Virginia; eX-President Jefferson Da-
Wis and q few others Of lesser note
should be in Richmond at one and the

The Springfield Republican is con-
siderabIv mixed about Vallandig-
hams new platform. It thinks it
either threatens the division and dis
solution Of the Democratic party or
the overthrow OF the Republican par

The New Orleans Bee says that it is

structiup the Democratic platform to

Northern States; that the Southern
Democrats must be consulted in the

understood as accepting the situation.

The New Orleans Picugt1s nOmin-
ates Peter B. Sweeny as the Demo-
cratic candidate for the Presidency.
The Re5uJlicCu, OF the same city, in
r-markiug upon the point, says 1t Is

John Quincy Adams, several times
Democratic candidate Tor Governor
Of Massschusetts has written another
letter Ou the True Course Of the
Democracy" He says there is moth

with the happiness, welfare and lib

The Steubenville (Ohio) Herald
thinks that 50 confusion Of tongues
and babel of voices Of dissent and
condemnation viii greet the eXtraOr-
binary and unlOOked-fOr change Of
principle as exhibited in Nallau-
digham's new departure. A cOnfu-
zf0n Of tongues is nothing remarka-
ole among politicians, for ever since
me time Of the Tower Of Babel there
has been more or less squabbling
among political "bricks."

Pennsylvania. Ia noticing this the
PHILADELPHIA Press writes: "NOW let

The Lebanon (Pa.) Courier, refer
ring 10 Governor Geary and the prob
abilities OF his receiving the Demo

fhst Gaary's whole history shows that
nv Unborn principle he cannot be in
af8Iiqtion with the Democracy. When

rigr. That the Democrats can select for
President. is General Hancock. Com

AIr. VaIlaudigham IS not likely TO
be very successful as leader OF the
Democratic ''neW departure. The
Boston Post and the Louisville C0ur-
tsr-JObTUOL approve his course; but the
Cincinnati EHgUirer IS lukeWaru, and
the ST. Louis republican. the ablest
Democratic paper west of the Missis-
siDni- plainly iutmates that Mr.. Val
Isndigham Is not the man whom the
Dam0erets need for q leader. The
