Developments in N York now demonstrate
too plainly for doubt, that the unholy coali.
ton between the National and Free-soil demo-
Gratis of New York, effected by the platform
which was adopted last year in Baltimore, and
the nomination Of Franklin Pierce was not
permanent fusion of parties, & that theVan Blu
rem men entertained no thought of abandoning
their principles and purposes They knew
their man" and were willing to support him
the result has shown that they were not mlsta
ken in him. They Interpreted the language oil
the platform to suit themselves and professel
satisfaction with 1.-THE result convinces US of
the mental reservation and want Of good faith
with which they made the profession. The
two factions are as wide asupder in senli-
ment as they ever were, and the free soiers
are as unrelenting and deadly in their hostility
to the South as overland yet the present dem
ocratc administration at Washington chooses
10 bestow its smiles and favors on them, To
the exclusion and contempt OF the orig
nal compromise nen-the only true union
and national democrats TO be found in the
North. The Albany Argus (Hnnker) COM
menting on the uncured and incurable repul-
sion of sentiment existing between the two fac
tons says:
1.-THE facts, connected or otherwise. ARE emf
nenty suggestive. They speak for themselves
of the aenage, now as heretofore, Of the Free
soil faction In this State from all affinity with
the common brotherhood of the National De
mocracy, and form an instructive lesson for
the study of political doctors and teachers,
here and elsewhere"
The New York Herald, itself belonging to
the Old Hunkers. rdicules the idea of any at
flation between the two factions. Tie most
striking example, it says, of harmony among
the recognized democracy" is the exalted and
magnanimous brolhery affection at present ak
listing between the Albany 1rguS, the organ CT
the "Old Guard" and the Albany Alias, the
oracle Of The Buffalo platform, free soil, soft
shell faction. The drgus. in relation 10 the
late proceedings of the Democratic State Com
mltee Of this State employs this amiable and
iraterna language in behalf oil the free solers,
of whom and whose cause tho Alias Is the de
fender
1t will be seen that because the State Com
mttce preferred 10 promnlgate as It's own the
doctrines and principles of the no tIonal de-
mocracy, as proclaimed at Baltimore and re-
iterated in the inaugural, and to do this In tho
Identical language of the inaugural, as embod
led IN the series OF resolutions in,roduc ed by
Mr.. ID. B. Taylor in the Assembly, end a,lopt
ed by that body, the free soil members of the,
House, when brought to tie test OF vote on
them, shrank from the ordeal and left the room
IN which the committee were assembled. The
scene was a repetition, though on a smaller
scale, Of the " stampede Of the Buhaloes " in
the Assembly. led off by the Speaker, short
time before, and adds, If possible, signifcanc e
and Importance to that memorable "show o.
heels, " instead of hands on the cardinal points
Of faith and practice with which the democ-
racy of the Union and the democratic admin
iStration stand identified before the country.
This, continues the Herald, is beautiful, aud
to the point. But the atlas is even more di
rect in its compliments to the incorrigibe hard
shells. Speaking Of little domestic difficulty
in the family, the organ of Martin Van Buren,
and the Buffalo platform says that the Argus
proposes to bolt next fall in case our excel
lect Comptroller Wrighl should be re nomi-
mated" but that its "bonds will find no back
( ers, " that its promises and pledges are not 10
a be relied upon, and that

f didate. There is no doubt of that. The re

S like TO vent its spite openly. But the Wing
