Dr.. McCortoey comes among Us With the

NATIONAL lNTELLIGESCER. The
Gazette OF Tuesday morning, III speaking
OF the neutral position Of the National In
teiigencer, said that while it maintained an
independent position. was inclined to Re-
public suism, and would sustain Fremont ex-
cept for tear OF the influence Of its South
ern readers.
We sab,oin below = portion VI IT.. same
article from which the Gazette took its ex
tracts, to let our readers see how much this
old Wing paper has "sectioaai leaning !"
towards Fremontism. Try aEa,n, 0e'gh

OF the +" Republican" party itmnst BE- still
less necessary for us to speak This, too,
is composed partly Of Wings and partly Of
Democrats, who have alike departed from
the creeds OF their respective parties to
unite in consolidating All anti. slavery or
ganizstion. The existence Of such party
wholly sectional in its constituents, is, III
our opinion. greatly to be deplored, as are
the causes which led to its formation !,
which, though they explain to US its origin
alton, do not tend to produce in our mind
the conviction that q party which has
sprung up under the influence OF even the
natural resentment produced by them, is
one which will be likely to heal the wounds
inflicted on the Republic. Moreover, the
candidate Of this party, distinguished as ne
Is in the walks Of science and Of intrepid
adventure, is, in addition to his too section
al leAnings, q democrat in general politics,
and without that experience in public at
fairs which affords guaranty Of his al
minis rative talents, favorsbly a. they might
be augured Of from the energy which he
has displayed on other fields Of difficulty
ard danger.

purpose Of consulting the views and feel,

acted promptly upon the suggestion. and

wa car Judge, the change viii give entire
satisfaction MANY indeed are pleased with
IT, they desire to meet the Democ.

umphantly defended they wish to meet,
face to face, the entire number Of that noble
host who composed the van 20 the army
opposed to Know \othingIsm, and to whose
talents, enthusiasm, and zeal. we were in.
debted as much as to any other portion Of
thu State, Tor the triumph Of correct prin,
clples
SO far as this county is concerned, 1t is,
so far AS We can Judge, almost entirely free
from political agitation. We believe that
large majority OF onr citizens are prepared
to cast their suhrages for the candidate who
may he possessed OF the highest qualifca
lions, without regard to his political creed
Il every county in the District would pur.
sue this course, a convention would be uns
necessary. We could rest satisfied that a
.nau of merit aud OF ability would be cho>
sen. But we have every JASON to believe
that the Know Nothings, and particularly
the H. Ms Of Rusk have long since deter
mined that no such course shall be pursued
they have resolved that it shall be a politi.
cal issue. Tho course pursued in the las,
Legislature, IA the attempt to Gerrymander
this district, and the fact that there is but
one Know Nothing ia the field furnish sat
hcient evidences Of their intentions We
are therefore Ia favor OF the Convention,
and hope that a man IN every way qnalN
fed for the position may be chosen.
