Wort and Turpi.'. SpeecUea I. 1 o(
Mr. Morton od Mf. Torpie, candidates for Lieut. Governor, closed the mien ol appointments, at Sullivan, on Friday. We attended and bad th pleeaure of listening to them. The discussion wis opened by aVpeeb from Mr. Morton of one hour, followed by Tnraia in a sneer h cf an hsnr and one half .I eln.in Mr. Hf ,1 in a half Konr. Mr. Morton's opening speech was mas-terlv-elesr. logics!, conclusive. He preo J 1 presented tbe crest doetrin.e of the Rer,M;,.n r,.M.;iK .onrK fnrr. w.th aa I much intellectual power.and with ao much , , , . . . . ii r j I eloquence, that all. the most illy informed I must bare folly understood them. He exposed the fallacies of the Democratic party with such irreiiitible arguments, that the most blinded Democratic partisan dupe, could not help but feel uneasy for the fate of the party to which he belonged. He showed that the Republican party of todsy, occupied precise' the same grounds on the question of human slavery, as diJ the fathers of this Republic as did the most illottrious patriots of tbe past as did Washington aadJeffeiaon &nd Madison and the Adamses. As did, in these more modern times, Hmnegan and Joe McDon.1,1 -T iiifl ITriirttt. and Fitch and Bright. He showed that the Democratic i. f.v-..c... -" - "6 I mrt ni the silts bi ina sea. d uj r owie (W,ntion. in the Tear 1S49. adapted a platform, which embodie. precisely the I... j - 1..!.- i. .1... st. snme doctrines in relation to slavery ex tension, that the Republican party advocates now.' He showed the glaring, un manly, inconsistency of the Douglaa Democracy, and of Mr. Douglas himself, in advocating the doctrine of Popular Sover eignty, and at tbe same time sustaining , the doctrine of tbe Supreme Court in tbe Dred Scott case, when the Utter rcots up the former and wholly and entirely destrye it. He d-relt upon this point and showed that the doctiioe of this opinion, ik. .i..linMr had Lheriirht. w... .u.. .1 under tbe Federal Constitution, to t.ke bis slaves into all the common Territories. wbile the Dougla. doctrine of Popular s.r.i.ntT.ie.th.tth. peoble of a Territnrw have tbe lieht to exclude slavery . . .-.v.. it- ..Vorl .wasa.mam. vni.w ii ri i i n l Lie la ...b. uicicuuui i. j - - if a Conttüutxontl ngbt couia do mus vaseo e . - ini.Ktn .liirpn r.vprv one Die? ent aaw tbe soundness of the argument and the demagoguiim of Mr. Dougla. and bis . . B5 . ArXA lUUUWC't a u .w - - - n " which are in direct conflict with each other. Through out this speech of one hour, Mr. Morton towered a giant in intellectual strength, and a master in debate, ne avoia.a r.adrl nothinsT. but met all of the! rreat issues of tbe day, with a manly willinenesa that was refreshing to his friend, and perplexing to bis political foes. He maintained the true dignity of his genuine mannooa iron nrst io iv, u in to the low pool of tbe mere politician ... : u: -never indu-ging id opproon.u. rF.h--never covering up tbe truth with the eaute of aopbiatry, but meeting every proposition aod every question now Deiore . i i i- ii- (l..,f,M the people, furly and fully, face to face and explaining tnem wun a clearness buu force altogether nncommon. He stood proudly op an able and complete representatire of the great doctrines of tbe Repub lican party, and bore iti banner aloft to the withering discomfiture of bie opponents, no we ucn(utcu uii..... . After Mr. Morton had spoken his hour, Mr. Turpie, the Douglas Democratic candidate for Lieut. GoTeanor.coameBcea dii hour aod a half harangue, lie began wun the Dedarat:ou of independence, ana roa ed with a vulgar anecdote. This was our fift hMrjD of tbe distinguished ge ;entlenaBa He pitched hie voice io the begin oegiuning. to the aame key he kept it to the one continuou, monotone from I . . ... .a i s . if. t.. m i hisii wo r first to last. Mr. Turpie is a third rate political speaker, and one of the most nnscrupulous of the Willard school of politicians. He appeals all the time to the prej odices of his besrers, and never to their intellect. His argumenta are generally ef the clap-trap order, seeking to overthrow ihe "lu'ion- of h!' b J ,ow witUci,mi Tnlgar aDecdotor an obsenc. I e f .! 1 question, aiu wnen ne u,u CU,,C,UUBU u" I a 0. .

He said "that Iowa was a part of the North western Territory, aid covered by the Ordinai.ce of 1787." Ee said, "that the Republicans struck bsidi with our old enemy.

He said, "the slaveholder had the right to take bis slaves ioto the Territories, but hi. holding ibem there, depended on the law of the Territory." He said, "that as long as the policy of the Government was intervenlio, Whitcomb and Fitch, and Mc Donald, aod Law, were of the opinion thai Coogres. possessed tbe power to exclude I slavery from the Territories, but now that the policy of tbe government was changed to inttrttkllan, these gentlemen denied that power, aod that if Mr. Morton was rith thero in 1849, be was a devilish slow ! coach to be flere oow." He aaid "that the Republicans had conspired together to rob the people of Kansas and NeSraoka and give it all to the negroes of Maine " He said, "th it the reason why the Republi cans were so oppose J to the Dred Scott d - I cision, wis, tbst it decided a negro was oot a white mao.

Douglas and Johnsou. The Meanest I
TUtng yet. I NoDiitr.or bodrof men. er er did a meaner I . or more disreputable thing, than did those who assembled at Bsltimore.when wey or oate Mr. I termioed at every sacrifice to nomi Douglas for the Presidency. While they pro tested thst their desire for this, waa not so much owing to their lore for the man, . as their adherence to the great doctrines of which they said be was tbe ezponant. They vera for Douglas because he was the r- i champion of Popular Sovereignty the originator of the idea that tbe people of a Territory had tbe right to determine the character of their domestic institutions for themselves. It was for this that they ad hered to tbe Little Giant. For this they stuck to him while the great party to which they belonged was breaking in fragments around them. It waa for this principle, they asserted tbey would atsod. ii t II lk. ra1r f Jnmii n.t ff. fnr tin mall . wno WM "PPse The Couventio.i split in twain, and the remnant nominated Mr. Douglas, and plced him on a Popular Sovereignty plat '. By this act they drove, in one fell iliC CUUIV OUUVU IIUUJ IUCW, To reconcile this Southern vote, and make the party agaio barmouious, these same men who nominated Slrpheo. A. Douglas le einsehe teas for Popular Sovereignty, ca-tt their votes for Beojtmin Fitzpatrick, who 0 w , doclriDe . Vhat ' ' . 3 is, has beeu, and always will be, opposed, other word in our language can so express the feeling that honorable men must have for such conduct, but meannttt, absolute meanne$. Lower aud further down than trickery. More contemptible and censureable than political double dealing. It was the quintescence of double distilled meanness. Douglas nominated as the exponant of Popular Sovereignty, to catch Northern votes, and Fitzpatrick nominated because he is opposed, in every particular, to this same doctrioe, for the purpose of catching Southern votes. Ho i - - "stained the LecomPU,u policy through out, voting fur the Lecompton bill, aod '; 7 '"eonf t'oversj, and concurred in the pohcy of jecting Mr. Douglaa from the Chairman I ship ef the Committee on Territories. His vote stands recorded iu the affirmative on tbe Senatorial Caucus revolutions, confXpre88ly to put Mr. Douglas and ... v . .6 ceraue pariy He is the perfect antipode of Mr, Dough las upon the very doctrines that have made the Little Giant friends iu the North. Yet the Douglas men in the Baltimore Convention, so far forgot themselves, as to pnt this man on the same ticket with their favorite but Mr. Fittpatrick so far remembered himself. as to refuse to play a part so Janus faced. He declined to accept the nomination, and aome person or persons. some individual party or faction put Herschel V. Johnson of Georgia, in his stead In this, the corrupt wing of this most corropt faction, is as unfortunate as before They are more fortunate in getting a less honorable man than was Mr. Fitzpatrick, but equally unfortunate in getting one, whose political record, is dir, .... . , teeth of the doctrine of popular rt-ctly in the sovereign ty. In the proceedings ol tbe Democratic state Convention held at Milledgeville, on June 4ih. called to take action in regard to tne secession oi roosioi ms ueorgis une gates at Charleston it seems that a Bus ioe Committee of 24 was appointed, ol which Herschel P Johnson was ooe. This Committee dissgreed as to the propriety o appoiuting new delegates to Baltimore, of gcceder . and a I few who preferted to see Douglas elected to a dilution of the partv. favored that Btep ; and the consequence was, that two n pre9ntf1, m,jorily one by tweuly members of the Committee, and a minority one by oar members, which latter division included Herrebel V. Johnson wno viiairmao.mirouuceu tue mmoruy I t - ri . i i.i : . rePorl iac two reporu were aiseuhstsa oy van I a . a a ous persons, Mr. Johnson defending his "J Howell Cobb, Secretary of the Treas ury, acting a. pacificator. Th. Utter gen tlemau stated that there was "no djfftrenee in the p rinciplei enunciated in both the ma jority aod minority reports. There were only two minor differences ; one was, that the rosjority report endorsed the secession from the Charleston Convention while the minority neither enJorsed or comroen ded censured the action of the Georgia lea. .a a a ' delegates there." I ne result was, mat tne m-ijonty report w" dPed by a vote of 299 to 41, when the minority, under the lead of Mr. John on. ttctded, and orgnni2d another Convention and appointed the hogua delegates .

Gentlemex In accordance with tbe ver bal assurance which I gave you when you placed in my bands the authentic evidence of the nomination for the Presidency, by tbe National Convention of the Democratic party, I now send you my formal acceptance. Upon a careful examination of tbe platform of Principles adapted at Charles, ton, and reaffirmed at Baltimore, with an additional resolution which is in perfect harmony with tbe others; I find it to be a faithful embodymeut of the lime honored principles of the Democratic party, as the same were proclaimed and understood by all parties in the Presidential contest, of 1848, 1852, and 1856. Upon lookii g iuto the proceeding, of the Convention, also, I find tbat the nomination was made with great unanimity in the presence and with the conference of more than two thirds of the whole number of delegated, and in each accordaoce With the long established usage of the party, my inflexible purpose to be a candidate nor accept the nomination.

Do well, of Dauphin, offered two resolutions, which were adopted by a vote of 45 against 15, as follows: 1st. Calling on the Democracy -of the State to unite in the support of Gen. Fobtor for Oovernor, and to bury all differen ces on the Presidential question in local election. 2J. R-cotnmeoding- the Democratic par ty of tie Stale to unite on the electoral ticket formed al Heading, ou the following basis: If it should appear, on ascertsin. ng the result iu other Sutea of the Union mat by castiugjhe entire vote of PennylvaoiV for Douglas it would elect him: aaid electors shall be under obligation to caat .aid vol. in that wa
If said vote would not elect Dougla.
but elect Breckinridge, then aball it be caat for Breckinridge. If the said vote will elect neither Douglaa or Breckinridge, then the electors may divide according to their own judgment. Tbe chairman of the committee was authorized to communicate with electors aud obtsin their pledge within 30 daya to act under this obligation. A proposition was made declaring Mr Douglas the nominee of the Democratic party fur President, which' was voted down by aye. 19, nays 43. A large aod enthusiastic meeting was held here this evening, to ratify tbe nomination of Breckinridge and Lane. Hon Bharles J Iogersoll presided. The resolution reported reaffirms the Cincinnalti platform, aod the explanatory resolution reporteJ by the majority of the committee of the Charleston convention. Tiey ajb0 declare that the Front Street . .i ,k. ik. :... r n aod Lane ia entitled to tbe respect aod earnest support of the Democratic party. The German Freu of Indiana. In 1859 there was but one Republiran lierman natier in Indian lh Free pre6se of Indianapolis. It, aloue !iad .iie courare to take a nosition with principles. It, at first, lost patronage by lhe change it made, which has, w. trust, been made good to it since. It it amply recompensed for its devotion to truth and for the sacrifices made in maintaining correct political principies. lhe public may be curious to Kaow how the German press of the Stat stands to day. We will briefly state it. The Volksbote at hvansville was Docratic or, rather, Douglas. untif'aUer the nomination of Lincoln and Hamlin. It now supports the Republican national ana Dtaie nominees, ana win I T . I JO.. "II do g001 service n redeeming the First vuuzitooiuuat oionivfc ium two uvmination'of the slavery loving Democ racy. Its recent change causes con siderable uneasines among the plunder seekers in the Democratic camp, and it is already receiving the maledictions of those who sought to U6 it for base purposes. lhe btaats Zeitung at tort Wayne, heretofore strongly Democratic, has Uken .fiidea with the Republicans. It in the State and National Govern ments, but has had its attention directed more particularly to the gross misgovernment of Allen county by the party which managed by gross fraud to return some 1 ;800 of Democratic majority from the elections in 185C. 8ets its face against such proceedings and ufra a position in the Republican rank for ha nurnoso of work frtrm. And th The Indiana Pof at Lafayette, hither to neutral has deemed it the duty of patriotism to take a decided stand in "avor of Republican principles, aod flings to the breeze the flag of Lincoln aQd Hamlin, Lane and Morton. lo the Jist ol Itepublican Uerman papers we add the Zeitung at Terre"auie ine r re,e "'euer at LApone, ana anew paperto De estaoiisnea snortly at Richmond. All of these papers are published in localities where there I is a large German population and will hare much influence on the result of the approaching elections. The only German Democratic paper in the State is the Volksolatt of this city. It is for Douglas not the Democratic party, lt has long since sunk its party devotions into its manworship, and it.is the admiration it has for the Little Giant, and nothing else, that keeps it within what is left of the Democratic organization. The tables are turned. 1 n 1866 tha Republicans had but one German pa per in the State, lhe Freie Presse of this city. In I860 the Democracy hare but . one German paper the Volksblatt, and it is only so in virtue of the Domination of Douglas by a ramp convention. There is something significant in this.- the majority given for Willard and Buchanan in 1856 will be given to Lane and Lincoln ia 18G0. Ind. Journal How Stands Col. Forsky? Of ccurpe curiosity is felt to kow how Col. Forney stands in the Presidential fight. The Washington correspondent of the N. Y. Herald writes that from present appearancea it is difficult to percei re where the Squatter Sorereignty candidate can secure a single electoral vote, and adds : "Col. Forne v. it is said, will not 6urtort him er - ö, a especially upon the new plank inserted in lhe platform, that the party arewilling to abide by any decision made by the Supreme Court, Forney will assume the position of an independent man, giving aid and comfort equally to all parties in his paper." The Express asks if Edward Everett may not be chosen Vice-President by the Senate. We can perceive at first blush but these three impediments: 1. The Senate must choose from the two highest candidates in the Electoral vote; who will probably be Hamlin and Lane; 2 It is certain to choose Lane in preferenc to either of his two competitors; and 3 It will have oo chance to choose at all, as Hamlin will be elected by the People X. I". Tribune. . jtiT Warfare in the days of Caesar was no mere child's play. In nine years !e had conquered 300 tribes, 800 cities, slain 1,000,000 men, and taken 1, 000,000 prisoners.
