BLACK Republican sympathy for Mr..


EIheridge.
The New York Day Book has been pouring hot
shot into the Opposition al The South scceunt Of
their sympathy and utilization with tho abolitiOnists
It shows in a late issue how warmly that sympathy
is returned by the Northern Republican organs.
The Louisville journal and olker Opposition jour
mails at the South, says the Day Boob TO think
that we are wonderfully out Of The way in stating
that MIR ETHEBIDor OF Tennessee, gets The Eympa-
thy of the Black Republicans of the North The
cOuitr aad Enquirer OF this city thu only out-aLd-
out SEWARD paper here ssys il sis glad that H. WIS-
TER DAVIS is re nominsted Tor ConRress snd that
such men as Messrs GILMER, OF North Carolina,
and ETuERIDsE Of Tennessee, ars reelected" and
it adds, the Republican party csnnol give them
its regular clasp Of fellowship yet they always
will Iossess tts respect and hearty symPathp
How could these nen have - the sincere respect
aud hearty sympathy u The AbolilOnists, if they
we're not assisting their cause? Depend upon it,
Southern men deceive themselves when they give
such g aid aud comfort TO their enemies as the
election Of such men furnish.

The New Yourk JOvrHdl Of Commerce says: 'Con-
adorable discussion has taken place, since the sd-
journment of the Democratic Convention at syria
Suse, respecting the political preferences of the
Delegates appointed to Charleston. paper in this
city has CLASSIFIED them as DICKINSON &c, Dove
Las 81, SEYMOUR =, GUrHRrE 9, WISE 4, HUNTER
4, Co.'s /, Hour I, BuCHANAN ;, ORR l. Others
have mado q different classification, giving SLY
NouE end DICKINSON the entire delegation, divided
between the two in various proportions. We ap-
prehend that those who thus speculate upon the
action Of the Delegation eight months hence, are
speaking without a full understanding of the case
and that there is no such contest among the Dele
Gates from this State, on the subject of Presiden-
kisl nomination as would be inferred from the
nsnts which iiud their way into the columns Of the
press
oUnder resolution Of the State Convention, the
Delegation from New York will be unit in the
Charleston Convention casting the vote of the State
- Q majority Of the Delegates msy direct. Their
6nGl action, therefore, as indeed their entire action
IN the Convention, must be harmonious whatever
preferences each delegate may have as to candi-
dates, in his iniigtnal capacity We do not anti
cipste any such struggle between the friends of
Mr.. Dickinson aud Mir. SEYMOUR at Charleston, IS
has been predicted by those who desire to witness
. contest between these distinguished men.
ait is not perhaps, probable that in the first in
stance any candidate will be presented by the New
York delegation 10 the Convention If the Democ-
rsey Of the cOuutry eau agree upon any one of the
distinguished men Of the South who have been
named for the Chief Nagstracy, it is not probable
that the New York Delegation will interpOse any
obstacles to bis selection by the Convention. But
failing 10 secure such uuaaimty upon any Southern
candidate and compelled to look TO the North for
successor to our present Executive, it will be the
duty Of the Delegation, chosen with so much una
nimity by the Syracuse Convention, 10 compare
views and opinions to consult not only with each
other, but with the representatives from other
items Of the Union, and finally to cast the thrty6ve
votes with which they are entrusted for sush Ma
