Tat it win be largely attended, there is no reason
II - 3onbt Iii ganeing over our country exchanges,
from time to time, we have noticed the proceedings

pointrnent Of delegates 1t is quite probable every

own way, and acting upon the presumption that the
future will be but reex of the past enjoys, very
naturally, advantages and attractions of superior
character. The victorious are always cheered The
successful never lack eulogists. The triumphant
even if they were destitute Of every ennobng attrl-
bnte-never need supporters. suchi the way Of the
world, and such will continue the way Of the world
until the millennium arrives and the Devil is securely
chained. &
But were the reverse the case, we opine there
would be no perceptible difference. Our opponents
always up to their politiea fodder OF no
fodder" and by so doing, generally get the atore-
said rack full Of the finest kind of fodder, in the long
run They never become lukewarm, much less give
up under an overwhelming pressure Of opposition In
their vocabulary, no such word fail can be found,
For this theyare to be admired, and hence ALSO the
signal success they have achieved.
While, however, we freely yield thus much, we are
not sure the convention will entirely as
to the appontmentof delegates to the National Con
vention. As matters now stand, the six votes Of
Louisiana may decide questions of vital Importance
toasprants for a nomination to the Presidency OF
Vice Presidency. There is no one, among the cand
dates spoken Of, who wields preponderating infiu
ence sufficient TO enable him to spare the vote even
of the smallest State. In the field there are Dallas
and Davis, Buchanan and Slidel Pierce and anybody
who will ruiz for Vice. Wise, Dickinson, Qutman ant
others of whom have strong friends-who vii
split the National Convention into as many factions
or parties. =
tall events we apprehend the principal difficulty
Of the Baton Rouge Convention will hinge on thi
point, and without claiming to be prophets Or TIL
sons Of prophets, venture the prediction that thu
result will show selection of Buchanan and Slidel
delegation! The orders of the Central' have gon'
forth and must be obeyed.
As to the platform, there will be no difficulty abou
that. 1t will be intensely american, q in
tensely" Democratic, ",intensely'' Southern an,
intensely patriotic, etc, ETC., etc. It is just
easy to turn out platforms is for single machine
to turn out shingles-tirst rate, smoothly shaved
uniform shingles.
The telegraph will probably give us some items 70
tomorrow and, in the meantime, we hope all person
concerned will have q good time of it.
