CARR, Of the Midland Sentinel, albeit
he is a black republican ed,tog, has no
more Of the cant style Of lis fellow labor
ers, than he's the staunohest democrat in
the Valley. What he thinks, he has a
way OF stating plainly and pertinently, and
lac evidently does so without fear OF
favor. The following, from his last issue,
is sensible, too sensible, by far to meet
the views of ono tenth Of Che republicans

tives of the Republican party meet in

ard bearer ioy the coming Presidential
campaign. This is mission of vast inn
portance, as itcarrieswith it'conscGpences
that can scarcely be estimated. The very
existence Of the party, aye, the very life
of the great principles it yindicates de-.
ponds upon the results of this Convention
lf the right men are selected and the
right platform adopted, all ms, be well;
but should the WRONG men and platform
be chosen, defeat and aunihihtion are
inevitable, for the Republican party can
not outliye another general defeat
As 20 the particular men 70 be chosen
we will here say nothing; but as TO the
platform it may not be out Of place TO say
what we regard as the most iii and safest
one 20 adopt. 1t must ~be free from
fanaticism, Of the Michigan atyipo--that
is, such fauotcism rs has characterized
The tone of very many OF the Republican
journals of this state. Ii must not damn,
as is done in this State, every one who
does not believe every thing belonging
to democracy or slavery in any way how
ever remote, to be piratical and villain
ous and positively refuse any Of their as
sistancc. 1t must not favor the abolish
mcnt Of Slavery whore tnow exists, con-
trary to tho Constitution. 1t must not
oppose, in unqualified terms the aoQuisi-
ton of Cuba, or Mexico, because the ma
jority Of the American people favor this
project. IL must not make a tariff the
issue, or else calculate on the expulsion
of every member Of the party with Dem
ocratic antcccdents.
And thus having said what it should
not do, we pass to what it should 1t
should affirm the Constitution and the
sovereign rights of all the States, hostii-
ty to the African slave trade and to the
Of Slavery over territory now
free; affirm the principles Of River and
Harbor improvements, and the free dis

poor.

THE cIIARLnsroN CONVENTION.

After long, bitter and exciting scs-
sion, the Democratic National Convon
ton, which assembled at Charleston on
the Odd ult., adjourned on the 81 inst,
without having effected nomination, to
meet again at Baltimore on the 18th of
June next. Whatever may be the opin-
ion Of others in regard to the effect Of
this action of the Convention, we do not
entertain a doubt that it will result
greatly to tho advantage Of the Demo.
cratic party in the coming Presidential
canvass. Delegates from all directions,
and representing the widest range Of SEN
timent, have met and exchanged opin-
ions freely, fully and manfully. They
failed to come to an understanding, and,
in the excitement, few Of the extremists
"sloughcd off; but from the reading of
the last days proceedings Of the Scccs-
sionists' Convention it is quite apparent
that they arc not altogether satisfied with
their position, while from the reports re-
ceiyed from Alabama, Georgia, and other
Southern States, it is further apparent
that they are not sustained at home to
the extent which their fast and furious
action would seem to indicate.
Let tho Democratic masses of the sew
erAl States, South and North, take into
consideration the action Of their dele
gates, aud make known their sentiments,
and when the Convention again assem-
bles there will be no trouble in coming
to an understanding. If it is true that
the Southern Democracy hold to the en-
IRENE doctrines advocated by Mr. Yancy
of Alabama, and those of his ilk, and
that the ultimatum presented by him is
the point at which they set their stakes,
then must the Great National Democratic
Party be inevitably broken up, as was
the old Wing Party, and the Almighty
Niger reign supreme. to the delight of
frc-eaters, and abolitionists, and faction
lists, and bad men Of all sections. We
have no fear that such will be the result,
but, in our opinion, the time has come
when Northern Democrats should fully
understand at what point they propose to
bring up, and having taken their posi-
ton, to stand by it to tho last.
