It's not Those who Blow.

The New York World was like to
have been put an end to by the

keep up the fight. Commenting
upoh the recent elections, the World
s%touily and patrioticaiiy SAYS:
"The time has come for testing
the courage, cOnstancy, party
staunchness aud fidelity to associates.
or to express it all in oae word, the
manliness of all true Democrats.
This is no time for ANY Democrat,
least of all Democrats who accepted
Mr.. Greeley by c"mpulSiom of party
discipline. to finch. The Liberal
Republicans have acted towards us
since. the Baltimore convention with
sincerity and honor. Mr.. Greeley
did not make his western trip of his
WI voiitiou. but at the instance of
the Democratic National Committee.
1t is >cant and inadequate praise to
say that he acquitted himself with
faultlrS- prudence. Many Democrats
who supported him before from a
mere sense Of party obligation. have
supported him since from a new per-
crption of his intellectual Iualiiica-
tions. If his nomination at Balti-
more was q mistake. II was II mis-
take. not his. lie has borne himself

In lS49 he was elected to the L. :.
Senate, where he became the ac-
knowlcdgcd leader of his party. and
in the debate OIL the admission of
California he promulgated what
was known as his higher
law" doctrine. In his celebrated
Rochester speech in 1858. he de-
clared that there was IAN ire
pressiblc conflict between opposing

United States must become either
entirely slave or entirely free" Iii
