" said one,
trying to raise him up. "Don't take on so
hard, Bill:"
She might have as well spoken to the box on
which he half sat, half leaned, as he hung over
his dead wife. They then tried to close her
staring eye, but a look which appalled them
shook their nerves too much to allow of a sec
ond trial. A great noise now attracted them
to the door.
What's the matter now ""
" Matter enough !" said a harsh, Grating
Ace. There's Chapman so drunk he can't
go in, and Rill's skulking, beenuse his wife's

" Here, Bill, I do," said the voice ut the

Jenny the child to one of the women,
toek him by the arm and led him to the

The:man took the proffered flask, and drank
deeply.
" Well, you will go, Bill, will your said
ps.
"0, yes, 1 will go," said pill.
They left the wagon,and the repeated rounds
of applause showed that the public was satis
fied. The clown was never more witty, never
more agile. Somersault after somersault:leap
after leap was taken with a wreeklesiness that
nothing could equal; again and again the en
core, of the elite, and the bravos of the vulgar,
spUrred his exertions. At last it ended, and
the quadrille came on. Tho clown left the
ring with the plaudits ringing in his cars, and
came to the wagon to find—Alas what!
At the conclusion of the quadrille those in
the wagon heard acry.
." What is it 7" said the man, now in his old
position, elose to the body, with -her hand
locked in his, and his eyes fixed on her face.—
" What, is that 7"
"They are calling for her, said Jenny,
pointmg to the form on the bed.
There was a lull, and then a long thunder
of calpping hands and stamping feet, rose and
died away.
"Whai is that last?" asked the woman hold
ing the child, of a person entering.
•. ! they called for the Queen, and Whips
made a speech and said she was rather unwell,
and could not appear,' but would most likely
be better to-morrow, when she .would' again

" Well, my dears, , ' , Baid the doctor at the
supper table, to his children. " How did you
like it?"
" 0! we did notsee the Queen, father."
•• No !"
"No, not at all; the man in the ring said
she was not well, but would be there to-mor
row, and the clown was good, father, in the
scone of the savage."
Was he, my dear ? Do you know wh:v
you did not seo the Queen ?"
" No I"
" Well, then, I will tell you. Because she
