JAMES BUCHANAN was the first man who was
ever 90 hungry for the Presidency, that he sunk
his manhood and his individuality to secure It,
and HORACE GREELEY is the second; and these
two, We believe, are the only instances among the
numerous persous who have been anxious to reach
the White House.
JAMES BUCHANAN declared that he was merged
into the Democratic Platform, and was no longer
JAxys BUCHANAN, but the Platform. He re-
msiped in thsstate oftransmogrifca.ion through
ont his entire Administration, and it Is q matter
of history how dearly it cost the country Inc
leaders of the Democratic party conspired 10 de-
stroy the nation, and BUCHANAN never raised a
finger TO prevent it. They failed only because
they went to work too near the close OF his Ad-
minstration-had they begun year or SIX months
sooner, the fate of the country woaid nave Deeh
sealed.
We have another example oi 'ne omce-huhsry
trucker in HORACE GREELEY. He has been
writing mn the Tariff and certain other principles
for wears. as the only true policy Of the Govern
ment. vet TO secure a nomination from par
tvopposed to all his favoite measures, he consents
10 ;gnor. tbe,p-to sink them out Of sight during
the campaipn. and say nothing about them, leav
ing it to the people of the Congressional Districts;
and if n majority Of the Congressman enact laws
directly contrary to those only true principles, he
will approve them. At the same time, he knows
perfeetIy WELL that things will he SO skillfnlly
manipulated that the success of his Presidential
ticket will insnre the election of majority of
Congressmen opposed to all the principles he has
advocated for the past quarter of a century.
And if GREELEY would surrender to the enemies
in these matters, how wonld it he with other pet
measures of the Democratic rartyi 1t is we'll
known fact, that a majority of the Democratic
party, at least of those who control the party
management, and hold the offices, whatever they
may pretend or promise to the contrary, are in
favor of destroying the Fourteenth and Fifteenth
Amendments of the Constitution; of repudiating
the war debt of the United States, OF assnm-
ing the Confederate debt; of paying the South
for slaves emancipated; of paying Southern
claims for losses during the war; of allowing
rebels damages for being arrested and imprisoned
during the war, and Furnishing those under whose
authority these acts were committed; and nn-
merous measures of similar character. If any
or all of these measures should be adopted by the
Democratic Congress which would be drifted in
ON the "Liberal" food it is fair to presume that
President GREELEY would approve them.
These party machines are the worst of all things
in important Offices. They never rise above the
control of those who manipulate them.

but several years before his death. GREELEY at
taned his twenty first year, in 1882, and that was

GREELEY has it bad enough to do anything; but
this story is little doubtful. However, some

GREELEY AcCEPTs.-GREELEY has at length
written his letter of acceptance of his nomination
He says he was waiting to see whether the thing
would take, before accepting; but he thinks it is
all right, and he'll go it. The country was ex-
pecting some brilliant production from his pen,
when this document should appear-wherein the
country was badly fooled. The Committee, in no
.tifying him of his nomination, sent him copy of
the platform, and called his attention to it. GREE
LEY, in accepting sits down and copies this plat
form, and sends it back to the Committee, telling
them this is the Platform they adopted! This is
fully as brilliant any of his essays on agricul-
ture but it is tie and substance of his letter of
acceptance. No, we are mstaken-we Thought
SO old an editor would get off something original.
GREELEY remarks that, if elected, he shall
deavor to be President of the whole country, not
of party. This is original; we do not remem-
Der of fhaving ever before heard this idea expressed.
