by the Constitution Of the country. With
this understanding We see that many promi'
nent democrats are favoringit it. Mr.. Seward,
who favors it, says. "Wbstever is done;
must be done in accordance with the Con-
sttutou and laws" To this every Demo-
crat in the land can subscribe. The De-
mocracy have ever stood by and upheld the
Constitution, and respected and maintained
the laws, and if the new organization is
built upon the basis suggested BY Mr.. Sew
ard, then the Democracy may subscribe to
it, but if new party is organized that dis.
cards this essential plank" the Democracy
will have nothing to do with it. Neither
will they recognize it without the general
principles Of Democracy are subscribed to-;
and every Democrat in the land must stand
on an equal footing With all Others who may
join The new organization.
We are not prepared to give in our ad'
hesion to this new organization. We shall
await i,s action and then further, the action
afterwards Of the National Democracy in
reference to it.
10 order to bring about a perfect settle.
ment OF The late difficulties Of the country,
we are satisfied that the conservative ele,
mcut ofthe country must combine and defeat
the Radicals, who are using every effort to
demoraze the nation. Without it is done,
another generation will see us as much de-.
graded and demoralized as Mexico and the
South American Republics. Ifthe conserva'
tive element triumphs then there will be a
successful and happy future for our nation.

independent course be has won the generous
