Another Bold Dash at Breckinridge and ‘the Fusionists. Senator Seward’s Reception at Kalamazoo. His Irreprenible Desire to Vist Hansas, and His Adviee to Voters, Rosy Bae My. Douglas im Pennsylvania. HIS RECEPTION AT READIN@—HIS SPEEBOH ON@IRECK- Bes ‘Mr. Douglas’ speech to-day was ® great effort; An- nexed is given the points of his speech with reference to Breckinridge, disunion and fusion. In noticing some re- marks made by Mr. Hiester, who introduced him to the meeting, Judge Douglas said:—1 wish to God we had a General Jackson at this day, in order that ho might grap- ple with Northern abolitiopism and Southera secession- ism, trample them under foot, and bury both in a com- mon grave. In referring to the Convention at Baltimore he said:—I received a majority of the whole number of the Convention on a large namber of sucocasive ballots, 1 confess, after having withdrawn my name from be- fore the Convention in the years when Pierce, in 1852, and Buchanan, in 1866, received the support of the majo- Tity, I expected that the candidates before the Charleston and Baltimore Conventions would feel bound im honor to right to expect that under precisely similar circumstances ‘ago, made a stump speech, in which he tried to jus- tify the breaking up of the democratic party on the ground that the Convention which nominated me insisted on a dogma in its platform. Foster was nominated in Reading for Governor of the State on identically the game principles that I was nominated at Baltimore. Fous- ter is thus pledged, by his nomination, to the identical principles to which I am irrevocably committed. How can @ man vote for the one without supporting the other, if be professes to be governed by principle? 1 trust every democrat in Pennsylvania will rally zealously, cordially and heartily, round the banner of Foster and npp intervention. (Cheers.) And when you shall have done tha', how can you refuse to sustain me on the same platform tp the National Convention? (Cries of ‘‘we can- 1 > tees tent Breakinridgm tells that the National Convention adopted a dogma con to reason and the constitution. If that be true, you of Reading, when you nomiuated Foster adopted a similar dogma, equally hostile to reason and the covstitution. 1 am free to say that the National Convention and the Pennsylvania State platform are doth in harmony with reason and the constitution. But Breckinridge bas declared, in bis late ‘stump speech, that I was not nominated according to the ‘usages of the democratic party. (Cries of “ You were.”’) I suppose Breckinfidge thinks so, or 1 suppose be would not have said so. But it only shows his ignorance of de- mocratic usages when be makes that declaration. I re ceived a two thirds vote in the Convention after the bolt, Dut less than a two-thirds vote of the whole Convention; bence | was nomivated in the same way that Cass was, ac cording to the known uniform usages of the party. But I suppose Breckinridge will excuse himself for not ro- garding the nom|nation of Cass as regular on the ground that ‘as the time he did not belong to the democratic party, and hence he was not boand by its usages. You all know that in 1847 Breckinridge, at @ meeting in Lexington, where be made a speech, denounced the democratic party as 6& corrupt faction, and came out in favor of General Taylor for the Presidency. Now, I sup- pose, he will excuse himself for not being bound by the regularity of the Cass nomination on the ground that he did not belong to the democratic party; and further, on the ground that he went hunting on elec. tion day and would not vote. (Cheers and laughter.) But my friend Breckinridge, in hie Kentucky stump speech, while be acknowledges that he was in favor of Taylor in 1847, went bunting in 1848, and thus could not vote for Cass; yot he amperts that he made speeches for Cass, be cause Casa then represented his principles. Now all we bave to do is to Sind out what his principles were. We have only to learn what Mr. Cass was in favor of and wo bave Breckinridge’s principles. (A voice—'‘The Nichol on letter."") Yes, my friend, you hit itexactly. Cass had just written the Nicholson letter, in which he assert- ed that Congress bad no power to interfere with the slave” Ty question in the Territories, and Breckinridge tells us that he made speeches for Cass, although up to the publi. cation of that letter be had been for Taylor; byt then it was be found out that Cass presented his principles. Here we find Breckinridge again bolting. (Cheers and laughter.) My friends, I never yet bolted the regular ticket of my party—mever yet went out hunting on the day of « Presidential election in my lite—and hence if bolting against the regular organiza tion is a claim to democratic support, I am entitied to no credit epon that ground. But let me ask you, fellow democrats, what is to be the consequence of your sus- taining those schemes of secessionism and bolting? How would it work at your elections for Governor? When one man comes forward and gete two hundred votes in Con- vention for Governor, and there are one hundred scatter- ing votes against him, all the miuority man bas to do is to bolt against the man that got the two-thirds, and then propoge a compromise, by way of fusion. Then, again, when you hold a Congressional Convention to nominate candidates, and the regular democrat who never bolted in bia lite gets a two thirds vote, and one eqalvooal demo- ‘corat who goes bunting on election day gets bat a one third vote, all bis friends and himself have to do is to bolt,and thos run a one-third candidate and then demand ‘a compromise and fasion. Then, again, when you come to nominate candidates for the Legisiature, and one portion of the party outvotes the other by two-thirds, all you have to do is to got the minority to bolt, and refuse to support the regular ticket, unless you divide with them and form a fasion by way of compromise, (Cheers and laughter ) Task you, what will become of the democratic organiza- tion, of that moral power which attaches fidelity to principles, if you are going to sustain thie new idee of bolting and secession? Why, it seome that in order to be a true Breckinridge man you must bolt against the re- ular nominee every tine, or else you must go hunting ‘om election day—(cheers)—and thun defeat the democrat who never wavered, or faltered, or never cheated his party. (Loud cheers.) If you sanction or tolerate this new dodge you hold outa premium for every falthions man to bolt in futare. For one, Ioan never fuse, and never will fuse, with @ man who telle me the democratic creed a a dogma, contrary to reason and to the coustitation. Let us spurn the bolting idea, Let us steed firm by oar principles, let us maintain the integrity of the democra- tle party, and then trust our cause to God ad the people. (Cheers.) Ihave fought twenty seven pitched battles since I entered public life, and never yet traded with hominations or gurrendered to trenchery. (Cheors.) ‘and If | mlatae wot te tree ppirit tbo Gemiverney of Old Berks, they will stand by their onlors and scorn alJ alliance either with Northern abolitionists or Southern seceesionism. (Cnfers ) Judge Douglas speaks at Pottsville tonight, at Easton on Monday, and arrives in New York on Monday night, where he will be joined by Mra. Dougias and Mr. Johnson, the candidate for the Vice Presidensy. G. N. Sanders, of New York, is here, and divides the honors with the “Little Giant.’? Herechel V.
