Tho stupid absurdity Of the professed Union
savers, who met at Baltimore the other day to
nominate 4 candidate for President, and anotl-
er for Vico President, upon single plank
the Constitution and the Union-will be appa-
rcnt to the du1lcst Ounce, when he remembers
that every man in this country, savo only a few
ultra Abolitiouists Of the North aud handful
Of intense fanatics in the South, can endorse
tic platform which the BOBBY Brookeses laid
down; because nil political parties in the
United States are loud in their deyotions 10
the Constitution AID tho onion, and the vaunts
tile ultraists Of either extreme in this matter,
pass for just as much US the outcry of the Ma
tioual Constitutional Union Old Line r hies and
Know Nothings, who ventilated their patriotism
at Baltimore. Whenever the Republicans de-
clare their sentiments they will exalt the Con-
stitution and the Union. The seccders from
the Charleston Convention will do the same
thing; and the Doug1asites will follow the
example. Here, thon, we shall have four par
ties in tie field, with tho Constitution and the
Union as tue basis Of each Wherein the Bal
timoreans are entitled to any preferences over
either, We hare not the wit to see. That in
shirking the responsibility Of declaring them
selves upon the living issues Of the day, they
exhibit degree Of cowardice which breeds
distrust Of tile purity Of their intentions, all

Hits from the Louisville journal,

During the three years Of Mr. Buehanan's ad-
miuissration, the Department of State has
issued about eighteen thousand passports to
citizens desiring 10 travel IN foreign parts
Lonisri|< Dtmocrat.
We are no, in the least surprised that great
many citizens hive desired 10 travel "turiug
the three years Of Dir. Buchanan's Adu,iui,t,..
tion." The only wonder is that anybody has
desired to stay ut home.
B- One Of our New England contemporaries,
