To the Third District We have numerou.
candidates who are waiting for aud ex.
pecting the nomination at the Democratic
Convention Of August 9th, There is no
doubt that the canvass for The nomination
will DO an active one. But we think the
nomination should DO given to some one
who is not seeking or begging for the posi-.
ton. We have not espoused the cause Of
any gentleman thus far, nor do we know
that we will. We have been named in
connection with this position, ourself, and
Of course felt q delicacy in speaking of the
matter through our own columns. We
have not asked any man to support US 10
the Convention, neither have we done any
thing toward securing the nomination,
for we are willing to leave that matter en-.
tirely with our friends To tue press Of
the District and Of the State for their com.
plimentary notices Of US for Congress, we
return sincere thanks and will always hold
them in grateful remembrance. We can
however, assure the Democracy that the
nominee Of the Convention Of August 9Th
will receive our most hearty and cordial
support

Radical Tactics and Democratic Folly.
A portion Of the Democratic party was
made the victim Of the astuteness Of The
Radical leaders last year, 10 way. which
We hope will never occur again. II was
on the limited partnership dodge. A con.
voutiOu was held which fairly represented
oil sections Of the State; that convention
nominated candidate for Governor who
was acceptable. to the party, and who
should have been triumphantly elected,
but The friends Of q candidate whose name
was not before the convention, but who
was democrat and who bad received all
The houOrs be bad ever enjoyed from the
democratic party, raised the cry Of "cliques

rupt Of men, owing bis nomination entirely
to bribery and corruption. Then ths
conspiracy assumed shape. and regular
contract was entered into, providing for a
limited partnership and division Of the

vided aud great Injury done to its organi.
cation, 1t is to be hoped that the lesson
Of last year was enough to open. tho eyes
Of the party to the tactics Of their oppo.
neDts.
The game i, opened however this year
on the same plau; the same men who we're
the contracting parties in the limited part,

the same political hacks, who all their
lives have been seeking or holding Office;
are at this time 10 the field to VAIN the
dear people against the ''cliques and
rings" Office seekers, party, &c. The
same old speeches will be rebearsed by the
very same cid political mOuutcbauks who
polluted the air with their blasphcmy and
bored their hearers With their pOintless wit
last year; the same pure and patriotic
and honest gentlemen who, when

people not to vote for anybody bnt them.

the opposition are determined to stop at
