sent administration has introduced an "era Of
good feeling" into all the circlls Of the demo-
cratic party Past offences are blotted out,
and, upon the broad principle that all are in
good standing who supported the Baltimore
ticket OF 1852. Martin Van Buren, comes again
into full communion. The success Of the free
sellers Of 49, and the secessionists Of '50'5l in
reaching the highest seats in the synagogue is
proof to the point And we doubt not the old
felt that there may be something in the prestige
OF legitimacy which attaches to the name Of
Van Buren,, and to the circumstance that he
was in the height Of his glory as the anointed
of Gen. Jackson, during the nine years that
Gen. Pierce served in Congress. At all events.
enough has been done to satisfy the New York
democracy that Martin Van Buren,, and all con-
cerned, are entitled to their most charitable
consideration. We do not suppose that the old
rats of Tammany Hall would have Joined so
heartily in the ex-President's reception had they
suspected that in the least degree it would be
displeasing to their masters.
Well, public life is full of vicissitudes The
man ueuOuuceu tO-uay ts q uaitoi, may
tomorrow be again a patriot. Look at
Santa Anna! The very man who has ru-
ined his country has been hit upon rs the
only man to restore it. Martin Van Buren,
will, doubtless, be well received in Europe
| as an ex-President Of the United States
and the country will share in all compG.
ments thus bestowed. But at Stafford House
the abolition female nobility will be most
apt to welcome him as our antislavery
Presidential candidate of 1885, and perhaps
they may seek to defy him with Uncle
Tom, Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe, and the
Black Swan. But when we remember that
the success of the Buffalo platform would have
been the dissolution of this Union, and that
| the present administration owes its glorious
| triumph to the measures and principles which
have saved the Union. the democratic honors
with which the said ex-President left these
shores are very remarkable. What comes
next?

several important unsettled claims Of citizens Of
the United States against the States of Guate-

We hope that one of the first cares of our
Minister to Central America will be to have full
