 EeA- Mr. Weed of the Albany Ecening Jour. nal, closes review of the defeat of Mir. Seward at Chicago, as follows:
 :" But we have dwelt longer than was intend ed upon the sembre side of picture which presents better features and brighter aspects. Neither Mir. Lincoln nor his immediate friends are in any way responsible for the injustice of l which we complain. His name was legitilnately presented, and his nomination was honorably se- cured. It was the only name upon which all the clements of opposition to Gov. Seward could have been united. And this is a fortunate cir constance, for it is the name of a true man, and his nomination was one fit to be made Dis appointment, however severe, does not release republicans from their obligations to the cause or the country. These obligations are superior to all merely personal considerations. We can l not afford, either by defection or inaction, to 1 leave the government in the hands of @ party that for eight years have outraged and violated all its principles and now stands exposed to the world utterly and alike tyrannical, pertidious l and inlbecile"
 | Who HAD THE MOST VOTES, DOUGLAS OR LIN COLIN 1.-The ingenuity of all the Douglas papers in the land is now exercised to it's utmost in the attempt to conceal the. fact that in the memora- ble campai gn in lS5S in Illinois, Lincoln receiv- ed more votes than Douglas did. l In 1858 the vote for Representatives was as follows:
 For Lincoln Representatives. ........ .124 ,23A For Douglas Representatives. ........ .l22 ,609 1 These figures tell their own story. They need no comment. True there were l, 1923 votes cast for Danite Representatives, but they were as much against Douglas as they were against Lin coin, and cannot be counted for either.
 RE-EIEcrioN OF TRuMBuI.-The Legislature of Illinois which will be chosen next fall, will be charged with the duty of electing United States Senator for the full term of six years.- With Lincoln in the field as Presidential can ddate the Republicans have strong faith thai they will be able to re-elect Senator Irumbul even with the disadvantage of Gerrymanderee districts against them. Six of the hold-ove Senators are Republicans, and seven Democrats
 gA- The fact that Mir. Lincoln is six feet fou inches in height, is fully conclusive that ths Republican standard will not be lowered" in his hands.
 Sas" X Bell and Everett meeting was held d New Haven on "Wednesday evening" About 800 persons were present. A grandson of Pat rick Henry made a speech, concluding with the declaration that "John Bell and Edward Ever cit will be the next President and Vice-Presi dent of the United States
 nsA- The Montgomery (Ala.) Cowet7eratio, thus gives the record of the leading secession delegates from the Charleston Convention from that State. It says:
 l No one can be deceived as to what are the objects of the Charleston Convention. Lister to what their men say:
 "I want the Cotton States precipitated into a revolution. -TEm. [. Yancey.
 "lf had the power, 1 would dissolve this Government in two minutes. "-J. '. Morgan.
 Let us break up this rotten, stinking and op pressve Government. '-Geoyye Gayle.
 Resistance! Resistance to death against the Government is what we want now. .'-Darid Hubbard.
 So we could go on throughout the whole cata logue, including "Tray, Blanche, and Sweet heart,' but these are enough to conylct this crowd of revolutionary intentions.
 nA- The Chicago Press and Tribune says l C If Mr ipon1p ic tod bo ry but little that is ornamental to the White House. The country must accept his sincerity his ability and his honesty, in the mould ill which they are are cast. He will not be able to make as polite bow as Frank Pierce, but he will not commence anew the agitation of the slavery question by recommending to Congress any Kansas Nebraska bills. He may not pre- side at the Presidential dinners with the ease and grace which distinguish the venerable public functonary,'' Mir. Buchanan, but he will not create the necessity for Covode Commit tee and the disgraceful revelations of Cornelius Wendell. He will take to the Presidential chair just the qualities which the country now demands to save it from impending destruction ability that no man can question, frmness that nothing can overbear, honesty that never has been impeached, and patriotism that never de. spairs.
 @~ John Covode, chairman of the famous Investigating committee. has written letter to his constituents emphaticaly declining renom- ination to Congress.
 Ex-PosrMAsrER FowLER.-The New York correspondent of Philadelphia Press writes:
 "A gentleman who arrived here yesterday, in the steamer Quaker City, from Havana, tells me that lle saw and had an agreeable interview with ex-Postmaster Fowler on the day the steamer left. They rode out together, and visited the American Consul, Mir. F. being 10th at first, to call upon that functionary, but finally yielding to the solicitation of his friend. Mir. Fowler was we'll, but lacked his usual vivacty. He made no allusions in reference to his future move ments."
 Brownlow, in his KnorriAe Whig, says that he saw Attorney General Black in Washington not long ago. We took good look at him, and we don't hesitate to say that in his counte- nance we could see mingled the virtues of the Wandering Jew and the Impenitent Thief upon the Cross And, if Attorney General Black is not villain, the Almighty does not write a legible hand, and this we are unwilling to con- cede"
 The Democratic platform has a nigger plank, and the Republican platform has nigger plank. The Conservative Union platform is the only one .xI II Il. sI
