used to cover up and indorse hs " Kansas Neo'as-
la acts Of 1854" which repesled the Mssoan
Compromise and opened that Pandora's box Of eShs
and strife, which have been scattered oroadcast
over the Union since then, the experiment. Is NOT
entitled TO much favor, and is not likely To com
mand success This movement will probably be
followed by general rep1diston Of Judge Doug
las in the South and more confirmed rupture In
the ranks of the Democracy, which some well DIS
posed but yerdant politicians believed were clos
ing up and barnonizing.
The Constitution denied, in q conspicuous para
graph, yesterday morning, that any concessions or
terms were made either by the President or Mr.
RobertJ Walker in their recent reconciliation. This
may be true literally, and probably the statement was
drawn with reference 10 that construction. 1t 1t
be true in any shape or form, directly OF indirectly,
it only adds to the shame and humiliation of both
parties, after what had notorousy occurred. TWAS
lot possible for tSR honorable men to come together
without the argestan fullest retractions, who had
60 openly and unquslifedly assalled each other
Mr.. Walkers denunciations are known everywhere,
and it may be said within bounds, have been heard
by hundreds here-denunciations, too, expressive
Of the utmost scorp, eontumely, and reproach.
How he could advance TO personal terms, or allow
friends tontsrfere without recalling these repeated
and most offensive imputations, is utterly incom-
prehensble 10 minds which value integrity and
honor the relations by which individual respect can
alone be maintained 1t is well known in this city,
whatever may be asserted by any organ to the con-
trary that some time was required patch up tins
truce and if there was no actual treaty drawn,
there was lust as clear an understanding as between
France and Russia in regard to the respective parts
which they are to play in the great European
drama.
The official paper is now almost exclusively de-
voted to lAudation of the President and Cabinet.
The immortal eek hundred readers are willing to
stand much in support of the cause and The Con.
stitution but Il is is really plng on the agony and
ia not quite the entertainment 20 which they were
invited. Considering that Mr.. Wendell contrib
utes s. 0C0 per spnum from the executive printing,
and the Departments furri,h about 81, OC0 more IN
the shape of Advertising for the support OF this pa
per- it is as natural as 1t is modest that the Ad-
ministration should be praised at the public ex-
pense. But as we have seen nothing Of the sort at
and fails below those approved models which are TO
be found in German Prncipaities where Barons
may be bought by the acre. 1t must be very re-
fre,hiDg for the Secretaries to see the nselyes IN
print at the breakfast table, and to be called upon
before dinner to furnish their proportion OF the
daily proyender for the organ.
WASHINGTON, June %, 1859.
The orthodox Democracy are after Douglas with
sharp stick. They denounce him for setting up
as dictator, for distracting the harmony of the
party and finally, for not pledeing himself to abide
the Charleston nomination. These are the prncl-
pal counts of an indictment regularly entered in
the organ of yesterday and to be echoed wherever
Official lungs can be found, throughout this glorious
Union, which, after being so repeatedly saved, is
again imperiled. The key note has been sounded,
and music of discord may be expected. Many
of the personal adherents Of Douglas regard
his manifesto a blunder, which cannot be easily
repaired by provoking controversy, when his
policy was peace, cOncliatiOn and probably submis-
sion. They forget, however, that these issues
which he has now conveniently adopted, will have
TO be made at Charleston anyhow, and may be as
well discussed now then. Besides, as the party
is only bundle of fragments at best, and is already
doomed TO defeat, there is hardly any use of dis
turbng the public with these internal strfes. They
might tave good taste enough after 80 long lease
of Office, to retire gracefully before fate, and let
us come in without hearing these despairlng jere-
mads.
The Presidents journal is very much exercised at
the publicity given 10 the reconciliation between
Robert j. Walker and the incumbent of the White
House 1t is found to be harmful at the South, and
hence very resentful bulletin was issued day or
two since denying that any treaty of peace had
been signed. The material fact could not be de-
MED, nor the dinner that followed, which every
body knows is not given gratis. Notwithstanding
all these official protestations, the assertion is re-
peated in well informed quarters that conditions
were made, and considering what has heretofore
passed, is is very natural they should have been.
Without some explanations it is hardly possible a
reconciliation could have been effected unless at
tended by the most abect and degrading humilia-
tion. No man in or out of Washington has de-
nOunced the President and his Cabinet so fercely
and unquallfedly as Mr.. Walker, and not only a.
to their political course, but almost in every other
respect. If no concessions have been given, how
did they come together after such anmOsty
which, though smooth upon the surface just now.
rankes as deeply as ever below.
Whatever may be the composition Of the new
British Ministry, there is no prospect Of any
change in the Mission here. When Lord Lyons
was transferred 10 Washington, it was with per-
feet understanding that his post would be perma-
nent, according to the order Of diplomatic routine.
Hence, other reports to the contrary are unau
tborized by fact or probability. The British Gov
ernment has the good sense, when they get the
right man for the right place, to keep him there;
and the developments made by the Crlmean war
in various branches Of the public service, have
tended very much to establish this principle more
rigidy than heretofore TIE recall of Lord Ma
pier is still mystery which all the speculstions
have not satisfactorily explained. Lord Malmes-
bury assigned no reason, except that he supposed
the transfer to the Hague would be agreeable, on
account of Lady Nspier's health-which, by the
way, was quite as good if not better than
