WASHINGTON, Feb. 9th. 1855

WASHINGTON, Feb. 9th. lSss.
The time for the meeting Of the
Democratic nominating convention
being fixed on June 5th makes il
two weeks before the Republican
convention meets This date was
not agreed upon without a struggle,
tor there is an element in the par
ty, which though small and rapid
ly diminishing, still believes in
waiting for the Republicans to
make the issue. The majority of
the party however think that the
issue has already been fully set
forth by the Presidents message
to Congress and that no other plat
form is needed TO make the fight
on.
This is the aggressive element,
those who carry the elections; aud
the present aggressive condition
OF the party will rouse their enthu-
siasm TO an unusual pitch, win make
them think Of the many national
victories won by the party 10 ante
bellum days. The selection Of the
great metropolis ofthe Southwest,
St. Louis, as the place of meeting
was the very best that could have
been made.
The further the Government
printing Office investigation goes
the better it shows for the demo-
cratic managementof Mr.. Benedict.
lie has saved the Government al
ready over 100000 and at the
same time done more work than
has ever been done in the same
length Of time in the history Of the
office.
Quite a number ofrepubIican pa
pers have been foolish enough to
charge Pension Commissioner
Black with having shown favorit-
ism in allowing the amounts Of
pensions to soldiers living in dem.
ocratic states. A table has been
issued by the Pension Office, show
ing the average pension paid each
soldier in each State and Territory
II shows that the largest averag,
amounts are paid to soldiers who
are residents of the States and ter
ritories which have always giver
republican maiorities. Bring il
another republican caaard.
The worst squelched man IN th
House is Mr Boutelle. of Maine
the gentleman who recently 60
rampant over the proposition to re
turn the captured Confederate bat
lie flags to their original owner.
and who wanted the Secretary O
War to furnish the House with
detailed statement ofevervthing b
knew about these flags. Tha
statement has reached the Hous,
That is what squelcbed Boutell,
contained more information tina
he wanted. 1t showed that th
democratic administration bad tai
en- much better care Of the FLAG
than the republicans ever did, an
further that not a confederate fla
with one exception, and that w
loaned to be returned, had ev,
left the possession Of the War D
partmeut under this administr
ton.
The negotiation Of the Fisher
treaty would alone Of itself be
sufficient reason for the people
keep the Government in the ban
Of the democratic party. The So
iect covered by the treaty has be
constant source OF worry to Il
country for more than a hundr,
years, and many attempts ha
been made at settlement, but no
so favorable to this country as |
present treaty.
