DRIFT OF TIE PRESS.

Y Drych 1.-THE WirrOr1 OF UTICA NJ l., the
most widely circulated Of the three or -four Welsh news
papers printed in the United States ayors the Cncn-
nail ticket.
The Evening Register a heretofore lnde-
pendent journal published at OIL CITY, Penn comes out
in new dress and places the Buckalew ticket at the
head Of its columns IL will favor the Endorsement oI
Greeley and Brown at Baltimore.
Something should be done to The Phlddel
phia Press It's indiscreet utterances Of dangerous
truths are getting astonishingly frequent Here is
specimen: "We have not met me nher OF the Repub-
lcan party IN or out Of Office in Washington or else
where who is not agated by apprehensions OF defeat
The Sprin1feA Republican is woefully alarmed.
Aluding TO a charge OF the New-Yofk denomination
mouthpiece that if did not mind what 1t about
it would be classed by The TRIBUNE with the Grant or
eans It says: "The thought of il makes US shud-
der it, being Grant organ, 4he Republican must be-
come what The Times is'
While evidently preferring a straight Demo
cratic ticket The Eerark N. J) Register closes calm
and patriotic editorial upon the Baltimore Convention
with these manly Words "What best for the country
Will be best for us The conclusions at which the Con-
party at large the dictates OF political sagacy, and
It's action Will be ndorsed with unanlmy which VIII
be the earnest OF success"
The Terre- -Haute Gazette, Liberal Repub-
lcan newspaper places the ticket recently nominated
by the Democratic Convention at Indianapolis at the
head OF ts columns and pledges its warmest support
In giving its for its scton, The Gazette says the
fact that the Convention accepted the Cincinnati ticket
and patform was sufficient proof OF the desire Of the
Democracy for reform andnO Liberal Republican could
ask for In conclusion II says: I'VE more nIny
tban ever plant ourselves on the Cincinnati PLATFORM
and will act warmly and determinedy with all men
who in the future may think proper TO slaHd there
with US"
The Buffalo Courier has little faith in the pro-
posed conference the 2Oh resulting in another ticket
for Baltimore 70 indorse thinks it folly TO suppose
that the work Of hundred popular representatives
can be undone and done over again TO suit them and
their handful OF sympathzers IL is the dog Whlch must
wag the tai-not the tail the dog Besides the event.
up TO this point shows that even II the Convention OF
Cincinnati could be called again into session II coud
ready accepted the head OF great and growing pop
ular movement, regardless of party" ..-.-,z
The Chicago Times is exceedingly wtoth at
what it calls the "arsurdty" Of the Indiana Convention
1t SAYS the resolution "that the principles OF the Cnen
natl Convention, taken in connection with Mr. Greeleys
letter Of acceptance, constitute platform upon which
all the elements OF opposition to Grant can stand, IS
mere matter OF opinion, and asks this unanswerabie
tail leg viii make it leg II they DO not win they
not act more wisely 70 epuneate less and consider sta0
born facts more a. The headstrOng Indiana democracy
must be more cautious next time.
We find The Winona (Minn.) Republican giving
the sodest kind Of advice to the Democrats OF that
region. This paper not being yet eBancipated from
Renominaona Grantism, suggests 10 those Democrats
who are unsettled in their political ideas TO come up
like men and patriots and vote for Grant, Yet mas
this thing, 1--WE shall" says The Repibiear regard it
the next best thing they vii support 60 eGhg o hg1

as Republican, not rs Democrat, bit as one slnceieg
