Among those who have enlisted in The
opposition to tie Baltimore Convention,
We find our old friend Thomas Loring.
esq. late Of the Standard. II the last In
dependent, which has been conducted Cor
a year on neutral principles, in notice to
his patrons and The public, be comes ont
openly and announces his change Of posi-
lion. During forty years, he says, he has
been attached to the Democratic Republis
can party; and though occasionally there
appeared TO be fauliering in principle and
inconsistency in action, 10 which no
sometimes raised a voice Of dissent, yet
he still continued to adhere 10 the party
for the sake Of the principles which he
cherished. This was up to the opening
of the last session Of our Legislature; at
which lime he openly dissentcd and strong
ly condemned some Of The leading meg
sures ofthe Democratic party, was disown-
ed by some Of the leading members, and
shortly afterwards sold out his interest in
the Standard; and he now says, the "dis-
gushing scenes Of that Legislature il win
be his province to notice more particular
ly hereafter" Mr.. Loring then goes on
to say:
"The Democratic Convention recent.
ly held at Baltimore, has developed in
cidents and characters that demand the at.
ieniion and scrutiny Of every friend Of
freedom. Here we behold Hank and an
THANK men; Unionisis and Disnnionis,s;
Repudialicnists and anli-Repudiat onis,s;
rariffites and anti. TaFiflites--mei ,ngelh-
er in spirit Of mutual malignily; and az
teT rejecting from their support every man
Of mind and merit, we see them affect to
harmonize upon "a man Of straw and
audaciously hold him mp 10 the American
People as proper candidate for the Chief
Magisracy Of his great AMI glorious
Union. Is this the Democratic Party!
Is this the freedom the Public Will! Are
the People to submit, to this daring and
reckless despoiism Of selfish politicians
and ambitious demagogues!
For one, we say-No! We will
neither tamely submit nor be cravenly
silent. And while we tender our heart
felt thanks and express our warmest re-
CARDS To the many pure and honest men
OF the Democratic party with whom we
have been associated, and from whom
we have received many kindnesses, We
utterly repudiate and denounce the course
of the leaders who hold the destiny Of the
party under their CENTRAL. From the tri-
umph Of this combination of selGshness,
demagoguism and Reorganization, our
country has nothing Of good to hope, but
every thing Of evil TO lear; and we be-
lieye that consistent regard for the puri.
,y of the republican principles, will be
best promoted in the support Of the Wing
Candidates for the prominent offices now
about to BECOME vacant,
ave shall, therefore, in our next nun.
her, place the names Of GRAHAM. and
CLAY, and FRELlNGHuysEN, at the head
Of our editorial columns, and endeavor to
show tha, the safety and prosperity of
the country require their election.
"We are satisfied that we have not re-
ceded from the ground we early occupied.
nor abandoned the principles which have
"grown with our growth and strengthen
ed with our strength" Principles are
not developed by the name. but by the
action Of party-and certain politicians
will tleclaim about their DEVOTION to de-
mocratic principles in van, while their
deeds are despolic."
