to the place from which he has been
elected by the Republican Committee,
nor bring him back his lost subscrib-
ers, nor secure him new nomination
to Congress. Having irrevocably for
feited, his standing with the Radicals,
he now foolishly forfeits it with the
Conservatives, as if, after having
burnt his candle out at one end, he
could restore the lost length by light
ing it at the other .ar
h The following is the closing para
graph of the article in the Times, re-
ferred to in the above dispatch. 1t is
very evident that there is an increased
split in the JOHNSON Fusion party,
and the article in the Times indicates
that RAYMOND would like to get back
into the Republican ranks. It would
appear that the Herald was correct in
its assertion that by the action of the
New York Democratic Convention
the State would give 10000 majority
for the Republicansticket.fI @t
From n. Y. Times, 16 instl
The Convention conceded to the
Republicans the nominee for Lieuten-
ant Governor; ali its other candidates
are, in thestrictestiparty sense, Dem
ocrats OF the State Central Com
mittee appointed, more than taoo-
thirds are active members of the Dem
ocratic party. And in the whole ac-
tion of the Convention, in It's. ticket,
itssplatform, its speeches and its gen
| eral tone, tits difficult to detect any
further regard for the principles de-
clared and the action taken ct Phila7
| defphia, than is shown in the purpose
to use them for strengthening the
Democratic party aud restoring it to
power. There are thousands and tens
of thousands of Republicans in this
State who long for the restoration of
| the Union, and who demand that it
shall be effected by loyal adherence
/ to the letter and spirit of the Consti-
tuition, andiby the admission to their
seats in Congress of loyal men from
loyal States, who can take the oath
prescribed by law. But they will be
quite likely to prefer taking their
chances of securing this result from
the action of the Republican party,
modified as it may be by reflection and
moderate ceunsels, rather than seek
it in the way marked out for them by
the Albany Democratioe Convention.
