NEW YORK.
From The Times Conservative Republican,
The basis thus presented is sufficiently broad to
meet the expectations OF Unon-lovipg men every
whero. North and South may meet without sur
eminent advantages to both. And though the
delegates who rally around these propositions will
unquestionably be selected from the ranks OF
those "who sustain the administration in main
tanning unbroken the Union Of the States under
the Constitution" there is nothing in them which
tho Union party, a party, has not at one time
or another distinctly committed itself.
From The Tribune Radeall
Messrs. Randall& Co. have not the slenderest

henceforth against that party-to deory its prin-
oiples and oppose it's candidates.. They hope, we
Mr.. johnson and run him for next President, but
that party will see him and them in heaven first.
It has not the least notion of running man for
President who is recently from our ranks.it will
run John Tyler in IA. There is no nee in min
cling matters; Messrs. Randall g. Co. are going
over to the Democratic party; they arc already
glibly mouthing it's catchwords; they are making
good speed to the loyal embrace of Belmont, Cly-
NOR, G. B. Pendleton, Vallandigham Co., but
the copperheads are not coming to them. Unless
the law of gravitation is reversed, they must

reaching their point of fusion.
From the World, Democrat.l
While the Convention seemed to be the propo-
sition Of few politicians, we looked upon it with
for the people to suppose that they will come,
like dogs, to any politician who chooses to whistle.
But the reception which has been given to this
call, shows that i'll has exactly hit the present tenn
per Of the public mind-that it has fallen, like
spark, upon dry combuutibles which were await

In this view Of it we approve the movement, and
gladly herald it as significant indication, from
the conservatives OF the North, Of their determi-
nation to uphold and support the President in his
and the rights of the South under the Constitu-

From the Advertiser. Montgomery, Ala.l
The principles upon which the new party is to

averting the calamities OF Radical domination.
The South has never desired any more acceptable
platform than "the Union OF the States which our
fathers established" !" and which the new party
propose to restore, keeping in view the fact that
the right OF secession has been permanently set

1t ia Of the utmost Importance that those who

at the Court House last evening on the above sub

Of Mr.. UPHAA's School, and will doubtless meet

upon the minds Of the people Of our thriving and
prosperous town, the necessity Of educating the
rising generation, and the impossibty OF doing SC
without School House. 1t will be observed that
he lectured in the Court House, after having pro
nounced the School House unfit for practical pur
poses. And he was right in so speaking and doing

LOCATE 1T HERE.-The Trustees of the Deaf

cation for that institution. The foothills above
Orovie, and commanding fine view of the val

Grating atmosphere. cool and living water, good
and productive soil-natural advantages that. un.
der proper direction would rear institution that
would cause the deaf to hear, the dumb to speak,
and the blind to see, if nature, aided by human
care and philanthropy, could bestow these blessings
upon this class Of unfortunates. Let the Trustees
call and examine the advantages that Butte county
offers. We have marble quarres to furnish building
material, and coal mines for fuel. We shall not
put up the building and improve the grounds sur
rounding it, charging nothing therefor. but offer
the Trustees better advantages than same other To-
caties, and equal liberality.
