DEMOCRATIC TICKETS;
The regular Detwieratie tickets 1,1- the
Twenty-First and Twenty-Second Congres
sional districts, aro now ready and may be
obtained at the office of the Morning Post,
corner of Wood and Fifth Streets.
OUR. WiStEKLY
The Weekly Pott may he had to-day at
our counting room in wrappers ready for
mailing. It contains all the foreign, domestic,
commercial, local, and political news of the
day. In clubs of five, our mammoth weekly
costs but one dollar per year to each sub
scriber.
THE STATE TICKET
Our Democratic exchanges from all quaro
ters of the State, speak in the Moir eMiOur
aging terms of the prospects of our candi
dates on the State Ticket. They are unex
ceptionable men in all respects, and will
command the vote of every real Democrat in
Pennsylvania.
AT WORK
The Democrats are at work with a will to
insure the success of our ticket, Meetings
well attended are held in different parts of
the county, and the enthusiasm is irwreas
ing every day.
In the Twenty Second District the work
goes bravely on. The true hearted Democrats
of the District will vote to a man for Capt.
Birmingham, and net for the Know Nothing
despiser of Democrats—Williams. The Des
mocracy of the district will be true to them
selves and to their party.
IN the Twenty-Second District no man, who
is a Democrat, can consistently vote for Thom
as Williams, a Know Nothing and a Black
Republican, with such a Democrat in the
field as Capt. John Birmingham. The can
didate who refuses to vote for Capt. Birming
ham need not ask for Democratic support.
Those who wish to he supported as Demo
crats are bound to give Democrats their
support.
Til True Pres.s is now mainly devoted to
attempts to get Mr. Williams out , f scrapes,
which he is continually getting into. Mr.
Williams started into the campagn by de
nouncing everybody who did not agree NS ith
him, and closes it by continually apologizing
fur his own sins. Poor Thomas !
IT 18 said that Mr. Thomas Williams ex-.
Deets to receive a'` free pass " , up Salt River on
Tuesday next. He claims the right to du Eu
as a " private individual," inasmuch as the
people do not desire his services as a Con.
gressman in the Twenty-Second District.
rT is with difficulty that the managers keep
Mr. Williams stimulated up to the sticking
point as the dap of his defeat approaches.
We have more than once heard it stated that
he wishes, even at this late hour, to decline
the contest. We hone the managers will not
permit him to back out. The election woul , l
be like the play of Hamlet with the part of
Hamlet omitted, without Thomas in the field.
MR. WILLIAMS does not deny travelling on
a " free pass," but says he earned it, yet over
and over be denounced editors for using them
who earn them ten times more honestly and
honorably than any lawyer in the land. Mr.
Williams has narrowed himself down into It
very small potato, and is vainly endeavorim:
to get out at the little end of a very small
horn.
WE have been told that Mr. Williams says
he is fairly sick of the present political cam
paign. We do not wonder. He has destroy
ed a fair professional business as a lawyer in
the vain hope of going to Congress, and now
that he sees defeat inevitable it is very natl.;
ral that he should feel a little sick at his ruin
ed hopes and ruined prospects.

Mrs. Bayne made her second appearitnee
last evening in Knowles' play of " Love " in
which she enacted the part of the " Countess. —
Her performance was marked by all its usual
excellencies, and excited a genuine response
of feeling from her audiences. Her beauty
and grace of manner at once claim fur her
high expectations which are never disaps
pointed during the pr.i.4ress of the play. As
an actress, her cultivated taste and excellent
appreciation of the character she represents,
fully come up to tiie standard of the highest
art. It is to be regretted that this great ars
tiste should be so little known in our city,
her present visit being her first star engages
meat here, the more so as it is likely to he

in the west and south, she proceeds to Europe.

SPEECH OP SENATOR DOUGLAS AT
In tlu course of his speech at Henry, Mar
shall county, Illinois, on Sept. 2.4)th, - Sen.
ator Douglas, having had his attention
called to the fact, that he had procured the
grant of land from the general government to
the State for the erection of the Illinois Cen
tral Railroad, by Mr. Dawson, thus alluded
to it and to a charge made against him, that
he is in a conspiracy with the Central Rail
road to procure its release from the 7 per cent.
tax :
It is true, he said, that I voted for and exert
ed every energy that I could command for three
years to procure the passage of an act granting
to Illinois public lands to aid in the erection of
the Central Railroad. The success of the pro
ject has had a happy and a beneficial influence
upon the prosperity of our State. All of you
old settlers, who were residents of the State be
fore that act passed, cannot fail to remember
that there was an enormous debt hanging over
Os, on which we could nct ray the interest, and
y a w no hope of ever being able to discharge the
principal, that tlio ilwe credit had sunk to tho
lowest, point, :10.1 that the taxes were greater
than we could beisr. That grant cf land to Illi
nois re-established our State credit, and in a
short time brought our State bonds from sixteen
cents on a dollar, at which they were then held,
up to par.
Capital rushed in, seeking investments in rail
roads and other public improvements and pri
vate enterprises, and now we stand financially
unexcelled, if not unrivalled, by any other State
in the Union.
And here permit me to notice one of the mali
cious rumors that my enemies are disseminating
through the community to my injury. I learn
that the report has been industriously circulated
that I am in concert with the Illinois Central
Railroad to secure the release of that road from
the State of the 7 per cent. which, by the char
ter, it is bouud to pay forever into the treasury
of the State. I desire to say t) you that the
charge in basely fake in all its parts, and no
man can point to ono particle of proof in c uuneo•
tam with it, or dare rise and assert it in my
presence.
A man in the crowd.—The Democrats charge
you with it.
Mr. Douglas—l understand the kind of Dem
ocrats who do so. They are the same men who
have been employed to electioneer for the Abo•
lition ticket under• the name of Democracy.
(Immense applause.) They are the agents of
Abraham Lincoln and his allies, who are circula
tine these base falsehoods.
A Black Republican hero called out that he
had seen the charge in a Danite paper published
in Cnicago.
Mr. Douglas—l have no doubt you saw it.
there, because that is a paper sustained, support
ed and edited by Abolitionists. There is not a
man living who can show that 1 have ever been
the apnt or attorney of the Illinois Central
Railroad for any purpose whatever, or that I
ever rec-Ived a dollar from them for any services
I rendered. (Cheers.) Can the candidate of
the Republican party, Abraham Lincoln, say the
Faroe thing 7 (-No, no.) Can you Republicans
deny that this day and this hour your candidate
Abraham Lincoln, is the agent and attorney of
the Illinois Central railroad, making stump
speeches on its money ? (Cheers.) Can you
deny that from the day the company has been in
existence, Mr. Lincoln has drawn support from
it by acting as its attorney and agent? Can yen
deny that he received ,from the company a
single fee of $5,000 for procuring a degree re
leasing its property from taxation in McLean
county, thus taking the side of the company
against the people, whose votes he is now_asking ?
If you doubt it, go look at the reco: cis of the
McLean county court, and you will find the judg
ment recorded. Can you deny that Abraham
Lincoln was the agent and attorney employed by
the corporators of the company to lobby before
the Illinois State Legislature and procure the
best terms for them and the worst for the State
in the grant of their charter ? If you cannot
deny these things,- it does not look well for you
to make this charge, false as it is, against me,
who was 'never connected with any of these
transactions. It looks like the cry of "stop
