The Lincoln-Douglas Debates.

We learn that the Republicans of Ohio are getting out a first-rate document for the campaign of 1860, consisting of the dee bates between Lincoln and Douglas in the campaign of 1858. The pamphlet will contain the seven joint discussions and the half dozen preliminary speeches on both sides, together with the-prefatory correspondence between the parties. We believe it is tile intention also to print Mr. Lincoln’s two speeches delivered in Ohio last fall, in the same volume. The copies of Mr. Lincoln’s speeches are taken from the Press trid Tribune reports, and Mr. Douglas’ from those of •the Chicago Times. Norwich (England) Mercury says that “after years of mechanical labor and mathematical tests, Mr. Janies White, of Wickham Market, has completed and has now in constant operation a self-winding clock, which determines the time with untailing accuracy, continuing a constant motion of itself, never requiring to be wound up, and which will perpetuate its movements etis long as its component parts exist.” As this would be nothing more nor less than perpetual motion, it would require more than a simple statement of this kind to prove the existence of such an instrument — New York Courier.
