coused by this trn In the conversation that he forgot
the prohered advice altogether.
Whether true not, the tale is Characteristic
The Little Giant is alert for the eldy old To-
" and IL he cannot win the prize himself he will
very effectively provide against old Bucks getting
IT, This last is, perhaps, all that he sspires to for
the present lie is a shrewd little fellow, and looking
TO the past he reasonably doubts Democratic
in the present canvass For twenty years the party
in power has been beaten, and there is nothing to
induce the belief that the existing Administration
will prove exception to the rule. Douglas knows
this, and he would rather take his chances in 1860
than in 1856 But, in the meantime, he does not
wish that Buchanan, any other Northern man,
should be the candidate now, for that would prove
n serious obstacle to his obtaining the nomination
four years hence.
Ii this be his game and If he has already combined
the vote of the Northwest against Pennsy lvana's
iavorte, he does well To make fun Of "Old Buck" in
advance.
We know not what credit the statement deserves
which Douglas paper in Ohio has put forth, that
the of the Northrest in the Cincinnati Conven-
ton will be cast a unit If this be true, and if
that vote be subject to Douglas dictaon, he will
least be able control the action of the Convention
the extent defeating all his Northern competitors
But said yesterday, nothing is certain with
gard to the action Of this assembly Of political jug
glers and adventures. The delegates may have
selected in various States with reference de
finite object; but most Of them up for "Cow.S
and market" and have their own little fortunes To
push. When they get upon the ground, if they find
they can drive better bargain with this man than
that, their will be shaped accordingly. And
this consideration will not be without its weight in
favor of some Great Unknown. The prominent
pirants each having many active friends there
good offices to dispose Of the outsiders and hoa-
tiers will be disposed to go for some new man, to
whose good graces they may have equal pretensions.
