Ove seer of the Shinn. ti oi The Next We have received from' Washington, An Appeal to tlVe People of Yjirginia," by A in 'lie gjijipe of pamphlet urging; the duty of- tlie Democracy of this Stale to fav'ov the-re uo'min aiion of Gen. Pierce for the There uro probably, few men in Virginia or out'of place a higher estimate upon the public services or private worth of Gen. Pierce than 'we Ave sustain him to a extent than.any yy i.v 'i we I.no?? we are not willing to ac-. knowledge that.he-is the only good and great men in our-'party, or that it is our xluty to re-elect liilri to the Presidential chair.

While we would support him with yrc.at cheerfulness if at the Cincinnati Convention, there are many reasons why wo would prefer the nation of another man. The idea put forth in this Appeal," that if we desert him, (Pierce,) we proclaim an ingratitude and inconstancy, which will inevitably alienate our Northern friends, and which will leave the South in a state of helpless isolation," is simply ridiculous for while Gen. Piercc has bfcen true to the Constitution and the Union, there are others that have been no loss faithful and we are not prepared to admit that the destiny-of any section, North or any one of the many sound men'now "before the countc-u ft OH tt: vuq on i vir try as candidates foi; theinqmination pt Cincinnati. Gen. Pierce owes his nomination to and if his I'fppAtlS, qr1" the Democrats of the North, I should become dissatisfied because she should riot repeat the service, would proclaim an ingratitude-and.

which would isolate" them. There can be' no doubt that James i i i I I IW4j04U Buchanan is the first choice of the Democratic party of Virginia for the next Presidency, he certainly is in this section of the state, and in going for him, we do not feel that we are guilty of any ingratitude" or inconstancy," that should alienate our Northern or any body else. Henry A. Wise is our second choice, and if our Northern friends" "alienate" us therefor, so be it. is our 'seeond choice, we consider him less worthy or available than Mii.

In the above friend Morris evidently gives his 6wn experience as ti conductor of a journal, and we Venture the ass.ertiou that.is is also the experience of nine-tenths of the editors of the country. It is simply what we have always said was the case with the leading men of that party, and it is gratifying, to us to see the groat head and front- of Know-Nolhingism in this parft of the State make the acknowledgement. What a most contemptible picture lie of tho part which has been played by himself and colleagues, yet we have no doubt 'that it is as true as it is humiliating. Mr. Morris was the first person thai openly advocated the, doctrines of Know-Nothingism in this country, and is probably as well acquainted with its machinery and objects as any otheT mail.

His frank acknowledgements unworty objects of i.is party, should be a. warning to all ers. As evidence that we are correct in asserting that the above is the experience of the editor of the Gazette, we quote again from his paper OUR PAST PAINFUL the dishonesty, trickery, and of almost all us to watchfulness, moderation and prudence, on our part, and to firmness and decision, with ottr corresoondents."
