JtgrWe have been creditably informed during the past week by a Republican friend, that a certain individual, aided by hit satellites, has industriously circulated I through the country that we should have said—“ That we did not wish Republicans to take our paper, that we would be better supported without them,’’ and by this means endeavoring to injure us in business | —after all other proscriptive measures fail, eyeing is resorted to, by those desii- ’ tute of principle. The accusation is without the least foundation in truth, no declaration of the kind, or anything that could possibly be butchered into such a construction, was ever uttered by us, on the contrary we have < ver been thankful for support in business irrespective of party politics, we detest and abhor the principle and practice of inquiring into any individuals political character prior to supporting them in an honest business transaction. We would say that the charge is a slanderous one, and those who give publicity ■ toit, with an evil intent, are worthy of the association of the characters who are locked up. Rev. James C. Wilson. We admire candor and truthfullness wherever it may be found, ever abhoring and detesting in the most loathsome man- j ner the man so destitute of character as ! to evade and equivocate, and who will ; resort to direct falsehood in order to grat-: ify a few unprincipled sycophants contrary to his better judgement. This is the enviable position which this individual sustains towards us in his late ungen- j tlemanly transaction. That he did come back and re-subsribe for the Eaglewd requested back numbers, statins/ as a reason that he wi shed no difficulty, is a fact susceptible of proof andean be demonstrated satisfactory to the mind of any unprejudiced individual, if it is so desired. His conduct was entirly voluntary, and unsolicited upon our part —we care not for his action. John IL Craffrolh.—The Democratic candidate for Congress in this district, •visited this place on Wednesday last, at the solicitation of his friends delivered a speech at the Court House in the evening. He showed forth in an able and masterly manner the inconsistancies of the Republican party, and the many Violations of their pledges to the people. From the long faces of Republican leaders since the speech, one is led to the conclusion that they feel satisfied that the people will not sustain “little Johnny” notwithstanding his liberal distribution of Garden seed. jf-irOwing to sickness of the Sen.

From the N. Y. States Zeitung, June 24. The Future ol the Democratic Party. The Richmond (Vn.) Enquirer of June 24, contains a long article upon the po-( sition of the Democratic party, from , which we extract the following portions: •We hold that any professed Democrat who attempts to strike down the great i leader of the Northwestern Democracy, I for the sake of perpetuating dissensions, is himself recreant to the interest of the I (party. We advocate the re-election of | Stephen A. Douglas, not because of his views as to Lecompton, nor merely because it would be impolitic to oppose him at present, but because we know of no Illinois statesman who can urge such potent claims to the support of his party; none who has served the party so well; none who has been more faithfully and ; j consistently devoted to the doctrines of i ■ State Rights and State Equality; none , 1 who can bring the same amount of moral I force and intellectual ability to the aid of ' these great principles. •This unnecessary aud unjust abuse of! ; anti-Lecompton Democrats has already) done harm enough to raise the hopes of the opposition, and if persisted in, must 1 produce a struggle which will either di- ! vide the party irretrievably, or crush the . fomenters of the strife. The pretence; ( that anti Lecompton men have adopted a (policy of submission is as untrue as it is; I insulting, and it is absurd to pretend that! they can be forced into submission by in- ; justice and abuse. The two sections of I the party must agree to disagree on the I Lecompton Issue. There is no other peaceful alternative. •The South knows, ns well as we do, ; that the Anti-Lecompton Democrats, not ‘ only of Illinois, but of Virginia, will never subscribe to a Lecompton platform; that any attempt to insert in a Democrat- ! ie platform the principles either of the Le-| ; compton schedule or the English compro- ! ; raise, will meet with unyielding opposi- . tion. ‘The issue of one experiment of this . sort is now pending in Noith Carolina. ’ It is already boasted that the Lecompton clause of the platform lias driven off the ! ; Anti-Lecompton Demociacy to the sup- j ; port of the independent candidate for Governor. Whether this be true or not, I ) it is sufficient to demonstrate the folly of ; ; multiplying chances against the Demo-; ’lie ticket, by raising unnecessary issues. . If, then it is not only useless, but dan- , gerous to make Lecomptonism a Demo- | cratic test, it must certainly be advisable Ito abstain from recrimination and abuse, which can serve no purpose, but to keep alive political rancor and personal animosities.’ Thus speaks ths Enquirer. And we do not conceal it, that recent events in different parts of the country compel us to declare that, in every word, it speaks the whole truth. That portion of the Demo- ) cratic party with which associated, so soon as the Admistration unexpectedly recommended the unconditional acccpt- , ance of the Lecompton Constitution, and to which belong the masses of the Democracy in the Northern States, and a considerable number in the South, has I left no honorable means unemployed, and does even now desire, to prevent a disruption of the party into Lecompton As long as this stiuggle had a direct object, we di 1 not hesitate to perform what we I conceived to be our duty, Regardless as |to whom our censure might affect—regardless whether this or that man felt dissatisfied at the free language of truth, we pursued the path marked out by wbat we conscientiously believed to be the only true construction of Democratic principle?. After by the enactment in Congress of the so-called English Com- ! promise bill, the disputed point had, for ; the time, been decided, and decided in a 1 manner by which the voice cf the peo- j pie of Kansas was first to be heard before j they should be received into the Union as I ; an organized State, we declared ourselves ! | satisfied to the extent that we had, and ) would always, willingly submit to the decision of the inhabitants of that Territory.■ With this decision, and the acquhseuce ) in it, the quarrel ought to be ended. At I least, we hoped it would be so, our endeavors to re-establish the unity of the 1 parly, bear witness to our sincerity. But, I unfortunately, there are a number of men in the party, who, in their eagerness I to convince the President of their ready servility, forget all limits of reasonable I moderation, and every consideration of loyalty to their party. Look, for instance,) at the political condition of Illinois. In I obedience to the call of the Central Com-1 mittee, a Convention of Democrats assem-) bled at Springfield, on April 21. One of the resolutions of that convention declares that they will not make, nor will permit any one to make, Lecomptonism or A nti-Lecomptenism a test of party fealty, and will not proscribe any Democrat simply because he may have coincided in opinion with the Lecomptonites. During the whole time since past, the friends of this Convention and their organs in the press (and nine-tenths of ail the Demociatic newspapers in Illinois side with them) have always openly asserted that they will recognize al] as Democrats who adhere to the Cincinnati Platform, whether they have been for or against Lecompton. But this conciliatory position of the Democratic party did not satisfy the sycophants in the Federal offiI ces in that State. They held another Convention—they nominated another set. I of candidates, whom they audaciously call ‘Democratic,’ and openly announce that they will have achieved their object, if they succeed to divide the party in the Slate, to di feat a Democrat.—Douglas—al• • '■ II Republicibs vic-

torious. They—the Federal ofliceholders —refuse to acknowledge the regular nominations of the party, and put up ‘•stump candidates.” Is that Democratlie? This course Las offended a large portion of the Democrats to such an extent that many who without suspicion I took part in the‘Bolters’ Convention” have left them and rejoined the Democracy. ****** If we have judged aright the personal character of the President, he must feel disgusted at this unprincipled race among his pretending friends. It is almost impossible that be, whom the Democratic party elevated to the hiest position in the country, and in all the world, could or should approve of the doings of his offil cers, trying by their intrigues to bring | defeat upon the party and to misuse his ; name in their detestable work. We cann >t, as yet, believe that he should be satisfied, if his subordiualer, by their anti- | Democratic proceedings, and simplv on account of the offices they hold, exejJ themselves to ruin the party. We hope even, that before it is too late—and very ■ soon it may be too late—he will interpose I his authority to prevent further mischief. | We confess, without reserve, that it I ought to be the duty of the Federal offii cers to conciliate the masses of the De- ; inocracy rather than still more to exaspeI rate them. And we call the attention of, j these gentlemen and of all office-seeking ; cliques, here and elsewhere, to the circumstance that the Democratic mind of I the people of this country will never subI mit to Lecomptouism, but is willing to let the question rest. Should this latter course be decided on in circles of the so-) ; called friends of the Administration— I then we can act unitedly and present a I solid phalanx to the enemy—if not, the | i responsibility for the defeat of the De- : mocracy must fall upon their heads. Do | they wish to see the party victorious, then ; i they have only to follow our advice, to ; consider the interests of the party of ■ higher moment than those of their own ; self, to place the success of Democratic I principles and the welfare of our institutions above office-hunting, and we are ■ satisfied we are a unit. Things to be Remembered. That John U. Pettit, Republican Candidate lor Congress, pledged himself that; if re-elected, lie would not again be a cad-1 didate; and that false to his pledges he has again, by means of a plentiful distribution of garden seeds and books, forced himself before the people. That in 1848, he attended the Baltimore Convention, and helped to nomin- ; ate Gen. Cass, and then came home, opposed his election, and voted tor Van Buren. That in 1852, he came before the Dem- ; ocratic Congressional Convention at MaI rion, and asked forgiveness for the past, sought and was defeated in the nomination lor Congress; then sought and obtained the nomination and election at the hands of lheDemocrats for Judge. Then in 1854, he attended the DemoI cratic Congressional Convention at Marion, seeking the nomination, but finding there was no prospect for him, he bolted the Convention, and was nominated by the “Fusion” partv. since which time he has been kept in office by the Republican parry. That he and some of his friends would have bolted the Convention that nominated him at Wabash, if Mr. Harlan had been successful. That he proclaimed himself opposed to ; the admission of a Slave State under any , circumstances, and then kept his pledges, Ihy voting to admit Kansas as a Slave State, on the Lecompton Constitution, by voting for the Montgomery Bill.

O J I That he preclaimed himself opposed to ) the Bogus Laws of Kansas, whereby vo- ) ters were compelled to subscribe to odious j tests, and then kept his pledge by voting; 1 for the Montgomery Bill, whereby the i elections under it were to be regulated ; pursuant to those laws. That he proclaimed himself opposed to ) Slavery in Kansas, and then kept his pledge by voting for Dann’s Kansas Bill, whereby Slavery was perpetuated in . Kansas, for a certain time, and the fugitive slave law re-enacted. Verily a consistent Candidate—who can trust him?— Hunt. Democrat. The Revivals and the Abolitionists. —AI the anniversary of the Abolition i societies in New York, the following resI olution was passed unanimously: Resolved, That the “revival of relgion, which has swept over the country with contagious rapidity during the last three months, is manifestly delusive and spurions, exceptional cases to the contray notwithstanding, because it has expressly excluded the millions in bondage from all consideration—has multiplied its con- ( verts as readily at the South as at the ■ North—has excited no opposition in the midst of universal, all abounding corrupI tion and profligracy—has received the : sanction and co-operation of the most proslavery divines and journals in the land, has operated (as it was evidently design- ■ ed) to strengthen a church which is “the • bulwark of slavery,” and to divert atten- ’ tion from the work of practical righteoust ness. ‘The Constitution of the United States, f said an orator in Indiana the other day, I ‘requires that 'the constitution of a State t applying for admission shall be republi- . can in form.’ It does no such thio< r . t ... w ° There is a Quaker in Philadelphia so -! upright that he won’t sit down to his • njcajs

Important from Mexico r By the arrival of the steamship Tennes- > sre at New Orleans, we have dates to the 23 J inst. from Vera Cruz, and to the 19th ; from the city of Mexico. The news is important. Owmgtothe t refusal of the American residents to pay • the foiced loan demanded by Zuloaga, their goods has been seized and consequent upon these proceedings Mr. Fori svtb, the American Minister, demanded I and received his passports. • It will be ] remembered that this load was a contribu- 1 , tion levied upon all foreigners ofestablish- \ ing a national Bank, but ready to meet . Administration, and that the Americans ( acted under Mr. Forsith’s advice in re-I . I fusing to pay. Os course, after the out-( . rage "committed upon bis countrymen, , Mr. F. could no longer remain, and is on ■ ) his way home, and diplomatic relations j . between this country and Mexico have, . * for the presentceased. It would seem that the seizure of the j property of our countrymen was Zuloagas last act, for it is stated that ’.ike so many , of his predecessors, he was about to abandon his country. Tampico being the on,l Iv seaport in the hands of his adherents, it was understood he would immediately I proceed thither for the purpose of making his escape, On every band the Liberals were gaining advantages to such an extent that longer continuence on the part 1 of Zuloaga was out of the question. Thus has Mexico taken another step ' on the road which leads to her inevitable ■ destiny. These steps all tend in one direction. There is no retrograde, scarcely a halt in her progress. The question ot her passing under the control of a stronger power, is one merely of time. Its i solution cannot be defeated, and perhaps . !it is not necessary that it should be pre- ! j cipitated. But the question is manifestly on which the United Slates cannot as-, i ford to lose sign of. The incoming government is understood to be well disposed toward the United States, while that of Zuloaga, be- 1 ! ins in the interest of the Church, was bit- i 1 terly mimical to every thing American. — We shall look, not without interest, to the 1 new relations between our Government' an that of Mexico, which will be rendered necessary by the advent Juarez to power. The Old Doctrine Re-affirmed.— (Notwithstanding that the Black Republican members of Congress, withoutexception, voted for the Montgomery bill, which left it to the people of Kansas to determine whether they would have slavery or not, it is plain enough that the I I Black Republican party cling to the doctrine of Congressional intervention in llliI uuis, where it re-affirmed that it is the I right and duty of Congress to prohibit' (slavery in the Territories. Thus, the Wilmot proviso is again set up against popular sovereignty, and the issue made ( distinct as it ever has been between the opposition and the democracy on this question. And not only is the Wilmot proviso set up against popular sovereignty, but it is set up against the decision of' the Supreme Court and against the Federal constitution. By the decision of the Supreme Court this proviso is absolutely unconstitutional, and Congress has no , power to interfere with slavery in the Territories, The Black Republicans of Illinois, in their revised platform, have, ! therefore, placed themselves in antagoi nism with the government itself as well as I: with the Democratic party of the land ?nd with popular rights in the Territories. Doubtless the same thing will be done in every other State where there are Black Republican organizations. So, all ; the Black Republican professions that we have heard in favor of popularsovereign-

ty have been delusive and false.— Detroit Free Press. Hard to Suit.—The Republican press have been very indignant against Mr. Buchanan, because he proposes the immediate admission of Kansas into the Union as the quickest and best mode of settling the difficulties there. By their votes, in the main, was the proposition killed. The Conference bill now proposes if the people ot Kansas do not accept the prop osition of Congress, that Kansas should remain a territory until she has the required population to entitle her to admission with the Union. At this too the Black presses are disatisfied. Tney voted against admitting Kansas and voted against keeping her out. They are surely hard to please.— Fort Wayne Sentinel. Editorial Life.—We kindly recommend the following to all who are strangers to the life of the editor. It is the expression of Capt. Marryatt, and the experience of all editors who justly feel the responsibilities of their position: •1 know how a periodical will wear down one’s existence. In itself it appears nothing; the labor is not manifest' nor is it the labor, it is the continual attention it requires. Your life becomes as it were the publication.

Our Nominee for Congress. John R. Coffroth, the candidate se-; lectedbythe late Democratic Congressional Convention, and our standard beaier in this, the 11th Congressional District, being no doubt peisonally unknown io many in the District, it is no more than our duty to give a short sketch of the man and bis many virtues. M e can do it with a full heart, for we have known him long and intimately, and it is tiuly a ‘labor of Jove.’ He was born in the old Key Stone State, and took up his home in Huntington about ten years ago, after having completed his studies as an Attorney, and I since then his success in his Profession (has been almost imprecedented. As a Lawyer, we know of numerous instances in which he has refused large fees, where wealth sought to oppress poverty, and oi many where he has successfully defendied the poor and unfortunate, ‘without the hope of fee or reward.’ As an Attorney he has no superiors in the District, if in i the State. As a Democrat, he is, and always lias been, firm unflinching and consistent. — He has given the whole weight of his talI ents and influence to the cause, without asking or expecting reward therefor The nomination he has now received has been frequently tendered to him, and always heretofore, refused. Nor did he seek it ! now. His friends did, forhim (and these embrace all who know him,) and have succeeded in placing him in the position )he should have occupied long ago. He has accepted it, and will, as every Democrat should, use his utmost endeavors to secure, not his own success, but that of the entire Democratic Ticket. Asa debater, he is clear, logical, and (elequent. Little Johny, the Greedy, will find he has a competitor who will neither ask or recieve quarter; and if he does not wish he had back some of those “Gaiden seed” that secured his nomination, we ; shall miss our guess. DEMOCRATS! The candidates are I before you! choose ye! If you are Dem- ! ocrats in spirit and in truth, then vote for John R. Coffroth, ‘the man without a ; stain,’ either privately or politically. De■publicans! Make your choice, and make it now! We have on our side a firm friend of the people, and one who stands firmly upon the platform adopted by the Cincinnatti Convention of 1856. The Republican party have nominated John U. Pettit, —' the Greedy'— three times a renegade, from as many different parties—and the man whose friends threatened, (no doubt with his authority)—that if Harlan was nominated, they would defeat the whole Republican ticket in the District. The Delegates got scared —thought his friends I were talking in earnest—and consequently Harlan had to be sacrificed as an offerii g to the ambition and avarice of ‘Little Johnny,’ Let the polls show whether Petit is King of Hie District, or whether the people are.— Huntington Dom \ ocrat. More Black RepublicanEffrontcry. For unparalleled impudence and unmittigated humbuggery, we would respectfully refer our readers to the course pursued by the par excellence advocates of popular sovereignty among the Black . Republicans, who were a short time ago so opposed to this ‘noxious heresy’ ahd ‘vicious principle’ of Democracy. Congressional sovereignty was the sovereign plank in the platform of the opposition.— Now, they have stultified themselves, and have been guilty of grand larceny in stealing the popular sovereignty plank from the Democrats. Thus it is, that however bitter any Democratic measure may be assailed, anil whoever may be the assail- ( ant, that measure is certain to become a

settled principle in American politics and history, and the very men who have assailed it, not only adopt, but generally try to claim it. : These remarks are suggested by reading a newspaper circular from the'pen of Hon. Lewis D. Campbell, of Ohio, the Republican ousted from the last Congress on account of his holding his seat bv the votes of negioes and through fraud.— Mr. Campbell says: I can not now give better evidence of my profound gratitude for the confidence reposes in me in the past, (han my promise to make any reasonable sacrifice in the future, in behalf of the principles of popular sovereignty. I Now, the Honorable gentleman has always, until recently, contended that the principle of the Nebraska bill was ’a great folly, and popular sovereignty ‘a hum- ; bug \\ under if he doesn’t wish to i»o back to Congress! But it is even so. Democrats are nbuse .and their principles jeered at and ridiculed by such men as Lewis D. Campbell until they become popular, when j they will have the effrontery to speak out and 'promise to make any reasonable ' j* acr| tice m the future in behalf of popu- ’ or any other doctrine which the people indorse. Let such arrant demagogues and political hypocrites Lewis D. Campbell be st. icken down, n * P°P ular sovereignty, but not Mr. Lafpbell s kind.— State Sen. fI J l '.® tresß «> work on lhe Eaton and Hamilton (0.)
