The Game of therwo Old Parties on tho
Compromise-Vvhat says the South.

The light increases--the fog is clearing away
to the verge of the political horizon its landmarks
are becoming visible. The plan Of the campaign oil
1852 already stands out in bold relief. 1t is too
palpably manifest to be misntcrprcted, that the
compromise measures viii be completely lodged
by both the Baltimore Conventions-that neither
the democrats nor the wings will have the moral
courage to touch then--that they will both go be-
fore the country with the door wide open to the
slavery agitation, and that the great issue will not
be the fnaliiy of the slavery Adjustment but con-
test between the wings and democrats for abolition
votes and the plumber Of the public treasury.
The wing primary elections in this city, yostcr-
day, practically amount to nothing. They only
show by very striking contrast the fceblcncss Of
Fillmore and Webster, and the overwhelming
strength Of Scott in the State at large. Throughout
the North and the West il is the same story Scott
and Seward arc the Alpha and Omega of the wing
party. At the Baltimore Convention, the forces Of
Scott will be sufficient to gag all attempts at resist
ance to his nomination without platform-to
silence all opposition, and to Dragon the Southern
delegates into submission and servile obedience;

PIERCE AND KING.

By reference to the Report Of the pro-
ceedings of the National Convention, IL
will be seen that General FRANKLIN
PIERCE. Of New Hampshire. has re-
ceived the nomination for President, and
that WILLIAM r. KING, of Alabama, has
been chosen for Vice President.
Gen. PIERCE has been Representative
and Governor Of his own State, and has
also represented her in the Senate Of the
u. States.-When the wal broke out with.
Mexico he repaired to the scene Of strife.
AT Cherubusco he commanded the New
England and South Carolina Brigade.
which done the country such signal service.
on that occasion. He was injured in the
action and was bore fainting from the field.
Gen. Scott speaks Of him in his report Of.
the action in terms Of high commentator,
and he received the appointment Of Brevet
Brigadier General as a token Of the esti-
nation in which his services wers held.
Mr.. PIERCE, although his own State had
unanimously instructed for him, did not
regard himselfa as a candidate, but the con-
veniion, after 40 ballotings, finding they
could not agree upon either Of the other
prominent gentlemen who were applicants
for the nomination, by way Of a COM
promise, and with great unanimity, chose
him as the best man in the nation to har.
monte the democratic party. We believe
they have succeeded ,and..we put his name
attthe head Of our columns in the firm con-
viction that he will BE- the next president.
Col. VIM. r. KING, the candidate for
Vice President, is well known to the nation.
He is a gentleman Of talent, who has oc-
( cupied a seat in the u. s Senate almos.

times the force Of Gen. Shields and Pierce,
and several thousand cavalry. These
regiments did not give way but were lite
rally cut to pieces, both officers and men.
More than one half the entire regiments
were either killed or wounded. Gen.
Pierce came rapidly to sustain them, and
after a severe struggle the fortunes of the
day were turned in that quarter, against
the enemy. AT this time late in the after
noon, Gen. Pierce tainted and fell from his
horse, from pain of his wound OF the pre-
vious day and exhaustion, having been
almost constantly in the saddle since the
morning of the 10Th. and since his hurt
with the greatest difficulty and suff-ring.

THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATIONS.

From the W~ashington Union Of the 9th.
we clip the following article, showing the
enthusiasm with which the nominations
were received in that city, crowded as the
capital was then with prominent Demo-
Gratis from every quarter of the Union:-
The NoM1NATIoNs.-Long before these
lines can reach our readers, the Democra-
CIV throughout the land will be reused and
united by the joyful intelligence that their
National Convention has named Franklin
Pierce, Of New Hampshire, for President,
and William R. King. of>Alabama, for
Vice President. OF the United States.
When we say that the nomination Of
Gen. Pierce will be hailed by the Demo-
cracy with one spontaneous reclamation
of enthusiasm throughout the length and
breadth of the land, we give but an made
quate Interpretation Of the immense and
resistless unanimity testified by the con
~vention in the extraordinary vote which
presented him to the people as the repre-.
sentative of Democratic principles. and
the chosen standard bearer Of the Demo.
cratic party. After a most arduous and
pro,racted session-after forty.eight bal
%ioiings. in which the friends Of the di'tin-
puished leaders of the Democratic party
in all sections Of the Union had given no
BILE proof of their fidelity to the men whom
circumstances had first commended to
their respective preference over others
whose eminent claims to the confidence
OF the country were yet never tor a mo
ment ouestioned-the assembled Demo
cracy. as if with one consent, turned 1T
eve to General Pierce as the only mar
who could at this time unite in his supper
every Democratic element and interest o
the whole Union. In such a result, a
this time the country will recognize. will
; full confidence Of hope, a parallel to tina
! memorable procedure in the Democratl'
I Convention of 1914, which, by the nomi
nation of the lamented Polk. gave to tn
Democracy a most victorious canvass
+. and to the people assuredly one of tn
most powerful. energetic and splendid ad
ministrations which have yet adorned gu
c annals. The striking coincidence in tn
{. two cases is a most suspicious omen.
o There can be no doubt that in the nom
$ ~ination of General Pierce the conventio
have given 10 the democracy whom the
represent an absolute assurance OF a gle
h rious victory in the coming campaign
The democratic party Of the North an
h the South, Of the East and the West, wi
d support him as one a 1t is difficult
say which section Of the party will mo
readily and cordially rally to elect him.
A nomination having in it more Of the 9
v ements Of irresistible success can hard
n be imagined. The son Of a patriot Of n
revolution who bore arms at Bunker Hl'
,.lGen. Pierce is pre-eminently a man
the people. Though experienced in civ
life. and eminently qualified for its highe
! duties, so far from seeking office, he n
repeatedly declined it when rendered
! him. and resigned i. when in his posse
sion.

Resolved, That we are decidedly oppo-
sed to taking from the President the quail
fed veto power, by which he is enabled.
under restrictions and responsibilities,
amply sufficient to guard the public ~interst,
to suspend the passage of a bill whose
merits cannot secure the approval Of two
thirds of the Senate and House of Repre-.
sentatives until the judgment Of the people
can be obtained thereon. and which has
saved the American people from the cor
rupt and t~yranical domination ofthe Bank
of the United States, and from a corrup-
ting system of general internal improve
ments.
Resolred, That the Democratic party
will faithfully abide by and uphold the prin-
ciples laid down in the Kentucky and Vir-
ginia resolutions of i798. and in the report
of Mr.. NJ adison to the Virginia Legislature
in 1899; that it adopts those principals as
constituting one of the main foundations
of its political creed. and is resolved to
carry them out in their obvious meaning
and import.
Resolved, That the War with Mexico.
upon all the principles of patriotism and
the laws Of nations. was a lust and neces-
sary wal on our part. in which every
American citizen should have shown him.
self on the side ofhis country, and neither
morally or physically, by word or deed,
have given aid and comfort to the enemy.
RESOLVED, That we rejoice at the resto'
ration Of friendly relations with our sister
Republic of Mexico, and earnestly desire
for her all the blessings and prosperity
which we enjoy under Republican institu'
tons, and we congratulate the American
people upon the results Of that wal which
: have so manifestly justified the policy ant
conduct of the Democratic party. and in
sured to the United States " indemnity TO

ResolvDd, That in view of the condition
. of popular institutions in the old world,
| high and sacred duty is devolved with in
creased responsibility upon the Democratic
t party OF this country as the party Of TIT
people, to uphold and MAINTAIN the right
