Since the late elections the Democratic
managers have been suffering from that
malady which, when it affects horses, is
known as ''the blind staggers." Such
grouping about in utter darkness, grasping
after shadows, stumbling over rocks and
butting against stone walls we have never
witnessed. All unity of purpose and con-
cert of action seem to have departed. There
comes wall of lamentation from the Bour-
bons, "We told you so /; you have made
us follow after strange gods ; make haste
to repent of the folly you have wrought,
and give us man who will lead us IN the
old paths" And these political Jeremiahs
are answered with the accusation that they
have brought ruin on themselves by their
stubborn refusal to acknowledge existing
facts-their persistent fighting against the
inevitable, and their tacit endorsement of
the Ku-Klux raids.
Some of the party organs demand a
Democratic candidate with Republican
principles others demand Republican
candidate with Democratic principles; but
by far the larger number cry out for q can
didate with no principles at all, "Opposi-
ton to Grant, is the platform proposed by
one set of managers, while another set con-
tend that Opposition to Radicalism" would
more nearly express the principles Of the
new party. But then there are something
like a half million of Radicals to be won
over before success can be hoped for, and
it would not do to go into the canvass with
battle-cry which would repel the men
whose assistance is so anxiously de-
sired. Mr.. Coltax has been sug-
gested as the probable candidate for
the Presidency ian honor which he will
assuredly decline), and he certainly consid-
ers himself tolerably well-defised Radical.
MIR. Sun ner has been named as Secretary
of State, and it is not likely that he would
fight under banner whose motto was a
sneer at Radicalism. Mr.. Trumbull has
been something of Radical in his time, as
has also Mr.. Gratz Brown, and we do not
think that either of them would disown the
name for the sake of a Presidential nominal
ton. Mr.. Greeley Whose chances are Sc
riously canvassed), great as his ambition,
would spurn the nomination if he were
asked to stand upon platform so insulting
to his cherished convictions. We make no
mention of Groesbeck, and Hoffman, and
Hancock, because each of them can lay
some claim to Democratic antecedents, and
not corporal's guard of Republicans could
be induced to vote for any one of the three.
Senator Schurz, being foreigner, is not
eligible, and therefore his nomination is out
of the question. Baltimore American.

KISSING ON THE SLY.


I've thought the matter over
And what l think is this,
There are very few, if any
Things, much sweeter than Kiss.
Especially when parents
Or watchful eyes are nigh,
What can be any sweeter
Than kissing on the sly
Some love to walk by moonlight,
Some OH the lake to glide,
And some to hold the ribbons
With dear ones by their side
But know what is better
All, yes indeed do
To ali of these, what prefer,
Is kissing on the sly.
A maid may look demure,
As though she didn't know
OF such u thing as kissing,
Or think of doing so,
OF course all this is proper
When anybodys by,
But-watch your opportunity
And kiss her on the sly
