Of, our preference ia for James Thompson,
but we would not press him merely because
he is of our own State. What Pennsylvanian
that witnessed the wretched figure presented
by her delegation to the New York Oonven-
tioD, in pressing the name of Asa Packer, but
blushed for his mother Common wealth Who
could hear the reasons urged in his favor by
the Philadelphia politicians on that occasion,
but, Peter-like, were ready to deny their
home and their parentage2 We are for
Judge Thompson, but for far better and
a far higher reason than that of his birth
and locality. We are for him, because under
all circumstances we think him the best fitted
man in the country for the post He is a
man OF the people-a graduate of the print
ing office. They have frequently made him
their representatives Harrisburg, at Wash
ington-and he always rose 10 the full mea-
sure of their most sanguine expectations. In
no public station has he proved q failure, and
all that he has occupied he has adorned
with graces honorable alike to himself and the
constituencies that trusted him with power.
AS Chief Justice of the State he has made
an imperishable record, that for all time will
hand his name down to posterity as one
OF the most just and able jurists whose
joint labors have given the Pennsylvania
Reports worldwide reputation. URcon-
nected with party or partisan politics and
eliques for the last fifteen years, he stands in
position to be fair and Just to all. Pure in
bis life and in his motives, patriotic in his
nature, generous in his impulses, and imbued
with manly detestation of the thieving that
is constantly insinuating itself into trusted
places to rob and plunder the people, we
know no one that would be more likely to
serve them efficiently in the high Office of
President
In presenting the name of Judge Thomp-
son for President, no unknown name is
offered. In every State in the Union it is
appreciated as the name of one who stands in
the front ranks of American statesmen-of
one who has been tried and never been found
wanting either in ability, industry or courage
of one competent to the place from his
training, his habits, his purity, and his high
mental powers.
The Democrats want no military clap-trap
in their next nominees. Ths people are
sickening of such trash The administration
of General Grant has about cured them of
the idiosyncrasy that favors drums and gun
powder. The sending of armed troops to
overawe the people In the exercise of their
elective rights has startled many aud dis
gusted oil, and the people now
want a man for President who under
stands somewhat of the Constitution
of his country, and who, when he takes the
Inauguration oath ''to preserve, protect, and
defend" it. has some idea of the force
of the solemn obligation taken upon him.
self. In Judge Thompson is presented the
man for the occasional man who bows before
the majesty of the law, of matured Judgment
and experience, unconnected with cliques, no
enemies to punish or friends to reward, and
who can enter upon the duties of office with
clean hands and pure purposes.

AMERICA AND ENGLAND.

From the ~ Y Times.
We published in a recent number very
fair and impartial review of the questions in
dispute between England and the United
States, by Lord Hobart If all Englishmen
were disposed to consider the differences
between the two nations in his spirit, those
differences would soon be settled in reason
able manner. Lord Hobart pays the highest
tribute to the tenacity of our people in the
great struggle, and to their wise and uu-
revengeful spirit after victory; and rightly
urges that a nation which has shown itself
capable of such heroic sacrifices, and such
great self-restraint, must have some reason
able ground for it's complaints against the
action of Great Britain in the civil war, and
that, at all events, we are under the profound
impression (possibly mistaken one) that we
have been unjustly treated by that power.
Such feeling on the part of such people,
he claims, deserves respectful consideration,
and reIaers the demand for arbitration, eTen

sacrifice his dearly-bought advantages on

publican party have ever intimated that
