The proposition is self-apparent that the
opposition to the Democratic party can only
succeed BY union Of ali the organizations
into which il is now divided. Ii IS
clear TINT in every State whore Democrat
&c disscnsions have hitherto existed. the
means Of healing them have been found and

10 practice the same tactics. Every where
the latter are shown TO be ina large aioritv,
and the terms and conditions Of the coalition
needed 10 make that majority effective are
suggested by tho incidents attending the re-
cent State contests. Pennsylvania ID almost
the only Northern State in which the Admin

by a temporary want Of agreement among
its opponents.
