Our cotemporary of the New York Day
Bool, sterling Democratic sheet, gives us
the following warnings:
1--WE learn that the entire National Bank
raha', body Of men numbering perhaps
5000 representing eco paper money inS'i
tutions, and embracing abOnt all the bond
hnlders Of the United States, big and little,
intend 10 raise the SUN Of 81 600 from
each bank. for the purpose OF defeating any
Democratic candidate that may be puS up,
whether he advocates the payment OF the
National debt in parer or not. The sum
total thus raised will reach 81 600, and,
it is said, will lay out Mr. Pendleton cold,
or any other man like him, who undertakes
Ia make platform with a paper payment
of the debt in it. Perhaps Mr.. Pendlc-
toms friends can be purchased up or scared
off Perhaps the honest Democracy OF the
country can be bought. Perhaps bargain
aul sale is to he as active in the Democrat
ic Convention of July as it is at all the
gatherings of the uongrel party: but we
opine not The b0udhnlders will find Their

| NJ man, il these unScrupulous political
| traders can have their own way about 1t, Is
! to receive that nomination who will not sell
! himself cut AMI out to this crew; and so
venai end corrupt are these men, that, IN
| order to control the poll destlnics Of
| this State, they would sell out to Grant and
| Colfax Tomorrow. The delegates to the
| Democratic Convention Of July must come
| here prepared to combat an amount OF po>
litical corruption in their own ranks, which
| has never been exceeded in the blackeSt
period of the dominant party. The lnta-
NOUS New York ring work under the Sc
cret counterSign of rule or RUM and II
will require all the virtue and | the patrl,
otism which the Democratic party ever
brought nut in its palmiest days to prevent
political fraud from being cdncoced and
fostcd upon the Democratic voters for then
suffraces. We warn the Western delegates
that they must come here with the spirit Of
Spartans, and to yield to nothing tha; theil
best and honest convictions tell them is moi
the free, untrammeled, unpurchasei ex-
preston of the convention.
The above IS timely article, which Ii
worth perusal both by the delegates and by
the people. The delegates from the Yves
are either instructed to vote for or the pee
pie at home expressed preference for
Mr.. Pendleton. The delegates are no
7e0d7M bound to carry out this instruction
or preference. They arc no more bound
than Presidential electors are to indicate
the will of the people. But, at the SAM
time. they are hound in honor and by ever.
consideration that can accompany trust o
preat importance. The delegate who vii
violate his instructions, who will dlsobe.
the EXPRESSED preference OF his consutu
ents, will be a disgraced and dishonore'
man in all time to come. No considela
ton that he can receive. either in wealth o
in nominal honor, will compensate Tor hl
perflv. Wherever he goes, he Will b
t.marknd and Stunned as leper, in whom
no political or social confidence can be 2iac
: ed. Even those who have protit"d by MI
treason will despise him. The motives TO
) his betrayal Of popular trust will be so al
parert as to need no explanation. We ca
: not believe that however great may re to
monetary temptaton, that any Of the Yves
tern delegates will have the disposition t
embrace IT, It would turn to dust an
ashes in their hands. Bat we have to
, much confidence N their honor and lnteG
ritz to suppose that for one moment the

I never show himself among his constlt'
