I'll that concerns the Democracy of Texas is,
that this ecntlcmn who wrs nominated by a
Democratic convention, declares Il his intention
to coulom 10 the HsGscS and organisation of his
party; and asserts his determination to sustain
/ the platform OF the Cincinnati and Houston cau-

with disOrganizers and those who threw Vf their
disguise in the last election and have chosen to
abandon and leave us.
The Democratic party breathes freer without
them. Either. unstable or corrupt, they have
sought to build up their own political fortunes
ut the expense of the defeat of the Democratic
party, and now let them go their own way.
Tie Democratic party has II mission to ae-

nothing less than the perpotuation of the Constl-
tuition of the Union. Wa have met with a tenn
pOrary defeat, but the masses all right. Their
second sober thought is sufficient now, to hmtthe
party in poicsr. from us position. Disorglnization
diGtrust and abandonment of the Opposition are
fairly under way. No man can deny it. All its
life lies in sowing dissensi0ns among the Demo-
cracy. This they cannot do. It's glorious mis-.
sion involves too high responsibility. We will
90 on and wage another contest Our old banner
will proudly iloat over another victory. We feel
