Consistency---The Herald.

Brother Allison, of the Herald, in a
late issue of his paper steps to one side in
order to giveus piece of fatheriy coun,
sci suggestive of the candidate which we
should support for the Presidency. He
attempts to make it appear that Mr.. Blu.
chanan is in principle Native American
aud Therefore ought to be supported by
the True .American; Whatever may
have been The views entertained by Mr..
Buchanan, in former years, upon the
American question, it is quite clear that,
standing-as lie does-upon the Cincin'
natl Platform which condemns and slam
ders the American party, he cannot be
supported by any true.hearted American.
Mr.. Allison Justly charges Mr.. Buchanan
for having said that if he believed he had
Zone drop of Democratic blood coursing
in his veins he would open them aud let
it out" Why then, we would most re-
spectfully ask Mr. Allison, does he not
hoist the Buchanan flag! Where is the
difference between tie Federalists Of 1915
and the Wings of 1850? The truth is,
the only candidate now in the field whom
Mr.. Allison can support, without stultify-
ing his record, andibelying his antccedenIs,
is Millard Fillmore, a thorough Wing Of
1850, and a true friend OF the Fugitive
Slave Law. Was not Mr.. Allison zeal.
GUS supporter of Mr.. Fillmore's Admin
istration in general, and his act in sanction.
ing the Fugitive Slave Law in particular!
But men are liable TO change their views
both in regard to men and measures.

THE NOMINATIONS.

The result Of the deliberations OF the
Democratic National Convention at Gin
cinnati, was the adoption of Platform,
and the nomination of James Buchanan,
of Pa, for the Office of President, and Of
J. G. Breckenridge, of Ky, for the office
of Vice President Of the United States.
We arc but expressing the general
sentiment in this part Of the country,
when We say that the above were probably
the most popular nominations tn at the
Convention could have made. Mr.. Buchsn
an is generally regarded as one Of the
safest of the politicians now prominent il
the Democratic party-and as by nature,
at least, averse to carrying his sentiments
upon either the foreign or domestic policy
of the country TO dangerous extremes
OF Mr.. Breckenridge less known, but
he is commonly, considered man OF. fine
talents and generous impulses. The Gin
cinnali Commercial sketches his person
al appearance as follows:
Near the eastern aisle, and within a
few seats of the front-On the western
side of the aisle sits John &. Brecken-
ridge, the impersonalion of Democratic
kentucky chivalry, who won high posi-.
tion in the last Congress, and declined to
be candidate for reelection. He is a
tall and gracefully formed young man.
with delicate features, and would be sin.
gularly handsome if his profile line
were more prominent. Looking at hin
sideways, his forehead, nose and chin
are nearly in straight line. But his eye
beams with intelligence, his nose is hand
some in outline, and The habitual com
preston of his lips indicates resolute
will. On the whole there is a poetic
glimmer about him. And that there is
something Of this in his character, the
fact that he has purchased an islanC
in Lake Superior, for a summer home,
would indicate. His manner in speaking
is proud, defiant, and full of passion
tempered by educated discression.
In relation to the Plarlorm upon which
these gentlemen stand, it embodies pretty
decidedly all the policy of The present Ad
minislrstiOn. 1t endorses unequivOcally
the repeal Of the Missouri Compromis,
broadly hints that the Free State mel
in Kansas are rebels-declares that thu
famous Monroe doctrine, as to the prope
meaning Of which hardly any two politi
clans agree, "admits Of no misconstruc
tion," and "should be applied with un
bending rigidity"-squints very percep
tibly at the annexation las soon as posi-
ble) Of Cuba and Central America, an,
commends the conduct Of Gen. Wake
and The other "people" of Nicaragua
The delegates of the Southern State
along the atlantic seaboard, appear t
have squirmed considerably under III
weight Of the ilibustering portions of th
Platform ; but as the language is rathe
ambiguous, they probably will reconcil
themselves to the Objectionable passage

vative and constitutional manner. A res

DO not was the advice of a very
shrewed observer, expect to convert out
casts by crowding them into corner and
and preaching at them. You must
Christanize them by absorbing them into
the church, not by absorbing the church

to this truth when he tells us--'Kindle

until then. 1t is this that will explain the
ephemeral character Of the religion which
results from preaching in penitenliaries

close Of his long experience as chaplain at
the Lock Hospital.
There is a practical lesson to be learn

~ 1t will be seen by the telegraph
news from New York, in this paper.
that the American Convention has nomi-
nated Hon. N. P. Banks for President,
and Hon. W. F. Johnson, of Pa, for
Vice President. The Herald thinks that
the "Know Nothingism, evinced in this
move of the Convention, is as dead as
Lazarus" We would remind the Herald
that Lazarus was resuss taled within the
short space of four days, and there is no
proof from the record that he ever after
wards died. Ifthe Philadelphia Conven.
tion only has the good sense to unite
upon the same men, the contest will
result in signal triumph for Freedom.
