dreams and prophecies OF our forefathers would
OF lergtb be realized. We Insist that President
Lincoln shall dispassionately consider all this.
He tried the great war measure Of the radi-
cals--the emancipation proclamation it
has failed. Now let him try the great war
measure we have recommended. 1t has GER
tanly these advantages over all Others: that it
cannot fail entirely, and that it will inestima-
bly, benefit the President and the country
whether it partly fails or wholly succeeds

cratic organizations are to select their can.
didates for county and other Offices we
again hear rnmors Of bargains to be made be-
tween this little clique and that for the disposs
ton Of the loaves and fishes to their particular
adherents. Though q fool be brayed in
mortar, or even In the best Roman cement"
as the good book says, "yet will he not learn
wisdom" Ever since Mr.. Fernando Wood, on
his being turned out of Tammauy, organized
the rebellious forces OF Mozart Hall, this trade
of creating fresh democratic organizations for
personal purposes has been increasing, each
new smachine" being the mere pocket piece Of
some greedy denagogue, who has used it to
enforce the concession 70 himself Of some i'm
Fortunate demand. So far was this carried
that at length the patience Of the democratic
masses became exhausted, and lest year, by Il
great popular uprising in the municipal
election, they declared that no more
OF this miserable huckstering would DO
allowed. aud that though the leaders Of this
or the other clique might bargain and sell to
their hearts content, the people would refuge
to allow their votes to be !" delivered over
under any bargains Of The kind.
We have now four general democratic Or
CARNATIONS in the city and county, all claiming
to represent tho people. There is Tammany
Hall, the old traditional organization Of the
democratic party Of Manhattan Island. There
is Mozart Hal! proper, which is the personal
trading capital Of the brotle:s Benjamin and
Fernando Wood. There is the McKeon ma
chine, mere agglomeration OF soreheads and
political noodles, the refuse and offscouring Of
the Tammany and Mozart factions; aud lastly,
there ia "New Mozart" organization, OF which
Mr.. Luke Cozans is believed to be sole pa
tentee and proprietor, this last machine being
probably mere 'wedge OF difference intro
duced by certain astate Tammany managers TO
weaken the forces and distract the attention Of
tie brothers Ben and Fernando.
Under this state Of facts the course for the
Tammany managers TO pursue ia clear and

bargain aud SALE with other factions, aud
let them nominate straight ticket Of the very
best and strongest men, irrespective of cliques,
that they can find in the whole country. The
men to be selected must not be old party backs,
nor men who stand upon the record as having
had corrupt affiliations with the republican
lobby. They must be men fresh from the
people.--new names in politics, but moi new to
the popular ear, and with antecedents emitting
them to public respect and confidence. With
such ticket, pure and simple, put in the field by
Old Tammany, all other so-called democratic or
CARNATIONS would '.gnaw dle' in attempting to
resist its election. Tammauy would again re.
