So will thousands of other good and true Democrats, the Old Guard, who have never flinched in the hour of danger.

j. Breckinridge Demonstration in Laporte i ,'. flrmriTTr

J The reporter of the Laporte Herald lias recently given accounts of the several meetings nnd doings of j the Douglas and Lincoln men in Laporte county, which j have appeared, upon their face, tolerably fair. Ho; now gives the following account of the Bkbckinhi doe j demonstration at Kingsbury, in that county, which j also seems to possess tho same merit : . - Democratic Meeting at Kingsbury. Last; Saturday we concluded, as we had so far in the cam-1 paign attended both Republican and Douglas meet-; ings in this vicinity, to vary the programme a little, , and go to a Breckinridge pole raising in the little village of Kinrrsburv, six miles south of this city. AVo ! j i.en repeatedly proclaimed throughout the State by i Douglas stump speakers that there were not to exceed ! ! twenty-five Breckinridge men in this county, and v believe that report was never contradicted by any ; tfcukriy astonislied t0 wilnC8S some four or five hundred persons assembled on this occa-! i s;on- j j After the pole had been sufficiently propped up and j the guy-ropes taken down, the stars and stripes were 1 run up, amid the firing of cannon and cheers from the ; alulicnc0. The polo Ts a very neat one, some over a j mn(lred feet high. The Union Mills Brass Band was ; 1 present, and done good execution at intervals during j the afternoon. This Band we had not heard since , ceneiu. Alter mat was concuiueu, a uoucu. formed, headed bv a Band, and then thirty-three La dies dressed in while, each wearing a beautiful badge over the left shoulder, designating the state repre sented, and a green scarf over the right, nicely lap- I riled by the side ; and then followed the balance of ! the assembled multitude, to a grove just south of town, j where a platform and seats had been erected for the ! speaking. On arriving there, Mr. M. K. Farrand, of j I this city, was introduced to the audience, and spoke an hour and a half or such a matter in vindication of the ! Breckinridge cause, in which speech he gave Lincoln ' and Douglas some hard knocks. On the whole the allair was a very creditable one for that or any.othcr parly to get up. The crowd was composed of as intelligent and orderly people as we ever saw at a political gathering; no drinking or oth er disreputable practices were observed, and everything passed oft" evidently to the satisfaction of those who participated in getting up the demonstration. At evening, after we had left, we learn the tables were again spread, and many who remained partook i again of the "hospitalities of the occasion, after which younger portion participated in the mazy dance at our friend Tennis' Kinirsbury Hotel, and the older -paired to the Breckinridge Club room, and j "P?J?t several Hours in poiiiicai council The above demonstration was so much superior to anything of the kind that the Douglasites can possibly crct un in this county, we are glad to make such a fa vorable notice of it. We shall, as we always have, treat honorable onoonents in a dignified and manly way ; but with such a truckling, intriguing set of clap trap politicians as the jJouglas party or tins county, i 1 , i .i l r i.. we nave to cnange uiai course. t e rejuiu.-, nuni-n i, to believe that a few short months will entirely dispel all traces of the foul Douglas organization, and in its stead the Breckinridge party will stand up lionoraniy to contest the race with the Republicans for power, James K.

At first blush, the free-lovers of Douglasism assured us that their political idol was the " regular nominee,'' and for this reason entitled to the Democratic support. The facts and figures having wholly exploded this catch, and placed it beyond the pale of any decent respect for truth and common honesty, the next resort was found in the "majority'' dodge. This, however, only served to expose the infamous black-leg gambling by which the unit rule was adopted, and that majority obtained, and another pretext is placed upon the boards. Democrats are solicited to vote for Douglas in 'order to carry Indiana, so that her electoral vote will throw the election into the House, and the (socalled) National candidates be elected. With the time-servers and tricksters who are engaged in this scheme, it is of no consequence that they solicit honest men to vote against their principles. The doctrine with them is not now " Principles, not jUen. Mic cess to a demagogue and political hypocrite is every thing, and if temporary success is to be attained, it matters not to them what sacrifice of principle may be required; the achievement is the beginning and the end with them. A large majority of the Demociacy of Indiana are notoriously inflexibly opposed to that diluted, dish-water Black Republicanism which, denying the equality of the States, asserts as Democratic the pernicious doctrine of squatter sovereignly. The Douglas ring-masters appreciate this fact, and hence desire to evade and baffle a discussion of principle. They prefer to steal the votes of honest Democrats away from their principles under a specious and false plea that the act is a simple loan to a desirable conse-i quence. If voters cherish principles, they should! su rmort them at the crucible the ballot-box, and, : from no inducements, should they ever barter them' awnv nnon nrctcnecs of expediency, policy, and avail-! flisannoint-' ment, defeat, and dishonor. But this' pretence of carrying Indiana for Douglas U mendaciously made, and, in fact, holds no foundation in truth. Mr. Douglas' Central Committee refused our overtures for a united ticket, and why ? Because they knew that eveu with such a coalition, the rule or ruin spirit of their master had sown discord through our ranks, sufficient to work our defeat, even with as complete and perfect a coalition as it was possible for ii to make. In no event, is it possible for us, even with a coalition, to carry Indiana, and this was, and is, the reason why the olive-branch was so gracefully waived away. If, then, the combination could not achieve the object, how comes it that we are invited to vote for Douglas here in Indiana, for the ulterior purpose of electing Brkckixridge and Lane? if the vote united could not do this, pray how is the rlced to be done with a divided house Y lo waive the question, then, as to the moral turpitude of sacrifi cing cherished, just principles to questions of policy, is it not plain that appeals begging this sacrifice of po litical princiiles under a palpably false plea, are utterly unworthy the coldest estimate of common honesty, however compatible they may be with the spirit which has, from the very beginning, characterized the Douglas crusade ? Every Tote cast for the Douglas ticket in Indiana, must and will be count ed as for the semi-Abolition Wflmot-Proviso doctrine of Territorial legislation, asadvooaUd by Judge Douglas, and we beg the voter whose sentiments are against

this creed, to beware of carving for himself a record which, so far as political principle is concerned, differs and disagrees with ultra-Black Republicanism only in this, that it is leas bold and fearless, and more cowardly and deceitful. !!

From Laporte County, Lapoute, September 4, I860. Mr. Editor: I have been watching the political movements with great care, ever since the nominations were made at Baltimore, and am fully convinced that we, as a party, are not sustaining the great national principles which wo profess, while we allow ourselves to be in any way connected with the sec tion al Douglas worsl lipe r. : -r The articles urging the importance of forming a State ticket, in your issue of August 25th, meet the hearty concurrence of the Old Guard in this vicinity, The .course pursued by Stephen A. Douglas for the last seven years has driven thousands of the standardbearers from the National Democratic ranks to swell the number of the Black Republicans. These men look back, and sigh for the good old days of pure Democracy. They left the party because it bowed down anil worshiped the ever-changing Squatter Sovereign. Many arc looking with eager and anxious eyes upon our movements, and when we declare that these help less Douglasites are no longer upheld by us, they will arain return with ioy to their first love. This is no. child of imagination ; it is a fact that can, and I trust, will be. demonstrated in our own Slate. It is this old and strong attachment in the breasts of the Republicans that makes them so much more friendly to our cause than the Douglasites arc. It is a well-known fact that our State ticket is composed of Douglas men, and I ask in the name of common sense, what have j we to hope for from them '? What is now the grand J object of the- Douglas Democracy, if it is not to utterly i destroy (he last spark of the Old Line National I)e-j mocracyV Why, then, should we render aid and; comfort to our sworn enemies, by placing men in the highest offices in the gift of the. State, only to increase tlieir power te do us harm ? j Now wo hear their siren songs, while they holdout the ballot box in one hand, and vainly attempt to con-, ceal the tomahawk which they hold in the other. No j sooner will the last vote, be deposited, than tho warwhoop will be raised throughout the length and breadth j of our State, and the, watch-Word will he war to the ! biife, ini knife to the hill! "They have gone out; from among us because they were not of us," and shall j we follow, and elect their men V No sooner will the j news be proclaimed that the State ticket is elected, . than a great Douglas victory will be proclaimed i throughout the Union, and some of our Slate officers ; will take the front ranks and lead our enemies on to a ; battle which, without our assistance in electing officers j for them, would be without a ray of hope, and totally disarmed. I believe it is the earnest desire of the Old Guard in this county and throughout the State, that a Slate ticket be formed at once, and thus give the National party an opportunity to east their votes for men who are friends, and not sworn enemies, to the pure prinei-; pies of National Democracy. We earnestly hope that the Old Line Guard, in all, parts of the State, will speak out on this subject. Let: us assert our independence by forming a State ticket, j Till this is done our foes get the full benefit of our ! labor. Let us raise our banner, and fight manfully in': the great cause, whose final triumph is certain, It is not consistent with- out long established rules as a parly to support our enemies, and I trust that our leading men will listen to Hie suggestions which are offered ! by the lovers of pure Democracy. "To vote or not! to vole " the Douglas State ticket, is a grave question. We want a ticket of our own. 11. From Ripley County. j Napoleon, Ixd., Sept, 9. Mr. Editor .-The slumbering spirit of the National Democracy has at length been aroused in old Kipley. Dr. B. F. Mullen, the champion of our party in this end of the State, made a speech at Versailles on Thursday, and at this place on last evening. His speech here was a clincher on Douglas and dis-; organization. The first part of his address was an ap-, peal to his old associates for a patient hearing, a calm ' judgment,and a just verdict. He recalled to the minds . of old Democrats the past struggles of the party m tins , county, for the ascendancy, and pointed proudly to , tho victories they had won. His speech was a logical : annihilation of Lincolnism and Douglasism, and al-1 though there were two or three Douglasites present! the Doctor charged, without refutation, the Little Squatter with treason to its party and its time-honored principles ; and defiantly dared his adherents to name a Democratic vote ever given by Douglas, or a moment of time he ever affiliated with his party, in the United States Senate, since 1857. This speech of the Doctor's has given new life and energy to. our cause. I see quite a number of the Old Line Guard is taken ' here. I will try and increase its circulation, for, in my judgment, it is just the paper for the crisis. The Na- ' tionals are to have a pole-raising in Versailles, at an early day. I will send you an account of their doingsHarrington, the Douglas elector for the third dLtrict, spoke here a few evenings since. If I am not mis taken, he is the same man who officiated as " Stump Chairman" of the bolting wood-pile Convention that nominated the traitor, Can-, in order (o defeat the gallant. Hufdies. He's a nice teacher of Democratic principles and " usage," surely, Yours. Hickory Birch. General Lane in Cincinnati. The old hero, who entitled himself to the nation's gratitude, on the fields of Mexico, and who has been selected as one of the standard-bearers of the national flag of the Union, arrived last evening in the city, and took rooms at the Burnet nouse, wnere ne was caiieu on by a number of his friends, who had heard of his arrival, and received them in his old-fashsoned, hearty style plain and unostentatious, but as warm and cordial as is the heart of the veteran. We understand Gen. Lane is on his way to Evansville, and "that his stay here cannot be prolonged beyond to-day. It would, indeed, have been gratifying to us if it could have been otherwise, for his presence everywhere stira up old memories, and brings up a multitude of friends. Cincinnati Courier. Sept. 10. ELEOTIONJICKETS. In reply to several inquiries, we will state, that we , are prepared to print tickets tor State, Congressional,; and County officers, on good paper, for $4.00 for the ! first thousand, and $2.00 for each additional thousand. Onlers received one day, can be returned by express, the day following. If onlers are sent, be particular to write each name plain and distinct, so that there can be no mistake. All orders must be accompanied with the money, to receive attention. Address. ELDER & HARKXESS, till Or. I. IxnlAXAFOMH. 1
