Douglas•--Forney, We copy the fullowing article from the Rates, the organ of Judgo puuglas as Wash ington: The Philadelphia Press of Saturday, in noticing the recent letter of Judge Douglas, remarks i "He saes himself upon the recognized and principles of that party, and although. its abstained from saying the word, the whole fiscw ,f his communization is to the effect that ma* Ae doctrines of a great political party are rejected and betrayal, it is idle to plead in its behalf the skeleton of a were organization." Mr. Forney would thus cons cy the impres sion that Judge Douglas has absolved himself from WC allegiance to the Democratic party, and is in rebellion to the Charleston Conven tion. As far as we arc advised, Judge 'hou ghs has never 'for a moment entertained a notion manifesting such a purpose. No intention of the kind is expressed or implied In anything that he has said or writ ten, lie has merely stated that, in case a platform is not adopted at Charleston in har mony with his own opinions and views, he would not be disposed to accept the Presiden tial candidacy. It has been the invariable rule, in Democratic national conventions, to first make the nomination and afterwards pre pare the manifesto of the piny. This mani festo is submitted to the nominee for his ae ceptance. If he disapproves of it, as a matter of course he would decline the honor confer red upon him. But would it not be ridicu lous to suppose that because he could not, conscientiously support all the conditions therein contained, he would array himself anipt it, as a member of the party with which he bad been associated from early manhood? Judge Douglas professes to be devoted to the principles of the Democracy, and we un derstand that be asserts, in the most positive terms." that in no conceivable contingency, indeed in no possible eventuality, can he be influenced to bestow his vote adverse to those principles. Under any circumstances. he will contribute his aid to the support of the can didate who stands upon a platform which 'may have bat a solitary objectional stipula tion in it, rather than to the support of aglut.

An Appropriate Nam e.—A company of Volunteer soldiers, composed of negroes, is being organised in Harrisburg. The name of the Company is to be Cameron Guards, No. 2," in honor of Gen. Cameron. As the General is now a Black Republican, and a candidate for President, the name of the oumpany is quite appropriate. Settled.—Tho papers aro discussing the time to catch trout and eat them.

Their story of " fay Democrats indicted " for illegal voting at Leavenworth, is sufficiently answered by the facts stated by the Leavenworth Herald, that there has been no session of the Grand Jury in that county sjncs the election, and plat'! Republican judges presided over the ballot boxes in every Ward in the city." The truthils, Black Repnblicanism in and nut of Kansan wan awfully disappointed by the voice of the ballots nt the recent election in that Territory.

We can stand it if the people can." Defying tho Germane. The German Republicans denounce Mas sachusetts, and demand, as the price of their continuance in the Republican party, that her delegates should be refused admittance to the next Republican National Convention.— To these threats the Boston Mar and Ike replies : As for excluding the Massaclinsetts dele gates from the National Contention unless they repudiate the two years' amendment, all we hire to say is: I,ei Ike Conreutlon try U. The Massaehnsette delegates would probably not leave alone, and those who urge such a proposition will And that a Massachusetts Re publican is as good as a Gerutao one, and they will find, else, that Massachusetts will take no step backwards in this or on other proposition she can honestly and properly mai :dein . We say again that we have no unkind feel ing towards the German voters of this coun try. At the same time. Massachusetts will permit no one, native or foreign, living beyond her boundaries, to dictate terms to her. Let it be known, row and forever, that if the Western Repolilimns submit their party and themselves to be lorded over by a tow Gorman voters, that they will break up their organ ization in their own States, and sow the seeds of another A tunrivan party, w hich will exert a power mire vast than those who now tra duce Massnehusetta to obtain favor of the Ger mans have the retnotest idea of.

Vro-hope we shall hear no more of this kind of talk. Black Republican Vagaries. The vagaries of Black Republican legislation have been strikingly exhibited by a recent movement in New Hampshire. There is a conflict between the Mayor and Aldermen of Manchester in regard to appointments, the Mayor being a Democrat and selecting city officers from his own party, which the Alder men, a majority of whom are Itepublicansf; refine to confirm. To mend this state of things. the Republican Legislature propose to go to the root of the matter and change the very foundation of municipal organisation, by cznferring the appointing power upon their brother Republiams, the Aldermen.— This step, if consummated, will prove of las ting mischief in time to come. The example will prove most pernicious. Southern Sentiment. The Charleston, S. C., Mercury objects to making the re-opening of the Slave-Trade an issue in the politics of this country ; because it would not be safe to revive the trade in the present relationship of the South and North ; because it is now impracticable and ido, and because it is a mischievous issuo—an issue regarding which there may well be a difference of opinion, and which is no test of soundness to Southern institutions. It says wisely, " as a practical living issue, on which to turn the politics of the &milt, vie regard the re opening of the Stave-Trade as a very fire brend, fraught with mischief and danger.— And in this point of view we are, and have been, from the beginning, atrongly opposed to its being used." air' The country would Pow be in a de. plorelde condition, if it were not fur the God send of the frequent and largo roceipta of sold from California." So say all the Oppo sition papers. Very well! Through what instrumentali ty was it that the United States acquired Cal ifornia t TIIAT OF THE DSMOCRATIC PARTY, opposed as they were at every step that led to tbo asquisition by those who now constitute the Opposition, The Democrats were for the annexation of Texas, the Oppo sition agaiwst it.

It is undoubtedly true, as your letter to Mr. Lc ('lore states, that France asserts claims to the military senice of nacre Frenchmen, of curtain aces, found in France. Indeed, the laws of France are peculiarly stringent in this respect, not only by reason of the coin preliensi%eness of the system of enroltuent fur military conscription, but because certain de crees of the first Napoleon. still in force, im pose severs penalties en Frenchmen natural ized atirmul without authorization of the Em peror. But similar pretensions arc asserted by many, if not most other governments of Europe. I take it for granted, however, that in re ferring to these facts, all which flue depart ment intended to do was to state them as taco, not to conoode their reasonableness or justice. I understand thitt the doctrine of perpetual and absolute allegiance), from which as a source and denial of the right of emigration flows, is not admitted by the United States ; that the assertion of the right 01'5E4f-expatria tion, whether to the United States or there (min, is one of the nrinei plea of the fundamen tal public law of the whole U n i o n, and of each one of the States •, that the right of emigra tion is of universe] natural law; that the real question in every Pooh came is one of eireum standee and conditions for the reconcilement of the getters! with individual interest; . ; that these conditions are good faith, discharge of subsisting obligations to the society 104, and consummated expatriation in filet; and that in all our; intercourse with foreign gorern• manta thake doctrines always have been hith erto, and vt, till continuo to be, maintained by the United States.

Retrenchment in the Poat-Offico De partment. The statement that the postal revenues are defrauded a million of dollars annually by forged or Nino stamps, is entirely unfounded. The story orginated In New York or Wash. ington, and was no doubt designed to disere• dit the management of the Post OfficeDepert ment. Mr. llovr perseveres in the work of curtailing the expenses of the Departmerit, and hie rigid economy, while it provokes the sneers of those who are determined not 'to re cognise Manumit, extorts commendation front the most able minds among the Opposition. The correspondent of the North American, in referring to the suldset, says : In this connection, it is only proper to say that the efforts of Mr. Holt in lopping off the excrescences which had spread over the pos tal service, in reducing useless tied extrava gant expenditures, in resolvinf something like order out of chaos, andremoving supernumerary officerF, are en tied to public t recognition and credit. lie el tered upon his i r thankless task, giving at once earnest of a purpose to introduce practical and thorough reforms, which have been since illustrated in a most beneficial and satisfactory manner.— It certainly does not become till/MC who have heretofore complained of the wnstefielnesv iti this department to sneer or carp at efforts which are intended to introduce a necessary and wholesome retrenchment.

I;ut, al.ove all, on this day should recur to ; the mind of every citizen the duties which he owes to his country. The spirit of unity and harmony should be invoked. Whatever may be said to the contrary, it is a fact, that with in a brief period of years, musses hare been nt work that must, if not chocked, endanger the future progress and harmony of the coun try. We arc not as national in feeling as we should be. We hare been becoming extreme ly sechoual in all our ways and doing., and one portion of the country has been invoked against the other. It is to bo feared we are not IA regardful as we should be of the eon stitottonul obligations resting upon us. The tendency of our time is aut r entire disregard of law and order, and a disposition to take the laws into our hands. This cannot mut. The eafky of this country depends upon a just ao knowledgement of the rights of all its citi zens, and a faithful discharge of duty as citi zens af a common country..

Coulson followed them out; upon getting into the yard, George used very harshianguago towstds Chronis ter, when ho knocked i.im down, upon which Wm.
