THE POLITICAL ORGANIZATION or
'.. THE DAY.

We perceive, by notice in our news col
umns, tina. the old whig party, Of Broadway
House fame, has again risen from its nshe,
and started a new organization under the
ancient banner. This gives no less than
five distinct party organizations in the field
to wit, the Tammany Hall democracy, old
and tho Tnmmnny new, the republican, the
whig aud tho Know Nothing or American
with all their numerous cliquss and sub-di
visions. Nearly all these organizations are
hended BY professional politicians who de-
sire to keep their names before the public
in order TO bs rcndy to cut in for the spoils
in the event Of new deal Of the political
cards. They are purely arbitrary, and they
represent no positive strength. Still, in the
event of a heated Presidential contest. such
ms the next federal election promises to be,
they may be all important as controlling OF
influencing large floating vote. It is well
enough, then, to keep an eye upon their
movements, which may yet produce very
significant results. The old wings evident.
ly do not intend to die without struggle
They have su'ious intentions of fconvoking u
niecting in this city, the object Of which con-
veniion is 10 bring about full, free and fair
discussion Of the political issues Of the day,
and their bearing upon the prospects, of the
opposition in the next campaign. 1t 10 pro.
posed that this meeting shnll be addressed
by the eminent statesmen who were laid up
on tho shelf BY the anti slavery agitation,
but whose nnmes are still strong with peo-
pie that often negec,s but never forgets.-
A gathering of such men ns Everett, Choate
and " Ninthrope, OF Massachusetts,; Evans, of
Maine; Washington Hunt, of New York;
Crit,endsn, Of Kentucky, and Bell, of Ten
nessee. could not fail to carry with it great
weight, and exercise extended influence over
the country. We should see, whils second
third and fourth rate men were squabbling
about petty things IN Congress, the really
prominent aud leading statesmen Of the conr.
try, including men who are out of Office,
and never expect to be in, coming together
with purely patriotic motives to exchange
their views upon the great questions before
the nation. Whatever might b. the ultimate
effect Of such meeting, there can be M
doubt ti,nt it's immediate results would in.
fuse healthy sentiment into the politics Of

CRUELTY KILLED BY KIspNEss--A Young
woman in Vermont married n poor but wor-
thy man, against her fathers wish. He
drove them from his house md closed his
DOOR and heart against them. They came in
to the vicinity Of Boston; went to work and
pr"spered. After many years the father had
occasion to go to Boston. He concluded to
90 and see his daughter, expecting coldrs-
ception. His daughter and her husband re-
ceved him most kindly and lovingly. After
staying with them awhile he went back 10
Vermont. One of his neighbors, hearing
where he had been, asked him how his
daughter and husband had treated him.
"In yer was so trented before in my life"
said the weeping and broken hearted father.
"rhey have broken my heart, they have kill
cd mel don't feel ns though could live
under it," "Whnt did they do u your
asked the neighbor, Did they nbnse you'll"
THY or'd me TO death, and killed me rith

daughter, who loved ne so afirrI,"nr,ely ]

grieved my precious child, when l spurued
her from my door. Heaven bless them, and
forgive my cruelty and injustice to thsm."
Who does not see in this an intsllibls
cure for difficulties between man and III an
There is not child or man on snrth who
would not feel and say that the daughter,
though deeply wrongcd and outraged by her
angry father, did right in treating him rs she
did. That father vas her enemy, but she
was not his. lie hated her, but she loved
him!

REPUBLICAN CANDIDATES FOR THE
PRESIDENCY.

In the Republican party there seems 10 b
even greater difference Of opinion in refer.
ence TO q ,nddats for the Presidency In
1860, than there 70 ,in the Democratic party
The New York Tines, a leading Republican
organ, has some apeculations a. to the
chances of the different candidates proposed
10 a recent article, from which we take the
following extract; .l.-.,.,
The instinct Of Abe party 10 to nominate
Governor Seward, not only as the ablsst and
most conspicuous statesman Of the party, but
ns it's best representative. and the man who
has done the must ~ build Il up. In this
S,nte the feeling IN his favor promises 10 bs
almost unanimous. The principal obstacle
grows ont Of the distinct and strongly pro-
nounced hostility Of the Americans, who caat
sixty thousand votes IN shis State last No
vember, and whoss y Hing sentiment ID much
stronger than tksir frnui6ets, bath IN this
State and elsewhere. The grent mass Of this
party is invincibly hostile to Governor Sew
ard. and also, though possibly in n less de-
gree, TO Governor Chase, his western COM
pelit0r. There 10 movement on their part,
of which the apparent object is to bring for
ward Senator Crittendon, but which probably
means something else, ,ns The dominant seuti-
ment Of the party is favorably to Young
America. Governor Banks is a favorite with
them, md If he lived ou: Of New England,
would undoubtedly be strongly pressed for
the nomination.
"But new Republican movement 10 jus,
announced, which may command attention
1t is to make Col. Fremont again the candi-
date, putting upon the ticket with him some
live southern or Southwestern man. like
Blair, of Missouri, who hns ability, political
courage, and the advantage Of living in a
slave State. Asa general thing, a candidate
who has been defeated once is not favorite
for a second run, unless he has extraordinary
abilities or political position. Frenont's
large vote in 1856, however, may supply the
place of these requisites. But at present the
proclivity Of the party is to nominate some
representative man-some one whose life
gives n guarantee for his opinions and hi,
nction-nnd We have very little doubt that
just at present, ut all events, Mr.. Sewart
would command the,votes Of decided ma
jori:y of the Republican party. What change,
n year may bring AZ ut can only be eonjpc
tured. They are quite as likely to 10 in hi.
favor a. against him."

IlIGH, Low, JACK, AND THE MAIN-sAIL-
The sailors Of the !illibuste schooner Susan
deserted before the vessel got out Of the bay.

cspt the captain, and II is traditional at sea
that Il 10 not ensy to convert landsman into
q sailor a. short notice. The ssa-dogs have
phrases Of their own. which are Greek To the
others. To obviste this defect, Captain
AIaury took a novel and ingenious sxpsdisnt
Every man on board, We suppose, knew how
to play cards, and the captain, taking advan
tags of this skill, tied card to each Of the
ropes Of the vesssl. The order then ran
somewhat in this fashion: "tlaul on the ace
Of hsartsi" "Lst 60 the king Of diamondsT'
"Belay the deuce OF spadss." &c. BY this
means the sxtsmporized sailors soon got the
hang of,hs ropes, spd affairs went on pretty
smoothly.
