Il ton.

The Morale of the Rochester COnven.
Perhaps no Democratic State Convention
oer assembled in this State in which there
we're so few of the positive elements of the
fierce democracie' introduced rs that which
Gosed its sittings at Rochester on Thursday
ant. But few Of the old party leaders were
present. although their fingers might have
bsen detected in manipulating the political
wres if one had given particular attention to
tfe private caucusing usual on such occasions.
Tiere were delegates outspoken enough in the
caller stages of meeting in favor of the fullest
Endorsement of Mr.. Greeley as the democratic
caldidate for the Presidency. On the other
hand there were delegates equally outspoken
i'm opposition to MIR. Greeley's endorsement
Th result was q compromise, in which the
band of Ex-Governor Seymour, and, perhaps
THAI Of Governor Hoffman, was pretty plainly
Seen, to the effect that the New York democracy,
while they accepted the platform of the liberal
republicans, would prefer to await the action Of
The DEMOCRATIC National Convention before ex-
pressing their preference for any particular man
10 represent that platform. The long-headed
men Of the democratic party in this State have
two reasons for coming to this decision. One is
That they desire to ascertain what amount Of
strength Mr.. Greeley can exhibit and COM
manl through the medium of mass meetings,
ratification meetings. the newspaper press and
The open expression of prominent and influen-
kial members Of the republican party in his
Favor before they commit themselves or recon-
mend the democratic masses to commit them
selves to entire acqliescence in his nomina-
Gon. The second reason, no doubt, is appa-
rent to every politician, and TINT is, what
share in the federal spoils shall be allotted to
the democrats in case they shall aid in the
elevation of Mr. Greeley to the Presidential
chair 1t is for these reasons perhaps, more
than any other, that the Rochester Convention
declined avowing its preference for Mr.. Greeley
and recommending his name for the favora-
BILE consideration Of the democratic delegates
who will assemble in Baltimore on the 9th Of
July next. In the meantime the interim is
long enough for full and free canvassng Of
the whole subject among those particularly in
terostel Yet it cannot be fairly gainsaid that
the mtrals Of the assemblage at Rochester on
THURSDAY was not in favor Of Mr. Greeley

and two pairs came 20 his share.
