CRATE en- open rupture. Personal
predictions, sectional pariialiiies and
disenaions, arising from various caus-
IS, disturb rs hitherto quiet and we'll
trained organization. Pennsyl-
vania, the Keystone State, has Of late
become quite prolific in her express
siODs towards the various candidates
who lift their hopes and aspirations TO
this highest pinnacle Of American pro-
motion. Sometime since a portion Of
the keystone State nominated that
stern Federalisi, James Buchanan, for
this distinguished station. Recently
a large meeting Of pseudo democrats
has been held in the metropolis Of
Pennsylvania, and Governor, now
General Cass, has been designated
as the champion ofthe lOcoioco party
for the next Presidency. The nom
nation ofaGeneral Cas- is heralded
to the public eye with a aourishing
biography aud narrative Of bis warlike
and civil Establishments. 10 the out
set Of the glowing preamble notice is
taken ofihe democratic meeting which
nominated Me-. Buchanan sometime
previous, 10 a tone Of unqualified
reprobation," and their proceedings
stigmatised as tnarrow aud illiberal
conduct" with other animadversions.
The supporters Of General Cass ap-
plaud with uncommon zeal his deeds
as a military chieltain, and chuckle
with extacy when they allude 10 bis
literary pursuits and negative career
that has distinguished him since he
Left the camp ofthe immortal Harrison.
They seize upon the phamplet late
ly uttered by this eminent individual
during his sojurn in France, upon the
fright Of search" as the legitimate hob
by upon which he is TO canter into the
Presidential Chair. Casting aside and
bestIiding all the pretensions ofthe nu-
merous aspirants who look greedyily
to the White House, they have pitch
ed their choice upon Gen. Cass, aud
the idolitary displayedln their address,
the spirit Of obslinacy and uncomprom-
ising devotion, with which il is imbued,
show conclusively they will not abate
one 1.-THE in their preference. More
recently a meeting twas held in in the
city of"brotherly love, "at which Mar
ito Van Buren,, once the apostle and
high priest of modern democracy, and
Michael Cassie Of Gen. Jackson, since
cashiered by public sentiment, was
nominated as the only person suitable to
run the cource with gallant Harry in
1914. More recently still, John Cat
aline Calhoun, as the Globe was wont
10 call him, has dotted his senatorial
gown, and saddled white Surrey for
the field. 1t cannot be disguised by
sophistry or any other delusiva process.
that MI. Calhoun, wliUso burning gaze
has so long been fixed upon the Pres
idency will not give up this last oppor-
tunity j ostIed from his place by the sub
lie arts ofthe magicia, when the scepre
was almost within bis grasp, he has
since been tortured by the consuming
ffes CT disappointment aud ambition.
The wrath kindled by the 6end that
ousted Mr.. Calhoun from Gen. Jack,
on's sactuaryis unappeasable. Forgeals
it has slumbered, and with "palient
shrug," he has borne the sights and
contumelies poured upon him by patti
zan presses and Grothy politicians, who
have sustained the locofoco dynasty.
He will be a candidate, and all The
stratagems Of III nderhooker, pham-
plets Of Gov. Cass, nominations Of
Mr.. Buchanan, orations Of Col. John
son, aud bellowings Of the Missouri
buffalo, cannot shut him out from the
canvass Of 1914. Surely there never
was so much trouble in a wigwam as
now exist in the great Nauvoo Of the
locofoco party From every list and
band Of the heterogeneous mass thai
constitutes ii, brislles a sturdy,a noisy
applicant for its highest favors. From
every section Of the Union, mutter-
ings Of disafection and INSTRUMENTATION
are borne upon the breeze, and whal
renders the matter slll worse, John
Tyler, who may be correctly denom-
mated the outlaw Of all parties, with
his brides and compromises, and bis
meagre Swiss guard, is Numbering al
the gate Of the locoloco tabernacle for
admittance.
We do condemn, abhor, and detesI
democratic strife in all its peases. Re.
bellions and revolutions in government
we deplore; unless some great benev-
olent end is to be attained; In all So
ciely where order and unanimiiy
should prevail, there is nothing we dis
approve more throughly than discon-
tent. But 10 the eveat OF a locoloco
disruption, the only event that can
wreck the "long low rakish looking
vessel" we must rejoice, and eve
