ern Democracy would not accept the nOmina-
ton of Chase, nor would they vote for him II
nominated. If Chase had more strength, they
might be induced to compromise on Seymour;
but as it is, they will doubtless enter the Con-
vention with strong determination to nOml-
nate Pendleton. 1t is q consolation to know
that their nomination is of no National cOnse-
quence, as it carries with it no reasonable hope
of success But as Indicative Of the shifting
phases of opinion and of the process of re-
union and determination between the Northern
Democrats and their old allies the Rebels, it
will be of interest to all. This is the first
Democratic National Convention held since
jeff. Davis and his cohorts split the party at
Charleston, in 1860, in which the Southern
slave-driving Democracy of old are repre-
sented. In this Convention will meet
the fiery Wade Hampton of the Black
Horse Cavalry, and Peter B. Sweeney,
Grand Sachem of Tammany, Gen. N. b. Forrest
the hero of the Massacre Of Fort Pillow, and e..
Chauncey Burr one of the heroes of the New
York riots The Conservative Generals whose
names have been paraded as those of men who
won distinction in the war for the Union, are
expected to sit down beside Gen. Beauregard
of Louisiana, Gen. Bonham, Gen. Ransom, Gen.
Hoke of North Carolina, Garland of Arkansas,
Buckner of Kentucky, and Hill of Georgia,
whose only distinction was won in the Rebel
lion, and both are desired to vote for candl-
date whose chief recommendation is that he
never voted dollar for one side or dared to
say word for the other, but, living amid the
greatest events of history, proved himself void
of either courage or capacity to take part in
them 1t is not for us to solve the Democratic
dilemma. We would be glad to see that party
take an advanced position, and nominate as a
candidate some man who is both patriot and
a statesman, even though they should thereby
give the Republican ticket a closer and warmer
contest. But If they prefer the opposite course,
so much the lighter must be our labors and the
larger our majority.
New-York tribune., 1868-07-04
THE DEMOCRATIC DILEMMA.

Political parties have frequently met in con-
ventiOn feeling the necessity of waving indi-
vidual preferences for men in order Ito save
some vital principle. At other times they have
been willing to sacrifice a principle to secure
the success of some favorite leader, or to sac
rifice both leader and principle TO a prejudice.
But the present dilemma of the Democratic
party is that though freely disposed to sacri-
fee either its principles To its candidates. or its
candidates to its principles, or both its prin-
ciples and candidates to its prejudces, or all
three to its success, it seems to have neither
prejudices, principles, nor candidates that are
worth the sacrifice required to save them. The
serious question arises what party which
feels called upon to sacrifice its candidates,
principles and prejudces is to fight for in its
campaign or TO win by its victory.
If it nominate Chase it bows the knee to uni
versal suffrage and political and social equality
of the races. If it nominate Pendleton it
browns by the weight of the same burden
which dragged it to the bottom four years ago.
The nomination of Pendleton presents 25O,OOO
votes to Grant. To compromise on Sey-
mour is to accept candidate whose whole
policy is to reverse Reconstruction, which
is irreyersbe. Seymour opposes reputation.
Pendleton advocates it. Chase believes in pay
ing the National debt in gold and consummating
Reconstruction on the basis of equal rights for
black and white, and yet convention of ex-
Rebels, Copperheads, and Repudiationists, are
SO hard pressed for candidate that stands
some chance of winning, as to seriously propose
to nominate him. In this dilemma large num-
Der Of the managers of the Democratic party,
especially those representing New York and the
East, will attempt to frame n platform that
shall ignore the Rebellion and the War for the
Union, forget Slavery, omit any mention of
Andrew Johnson, be silent about the ancient
doctrines of State Rights, avoid such denuncia-
tiOns of Universal Suffrage as would ALLEVIATE
the colOred vote, make no promises as to over
turning Reconstruction or repudiating the Ma
tional debt, lest capitalists should take alarm,
and, in short, keep very shady, and lie very
low generally. The candidate of this element,
almost of necessity, will be Seymour. Sympa-
thy with depravity amounts, in him, to a
religious passion; meanness, with him, rises to
the hight of holy fervor. Naturally, there
fore, he is the standard bearer to lead the
tmd remnants of the once unterrifed DemOc-
racy to victory, if cowardice is to be the rally
ing cry and basis of union.
Opposed to these are tho bold and reckless
Democracy of the West, of whom Brick
Pomeroy, Vallandigham, and Pendleton
are the fair exponents. During the
war they meant peace. Now they mean a
White Mans Government. or another war.
Their politicians have less skill and cunning,
but what they lack in these respects they
make up in audacity dash and determination.

In the Fall of ls37-years before the establishment
of THE TMBUNE-the October elections having de-
veloped popular uprising against the Jackson-Van
Buren, dynasty which had for ten years seemed in
vincble-I was moved to issue POLITICAL
REGISTER for 1888, intended manly to embody the
Election returns of that year. and compare them
with those of some preceding year. The reception OF
that little annual such to justify its reproduc
ton for each succeeding year-that of 1912 only ex-
cepted-unt the issue for 1858 will complete series
of thirty Annual Registers of Election Returns, with
other useful political and statistical matter afforded
for tre to each reader, though the preparation OK
each issue now involves a total cost OF more than
$1,000. This annual has been known successiyely as
THE POLITICIANS REGISTER, HIG ALMANAC.
and TRIBUNE ALMANAC under which last name
il has been issued for several years past The sereo
type plates of the earlier issues having been con-
sumed in the fire which destroyed The Tribune Build
inc in 1915 il has for some years past been impossible
70 procure full sets of the work at any rate and the
imperfect sets from time TO time thrown upon the
market have commanded fabulous prices.
At last the new art of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
as yet in its infancy, but giving promise OF great re-
suits in the future by means disant-has rendered
it possible to reproduce the old issues at moderate
cost; and it was resolved that limited NUMBER oi
full sets of the workat least so far as its contents
were not ephemeral-should be photo-lithographea

herewith presented is the fruit. AS it is who.y
unique and of great interest to historians ana po'

On the Pacific coast of Mexi,o serious diff

authorities and the captain of an English
vessel. The captain threatened to lombard the
City of Mazatlan, but, owing to the represen-

countries, fortunately did not carry out his
threat. If the report as published is substan-
TALLY correct, the English captain was guilty
of most overbearing conduct.

OUR ELECTORAL TICKET.

The Republicans of this State meet by dele
gates at Syracuse on Wednesday next to
nominate Presidential Electors and q State
Ticket for the canvass now opening. So far
as we have heard there is no concentration
of sentiment on candidates for State officers;
but the delegates will meet entirely uncom-
mitted and confer freely and fully before de-
Gliding Oh any name. And this, we judge, is
best. Let us have the very strongest man in
the State for Governor and the next best for
Lieutenant Governor.
As to Presidential Electors, we venture to
suggest departure from the old routine of
referring the choice of one Elector to the
delegates from each Congress district. The
Electors represent no local interest and per-
form no local duties Each of them is chosen
by and acts for the whole people of our State
then why not nominate as well as choose them
by General Tickets We could hardly fail to
have men better known to and esteemed by
the Republicans of the whole State if our
ticket were nominated as a whole, without ref
erence to the "shrieks of locality" Here are
few of the many good names from which
thirty-three Electors nominated by General
Ticket would naturally be selected:

The San Andreas Register is to be remov-
ed to San Diego. The last number which
will be published at San Andreas. was issu-
ed on Saturday the 10Th. "Jeff," in his
valedictory is not very complimentary to the
town in which he has resided SO long. In
conclusion he says:
We have known San Andreas in the hey
day of its prosperity, and are tolerably ia
miliar with it now. when its greatness has
departed. We have formed associations here
among them the order of E. c. V.-from
which it is hard to dissever our connection
we have contracted friendships which only
death may part. But the whaling interest
Of Southern California invites us. The
aboriginal inhabitants of San Diego county
call aloud to Us. They need regeneration.
We go to perform the work. Farewell.
We hope that Mr.. Gatewood will succeed
it "regenerating" the San Diegoites, and
that the renovating process may prove prof
table. He has the ability to get up good
paper, and we have no doubt but that the
Register, as soon as it takes root in the new
soil to which it is to be transplanted. will
flourish like green bay tree. But "Jeff, y
that whaling interest smells fshy. We
don't believe you are lucky enough to "strike

sons who have been taking the Register, that
