The significance Of the nomination Of Gree
ley is, that there is a strong desire for the
restoration of free civil government, and tru {
aud cordial Union Of the States. Without
depreeiatng in any degree either Of the two
candidates who are already before the country,
we think the Democracy Of Pennsylyania will
desire to bring into the field statesman who
VIII secure the confidence aud deserve the
support of all whose aim is to restore free civil
government and purify the adm inistraton o:

Thompson as one whom the Democracy would
support with "nthusiasm, and who the really
sincere FRIENDS Of raform would prefer to either
Grant or Greeley.
