The Demecratic Nominations-TheR evo-

The double nominations by the two divisions
Of the democratic party at Baltimore have con-
founded the calculations of both the republican
and democratic journals They are all at sea,
without compass. or rudder, or chart, and in
the thick darkness which covers the subject
there is no landmark visible. Some of the de-
mocratic journals are for Breckenridge, some
for Douglas, and some for neither. like the
Albany Aaas-Argus, which is waiting to find
out the strong side. The republican journals,
confident of victory for themselves, ore specu-
lating on the effects of the new order Of things
in the split camp OF their opponents. None of
them sees that it is the beginning of revolu-
ton at the South-a revolution not Of blood,
but at the polls-and which will extend to the
North, and establish a new conservative party
on the ruins of the democracy, brought to the
pangs of dissolution by foul corruption within.
Ever since 1928 there has been powerful
party in the South in opposition to the de-
mocracy. In 1910 they elected General
Harrison President, and were then known as
wings They are now known as Union men,
They consisted Of the principal planters and
men Of wealth, who were not politicians, while
the democratic party at the the South consisted
of adroit and penniless professional men in the
large cities and towns, whose followers consisted
chiefly of the non-slaveholding population.
by combining with Northern politicians of the
same stamp with themselves, they generally
managed to defeat their opponents and lux
uriated in political power and the spoils Of
Office. Breckenridge is one of this class-a mere
adventurer On the other hand, Bell. Of the
Union ticket, represents the respectable and
wealthy classes, identified with the great slave
holding interests in the South-the successors of
the old wing party-which have overthrow the
democracy more than once or twice. owing to
it's discussions and profigacy. Now, again. the
democratic party are divided-divided be-
tween Breckenridge and Douglas; and that
not only at the North. but even at
the South. They are rotten to the core; and
In view of their coruptions and divisions, the
opposition party, following the standard of Bell,
who, unlike Breckenridge, has stake in the
community, will carry 30 many Southern States
as to defeat either Of the democratic tickets;
while Lincoln unless q political miracle hap
pens, will sweep the North, and be elected
by the people.
And the election Of the candidate Of the re-
publican party may have salutary effect upon
the democratic party and on the South. He
would be an excellent dose for the 6re-eaters
who threaten secession. They may have to swal-
low him. bitter as be is; but they will not seoede.
On the contrary, Old Abe would cure them Of
secession. BY their insane divisions the demo-
cracy are broken up, North and South Whom
God would destroy he first drives mad. The
days of their power are numbered, and the
| sceptre Is about to depart from their hands.
If the Union ticket should not be successful now,
II is only because republicanism will triumph
for the time; and the Union party at the South
| will become the nucleus Of the opposition,
which combining with the conservative ele-
ments in the Northern States, will overthrow
the republicans in 1864, and transfer the rod Of
| empire once more from the North to the South,
but consign 1t TO very different hands.
The New York Tribrme-the chief organ Of

larger share-while the planter influence"
will be given TO Bell and the Union ticket.
Breckenridge Is not the candidate Of the slave
holders, but Of the professional politicians and
non-slaveholders; and the "real democratic
party which the Tribune expects TO be

since, but has grown into decrepitude and de-
