Free Soil Nomination.

ORGANic VERACITY. "f7dd the wings cast JuH
rote, Charles Hudson pould hare been elected" So
says the "Federal Baby" Of yesterday. To elect him.
they must have given him more than screen thousand
votes whereas, they have given him somewhere
three thousand! They have then given him considera>
bly, less than one half of the vote they might have Civ.
en-; il the 'babys" statement is tue. What then does
this prove Either that the cause was bad or that the
party had confidence in their candidate or that they
not duly impressed with the Importance OF the
election. What else could il be Do they admit that
their cause was bad If so, then we commend them
for not sustaining it, but should commend them more,
they would abandon it and sustain the right. Do they
admit that they have not confidence in their candidate
If then agree that it is sufficient cause for not
sustaining him But, neither of the Taylor organs we
presume, will admit the existence of either of these
causes. II so, then conceive of no reason why
they should give but little than third Of their vote
unless be, ha, they suitably impressed with
the importance Of the election But here we encounter
another difficulty. The party have three organs in the
District, while there only political paper that adj
vocates the Free Soil cause and that one il we are to
believe the united testimony of the Taylor organs, as
well that Of many of the Taylor men, without char
acter without efficiency, and without influence Two
November election in exatiug Charles Hudson and de-
crying Judge Allen, and, that stone should be left
unturned, the third brought from its professedy
neutral position, 10 engage with all its mighty poWer and
Influence, in the work of bringing the Dsrc, into
support OF "Free SoI' Taylorism, and jubilee was
held the occasion of its the ranks of the
party.
Well, these three organs have all warned the people
with all the ervor and earnesness thai the occasion
could inspire, thai the welfare, not of the party aone
but If the district and OF the nation, required the re
lection of Charles Hudson. They have set forth his
character aud qualifications in the glowing colours
AID declared that his defea, you'd be disgrace the
district and the State and that failure give him all
possible support would be greatly dishonorabie the
party especially. At the time they have repre-
sented Judge Allen unprinciped office seeker not
worthy 10 be trusted and whhaI of comparatively
little ability, and one who would be without
influence at Washington, if elected. Columns upon
columns have been devoted to the impressng of these
views upon the minds Of their readers. What
stronger motives for action could be presented
to the minds of Intelligent and honest men =
Yet after ALL The of the district almost three
TO one, against Charles Hudson and if this new con.
vertto Taylorism is be believed, considerably more
than half the party after all these appeals have refused
give him their votes! We cannot unridde this mat
ter. we do not understand it. Will the new organ, OIL
either OF the old ones, If they choose, enghen u.s.
the public this point, and explain how is that the
Free Soil party, much in the minority they repre-
sent it, with feeble advocate with so bad cause
and poor candidate, should nevertheless elect thai
candidate by great majority while this great Taylor
party, with such motives to impel to action, and with
such trio Of able dpocates, should fail give their
'nobe Hudson even third of the votes of the dis.
