THE NEXT PR 'SIDENCY.
For ourselves, and speaking only for
ourselves, we earnestly hope, and most im
licitly believe, the real genuine, single
ed Democracy will never submit to
be led blindfold into the contest which is
impending, that they will neither "wave
all discussion." of major or minor points,
nor acquiesce in the mean and cowardly
policy of making no declaration of princi
pisfor the public eye;" much less, imi
tate such dastardly dissimulation. They
wil rally round the man. whoever be may
be, whose prcvious'couduct has demonstra
ted that be is indeed -*one and indivisible"
with the Democracy, and devoted to those
great principles which, as they have never
hesitated to avow in the face of friend as
well as foe, they will never cease to man'
tan. It is not enough merely to put down
the '"common eneiny," wi.hout knowing
who is to be put in his place. It it not
enough that we conquor. We must reap
the fruirs of victory in the re-establishment
of that great system of poiscy, without
which success will be but an empty name.
4 From the Charluion Mercurys
We concur altogether with the senti
ments above quoted from the last Wash
ington Globe. Let the declaration of our
principles be kept ever prominentlv before
the public eye that they may never be lost
sight of, and that all the candidates for the
favor of the people may be held strictly to
them, in all their length and breadth,
without compromtising them, in any one
point in the least degree. Let those priu
ciples be always inscribed on our banner:
' Free Trade; Loto Dutirs; No Debt:
Separation from Banks; Economy ; Re
trenchment; and strict adherence to the con
gitasion;" and let us bo content with no
victvry which is not a certain. unequivo
cal triumph of each and all of them.
To ensure this, we are not of the opin
ion that it is the policy of our presses to
avoid expressing their several preferences
for men--as is suggested by some of our
contemporaries. We wvould prefer than
each press should .penk out and namine is
Saw-that the people may have full time
to decide, who best will adhere to anil
maintain those pritciples-and that each
State should do likcwi-e, through its !egis
lature or a State convenion. and at otec
-that the prevailing sentimenit of the De'
mocracy may be early known, and the
claims of the several lemocratic Candi
dates be freely and fully disctssed before
a joint nomination is male. There is more
seurity against divisiuns in such a course
daa in any other.
From the Old Dominion.
INTOLERANCE OF PARTY.
The people of this country flatter them
selves that they enjoy liberty perfect, abso
lute and entire; they pride themselves upon
their having the freest form of government
upon the face of the earth. We shall not
question the truth* of the latter howevur
sincerely we may doubt the former.
The people of this country are not free!

doubt their infallibility, to dare to have an
boaest opinuion of our own, is a most dan
groms heresy, an unpardonable offence.
This is fully exemplified in mthe natter of a
Presidential nomination. Wait until the
Convention speaks-do not agitate this
enestion at thbe present, say the wire-work
ers. May we then be allowed to espress
our opinion? By no means. To utter a
word of dissent from the decision of a
packed body of initerested oflice seeker.

Neither are we tiedl to the car of Mir. O.
mor any other man, but mean to speak

to snstain her peculiar institutions, and in

Mr. Calhoun's Strength in Alabama.
From all quarters we receive cheering in
tellIgence of the progress that Mir. Cal
houn's cause is making-and especially in
our own State. Our personal acquaint
ance with the state of feeling on ii su'
jeet in many of the middle counties, as
sured tie some time since, that all was
right there, and that not only would the
entire democracy of that region, with un
his claims, but that the inueu-c of his -
name, and a just appreciation of his pecu- ei
liar fitues" fur the times, would draw back a
to our ranks, numbers of the sounder par. n
tiou of nor wbig friends, whom idle prejuti
dice alone had estranged from s. in f
other portions of the State, outof the range
of our personal knowledge, we are grau- e
Bed to learn that the same happy state of c
things either exists, or appears hkely soon ,
to be brought about.
There is no mistaking the signs of the
times; the importance of the moral, politi
cal, and financial crisis which impedes, is
every where arresting the attention of the
democratic party, and the conviction be
comes enforced upon them, that of all our
leaders, Mr. Calhoun is the man best
qualified to avert the evils with which the
rrame of our government and of society is t
threatened-and that he is the pilot who
can best bravo the approaching storm. and
guide the old racked and tempest tossed
republican ship to her safe and accustomed
moorings
Our northern counties are earnestly re
flecting upon these matters, their old pre
judices are being lost sight of-the worth
of the man they have long since known,
and no where has our progress been more
rapid, than among the indomitable demo
cracy of the Tennesses Valley. Soon will
they respond to the acciamatiuns which
South Alabama is uplifting, and when the
solemn voice of our State is spoken, every
county in our border, every community
%within our limits, will send back a min
gled echo, swelling with the name of "Cal
houn."
It is nott he mere politiciaus alone who
are aster, desirous of being borne into pow
er upon the top of the mighty wave which
they see gathering, but the people, the
honest-hearted, and intelligent Southern
farmers, the plundered and outraged agri
culturists, whose indignation is now find
ing utterance. They ftel that they have
too long endured the burdens imposed on
Southern industry to swell the gains of
Northern avarice, and in the sectional war
fare which, unfortunately for the weal of
our commott country, has been, and may
again be waged. they demand that besides
the other high qualefications which their
candidate must posses, his heart as well
as his head, mtst be interessed in the suc
cess of their principles. They reqeaire for
the candidate of their choice. that no suspi
cion shall attach to his motives, no doubt

When such considerations influence their
selection, who can doubt the preference of

any station, however elevated, within the
gilt of the American people, candid men,
of all parties, will readily admit.
"It becomes us not at the present mo

Calhoun will be the Democratic candi

he is rapidly gaittinag grotund in the affee
