correspondence of the Baltimore Sun.

The late events in New York have tested he sin.
ccriiy of the Executive Government III their attempts
IN fulfill on their part, the obligations of the Clayton
Rulwer treaty. They have, upon this subject, pur.
sued consistent and proper course The delay uf
the Presidents Message has kept from the public the
present views and policy Of the Government in re-
ference to late proceedings i'll Nicaragua and the pre-
sent state of the negotiations i'll regard 10 the Central
American question. But ii cannot fail to bc percev-
cl that there il All intimate connection between our
supposed demands upon the British Government for
redress OH account Uf the violation Of our neutrality
laws, and the maintenance Of our own treaty obliga
tions, md regard on our own part for our own
laws for a violation OF which We claim satisfaction
from other governments
1t is the duty of the government also to protect the
national character from the prejudice which it suffers
in the eyes OF all clrisemdo from the private cxpe-
dtions uf frccbuuters known TO lie got up ports
and by own people, against the weaker STATES ON
this continent.
We are appraised ni n renewed attempt, in the face
of the law, and in resistance tn the Executive au-
thority, TO dispatch troops 10 Nicaragua, and it is
hoped that the government will persist III their course,
aud not be- tulrd in New York, rs in California
Tho private interests OF the Nicaragua Transit
Company set up in opposition 10 the public nte-
rests und the laws u the country and the officers OF
that company the right OF constituting luws and
treaties 81 to crafty their own cupidity. They
fursouth, recognize General Walkers government AM
his minister though the federal government rrpuliatr
both. 1t remains Ia be whether they can carry
their point in opposition to the government.

SENATOR DOUGLAS.

In regard to the Presidential nomination we have
before MS an article in the Chicago Times, winch
speaking by authority. says senator Douglas Is
not nuw nor has he ever been, a candidate ior Tie
Presidential nomination. No man is now or ever
has been authorized by him 10 use his name IN or OUT
It that convention nor will that authority be given
Bat in regard to the views of the Democracy OF IL
linos in which their brethren VI other csterh States
participate. the Times says:
Illinois has no second choice: 1t is Douglas before
MI other men; yet the representatives OF ill!ho's WIN
20 to that convention with other Instructions tah
10 vote for that who deserves to be the nominee
of the only party in the United States which dare us
s,rt and maintain that the Constitution Is the only
bond of the Union, and that the Union, without the
Constitution practically observed, is but solemn
,nnckerv of freedom. Justice Gad equity The Demo
cracy of Illinois will support any map wh" Is me no
nnGe of that Convention and ;hey forbear present
i'm, the name Of their own fa'o rc, because lneS
wish 10 go into that Convention az faithful, unpTtlu-
diced unpircs in the choice OF candidates.
We assert what We know 10 he the TACT, that Seia-
tor Douglas will not permit the use oil MS name 10
iiyide the National Convention. Let those VINO are
Candidates be ba!otred for; if any of them IL noina-
ted, MI we'll and when should il unfortunately occur
that no candidate can command the requisite strength
then the Democracy can fall back upon the man who
never yet failed them in the hour of per-whose
hand whose name whose voice and whose abilities
ARE now as they have ever been-always AT the SER
vice OF the Democratic party.
