With referenceto supposed Southern
movement In behalf o. Gen. Hancock
for she Presidency, and To arecent letter
of Col. Forsythe, ofihe Mobile Register,
the Springfield Qll) Register, in along
and able article, makes an earnest APP
peal, from which we extract the follow
ing paragraph; eeNN e.
We hone the suicidal policy Of 1860
will not he repeated. Then the South
expecled efficient cooperation with a
sufficient minority Of the Democratic
marty in the North. How terribly these
homes were blasted is written in letters
of blood and Ere all over the land. lg-
noring the strength aud unity OF the
Democratic party, fatal disaster befel
Us. The great error was IN this hrst
misstep. Will not our friends profit by
experisncef Warned, then, will they
NOT with more attention permit us 10
raise the warning voice nowf As they
cannot assist us, will they not permit
us 10 win victory that shall restore TO
the South its former peace, prosperity
and happiness2 They ought 70 believe
that the Democracy Of the North are
able TO comprehend the crisis, and
earnest in their endeavors to accom-
plish victory, la Gods name let those
who are impotent for good, avoid HIM
dering our success
We do not believe there is reason for
alarm ON this subject. The man whom
the Democrats Of ths North wsuld nom
mate will never be opposed in conven'
ton by delegates from the Southern
States, and, lift were possible, could not
be SO with the appreciation of their
Southern constituents. As the destinies
of The whole country are in the hands OF
the North, and as the people Of the South
know the Democrats Of that section to be
the only true friends to constitutional
liberty, it is quite impossible that their
judgment and wishes should not be re-
spected. TIE Democrats Of the North
will determine the selection, which,
when made will be heartily aequieseed
in by all conservative Southern men.
