Fad Logic.

The friends of Douglas assure US, that he
is the only statesman in the Democ rat ic ranks
who can be elected President next fall And
yet, all the Southern and Pacific States are
opposed to his nomination, and only two dem
ocratic States voted for him, as units in the
Charleston Convention. All the other States
which voted for him are abolition States
On what grounds then can it be contended
that Senator Douglas is the strongest man in
the democratic ranks?

Seward, though he did not expect 10 be again

The Republican Kominations---
What is Thought Of Them.

The conduct of the Republican Party in
this nomination is a remarkable Indication of
small intellect, growing smaller. They pass
over Seward, Chase and Banks. Who are
statesmen and able men, and they take up
fourth rate lecturer, who cannot speak good
grammer, and who, to raise the wind, deliv-
ers his hackneyed. illiterate compositions at
s20G piece. Our readers will recollect that
this peripatetic politician visited New York
two or three months ago on q fnancial tour
when, in return for the most unmitigated
trash, interlarded with coarse and clumsy

@ Union and harmony in the ranks of
the Democratic Party during the coming
campaign, is essential to Its existence. II
divided it will be defeated. Is it reasona-
bic to suppose that the nomination ofStephen
4. Douglas at Baltimore, would unite the
party and end the miserable dissensions which
now unfortunately exist in its ranks? certain
ly not. The Southern States are unanimous
" opposed to his nomination, and without
their electoral votes, the nominee of the Bal
timore Convention, whoever he may be, can
not possibly be elected. Senator Douglas is
therefore not the mau for the occasion. II
the Northern States should nominate him, is
it not likely that the Southern democracy
would say to us, Gentlemen of the North,
you have nominated Mr.. Douglas, although
we unanimously opposed him you can now
elect him; you denied US voice, hearing
in the Convention, and we will therefore have
no voice for your candidate in the electoral
College. You have nominated a man we re-
gard as the enemy of our dearest rights, and
we will not assist you in electing him? A
compromise should by all means be effected
at Baltimore. AS we love our country and
her free Institutions better than we do men,
therefore are we opposed to the nomination Of
Stephen A. Douglas. He cannot if nomina
ted receive the united support of the party.
