The Dcmocra,ic Convensiens.

We publish this week the addresses Of the
two Democratic Conventions recently held in
Sacramento The reasons for the course pur-
sued by the two wings of the party, in nomi-
mating two tickets for the support of the Demo-
cracy Of the State are, it is presumed. fully set
forth therein. The failure of the State Con-
vention to adjust the difficulty between the two
wings, and by some compromise close mp the di-
vision therein existing g, has placed the Democrat
c party in a most unfortunate position, and
added an hundred fold to the chances of Wing
success. The nominees are all Democrats good
and true, and the Conventions that nominated
them each numbered some of the most reliable
Democrats in the State. 1t is not to be dis
sused, however, that Messrs. Latham and Nc
Dougal were placed in nomination under cir
cumstances that they would never approve
Mr. McDougal has invariably in all CT his letters,
absolutely declined a denomination, while La
than has been equally positive in his refusal to
run again, unless his denomination would }lar-
monize the party. To suppose, therefore, that
they will approve Of tie position in which they
have been placed by ONE wing of the party, is
perfectly preposterous. Their most intimate
friends declare that SO soon as they arrive in
the State, which iley viii DO several days be-
fore the election, they viii withdraw their
names from the canvass. indeed Judges Hy-
denfeldt and M!prry, both Of tie Supreme Court,
and respectively the most intimate and conf
dental friends Of alcDougal and Latham, have
formally Withdrawn the names of those gentle
men from tie canyass They base their right to
do so upon positive information in their posses
sion, over the signatures of those gentlemen.-
The men who placed Messrs. Latham and Nc
DouSal in nomination. however, do not ac-
knowledge the right of the Hon. Judges thus
sumlnariy to dispose of their candidatcs.-
Hence both tickets viii remain in the canvass,
to the infinite qualification of the Wings, who
are at present as jolly set of Aon,5res as have
been seen for many day.
