Col. Forney's Compliments

The virtuous Editor of the Press, ad-
vertises humber of leading Democratic
news papers, whose Editors hold office
under the National Government, which he
seems to think is an awful state of affairs.
He says they receive salary of from
$1,000 to $4,000 each, and for the life of
us we can see nothing wrong in this; un-
less it is because they will not travel under
his lash.
One thing we do know that their sal
aries are not as eapU'siUe as that attach
ed to the Clerkship Of the Black Republi-
can House of Representatives which Office,
by the by, is also held by an Editor of a
newspaper.
If he had given us the amount of his
salary, we could then see who was re.
ceiving the largest.
If it is disgrace or crime to hold an of
flee under the national Government, VIZ
are surprised that Col. Forney has beer
trying all his lifetime to get one-whicl
he has obtained, and obtained it in til,
same way that Benelict .4rnoM received
the British gold-by treason and treach

The Continental,

Recently on visiting Philadelphia through
the politeness of Col. STEVENS, the gen.
tlemanly proprietor of this model Amcri-
can Hotel, we were shown through every
apartment of the Continental, and had
full view of the structure in all its ramifi-
cations and its vast concerns. Located on
the corners of Chestnut and North Streets
centrally in the City and in the centre
of fashionable life,-the House is one of
the largest of the kind in the world, finish
ed, furnished and conducted in the first
style, with all the immaginable convent
encies for the comfort of its guests We
have neither time or space to give min
ute description of this magnificent struc-
ture, which would doubtless deeply interest

Responses.

On the outside of our paper we give some
answers sent to Haldeman and his bogus
Convention which assembled in Harrisburg
on the Goth of July. 1t was the smallest
kind of q tizzle, admittedly SO even by
themselves, and deservedly so by the voice
of all sound democrats. 1t was condemned
in advance by all the Breckenridge papers,
and by all the Douglas papers not in the
interest of Lincoln and the Black Repub-
licans.
Asa specimen We annex the following
from the Pitsb0g Post, one of the most
sincere Douglas papers in the State; and
we could fill our columns with extracts
equally pungcnt from similar sources
Those Douglas Democrats who are not yet
prepared to follow Forney and Hickman
into the Republican camp, condemn Hal
deman and his Convention; what shall
we say to those who give to the movement
aid and comfort Time will unmask them.
The Past says:
This body meets to-day at Harrisburg.
1t will be but slimly attended. We know
of no Democrat from this part of the
State who is going to attend it. The in
evitable Haldeman, so fresh in his zeal
for Douglas, so recent in his consortations
with Mr.. Douglas btterest enemies, is
now working to place the Douglas De-
mocracy in the position OF boilers from the
State organization. He will not succeed
The power of the State Committee is
sufficient to secure the Democratic vote
of the State to the nominees Of the Nation
al organization. When the State Com
m,ttee refuse this-whcn the State Com
mittee refuse to sustain the National Or
ganization, and depart from the spirit Of
the resolution Of the Reading Convention
to do this-then the friends of Douglas
will be justified in maintaining the organ
ization of the party and doing all in their
power to secure the election of regular
nominees.
Mr.. Haldeman is too young a general
10 head political revolution in the Dem
ocratic party of Pennsylvania, lie is too
new Douglas man to bear the banner of
the peoples chieftain. We are for uni
ted Democracy in Pennsylvania as long
as there is any hope that such result
can be obtained. We wish to maintain
the integrity of our State organization
and also to be loyal to that of the National
Democracy. Such body as that which
is called at Harrisburg to-day, must be
damaging to the interests of both

Letter From senator Fitzpatrick.
- WETuMpKA July IL, 1860.

Hon. J. L. NJ. CURRY-DEAR SIR
Your favor of the 9Th instant has just been
received. You say that "there is q good
deal of speculation as to my preferences
for the candidates now before the country
for the Presidency and Vice Presidency"
and that you "would be glad, if not in.
consistent with my feelings, that 1 would
indicate them"
The Office of Vice President is high
position, and one nomination for which,
if tcndered me by united Democracy up
on proper platform, am frank to say,
| would not have declined.
| could not accept the nomination
with Mr.. Douglas, for the reasons set forth
in my letter of derlension, and for others,
which said in that letter, would not
then impose l differ entirely with him on
the territorial question, as set forth in my
letter to Mr.. IIudgins last fall, and as in
dicatcd by my vote on the Senate resolu'
tions commonly called the ''Davis resolu-
tions," which passed the Senate at the
last session Of Congress.
Differing as widely as we do upon the
question of popular or squatler-sovereign-
ty, and the protection of slave property in
the Territories; | could not have accept.
ed the noniaation with Mr., Douglas on
the platform presented, without subjecting
myself to the imputaton of having aban.
doned well-matured opinions for the hope
Of obtaining power and place.
| would have supposed that these opin.
ions publicly expressed, and my declcn
sion of the nomination for the Vice Presi-
doncy, would have been a sufficient guar
antee that in selecting from the candi-
dates [ would at least vote for those whose
political sentiments conform most nearly to
my own. have always been a Demo-
crat, and adhered with fidelity to the prin-
+ciplcs and usages of the party. The di-
visions and disruptions of the Convention
at Baltimore should be, and | feel assured
are, deplored and regretted by all Demo
Gratis, and by none am sure, more than
myself.
According in sentiment with the plat
form upon which Breckenridge and Lane
have been nominated, shall as matter
of course yield them my support. Very
respectfully, your ob't scryt,,
Ben. FITZPATRICK.
