Ma. EDIrOR-I ace in late iasue Of the
Guardian a communication from "Clai-
borne.n commend the proposition and
think his reasoning good. Its adoption
would give wholesome relief to the public
mind. have fears, however, that this
branch Of peace will not Be accepted.
The public mind il grieved. Agreat many
believe that agencies have been employed
Of = character and magnitude that are in
excusabIe, and their results of no binding
force; that q great moral wrong has been
inflicted upon the public in setting aside
the choice Of the people, and that sense
Of duty constrains them to seek its redress,
not two years hence, but now--and As u
last resort will look to an independent
movement II 10 not men but principles
that actuste them. The highest and best
interests Of the party and the whole people
are their ruling motives, and no charge Of
Reorganization os coalition with Repubii-
cans will deter them from the discharge Of
. stern duty. 800 mon participated in the
last primary election. The November cleo
tios will scarcely exceed this nsnber. II
800 men are the lawful participants in tbs
nomination, then surely the same are com
petent to correct the irregularities Of a
work that Nitiates their choice.
