The Compromise Candldates.

We insert to-day the answers of the Demo-
cratic candidates, to the letter of ROBERT G.
Scorr, esq. We don't discover Mt all the pro-
priety or policy of Mr.. ScoTT's letter, which
evidently assumes the Compromise as an nd.
justment on which Southern man ought to
insist We think he falls into the trap of Mr..
SEWARD, who will be delighted to find that
Southern men are so infatuated as to insist on
the maintenance of measures that despoiled
and degraded them. If such position is taken
by the South, and refused, as it lie, by the North,
another Compromise and another retreat of the
South are inevitable. We don't discover either,
in any or all Of these letters single respecta-
BILE argument or allegation in favor of that plan.
And it strikes us as decidedly curious, if not
iudcrous, that dozen Of Democratic candidates
should adopt, on the eve Of nomination, a
scheme that originated with Mr.. CLAY, the great
Wing leader, and one by which he expected to
be elected by the Wings, and by the North.
But a. this Compromise is again intruded on

ourselves with reiterating that we will nerer ad.
