FROM INDIANA.

ID; W. Voorhees,. TO the Rescue-A National
Democratic Convention, n Good READY, and
New Departure.
Terra Hame, Nov. 27.-Hon. Daniel
W. Voorhees,, in q card published in the
Journal of this city, proposes an important
Democratic movement. He saws: 81
keenly appreciate the Importance of an
authoritative expression OF the principles
which are to guide us in the future as in
the past. 1t should be made at an early
date in order that organization shall be per-
iectcd and confluence restored by the time
the approaching campaign is upon us.
This, however, should be the work of q
national convention, embracing delegates
from all the States. am in favor of CALI
ing such convention, at some centeral
ponlt IN the West, on day not later than
the 22d OF February next. The call should
be issued by national executive committee.
and delegates should be appointed by State
and district conventions. . ~
The business of this body should be TO
carefully and patiently weigh all the views
lald before 1t; to agree upon and publish
clear and definite declaration of principles
upon all matters affecting the political well
fare of the people and safety of our free
institutions. This being done, it should
adjourn to day fixed for the nomination
OF candidate for the Presidency. In the
meantime the people of the State can dis
ccuss and approve or disapprove of what
has been done. =
ut would be the duty of all Democrats
taking part in politics, to submit to the
voice OF the majority. If there are such
as prefer their own convictions, even to the
platform of National Convention. thew
can step aside in quiet, without embarrass-
ing anybody else. Let us, however. have
political, as well as personal harmony.
Success is within our reach. IF the entire
Democratic vote can be consolidated. in
splred with enthusiasm, and brought to the
polls, General Grant cannot be reelected.
1t was the voters in our party that staid |
at home on the day of the late elections
which wrought such widespread defeat.
There Is no increase Of the Republican |
vote.
VI make the above suggestion knowing
hat it is entirely practical, and that t |
meets an urgent demand OF the present |
,rsis. | shall respectfully urge It upon |
ne National Executive Committee, and ask |
Or it, the favorable consideration of con-
ervatlve men everywhere"
