The Chicago Nominees.

The first surprise at the nomination OIL
Messrs. Lincoln and Hanllin being over
the opposition to the Democracy is becom-
inc convinced that the selection made was
most iudicious. A gentleman just mr.
rived from Washington heard Mr.. Douglas
saw that the nomination of Lincoln was
the strongest that the Chicago Convention
conid have made. Mr.. Douglas opinion
ON this subject is worth something, for no
one knows Lincolns ability and strength
better than he does. ,,
On one important point, the Tariff, Mr..
Lincoln has a record that will tell IN nus
favor in Pennsylvania. Here, after ALL
the Tariff is the vital question. All par
ties are for the Union and the Const'tu-
ton. so that there can he no dispute about
them. But all parties are not for protec-
ton to American industry. The Demo
cratic party ignores it, and if they ever get
n candidate or platform, neither dare say
ANYTHING in favor of protection MT. pen
haS been tariff man, but he has no plat
form, and rs he relies chiefly on Southern
States for support. he will have to conform
IN n considerable extent to Southern poti-
cv, which favcrs free trade. Mr.. Lincoln
i: a Tariff man and stands on Tarin
platform. This circumstance will helE
him greatly among the miners and manu-
fncturcrs of Observation-Disclosures

TIE following is the conclusion OF an
article in the st. Louis Democrat We
like to hear man talk in this way. The
personal predictions of good and true
man are never allowed to stand in the
road, where principles are at stake!
We confess that we were not so purely
unselfsh as to rejoice at our own defeat IN
the person of Judge Bates; but as we 90
not carry our hearts in our sleeves LOT eN-
erv daw to peck at, we keep our teehngs
to ourselves. But our great desire now, Is
the election of Abraham Lincoln and HAN
nibal Hamlin and our great duty to LABOR
for their election. We regard the oele"t
of the National Democratic candidate Ss
essential to the peace, welfare, ana even
stability of the Confederacy, more
necially if that candidate be Stephen A.
Iono,I3s. and the strong probability that
Don9las or any other doughface or slavery
nronap1,ndist will be defeated is not calcu-
| lated TO dampen our ardor or relax our
Eexertions. We long to see the anthor
of the repeal of the Missouri ComPro-
misc gather the full crop of retrloutlon
for that crime; and all his aiders anu
abettors, drain the cup of humlllat'on an"
defeat to the bitter Giregs. We are ldent'-
/ fed with united and powerful party,
whose platform is a declaration q inc
noblest political principles ever enur clNte q
whose lofty standard is emblazoued with
the glorious notices, Freedom, Union
States Rights The enemy, on tn? con-
trary, are divided, discordant and osllger-
ent. The irrepressible conflict RACES ~
tbeir ranks. Demoralized and anarchical
os they are, their overthrow is inevitable
In few months the world shall cease to
witness the strange spectacle of the best
form of government that has ever existed ,
nrostiLuted to the basest ends, and employ
ing for the accomplishment of these emu
the basest means.

Mr.. EVERETT has rarely been seen in
public since those Baltimore men who are
said to march solely to the music of .stbc
Union made him the magnanimous offer
of the second fiddle. Long ago. it is true
he proclaimed his retirement from political
life, but it was supposed that this long and
stunning knock at the door of his hermit
tage would make him falter in his laudnbIe
determination. His friends say otherwise.
and it is whispered that he is now enga.
ged in celebrating a letter of decliuation.

And the names of James R. Johnson and
a Mr.. S niley, the former of whom worked
90 ieweller for Alex. Paxton and is now
CITY Collector at Davenport, and the latter
of whom worked as Timer with George
w. Johnson and is now in the same ouSi-
ness and doing we'll.
We listened to great deal that most all
these gentlemen had to say about the "dVan-
tages of the country roundabout Davenport
and we must confess that the thrift which
had waited upon the exertions OF most Oh
them was pretty good evidence that they
had sufficient reason to speak well Oh tue
country. We believe that q man can do
well in Iowa-or at least that portion ol
# ve visited-but he can't do it, in our
opiniou. unless he could do the same thing
here Mt home. We do not see that at TINS
time there is any more of chance LOT d
man ont there, unless he has money, than
| tberc Is here. and we do not believe there
| &c If he has four or FIVE thousand DOL
lars. however, he can invest 1t adVanta-
geously in good lands; under partial cu,''-
vat;on-land which has been held 'hlgher
than its value, heretofore, and is now for
sale at less than what it is worth, on &C
connt of the general smash in 1857 ana
tho failure of the crops ever since. After
all its very much, if not altogether, in the
kind of people who go to new country
A man of resolution, economy and hard
sense, who enjoys good health, will make
head most anywhere, and the same
RIGID privation of many of the little extras
of life and the same unwearied look out
for the "main chance" will make him well
off in the city of Wheeling just as quick
as it will in the city of Davenport.
The great draw back that we saw to
the country is the want of fuel and
the great variability in the climate II
blows hot and cold almost simultaneously
ont there, and the difficulty is that there
is too much cold The winter commence;
too early and lasts too long. 1t is well
however, that one country cannot obtain
all the advantages in the world, fog W.
could MT help thinking that if the portion
IF Iowa we visited, had the timber, IN
coal, the water and the climate OF tn
Panhandle here, and the adjacent countr
! on both sides of us, the other parts OF tn

A Significant sign of the Times

The most significant sign of the times
that has yet arrested our attention, as ono
journal, II viii be remembered, supported
Mr.. Fillmore, in 1856, with great zeal and
ability, and also countenanced the Utica
movement, by which the Republicans were
half defeated in New York, through the
Brooks Balance of Power party, last fall.
1t now accepts the present position and
platform of the Republican party, as in en-
tire accordance with its political views,
and, to use its own language, gladly en-
braces the certain opportunity thus afford
ed, of expelling forever the corrupt DEM
ocratic party from power. We also notice
that the Buffalo Express puts forth an APP
parently authorised statement, to the effect
that Mr. Fillmore gives the Chicago nomi-
nation his hearty support, and will, in all
probability, take the stump in their behalf.
The Americans of Maryland, who SO GAL
lantly threw her eight electoral votes for
Mr.. Fillmore, in 1856, will, we have no
doubt. receive this intelligence with no
little interest, whether they will approve
Mr.. Fillmore's present course and that of
his organ, or not.

WE suppose that our readers have no
ticed how lugubriously some Democratic
papers, like the Wheeling Union, affect to
regard the injustice done Mr.. Seward at
the Chicago Convention, and how pro-
found, Just now, is their reverence for his
distinguished ability. One would think
that their hearts were going to break, out
of sincere sympathy for his defeat. They
have for moths, and some OF them ior
wears. branded him as a traitor and Ia
matte, and as virtual, thong h secret any
They regarded every man who pressed his
clnims to the post of Republican candidate
as foe to the public good.
But suddenly new light has broken upon
their vision. They deem Mr.. Seward a
much-abused man. They think that the
Republican party have been guilty of a
heinous offence in neglecting to nominate
him. They appear about as much grieved
as the Douglas men did at the result of the
Charleston Convention. We fear that
they will not soon recover from their grief.
1t is very evident that they wished Mr..
Seward to be nominated, because they
thought that there was some hope of de-
featiug him. The feigned contempt with
which they speak of Lincoln, and the
mock sympathy with which they now laud
Seward, are alike due to their conviction
that a more difficult combat than they
hoped for is before them They know
that Lincoln is sure to carry certain States,
which, in their judgement, Seward must
have lost They feel that their distracted,
disorganized, disheartened party cannot
stand up against the hosts that are rally
ing from ocean to ocean in support of the
Republican nominees. This is the meaning
of their hypocritical praise of Mr.. Sew
ard, and of their sincere dissatisfaction
with the work of the Chicago Convention.
Will not the Democrats soon declare Con-
ventions TO be humbugs? This one ut
Chicago does not please them. Neither
did the one at Charleston. Will that one
