by We .qtlas in connection with the reception
Of Judge Douglss by John Cochrane, and the
resolutions Of Tammany Hall on John McKeon,
give proniae of lively time among the soft

to parties and by them sold in the market as bona ee

The HARD SHELL CONVENTION AND THE Sorr
SHELL CENTRAL ORGAN.-The Albany .atlas,
the central organ of the Buffalo free soil soft
shell administration faction Of the late demo-
cratic party, is not satisfied with the doings of
the hard shells at Syracuse; and that our read
ers may have the full benefit Of the .qtias trum-
peter, We give his complaint at large in our
columns. 1t is brief, pointed, significant and
useful as an index to the probable action of the
soft shells at Syracuse in September.
The .7fias is clearly guilty, we apprehend,
Of several bold absurdities in it's summing up
of the hard she'll programme. It is FEARFUL that
the wings may join the hards in the election.
This is an absurd fear, after the emphatic en-
dorsement Of the Nebraska bill by the hard con-
vention II is suspicious Of collision between
Judge Bronson and the Know Nothings. But
how can that be, when the soft shell organ of
this city even more ferocious against the Irish
Catholics than the Angel Gabriel! Doubtless
the Know Nothings will figure largely in the
election; but We suspect that the wings will
look after them, dropping Seward in the mean
time, for more available candidate for Cover
nor. The free coil soft shells must be satisfied
with their chances, such as they are; and IL is
well that the .qtias has made up its mind to
defeat in the outset II will save IL from
disappointment in the final result
The policy recommended by the Albany
organ Of the administration faction brings
MS back to the fundamental doctrines OF the
rrfa!o platform. We are surprised. .r.er

The SARATOGA COMMUNICATIONS LIGHr.-
The Albany Journal throws food Of light
upon the subject of the State convention of
the holy antislavery alliance, which is to meet
at Saratoga on the 10th of August coming.
1t says that one object is united protest
against the Nebraska bill, and for the restora-
ton Of the Missouri compromise another OBJ
ject is to secure the reelection Of every member
Of Congress who, in good faith and straight
through, opposed the Nebraska bill. Further
more, Thurlow Weed says
But above ALL the convention has an i'm porsant prsc
scope Of strictly party political action. That is the
promotion Of free emigration to the Territories by
such means a. shall be found, discussion, to be
York meeting which appointed the committee that has
cooperated with an Albany one in issuing the call.
The delegates, We understand the call, to be
chosen with reference to their views this subject
alone. They are not to be chosen with reference to
their party antes with reference to their opinions
on temperance, prison management canal enlargement

Canal Commissioner. Manfesty, then, any action they
might take In regard to those subjects would be unsu
thoised II would receive and deserve much respect
and more than Is due to the action Of any other

Here is the whole thing The convention is
to be purely anti-slavery, and its deliberations
are to be limited to the Nebraska question, and
to the business Of filing up Kansas and Ne
