confused remarks of Gov. Wise, az published
'ne reader Will perceive that they involve con
ten,otible slur upon the administration. But the
Governor knows, or ought to know, that the
military expedition to Utah was not undertaken
to suppress &ormon polygamy but Mormon
rebellion against the government of the United
States The Governor knows, too, that the army in
Utah has effected something more than ''the pro-
lection Of federal prolfgfs in their Offices
it has enforced the submission of the Mormons to
the supreme authority Of the federal government.
AS for the "code of good morals" under which
Governor Wise would forcibly put down Mormon
polygamy, let such code be adopted in this
case, and there will be a precedent under which
an anti slavery administration at Washington may
undertake the suppression Of slavery in Vir
ginia.
Governor Wise must write another letter to
explain bis views on Mormonism, or all his long
barrangues on the territorial question will 90 for
nothing. In writing this explanation we hope
the Governor will be little more precise in his
specifications against the administration than he
has been, from "a decent respect for the opinions
of mankind"

The THIRD OF AUGUsr.-This will be day
big with the fate Of the democratic party. 1t is
the day appointed for the meeting of the State
Central Committee, at Albany Dean Richmond,
President; Peter Cagger, Secretary. The bust
ness Of the committee will be to appoint the
time and place and to designate the objects Of
the annual party State Convention. The legiti-
nate business Of the Convention will be the
nomination Of State ticket, and the adoption
Of platform for our November election; but it
is suspected that the State Central Committee
will attempt at this meeting, on the Sd of
August to make an opening in the Convention
for the appointment of the New York delegation
to Charleston. And this is the point of danger.
Let the Astor House committee be early on the
ground with strong force on the 3d-say,
from one to two hundred prominent men--and
perhaps they may save the party and the State.

A party like the Republican party of

citizens, and attempts to put in force a
Constitution while it is yet dead letter,
aparty which has borrowed the tactics and
logic of Candle box" Calhoun, very likely
will use "every appliance to defeat and

perate, the Republicans did not wish Gov
Medary to see the returns until they had
passed through the alembic of Mr.
Winchells pocket, and they fear defeat.
