NJ. Heinzer, in the speech alluded to, thus
speaks oI the Democratic party:
"The Democratic party, as It now exhibits
itself, in spite of the ..moral," "iiberai' and
progressive" expressions in Us platform. has
no More oil true democracy than the nIme;
and nothing can be more appropriate to 1t
than what its own platform says Of the Wing
party, (which conceives no imposture too
monstrous for the popular creduity.'
We hope our German Democrats will find
something in that remark worthy of serious
reflection. It is true. We have already
published his opinions of Gen. Pierce, in
which he speaks of the 'obscure Mr.. Pierce, -
as a man scarcely known cut OF his own
family CIRCLE But we may as well give a
paragraph here:
"Well. then, the candidates selected by
| the Convention are the Northern Mr. Pierce
i'm conjunction with the Southern Mr.. King.
No prophet on eartn, not even one s'ngt Ger
man bunker newspaper, had ever thought OF
the obscure Mr.. Pierce, who was arcely
known out of his own family cir, lie. Yet no
sooner is this M. Pierce put forward IS the
candidate, than as ii by magic, he ut one blow

this sort vi thing seFvility, want u prlnci

had nominal, the Emperor Souiouqut, " the
King GLizo of D1homy, their candicae,
every real d mJcrdt would have been bound
from That moment to love him as the faith o
his country.
We close this article with another extract
published in the previous ar~icle Oh this sub
lject:
No man. in The present p siton OF affairs
