The Coastitution publishes and compliments the late speech of Mr. Benjamin in the Senate, upon the principles and duty of the Democratic party. The Intelligencer, under the impression that Messrs. Bell and Fuller were the nominees of the Nationa Union Convention at Baltimore, says : “ta a word, it only remains for us to say at Present (reserving for to-morrow a more formal consideration of the anbject) that in our judgment it will be conceded by candid men throu, ot the land that these are nominations eminently “fit to be made,” and worthy to ne endorsed by Conservative citizens of all classes and denomina- tious. Would it not be a glorious thiag for the peace and unity and prosperity of eur whole Country if each and all of the other parties, dis- carding their several dissensions and predilec- tions, could unite upon them in a spirit of com- sive patriotism, and thus give us once more a thrice happy era of good feeling ? ana sa you, geatlemen, delegates of Chicago, Richimon tad Baltimore? Can you do better?’ ; —_—— +e , WASHINGTON NEWS AND GUSSIP, —.—___ Tas Nomixations.—Washington was taken al aback yesterday afternoon by the announcement, Per telegraph, that the Constitutional Union Con- vention had actually nominated John Bell and Edward Everett, who, though certainly two of the most respectable gentlemen of the land, were universally voted unable to bring to the aid of their cause a single vote outside of their strictest party organization. Their political friends here, ‘with one accord, however much they esteemed and admired them petsonally, were certainly chagrined by their nomination, beyond expres- sion. The truth is, the Convention in making those nominations have thrown away their only ctance of success, which was to run their nomi- nees Into the Homse of Representatives. It ts utterly impossible that they can carry a vote in any slaveholding State beyond their narrowest party strength; and they can by no means carry tnat if the Democracy run two tickets in them, as One or the other ticketsupported by the Democracy will surely swallow up much of their (c. U.) party. In the North they will fail under any circum. stances to win a single electoral vote, though they may receive the vetes of tens of thousands there who would have voted for the Democratic party had their party made no nominations. We do not see how they can in any manner weaken ‘the Republican party. Had Houston or McLean beep nominated, the action of the Convention might have seriously affected the result of the Presidential election in November; but they chose, literally, to throw away their game. Even in the event of the failure of the current efforts to bring the Charleston Convention together again at Baltimore, upon which, we believe, depends the question whether there will be two Demo- cratic tickets in the field in nearly every northern ‘State in the Union, we have no idea that Messrs. Bell and Everett can even get, in the race, within sight of the House of Representatives. ei Face tue Music.—Yesterday we incidentally took occasion to show the necessity fora ffir and square contest upon principles, in the approach- ing Presidential election. That {s to say, the im- Possibility of either party’s playing over again, with success, the threadbare game of all of then.; the game of having one set of principles to be urged in one section of the Union, and another set to be urged elsewhere. Fortunately, the determi- pation of the South at Charleston, in the mainte- nance of her rights under the Constitution, has made it impossible that there can hereafter be any two Democratic-party constructions of the posi- tion of the party on the leading issue of the times Jobn Brown's raid, too, has as fortunately made it equally imperative that the Republican party shall face their own music, standing fairly and squarely on the doctrine of irrepressible conflict- ism. We quote below, from the Philadelphia Evening Journal, briefly-expressed Views on this subject, which are pertinent, indeed, to the times. ““Now, we have one piece of advice to give the “Repu ins,” in view of the existing condition of parties and politics.
