There Is, indeed, a very large
number of good people, tired of par
tisan confusion and official cOrrup-
ton, who are ready and eager to
join a new organization, composed
of the best elements of other parties,
with an expurgated creed suited to
the country's age and extent and
the nations condition, and do battle
under its unstained banner, for by
such reorganization the corrupt and
chronic leaders-those barnacles on
her bottom-may be scraped off and
lost, and the old ship of State righted
and steered ON the ocean of years by
pilots avoiding the Scylla of DemOc-
racy on the one hand and the Char
bydis of Radicalism on the other.
