Southern Governor majority of delegates from all the
Democratic States and majority of the Democratic
voters in such States The same rule or ruin principle
animates them that animated them at the ConVen-
ton in Charleston or in Baltimore. In New York and
in Virginia in Tennessee and in Kentucky the same
game of fusion against the true Democracy is TO oe
tried The disposition is manifested to vote Tor any
body-to fuse with anybody-to see anybody elected,
rather than Breckenridge and Lane and to cooperate
with anybody rather than like Daniel s. Dickinson
and Frank. Pierce, and Lewis Cass, and jeff Davis
and John G. Breckenridge, and every tried and time
honored leader of the Democracy. Such men as these
are to be read out for the benefit OF Stephen A Doug
las who prefers fusion with Know Nothings and land
distrbutionsts to cooperation with the Democratic
party-who would buy and sell the party to Bell and
Everett old Abe himself rather than see the chVa
rous Kentuckan Beckinrdge go into the presidential
chair.
We cannot believe that in North Carolina or Vir-
ginia this thing will make any head way. Those Demo
Gratis who rallied for the party under Wise in Virginia
will hardly combine under Douglass and Bell to fight
against Breckenridge and Lane in company with those
who so recently sought its overthrow with such vru
lent animosity. Nor with the Democrats OF North
Carolina. 1t will fall stll-born.
Well we saw Breckenridge and Lane flag in Rox
bury and another in Boston What they will do in New
England can't say, but we think they stand little
better chance than Bell and Everett and they stand as
good chance Douglas, and the ra-spiter will be
simmons East of New York. The coalition in New
York between Bell and Douglas will not benefit Doug
las much. Under whatever name aus ices Bell and
Everett present themselves their party is the same
their supporters the same with those who bore the
Know Nothing banner in former days. 1t remains to
be seen how this will affect the foreign VOTE especially
the Irish. We think it will cut two ways. The coal-
ton will hardly gain much as it will lOse
By the way, in the Northern cities the German is now
the prepondeang foreign element For years the Irish
Exodus was suspended. and the German migration
greatly increased, much outnumberng all other immi-
grafton There is affinity between the Red Repub-
lcanism of Robert Blum and Mazzini and the Black
Republicansm of Charles Sumner, and consequently
good many Germans 1T the North their first landing

This enterprising young woman, resident of New
