The Strongest Ticket.

The strongest Ticket.

telegraphs to his journal:
"The Democrats are much more cir
cumspect in their utterances than thoy
were when the news of Grecley's success
was received. 1t is seldom that one can
be found to declare positively that the
Democratic convention will not indorse
the Cincinnati ticket. Whereas, on
Friday, there were numbers who we're
outspoken in this opinion. Almost all
now express willingness to support
Greeley, if their convention decides to
take him up"
The Greeley Brown ticket is q strong
one at this writing, it looks stronger
than any that could have been chosen by
that convention. 1t bids fair to to claim
more adherents from the very ranks Of
the GRANTEES than any other comb,na
ton; and it promises to secure two great
States that might by chance have gone
for the smoker in case of other choice. -

This is the very best nomination that
could have beeu made. Greeley is q
great and good man, and every honest

The Democracy have now the opportu.
nifty to redeem the country from the
blight and mildew Of Radicalism and

The beacon fires will be lit from the
Green mountains to the Blue Ridge, from

This is remarkably strong ticket,
but we should have liked it better if the
