The assertion is here made by the Pennsylvania that
the in Pennsylvania New Jersey New Hampshire
and Maine would be than doubtful with any other can
aidate than Mr. Buchanan. We will not retort upon the
the bera remark that this assertion dis
plays either unronsd ignorance objectionable duple
These ephets which indicate much of personal
malice than of wise discretion and freely pass by
exciting other feeling than that of regret that Mr.
Buchanan is made suffer by the mad zeal of SO inds-
Greet friend and that the harmony of the Cincinnati
Convention should be jeoparded by unnecessary
exhibition of vndictive passion If the assertion Of the
Pennsylvania is anything than the game of
brag, it that in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New
Hampshire and Maine the true national democrats are
in minority and therefore, that whilst neither Pierce
Douglas could carry themas they could get other
than those of true democras-Mr. Buchanan could
carry them because in addition to the democrats he
could get outside support We frankly confess that If
such is the Of the public sentiment at the North
the democrats in that section whose judgments
we have relied egregiousy deceived Our infor-
nation is, that any sound national democrat who
may be nominated will receive the entire democratic
vote of the northern States and that in the several
States enumerated by our triumph viii be equally
certain, whether Mr. Buchanan, General Pierce, Judge
Douglas any other nominee standing equally unercep-
tionabe the democratic platform, be the nominee.

ple the part Of the leading northern democrats on
whose opinions rely and II it be true the Penn
sylvanian asserts that the contest would be more than
doubtful in those States with any other candidate than
Mr. Buchanan, the necessary result is that party
forced either submit to defeat on s rincipLes or To
victory by looking for help outside of it's own
ranks The Pennsylvania must greatly reform some Of
its late habits Of political warfare before we can consent to
believe that any such disareeabe alternative Is forced
upon 1t not the tone temper Of the northern de-
mocracy any than the southern democracy TO seek
any other than outsnd-out democratic victory We
have that with either of distinguished champions

for any other kind Of victory It does injustice to i own
past reputation well to the sound democracy Of the
