III The political excitement seems to be on the IN
crease. The Democracy in this State seem TO have
become unit by one Of those cSrions affairs that
sometimes occur and restore harrs6ny. Mr.. WISE 81
virginia. addressed remarkable letter about three
weeks since to the Hon. John G. Withen, Hard,
and friend. This letter, by not
intentionally made public about the time the
State Central Committee met ut Albany, on the Sd OF
August. Its effect was instantaneous The hards,
some Of whom have been in the Wise" movement,
and active for district delegates to 60 to the Charles
ton Convention got scared and with their old Hard

union with the Softs, and consented to have the
thirty.ye delegates for Charleston appointed by the

It exhibited design to cheat Douglas. The con.
sequence is that Douglas has increased his strength
in the organization very materially in consequence Of
the letter Of Mr.. Wise, and it is generally conceded
that the thirty-ve delegates from this State will
throw their votes for Douglas at Charleston.
The news from Tennessee, that majority of the
members of Congress had been elected, is quite in
spring to the new party 1t is now almost certain
that the Old Line Wings, the Americans, Conserya.
tive Republicans and dissatisfied Democrats in the
North will form " National Union Conservative Op
position party" and in concert with the Southern
Opposition, hold national convention early next
spring. and nominate candidates for the Presidency
and Vice Presidency. The Nucop' alliance is as
strongly opposed To Black Republicanism as to De-
mocracy In MARYLAND the party will be strong and
control everything. The following, which clip
from the Republic (Buifalo) tells whole story:

The above is pretty true, with this exception: In
Ohio the Americans have called State Convention
to meet at Columbus, the Gath instant, to nomi.
nate State ticket and also to select delegates to
National Convention, entirely disconnected with the
Republican party.
In New Jersey, they do know what to do. An i'm.
mense gathering Of Americans was held at Camden
on the 18th instant. Spirited resolutions were passed
and an American Opposition Convention of the State
is called at Camden on the LIST September. These
men denounce the Black Republicans and Democrats
Commodore Stockton made long speech. In Viz.
ginia the Opposition are wide awake, and can as
sure you in this State the Americans and Old Line
Wings are not going to be harnessed up in the Repub
lican team. A Conservative State ticket (Nucop)
will be nominated, and is good for 15e 900 votes In
the city the Democracy will unite on the Mayoralty
