'Awful Uprightness and Sineerity. We saw a paper published in this District last week, which was brim-full and ranning over with' wit, sarcasm, ridicule, irony and pious denunciationg against any one; who dare be profane enough to. think of selecting a Congressiomfl candidate from Fort Wayne, and even attempting to call to life a deceased Statesman, assuming to get his:aid in invective. =

But lo! how is it? a very few weeks ago this very paper claimed the nomination as due to Fort Wayne this year—urged it as a bounden duty upon the rest of the distriet to award it there.

Read thissame paper last week, and reflect whether its voleaio of anathemas, its frenzied appeals are intended to hit, overwhelm aud demolish the au. thor of “Fort Wayne's claims” of a few wecks before. vl

Get the two documént:é: fiom the same pen, reader, and then see where the flood of damnations which ‘are poured out last week belong. * ° Satan rebuking sin ‘aint nowhere,’ as compared with this ‘“re-organizing the Whig Party.” e

Mr: Wm.

Birch visited Scantling’s family and looked around Huntington a few days, whén being content with ;oafing, he walked over to the depot and without the knowledge of Mr. Scantling or any body else took the first train for Peru. He came into town from our Depot last evening in company with the other passenger from the East. Birclk had no aequaintances aboard and no money.— It is supposed he sponged his fare, the only mean trick he was ever accused of. Bireh’s sagacity is evinced first in deciding to take a train rather than walk and second in distinguishing between trains going east a: d west.

The Pro-Stavery party are making desperate efforts to defeat Blair for Congress, and are appealing to the Know Nothings for assixtanee. The Democrat appears confidenit of a Eree Soil triumph. We make an extract from a stirring appeal in its Friday issue: .~ - .~

Tue Vicrory 1s Ours.—The Republicanof yesterday virtually confess< ed toa humiliating defeat. Its tone was subdued, its confidenee all gone, its low trickery exposed to the world The crushing defeat of Barret, Hogan, andthe Nationals, is now put beyond the question of a doubt. The Free Democracy have only to stand to their -positions, and Monday J:lext will record for them a triumph-more glorious than ever transpired in the annals of our city. They have it in their power to poll a larger vote for Blair than for both the other candidateis combined.

g5~ A correspondent of the Boston Herald alleges that a duel took place early on Monday morning in Roxbury, between a Southern gentleman and a young law student of Boston.'

The Southerner insulted him on Saturday forenoon, and the student challenged him at once. All ‘parties are highly comnected. =~ * gem. John B.

-~ Douglas and the Fire Eaters. Mr. Douglas has ‘made his peace with the fire eaters. They take him back to the fold like a lost sheep whose return caused more rejoicing than the ninety-nine which went astray. They care not a farthing for his quarrel with thé President so long as no principle is involved in it. They go for &he inside of the eosca-nut, straight.” They hold that he is just as gm% a pro-Slavery man, and just as great a Donghface as Old Buck ever was. They point triumphantly to his career in 1856 when 'he was villifying the emigrants from his own state, who had been murdered and plandered in Kansas and declare that his principles remain unchanged, or if anything improved by the substitution of tlie Dred Seott dogma for his worn out ‘Squatter Sovereignty.” They excuse his fallacy of givimg the people of the Territories the power to exclude slavery, on the ground of “inadvertence.” They per¢ieve he has ‘a serious error to atone for’ in this respect, but hold that ke is atoning for it with all reasonab’e dispatch—which is our opinion also.— They have' ascertained that his split with the National Democracy was mere1y a tub thrown to the Illinois whale—‘that on no other terms could' he have ‘heped to retain his scat in the Senate. For this dodge they exercise the larg‘est . cousideration—the most forgiving charity. To labor for the extension of slavery and keep a Free-Soil constitu~ ency in good humor, is not so easy a job. = One’s motives are apt to be misunderstood, and one’s reputation tarnished for the time being, but the spirit of the true nigger-breeder remains unsullied. : : - A late number of the Richmoid Enquirer, the organ' of the practical amalgamationists of Virginia, puts the whole thing in a nut-shell. We eall special attention to its statement that Douglas has nobly tomahawked his own child, Popular Sovereignty, in' behalf of the Dred Seott decision and the requitements of nigeer business: ; ‘During-the campaign of 256, and if "we are not mistaken, in speeches de- ‘ livered both before and after that period, Mr. Douglas openly advocated the doctrine that slave labor will and ought to be employed wherg¢vef climatory influence renders it preferable to free.labor. During the past session of Congress, Mr. Douglas expressly argued that the attributes of sovercignty belong only to the States of the confed eracy; that the people of a Territory have the absolate right to form a Constitution in their own way and without any Congressional intervertion only Because such a Constitution is intended ‘to express the sovereign will, so soon as the new State shall be admitted into the Union. If Mr. Douglas has occa~ sionally employed ' the expression ‘Pop‘ular Sovereignty” i any sense opposed ’to this, bis own able expositions of the subject are fully sufficient to demon'strate that he inadvertently fell into a were error of cxpression.(very prevalent at the -time,) while intending to designate the Zimited power of selfgoveroment which the people of a Territory are enabled to exert by permission of Congress. “In his late speech at Springfield, Mr. Douglas distinctly admits that Congress has no right to prohibit slavery in the Territories, and hence the Territorial Legislatures have no right to do it. Thus Mr. Douglas has gone to the full extent of the doctrine expounds ed. by the Suprcme Court in the Dred Seott -case, and asserted by the Presi~ dent in the Silliman letter, gl

“With this clear and just appreciation of the principles involved, we do not doubt that. Mr Douglas combines an entire willingness to recognize whatever patriotic duties this acknowledgment of: principles may dictate.. That Mr. Douglas, vn common with the other Statesmen who ~preparéd and enacted the Nebraska Bill; more than one serioas' error to atone for in that respect, cannot be deuied. DBut we are ready to believe that these errors involved no willful -uegligence of constitutional right; - and if past records, or' present avowals, or both together constitute a. rzliable test, no Statesman of the north and very few at the South, have defended the rights of slaveholders more warmly and effectually, or have committed” fewer crrors in the course of bonest and earnest endeavors in behalf of the enforcement of constitutional guaranties than -has Stephen A. Douglas , _ [Chi.. Tribune.

We do not remember having seen that Messrs. Kilgore and Case have yet been renominated, but they may have been, and we know 'no reason why they should not be, und reelected. s S ~ In the Tthy (Terre Han%e) district, we rejoice to see that John G.
