of the country. Not he. 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

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

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,

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.

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

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.
