suited their attorney by engaging other COUNSEL to

their nomination, have Of the same time indicated
the ability Of their candidate and administered Q
just rebuke to the bungling administration with

The work for the next Presidentisl election
has seriously commenced. The political events
of the last six weeks have sharply defined the
three great parties of the campaign, and the
champion of each for the succession. These
three parties are-the American party, the
Seward anti-slavery coalition party, and the
democratic party and the candidate Of each.
IS broadly foIeshadowed by these late events,
is-
Of the American psrty--George Law, of
New York.
OF the Seward coalition party--W. II. Sew
ard, of New York.
OF the democratic party-Henry A Wise, of
Virginia.
Beginning with Mr.. Wise, we find him brought
forward as the forlorn hope Of the democracy
in the late Virginia election. 1t was the last
chance. Everywhere else the party, with their
old iogy or administration leaders had been
borne down and utterly routed and dispersed
In New York, they had split aud foundered up
on Marcy; in Pennsy lvanis, they had been pros
tratsd in spite of the ancient prestige of Bu.
chansn; in Michigan, Gen. Cass had been
stumbling block; in Illinois, Douglas had
brought about democratic defeat; in Indiana,
Bright and Petit had been repudiated in
Missouri, Atchison bad failed in Caliror
MIA, Gwin had fallen through; in Mas
sachusetts Gushing had been scornfully
overlooked; in New Hampshire, Mr.. Pierce
himself had been publicly condemned and re
morselessly trodden under foot aud even in
Old Virginia the integrity of the democracy
had been shaken upon the White House preten-
sions Of Mr. Senator Hunter.
AT such crisis, and in the face Of such dis
asters and drawbacks Mr.. Wise was nominated
as the Virginia democratic candidate for Gov.
ernor. and the life or death of the party was thus
placed in his hands He accepted the trust-he
fought the battle as never apolitical battle was
fought before. Had the faAp of this Union de-
pended upon the result-had the question been
it's preservation or immediate dissolution-he
could not have exercised more energy, activity,
zeal, courage, talent and perseverance than he
