Gov. McRae, or Mississippi, on
DotJGRASISM AND SoUTHEHN RlGHTS.
The Seacoast Democrat stiys fhat Gov.
McRae, the Democratic nominee for Con
gress in the 5th District, in his speecli at
Mississippi City, “expressed his abhor
rence of the Douglas doctrine of non-iu
tervention, and said that should such a con
struction of the Cincinnati Platform pre
vail at the Charleston Convention, he for
one would not submit. He was for indc-1
pendence out of the Union in preference
to dishonor in it, aud rather than the South
shouli^ipgain surrender one single consti
tutional right, would be for a separation
of the Confederacy.”
ear The Washington Star says that
the Republican National Committee, con
sisting of a member from each of the twen
ty-five States and Territories, have issued
b circular to their friends throughout the
Union, urging a thorough organization of
the party in each State, county, and town,
and hinting that to that end an adequate
amount of money will be requisite for the
legal and faithful expenditure of which
they propose to “hold themselves respon
sible." _
Gen. Jo. Lane.—A Washington cor
respondent of a leading Democratic jour
nal, in the West, says:
“In my opinion, Jo. Lane, of Oregon,
is the strong man of the Democracy. He
has hosts of friends here and all over the
country, who will work for his nomination
next year. In looking over the checkered
board of politics, I can see :io man with as
many elements of popularity about him as
is possessed by the Old Marion of the
Mexican War. Personally, politically,
every way, he is every inch the man. He
rose from the mass of humble toilers to
occupy a seat in the Senate of his country.
From a volunteer in the war with Mexico, t
among the brave men who fought with
him, he gained the enviable sobriquet of
“The Marion of the Mexican War,”
showing everywhere on battle and tented
fields, chivalric bravery, and almost wo
manly care and kindness of heart to his
soldiers. His good common sense is pro
verbial. Added to all this, he has never
been anything else than a Democrat, a
Democrat in whom there is no guile,
knowing no section, nothing but the
Union. Give us Jo. Lane in I860, and
we will triumph over the conglomerated
hosts of Opposition.

Judge Douglas’ Letter in the
South,—The Columbia South Carolinian
says of the letter of Senator Douglas:
“Had he stopped at opposing the slave
code for the Territories, we 6hould have
approved of the principles asserted in his
letter; but when he goes on to assert the
power 6f the people of the Territory le
gally to control, by which we understand
him as ineauiug to prohibit or establish it,
then we differ with him essentially. lie
presents a programme to which the South
cannot and will not conform. If that be
the condition of the Democratic harmony,
in the Charleston Convention, ‘.Lea the
party may be regarded as already dis
, solved.”
This is truth plainly spoken, says the
New Hampshire Dtmcsralic Standard.

HON. T. C. HINDMAN AT SEARCY.
West Point, White County, Ark., )
September 5, 1859. $
J. C. Morrili., Esq.,— Sir:—At the Meth
odist Church in Searcy, on Wednesday, Aug.
31st, 1859, being the time appointed liy Col.
T. C. Hindman, for delivering a public ad
dress, a large portion of the citizens of the
county were in attendance.
At the hour of 11 o’clock, Col. Hindman
took the stand, and in a speech of over two
hours length, proceeded to discuss Arkansas
politics. He set forth the history of the so
called Democratic Senatorial canvass of No
vember 9th, 1858, which nominated W. K
Sebastian for United States Senator, show
ing in a clear manner, that avowed know
nothings and disorganize™, were allowed tie
take in its proceedings a part, on a perfecl
equality With democrats. Col. Hindman fell
it his duty to condemn so nefarious a proceed
ing. That duty he performed openly and fear
lessly. He then discussed the course anil
plucked the plumage from Gov. Conway, in
vetoing the Bill to change the Congressional
election—in refaJIng to sign the Bill reducing
th« rate of State tax, and in unconstitutional
ly forcing an adjournment on a protesting
legislature. He completely exposed the deni
agogueism of the ter diem humbug, showing
the design of the family to draw off attention
from their own false steps.
Among the whole course of his speech
thunders of applause greeted our eloquent and
gallant Hindman. The canvass going on by
Col. Hindman in his district seems to be look
ed upon by the opposition headed by the True
Democrat, wi>h intense interest. It Is well
known that Col. Hindman’s district only a
very few years ago, was redeemed from the
thraldom of the party opposing the principles
of the democratic party, by Hindman him
self, while Senator Sebastian and Johnson’s
voice was nowhere to be heard advocating the
democratic party in the State of Arkansas, or
elsewhere j and it is also known that ever since
that occurrence of dlsenthralment, no effort
has been spared by the minority party to give
the revolution a momentum backward, and the
minority party it appears, is to be assisted by
the so-called True Democrat. The hard fist
ed yeomanry of this district have too much
confidence in Gol. Hindman’s democracy than
to be led astray by the plausible and special
theory of the disorganizing i&eet—the so-call
ed True Democrat.
The True Democrat, the reckless opposition
press, has done much to mislead and de
ceive people of other portions of the State,
but nothing can they effect in the way of in
spiriting or intimidating democrats in this
State. We have never felt the least alarm,
and have everfeltthe most implicit confidence
in the wisdom and disposition of the people in
this district to endorse Jeffersonian, not Dick
Jo'hnson democracy, by re-nominating Ool.
Hindman at our next convention to Congress,
by an overwhelming majority.
That, however much they may attempt to
conceal their feelings in regard to Col. Hind
man’s canvass, they fear the worst for the
family, not that they are so much devoted to
the democratic party, is evident enough to a
democrat with one eye, in this district.
Although a majority of the papers in the
State, and a host of letter scribblers have for
months been writing articles calculated to
inspire the so-called True Democrat with
hope and confidence, we can tell brother
RichaUd that there is no sort of reason of
doubting Hindman’s success in this district,
for ho will triumph without doubt, notwith
j standing the desperation of the True Demo
crat, whose edict is filling the Democratic
party with treason—the family headed by
Dick are fighting with the energy of despair.
It amounts to nothing. In HiNpMan, we have
a champion, able and bold, he is a Jeffersoni
an democrat, and nothing in the way of active
service on his part will be spared to aid the
honored principles of the democratic party of
which he is an able defender. Arkansas can
boast of no man that has more of the elements
of boldness, candor, honesty as a public and
private man, than Col. Hindman. He takes
no half way ground on any subject, and never
CUUSUilS VUU AI Ul A/CUlUViav mien VU «v,L, uuv
when convinced that a measure is right, with
out stopping to enquire whether its advocacy
would likely result favorably or otherwise up
on his political prospects, takes hold of it
boldly and reasiffis clearly and forcibly.
Those time-serving politicians, who are
afraid to say that their lives are their own,
without weighing the propriety of the asser
tion in the stales of srelf-interest by consult
ing Dick Johnson, are only worthy of the
contempt of every good democrat, l'hey, if
occupying high political positions, are a dis
grace to that position in which they are
placed, Arkansas has no need of such men—
their presence within her limits can only serve
to bring contempt upon the cause she has so
much at heart. Our State need such men as
Hindman ; we need bold andstrong men—men
who have the ability to advocate, the firmness
to carry out those moasurcs calculated to ad
vance the interest of the State, and not those
supple, cowardly politicians, whose lack of
moral courage is only equalled by their selfish
disposition.
Political men may be divided into two class
es. To the first belong the great souls, who
love political justice by serving their constit
uency honestly, and who love politics as the
means by which that justice can be done. Of
such politicians Arkansas has but few, and she
cannot boast of her fair proportion. The
second kind of politicians are simply unscru
pulous. They hang upon the outskirts of
their party, and prey upon its offals. It is
their trade to assist, to protect, and to deliver
political renegades, whether justice tri
umphs witli them or not. Amongst the great
est politicians of the South, Co!. Hindman de
serves a title. Whether the True Democrat,
with its milk and cider editors, deserves a ti
tle in the second class of politicians, it is for
the democrats of Arkansas to say. No demo
crat in the State of Arkansas, who feels an in
terest hi his party and has the spirit of an
American citizen, can read the articles in the
True Democrat, relative to Col. Hindman,
where so much injustice is done him by mis
representation, without feeling that it is an
indignity offered him and the democratic par
ty, a high handed attempt at dictation un
heard of, save by brother Richard, and all
good democrats should be bound by every
principle of personal and political indepen
dence to treat with contempt and indignity,
and to use every mean^jipon their part to re
sist. RED RIVER.

The Fending Difficulty with England.
The Victoria and Oregon papers re
ceived by the Overland Mail contain elab
orate accortits of adispute which has aris
en between the authorities of British Co
lumbia and Gen. Harney, as to whether
the Islands of San Juan and Bellevue be
long to the American or the British Gov
ernment. The islands appear to be im
portant positions in a military point of
view, and are off the Harro Archipelago.
Gen. Hnrney, with his characteristic en
ergy, instead of waiting for the result of
negotiations, and in obedience to orders
from Washington, proceeded by landing
his troops and prepared for contingencies.
Hearing of this the authorities of British
Columbia dispatched Her Majesty’s Ship
Plumber and held the Tribune and Satel
lite in readiness. Gov. Douglass issued
a protest against the American occupa
tion of the islands, claiming, in behalf of
the British, the sovereignty of the whole
of the Harro Archipelago. Gen. Harney
claims the islands of San Juan and Bel
le vue'as^^arr^fThtrranntyTjfWhattajmbi
Washington Territory. In consequence
of all these proceedings the people of both
sides of the disputed boundary line are in
dulging in very belligerent talk, and the
possibility of a war between England and
the United States is freely discussed.
It seems, however, that negotiations
have been entered upon subsequently to
the proceedings spoken of, between Gen.
Harney and Gov. Douglass, and a joint
occupation of the disputed territory semi
officially agreed upon, to continue until
the question of the rightful ownership shall
have been finally determined by the home
governments.
The origin of the difficulty seems to
have been that a petition was some time
ago sent on to Washington, stating that a
number of American residents on the is
lands had been murdered by Indians, and
a demand was made that future protection
should be accorded by the American naval
forces. Thus Gen. Harney was instruct
ed to take action in the matter, and he has
complied in a spirit that is truly character
istic of the man.—[Memphis Avalanche.
The Overland Mail Routes.—We
deem it proper to state, as there is such a
strong preijudioe existing against the con
tinaanceof the overland routes, costing a
million of dollars annually, with scarcely
any return, that it is tire ‘desire ef the
Postmaster General to have them abolish
ed, and that he would long since have ap
plied the principle of retrenchment in this
particular, had he not been prevented by
a decision of the Attorney General. This
decision was, that as the contracts for that
specific object was for four years, and did
not contain the usual clause empowering
the Postmaster General to cliahge the ser
vice, the routes in question could not be
interfered with. Should Congress abolish
them, a claim for damages would arise.—
