THE AeoSY ovER-MR. BucHASAs Nom-
SArED.-The nomination Of Mr. Buchanan for
the Presidency by the Democratic Convention
will not surprise those who have watched care
fully the political representations of the last
few weeks, In its dire necessity, the Demo-
cratic party has been compelled to cast aside the
most fully committed champions Of its policy,
and, osiraclsng the Senator who originated,
and the President who approved, the Nebraska
bill, to present 10 the country candidate who
has taken bot liule part in the political strug-
giles Of the last four years This is a conces-
sion to public feeling which. under ordinary
circumstances, nigh, nIslead the unihinking ;
but coupled as the nomination is with the most
odious pro-slayery platform ever framed, il will
take more than Mr. Buchanan s "respectabiily"
to make il respectable. The record Of tina,
gentleman, in spite Of the skill with which he
has endeayored to make il a clear one, is sin
eularly inconsistent. He, Northern man,
will now have an opportunity to explain his
double treason to the Norih-he will be afford
ed chance Of showing upon what principle he
insisted upon the extension Of the Compromise
line 10 the Pacific, and afterwards, at the call
of the South, abandoned it altogether. A man
who has played fas, and loose in his politics
through long life, usually ends by overreach-
ing himself; and that Mr. Buchanan did most
singularly overreach himself when he wIole
his unfortunate letter 10 Mr. SlidelI, we think
no one can doubt.
We regard this nomination as most fortunate
for the Republican party. Il relieves US from
the necessity Of coniendine wrh candidate
whose political faults are unknown. and whose
principles are dubious. 1t shows US, too, the
necessity Of uniting in an unbroken phalanx all
who have at heart the best interests Of the coun-
try. Made month or two ago, the nominal
ton Of Mr. Buchanan might have induced few
conservatives to unite with the Democracy !;
but such an influence, coming as il does after
the outrages 10 Kansas and the assault on Mr.
Sumner, il comes too late. With candidate
like John G. Fremont, fresh, vigorous and hon
est, and representing the enlightenment and en-
ierprise Of the country, we are perfectly sure
Of triumph in the next election. Let our
friends, throughout the land, be ready every
where for the battle lei these but know and
put forth their strength, and the victory will
be ours boston Atlas.

unless it shall be made so available, there can
be no victory achieved for the popular cause.
The Democrats, with the entire mass Of the
slave States to back them, can elect their man
even if there should be a majority on the other
side of half million, unless the whole of the
free States should be united excepting Penn

all of the free States, and they have as clear a
right to have them there as The free party, or

have the same right to nominate electoral tick

not do 50, aud that their candidates for electors
would all be Brooksed, by way Of practical com

BUCHANAN AND HIS OPINION.

James Buchanan, the Democratic candidate
for the Presidency, was born in franklin county
Pa, April 10, 1891 lie is consequently 65
years Of age. He studied the profession oflhe
law in his native State, and in 1914 was elect.
ed TO the House of Assembly, TO which he was
reelected The ensuing year. At this priod of
his life Buchanan was Federalisi, and he was
by that party elected to Congress in 1920. lie
was member Of the House of Representatives
for several succeeding terms ill March, 1891,
when he declined further service. lie was,
during this period of his career, in favor of a
protective tariff ard internal improvements,
measures of public policy upon which he turn
ed his back when he joined The Democratic
party, with many of the old Federalisis, at the
time jackson was brought forward for the Presi-
dency. One Of his earliest official acts in Con-
gress was to vote for the bill for the preserva-
lion and repair of the Cumberland road, pet
measure of Henry Clay, which asserted the
right Of the Federal Government to collect tolls
on roads running through the States, and even
authorized the President to enhance or reduce
those tolls at his discretion.
No politician paid more assiduous court to
Gen. Jackson than did Mr. Buchanan, and his
agency in circulating if not actually connecting
the false report ofihe bargain between Mr. Clay
and Mr.. Adams for the election Of the latter To
the Presidency, is remembered to his discledit
| 1t was Buchanan who led Gen. Jackson into a
personal endorsement Of the calumny, an act
which The latter undoubtedly regretted to his
dying day and he always dislrnsied Buchanan
for his agency in the matter. Mr.. Clay never
forgot Of Mr.. Buchanan. and but short time
previous TO his death in 1859, when the slip
perry statesman was a candidate before the Dem
ocratc National Convention, he spoke Of him
as hearlless and insincere politician. There
was more sober truth than of hard feeling in
this remark, f1r this disirusi Of Mr., Buchanan
has been shared by nearly all who have been
prominently associated with him. Polk made
him member ofhis cabinet, but is said to have
leii In his diary kept at the time an emphatic
declaration Of his want Of confidence in him.
Alter leaving Congress Mr. Buchanan did not
long continue in private life. Ia May, 1881,
he was offered and accepted the mission TO Rus
STA. Aher his return from Russia, he was, in
1884, elected to the Senate Of the United States
to fill an unexpired term, and was subsequently,
re. elected in 1896 aud 1913. President Polk
ia March, 1915, called Mr.. Buchanan into the
Cabinet, and until tho close of that administra-
lion he held the Office OF Secretary Of State

candidates for the high office Of President Of
