The most pitiabls personal sight In this coun-
try, Ii that of Salmon p. Chase, flowing his

honorable, willing to apologize for, gloss over,
and explain away, all the great, manly efforts
Of his carcer,-bringing down his high Office
into the squabbles Of political prize ring,-all
for the poor compliment Of four rotes for the
Democratic nomination. In all the sad record
Of disappointed ambition, there Is none % hu.

mour's nomination, after his repeated declina-
ton, calls to mind Corwin's observation at the
nomination Of Polk. "Afer this no one is safe.
