SPIRIT OF THE MORNING. PRESS

~ AAAfL oE = no luohLSLZNo Lsx<kSo
The COnstitUfion in commenting upon the
letter Of Judge Douglas in regard to a Charles
ton nomination, which we published yesterday,
suggests that conventions are composed of the
representatives of the party from all sections
of the Union, and that their purpose is to recon-
cile conflicting opinions and agree to platform
Of principles on which all can stand, and to
nominate candidates to sustain those principles
whom all can support. 1t consequently re-
CARDS the publication Of this letter as an attempt
to fOist upon the Charleston Convention pri-
vste platform carved out to exactly suit the
political antecedents of the author, and at the
same time to associate him Intimately with the
National Democratic party. What is said In
the letter about the " Interpolation into the
creed of the party such new issues as the re-
yivaI Of the African slave trade, 60, /" the Com
StitNtiON pronounces simply gratuitous and
uncandid repetition Of q Republican SANDER.
The Constitution has an article commend
atOry Of the good management of the War
Department under the present Administration.
The blteIi,gsncer, treating upon the rela-
tons of the Pspacy to the italian war, after
citing the political difficulties with which the
Pope has long had to contend, suggests whether
the interests not only Of the Papal dominions,
but also Of the Catholic world, would not be
best subserved by the entire release Of the
Holy Father from the cares of State, under
which he must needs be oppressed.
