The Constellation demars to the unanimous rec
ignition Of VIM. III. Seward as President elect of
the united states, as suggested by the New York
Courier and Examiner and thinks that that jour
nal places rather too high estimate on the po-
Iueai conservatism and executive capacities Of
the distinguished Senator.
The Consultation elsewhere argues that the DEM
ocratic masses are opposed to extreme doctrines
The fn'shissHe1 agrees with th. Mobile Advcr-
tissr that the whigs 81 the country should not
suffer themselves To be betrayed into seeming
operation with the extreme wings Of the Democ-
