The Presidency In rs8s.

In the Norristown Register OF last week
We notice a long, well-written article, strong.
" tayoring the nomination of THOMAS H.
SEYMOUR. Of Connecticut, for President in
1865, and RICHARD H. STANTON, of Ken
tucky, for Vice President Little gallant
Connecticut iscer.ainly entitled to something
nt the hands Of the pcmoc ocracy, and wc do
not hnov Of any better time to reward her
lIr. SEYMOUR is, unquestionably, 4 man Of
fno ability, and possesses great popularity
with the old time-honorod Democratic party.
With him the Democratic party would sweep
every thing before them. lie would carry
annmbcr Of the eastern States which, with
any other candidate, might be considered
doubtful, We have not yet looked over
the field, carefully, with view Of discover
ing man fitted FOR the position Of Presi-
ident, but from wha. we hava seen Of other
men, Mr.. SEYMOUR, certainly il, in our
opinion, the most available. As to Mr..
STANTON. Of Kentucky, named in the Rey-
isters article, We have nothing to say. This
man We scarcely know enough Of to venture
word pro or con. But as for the State of
Kentucky she stands end always stood uobly
to the work, covering herself with glory in
her late as well as former elections. During
tho whole war this State laLoyed for the
Union and the Constitution under very nd
verso circumstances, being situated among
the States in rebellion. A; no time did she
refuse to gil her quotas when the Govern.
mcnt made reGuisition upon her for troops,
or fail to give MD in every manner when re.
qnircd in support Of the Union, the Con
s.i:u,ion and the Laws. The following par.
agraphs arc taken from the Registers ar.i-
Gle:
"raoMAu Il. SEYMOUR. is cnc Of the
hest men Of the country. He is sound,
Constitutional Democrat and Statesman.
BY his efforts, more than by those Of any
other man, was the Democratic Party Of
Connecticut preserved and kept in condition
70 win the victory of 1867. In no State in
th, Union was the Party maintained in
soun Ter condition in the enuncation Of those
great and true principles which are boast
Of strength in themselves and always lead to
success. Even in 1853, when darkness
covered the whole country, the Republican
soldiers had to he furlcughed home and tie
Democratic soldiers kept in the field to pre-
vent Democratic success and tie election
Of THOMAS H,SEYMOUR, as Governor Of the
State. The canvass of the State had been
made and il was found that without the
above aid Ex.Gov Seymour election vas a
fxel fact b. handsome majority"
"He is not only civilian above reprcach.
and Statesmen Of comprehensive views
but he has also been q soldier and has reaped
laurels on the tented field. In the Mexican
War, he volunteered to fight the enemies OF
his country. and as Colonel Of his regiment,
he was one Of the best and brayest officers of
that war"
RICHARD H. STANTON, is parative,y
young man, but he is one Of the best men
in the country He is firm Democrat, Of
sound constitutional views and if nominated
and elected, will fill the position of the
Yica Presidency with honor to himself and
credit to the country. He is Kcntuchan
md has already made his mark, in that
State. As already said he is comparatively
ayoung man. The young Democracy ofthe
country would rally to his support with the
greatest enthusiasm and ardor. In his own
State Of Kentucky her gallant Democracy
would rally to his side with an enthusiasm
that would send thrill through the whole
country. and South and North the gallant
young Democracy would rally to the support
Of the Democratic Candidates for the Presi-
dency and Vice Presidency. .has would Sc
cure glorious triumph beyond all parad-
venture. RIcHEED II. STANTON, Of Ken.
tucky, therefore, would make a most suit.
able candidate for the Vice Presidency Of
the United Sta .es.
