Reader, (supposing you to be an old, middle-aged, or young man,) if yon could believe that Douglas is following in the footsteps of Birney, Van Buren, and Hale, and that his squatter sovereignty dogma will bring about the same state of things in the territories as the abolition and free soil doctrines ofBirney,Vaii Buren, and Halo, would you not labor with all your energies to defeat his election ? He occupies, you may rest assured, the same ground that they did in 1844, '48, and '52. His territorial policy will lead to

Do not support the policy of either Douglas or Lincoln, which will make some States the inferiors of others. Go for equality of men, and equality of States.

We have denied the charge of the Sentinel, that the friends of Breckinridge, to any considerable number, voted for the Republican State ticket. The Sentinel has offered no proof to sustain its charge. J therefore, stands branded with falsehood. Well, let us see how the Evansville Journal, fortified as it is by the figures of the official canvass, refutes the allegation of the State Sentinel. Hear it: "We can demonstrate lo a certainty, that not only did the Breckinrige men not vote for Lane, but that Hendricks ran ahead of Law throughout the District. We have the official tables from all the counties of the District except two Martin and Daviess. In the eirrht remaining counties we find that Law got 11,717 votes: llendneks ll.aif. iiiusiiwiu oe seen mai Hendricks ran 202 ahead of Law in eight counties. !

Mr. Cunningham is roallv believed to be a Breckinridge man, and he is the only man on the State ticket whom the leaders .. 1.. T". of that party hereabouts worked for. In six counties that we have the complete official tables from Vanderburgh, Spencer, Dubois, Knox, Pike, and Warrick, Ilendrick's total vote was 8,728; Cunningham's 8,G83. So Hendriccs ran ahead of even Cunningham ' 45 in six counties! And in Vanderbureh, where ; Hendricks got 1,919 votes, . Cunningham only got 1,904. Of course the Breckinridge men could not have even scratched Hendricks' name to any great extent, much less could they have voted for Lane, That we received little or no help from them in this j countv and District is very evident; neither did we in j the State generally.

" The Eallot or the Bullet ! " That arch fiend of mischief the man who perjured ed himself when he swore to support the Constitution of the United States, and then said that he must obey ballot, or, if not, they shall have the bullet! This is decidedly plain talk, aud if Seward can only be prevailed upon to keep the stump until election time, he would be sure to turn the scale in Aew Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York, at any rate. We might ask, n view ot such language troin me uepuunean lean ers, is the party crazy ? Do the business men ot this city, who chim to be " Republicans," endorse such sentiments? If those words had come from Garrison or Philips, we should not have been surprised, but coming from Seward, they are worthy of remembrance, and vet as extreme as they arc, they are but the " Republican " creed logically carried out.

I told you in mv last that llorton s listrict would give Douglas at least 3.000 majority over Breckinridge. But all is changed now. Uur men are triumphant The Douglas men are whipied and cowed. We are gaining even- day, and on the 6th of November will give Breckinridge a rousing majority. I went to Platte City last Friday to hear that old war horse, David R. Atchison. He made a telling speech for Breckinridge and Lane. He was followed by General Bela M. Hughes, in one of tho best speeches that I ever heard. It was a masterly argument. After he had concluded, the crowd insisted, ma(le 8 Doia, ..,,eeoh. and he was replied to by Mr. Green, in a manner which not onlv demolished poor Mr. Deane, but completely routed and dispersed the Douglasites, many of whom were taken prisoners, and have promised to fight manfully for Breckinridge and Lane. Green was in his finest humor, full of life and fun, and pitched into the squatters with a force and energv which were overwhelming. His fun and sarcasm kept the crowd in a roar of laughter. We had a glorious meeting here yesterday. Col. Churchill made a powerful speech, one which told not only upon the hearts but upon the minds of his hearers.' It was a convincing argument and perfectly nnanswerable. Several Douglasites told me that it satisfied them that Douglas was not the nominee of the rartv, and that tbey would not vote for bini, but for Breckinridge.
Senator Greeu followed in one of his very best speeches, aud confirmed the crowd in the intention to support our glorious candidates. I have never seen such enthusiasm as tho people manifested. In the evening Gen. Bela M. Hughes aud John B. Hughes, of Clinton, made telling speeches to a large crowd. This county will give Breckinridge and Lane a fine majority. Green, Churchill, and Butnet, (a noble, gallant fellow,) speak at Liberty,Clay county, to-morrow, and will keep the fires a-burning. Everywhere throughout the Northwest we hear of an immense reaction in favor of our candidates. The Bell men are doing nothing can do nothing. They

Yours, truly, Squatter Polygamy, Many of tho Douglas Democrats are, as we believe, sincere christians, and cannot be made, when they know it, to give their influence in any way to the establishment of anti-christian and heathenish institutions or customs in any of tho States present or future of the Union. And yet, a moment's reflection will show them that every argument employed by Mr. Douglas, either in support or defense, of this peculiar doctrine of squatter sovereignty, or the rights of the people in the territories to make just such laws, and establish just such institutions as they may desire, without, the possibility of Congress to interfere in any way, is an argument in support and defense of the peculiar institutions of Mormonism. Utah territory possesses a population of 60,000, all of whom are polygamists. And if Mr. Douglas' splatter logic is worth anything at all, it not only establishes polygamy as one of the legal institutions of the United States, but it places it completely in the, power of Brigham Young to fix that foulest excrescence of heathenish prostitution, upon all the embryo States contiguous to his dominions. For, he can at any time that he shall see fit to do so, send from 5,000 to io.od" of his saints without calling upon emigrant aid societies for help into the adjoining territories, and by a judicious u-e of their votes, give tone and complexion to the whole territorial legislal ion. Again, some of the professed disi losures point to the existence in the Mormon ritual of human sacrifice as one of the sublime rites of the Mormon church. What, according to squatter logic, is there to prevent the open promulgation of this, as one of the lenets of the church, and one of tin; national customs of citizens of the United States whether, in the form of infanticide, 'or widow-burning, or the annuaf slaughter of selected victims, as may suit tho taste of these latter day saints ? Itmay. it is true, be objected, that that would be horrible'; it would be legalizing murder. But what of that V Have not the people of the territories the right to regulate their domestic institutions in their own way? And is not their religion a domestic institution? And are you a good squatter sovereign, and vet afraid to trust the people of the territories to establish just such forms of religion and religious worship as they please ? We repeat if thc dogma of squatter sovereignty is supported at all, by truth, it goes lo the extent of establishing Brigham the first, not only on the throne, as he blasphemously claims, of Jesus Christ, in Utah, but in just so many of the new territories as he may see fit to take possession of Illinois Stale Democrat. More Proof Against the' Traitor. : Col, Andrew J. Isaeks, of'lhif city, long before the present controversy with Douglas slated in his own office in this place, in the presence of his law partners, of Mr. Robert L. Wilson, and of Messrs. E.Magruder Lowe, Daniel L. Henry, and John W. Henry, that such a letter had been 'written by Mr. Douglas in regard to the, Leeomfon Constitution, as has been stated by the late John Calhoun, by Mr. Green B. Redmon, by Oliver Diefendorf, and by Mrs. Calhoun, through'the letter of her daughter to Oliver Diefendorf, was written, and that Mr. Diefendorf, Miss Calhoun, and her brother, said it was in possession of the family. In the same conversation, Col. Isacks said the letter, before being sent here, had been submitted to Mr. Jacob Thompson, Mr. Buchanan's Secretary of the Interior. . Why Colonel Isacks and Mr. Thompson did not expose the traitor at the time that he was ' apostatizing' and denouncing his own scheme, is for them to say, and not us. We believe that Thompson has been, and still is, in league with him, and that he was instrumental in the suppression, for then and now, the great bulk of the patronage of his oflice in this Territory is bestowed upon Douglas men, rank opponents of the Administration. It is also known that Colonel Isacks, about the time Governor Walker was leaving this Territory, wrote a letter to Douglas apprising him that Walker was going to oppose the Leeonipton Constitution, and "cut under" Douglas for the Presidency in the Free States, and it is believed here that that letter caused Douglas to change. Hurrah for Douglas! Leavenworth (Kansas') Dispatch. Friends of Breckinridge and Lane ! Get Your Electoral Tickets, and Distribute Them, ,-y : We uruentlv call upon our friends throughout thc State to prepare themselves with tickets for the approaching election, immediately. There is not a day or an hour to be lost. Every county, city, town and school district should be provided with ballots, containing the names of the Breckinridge candidates for Electors, correctly printed. The utmost vigilance should be exercised to see that the names of none ot the Douglas candidates are inserted under the names of Joiix C. BitECKiMtiDtiE and Joseph Lane. The words ' National Democratic Ticket" appear at the head of our ballot; but it is very easy for the Douglas schemers to place the same words above the names of their candidates. Let all true Democrats compare tho names on their tickets with those at the head of. the Old Line Guard, before they distribute them at the polls, or put them into the hands of the voteisj. Let them look out for all kinds of trickery and imposition on the day of the election.
