Oh Mr.. Bell! Mr.. BeII!! Mr.. BelIlll

The Hon. John Bell, in his speech to the serena
ders in Philadelphia said, 81 regard the majority Of
the Republican party as derOted to this Convention
and this Union" This was pretty strong bid for
the Chicago nomination. Bnt it failed That Con-
ventiOn, though it no doubt felt grateful for the
compliment bestowed by Mr. Bell thought it to be its
duty to nominate some one for President who had
been actively engaged in the Republican cause, and
MOI merely one like Mr.. Bell, who sympathized with
it.
The Baltimore Clipper, which was the first paper,
We believe, to suggest the formation of the great
national, Constitutional Union party" and which
has the namesof John Bell and Edward Everett fly
Ing at its masthead, earnestly urged the Chicago
Convention in its issue of the 10th, to take up Mr..
Bell and Mr. Everett 1t said
I'VE do not see why rational hope and expec-
ntion may not be entertained, that intelligent
and patriotic Convention at Chicago may not be as
well content to adopt the nomination of John Bell
and Edward Everett as they would be with any 9TH
ers whose names may be before their Convention
Ihe mere fact of the Baltimore Convention being of
prior date surely ought not to prevent concurrence,
were the cause the same in principle. If the cause
O not the same in principle could not nationally
expect concurrence in the nomination at all.

~ Messrs. BALDWIN 4 DODGE, will in
the course of few weeks, start their first

with Messrs. PEGsAx h WARNER, have made
extensive arrangements for doing general

and with the advantage they have in the dis.
tanos "by the North Platte Route" they
can freight Ut better rates than those start
ing farther South. They are prepared to
take out goods and machinery in short time
in any quantity. Their first train consist.
ing Of 20 teams, will be loaded mostly with
goods, -four and provisions, for the estab.

Since December LIST, they have manufac.ur-
cd at their City Mills, in this city, 10000
