Burying the bones Of Reasonable
Democrats.

We copy au article from the Washington
Unioa, bitterly denunciatory of Douglas and
Wise, whom. without naming, it characterizes,
the one as ga bold adventurous legislator and
partizan giant,'' toe other as San orator Of
dashlng, slashiug, headlong eloquence," and
both Of whom it cousigus to the "catacombs" I"
where rest the remains OF sd parted politi-
clans"
In its war upon these distinguished Demo
cratic leaders the Administration now affects
no disguise of doubtful words. They, and
those who act with them, arc denounced and
accommodated. Bat the issue Of The conflict
is not yet certain to be favorable to the Presi-
dent. Neither the '.Gant" uor the "Orator'
is likely to take without giving blows. Per
haps there are no two men in the Democratic
party less fitted by nature for meek submission
than Senator Douglas and Governor Wise. II
the Administration expects to bury them quiz
etly, we predict it will fad itself mistaken
Their funeral will be largely attended by
friends more in anger than sorrow, and their
speedy resurrection may be confidently expec-
ted. The Democratic party is not strong
enough to kill off such men for such cause
Their "bones" will be found exceedingly tronb-
lesome to the official grave-diggcr.

ing. But desire to join with you in rendering
the high honor which he deserves as your Repre-.
sentative in Congress. He has borne himself as
becomes Representative OF South Carolina.
And on the perplexed question OF Kansas, Ill
which, from the apathy of the South it was so
difficult to discern the least disadvantageous way
of dealing with q bad piece of business, and
considerations of expcdiency were so doubtfully
balanced, he exhibited the true spirit and true
wisdom, by following what he believed right in
principle, in spitesof all inducements 10 swerve
from it. That on such question he should have
deliberately separated from Gen. HAMMOND, a
Senatorial Leader, whose advice was justly en-.
titled to the most profound respect; from Gen.
MCQUEEN, a State Rights Colleague, then, and
STILL as ever, implicitly to be relied on; from all
the South Carolina Delegation, and from the al:
most unanimous Southern vote, shows that he is
man for whom the corrupt Capital has no po'
lt;cal seductions, and in whom the old State
Rights Party may reposc their trust.
If there is any hope of our ever rcsaning our
freedom and Independence, believe it must be
by our public men following the example set to
them on this recent occasion by your Reprssen,
tativc and by Gen. QuITLAS, that Statesman and
Soldier, in whose uutimely death the soutl, hos
suffered so heavy loss. In the times of the
Modification struggle, there was favorjte motto
of the State Rights Party: "Do your duty, and
leave the consequences to God" 1t would be
better if this were more held in remembrance
now.
1t has long been prevalent and fatal delusion
in the South, to rely on party management for
protection against the increasing preponderancc
Of Northern power. Rare occasions may arise,
when the State Rights party of the South, by act
ting with perfect independence, and holding the
balance Of closely divided vote in Congress,
may succeed in imposing their policy upon re:
lHci4nt Northern Associates. Such iSas S the
case 10 great extent during the administrator
of Mr.. VAN BpREN. But from the nature o'
things it cannot often occur, And to expect
from this time forward, such unanimity and
fidelity amongst Southern politicians at Wash
