will largely tend to bring about the aban.
document Of system, whereby the people
of America have so long been deprived Of
all real voice in their choice of Presidents.

Tho Standard thinks Greeley would not
he an eligible candidate we're it not for
his elcctionecring strength. He is as
homes, as a partisan can be, and OCCASION

his subordinatcs will be appointed from the
Tribune Office.
