THE POSITION OF THE DEMOCRACY.

After careful examination of our eX-
changes, we are led to repeat what we
have heretofore said-that the situation of
the Democracy is far more difficult now
than before the Cincinnati nominees were
announced. 1t is evident from the opin-
ions of the Democratic press and leaders
that the party could not be brought tosup-
port Greeley and Brown with harmony.
It would demoralize the party to attempt
to force upon it such ticket. We are
confident, therefore, that straight Demo-
cratic ticket will be put into the field.
But so far as Republicans are concerned it
seems to us it matters little whether Demo-
Gratis make a nomination or not. If they
attempt to support Greeley, their party
will be divided and demoralized in the
Northern States at least, so that as many
Democrats will either fail to vote at all, or
vote for Grant, as there will be Republic
cans to vote for Greeley.
On the other hand, if the Democrats
make nomination. Mr.. Greeley must
withdraw and leave the Philadelphia NOM
inee a clear track. He has so repeatedly
stated in the Tribune that in case Demo-
cratic ticket was put forth, the Cincinnati
nominee would be compelled to withdraw,
that he could not refuse to do so in such
contingency, now that he is the nominee.
In either event we see but little encourage
ment for the Democracy.

The zeal of the Press and Herald for
Greeley is remarkable. It is so great, that
it suppressed on Sunday morning the tele-
graphic press advices from Cincinnati, Civ
ing an account of the disgust felt for the
nominations by such liberals as Judge
Stanley Mathews, Judge Brinkerhoff,
Judge Hoadley and Gen. Burnett. Is it
afraid to have its readers know the truth {?
Why did it suppress the news Was it
afraid the Ohio bolt would influence the
county Democratic meetings held Mon
day? If SO, it was very foolish, for the
CHRONICLE reaches every county and the
demand for Sundays paper was unusual.
The people want the ne1cS and the paper
that suppresses dispatches, and shapes
news to suit its own policy is very foolish.

THE zeal of the Press and Herald for
Greeley is SO great that it suppresses dis
patches giving news of the disgust of the
honest liberals for the shameless trade by
which Frank Blair brought about the
Greeley and Brown ticket. But the most
wonderful thing about it is, that this zeal
all came after the nomination. One ofthe
t,co proprietors of the paper agas IN Ctnciya-
natl during the convention 10orEiRg hard
for the nomination of adams. No wonder
Adams was defeated.

The Shelby county Democracy are the
first to speak on the Greeley Barter Brown
ticket. In their County Convention last
Saturday a resolution was introduced in
structing their delegates to Nashville to
oppose nominating an electoral ticket.
This was considereda tacit endorsement of
the Dolly Warden ticket, and was prompt

HYPOCRISY OF THE so-CALLED REFORM
MOVEMENT

When the so-called Reform movement
was first agitated, many good men were
no doubt allowed by its high sounding
pretensiOns into open opposition to the
present National Administration. But
now the movement is stripped of its mask
and every one can see unblushing cOrrup-
ton standing out prominently in all its
naked deformity. If anything were
wanting to confirm honest men in their
opinion of its hypocrisy and to make it
more loathsome and detestable i'll their
estimation, the disgraceful scramble in
which its leaders participated at Cincin-
natl will dispel every remaining doubt on
the subject. We have seen that not only
disreputabIe politicians, such as Mcclure,
of Pennsylvania; Grosvenor, of Missouri;
Scovill, of New Jersey, or Warmoth, OF
Louisiana, have entered into open, shame
less bargain and sale of principles and
men, but We behold the disgusting spec
tacle of two members of the Supreme
Bench descending in the name of reform
to the dirty cess-pool of partisan politics,
and openly bidding for the Presidential
nomination.
It now seems pretty certain, that the
little squad of vagabonds who assembled
at Columbus few weeks ago, and SLAM
dered the workingmen of America by as
suming to act for them, were there in the
interest of Judge Davis for the Presidency,
if thew were not his hirelings--acting for
pay. 1t was openly charged by some of
the leading Liberal Republican papers,
during the late Convention, that hundreds
Of men were there in his interest their ex-
penses being betrayed by him, with the
understanding that they should labor for
his nomination.
Judge Chase, with want of discretion
which would have been discreditable in a
schoolboy, wrote number Of foolish, some
of them sentimental letters, hoping to
