A Sectional Contast.

The Black Republican party have made their
nominations, and completely ignored one whole
section Of the Confederaey. II they succeed. we
are to have a Northern President with Vice.
President chosen from the same section; a,d
perhaps, n Cabinet taken exclusively from the
FREQ States.
1t requires no extensive acquaintance with tho
designs of the trainers Of the Constitution, to en-
able anybody to perceive that their purpose. and
the spirit Of that instrument is violated when one
class Of States is ignored in the selection of tho
officers Of the government.
Tho vary fact that the Constitution specifically de-
cares that the President and yiccPresident sb all
be chosen from different States, indicates clearly
that the trainers of - instrument sought to o.
chew sectional or local predominnnce in tho GOV
erumebt, By excluding any one State, or class of
States, from an undue share in It's control.
How then, can tho Black Republican party
evnde the charge of being sectional both in its
aims and in ts nomination of candidates? The
Southern man who will support tho candidates,
however worthy in themselves Nominated under
such circnmstan is nm enemy to his own see
ton aud traitor to the Union. He should be
branded MS such. and driven by tho indignant
irown Of the people from the section he is willing
10 degrade; but which, thank heaven, has not
many such recrcnnt sons. There are some, how
ever. upon the soil of Nirginin, who have aided
and abetted in the treason perpetratcd Mt Chca'
90. They should be expelled not by force, but
by withdrawal of sympathy, countenance. and
support. They are Virginiaus only in name, and
have proven themselves to Lo unworthy Of tho
proud distinction they bear. 1t is. however, within
the power of the South to defeat the Chicago ticket
by voting for Bell and Everett. the only national
candidates that will be presented to the people.
| The Democracy have split in twain, and if they
make any nomination Mt Baltimore, it will be that
OF Douglns, who is scarcely less obnoxious than
Lincoln whilst the Southern wing Of the party
will offer JEDI. Davis some other representative
of extreme opinions. The only hope OF the coun-
Try now hangs on the selection Of tho candidates
put forward with such unanimity. by the national
men at Baltimore, aud for whom the highest conf
dcnce and regard is felt in every quarter Of the
| land.
| We shall SEQ now whether the Democracy who
have not tho ghost of chance in tho COMM,
contest, will unite upon the candidates we have
presented, or stick to their distractions, and
thereby aid in the success of the Black Ropubli-
| cans.

TUE JAPANESE EMBASSY AT WASHINGTON Yea
terday, at noon, the Japanese Commissioners, at
tended by two three members Of their suite, and
the United States Naval Commission, all in car.
ringes, and preceded by their treaty box borne on
the shoulders Of two OF their servants, proceeded
to the State Department, where their treaty with
this government was duly ratified in the Office of
the secretary. On their arrival there, in their
presence and that Of Secretary Cass, Assistant
Secretary Appleton, and two or three others Of
the Department, tho copies of the document were
carefully compared, and certificates Of the cor
rectuess Of each were duly signed and exchanged
when Gen. Cass said to Them that it afforded
him great pleasure to exchange treaties, and he
hoped it would bind the two countries together
more CLOSELY.
The Ambassadors replied through their inter-
prefers that they were exceedingly obliged to the
secretary. and hoped that the peace between the
two governments might DO everlasting
! They were then informed that all tho business
was accomplished, and all returned to tho hotel
1t is stated that tho Japanese were very reluc
tant to accept the invitation Of Gen. Cass for the
soireo on Friday night. They objected that it was
contrary to their usage and instructions to 20 out
after dark. They positively declined Mt first the
acceptance Of the invitation. but were persuaded
that this was an exceptional case, rs the visit wa,
requested by high public functionary, and tn.
