. WEDNESDAY! + Tae Democeatic CanDipaTe.—The Colton Committee recently sssemvled by proxy and otherwise d ask ple whe shad There are many Circumstances réfating to the position of Col. Stevenson betore the as the embediment of certain principles in this canvass and for a cortair purpose, What i It 6 800. We know from the letter that Gea. Cvlton, the chairman of the Demootatie Central Committee, he is in fa: vor of » tnion of the Demoératic elements inone party. He made the distinct avowal that he had rather coalesee with’ the secessionists than with the sougd Union men, the Republicana, We know fom the charactér of the men on that Cominittee: that Gen. Colton spoke thé seatimenits of the majority of: the Committee. The tone of the press ‘of the faction indicates that Gen. Colton is a representative of the ideas of . the leading men of the faction. Such being the facts, what was natural for the Committee when assembled to do? They were wise enough to see that nothing but the most explicit avowal of Wnionism would do for the times, or save to their nominee the votes of the factien. But the great object of uniting the two wings of the Democracy muat not be overlooked. They, thorefore, «ade a platform as strongly Union as would do to de. ceive the voters of one wing, while they nominated a man whose laxity of principle would allow him to subscribe to the platform while his whole conduct made him accepta ble to the secesh. In this the Committes but copied after the Supreme Court of the State. in a celebrated case, giving the law to the ~~ North aad the tigger to the Shuth. Tho homination has now been made. Col. Stevenson iD hefwre the people as a candidate for “Sehool Master General.” What are hia “qualifications for the position? No one Knows. He has never been identified with educational . ente, but is only known to the publi@” Ha Raving been accused of stupendous e ynfrauds in New York City, eacaping from justice, and leading & regiment of the mort abandoned men that the sinks of the cities could produce. Yet he is accepta. ble to the secesh, and it was for that most certainly that he was nominated. The Marysvilla_Erpress talke favorably of the can_ didate, but~condemns the platform. Of course; that is apart of the programme, probably. The Ezpress—can satisfy its conscience in this way, by condemning what it does not exactly like. but going forthe man on. the plea itis the best that can be done under the clreumatances—choosing the lesser of the two>evils, One wing is to hold up the platform and the other the man,and with the ery.of abolition, between tho two they hope to effect a fusion. of the wings.

It seemed to me, as I listened to him, that I had been ape ng eer egeyl that I could net bein the l of the American House of Representatives, or that the gentleman had mistaken his forum; for am quite sure that if the speech which he made had been uttered in the Hall of the Confederate Congress, ita well-rounded periods would bave drawn down enthusiastic plaudits. The corruptions of the Administration of Abraham Lincoln, says he, are saddling the labor of the country with a burden which it Phonot bear, and which will destroy the valu@of the property of the people. Sir, was John B. Bioyd @ member of Abraham Lincoln'’s Cabinet? It waahe who stole the atma that stocked the arsensal of the couni and gave them into the hands of the rebels to wage this war.. Was‘Howell Cobb a member of Abraham Lincoln's Cibinet ? It was he, sir, who brought the credit of the Government so low that-at twelve per cent per annum we could not borrow, in our own markets, the half of a propesed loan of $5,000,000, and caused Europe to turn up her nose—su to speuk—at the bare suggestion of the idea of vaiue in American securities and American credit. Was Jucob Thompson « member of Abraham Lincoln’s Cabinet?— Yet it was he whe stole the Indian bonds.— Was Toucey a member of Abraham Lincoln’a Cabinet? Yet it was he who dismantled the enly two ships that he had permitted to remain in our waterr, aud who sent all other national vessels beyond the reach of the volee of the President of thu United States, or any of his ministers. The tréachery of cin ag and Toucey created the exigency which forced the Government into the handa of speculators ia vessels-and arme-—~ Were, ask, those thieves and scoundrels Pmrembers of the present Administration, or of that over the overthrow of which the gentleman mourns?) I have heard of Satan reproving sia, and of dark things calling each other black ; but I never have witnessed 80 gigantic an illustration of either as this. Tam opposed Mr. Speaker, to swindling, either in tact or in thought, to stealing property, or to fraudulently deluding people from their patriotism and their bonest convictions. I believe in honesty and veracity, and I say that the present condition of the country is the natural result of the training which its people received at the hao's of the Demoeratic party. It held the power, honors, and patronage of the Government for nearly sixty years. 1t made our country the phinderer of nations, provided they were feeble. Filibuster became synonymous with Demoerat during the last two Administrations. — There was ne principle of honesty er veracity which the Democratic party, as represented by the administrations of Franklin Pierce and James Buchatan, illustrated to the people of the country. . And if the manegemont ot the war be corrupt and expensive, I ‘pray you to bear in mind, as the country will, that Abraham Lincoln found trained pupila and roteges.of those Administrations in all the begat and bureaus. ‘Those Administrations had adhooled armies of contractors intocorrupt waye, which they practised on uld. re with-whoerthey were fimiliar, or their inexperienced suecessors, and if does net lie in he mouth of an adherent of those Administrations—of one who seeks tv resuscitate the > who sustained them —to rebuke the Republican party or Abraham Lincoln en these points, or even to suggest te them that ter honesty and sounder discretion sh prevail in the affairs of the Government. Can you tell me, sir, or will anybedy who reads the remarks of the gentleman be able to say, whether he disapproves of the rebellion; whether he thinks the war should not have been begun; whetber he wishes us te make inglorious peace today, and goes! to stipulate te pay the ex. peases of the rebels during the war, provided they promise us peace in the future? ~< What are his views on the subject ? Did Abraham Linouln fire on Fort Sumter? Did the Republican party steal the forts, and arsenals, and mints in the South? What did they do to-bring on this war? They only avked that the Government might be administered as Washington and Jefferson, Virginians and elaveholders, administered’it. ‘That is what they desired and proposed to do when they came into power. And shall those who encouraged the rebels to strike, und whe haye up to-day, say that the Repunligu party is responsible fur the cost of fhe War, or the grievous burden of taxation it will impose on the wealth and labor of the people? ‘The labor of the country will_pay these taxes—the property of the eountry, the accumulated labor,as well as the current labor; but hew much less will they have to pay if we fail to make the South pay its just proportion of the expenses of the war; if we fail vo listen te and act on the able and eloquent Sigh of the gentleman from Missonri, (Mr N op Bee conjured us to.pass a confiscation pill will carry the property May and Jane. ‘ ; Auserus of run ascut vont oF ham Lineoln,and making so many false state-~ meats that he was branded asa calumniator and coward on the spot,.

The gentleman beemsto sigh for the restoration of the Democratic party. Sir, I cannot hear the aspiration uttered without thinking of a scene thetraveler among the the’ Swiss mountaits beholds. As you ascend the Righipside to catctia view of the glowing sunset from.the Kulm, you come upon 4 broad space, stretching away as far as the eye can .reseh, apparently for leagues, upon the broken aad barren sarface of which no weed or graas takes root, Your gnide or guide-book tells you that there, near the base of that desolate atene, once stood the thriving and happy village’ of Goldau, with its churches, its ‘mansions, its hawlets. When “the landslide took place, and the earth, a full hundred feet deep, over all that spacé was -feosed tron its bed and went thiindering into the valley, it buried the beautiful village. Under that mighty mass ite ruins still lie.— Goldau was not of sufficient importance to invite such excavations-as have been made in the vicinity of Hereulaneum and Pompeii. weight and depth of earth and rock heaped upon ste-rains-world:precinde the undertaking. The eye of man will never behold the ruins of Goldau. For it there is no resus~ citatiou. But, sir, until that buried village shall again welcome the rising sun, the Democratic party, aa Wehave known it, can never exist. Goldau wrought not its own ruin; but the Democratic party under its recent leaders wrought a land-slide upon the mountain of time and civilization which the traveler in all ages will mark with horror, and buried itself under a mass of ruins so deep, 80 grand, so awful, that no measure of energy orenterprise ¢an revive it, with all its dis. honesty of action and barbarism of purpose.
