saw that the Democratic party should
hold no national convention, present
no candidate for the Presidency at the
approaching election.
TO hold national convention and

my opinion. defeat the only hope of
dsliverance from the oppressive rule of
the Grant dynasty.
The true policy of the party is to or
canize thoroughly throughout each
State, county and district, and hold it.
self in position to act as unit, and as
unit give its entire and undivided
strength to the support Of the ticket
nominated at Cincinnati.
Tn the selection of the nominees of
the Cincinnati Convention the Democ-
racy will, of course, have no voice; if
we had, I should greatly prefer b.
Gratz Brown. of Missouri. But not
withstandine this decided preference
for Brown, am prepared to support,
with earnestness and zeal, any one of
the distinguished gentlemen who are
prominently spoken of in that Con-
vention as against the Grant ticket.
With . Democratic ticket we cannot
succeed in this contest. but with the
undivided support of the Democratic
party, the Liberal Republicans not
only can, but will succeed, and their
success secures. to 10th States and cit
liens, much higher degree of protec-
ton to rights, sacred and vitality i'm
portant TO them, than they have
known, or can ever know, under the
administration of the Grant party.
For our own and the country's good,
let us unite, and as one man give our
whole strength to the support of the
Liberal Republican ticket, and there
by enable them TO hurl from power the
usurpers and plunderers, under whose
misrule the country has suffered so
seriously for the last four years.
Give us Brown, and success is GER

nomination they may make.

NEW YoRK. MAY 1.-THE Tribur

New YORK, May 1.-THE Tribune
tomorrow publishes the following
card:
The Tribune has ceased to be a
party organ, but the unexpected nom
nation of its editor at Cincinnati
seems to involve it ina new embarrass-
ment. All must be aware that the po-
sition Of a journalist who is at the
same time a candidate, is at best irk-
some and difficult; that he is fettercd
in action and restrained in criticism
by the knowledge that whatever he
may say or do is closely scanned by
thousands eager to find IN it what may
be SO interpreted so as to perplex those
who are supporting him as a candidate,
and to whom his shacklcd condition
will not permit him to be serviceablc.
The undersigned therefore withdraws
absolutely from the conduct of the
Tribune, and will henceforth, until
further notice, exercise no control or
supervision over its columns.

FOR GOVERNOR,
JOHN q. BROWN.
FOR CONGRESS-:
HON. H.. II. THOMAS.

WE do not propose to place the
Cincinnati ticket at the head ofourcol-
umns until the political status of the
country ia more clearly defined. There
are two general Conventions yet to be
hcld-and the action of the Labor
Reform party is to be revived or rcpu-
dated, and not knowing what new
combinations may be formed, or what
results may follow the present com
motion in the political elements, we
prefer to leave ourselves free to choose
position yet to be indicated, perhaps,
by future developments. Were it def
initely known that the contest is to be
between Greedy and Grant, our choice
would be fixed unalterably, but it is
Ear from being certain that such will
be the case. The Philadelphia Con-
vention, in order to avoid defeat and
to preserve the unity of the Radical
party, may endorse the Cincinnati
aominees and, in that event, the Dem
ocrats must vote with the Radicals, or
nominate a ticket of their own. This
supposition, however improbable, is
by no means impossible of realiza-
ton.
If, on the other hand, the Demo
Gratis nominate u ticket, it is among
the probabilities that Greeley will
Misunderstanding the field to Grant
rather than incur the risk of Dem
Ocratic ascendancy in the general Gov
crnmcnt-indeed it is already asserted
that he will do so. In view Of the
possible complications that may grow
ont of the Vaccinations of scheming
politicians, a on-committal policy, if
not the true one, can do no harm du-
ring the short time in which current
events will define the positions of par
ties and give shape to the canvass.
In addition to the reasons already
given, we think it impolitic in the
South, to be too eager in its endorse
mcnt of Greeley lest it may preju-
dice him in the opinion of those pure
northern patriots whose antipathy to
the South is the alpha and omega OF
their political creed-the measure of
their patriotism and craftsmanship
\ quiet, but determined effort in be-
half of the Liberal ticket-provided
nothing occurs to force n change OF
programme-is the true policy of the
South, and the more quiet, the more
effective.

IT seems that Hendricks, of lndi-

ate Greeley. If the military opprcs-
sion TO which southern democrats have
So'long been subjected; if the politi-
cal vampires that have so long been

stroy the last vcstage of popular gov
