on the question Of electing man who will himself
unite all parties aud enable us to present unbro

calmly await tho action of the Convention, trusting
10 its wisdom. patriotism and virtue, for q nomina-
ton that will Gil the measure of our wants at this
time. Mr. Lane, of Oregon, is one Of those strong

minded statesmen, powerful in debate, enthusiastic
and far-seeing, and one Of those remarkable men
that are worshiped by the masses He is formida-
Die competitor for any asprant, and will prove as

drop of blood in his cause. Mr. Wise, the greatest
political Zonaye of the times has nearly suffered his
vaultng ambition TO oyerleap itself and has urged
his impetuous stced far into the battle, that he is
now exposed alike TO the shot OF friend or foe There
is no retreat for hm,-to escape, he must draw his
trencbant b,ade and rush madly through, looking
neither to the right nor the left, and regard neither
the cries Of the wounded nor tho shouts Of chthus
asic partsans He is capable of this course, but
his late unfortunate letter has tabled his ezpecta-
lions for a while, and drawn cloud around his
prospects that will require all his energy and force
of character to dissipate.
The idea that the nomination must necessarily
come from the North, we consider ridiculous, unless
we are willing to concede to the democracy of the
North less Of nationality than we posses at the South
less cancellation and less confidence in our states
men. When speak of the nationality of the par
ty, and its devotion to the Union, pay it a poor
compliment when we say that our next candidate
must necessarily come from this or that section Let
the nominee be reliable democrat of national repu-
tation, from the North from the South, and we
predict that he will receive the unanimous support OF
all those democrats who have acted with the party,
and stood by it when times were dark,-who have
acted for tic good of the country, in complete
abnegation of self, and disregard of local prejudi
ces Such demo rats will support the nominees of
the Charleston Convention.
