WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP.

DOINs GOOD SEkvTcE.-Mr. Sumner in his late
speech, has done his country infinite service
The newspapers come to us from all sections of
country replete with comments upon 1t. We do
not mean to intimate that we have vet seen q
single newspaper criticism of it dignfyinp It
with the title Of argument upon the question
the Senator from Massachusetts aimed to discuss
not one The comments upon il are altogether
upon It's tone, and the position with reference TO
the rights Of the South guaranteed by the Consti
tuition In which Ii places the political party in
whose behalf IL was pronounced. Every Ameri-
can journalist who has far noticed it. as far "a,
we nave seen, regards II as mere phillippic-a
violent tirade-against the institution of African
slavery, very artistically pronounced As an
essay filed with polished and classical gall and
bitterness, but entirely falling to embrace single
SUBSTANTIAL argument, or even single point
likely to convince any man not already as in
tenseiy craEed with abolitionism as VIM. Llovd
harrison or John Brown, of the soundneSs of any
one OF Its positions. Nevertheless his ESSAY is
doubtless destined to serve good end, in the
way Of warning the country that the party In
whose behalf 1t was spoken cannot obtain control
OF The Government Of the Confederacy without
merely bringing 1.-THE Confederacy-to an end
Inc Republican journals are for the most part
aPoogizing for the speech; protesting that it does
no' correctly represent their party's sentiments;
while the conservative opposition and Democratic
party press, as we'll as the independent press of
tne country, are holding the Republican party to
tigu accountability for the tenor of the political
designs so elaborately explained in the quod srat
Ser1o"SfrandHHl Of Mr. Summers pronunciamento.
we think 1t cannot fail to be worth thousands
OF votes against Lincoln, because it is simply
drawing out Of the arguments Of Lincoln him
seH' 70 the doctrines that naturally result from
Els Posnons In debate. To be sure, more shrewd
'nan MI. Sumner, he (Lincoln) takes care now
ana tnen 70 protest that he does not mean what he
says But MI Sumner fortunately demonstrates
30 clearly as that the dullest may fully compre-
hend, the exact meaning of what Lincoln does
gay: In defiance Of the latter's evident wish To
niue fha' from the country at large until after
november next. The Democratic party in Com
siess are spreading this speech (MIr. Sumner;.)
