has a double-leaded article which bswails the
Z" desertion of their principle b. the De

the election. 1t proposes to go on a different
tack for the future, and it points out, with all
the perspicuity Of defeat. where lie the causes
OF failure in the past. Brilliant essayist7 have
before this written essays in paragraphs as
melodous as the heXameter, as to the art
growing old gracefully. The New York
Daily Nelos is teaching its compeers how to
expire with ease, and yet in attitude. But /
here is the article ITSELF
