FOR PRESIDENT IN 1SG0,
STEPHEN .A.-DOUGLAS.
Of the United States.
FOR VICE-PRESIDENT,
ANDREW JOEITSOIT,
Of Tennessee. '
To-day we place at oar mast-he ad, ds a
candidate for the office of Precide.it of the
United States, the name of Stii'iiex A.
Douglas, the brightest star ia the politi
cal firmament! A man who is of, and
has ever been for the people; a man
whose every act, private and public, has
been to aid in maintaining that great
principle which nerred our forefathers to
strike for freedom.and upon which is based
American liberty and American institu
tions; but which, unfortunately, tco many
prominent politicians have cither lost
sight of, cr else compromised in their
ambitious strides to position and power;
ia man who has never faltered in his ad-
rocacy of the rights cf the people, though
beset on erery side by bitter and unre
lenting foes, even of his own party, who
had proscribed him for daring to be hon
est, in firmly adhering to the principle by
which that party had been elevated ; a
man who discards extreme doctrines, and
clings to the Constitution ; the only
course to be relied upon to perpetuate the
Union, and enable all sections of our be
1 loved country to move harmoniously on, as
the beacon star of freedom, to the world.
; STErnrir A. Docci.as had the ability to
inaugurate a great principle, and possess
I cd the nerve to follow it up, until he has
. made for himself a name among his fel
; low Americans, which cannot fail to be
- as enduring as the granite hills of his
own native State. History will accord
him a full page, even though the "Great
Leveler" thould claim him to-morrow.
The ptople from the North and the
South; from the East and the West;
from the center to the circumference, call
for Judge Dotclas to become the next
! incumbent cf the Executive Chair of the
' nation. Shall their wishes be consulted
; and gratified ;'or will political wire-work
era refuse him a Conventional nomina
tion? We shall see.
We may not, should Mr. Douglas be
- a candidate in 1SG9, be placed in a posi
tion to aid even by our vote. 13ut we
i hope such will be the case; we hope
' Nebraska will, before the next Presi
dential election, have a place among the
States of the Union, and her sons be
permitted to aid in elevating so great
and worthy a statesman and patriot as
STtriiEx A. Douglas to the highest
position within the gift cf the American
people. Be this as it may, we are desir
ous of manifesting our admiration of the
man, his principles and his labors; and
do so in placing his name as above. We
consider the people of the Territories
, are under peculiar obligations, to at least
. manifest an appreciation of his labors in
their behalf. No man has ever been so
bold in defense cf their rights; no man
' has been instrumental in accomplishing
' io much for them, and no man can be el
' i-vated to the Presidency who will exert
every effort to still accomplish "great
good" for them. We shall endeavor to
tkeep him before the people."
, We also place the name of Senator
Johssox, as a Candidate for the office cf
Vice President of the United States. We
do so for a number cf reasons. First;
Axdkew Jonssox of Tennessee, 13 the
firm, steadfast and immovable friend, and
advocate cf the rights of the laboring
man! He is n living example of what a
man may accomplish for himself by perse
verance and industry, under the privileges
of uch a' form, of government as ours.
Not unlike David of old, u ho, f rem a hum
ble' shepherd, afdse to the position, cf a
a Hebrew King, Andrew Joiixox,from
hataiLr's .board, without even the rudi-
ncnts cf a common school, education -to
"joncncG'itirrLa advanced, step by
itepi until to-day, he occupies a proud po
rtion in" the Senate of the United States;
i position second only to President. No
nan from so cbicure a position and with
o few advantages surrounding in the
ommencement, has succeeded in atlain
ng so lofty a height. It is said that he
earned to read after a man grown was
lught by hi3 wife, while engaged labor
ng at his trade. He was first elected a
leraber of the 'Leiilature,lhento Con
ress where he served two orthrecses
ions'to the entire satisfaction cf hi& c :n
utuents, when he was called tofi&tdie
iubanatcrial Chair of the State; after
hich hs wis almost the unanimous choice
f all parties for the position he now so
.editably occupies in the Senate.
Mr. JohMca was the originator cf
hat is known, as a "Homestead Bill"
is ideas in regard to which are extren e-
liberal and calculated, could they be
lopted, to confer incalculable benefits
oa that class cf our felbvy countiy
cn, who by political most mea are fcr
jtten. We heist the names cf Douglas JLid
H&e.j .s cur choice cf all the men m
3 ncuca for the offices cf President
1 Vice President; men we would rati
vete fcr, cud aid in electing than any
:;rx. We Lavs net even a personal
laintstivS- with either. U:l hive ben
Icre observer cf their axis and pro
gress for years, and we believe in addi
tion to many other reasons, that their elec
tion to the'offices mentioned would re
flect greater credit upen th-3- country, and
tend in a greater degr?e, to allay section-,
al strifes which threaten detraction of
the Union than could ".he election cf any
other two men in the' nation. They would
represent kr.h recti :u3 of 'the country;
both are conservative, union-loving men
whose principles and hearts are co-extensive
with the institutions and bound
aries of our Heaven favored country. . .
"Stop TIiief" Tfce "Only Itvo, Pa
pers In Nebraska" "BoMIng
Arcana." . : ;
We have been greatly amused amus
ed did ;vs xay Ieisgusteit is n better
word at the course of the "o.ny tiro pa
pers in jYebraska" since the election, in
their efforts to create an impression that
no fraud had been committed at Ft.
Kearney in favor of General' Estabrook.
They remind us cf the cowardly boy who
in passing through a strip of woods, . kept
up a lively whistling, to keep off a scare;
cr -the thief who himself cries ,(stop
thief" in order to detract attention. .The
game "cut West" has been played so
much stronger than locked for, that thpy,
with others, have become freightened,
and must needs "play off" desperately,
in order, if possible,-to smother , the ef
fect upon the public mind. It won't do,
gentlemen ; the people of Nebraska are
not sufficiently gullible for all that' ' You
may succeed in imposing upon them now;
but a "day of reckoning" is not far dis
tant! "Stick a pin there!" :
Where these papers are known -here
in Nebraska such balderdash as that
appearing in their columns since the el
eclion, is understood and taken at its true
value: They are written nut for "home
consumption," and ten to compromise
the honor and character-of the settled
portion of Nebraska, at the expense of
bolstering up rotten and crumbling dern
agogucs, which fact3 render them far
from creditable to the fulminators.
We are all aware that of late years,
and more especially in new countries like
ours, a great deal cf what we in Nebras
ka term "sculldvggery" is practiced by
all parties at elections: such, for instance,
as smuggling in the vote of one or more
who are not quite "of age ;"' or who may
lack a few days1 residence of bein.a
"qualified voter," and the matter is over
looked. But when it comes to one precinct.
and that over two hundred miles in the
interior of Nebraska, casting two hundred
and thirty-eight votes, and they all for
one max, and that too in so important a
contest as Delegate to Congress, the
mere idea of such a thing is preposter
ous ; an ' insult upon the intelligence of
any people to ask them to believe it. It
is almost impossible that there should be
a community,' or precinct, on the face of
God's earth, consisting of so large a
number of people as 233, and they all
think and vote alike. But to the point
'more particularly.
These "only two papers in Nebraska"
are now crying out "fraud in Richardson
and Pawnee counties, and Peru, Nemaha
county, by Daily's friends !" Be it known
these are the most densely populated rural
localities in Nebraska. ' Hear what one
-sthe "big-toad-in-the-puddle" of the
only two papers in Nebraska." s&ys in
regard to Peru in thi3 county. We need
not ask even the Estabrook supporters in
this county, how they relish such unmiti
gated "fabrications," on the part of their
organ. We know many of them to be
highly incensed. Here is the extract : '
"Peru, the place of Daily's residence,
contains about half a dozen houses, and
we are' told can give about fifty legal
votes : yet 173 votesmostly for Daily
are returned from that precinct.' We axe
informed, on creditable authority, that
men from Missouri were continually
crossing the river and voting there all
day."
"At Falls City Precinct, Richardson
county, a place colonized by Jim Lane
abolitionists, and where, when the vote
was taken for relocating the County Seat,
it was notorious that more than half the
I votes given were from men win live. in
Kansas, yet only about a hundred were
cast;' at the late election for Daily, over
one hundred and seventy v&ies are return
ed as having been polled, and about nine
tenths of them for Daily. Teams, we are
told, were kept busy in transporting voters
from Kansas all day, the result of which
is apparent in the vote.
"Pawnee county is sparsely populated,
containing m all. nrobablv about. 75 souls-
But Pawnee, nearly a week after returns
were in from every other county, sends in
102 majority for Daily. The inference
is that some of Daily's ardent friends had
kept the voteJL-ack to ascertain how many
votes were wanting to elect him, and then
hadn't 'fixed itrhigh enough."
Why,' bless your ignorant soul, Robert
son, Peru has crcrterf tiii.es "half a doz
en houses ;" is a rapidly improving point;
the adjacent country is all occupied by
thriving, industrious farmers, who,1 in
many instances, have- had'for tnro years
past. an hundred acres each under-cultH
vation ; and the country and town both
have made very handsome progress the
past year. The precinct a year ago, at
our county election, cast HO votes. And
again, we will further vent-are that at no
precinct ia Nebraska was there less ex
citement, and everything conducted mere
honorably and fairly, than at Peru, , -
"Men from Missouri continually erod
ing tha river and voting." Well, thatrs
the richest thing cf the season ! ' Jllissou
rians voting for Daily ! Why you, unpar
donable booby! Charge Daily in one pir-
a graph with being a "red mouthed aboli
tionist," and in the n?xt charge Missou
rians with coming over to Nebraska and
voting for him! That "cap3 the clir.ax !"
That Editor's friends ere nc true to hun
cr the cause he"': espouses, or they would ;
work hir.i with tnaffie-bit, gag-rein and .
upper, and be sure to examine well his
articles before they appear in pnnt.
Missourians voting for Daily I If this
was laughable matter, we should certainly
enjoy curself hugely at jhe sapiency of j
this editor cf one of the "only two papers
in Nebraska." ' Will somebody inform
him thvt!icsovricns have "pretty much:
quit" voting for abolitionists ? 1
As tojhe vote in Richardson and raw-
nee counties, and the character of their
citizens, the same may be said" We have
conversed with a number of citizens 'of
both those counties, who supported Gen.
Estabrook, who now are. irreccnciliably
incensed that the communities in which
they live should be so vilified as they have
been,' by these "only two papers in Neb
raska," since the election The fact is
those counties did not poll their .' full rote
did not poll as many as they did last
year ! Otoe and Douglas, the homes of
the "only two papers in Nebraska,", fell
far short of their last year's vote the
latter nearly 500 less than she casf tco
years ago.
We are perhaps giving the fulsome ar
ticles of the "only two papers in Nebras
ka" too much notice ; would pass them
unnoticed but for the effect they might
have at a distance, where the unscruple-
ousness and irresponsibility of those in
charge of the editorial departments of
those papers are not known. Here, at
home, where they are known, such "stuff"
creates! only feelings of contempt and
scorn towards the authors; and has as it
will always have with high-toned, honor
able people aa inevitable tendency to
damn in the end, any cause they may cs
pousc. ' ' , '.' " '
We regret that men should so- far for
get themselves in election excitements .
so far forget what is due the intelligence
and honor of the; people of; Nebraska, as
to resort to such fraudulent measures as
we cannot but believe has been practiced
al Ft. Kearney; and, worse than all, that
charges of fraud should be heaped upon
innocent portions, or sections of the Ter
ritory, as a means by which those frauds
are to be covered iip. Shame upon such
conduct ; shame upon men who will prac
tice or countenance it. The well-wish

&ucn an unsate, unwnoiesome course . cairt,nff melancholly announcement:
not prevail long among American citiz
ens, and cannot fail to rebound with dis
astrous effect upon- the -perpetrators, or
sanctionisls.
We had' hoped to be permitted to pass
this Delegate matter without being com
pelled to. controvert further with those of
our cotemporaries with whom we have dif
fered; but we will not, we cannot remain
a silent looker on when the citizens of our
Territory are being trifled with, and es
pecially when our neighbors are being
slandered and vilified. We care not
where a mean, contemptible act comes
from, we are bound to war against it ; and
when we cease to pursue such a course,
it will be when we have no tongue to
speak, cr hand to write.
The Insurrection at Harper's Ferry
Our exchanges contain little else . but
matter pertaining to the late insurrection
at Harper's Ferry, Virginia. Wc gave
last week the "gist of the whole matter."
It appears the treasonable movement was
one long contemplated by Brown and
other such spirits, and extended through
portions of most of the Slave States, but
fortunately prematurely exploded at Har
per's Ferry. Startling developments may
be looked for in the course of the trial of
those taken prisoners. ' Gerret Smith
and others of a like kidney will yet be
brought into the ring before the matter
be through with: The Virginia author!
ties, together with those of the United
States, are determined to ferret out the
whole affair.
It is to be regretted that poz lions of the
press in the country are disposed to make
political capftal out of this occurrence,
and thus still more array the sections of
country against each other. We don't
believe, corrupt as- they are, political
parties have had anything' to do with this
damnable deed. Sttch men as Garrison,
Smith, Phelps,' Foster, Fred. Douglas,
Old Brown, and , others, who ought to
havc.b'een hung years ago;, have always
considered themselves too pure for any
political party,- and consequently- have
kept themselves aloof from the prominent
organizations of the day.
There can be little doubt cf the guilt
of Brown and associates; in fact they do
not deny anything, They will be hung.
and no -one should complain of the penal
ty. Every effort too should be made to
find out each and every other person in
the least connected with.thij outbreak,
who, when convicted, should suffer a like
psnalty. ,-The New York Times, in
speaking cf this matter, very appropriate
ly says: '
"We cannot think the ferocious tone
generally held towards them by the
Southern Press likely to be cf service to
the Southern cause. It only tends to
make these men martyrs, and to screen
their enterprise from the just detestation
and abherenco which, it. everywhere in
spires. Probably strenuous efforts will be
made on the trial to trace this plot to its bXOU J

Jcdge Bates.
The "Whigs" of Lexington, Missouri,
have recently nominated Judge Bates as
a Presidential candidate.' The Missouri
Democrat thinks the Opposition Conven
tion cf the State will endorse his nomina
tion. But.kadds:
"Yet we feel assured" that his candida
cy would be altogether contingent on the
Union of the Opposition, He. would in
stantly retire from the position in which
the Whigs and Free-soilers of Missouri
will probably place him, unless their ac
tion should receive the sanction of. the
Republican parly. His name will not be
lent to those, if such there be. who con
template keeping a third party in .'the
field, or who refuse to admit that the ex
pulsion cf the National Democracy, from
power is the paramount duty of all good
citizens in the present critical situation of
affairs. He may consent to lead a united
host, but never a disaffected division."

Faran removed." :
.This completes the "line of ma.ryrs"
in this doomed State. First, the. Post
master at Cleveland was decapitated for
doubting the "immaculate conception" of
the Kansas Constitution. Soon after, the
Postmaster at Columbus found his head
rolling in the dust for. the same unpar
donable sin. Now the . Postmaster at
Cincinnati, is added to the list of politi
cal martyrs and the dismal record is com
plete. From the . Lake to the river the
bloody footprints of persecution are vis
ible, and the headless men are seen stalk
ing about like
"GhosU by moonlight,
Or goblins dd."
The freaks of "Old Buck" in the ad
ministration of his Executive power in
Ohio is so remarkable, that a brief his
tory seems demanded for the public good
First, we were appointed Post -Master

vices and sacrifices 'for the party and the
usefulness in future our position prom

place. Tom Miller was appointed at Co
lumbus in place of Tom Sparrow. Tom
Miller was afterwards removed for bein0'
a friend of Douglas, and Sam. Medary
was appointed. Sam.' Medary was af
terwards sent to Kansas, and Tom Mil
ler was re-appointed. It is said no;v that
Miller has got to walk' again, and Tom
Sparrow, the first turned out, will re
sume his old position. John L. Vattier
was the Postmaster at Cincinnati, and
allowed to slide to give place to Jarr.es J.
Farran the latter being the personal
and particular friend of Old Buck. Far
ranis now turned out'for his Douglas
proclivities, and Vattier turned in, who
is a good Douglas man as there is in the
State. .,.'.." ,
Who can sound such unfathomable mys
tery ? It is more inexplicable to us than
the Lecompton policy. Is the President
mad, or is he old ? . Is he mistaken, or is
he a mistake? What can be the next
farce in store for the patient and united
Democracy of Ohio. Is he under the
advice of such political bankrupts and
mad-caps as Mat Johnsin and Ma Mar
tin. Cleveland, Plain Dealer.

which he said : . - s . - . ; . . ' . . V .!
"He had heard it charged jhat the fif

the extension of slavery, nor with any to
prevent the people of a State or Territo
ry from deciding the question of its ex
istence or non-existence for themselves.
I happened to be in Congress when the
Kansas-Nebraska bill passed, and gave it
my voice and my vote, because it did what
I did, viz: It acknowledged the right of
the people of the Territory to settle the
question to suit themselves, and not be
cause I supposed, what I do not now be
lieve, that it legislated slavery into the
Territory. The Democratic party is not
a pro-slavery party; it is neither pro
slavery nor anti-slavery."
