The dismembstneus Of this party,
now IN pregrssa, Is but its renovation
and reorganization. Looping itself Of
its weaknes of disrepute .. the South,
and Of It's corruption, this party is ally
ing % itaaff the anergies OF Southern in
telligence and virtue, which has been
dormant since the war, and stripped of
theae weaksesses and arrayed in the
strength Of its new materia; and ele-
asnts, Ills ptspAring 70 meet the new
quaations that win arise from the change
that is own victories have produced.
The Democratic party, unless reorgan-
izsa uponth basis Of these established
facts can mover relipe America.
If orgaaized upon this basis, it is a
nss party with an old name, and an un-
fortunate though hsorite name.
Indeed, it ombodios in itself, the very
priReipleg, and adopts ahe rEms facts as
aldsa, which the Conservative and new
element sot the Republican party en-
bodies and adopts IN its reorganization
and a. its basis.
0ur aavise 70 the people Of the State
is 70 Hsisethe petty prejudice to nams,
and 70 accept the facts achieved by the
Republican party; 70 seosganiae beneath
ita new and conservative senoyation and

If seems aa though thie were the last
cAancs les tothe sonlhern people to
identify themselves With the advance
