TRUE AS PREACHING

The Wilmington Stu, in connection with
some excellently conceived remarks upon
he evils the Republican party has brought
upon the country, and the necessity Of keep.
ing il down, now that 1t is no longer in the
ascendant, uses the following language:
1T is then Of the first importance that
tho organization Of the Democratic party
should Be strictly maintained III every State.
It will never DO for it to be defeated III the
South through discords and chickering's. The
very safety Of civil liberty--the conserva-
tion Of Republican form Of government
II our land rests solely upon the strength,
iidelity and unity Of this great party
The wisdom Of such counsel seems SO ma
tural after the experience Of past Sufierings.
that il is surprising the necessity Of Offering
it should exist May We hope. that in o.
fering it, the Star presents il as peace Of
fering. and as mild acknowledgement that
it has given occasion for some Of those dis
cords and chickering's by somewhat too in
toleranta presentation of the elaims Of Mr..
Hayes to unques,iOning support?
