TBKCSAiiflX Mcwwrtiwc* ALMBT wmmti The Republican party are constantly charging Sir. Douglas with want of consisteocy—with being in favor of intervention atone time and opposed

intervention at

another time. Withont stopping to show the utter falsity of this charge—which could easily be done—we propose to consider whether it would not 6e well for the Republican party to move out of gfas houses" before they undertake to throw stones." This party boasts that it is in favor of freedom of the press, freedom of speech, the right of petition, and it insista that a restriction ought to be placed upon slavery in all the Federal Territories' by Congressional legislation. Such is its clam, and, of course, when it presents a candidate for Congress, it is fair to presume that he represents these ideas—if he does not, then we have aright to question the sincerity of those who nominated him.

Now how is it with Albert S. White, the nominee of the Republican party in this Congressional district Mr. White had the honor of serving in Congress onco upon a time, and while there he voted for the passage of the following resolution

Resolved, That all petitions, memorials and papers touching the abolition of slavery, or the buying, selling or transferring of slaves in any State, District or Territory of the United States be laid on the table without being debated, printed, read or preferred, and that no further action whatever be had thereon. [See H. W. IMuskcy's Political Text Book, pages 13 and 14.]

Now, we ask, arc the Republicans consistent when they profess to be in favor of free discussion, right of petition, and opposition to slavery in the Federal Territories, adopting these theories as their fundamental policy, and, at the same time, prescut a candidate for Congress, who, by his recorded vote, shows that he was opposed to all such doctrines, and who, by his subsequent conduct, indicates that he has not changed ground. True, lie may, since his nomination, try to ignore or disclaim his votes while in Congress, hut, we respectfully ask, Has the Republican party jnuch or any faith in a death bed repentance

But this is not by any means the extent of the inconsistency of this party. The Republicans dcclnre that freedom is national and slavery is sectional"—that the !ongrcssional legislation of the country ought to discriminate in favor of free homes, free labor, and free territory, and tliat f'ougresfckas therigbttu crereigc ihis discrimination. Of courses, then, their candidate for Congress -ought to represent those views. Let us see if he docs. Allicrl S. White, in the month of DeeemVer •of the year 183R, voted in Congress fox the following resolution jRcxnlccfl, That Congress, in the exercise of Us acknowledged powers, has no Tight «i.iscriiuinatc between the institu-Sawis-crtf «wc portion of the States and another with the view of abolishing the one f.r promoting the other. [See Cluskey's

Political Text Rook, page 73 and 74, or noc Congressional (Jlobe of 11th December, 1838.]

Talk of consistency! talk of the fairness stud honesty of the Republicans when •flier say onc thing, and seek to send into

Congress, as the representative of their gislitieal ideas, a man who votes and acts directly in opposition to their professed principles.

Rut this is not all. The Republicans claim that Congress has the power to prohibit or abolish slavery in the Federal Territories, and that it is the duty of Congress to exercise that power. Where docs Mr. White stand on this question In December of the year 1838 he voted in Congress for the following resolution

Resolved, That all attempts on the part •of

:Oangrcss«,

to abolish slavery in the Dis

trict of Columbia, or the Territories, or to prohibit the removal of slaves from State to State, or to discriminate between the institutions of one portion of tho Confederacy and another, with the view aforesaid arc in violation of the Constitution—destructive of the fundamental principle on vrbich the Union of these States rests, and beyond the jurisdiction of Congress. [Seo Jongrcssionfcl Globe for December 1838.]

.Such was Mr. White's vote. Is it-con-Distent with the Republican platform, or with the principles which they daily seek to disseminate But let us trace Mr. White's record a little further. It is really refreshing. On the 12th day of December, 1837rMr.- J.- Q.Adatns presented a petition,' -with fifty thousand 'names subscribed, praying the abolition of slavery and the slave trade in the District of CoJaoib/a. Mr. Henry A. Wiso moved to lay the petition on the table—Albert S. White voted to lay it on the table. [See Congressional Globe, second session, 25th Congress, page 19.] On the same day, Mr. J. Q. Adams presented a petition for the abolition of slavery in the Territories of 'the United Stales, and moved its reference to ths Committee on Territories.— Henry A, Wise moved to lay Mr. Adams' motion on the table, and Albert S. White voted to lay the motion on the table.— (See Cong. Globe for 1847, page 20.] [We thus see that Mr. White, by his vote on these resolutions, sought to suppress th# right of: petition and the freedom of debate in Congress go the slavery question ia the "Federal Territories. By these

votes, he denies that Congress-bis the right to discriminate in faver of free labor as against slave labor. He denies that it is within the acknowledged power of Congress to abolish alavery and' promote free labor in the Federal Territories. And lastly, Mr. White, by his vote, says that all attempts by Congress to abolish slavery in the Federal Territories, or to discriminate in favor of free labor in the Territories, are in violation of the Constitution, and beyond the jurisdiction of Congress. Is Mr. White only a non-interven-tion Democrat in the disguise of a Republican, who denies the power of Congress over the slavery question Or, are the Republican party about to abandon the Chicago platform, together with the loud professions which they have hitherto made, and become non-intervention Douglas Democrats Will they continue to preach one doctrine, while their candidate for Congress has always persistently Totod for quite another They claim to be consistent and insist that we are inconsistent.— Let the record decide between us. This is but the beginning of the end of Mr.

White's record, and the inconsistency of the Republican party. Wc shall from time to time, refer to both.—Lafayette Herald.

AN APT ILLUSTRATION—A PA1BOV SHIABSt One of the best illustrations of the similarity of principle between the Southern Disunion party, which supports Breckinridgeand Lane, and tho Northern Republicans who go for Lincoln and Hamlin, is contained in the following extract from Mr. Douglas' Concord (New Hampshire) speech. He said 's

You find the country divided into two sectional.parties, one North and, the other South—the Republican party in the North, appealing to the prejudices of the South against the North. The Republican party demand that the Federal Government shall take charge of the slavery question. The Southern Disunionists demand also that the Federal Government shall settle the question. The Republicans want the Federal Government to wield its power against slavery and the Disunionists want it wielded for slavery everywhere. Thus vou find an irrepressible conflict" between them. The one is the antipodes of the other, but each is necessary to the existence of the other. The Republicans of the North, and the Disunionists of the South occupy precisely the same relations to each other as the two blades of a pair of shears they both turn on the same pivot and cut in opposite directions. Intervention by Congress with slavery in the (Territories is the pivot,on which both turn,

The Republicans say Congress must, proI hibit slavery when the people want it.— I The Disunionists demand, on the other hand, that the Federal Congress ever sli ill maintain and protect slavery whenever the people don't want it. They say they want it protected by Congress when it is necessary to protect, and it is not ncecssarv to protect it when the people want {it themselves. Thus both of these parties I predicate their distinctive creeds upon the doctrine of intervention by Congsess with slavery in the rcrritorrics, in opposition to the wishes of the people in a 1 cases.— jThc Democratic party, on the other hand, proclaim the doctrine of non-interference with the domestic institutions of the peopie everywhere. ["Good." That's it."

THEBROKKR AJ(D niSCIiEHK. Many a man wlm has become a hardened criminal might have been saved to society by a little tender sympathy and discriminate kiudness in the beginning of his vicious life. Few men have grace to act like the broker in the following incident, but success would follow often such kindness

It is easy to ruin and it is easy to save a young man. One of the leading brokers in New York had a young man in his cmploy. The vast amount of money in his hands was a great temptation to him.— Small sums were missed day after day one quarter, then fifty cents, then one dollar, then two dollars Were missed. He was charged with peculation. The broker showed him how he could detect the abstraction of the smallest sum of money the young man stammered and confessed. Now, said the broker I shall not discharge, I shall not dishonor you. I intend to keejj you, and make a man of you. You will be a vagabond if you go along in.this way.-— Now let me sec more of this. He went to his work. He did not disappoint tbc confidence. He did honor to his employer. And the other

*9* A pleasing episode occurred at the New York State Democratio Convention at Syracuse which is thus related by an exchange

While waiting the return of the Tammany delegates a dispatch was received from Bangor, Maine, stating that Senator Douglas was there surrounded by 30,000 Democrats, and assuring the representatives of the Douglas Democracy of New York, that Douglas would carry Jl&ine.^— The reading of the dispatch was rtsponded to by three cheers. A motion was put, and earned, that a reply be sent assuring the Assemblage that riew York would not be behind Maine, her sister State,

ML. I. ASK AXB nil waie With the exception, of Seward and Greeley, there is probably no man who was in such, hoi haste to break up the Whig party and'convert it, (to use the language of Henry Clay) into a contemptible abolion party/' than. .Colonel. Henry S. Lane, the present Republican candidate for Governor of Indiana. At the first gathering of the class who had determined to slaughter the paaty of which Henry Clay was the founder, at Pittsburgh, in Februaay,'1856, we believe Gol. Lane was not present.— The principal representative from Indiana in that Convention was Oliver P. Morton, tho present Republican.candidate for Lieutent Governor, on the ticket with Col. Lane. But this convention did nothing except to enunciate some, ultra abolition dogmas. It adjourned without making a Presidential nomination.

In June this convention reassembled in Philadelphia, its numbers largely increased, and the spirit of hostility to the South," still more deeply engraven on the hearts of its members. It had come determined not only to give the last kick to the expiring whig party, but also to bring out a candidate in opposition to Mr. Fillmore, who was already in the field as the nominee of the American party. This convention felt that Col. Lane of Indiana had rendered distinguished service in breaking up the Whig party in order that a sectional abolition party might be reared up in its stead, and gratefully acknowledged it by choosing him, above-all others, as President of that body. Upon taking the chair, Col. Lane made a speech, in which he spoke of that day—the anniversary of the battle of Bunker Hill—as. the day on which the spirit of liberty would be reinaugcratcd, &c. This convention nominated Fremont as its candidate for President, in opposition to Fillmore, and throughout the canvass Col. Lane was a zealous supporter of the nominee, .4

Such was the part taken by Col. Laue in breaking up the old Whig party, and when wc hear him passing panegyrics upon that party, wc cannot avoid thinking of the appeal of tbc young man who was recently convicted in one cf the French courts of the murder of his father and mother, to be merciful to a poor orphan." If Col. Lane has been politically orphaned by the death of the Whig party,'he himself is the parricide and the matricide.— N. A. Ledger.

That's it."J We say to the Federal Government, Hands off. '1 ouch not the local affairs of the people," We say to the Federal Government what our fathers of the Revolution said to the British Parliament Mind your own business."

English say, with great truth, that they have to grant to all of these foreigners annual salaries, and that the only reward they get for them is the sacrifice of British to German interests. All of these German wives or husbands have lived on the British people, and supported their friends in Deutschland on what they screwed out of Parliament. More than this in time of trouble they have time and again, used the arms and money of England to serve the interests of their broken down families in Germany. Prince Albert as every one knows, played a thoroughly double-faced game in the interest of the German oligarchs, during the Crimean war.

These facts arc not likely to render the British nation partial to another German marriage. The English have married their Prince: Royal to a German whom ihey have to pay handsomely for taking her, just as they had to pay Albert for marrying their Queen but when it conies to settling their Prince of Wales, they may look for something better than a

ITALY A5D A EUROPEAN WAR. The indications are such as to amount to almost a certainty that Italy is again to become the theater of-a great European war. The hollow peace or truee of Yilafranca has subserved its purpose, which was only to give the combatants'time to recruit their armaments and recoverfirom the shocks which they had sustained. From the beginning it was evident, that it was destitute of any of the. elements of permanence.— Italy panting for national life and unity, was dissatisfied with it, as Austria influence was still potent in the governments of the Peninsula. Austria had sustained too large a loss to rest under its provisions, and it was morally certain that she would embrace an early opportunity to regain her ascendency. French ambition and cupidity aiid French love of military glory bad only been stimulated and increased by the war, rather than satiated by it.— Nevertheless the peace would have lasted. longer but for tbe course pursued by that most extraordinary man, GARIBALDI. By his conquest of Sicily and his projected dethronement ot the King of Naples, he is bringing matters rapidly to a crisis.— Austria must interfere fdk Naples, or Italy will be free from her dominion, in a twelvemonth, from one extremity to the other.— She can not hold Venetia against the forces that could then be arrayed against her.

The. march of her troops across the Vcntian frontiers will be the signal that will light up the conflagration. Every thing foreshadows this event. Her demands against Sardinia, the drawing closer the relations between Prussia and the other German States, her increased and rapid armament, the rumors that fill the air, all give token that she contemplates another struggle in Italy. KOSSUTH is in Paris, under the permission of the French Government, which contemplates the possibility of making hitn useful in Hungary, where the fire of dissatisfaction still smolder and buru. Sardinia jnay seek to arrest the storm by opposing tbe GARIBALDI expedition and saving Naples, but it will be but another short respite from an event that is, soon to'takc" place. The French and Italian troops are bound ere long to close /oncts with the Austrians within the limits of the Historical Square, where the struggle for Italiari'indepcndencc must be decided.—Cincinnati Jvnquircr.\:-ih r.

WASHINGTON IN TEARS!. ^At the close of the Revolution.it is well known that Congress was unable to meet its obligations to the army. Division of counsel existed as to the best method of raising the funds to pay off the army before it was disbanded. While thus the hopes of the unpaid army was alternately elevated and depressed, some traitorous persons scattered an anonymous circular among them, fomenting the dissatisfaction already existing, and leading to open rebellion. The individual who was suspccted to have been the author of this paper, was Gen. Armstrong. Washington summoned all the officers in his prcscuce, to hear an appeal which he had prepared, and a copy of which is found in Marshall's Life.— Neither would lands, however rich, nor continental paper, however legal, purchase bread or clothing. The minds of the army had been embittered by poverty and disappointment, and their principles corrupted by the infidel French literature which flooded our land and poisoned all the fountains of society.- On a certain day, the loyal and the disloyal gathered arouud the camp of the Father of our Country.— General Gates, against whom charges were made, had been withdrawn, presided.

RK9IAKIM#r PBTCR CABT WRIfiHT Rev. Peter Cartwright, tbe backwoods Methodist preacher, being called on at the Democratic mass meeting held at Carrollton August 2d, I860, came foward in the prcscuce of twenty thousand people, and in the course of a few remarks used tbe following language:

I am an old man, and it would be impossible for me to make my voice heard by this vast assembly. I do not desire to make a political speech, for its my sphere to talk upon another besides, there are others here better able to address you than myself. I only wished to explain a few facts that have been circulated in the. papers in regard to a conversation which took place between myself and certain others on the cars the substance of which was as fallows.

While on a trip to the East I found myself in tbe company of some Northcn Abolitionist and Republicans, and iu the course of our remarks some one asked, what State I was from, and I replied, "from Illinois." "Then," said he, "you must be acquainted with Mr. Lincoln, our candidate for President." I told him "I ought to be, for I had lived in the same county with him for many years." He then asked, "What kind of a man is be?"
