We have been informed by promi-
nent Republican tina, all the better ele
ment of his party will positively refuse
to support the mongrel ticket represented
by Mr.. Obscurity Pope. The firm of Pope
and Greeley is bankrupt and the capital
they are operating on is entirely fictitious.

The nomination of General Perry is

In nominating Gen. f. A. Perry, OF
Pensacola, as its candidate for Governor
the Florida democracy has performed z
good work. General Perry is a represent
ative citizen, and will, no doubt, make &
valuable executive officer The Florida
democracy is to be congratulated upor
its choice; it is to be congratulated also
for the way in which it was made, tol
never has there been displayed better feel
ing, more complete harmony than in the
Convention Of Thursday. Mobile Regis

We hoist at our masthead to-day the
various nominees Of the Democratic party
With some Of them we are personally &C
quanted, and with others we only know
by reputation; but suffice to say they are
all good men and true. OF Gen. Perry
we would say that we followed him over
the clay hills of Virginia during the dark
days of the war, and during that time
that tried mems souls we formed an opin
ion Of the man that makes us a willing
and an enthusiastic follower yet.-Lirt

General Perry is man of high char
actcr and marked ability. He will make
a strong canvass, and a Democratic vic
tory in November can be predicted with
entire safety. Mr.. liabrv's nomination
for Lieutenant-Governor will give salts
faction throughout the State His MANY
friends will rally to the support Of the
ticket with enthusiasm The Democrat
of Florida have no reason to be app G.
hensivc about the result Of the campaign,
whether the Republicans indorse the In
dependent ticket or make ticket Of their
own. -Sdrdnn0h 4Ne,cs.
To General Barnes Standardization
General Perry's nomination without a
prolonged struggle is in a large measure
due His avOwed friends numl cred nearly
a hundred, and he was the second choice
Of many others, but az soon as he was
convinced that General Perry was the
preference of majority of the delegates,
he withdrew from the contest and left the
convention free to complete the work i'm
posed upon it by the people. His name
has long been held in honor, and the
number of those who look upon him as a
worthy leader is not likely to be lessened
by his action at Pensacola. - Times

The opponents of good government
in Florida know that they have hard
fight before them-they realize that it is
life and death struggle with them, and
will use every means-iair or untair-to
Mahonze the State, but they are doomed
to a Waterloo defeat The democracy of
Florida are united and determined. and
will enter the campaign inbued with the
same indomitable spirit that actuated
them in the memorable struggle of 1876,
when they redeemed Florida from radical
misrnle and started her on the high road
