This list might be OK xtsnded, but the |
names illustrate the beanti-
ful reform and sterling principles of
the party of which they are conspicn-
bus chiefs. Tie Presidential campaign |
IS to be conducted under their auspices, /
md the country will know what TO ex-
oect when addressed from the peculiar
plane which they occupy. Governor
Morgan of This state, and Governor /
of Massachusetts,, must have
elt comfortable in sitting at the same
able with these associates, after leav-
ng their pocket-books st home. Sena-
or Morton had no compunctieus
'isiiings about the company into which
le was thrown, since politics makes
TRANCE bed fellows. Besides, he
wanted to use these fellows,and he did,
much for poor Biaine's discemfisure.-
