The Davis Resolutions.

The Express takes it for granted that we
will not support the Charleston nominee if it
does not happen to be Judge Douglas; and
bases its opinion upon the declaration we
have made that the adoption of the Davis
Resolutions. in the late Senatorial Caucus,
by the Charleston Convention, will be equiv
alent to the defeat of the Democratic party
in the coming Presidential campaign. 1t
strikes us that this is not exactly a logical
deduction, but if this kind of reasoning is
satisfactory to the Express, we shall not stop
to quarrel with it; for if that sheet draws
a conclusion like this from such premises eX
planation, denial or anything else would be
useless, because it would only be furnishing
additional premises for like illogical conelu-
sions There is no getting along with per
sons addicted to this mode of reasoning for
they have a system of their own, which de-
fes all the known laws of ratiocnation,
whether of the ancient or the modern schools.
But, so far as the declaration is concerned,
that the adoption of slave code platform
10y the Charleston Convention will defeat the
Democratic party-we think it worth while
to reiterate it with emphasis There can be
no other result. Why, the very States in the
North whose Senators voted for the Davis
| Resolutions, have in their State Conventions
and through the various modes of expressing
their opinions, repudiated the doctrines con
tained in them. 1t is very questionable
whether these Senators can ever be returned
again. Senator Fitch, of Indiana, got up in
the Senate to denounce the views of Judge
Douglas, right upon the heels Of the action
of the Democratic State Convention of his
own State, endorsing those views IL toto and
eleeting Douglas delegates to the Charleston
Convention. He does not therefore repre-
sent his own Democratic constituency. Mich
f igan, with all the Cass Democrats Of that
State, are opposed to the Davis Resolutions.
Illinois spits upon them. Ohio disclaims
them. Wisconsin scorns them from beneath
her feet. So do an overwhelming majority
Of the Northern Democracy. How, in the
name of all common sense, then, can man,
nominated on such platform as the Davis
Resolutions, be elected to the Presidency?

Detroit Free Press that gentleman from the
