MEETING OF THE NATIONAL DE. MOCRACY. Pursuant to previous notice, the friends of Breckinridge and Lank, tlio " Constitution and the Union, nnd thoEipinlily of Stalcn," held a respectable and enthusiastic meeting at Henfleytown, Juhnron county, on Saturday, the 28lh inat. The meeting was organ ' ized by calling J. A. Benson to the chair, and electing Buck Hunt .Secretary. . Mr. Benson, on taking the chair, alluded to the divisions in the Democratic party, the necessity of har- ' mony of action, and the urgency upon every National Democrat to come forward and use all honorable means for the election of thoso true and tried states-

-Tnen, Bukckinuidcik and juank, to the - rrcnuency and Vico Presidency. He staled the object of the meeting to be to organize a Democratic elub, and to take such other action as is deemed advisable to fur-, ' ther the interests of the National Democratic party, . Col. Henry Musskinan an old veteran in the party who has never vet voted for any but a sound National

Democrat for President, commencing with Jacksonwas called upon for a speech, when he took the stand and said -. Mi Friends and Fellow-Citizens : It lias been some years since I have taken an active part in poli tics, or attempted to make a political speech; and were it not for the exigencies of the cause of Liberty, and the dangers that now threaten our beloved Union that distract the citi.ens of every section of our country and arrays the one against the other I would not to-day raise my voice to counsel the Democratic partyThe tide of abolition and fanaticism, that has swayed the greater portion of the Northern Suites, must be : stayed. The name must not be longer fed by giving our support to such enemies of the Constitution as Stephen A. Douglas, or upon Us will come, with fearful swiftness, the punishment due to all traitors to our country. Jly friends, you are all aware of how the nominations at Baltimore were made, and know that Douglas did not receive the whole vote of the delegates of one reliable Democratic State ; while BuECKiNKiDGE and Lane received the almost entire vote of the delegates from those States that may be confidentially relied on by the Democrats. President Buchanan has well said, that Douglas dm not receive tin. nomination of the Democracy for President. Un der this state of existing circumstances, will you, my friends, support the candidate of a mere faction? Will you five aid and comfort to a candidate who has caused a disruption of the Democratic parly ? Will ' you persist in his support, when that support will not only elect a Black Republican, but bring about the disruption of the Union?, Sixty or eighty voices, No t No, my friends, I Know you will not. While other parts of our country have given way before the enemies of the South, and of the Constitution and the Union, old Democratic Hensley has never faltered or been appealed to in vain. After reviewing at some length the position of the various parties on the Ter- - ritorial slavery question, and exposing the fallacy of

1 squatter sovereignty,' the speaker gave way for the adoption of some resolutions, expressive of the sense of the meeting. Milton Thornsbury, chairman of the committee on resolutions, presented the following, which were unanimously adopted : Resolved, That we, the Democracy of Hensley township, in convention assembled, do hereby heartily endorse tha doctrines of our party recognizing, as they do, the " Constitution, and the Union, and the Equality of the States" as declared so fully and fairly in the Baltimore Platform of 18G0. Resolved, That wo approve and cordially endorse the nomination of J. C. Breckinridge and Joseph Laxe for the Presidency and Vice Presidency, and ""Y de hereby pledge ourselves to use our best efforts to secure their election. Resolved, That we will, en masse, attend the Breckinridge and Lane Ratification Meeting, to be held at the State Capital, on Tuesday, the 31st. The meeting then appointed a committee to draft a Constitution and By Laws for the government of the Club, and to report permanent officers for the same. On motion, the " Old Line Gunrd" and the Franklin Herald were requested to publish the proceedings of the meeting. Adjourned, with three cheers for Breckinridge and Lane, to meet on Saturday, August 4, 1860. J. A. BENSON, President, Buck Hunt, Secretary. Senator Greene Defines his Position.

DOUGLAS AND HIS POLICY. The course adooted bv the Douulas National Com'

mittee against nil co-operation with other opponents of Lincoln, and the advice given to Ins adherents elsewhere, to run separate electoral tickets in all the Suites, whatever effect such a policy may have cm the result, is subjecting Mr. Douglas to severe criticisms Jn many quarters, and to charges of unfaithfulness and "intended treachery to his friends. Such is the burden of a communication which we print below, from a Democrat in Connecticut. Whilo we think the policy which has been adopted by the National Committee, apparently with the approval of the nominee, inexplicable -upon any rational principle of Democratic warfare, and arc quite unable to reconcile such a course with our own ideas of public duty, we are not prepared to adopt the theory that Mr. Douglas contemplates such an act oi treachery as is here imputed to him. Fortunately, large numbers of the leading supporters of the Douglas ticket have the manliness and the independence to act regardless of the dictation of the National Committee, and to pursue such a course as shall best promote the success of National principles, and the defeat of the Kenublicnn candidates. This fact may thwart any attempt of Mr. Douglas or his Central Committee to prevent sucn a union oi me conservative men of the country as the exigencies of tlie times demand. Political excitement and passion often go fiir to control and warp the judgment of the ablest statesmen ; but Mr. Douglas ought to be above their indulgence, as we trust he is above such a be trayal of the confidence of his friends, as would be in volved in the plot ascnuea to mm in me auuexeu cum' niunication : For the Journal of Commerce 1 New London, July 23, 18G0. Messrs. Editors : It has been a matter of greasurprise and speculation with sensible men of all part ties, that Mr. Douglas should oppose so strenuously a I nion ticket in those blates where lur, juincoin is sure to have the ascendancy unless such Union ticket is formed. It is evident that this refusal to act jointly on the part of the Democrats, will give to Mr. Lincoln those Slates; and yet Mr. Douglas persists, although he knows the Democratic party will thereby be de feated. The greatest matter of surprise, however, is that the Douglas men (his followers) should be so blinded in tbcir'ndherenee to him, as to follojv implicitly his dictation, when nothing but ruin to the Democratic parly North, is the consequence. On ordinary occasions a veil so thin can be seen through by the followers of a chque ; but in this instance there seems to be a blindness in the minds of the followers of Mr. Douglas that is nerfectlv unaccountable: for it is evident on the face of it, that 'Mr. Douglas, knowing there is no possible chance of his belli!? elected, is deteimined to open the way for the admission of Mr. Lincoln into office, by onnosincr a Union ticket, which would keep him out If we charge the Douglas wire pullers with this purpose, they scouf the idea, and the Douglas followers swallow the disavowal, though the fact and its re sults stare them in the face. X lie question is immediately asked, what motive can Mr. Douglas have for allowing his strongest political enemy to triumph and that n'uestion seems to put a flat denial to the charge. To look a little further ahead may set mat ters in a clearer light to the uninitiated than thenleaders would like to have them sec; for no man in his senses can suppose that Mr. Douglas has no ulterior object in view when he deliberately counsels a course that is suicidal to his political prospects in the Demo cratic party. And now for the original cause of this otherwise unaccountable freedom of Mr. Douglas to aid Mr. Lincoln's election, bv securing the free states to him, through the division he is determined to keep up between the two wings of the Democratic party North. The real and evident cause of Mr. Douglas' conduct is, that by an arrangement long since concocted, he is to be the nominee of the Republican party in 1 8 Gi. Messrs. Wilson, Greeley, Banks & Co., have this matter in hand. The overtures were mado to Mr. Douglas, the public will recollect, soon after he bolted from the Democratic party, existing then as a unit; and it was generally reported through the public prints, that the Republicans were about to take him up. The public will also recollect that, at the time, the above named centlemcn had several interviews with Mr. Douglas, and were closeted with him for some time, and that Mi1. Greeley and Mr. Wilson particu larly said, after those interviews, that " Mr. jjougias was all right, but the time had not yet come." This, Messrs. Editors, is the cause, and the only cause; why Mr. Douglas is acting so strange a part towards the Democracy which he professes now Jo represent; a wise part, undoubtedly, for himself, in view of his ulterior objects. Many who had adhered to him before the decided position which he and his committee at Washington had taken, have left his ranks, because they see clearly that Mr. Douglas' present plan is secure the election of Mr. Lincoln at all hazards, and I trust before the election takes place in November next, every true and honest Democrat will see clearly the doom to which Mr. Douglas is leading him, by refusing a union ticket, and abandon him altogether to his fate before it is too late. TILE VOTE CERTAIN RIDGE. IN PENNSYLVANIA P OR BEECKINThe Herald, in speaking of the Presidential election, says: " Pennsylvania may possibly still be secured to Mr. intent against the administration, has turned over uie Democracy there into the undisputed control of the Breckinridge interest. We think Pennsylvania can bo carried with as much case for Breckinridge and Lane as South Carolina. What is to hinder us? Last fall the Republicans, the Douglas men, and the 'whole army of sore heads inaugurated a pro rata movement in Pennsylvania, and organized a people's party.

THE CAMPAIGN..

SENATOR GREEN AT WARRENSBURG. ISpetiul Corro.ipondenco of the St. Louin llullctii). Warrenshuro, July 23, I860. There has been no rain of any consequence in Jackson, Cass, Johnson, and other contiguous counties, since the middle of February, and the result has been tho almost utter failure of crops, and especially the corn. ENTEIU'ltlSU AND I'ATK IOTI8M. Warrensburg is the most primitive-looking county scat I have yet visited, but its appearance is no criterion either of its present business enterprise or patriotism. Tho county nnd private subscriptions to the Pacific Railroad have already been one hundred -nnd seventy-live thousand dollars j-. and in anticipation of the natural requirements of the coming great railroad enterprise, some seventy-five buildings have been erected or commenced the present season, including a capacious male and female seminary, and other public institutions. Then in politics there is tho utmost spirit and enthusiasm, especially among the friends of Breckinridge and Lane, who are very largely in tho majority I am told, both in the town and county. A splendid liberty polo was erected at the court house on Saturday evening, principally by Breckinridge men, and is regarded as a Breckinridge pole, though a few of other inclining aided in its erection. From its top was flung to the breeze a splendid national banner, presented by the ladies of Warrens burg, by the hands of Miss Mary McCown, and handsomcly received on behalf of the Democracy of the:

Mr. Green then essayed to analyze the nominating convention, and proved" conclusively that not only was not Mr. Douglas' nomination a regular and national one, but that Mr. Breckinridge's was a national if not a regular one, and that Mr. Douglas is decidedly a sectional nominee. Thus, when the Douglas platform was adopted, he got ten Southern votes, and the balance were all from the Republican States of tho North. True, they were Democratic votes, but from the States which gave no Democratic electoral votes for President. But when the Breckinridjo platform was con structed, it was endorsed by the entire South, except

THE DEMOCRACY OF MICHIGAN GIRDING ON THEIR ARMOR. The meeting of the National Democracy of Michigan, at Bagg's Hotel in Detroit on the 24th inst., embraced Delegates representing all portions of the Slate, and amour? them we recognized names familiar

as household words, to the Democracy, in its contests with the enemy. The Detroit Tribune, an opposition paper, in publishing the proceedings, has the candor to say: " The Breckinridge and Lane meeting in this city yesterday was a much larger demonstration than the Douglas men had supposed possible. Any person who will Took at the list of names of the gentlemen who engaged in tho proceedings of the convention, will recognize among them many of the able, influential, and leading Democrats of the State men who have figured in conventions, held national and state offices, and been always ready to expeud time and money for the success of the Democratic party. There were about 150 persons present at the meeting, repn senting all portions of the State, which was certainly very respectable when we reflect that the call was out but a few days, and that the Douglas papers carefully kept it from their readers. Among the gentlemen most conspicuous in tho meeting was Hon. Henry Ledyard, son-in-law of Gen. Cass, and it is known that'he fully represents the views of his distinguished relative. When the Convention adjourned, the members called upon Gen. Cass, and were cordially received by him, anil fully assured of his sympathy and endorsement.

This is an untrue nd deceptiv0 representation of the issue between Breckinridge and Lane, and the party they repre sent, adhere to Congressional non-intervention--to the policy of leaving the settlement of the slavery question to the people of the Territories. They stand, on that question, precisely where they did in '56. The issue between them aud Douglas is not on that question at all; but upon the new position of Douglas, taken since '56, that a Territorial Legislature may abolish slavery, notwithstanding the decision of the Supreme Court that the Constitution prohibits such an exercise of power. The real issue is, whether the Constitution shall be respected and obeyed ; whether the decisions of the Supreme Court shall be regarded ; whether Southern becomes a State. Breckinridge is opposed to it, and : contends that the Constitution shall be obeyed, and; HE WILL TURN OUT THE OFFICE-HOLDERS -- WHEN THE SKY FALLS HE WILL CATCH LARKS.

If Mr. lollla bas to be run upon crutches in Georgia, it would be best to take him off the track, and if Mr. Bell is so weak in Georgia as to need the aid of Douglas, it would be a wLe thing on the part of Mr. Bell to withdraw. The fight is between Lincoln and Breckinridge, and all out-side arrangements like this between the Bell party and the Douglas party in Georgia will come to nothing. '

IN La Mksii.la, Arizona, July 6, 1860. Our town is wild with tho excitement caused by the arrival of the great Overland, bringing the news of the nomination of Breckinridge and Lane, and, if wo may judge of the feeling throughout the States, by the enthusiasm manifested by the squatters of Arizona, tho .Breckinridge ticket will sweep the country like a whirlwind. We, who have practically demonstrated the Douglas humbug of " squatter sovereignty," know enough to cause us to curse the day he ever advanced the theory. . It is one great humbug, and today there cannot be found enough Douglas men in Arizona to fire one round over his grave in November . - i ?i .i" ...in t ries of the United States assures me that the thousands of smiatters recrard his doctrines in the same licht as we do here. The excitement caused by the discovery of the gold mines near here is fast dying away ; most of the persons who went from this valley have returned, and are all more or less disappointed in the diggings. In fact, the " placers " are not extensive, nor is there an abundance of water for the few now there ; therefore, our advice is, stay at home. Let well enough alone. You will only meet with disappointments and hardships you don't dream of, if you come. Our weather is excessively hot, but we have been blessed with numerous and abundant showers of rain lately, which have been of great help to our corn croj), and which insures the prospect of a fine crop this season. Our town is improving very rapidly; many large and fine buildings are being erocted for stores, dwellings, etc., and we are indebted to New York thrift and enterprise for the erection of one of the finest buildings to be found in the Territory. This building is being erected by Col. De Pry the and Capt. Ed. Dickinson, formerly of Rome, N. Y., and when completed will be an ornament to our place. , The grape crop ia very fine this year, and it is estimated that there will be"at least 250,000 " fracas" of wine manufactured in the Valley this season. The wine manufactured here is very fine indeed, and will compare favorably with the best French and English wines brought to this country.. But I must close this hastily written scrawl, ere the mail closes. , . Yours, etc., C. THINGS TO BE REMEMBERED BY THE PEOPLE. : That every Democratic United States Senator save only Mr.'Pugh and Mr. Douglas, endorses the nomination of Breckinridge and Lane, and will render good aid in electim; them. KEEP' IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE! That in the House of Representatives three-lifths at least, of the Democratic members, go the same ticket. KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE! That ex-President Pierce, and so far as heard from, every member of his Cabinet, are openly in the field for Breckinridge and Lane, the Union find the Constitution. KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE! That James Buchanan and every member of his Cabinet, including Geri. Cass, the leader of the Democracy in the campaign of 18 J8, are firm in their support of the nominees of the Democracy Breckinridge and Lane. KEEP IT-BEFORE THE PEOPLE! That Hon. Daniel S. Dickinson, of New York, and the most prominent men of the party in every State of the Union, have declared the same way. KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE! That seventeen of the States of the Union are as certain to cast their votes for Breckinridge and Lane as that the Bun will rise on the morning of the election. KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE! That the Electoral College consists of 303 votes,two thirds of which are 202 Douglas' vote on the last ballot was 181 votes or 20J less than the requisite two-thirds which his friends at Charleston voted for. KEEP IT BEFORE THE PEOPLE ! That when it became apparent, to the friends of Judge Douglas that ho could not receive 20 more votes, then they gave him the regular (!) nomination by a tricl; and declared he was " nominated unanimously." THE WHOLE TRUTH IN A NUT-SHELL. The whole number of votes cast were 194 There were 108 delegates absent, and not voting, even after the admission of the bogus delegates from Alabama and Louisiana. Deducting these, there were but 189 regular legal delegates or 123 less than a full Convention present. Of thc Free State delegates, 3 from Maine, 3 from Massachusetts, 2J from Connecticut, 4i from New Jersey, and 1 7 from New York 30 in aft had seceded. Steubenville Union. (35" The New Orleans Delta says of George Sanders, the inimitable punch-brewer, ' his last fight is Hi loftiest his last labor the most Herculean. This capsheaf of his audacity is to ' put Douglas through' Douglas, whom he ruthlessly slew in 1852 by Ms Fogyhobia Douglas, whom he again ' set back' in 1856 by his Buchananism Douglas, whom he will annihilate in 1860 by the great zeal of his support.
