ABRAHAM LINCOLN, OP ILLINOIS. , TOR VICE PRESIDENT, . HON. HANNIBAL HAMLIN. r MAINE. . - FOR GOVERNOR, 1I0N. ANDREW O. CURTIN, of Centre Co. ,:. HARD BUN. ' The ntter impotence and paralysis Into which the once proud and powerful Democratic par ty has fallen, is evinced in many ways, but in none more strikingly than in the character of its falsehoods. Who does not remember what calumnies were heaped upon Clay and Harri son, upon Seward and Fremont great, heavy, black lies that bad venom and sting in them t But their stock in trade has run down very low, and now they are dealing out little, con temptible, picayune absurdities and notions! In the two months that have elapsed since the Republican National Convention met at Chica go, although every exertion has been made, they have not been able to trump up any more serious accusation against Mr. Lincoln than a foolish story that he had three pairs of boots charged to the Contingent Fund of the House wbilo he was a Member of Congress but when the stationery account came to be examined by the clerk, no such item could be found charged to "honest old Abe," and so the Democratic editors have been forced to back square out of it, leaving no defamatory fable In circulation but the miserable invention that he had voted against furnishing supplies to our Army in Mexico during the late war. ' To show up this absurd fabrication, which Joe Lane, the Seccders' candidate for Vice President, repeated at a Breckinridge ratification meet ing in Philadelphia, we need only copy an ex tract from a speech delivered by the "little giant" in the Illinois Senatorial canvass . of 18-58..'. Io that speech Mr. Douglas said : : "I never charged him LincolD with voting against the supplies, in my life, because 1 know that he was not in Congress when they were voted. The war was commenced on the 13th day of May, 1846, and on that day wo appro priated in Congress ten millions of dollars and fifty thousand men to prosecute it. - During the same session we voted more men and more money, so that, by the time Mr. Lincoln en tered Congress, we had enough men and e nough money to carry on the war, and had no occasion to vote for any more." ; The deceiit men in the Democratic, party long ago abandoned this stale and paltry lie a gainst Lincoln none but the most reckless and unscrupulous man would repeat a false hood which has been so thoroughly exploded, and to do so only shows how hard run the or ators and editors of that party arc at this time. Kefc3E3 to SUPPORT it. lion. Richard Vaux, who heads the Democratic Electoral ticket in this state, has written a reply to the chairman of the Stato Central Committee, in which he refuses to approve the compromise plan proposed by that committee, and declines to sign a pledge in its favor. , He says that he considers himself under no obligations to comply with the demands of that organization and that, if elected, be will conceive it to be bis duty to vote for Douglas and Johnson and for no other candidates. Ocr County Convention. We trust that our friends throughout the county will proper ly consider the call published last week, and sec that there is a good turn-out to the Con vention. We hope to see every district rep resented. : The up-river townships will all have delegates here, and wo trust thoso down the river will be here in full force also. Though our prospects are growing brighter every day, it behooves every well-wisher of the party to bo on the alert and take part in the activo la bo s oi the campaign. " Organjiijjo. Wo aro pleased to hear thai the friends of Lincoln, Hamlin and Curtin aro organizing and forming "Wide-Awake Clubs" in some parts of our county. We understand Chat two e'ubs have been formed in Guclich township, one in Curwensville ona in Burn- side township, and that several more in other districts are about being orgauized. ' This is right. Let the good work go on, so that we may soon hear of clubs being formed in every township. Favorable results are always the effect of organization." " The Union will probably survive the success of Lincoln and Hamlin. Mr. Robert C. Scott said In the . Richmond ' Convention that Mrl beward , was a statesman, a plain, ; honest out spoken man, who meant, what ho said, and mereiore was infinitely : to. bo preferred to DougUs,' who equivocated, mystified, and de ceived.". Mr. Scott .belongs to the class that has already declared that the Union could not enduro the election of Seward. One evening last week President Buchanan, on the occasion" of a serenade given him at the Wbito House, made a regular ttump speech in favor of Breckinridge and Lane.. It is the first address of this character that has ever is sued from, trio portals of the Presidential man sion, and it is to bo hoped, for tho honor of the country, that it will be the last. .

Meagre as the telegraphic abstract of the new by the Arabia .is, it yet conveys assur ance that the movement for Italian indepen dence goes hopefully onward. Garibaldi aims at freedom for all Italy, and, therefore, wise ly wastes do more of his strength in Sicily, but prepares to move upon the mainland. But, as in Sicily, so in Naples, his chances of success depend greatly on the enthusiasm and firm bearing of his friends within ; and upon these it seems that he can count surely. Nat urally excited by the news of the success of the revolution in Sicily, and burning with the memory of years of tyranny, and of recent outrages, the Neapolitans aro upon the point of rebellion, and the Central Revolutionary committee had even dared to issue a procla mation calling upon the people to rise. To meet this condition of things, the King had on the one hand proclaimed the city In a state of siege, and on the other granted the quasi liberal constitution, which would have saved bis crown six moths ago, and inaugurated the tri color fag as that of the nation. The later succeedaneums will fail of their object. What was beyond hope before will be rejected now with scorn silent, if not expressed. . As to the former, it is a cheering sign for Garibaldi. Threatened men live long ; and cities placed under martial law are generally in a condition for which martial law is no cure. If it be dif ficult for the tyrant of Naples to control his capital itself, what can be do when Garibaldi thunders at his gates ? for be there he will, by hook or by crook in spite of the Neapoli tan fleet. There has ro announcement more favorable to Italian liberty been made than this of the extreme measures adopted at Na ples. For if the Neapolitans be in earnest as it seems they are, the severity of the restric tion will but make the outburst the more over whelming when it comes. It will come when Garibaldi moves toward Naples, and gives the royal forces to enemies to fight instead of oue. His success then is far from certain ; but should he fail, his cause will not. The heel of the tyrant will never again rest firmly on the neck of Italy. Our next European ad vices may be looked for with eager expecta tions. New York World. POLITICAL ITEMS. Foster's Home Organ Repudiates the Coalition Movement. The attempt to coerce the Democracy of the State into the support of a "double-headed" electoral ticket, will not take in old Westmoreland. The Greensburg Argus, the home organ of Henry D. Foster, calls it an "infamous proposition," and says : "This proposition cannot bo entertained for one moment. It is too infamous to be named. Thanks to an overruling Providence, and the firmness of the Baltimore Convention, the question of who is the Democratic candidate, is not an open one. That question has been irrevocably settled. There is but one Demo cratic candidate in the field, and that is Ste phen A. Donglas. The people had long sinc nominated him, and the Baltimore Convention only ratified it, or, in a legal phrase, recorded the verdict." Tue Democratic Press of Virginia is very unequally divided between the two parties formed out of the great body of the democ racy, there being, as far as ascertained, about twenty pspcrs flying at their mast-heads tho names of Breckinridge and Lane, whilst but four have run up the flag of Douglas and John son.
