The next day,' (p.ige 33,) Mr Adams moved to suspend the rules in oiJ.Tti ailow him to offer a resolution to virtually repeal t'.ic Atherton resolu tions, when Mr Bell dodged the vole ! We come now to the 2Gth Congress. At its open ing, Mr AVisc rose and snid, that "with a riew of preventing the stiii'o which had heretofore agit.ited the House and Country," he now took the earliest opportunity to move a suspension tt the rules of the House .or the purprose of submitting a resolu tion that in f uure all petitions fur the abolition of slavery ".-diould be considered as objected to," and laid on th ta Me without debate. The points which the boii i nits w ere driving at was to get Congress ,o admit, iiif jit l.tially, hy the reception of these pe-titii-i s una their reference to committees, that Con giess had power over the subject, and to open the tor f ) the agitation of the question. These were tiie objects at which they were driving, and Mr Bell was v. i-i i-g 'o giaiify them, for he immediately rose una i.njii-ivd wnether it v.oa'd be in order tor him to move a i amendment to the resolution of Mr. Wise, ' that all these petitions be referred to the CoinmitteeWbr the District ol Columbia without de bate and, being told that 4it would be wholly in it' with the original resolution, replied, then I will introduce a new resolution to this effect." .:r .ii-:ins expressed himself satisfied with Mr B's. plan, except tiiat he thought such petitions as did i.ot relate to slavery in the District should go to a . . ...

Mr ''. -il replied, that "it had always been his opin ion ii.i.t tne best mode of dispos:. g of these peti -t o. s w.-ul 1 be to refer them to a ci inniittce, and iioii' e it was that lie had proposed to introduce a re.-oltit.ron of the kind bcloie alluded to.'' Page H'J. lhc ujy following, Mr. Wis renewed his resolu tion to lay all ab ihlioii petitions on ihe table, and moved a suspension . f the luies in order to get his resolution oeiore tne House.

BREGKIN RIDGE & LANE. Some three weeks since, we took down the names of Breckiridge and Lane from the head of our col umiis. v e then stated that it wa.-j not oecause we had fnu.lt to fin:! with either of the g nt'.emen or their . . . ........ ,i principles, or that we felt them in any way unsuited for the h'ffh Posit-on which they are to fill ; but that we d sired union among the members of our ; glorious old party. U e have done every thing pos- ni'letto accomplish this ut we nnl -fc fn it less. We ould have placed at the head of our columns, the candidate most likely to defeat Lincoln, it mat- j not who that gentleman should be-for bad as j Mr Bell or M" Douglas are, they are far preferable! I P 7 P , tlons' ftl,l hfle and independent of party considera- come fully to the conclusion that ; none savo 11 1? P. 4 ' Iv VRI d V. AND LANE, can prerent the eleotion of Abe Dincoln, the Black I Republican. From the b-st and most reliable in j formation, Mr Breckinridge will carry every south- j era State, every one.

Let us cry out once more tq the noble old democ racy of Robeson, Bladen, Sampson, Richmond, Har pett, Moore, Chatham, and Cumberland, ftfld in fact, to all in the State. i'TO YOUR TENTS, O, ISRAEL ! Let your cjy be victory, Constitution, Union ! Our Eighty, Sacred and inviolable ! ! We trill die- fend them all with our dearest hearts blood! ! ! ISP" We have been permitted to see an extract of a letter from Washington Gity, to ope of our citizens. The writer is well knowu in political cir cles. He says : "The late elections in Maine and Vermont hava destroyed the prospects of Judge Douglas. It has been a crushing blow. The only hope now is in Mr. Breckinridge in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Mr. Douglas would undoubtedly withdraw, if he could do so with honor. He will be beat in Illinois by 10,000. DOUGLAS AT LAST A TRAITOR. We are sorry to be compelled, through duty and a desire to undeceive the people, to tell and pro claim to the world that S. A. Douglas, or Iu.ia.ois, is now stumping the United States, not to elect him self but to elect that black hearted Abolitionist, Abraham Lincoln, of Illinois. We do not make this assertion at randomwe do not make it be cause we with to do injury to the man. God forbid that we should pronounce such a sentance without HAVING PROOF, UNCONTROVERTIBLE tes timony of his treason to the whole nation. : We have admired Judge Douglas, and have thought hard that Democratic'papers should denounce him ; but we are compelled now, at last, to tell the facts which have forced us to declare utter and uncom promising warfare to him forever. s Mr Douglas, in a speech at Pittsburg,! Pa., in September 1859, made the following remarks: "The Republicans have no chance of sucies, ex cept in the dissensions of the democracy, ard while I would stand up for principle, and never yield it for the sake of harmony, yet, in order to preserve the principles of the party, I would surrender any per sonal prejudices und hostilities I might havfe.". These were his remarks then. But, at Reading and Harrisburg, week before last, what dojs he do? Why, in the face of the fact that Pennsylvania can not be carried without a union of the Bretinidge and Douglas democrats ; he boldly and scandalous ly denounces the union formed by the Dinocrats of the State to run but one.elcctoral ticket, Jlthough the party 'is about equally divided. Upln what ground can Mr Douglas, or his friends, jutuly his handing over the State of Pennsylvania to Ae Lin coin ? On nrir.cime? THEN THEY PREFEK THE I PRINCIPLES OF LINCOLN, to those o ickin-J acted chairmen of the Bell and Everett me-.t '.ridge!! Ming in the city of N. York, the at Cooper Institut 1 To show how hopeless it is now for any, save the J ' Black Republicans in Pennsylvania, we would say thnt Douglas does not expect to carry over 95,000 votes ; Bell and Everett not over 52,000 ; whilst Breckinridge will c-.irry about 150,000 upon the union ticket. . The whole vote of Pennsylvania is nbout 500,000. Here Mr Douglas hands pver the 27 votes of Pennsylvania for Lincoln, tnd with out them he could net be elected viriially Mr Senotor S. A. Douglas, who is now run inlhis State by Dick 3c Co., elects the first Black Republican President. Docs not this prove true his language to Burlingame of Massachusetts, when he told him J ' " " """i next President waslto come trom Illinois, , ami aito, that it would be a "glorious sight to see Oil Abe and . . . . . ,, t x it. i ....I...7Vjl . I I aOlllUUWIl IV&bkllVl w a... " " y rk m a t in 11 tit- ri i n t. r vti t tivnw r i.r . nil wt iir deny all this if he dare. We surely can lall upon him for a denial as he makes speeches eiery day. We were once disposed to doubt the ti up of the conversation with Burlingame, but his jnvn acts have made us believe it to be a fact. j This has not ended his treason : In his speech ; ew York at the great barbacue, hebrtgged that to 01d Virginia, and told them thkt if they . . . . . . . L . would secede because of the election of Lincoln he would whip them in, or hang them as high is Ilrmen And be also adds, to modify the affair out South that he would use all legal and Co?istitutioal means to hang Lincoln were he to interfere with ihe Cou- stitutional rights of the South. Mark tfy qualif cation. He would not ask for Law or Coistitution to force, tehip or hang the people of Virginh, should they succeed ; but, when he would go to kang Lin coln tor violating the rights of the South, he would examine the Constitutionality of the act ?r its le gality The South is to be massacreed without judge or jury, but Lincoln will only be executed by trial by jury, of course ! ! Men of the South, is there not enough in the a bove sentence, of treason and black hearted Black republicanism to curse the man forever? Where are his advocates, let them chalk the mark ! I But this ift not all. For fear ll.4 P4.Sjrlwi would still go lor Iireckiuridge, he put avetopon the Union in New York by the same speech,., thus handing over to Lincoln ajiain of 35 electoral votes for President, consummated. Thus has Douglas' treason been PERSONAL. WALK IN LEMONS ASD GET SQUEEZED Our erer watchful friend of the Winston Sentinel, gives goss to the Douglas con ention at Raleigh.

THE ELECTOROfTTHE THIRD We are in receipt of a letter from'Mr Allen our I elector, in which he wishes our papers to change bis appointments at rdizabetbtown and Whiteville to siij't those of Mr Dockery. We are truly surprised j the bulbhaaded obstinancy of Mr Dockery, inre- "sing 10 arrange witn Air Allen for the campaign, and we account lor it only upon the hypothesis that he fears the trusty steel of his honorable com petitor. He wishes to govern Mr Allen ; this he cannot do, although he will be met by that gentle man at every appointment, which does not conflict with his former published ones. Mr Allen will beat lijberty after next week, professional engagement. preventing his entering the canvass until after that time. Mr Dockery will have some of tbe aub lectors to meet at aR of his appointments, pur democratic papers in the district w)l please notice these fapts. WILL YOU DE DECEIVED. We ask the careful mud considerate attention of Old Line Whigs to the following extracts taken from the Northern journals, to show who are our opponents and to what their doctrine tends : lion. W. E. DODGE, of New York, who we believe was a delegate to the Baltimore Bell Convention, and who certainly always has supported the Filmore and Bell parties,, in a speech at a great Lincoln meeting in New York last week said : "Now. gentlemen, I do not intend to make a speech. I simply came here to second, as I do, with all my heart, these resolutions, and I have this 'to say that with all my influence and strength, and energy, I NOW GO BACK TO FIRST PRINCIPLES AND FOR THE NATIONAL NOMINATION, LINCOLN AND HAMLIN tremendous cbetrng aad that they will be triumphantly elected 1 have no doubt. Re enewed cheers." What does Mr. Dodge, Bell and Everett man, mean here by going "back to first principles"? An swer men of the South! You who have been be trayedto the support of this Bell Everett ticket. If it be not too late, fly, oh, fly, from this infernal ma chine which is erected to subjugate the South to a condition of vassalage! Why longer support, a ticket which has been declared by one of their great est leaders to be "the second principl e of Black Re publicanism ?' But it may be said that, "this man Dodge only spoke for himself, and he may not be of any im portance." Yes, he is of importance for when it was charged that W. E. Dodge, had joined th Lin coln party, the New York Express, xt Northern organ of this party scouted the Jidea, and said that Hon. W. E. Dodge, would never aliandon Re".l and Everett ! As to his influence we will only say that itute ery lately. But to show the true sentiments of thispaity through its spokesman, Hon. W. E. Dodge. He said further in that self same speech : "I feel that or. this occasion we may congratulate ourselves, that this mettinjr, that this cominuuity that our State, our nation, may congratulate them selves on such a nomination as was made by the Co.i vention at Chicago. Enthusiastic cheers. 1 feel it to be a privilege before this audience and a duty too, to-night, to explain the position in which I stand here, and the position that I occupied as Chairman of a meeting held here a few months since. It was on that occasion that I assented to act. as Chairman over a very large and influential meeting. I was proud to stand here and advocate thi idea that we had spent tii. e enough and money enough, and hail lost enough in tins country in agitat-ng th? ques tion of Slavery that we had mightier and more im portant duties as a nation to look after. I united in that effort. The party which sprang from that meet ing, and those of a similar character in the country, s you well know, nominated two honorable men Bell and Everett- He then goes on to state that he goes back from these men to "first principles," as above, and is therefore for Lincoln and Hamlin. Is this not enough, when Southern men read it, todrivejthem to the support of the only national ticket headed by Breckinridge and Lane, who are too pure to co operate with such rotten factions? But as a further evidence of the Black Republi can tendencies of the Bell Everett men ; read the following correspondence from the State of Dele ware to the New York Tribune. Read it Bell men, Douglas men, and tell us, can you. will you cast your votes against Breckinridge ! Remember Dele ware is a slave State. The correspondent writes: "A large majority of the Bell men are for - Lincoln as their second choice, an ' when they fairly see that there is uo hope of carrying the Stale for Mr. Bell and there in none they will, in large numbers, vote quietly for Lincoln to prevent the electoral vote be ing given to Mr. Breckinridge. The Douglas men are also well disposed toward Lincoln and the Republi cans, preferring much their success to the success ot the Seceders ; and, under favorable circumstance, we think there is a strong probalility that many ot them will lend us a helping hand. The tight is evi dently between Lincoln and Bieckinridpe here, and a very large majority of i he people of the State pre fer the former toj he latter. - - HAVE WE BLACK REPUBLICANS IN THE SOUTH ? We find the following as an editorial article in the Petersburg Intelligencer : As far as we have been able to judge and we have a good opportunity for we mix with the people. Southern eyes are beginning to see, and Southern brains beginning to think that the nigger is not al mighty. The Constitution was made to serve other purposes than nigger interests. Our Southern Black Republican doctrine of NO MORE STATES and DOWN WITH THE NIGGER (politically speaking) takes with the masses South, like wild fire. Down with the nigger and up with the white man. The above from one of Mr. John Bell's organs in Va., will strike the general reader with surprise of not with deep indignation. What does the Intelli gencer mean by ''Southern Black Republicans, and no more slave States. Down with the negro &c What is our country coming to when such senti ments as theabove will be allowed to pass unpun ished ? So we have a Southern Black Republican party, and that party is John Bell's party ! ! and j that party is against any more slave States and in down upon the negro. God help us ! ! The Petersburg Bulletin a staunch Democratic journal notices the Southern Black Republican doc THjlas follows : Nothing out the evidence of our senses could have convinced us that the i ublication of such sen timents would be tolerated in a Southern commu nity. Ranker Black Republicanism cannot be found in the'eofygnns of the New York Tribune. And yet the Intelligencer is published in a region more populous with slaves than any other portion of the United States, and relies exclusively for support on the very interests which such paragraphs are eal culated, if not designed to injure. Ten a airs ago, such opinions so insolently flaunt ed might have cost their utterer dear, and would no more have been permitted in Petersburg, than they would now in Charlestor, S. C. But times have cltarfe'ed since then. Abolition doctrines have orrad -Ca11 u,"lia urish defiantly under the double di Tasism and Unionism. The Intellig now isguise of Dous- encer combines in itself all that is worst in both. -What the difference can be between the "South ern Black Republicanism" spoken of and its more Northern fellow, we confess ourselves at a loss to discover. "No more (slave) States and "Down with the Nigger," comprise the sum and substance of Lincoln's platform. Perhaps, should that wor thy representative of the Intelligencer's principles, ever find himself at the head of the affairs of this Government, he will have in that paper a ready and most willing supporter. Present appearances it must be confessed favor such a presumption. LOOK OUT FOR THE RED MARK. Our Subscribers whose terms expire on Oct. 1st, will find a cross on theirfpa jgf" An enthusiastic meeting of the friends of Breckinridge and Lane, was held in the Town Hall on Wednesday night last, elloquent speeches were made by J. C. McRae, and W. McL. McKay, Esqts. An adjourned meeting will be held on Wednesday next. gggf The Newbern Progress indulges in various windy articles to prove that John C. Breckinridge bas always been as much in favor of non-intervention as Mr. Douglas. To spare the breath of this newly fledged Douglas bantling, we will inform him tbat he always was more in favor of non-intervention than Mr. Douglas, and is to this day ; and were it otherwise, we would not support the gal- lant young Kentuckian. It is dishonesty in. the I Progress to say that John C Breckinridge is oppoal w - ed to non-intervention now, or that he is in favor of Congressional intervention. It knows that he U not ; that he has repelled the foul slander and sent it back in the teeth of his pycaune traducera. Mr. Breckinridge, in his letter of acceptance, puts the lie upon his slanderers, and says : " The friends of constitutional equality do not and never did demand a ' congressional slave code," nor any other code in regard to property iu the Territo ries. They hold tha doctrine of non-intervention by Congress or by a Territorial Legislature, either to establish or prohibit slavery ; but they assert (forti fied by the highest judicial tribunal in the Union) the nlftin dntT of the federal srovernment in all its depart ments, to secure, when necessary, to the citizens of all the State the enjoyments, of their property in the common Territories as everywhere else within its ju risdiction. ' Mr Breckinridge has shown in his speech at Lex- ingon, that Douglas has abandoned his docti ine of non-intervention, by the way, we published Mr. Douglas' speech, why did the Progress not have hon esty and manliness, and justice enough to publish that of Mr. Breckinridge, and Mr. B. there proved that when a vote was had upon the question wheth er the meaning of the Kansas Nebraska bill was that which Mr. Douglas sow says it did mean. Mr. DODGTAS VOTED THAT IT DID NOT MEAN SQCATTERISM. Mr. Douglas has changed. Mr. Breckinridge has stood firm in the faith. But the following is a sample of the confidence to be placed in the editorials of the Progress : "John C. Breckinridge, as is generally known, began his political career in 1S50. when he took a seat iu the lower House of the Legislature of Ken tucky. Whilst occupying this seat, Mr. Breckin ridge introduced a series of resolutions upon the question of slavery m the Territories, of which the following is the firs: Resolved by the General Assembly of the Com monwealth of Kentucky. That the question of slavery in tne lerntories, oeing wbollt miai. au who inhabit them. House Journal, page 103 1 11. 111. HI 1 ( I'- v. fc- . . Mm " " ..... . t 1 1 - . . , , The fact that J. C. Breckinridge "began his po litical career in 1850," is new and extremely funny. Hurrah for the Progress; and again, that he was then in the "lower house of the Legislature of Ken tuckv," and introduced the above resolution. Mr Breckinr.dgc had just completed his first year as a member of Congres8, and was a candidate for re election at the timcimentioned by the Progress ! ! ! Ah, Pennington, you will have to father that dirty bratt mind, it was an editorial. Our brethen of the "Party Press" will remember how the mighty Pennington scouted at us, as being bound as slaves to party. Now llook at his rea son for not supporting Breckinridge : "HAD MR. BRECKINRIDGE BEEN THE NOMINEE OF THE NATIONAL DEMOCRACY WE SHOULD HAVE SUPPORTED HIM. So he has at last come to believe in cliques and Conventions and nominees and balderdash Bah Pennington ! 33BT" Pennington, of the 'Progress,' a paper p ub lished at Newbern in this State, asks of the l'.reck inridge organs. If they would "advocate disunion or secession, in the event of Lincoln's election." We would prefer that such questions should be left in the bosom of these Douglas men till the test should be applied. We notice th.it the New York Tribune gloats over Mr. McRae s reply to Mr. Clinginan, and llouts at disunion, saying tha tl.ere will be plenty hungry fire-eaters, howill bcl ud to swallow any morsel which m.iy be doaled out by Lincoln to thdm in the way of Offices.

Sinco arriving here I have heard the result of the late elec tion in Texas. The Breckinridge ticket i.- triumph ant by about fifteen thousand majority, at least. I firmly believe she wili roll up twenty five thou in November. Thus far, the Bell-Everett men nor the Douglasites have no electoral ticket.

Wigfall, from Texaj, has been invited by the democracy to be on the spot, to an swer the squatter orator. There is but one feeling in Texas in this great struggle fur principle. Thousands of those who supported Houston in 1859 are now ashamed of it, and are working shoulder to chouldcr with tbe sup porters of the ticket of Breckinridge and Lane. Judge Ochiltree, the leader of the old whig par ty in Texas as long as it existed as a party, ha given his unqualified support to our ticket, and has made several speeches for it. I know of several supporters of Judge Douglas going over to Breckinridge, on account of the col lusion existing between the Douglas and Bell par ties, who are cajoling each other continually and making common cause against the true democracy. Alexandria, Rapides, La. Since the first of this month I have been travel ling through the northern portion of this State, at tending democratic barbecues, and it affords mo great pleasure to say that our ticket will receive a much larger vote in North Louisiana than the most sanguine of us had anticipated- In some of the Earishe Breckinridge will get nearly every vote. I ave just returned trom attending a two-days bar becue in the parish of Jackson. This parish has been heretofore very equally balanced, as often voting with the opposition as with us. They cast about 1,000 votes. Our friends are certain that Breckinridge will carry the parish by not less than 700 majority. Louisiana is perfectly safe by from seven to ten thousand majority. Sonoka, Cal. In regard to the complexing of things here, in a political point of view, I have to say that this coun ty is most decidelg for Breckinridge and Lane. We have heretofore beaten the combined black-republican and anti-Lecompton votes seven or eight hun dred in six thousand, and we have now to fight the very same element. Squatter sovereignty we do not fear ; it is a plant that does not flourish in Cal ifornia, ard we will give our ticket not less than one thousand clear mnjority in our county over all op position. " Uppeh Mahlbobo, Md. The Douglas men are very few in numbers with us, and our party begins to feel alive to the neces sity of going to work and secure the State for Breckinridge. The Bell party cannot carry it, even with a fusion with Douglas, which seems to be the move. The indications now forboda more enthar siashi for our ticket than was manifested a few weeks back. The people are waking up, and our pause is strengthening. GEORGIA. Atlanta, Ga. Ju this State the cause of Breckinridge and Lana is progressing finely.
