THE WARRINGTON UNION ON COALITIONS
The Washington Union Of the 3Oth ult. has
long editorial, in reply to an article in the
National Inteligtncsr, on Political Fusion in
Massachusetts, Tho last-named journal had
remarked that the recent victory of the Con-
servaiiyes in that State was the more crafty
ing because it had been achieved over !" the
combined forces Of The Democracy and Free Soil
ers "a combination which has maintained the
control Of the State Government for the last
three years and Of which il adds" We doubt
auhsther there sver existed for political purposes
a more ereeptiona,is union Of parties"
The Union asserts that every man who pre-
tends g to accurate political information will
zee that the first statement in italics is a
falsehood" Every man of accurate political
information knows it to be true Charles
Sumner holds his scat in the Senate Of the
United States in virtue Of that Coalition, which
also placed Caleb Cushing the Attorney
General Of President Pierce--on the Bench in
Massachusetts,, and, for the three years prece-
ding the late defeat divided the State Offices
between the Democracy and the Free-Scilers
or Independent Democracy. It was that Goa
lition which carried the bill for the Constitn-
tiooal Convention, which agreed upon the
amendments to the Constitution, and which
was overthrown in the late contest by another
Combination-the combination Of Conserve
tism, Rum-ism, Catholicism, and Cushng-ism
Any one Of these elements, alone, would have
been powerless; combined, they were prevail
ing. The impsrtinent sdict Of Caleb Cushing,
sanctioned by the Administration, without
breaking up the Coalition, drove of enough Of
the Hnnker Democrats TO give tho victory to
the enemies Of reformed, populsrised Constitu-
tion, already jeoparded.
The second statement in italics, the Union
chsracterizes az An Involuntary error Of opin-
inn.n L holds that tho recent Coalition 10 the
Senate, between MIR. Sumner and Mr. Everett
to prevent the election Of the proprietor Of the
Union as Public Printer to that body, was
sill more excsptionable combination than that
in Massachusetts. And il then proceeds to
make large quotations from Mr.. Summers
speeches. in relation TO the Compromise and
Fugitive Law, TO show what wicked man he
lie, and how corrupt Mr.. Everett must be to
coalesoe with him. This part Of the Unions
article il, in fact the main part, and the mani
Test purpose Of it IL, not 80 much to meet any
statement Of the Intsiligsneer, as to damage
MIR. Sumner
Private interest is wonderful stimulant to
patriotism This is now the third winter Of
MIR. sumner in the Senate, and his voice has
often been heard in emphatic condemnation Of
the Fugitive Law and Of Slavery. The vol
umss containing his speeches, from which the
Union quotes have long been before the
public, and received high praise for their lite
rary merits. But the Union, until the late
election for Pablo Printer, in which Mr.. Sum
ner Of Massachusetts, and Mr.. Mason Of Viz.
ginia united in voting for Beverly Tucker, never
srraigned him for his sins Nothing in the
columns Of that paper could have led the Pob
lilo to believe that the Massachusetts, Senator
had ever given u.terance TO any damnable
hsrssies MIR. Sumner, however having exer-
oised his right as an Independent Senator, in
voting against the proprietor Of the Union, oil
1t onoe the Union discovers that he holds very
strocious and infamous sentiments!
But 70 the Coalition, 90 much more excep-
tior able than that in Massachusetts coali-
ton between the ultra Free-Soiler, Charles
Sumner, and the Conservative Wing, Edward
Everett! Why coalition! Because tho two
Senators, without comforting with each other
or proposing any common advantages, happened
70 prefer Mr.. Tucker to Mr.. Armstrong Cor
Public Printer! Is the Union stone blind
Mr.. BaIaHr, . leading member Of the Demo
cratic Party, was the leader, If we understand
Il in urging the claims Of Mr.. Tucker If Mr.
sumner voted for that gentleman, in company
with Mr.. EvERrrr, he~found himself also in
company with Messrs MASON and HUNrER, Of
Virginia and with seven other stAnch Demo
crAtic Senator'S. What an awful coalition
