ON PRORATION.

The Democratic party has a better
chance to make an impression in these
times than it has previously had IN a
great while. 1t has also an unusual
chance to confirm the widespread ap-
prehension that it is yet ready to act in
a foolish way, or rascally way, or a
reckless way, or a revolutionary way,
or a rebelli0us way. Many of the peo-
pie who are willing it should be put ON
probation-and there are, possibly,
more, of them now than there have
been at any time since Lincoln's cleo
tion-don't think particularly well of
It's promises, but they think 50 partie-
ularly Ill OF the Republican perform
ances as to feel like making trial of a
change. Now, then, under such CIR
cumstances, let tie party show how 1t
can behave itself IN so far as it can
control itself, and how it can manage
business in so far as it has power to do
so. We are anxious it should make a
good show. We would like to have two
or three great parties emulating each
other in excellence, rather than RI al
ing one another in folly and corruption.
Let us have peace.
