They All Go the Same Way.

See the summary of States that are this
week gone for the Cincinnati platform and
nominees. We elsewhere call attention to the
action of Maine and Texas, which took place
in both States on the same day. We may
cite Maryland, OH the Atlantic, and Califor'
nia, on the Pacific, as another example OF
action in opposite extremes of the Union
Thus we have the borders. north and south,
east and west, uniting with entire harmony
upon the Cincinnati platform and ticket
They are adapted to all sections, and the op.
position everywhere puts faith in them as the
only way to get out of the wilderness. The
general sentiment to the Liberal movement is
happily expressed by General KEMpER at
"ailords us the only opportunity i've have
chad since the close of the war for really
"eohiing back into the Union; and coming
"back not only. with unqucstioncd good
"faith, but with ubliflea brows and ulll-
diminished scli-rcspcct and honor"

Greeley is Running I'm Spite Of the
NAMsS,ailcFS.


From Brooks's New York Express De,nocrau.
A morning journal, anti Greeley, has quoted
and is yet quoting. many, nay, very many,
Democratic journals that oppose 'Grccle1's
nomination at Baltimore; bnt the complcrs
thereof do not seem to comprehend this fact,
that Greeley is running in spite of the news
papers, us well us the politicians. All, or
nearly all, the old Republican politicians in
Cincinnati opposed Greeley, and were for
Adams and others but out from the hopper,
enthusiastically, too, came Horace Greeley.
The fact is, the people have got it into their
heads that Greeley is their man, their candi-
dtc; and the opposition of the newspapers,
and of some public, man; too, but stimulates
their zeal. Onte III every ten or twenty
yeats the people break loose ON the Presi-
dency, and they are running loose now and
we do not see how we can make them, either
rs Democrats or Republicans, run with "thc
machine" unless " the machine" runs with
them. The more time Democrats baye had
to think Of Greeley; the iiiorG they are rum
ming Tor him, us we see and hear from all the
Democratic conventions, save that in little
Delaware. 1t is not only spontaneous out
burst, as in Tennessee and New York, but II
conclusioll--a loriisll conclus!on--As III Tn.
diana, Iowa, Kansas, Wisconsin, Missouri !;
nay, everywhere, except Delaware.

,nan;m;ty In favor Of the Liberal ticket

onposed 10 the presens'Administr'tion anu
;ts .vr,nnous policy, without dissenting
voice. ~ FIR as we hear, approved OF The
Cincinnati platform aud nominees decidedly
and heartily. -.
II is a good omen for the Liberal cause
that these two border States should u'"S
concur. They met on the same aaS' an"
the same spirit animated them both'
By the wonderful power OF inc te'es'al"'
we knew the day after 1t occurred the act'0''
Of these two extreme States, ana we cihho'
I'M, admire the exact harmony of their action.
Each moving at the same time, not knowing
,,,a, the other was doing, and each ADOPT
;nr that noble platform Of the Cincinnati
Convention, which is broaa enough Tor all
tho States and the sections and all the people
TO stand upon-that platform which lays
down the true principles Of repuhlicanlsm
and points out the true way to The re5tSra-
ton of the peace and security OF the people
and constitutional government. fecltng thc
same WEAKNESS of misrule and sectona! am
mositics and discord, these people OF Blame
and Texas, at the same instant, with Hdof
and hope, adopt the very same means 'o'
relief 10 themselves and to the milton IRON
the things Of which they have become SO
weary, and for the restoration of the brighter
and happier and more harmonious days
along with that public liberty and public
honesty which war and its passions have
banished from the land.
IL is a happy omen, we repeat, to see SUCH
harmony in the action of these far apart
States on the same day. Surely that plan
OF restoration which is thus approved 10y
communities dwelling so far apart, sur
rounded by scenes so widely contrasicd
and by temperatures so different, and pur
suing occupations so distinct as theirs arc
surely, we repeat, the plan for kindiinS the
fires Of public devotion anew and reVvinS
i'm all hearts the sentiment of nationally ana
brotherhood, adopted thus simultaneously
by these people, must commend itself to the
whole nation. There could be no better
proof that the plan itself ignores all section
al;sm and removes every barrier to the re-
newal of kindly relations between oil parts
of this vast country.
Then many cheers for Maine and Texas.
The vast intermediate populations between
them cannot fail to construc alright the noble
impulses they hive shown, and will be sure
to gather added strength and resolution in
maintaining the Liberal platform and nomi-
noes, which at present afford the only ground
of hope for the recovery of personal liberty,
State equality, and constitutional govern
