Onr Candidates for President.

We this day place at the head of our
paper the names of JOHN c. BRBcKisRIDGx
and JOSEPH LANE for President and Vice
President, expressive of our choice. We
have long since named our preferences for
President, but until the present put up no
mans name. When the Union Ticket was
first proposed, we resolved at once TO give
for the Democracy TO succeed in carrying
The election over The common enemy in the
State of Pennsylvania. And, as there were
two candidates claiming 10 be Democratic
nominees, we thought not TO have either
mans name at the head of the STAR, but TO
battle assiduously for the election OF the
Union Electoral Ticket. But 10 save trouble
of explaining nearly each week, either by
editorial or copied articles, which of the
four candidates are our preference, we have
hung out the flag, with the names of JOHN
C. BRscKIsRIDGE and JOSEPH LANE, our
standard bearers, inscribed thereon.
1t would be absurd, under such circum-
stances, TO speak of either of the candidates
as being really national nominees they may
be national in their principles, but certainly
are not in their nominations. Having TO
make a choice between them we shall
support that one, as we have 6ver done,
who most nearly approaches our princi-
pies, and promises equality of rights 10 all
the country. And, however much sons
few of our friends may censure the course
which, upon candid view of all the cir
crms.ances, we have ielt compelled by
our convictions of duty to take, we trust
that when the excitement shall have subsi-
ded, and reason resumed its sway, they
viii unite with us in approving it, and say
that we have done right.
