The vindictiveness ofthe greater num-
Der Of the Republican editors prevents
them from seeing merit in any act of the
chief magistrate of the Nation, or per-
ceiving such merit, they have not the
candor to acknowledge it. No matter
how praiseworthy or patriotic any lead
ing measure Of his Administration may
be, it is only necessary for them to
know that the President has suggested
it, to induce an immsdiatc attack. There
are, however, occasional exceptions,
which, from their very rarity, become
the more conspicuous. OF these, we
find an example in the Philadelphia
North american, which, in speaking OF
the "Chna War;" says:
We are not, as our readers know, much al
dcted TO praising Mr. Buchanans Adminstra- =
ton. either in it's foreigner domestic policy,
but it is due to candor and consistency to say
that the course thus far pursued by the Prasi-
dent in relation to CHM and the remote east,
is beyond al! exception.

The P.ulding (Miss.l Narion, the
l.ree.. and most extensive circulated
Democratic journal in the State OF Miss
issippi, takes exceptions to resolutions
passed by the Alabams State Conven-
ton. 1t says:
1--WE shall publish these resolutions,
or their substaIce,as soon az VIC can Cd
tam them in an authentic form. II they
are the same 60 were reported from the
&C committee OH resolutions, they demand
a platform and candidate from the
Charleston Convention, pledged to Con-
g,essional intervention for the protec-
ton OF slavery..in the territories, failing
to obtain which, their delegates are re-
ouIred to withdraw from the body. Ii
they 90 there with this understanding,
they may as we'll stay at home and not
90 at all, and if the Convention is to
take course prescribed,i it may as we'll not
meet, because its candidate will be DOOM
cd to inevitable defeat.
There is ve'y great difference be-
tw cen the abstract assertion OF great
principle, and contending for It's practl-
cal exercise without regard TO time or
circumstance. We thonld like for any
member OF the Montgomery Convention
or any body else TO inform the world,
that, suppo ing their demand shall be
complied with by the Charleston Con
vention, and the candidate nominated
be elected to tho presidency, into what
foot OF territory where slaves does not
already exist would it be thereby car
RED. In other words, what. practical
good to the South would result from the
adoption of their programme: Noue
whatever. It's only effect would be to
defeat the Democratic candidate tor the
presidency by the raising OF an imprac,-
ical and useless issue. The government
would pass into the hands OF. the Black
Republicans, and the folly on the part
of the South by which that event was
brought about, would disinclinc thous-
ands to resist Black Republican gov
eminent, who, under different clrcnm-
stances, would have been willing to see
the Union dissolved, rather than north
ern sectionalist should take his seat In
the presidential chair. Let an unrea-
| sonable and extreme course on the part
Of the South lead to the defeat of the
| Charleston nominee and the election of
Seward, or any party, and nothing Is
more certain than that all talk of dissolv-
ing the Union rather than submit to a
Black Republican administration,will be-
come mere sound and fury, signilying
nothing A Union party will be found
here in the South that will sweep the
country as it did in lS5o-'5l, and the
South be left further then ever from be-
ing able to maintain her equality when
assailed IN the Union, or her independ-
ence ont of it,"

Republicans Coming to their Senses.

Republican papers have said all sorts
of hard things about the manner In
which Gov. Wise and the Nirginians
treated the friends and relatives of the
condemned insurrectionists but in no
instance did they speak the truth. A
little travel, and little common homes
ty, is all that is necessary to convict
those Republican editors and letter wri-
tiers of the most wanton and outrageous
SANDERS against the Virglnians. Read,
read
The Salem CO., Republican, an ultra
Black Republican paper, in an article
upon the arrival and burial Of the body
of Coppic, at that place, and speaking
of the efforts made by his friends to
have him pardoned, says:
"As it was, the Governor did evry
thing that he could do to prevail on the
Legislature to spare Coppic, and quite a
number Of the Senate were inclined for
a time to do so, but in the House, some
considerable unwillingness was manifet-
&c, and general disposition expressed
to let things take their own course
But Notwithstanding, had it not been
tor an unfortunate letter to Mrs. Brown,
having Copies signature, which made
its appearance, most inopportunely, in
which the writer spoke of the Nirgini-
ans as enemies &c, he might, for all,
have had bis sentence, il not committed,
at least respiteI for thirty days,in which
time his pardon, most likely, could have
been procured. But when that was read,
being published in N. Y. Tribune, there
seemed to be no longer any hope. 1t is,
however, due to Gov. Wise and several
of the officers about Charicstown and
Richmond, both civil and military, to
say, that those above named friends of
Coppc, spoke of them in very high
terms OF praise-stating that they could
not have been better or more gentleman
" treated by anybody than they were
by them"
Again
Prof. Monroe, of Obeilin, in his fam
ersl sermon on Copeland, sad, the peo-
pie OF the North were m!sinformed in
relation to the citizens Of Virginia
they were as generous and loyal, and as
hospitable people as be ever became
acquainted with.

The bag in question was handed up,

ANY one can most easily discern the

The Republican National Convention.

The nominating Convention called bv
the Republican National Committee al
Chicago, for abe 18th Of June, does not
appear to be satisfactory, as to time and
place, to many Of the newspaper organs
Of that party. Various reasons are
urged in behalf of change. especially
in the time; but it is probable that one
argument outweighs all the Others in
potency. They are afraid of the ghost
of the old Wings. The remains of the
Wing and American parties arc being
gathered up with some care, and arc to
be used as third party in the Presiden-
tlal campaign. To the utter dismay of
the Republicans, the managers OF this
third party propose to hold nominating
convention in May, full month before
the time fixed for the Republican Con-
vention at Chicago, and thus, as the
phrase goes, take the wind out Of the
sails" Of the great sectional party Of the
North. We shall see whether the latter
will be frightened into change of time
to save themselves from the impending
calamity.-N y Jour. Of Com. .
