What will he the f feet!

This question has been asked of us both Baltimore
and since our urn home in connection with the action
of the National Democracy at Baltimore.
We are not endowed with the gift of prophecy we
cannot look into the future-we cannot do than
reason from facts before This any do, and
the specu!aons of men of equal intelligence about of
equal value if they have paid the attention to the
subject under consideration.
That this is trying time for the Democracy of the
country, no deny. That this trial has been
brought upon it by the which have before
at sundry times threatened its integrity and worked its
defeat equally evident The chief of these has
been the substitution of men for principles. The devo
ton of partizans to particular Individual at the
pense of the party in preference to it has worked its
legitimate result Tile Democracy instead of being q
Democracy has been sought to be converted into des
potism. Hence resistance and separation.
Although mere Convention has been dsnte grated
although organization has been for the time, weakened
yet the Democratic principle of State equality has been
indicated and will reassert its supremacy 10 preserve
that equality in the party will be one and not the least
important of the effects of the independent movement OF
the national Democracy at Baltimore. The publication
of the party will be another. Mere management will
no longer Suffice and men will know that much hereafter
What will be the immediate effects upon this canvass
In answer we are free acknowledge that success would
have been more certain with united Convention and
unanimous nomnation-hot too evident to be denied
but failing that through the unconceding spirit of the
friends of Judge Douglas the Convention did the best
they could under the Circumstances-they nominated
good and true meu-they flung to the breeze the banner
of true national democracy They trust under Provl-
dence to the good and patriotism Of the people OF
the whole country for ratification of their nominations
at the polls in November next 1t may be that the evil
effects of all noIcrant and overlooking spirit may yet
lead the leaders of the Douglas movement to reflect and
the people to demand united movement in favor of
tona principles. But way another, the effect OF
doing rghtactng up to conscientious conviction can
never be intimately doubtful. With their convictions
Of right the majority of the delegates from North Caro-
lima could have pursued no other course.
We believe the whole South ought to concentrate
upon Breckenridge and Lane AS soon as their doing
so is fully understood they will command the coopera
ton of the whole conservative portion of the North and
with an honest and determined effort be and
will be achieved before the people. II WE waver and
despoud we lost, if concentrate and work like
men we will succeed.
