A Gentle Hint.

The Augusta Constituencies, one of the
chief organs of the Southern Rights Democrats
in Georgia, thus refers to prominent ex-editor
and ex-candidate of the national Democracy:
"TRIBUTE TO HARMoEy.-It will be perceived
among the telegraphic items, that Mr.. Donelson
has sold out his interest in the Union newspaper
10 his partner, Mr.. Armstrong. The reason as
signed is, that it was necessary for the harmony
of the Democrrtic party. So far, so good. II a
certain Democratic aspirant, quite prominent for
the nomination for President, would pay like
tribute to harmony and decline the candidacy,
the work of harmonizing the Democracy would
go bravely on. He has a good prospect of a
bare majority in the conventions very slim
prospect for two-thirds nomination-and no
prospect at all, as we conceive, for an election.
Can he not be induced to stand up to his pledge
in his letter of acceptance in l84S, that nothing
could induce him 10 be second time candidate
far The Presidency! Mr.. Polk stuck to his
pledge in despite of the wishes of many of his
warm friends and admirers, who would gladly
have supported him for re election. 1t is a pre-.
cedent worthy of all honor and imitation

DEFERRED PROCEEDINGS.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES,.

MONDAY, may, ~, looI.
Mr. CULLOM having obtained the floor, ad.
dressed the committee an hour, in regard to the
compromise measures, the position of the par
ties on that question, and the Presidency.
Mr. CLINGMAN do not intend to detain
the committee now by speech, in reply to my
friend from Tennessee, Mr.. CULLoM for two
reasons. In the first place, |, rs member Of
the Committee on Territories, am extremely
averse to having the time devoted to territorial
business taken up by this political debate, and
intend to ask that the committee rise, in order
that the House may pass resolution terminal
ing debate. But, secondly, as arm on the floor
for this purpose, assure the gentleman from
Tennessee Mr.. CULLon that the reason why |
do not reply to him now is not that have any
lack of respect for him individually, or for his
effort The gentleman has obviously passed
over all the seccders except myself. He proba-
bly, thought that no would not be match for
any Of these individuals, and selected me the
weakest and humblest Of the number. While
readily admit tina. the gentleman has shown
great Judgment and prudence in choosing his
antagonists, | nevertl eless say to him, if the
occasion was such IA, in my Judgment, to require
it, that even |, humble as admit myself to be
in comparison with the gentlemen who were
associated with me, would not fear to meet him
on these issues, and with little fear Of the result
But everybody secs that the object Of the gen.
tleman is TO avoid all collision with the others.
1Ae{ might possibly, in his opinion, prove too
able Tor HIM, or else his Objects to place
eminen,ly conspicuous in this matter,
not with the view OF benefting me, but of il
Juring them NOW, say to the gentleman, thu
in assigning me the place of leader; he pays me
the greatest compliment in his power, for there

TrsuhIcs In the Wing Camp.

We give to-day as much of the Wing SQUAD
Bile in the House as has yet been reported
Two of the most striking pronunciamcntos-
those of Mr.. CULLoM, of Tennessee, and Mr.
MARSHALL, of Kentucky, have been withheld
for revision, and have not yet appeared. -
Enough, however, is given to show the ncom
patibility Of the elements now constituting the
Wing party at the South. Without sacrifice
of principle, or surrender on the one side or the
other, il is impossible that harmony can be pro.
duced out of those dscords.
The agency of SEWARD, in controlling the
action of the Wing caucus, is made very obvious
as much by what is limited as by what is openly
disclosed. With reference TO his presence a,
the Capitol in committee room on that night
we'll may the Southern Wings ask in the words
Of BYRON
