HON. CALEB CUSHING.
lrrOiH tho towcil (sia.,.) Advertiser ]

The name of Gen. Cushing has been mentioned by q
portion of the press in connection with nomination for
Congress in district No 6. His nomination and election
to seat in national legislature would be inn
portant and scnsibe political than any
that have been performed in Massachusetts for than
ten years past His pre- eminent ability, profound learn
ing experience statesman and devotion TO the con-
stuton and the Union would at once place him at the
head of The House Of Representatives The influence he
would thus be enabled to exert in bringing Massachusetts
and all New England into business and political harmony
with the rest of the Union would be greater than any
other living Without this harmony and mutuality
OF feeling feeling that will not admit imaginary
difference Of interests to interfere with business and
social relations feeling that shall unite together in
common bond the agricultural West, the cotton and
sugar-growing South and our commercial and manufac
turing New England, shall find, long, as great
falling off in wealth and business interests as we have
already experienced in political consequence. In
der to sustain manufacturing and commercial inter
ess, we must learn to avoid warning upon the local in
tcest and institutions of other sections of the Union
leaving those sections to manage their local affairs
in their own way precisely in the way they leave
us to manage
BY pursuing contrary course New England has lost
all political power in the nation and will never regain it
until she shall send, not only honest men to Congress
but of broad comprehensive national views on all
questions of public POLICEMEN who, like Mr.. Cushing
harmonic the views and interests of the different
sections. Our present delegation all aware is
composed of fanatics and intermediary who have Meth
the ability tho inclination the influence do any
thing for the promotion of individual interests Pull
pit politics, instead Of constitutional policy have SO long
governed councils that every branch of business in
New England has been made to suffer, and 1t will
tnue to suffer until cergynen shall attend solely

No step be taken for the accomplishment of this re-
FORM essential to the salvation our business ncr-
ess important better calculated directly to eff

occupy proud position not only in the coun-
ellis Of the nation but also in her commercial manuac

though Gustavns Adophus Seroggs Erastus Brooks,
and Joel Il Headley were present-then we may ex-
pect the prompt capitulation of the republican con-
vention at Syracuse TO the Americans lSno nothing
convention and the revvfcaton of the latter as the
organic power that is to beat down the de-
mocracy in 1860. Should the republicans wilful-
~ and wickedly adhere TO their old organization
then the game is up with the poor Americans, and
Mahomet win be compelled to bite his finger nails
or rouse himself up and so over TO the mountain
The problem will be solved on the eventful 9th of
September The battle of Lake Erie was fought on
the tenth OF the same month. We suggest to the
victorious party that they shall adopt the laconic
language of Perry in communicating to the world
the result of the battle between the great Ameri
can council and the great republican party Let it
be, "We have met the enemy and they are ours p
There will be no trouble in arranging the capitula
ton, as both parties will be wholly unarmed. As
matter of interest and amusement to the country
whatever may be the result, we trust Mr.. Gustavus
Adolphus Scroggs Mr. Erastus Brooks, and Mr.. Joel
T. Headey will be permitted to close the ceremonies
with their usual "brief and pertinent remarks"
As the case stands, if we may be allowed word
of comment on the attitude of the parties, the
chances for republican success seem very much
clouded in doubt. That awful and exclusive refer
ence to three or four southern patriots especially in
view of the recent elections in Kentucky, and the
general expression of determination to adhere
strictly to American principles promise little to the
aboltoniss beyond the privilege awarded to them of
coming bodily into the know-nothing lodges Win
they do it? We think it extremely doubtful. Win
the Americans disband and go over to the repub-
cans? What would then become of the country I?
In fact we cannot see any rational prospect of the
union Of the opposition. 1t must be remembered
that the Syracuse convention is State, not nation
al affair.

THE REVIVAL MEETING OF THE AMERICAN
STATE COUNCIL, NEW YORK

Our readers know that the American State conn
Gil met at Albany the other day, and. after n ttle
talk resolved to meet in State convention on the sb
OF September at Syracuse, tho day set apart for the
republican State convention at the same place The
question discussed was simply whether the two
conventions should be held at Syracuse on the 9Th
Of September. 1t was decided in the affirmative bv
a vote Of 163 to SO.
The American State council was iubilant hope
full, and we should say, looking its proceed
ings, o most pious and perpetual institution If its
members right there arc few chances of political
preferment in this country, and none whatever of
salvation in future life, except through the know
nothing organization.
We recollect nothing in the way Of political re-
vivals at all equal to the tonc temper and hopeful
spirit Of the council 1t is true they talked magnil-
oIuently Of fusion with the abolitonists, and an
pointed the 9Th OF September the day for holding
their State convention, avowedIy with a view Of
reaching that end but the mountain, of course ia
expected to pack up its buds and go over to Ma
homet-the republicans must capitulate to the
know-nothings. That is certainly all right Itwoud
queer to the Prophet surrender to tho Infide
the Christian to the Jew. II is not a question Of
numbers, bnt Of principles The American princi-
pies, too-how could they be surrendered to the alb
olitonists without running the chances of special
dspensation that might throw the whole people Of
this Union into the hands Of Napoleon or at least
Lord Pamerston, including surrender on our part
of the right of search?
The question OF numbers as between the know
nothings and republicans was not we observe the
subject of consultation in the council. How could
they BIO expected to descend to such vulgar partcu-
hrs ? 1t was enough that they pointed the repub-
icans--it was indeed most signifcantto Crittenden,
