No mat ter how much corruption may dis grace tlie practical operations of politics; no matter how much it may be estranging the brightest and most promising youth ot the coun try away from tlie path of right and virtue ; no matter how tlie ele ments ot good government, the making and enforcing of just and wholesome laws, may be growing weaker and weaker every day, the moral restraints aud protections of society may be becoming less and less binding, lie must not open his mouth. If lie does, these Demo cratic " Cliappaquacks" will pro nounce him unfit to follow in the footsteps of the Savior ot men. Now while we do not believe the minister of the gospel is authorized to make politics a specialty in the pulpit, or out of it, we do believe it to be not only his right, but duty, to point out tlie sins which are leading the people astray, and it in doing this he must touch upou tlie -evils and sins growing out of politi- wil nriii.!nhw anil nr:U'tieofl it IS v. X.WIivr i j legitimate, and no oue has a right to gainsay it. Again, a minister has as good a right to his political views as any other man, to think them, advocate them in conversa tion like other men, and vote them like other citizens, if he chooses in his citizen capacity to do so ; and it does not become a Democratic "Chappaquack" to abuse him tor it. We refer to this subject be cause we notice in the Salem Mer cury, of last week, a very mean aud coutemptable stricture on the name and character ot the Hev. J. F. De Vore, a Presiding Elder of the M. E. Church in Oregon, be cause lie saw proper, while at the Philadelphia Republican Conven tion, to announce to that body the result of the late State election in Oregon. The annooncement was a source of cheer to the Convention, and tlie Rev. Mr. De Vore had as good a right to make the announce ment as any other man. The re marks of the Mercury in regard to the Rev. gentleman tat this offend ing, are certainly of the " dog in tlie manger spirit," and any thing but creditable to that (beet Senator Wilson, our Repnblican I candidate for Vice President, ad- j the issue is now clearly drawn. No dressed a Republican mass meeting j new name has as yet been definitely at Wilmington, North Carolina, on! settled upon to designate the in the 18th. He argued that the con- j congruous mixture unless it may test was not a personal oue but one j be "ClMppaquacks" but we know between the principles of the two j organisations. A vote for Greeley, j lie said, was not only a vote for the defeat, but the extermination of the Republican party. KM ' n-A 1J a 1 B not yet been cmlorsfrl by tlie Dem- jg of East lorta,Kl, nor i tlie Kugene City Guard (Demo cratic). There journals take the consistent position, that as Greeley is not a Democrat, but on the con- trary a Republican, to support him WoU' I equivalent to giving up their Democratic principles, and would result in the entire destine- tion of the Democratic party. Thev arc enemies to General Grant, ami would rejoice in his utter defeat ; but thev arc opposed t, milking the Democratic organisation into oblivion, by BergTng it intoa Gree. ley-'Jrown Hepublk-an faction, sim-1 ply to accomplish the very iroproba-, ax. a" vaty K)r mating tnc claps bio end of defeating Grant. If Gree. j "")'. lle(1 out c,,(,e,ily ihv llis 1 )enw ley were a Democrat, or even stood emtio admirers to como and seo upon a Democratic platform, the "d'op wood."

We .. .. .i... .:.,. ...... nmu wi mini un v , vot ,as transp'.retl winch would in thought it right in principle, and in ti,at tnc vote 0f tnat race has practice we have always thought it most execrable. In its early history it was nuprogrcssive m principle, narrow cooti,actel and selfish in its views, and heartlessly oppressive miu iiiwjiei,iiii in us ji;uiv. lire slave-holder's rebellion was but i -...i :...i ti. the culmination of its iniquitous . teacliin. and the fruit of its sec-1 tional and intolerant policy. The ! . , , , ,j baptism of blood so lively made upon Southern soil in defense of hu man freedom and constitutional law, MKMgn iuamiurecuiniciiNue v , their successful niaintcuance,yet calls for the entire destruction of those principles which demanded so great a sacrifice. The Democratic party, under whose training the South was lead into the act of reliellion, by its death, can satisfy this call. Plant ing itselt upon tlie Greeley-Bflown platform, in effect, it dies to its old positions, and is incorporated in the blood aud bones of its Republican enemy, who so receiitly conqnere.l it. This is the logic of the act. If the hcerrt of the party went with the act, and the Republican princi ples of Gree'ey were sincerely adopted by the Democracy, it would j be well ; but this does not appear. J Although they forsake their old or- yumuithm, ami, on paper, openly I endorse the new, they still covertly retain their okl prineijle, hoping, if Greeley is elected, to influence him to make them paramount in his Administration. In other words, they pledge themselves openly to one thing, while secretly resolving, if successful, to do another. In this, of course, they are both treacherous aud unprincipled towards the men and platform whom they pretend to endorse. In view of this covert treachery, the position taken by the Era and Guard is much more hon orable, because more consistent with firmness and truth. Their re fusal, however, if persisted in, of giving tbcii adhesion to the Greeley-Brown taction, will not more than show their individual consist ency in the maintenance ot Demo cratic integrity. The great mass of Democratic journalists in the State and country have already granted 'cir support to that faction, and that whenever the party, of which Greeley and Brown are the leaders, is mentioned, it includes among its chief supporters what used to be the Democratic party. I DM It With m.v BnuKln Ax. Whether Horace Greeley in his juvenile days ever rivaled the Father of I lis Country in owning a " little hatchet," ami in hacking his father's trees, and then being so truthful in confessing it, we arc not posted enough ill his youthful his tory to know. Late developments would lead us to inter that no such ! episode ever occurred in his history, ' Kw1 vall' a reputation ,or ho" and tHfl"S h"0 Wl ''';is y rf WaihMigtou and his little '"'tchet, the you'hh.l philosopher of ; ovcr tl"ow summers, hied : Wnelfffjr to tlie forest glades of C!iaIW.ia, al,J witI' W bran-new honesty, truthfulness, etc. Our Colored I'ltlapnii lor Urant.

OiirDcmocratic"Chappaqnacks" aro oa their nraisesofGa-elev's honesty. " Xo one," eflusively says the Portland Herald, " ever laid the charge of a want of integ- rity at his (Greeley's) door.'' If Greeley has been regarded by tliese journals as always so honest, his former opinions of, and sayings about, their party will, of course, now that they have selected him'as their leader, be entirely endorsed by them, as he has not retracted any of the opinions or sayings. Let the HercSA and the rest ot the "Cliappaquacks'' throw np their hats tor Greeley, if they can, after they read the following " honest " opinion from the distinguished Sage: if ti,ere were not a newspaper nor a common school in the country the Democratic party would be far stronger than it is. Neither ele meutary instruction nor knowledge ot transpiring events is necessary to teach the essential elements of the Democratic creed : ' Love mm and liate niggers.' The less one learns aud knows, tlie more certain he is to vote the reg'lar ticket, from A to Izzard." Horace Greeley. Ntibllmnt pntrloMMu. Nothing but the sublimest pa triotism and the most unsehih zeal for the weal of our country could have animated the Great Demo cratic heart to pursue the course it has in this contest, and with some thing of that patriotic sentiment animating our heart we now an nounce our adherence and support to the Baltimore Convention. Albany Democrat. " Sublimest patriotism," is a new name to be applied to that control ling influence, which, in other rela tions, is denominated force of habit. The spirit, or rather act, which has induced as many of our" old-time " Democratic co temporaries to endorse the nominations of the Baltimore Convention, appears to us to bear a very strong resemblance to that which induces a flock of sbecp to follow blindly the bell-weather. Our eoteraporaries follow because it is their training to be lead, and in the act of blindly following, do they seem to estimate their "sub limest patriotism." An Irishman went into a Chica go store, and says he, " Faith, and did you put in the papers you wanted a mtta ? " " Yes," said" the store keeper, " ami I distinctly stated all applications must be made by mail." " And faith,' and its meself that's a male' sure," says Pat, and he was hired. WILLIAM AVlDSO.
