Many well-meaning, straitforward people havelong wondered what the KDOM¦¦Nothing party wa*
really driving at. Their expectations iu the eom-
iog vmuU it (af the I 'residency haw been involvedin mystery. An a party deniring success for itsmember* upon a honiespun basis of good sense,
their policy waa paaiii, They kad only to ao aeithat the Aiiü-Nebraaka men of the North could
coi.perate with tkem ,cr they with the Anti-Ne¬braska men in tbe election of President, to make u
triumph certain. To be sure, i; would not be thetriumph of the Know-Nothings alone, but i'. beingthe beot the cane admitted of, it was clearly theirtrue policy to become partners in a victory whichthey could not achieve without assistance. Manyand leading members of the party, actuated by fair
purposes mid M bo have never been willing to believethat the people of the North oovli be brought byany indirection to sustain the late measures of theslave propagandists have labend bard to accom¬
plish this result. It was said, ovcrai.d over again, at
the late Convention that the Northern Know-Noth¬ings and the Republicans acting In concert, eatjlita*iij «nought elect a l'rvideht. And tbe statc-
uicut i« i Imoet a tvlf-i vident tratl. If we t.ikethe lmt elections as n criterion of judgmctit, thef.ict is indisputable. But there were plenty ofNorthern Know-Nothings in the Comentiou whoevidently did not wuit to IBOOOod on suoii a basis.It was of no cousequei.ee tl.at they aitd the whole( oiiv. ntion were to d ti . t if no «uch co..pi ration
was possible, then tbe race of the Know-Nothingparty wuf run, and that they rxjBls» aVOt kepe sVfsuccess any where. Such a consideration had no
tendency to dissuade them from pursuit; ,t -our.'
total to the s nc »s 01 the party. The ConventionIXTsisted in destroying all ebance of a participa¬tion in a presidential triumph and nom uatod Mr.I'illmore aaj a d. ad certainty el defent.This lettoB lifts the viiil and shows clearly what
tbe present iLumagers. o. the Know-Nothing organi¬zation are at. There i* no loug»r hny uncertaintyns to the policy of the leaders of that pany. Tueyd«i not SXpeot to succeeti. Tbt-y do rot even
care a brass farthiEe about the doctrines whichhave «i\en the Order u sfntitH pojiularity, andhave been tbe foundation of all its successes. Theyhave not recognized a single distinctive principleor measure in tbe Convention. They have beendumb or every iasue, and have adjourned withoutsaying any thing or doing anything beyond nominat¬
ing Millard Fillmore lor Preeident. They have
pasm-d do keaeli*«sasaB| aaede mi platform, but *iin-
ply nominated a ticket and run. They propose no
eOaTteol on ai.y doctrine or j-rinciple or measure,
but simply acanvds* on I mar..and a man who is
the roprewntativc of neither side of any living po¬litical i»«ue. Occupying only a negative position,be is intended to accomplish tuly r egative results.He is simply pitcbed into the cat-vans M an ob«struction. To be (oire it ia plain enough to I»e sirn
that If he were tt. be eiected he would be found en
inveterate enemy to tbe cad*> and the friends offretdoiu He hasr.evtr c ct-pied ssaj other po»i-tion these seven y ear* past.Bur be is sjasj ot the range of nek « possibility,
.did the fact thus becomes of small consequence^Mr. Killntore's Meadl sine,!, it tend to use him in' I
tka canvass ef 1666 as Mr. ^'ac Buren was used in 'I .for th» breakinr down a| another party.Tbe game is the tame. tbou_»h the r> suit may bediffeieut. Tlie action of the Philadclphin Conven¬tion is a nani KTOf of the New-York Know-Nothing.tud Silver Orey politicians to damage the Republi¬can party and inj ire certain leading individuals¦WitIn. Tke Cnvetsttoti kn ben usetl simply aa
an instrument to kirtl.cr certain p« rtoiial aimt ofthese politicians. They fcivc thought that by takingMr. I ilhm>rr mt the Know-Notkir.«. candidate, theywould have au od\..nt».^c with ihe old moderateWhigs everywhere fa the North, and would drawoff many at" them u. kis aupport on the ground o:'his former elevation.The object, then, of the Know Notbiugs has
dw.i.dleto this.tt ieakej the Republican party.That is to say, this is the object of those w ho havemanagtd the Philadelphia Convention and nomin¬ated Mr. Fillmore. The FvYice^President is putft>rw srd as a man wfco can entice votes enough from
the Republican ranis in rb.* Free State* te givethe election to the Nebnska DseaMCMjr. It i* a
fortunate circumstance, ar.d an om.n 01 good totb-cause of Freex om, that cirri instances nave cor-
straine* tk« Know-No'hiug nom nation thug early.The contest now inuuediau-l) op.iie, not between
tt a Know-Nothicg candidate anil anybody else, butbetween those irhe are for tie spread af Blaoerya::d tbe-e who are ag;<in«t it. It ia an importantcircumstance, aid a peruiiariy ktnfjf one, that *7*
thus early know the whoic a mot tie- Kvw S'o.h-
ing l»sd< r« in the next Pre-identi.ti cmitc**. W*understand th.-m tully, and t will go hard butit. r\ N< r?h» rn voter ah;ill understand them Mate
lie^.re the ejection ome»Thin early nomination will prove the mint disas¬
trous blow that co lid have bei u given to the objectsof ihcce w'io have ti.ade it. There jpj now ampletime to UMM to the country the hollow motive*which actuated it and the results which aione can
flow from it. It will do more than anything elaeeoajU have done to divide the country upon the realissue before it. 'I"he Know-Nothing caudilate willbe gradually crowded one akin, ;-.nd every dar'*difcuaeion will lessen hi* suppor.. while the ranksof the friend* of Freedom w ill be correspondinglyincreased. Day by day it will grow clearer amiclearer to tbe pep ilar mind that men ajsjaj rangethemselves on the one aide or the other of the greatquestion of the extension of Slavery. And it mustat length come to tie regarded a* a farce to think of\oting for a man who represents neither side ofthe question, lei! is simply hi Id out as a lure to
catch votes without having tho -.'host of a chance forslice* af.
*
Mr. Fillmore will serve tbe personal purpose*of tbore who kai e pioeured hii. nomination,perhaps.,as well as any hotly who could have been hit upoti,l.ut his nomination is a singelar sacrifice af lariemotives to small ones. The Know-Nothiug can¬
didate. h;.d he been the right man, stood a chanceof carrying this State in the Presidential election.But Mr. Fillmore stands no rkinrtn »t alL Hisantecedents will repel the Hard vote, which in a
certain emergency mhbt hu\o gonelargely 10 theKnow-Notion*.' candidate, (ai it wont at the last? lection.) while from all other quarters accessionsnr.- oi.t ot the i,io stion. In bet, w e look upon Mr.FillmoreV. nomination ta u voluntary sacrificeof nil tbe ehinees af the Know-Nothingparty in this State. The authors of ithave their ov n personal aiini to sub¬serve, wkirk will in due time appear. The*have scuttled tho ship without the koowi-edge of saoaf of the individuals on board, who srillonly beooaac IWUt of the tact at the mom.-lit theysee theOi'i'lve. going down. The unsophisticated¦taoaea Of tke Know-Nothing parr, in the Northwill probably no: awake to the swindle of Mr.Fillmon 's nomination until all chance or hope is
passed of keeping the Know Nothing feesei afloator even of saving thi mselves from going downwith the wreck. Wt will not, however, despairthat many may reasonably take to their boats andfind a boapitable reception tn board a staawekercraft and among friends more trustworthy.On the whole we cannot but think that dace tke
leaden of tke Know>Notkiag party were determinedia I to aid but to prevent the lection of a triend ofFreedom as President, that they wen incapable ofdoing Lkt Republican party a greater service thanto nominate their candidate thus early and to name
Millard Fillmore as the man. For both of w hichacts we therefore beg to tender them our linccnthanks.

This principle we take it Tfu ( omm rem I ilsfsOTtt'>r i- j npand to carry oaf. Now. the platformupon which Mr. Fillmt.ro was nominated is the
platiorm containing the celebrated Twelfth Section.Not only was the new platform adopted by the Na¬tional Council a day or two before the nominationrepudiated by Mr. FiUmore r friends in the nom¬
inating convention. They insisted (and with some
show of reason too) that as the nomitiatiug conven¬
tion hau bu t: chosen uudt r the Twelfth Sectionplatfoiu ir was upon that platform that the nom¬
ination must lie made.The qeeattii n. however, as to what platform Mr.
Fillmore stai.ds upoi., or v. hi ther, as The Com-mrrciat Advertiser alleges, '. he possesses in an ex¬
traordinary degree the qualifications for thePresidential office." ctnnot, as matters stand, be
of tbe lc3*t consequence to The Commercial .hirer-tisrr, or anyinidy else, in settling the questionwhether or nor tt UippOti Mr. Fillmore as a Presi¬dential candidate. In the last National Whigennctu opiniona somewhat different from those ofTAc Commercial [Jrertiser s.-em to have been tsVtortaiiied as to Mr. Fillmore's special qualificationsfor tbe Presidential office. At least if we recollectaright, he was not re-nonimated by that body,though very zealously urged upon it from the very|ame quitter which has given him his presentOomination. Bol koWOTei that may have ktel.ofwhat earthly eotJaWantnee are a man's qualifica¬tion* for an office which there is not tbe slighte-tpossibility of his ever filliDg 1 Mr. Fillmore,notwithstitnding his nomination, and withall the votes he may be able to pick up,Know-Nothing or BOvef Qxejr, is no more likely tobe cho.scn President of the I'nited States than heis to be chosen Pope of Rome. It is paying toparticular complimeut to tbe sagacity ot The Ceavmirciul A'icerttser to suppose that it sees this factas clearly as we do. But, though tbe vote* givento Mr. Ftlluiore cannot elect him, taey may helpto elect Mr. Pierce or Mr. Wise, or whuc ,-r el.may be the nominee of the Cincinnati Convention;and it was for that purpose, aud no other, that tbeSouthern men at Philadelphia tiomim: d Yr.

No very important dispatches have been received.e mails of the Atlantic and the Asia. Private,
letters from Mr. Buchanan state explicitly andemphatically that the relations between himselfand Ford Clarendon were on a friendly footing,iti.l wer* eveti more cordial than they had beensince Secretary Marcy 's dispatch desiring there-call of Mr. Crampton. Lord Clarendon was desir¬ous of replying to Mr. Marcy's paper, but would
probably wait for Mr. Crampton'* explanations.There is not one syllable of truth in the rumoredmedintioo of Mr. Bulwor, not was there aoy man«
ner of occasion lor it. The tone of tbe BritishPress was wholly uu*arrauted by any official fact.Tbe statements were fabricated, and the limitedinformation altogether exaggerated. There is
nothingken warranting any expectation of a rup¬ture: still, there may be <ome temporary enibar*rassmonts in diplomatic etiquette. The linlist-m.at correspondence will probably not be com¬
