ciple upon which California was ad-
mitted-the principle Of popular sovereignty.
1T is poor rule which will not work both
ways" 1t is the old fable Of my OK and your
bull, and will not hold water. And yet W. H.
Seward, his Northern aids, his allies, and his
organs are moving heav and earth to resist
the "hatetul despotism" of the slavehelding
Oligarchy," and to roll back the aggressions of
the South upon the constitutional rights Of the
North Bah!
The whole of this Seward programme re-
solves itself into an unscrupuloas conspiracy
for the public plumber. It is . programme Of
sediti0n and disunion-a sectional alliance for
the spOils, upon the false pretences of Northern
rights and Southern aggressions Nothing
more. But they are in for the spcils at all
hazards, union or disunion. And SO with the
ultra secessionists Of the South. Between these
violent extremes there has sprung up "fresh
rom the people" the new American party.
Sold out in New England to the Seward ALI
ance it is yet true to the principles of the con-
stitution in New York. and some of the central
States, and in the South. We expect that the
forthcoming elections in Kentucky, Tennessee,
North Carolina and Georgia, will prove that
the party of this Philadelphia American plat
form hold the vantage ground for the Union
and the constitution, and Northern and South
ern rights in 1856. Let us wait and see

ing to such designation, there is little difficulty
in making the Tunes and Express their faithful
representatives. The Times may be regarded
as an old fashioned political press acting I'M
der false preteDces- successful only as an im-
position. The circulation of the Times has
been reduced to $4,000 copies or less per day.
The Express has very uneven run, sometimes
more or less, but generally not over that OF the
Journal Of Commerce.
The other daily journals of New York have
no original character or power over the public
mind. They are merely auxiliary to the
others named, and their various calculations are
as variable as their weather, and might well be
included in the next meteorological bulletin OF
the renowned T. Merriam.
