Democrat, could'n; keep sloshin about in po-

clans, and the brighter the prospect grows the more
confident he becomes that swift destruction !. i'm.

and then inaugurating fuss and and muss and
thus impairing our strength, he managed 10 keep

persist in calling q dc1scetc instead of mass con

views should not govern. lie has evidently made
up his mind that just this juucture nothing shor.
Of mass convention vii! save Ike union aud mass
convention he is bound to have. Hence, as IL my
it may sound, he has absolutely called MAS con

day of June next to nominate candidates for Pres

Senator and a Governor, made al It's arrangements
for the National Convention, and calculates to give
the vote of the state TO Tie nominee Of that
