1t is apparent that no third party can
arise this year which will compare at all
with the Fillmore party of 1856. This third
party has become in great measure absorb

Is ,ate to estimate that the Republican party

II !, wal known that Mr.. Everett oonsented to
.taud as q candidate for the Vice Presidency only
NJ the urgent solicitation Of lis most influential
nersonal friends 10 ssrious parts of the country.
But when he consented, il was 10 the belief that
his name would be used 10 good faith, and that
those who had nominated the ticket, to which his
talents and reputation lent SO much of prestige
aud importance would honestly and earnestly sup
port it. This belief is now seen to have been mis-
taken; and we cannot see how any high-minded man
Cas consent to occupy for a moment the position
into which Mr.. Everett has been thrust by the ac-
hon not envy Of the President of the late Baltimore
Convention, but Of his colleagues in the State of
New-York and elsewhere. To be a candidate Tor
The Nice-Presidency is an honorable distinction,
even though the man on whom it is conferred might
justly have aspired 10 still higher place; but to
be nominated merely as means OF more con-
venieny selling out the voters OF your party to the
leaders and traders of hostile organization, is de-
grading aud discreditabe. We should not be sur
prised were Mr.. Everett to revolt at the insulting
use which is thus made Of him. He certainly owes
it to bis own reputation to make an emphatic and
effective protest against it.

spectacle motive for advocating the claims of a

tie name of Gen. George p. Morris as the right
man for the Breckenridge Congressional nolniOa-
zion in the IXth District We certainly had no idea
except to pay a merited compliment to a brother
journalist and an honorable politician. The Times,
however, alleges that We proposed Gen. Morris
only because we believed him to be the easiest man
In the District to beat. AS to this, Gen. Morris,
would not prove weak, but comparatively strong
candidate. We certainly thilk there are many
other prominent of bis party, as, for instance
Dir. b. NJ. Whitlock Mr.. T.. Croswel, MIR. b.
Brsadreth, or Mr.. W. w. Woodwork, who are as
far inferior to Gen. Morris in personal popularity
as they are in literary distinction. We remember

II is said that President Fillmore is about to ad-
dress the People in behalf of Messrs. Bell and
Everett. But what use will be served BY the ex-
Presidents eloquence, so long as lot of trading
politiciaps prevent the nomination of Bell and
Everett electors, in order to sell the Bell men ont
70 Dean Richmond aud Peter Cagger! Perhaps,
however, Mr.. Fillmore may denOunce as 1t de-
serves the complicated scheme by which the Bel
party of New-Yo,k is 10 be employed IN the base
work Of making joe Lane President. That he
should lend himself to such scheme is as I'M
possible as that he should he found cOuuseliog ms
