Tbe ''Greatest Statesman' of the De
mocracy aid General Illalr.
Tab comments upon tbe Democratic nomina
tions t7 tbe journals of tbe country of various
Blades of opinion, re of a contradictor and
condoling cbaracter; tbe organs of tbe Re
publican party and some independent news
papers declaring that tbe tloket is inevitably
doomed to defeat, while the Democratio Jour
naif, as in duty bound, affirm tbat nothing
could bare been more satisfactory and en
couraging tban tbe unanimous eeleotion of
tbeir "greatest statesman" as their Presi
dential nominee. Tula declaration, whloh is
apparently sincere, affords a strikingoomment
ary npon tbe position and conduct of their
party. It maintained for a long period unin
terrupted sway in the national councils, train
ing a large number of its chosen favorites in
tbe publio service as Congressmen, Senators,
Cabinet offior8f and diplomatists, and yet it
now boasts tbat it has found in a man who has
cffiolally figured exclusively in the tortuous
politics of the Empire State, a statesman of
more exalted genius and greater profundity
than any of the Democratio champions who
have enjoyed opportunities in a national arena
to air their theories and to demonstrate their
wisdom or their folly, their patriotism or tbeir
treasonable proolivities. If this judgment be
correct, it reflects great disoredit upon the
long list of Democratic magnates who have
been fairly tried before the people, and in
their eulogies of Seymour it would be interest
ing to bear them explain how and why he
gained Lis alleged pre-eminence, despite the
lack, of proper opportunities. The nation has
witnessed, during the last twelve years, some
times with mortification, but oftener with just
indignation, innumerable displays of Demo
cratio statesmanship. The favorite dootrines
Of the party were exemplified in the South,
by the treasonable efforts to inaugurate the
Rebellion, and in the North by schemes to
prevent a vigorous prosecution of the war
instituted to suppress it, and there is no evi
dence that Horatio Seymour's statesmanship
ever elevated him above the low level of
Democratio prejudices and platforms. Indeed,
when it is remembered that the
man who, iu tbe New York Con
vention, first strenuously insisted upon
his nomination was no less a personage than
the notorious Vallandigham; and when Sey
mour's record in connection with tbe stages of
tbe rebellion and the New York riots is con
sidered, it will be difficult to ascribe to thii
paragon any other sort of statesmanship than
that which has been emphatically coudemued
by the repeated verdiots of the American peo
ple. His chief advantage over his competitors
arose from the faot that he did not place on
record in the Congressional Globe, or in the
archives of national departments the current
opinions of the party to which he has ad
hered with unwavering fidelity, but he has
said and done enough to prove his thorough
Sympathy with tbe ultra leaders of his organi
zation, and to become the chosen candidate of
the radical Pendleton faction. Satisfied that he
will blindly follow "the old landmarks of the
party," the Democratio politicians willscaroely
attempt to disguise this obvious faot, and they
will only endeavor to attract doubtful voter1
by some of the glittering generalities of their
platform and by their nominee for Vice-President.
Resisting the nomination of Genera
Hanoock for the first place on thei
ticket, they concluded that it would be saf
to confer the secondary honor npon a Union
Beldier, who had followed up his abandonment
ef republicanism by a declaration that he
favored a revolutionary reversal of the recon
struction policy of Congress. Thousands of
men entered the war as Democrats, and
emerged from it Republicans, but General
Blair gained a strong hold npon the affections
of the Democracy by pursuing the direotly
opposite course. In I860, when he addressed
a Linooln meeting in this city, he bitterly de
Bounced the members of tbe Union party of that
day in Pennsylvania for not openly assuming the
name of Republicans, and boasted that ia the
Slave State of Missouri he gloried in proclaim
ing himself an emancipationist. Stubbornly
as the New York Convention resisted the ap
peals of those who urged that suocess was im
possible nnless they nominated for President
some man who had not always been a strict
Democratio partisan, the force of this argu
ment was evidently acknowdged in the most
nrgraoious and ineffective manner possible by
the nomination of General Blair. Instead of
strengthening the Deinocra'ic ticket, his erra-
lio record and his recent letter invoking a new
rebellion will render him even less acceptable
to patriotio voters than Horatio Seymour.
The Republican party will inevitably
triumph in the coming election, unless it
commits the error of so greatly underrating
Its antagonists as to permit them to carry the
election by default. It is evident that the
Democracy will make a desperate attempt to
achieve suocess. conscious of the popu
larity of Grant and Colfax, they start from the
outset fully impressed with the idea that lu-
cessant and untiring exertions are necessary
to give them even a ihost of a chance of vio
tory. They will constantly labor, in season
and oat of season, by fair means and foul, to
Strengthen tbeir ticket. All their internal
dlssens'ons and antagonisms will be healed,
and they will move on in solid column in sup
port of Seymour and Blair. If the Republi
cans are wise, they will soon recognize the
necessity of perfecting a oonnter-orgabixation
that will worthily sustain in its com
pleteness and effectiveness the olaims of their
great leader. " . ,
How Philadelph a Ratified.
On Saturday night the faithful of our city met
in front of Independence Hall, to ratify the
Democratio nominations. A large stand was
erected, big placards posted, and the speak
ers annonnoed; the only thing whioh marred
the complete success of the whole affair was
tbe trifling absence of a big crowd. In all
candor we must say that two thousand people
would be au over estimate of those who were
present. From beginning to end the spirit
evinced proved tbat the Demooratio party in
Philadelphia entered the contest with tbe oer
tainty ef failure staring them in the face.
The meetiDg was presided over by that "vene
rable" eage Richard Vaux. His speech was
thoroughly cbaracleristio. Mr. Vaux com
menced by stating that the "nomination of
Seymour and Blair were by the whole Union,
because the convention whioh seleoted them
had representatives from all the States."
Wherein the special merit of their nomination
consists over that by the Republicans is not
stated, as Grant and Colfax were also nomi
nated under exactly similar olroumstanoes, so
far as the number of votes they received wai
concerned. Bat what has logio to do with the
question? Progressing in his torrent of
words, the speaker detected a light ahead. He
predicts a good time coming. He says "the
golden age of the country is about to return,"
and detects the dawn in the certainty of the
election of Seymour. Oh 1 lasting night tha,
is in store for our land if there shall be m
light nntil it illuminates the head of the great
Horatio as President of ths United States !
What is Egyptian darkness oompared with
tbat in the future f We fear the sun will set
to rise no more if his rays are not needed until
the good times comes.
There can be but one way to explain the
statement of the great Vaux. He perpetrates
joke on the word "golden." He refers to
specie payments, and is twitting the Demo
cracy with their financial views. With this as
our key, let us see how plain the complex
sentenoe becomes:
T je r olden axe of the republio Is to be rein-
arguraled, Arm, by tbe nomination, then by
tl e sanction of the people, and then ia the ad
riilnlatratloD of the Federal Government, under
tl e Constitution and the laws made In aooord-
ai ce therewith."
This can mean but one thing. It is a pro
phecy that Grant will be elected and specie
payment be once mere resumed. If it meant
Demooratio suocess, surely by flooding the ooun
try with "greenbacks" no golden age" will
be secured. But it is really too bad, Richard t
it is too bad ! Remember, you have no right
to joke at the expense of your friends. Old
men do dearly love their little puns; but then
there is carrying a thing to an exoess, and to
prophesy Republican suocess to a Demooratio
meeting, when you are its President, cannot
be excused even on tbe pita of getting off
a joke.
Farther on the orator says:
"The hones of all true patriots are revived: for
tbey see In inecumlug future Ibe blioi, peace
ful, penetrating, una pervading, line tnedew ol
heaven, rein vmoraiiug their energies to rescue
ttie country from the control of bauds of
UHurpers and i in port t ere, who are crucifying re
presentative cduHiiiutional government, to set
up in 1U stead a despotic power, to paotectthetn
from the wrath of tue people, awakening to the
duties which the equity of retribution Im
poses." Surely tbe intense heat of Saturday night
has affeoted the massive brain. What with
tbe dew of heaven, tbe crucifixion, the equity
of retribution we would have supposed the
legal mind would refer to redemption also
we cannot tell at what the great man is aiming.
But the peroration is the thing. We are afraid
to congratulate the ex-Mayor on any other
part, beoaase it recalls to us so strongly the
story of a Frenchman who had lost his wife.
As he went along the street to the funeral he
was painfully affected, sobbing and shouting.
A friend who met him on tbe way called next
day to expresB his sympathy. "My dear fel
low, you were dreadfully overoome going to
the funeral." "What !" he replied; "Going
to it 1 Oh, that was nothing. You should
have teen me at the grave!" So it is with
Richard. We dare not say that any of his ex
cellent abuse of the radicals was good, lest he
refers ns to the peroration. We give it to our
readers:
' It will drive tbe usurpers from the Federal
capl ol, ana irom tbe Hiatus where now tuey
and the negro seek to govern against right, jus
tice, i rut b. righteousuetis, reason, patriotism. me
Iuwm of God and the protest of enlightened
ruat kind."
What the "protest of enlightened man
kind" means we do not pretend to conjecture,
but then as Unole Toby says when accused of
rt peating an irrelavent quotation "What's the
odds, it sounds all right."
The rest of the meeting was rather a tame
affair. No new adjective was applied. In faot
the meeting wa3 rather mild. It only calls m
"usurpers," " traitors," " revolutionists,'
"murderers," "incendiaries," and such like
epithets. We see nothing new. Oh for a
n an with the wonderful cursing power of An
diew Jackson. He would be worth ten thou
sands votes.
The conolitmg speech was delivered by a
Col. (?) McDowell of Harrlsburg. Let those
viho can make sense out of it do so.
"Colonel Thomas C. McD well, of Harrlsburg
was now Introduced, and said tbat he had
fiund. Klde by side with himself on the Plat
form, a man whom he had not met since be was
a prisoner in tbe old Capitol Jail at Washing
ton a prisoner for no act or ni, ho lar as ns
knew. Ue bad entered tbe war, but euld not
remain iu the army. He soon became dlsxuated
and left the st-rvloo. The course of tbe radicals
u. on tiwi mnr-h for lilna. He honed tbat tbe peo
ple would take care of tbe radical members of
Congress from pnntuieipuia: wouiu seuu a nun
censor to Bill Kelley, to Leonard Mvers. to
Charles O'Neill, and to all tbe radical orew.
niii nnt.mtuVi t.n bas nne of them returned. In
rile.ee of Charles O'Neill, be expeoted to see tbat
lonest, tried, and true man, Colonel Florenoe,
chosen." (Applause.)
A clue to its vagueness is given by our
1 neighbor, the Post:
"Colonel McDowell, of Harrlsburg. was next
(totted out. Alter denouncing tbe radicals, tne
nlKKT,' and Bui Kelley, he engaged in a ram
Ming conversation with tbe audience, and was
finally given a strong hint by one of the ooin
mlt aa to q!t. which he did, and wm loudly
entered lor doing u." -
With this oheerfal and soul-stirring episode,
he great ratification meeting terminated. If
throughout the campaign its type will be but
-followed, we will have the State by 50,000
majority.
Literature and the Drums, -
It his recently ieoome enite the fashion to
bewail the decline of literature and the drama
as one of the .undeniable facts of the day.
This is no new thing under the sun, for Gold
smith made his vulgar lady from town ex
olaim in heart-rending tones ' that "there is
nothing ooming out now but the most lowest
stuff in nature," and the same cry has been
beard from time to time ever since. If it is,
indeed, true that the general tone of popular
literature is lower than formerly, it is a matter
of snob. Importance in its bearing npon the
minds and morals of the people that it should
be seriously considered, rather than dis
missed with a flippant and superficial oritioism.
In instituting a comparison between the
condition of literature in the present and the
past it should be first remembered that a
great change has occurred in the reading pub
lio. Addison and Steele wrote their editorials
for a select few the scholars and people of
leisure, who constituted the publio of that
day, while the same class, or rather the cor
responding class in our day, is more fully
supplied by the vast array of periodicals
scientific, scholastic, and literary, containing
essays, arguments, and discussions as care
fully studied and as oritioally correot.
But this body of students does not now con
stitute the only publio; . a vast republic of
readers has been recently created, embracing
thousands in place of tens, a publio that
reads the daily newspapers, and furnishes a
larger number of intelligent readers than ever
weloomed the weekly issue of the Spectator
or Tattler. This is the largest and most ap
parent publio, the one most clamorous in its
demands and most liberal in its payments.
K this olass is not yet ready to admire and
demand a severe style, and has not yet
learned the great literary fact that "adjeotives
are tbe greatest foes ot substantives," let us
rejoice in the abundance rather than lathe
var'ety of the quality produced, and in tha
fact tbat so large a proportion of the people
have been educated to suoh a degree of intel
ligent interest.
It is not that literature is lowered, but it
has been infinitely broadened iu extent, so
that it embraoes all degrees of intelligence,
and all varieties ot taste. The supply of the
inferior quality is the most abundant, and the
weak weeklies, mild monthlies, and nonsensi.
oal novels flaunt in front of the bookstores,
just as festoons of cheap oalioo adorn the door
of the merchant; but there are treasures of
silk and lace within.
But let ns not fall into such a plausible
fallacy as to echo the cry that literature is
degraded. Do not stare into the "blanket
sheet" with its monstrosities for illustrations
until you are blind, and then grieve over the
depravity of the day, bat seek ths elegant
diction, scientific research, aud earnest and
sincere thought lavished npon the review,
quarterly magazine, and au immense variety
ot similar periodicals.
Let none say that those who first tasted the
pure waters of the "well of English undented'
have not found fit followers In the authors of
to-day. The wits of Elizabeth, or the "fine
gentlemen" writers of Anne's Augustan age.
never wrote in purer style or with clearer or
more elegant diction. The grandest language
of the world bends in obedience to the potent
pens of Maoaulay, Eingsley, Balwer, and
George Elliot, and to our own Hawthorne,
Motley, and Cheeseboro.
A similar charge has been brought against
the drama, and merits a similar answer. Gar-
rick trembled with anxiety when he saw Pops
in his audience; npon the poet's verdict hung
the aotor's fame. The select few who filled the
boxes, and really paid for the entertainment,
woul l be influenced by his judgment. What
EDglith actor would wait anxiously for Tenny
son's opinion, or weigh it for a moment, as a
matter of fame or profit f Can we imagine
Jefferson pausing to crave Irving's applause
for Rip Van Winkle ?
Good aoting is as highly esteemed ai ever;
there is a larger and more cultivated audience
to applaud merit than was ever seen brfore
since the world began, but we have another,
which makes the theatre-going community
not yet educated into fastidiousness, and whioh
craves for the sensational. We may deory it
as a monster; but if it is one it is a Bi iareus,
with a hundred hands to applaud and to pay
Let it be tupplkd, ad nauseam: it will soon
learn better, and a higher style, whioh is not
merely entertainment, but instruction and
elevation, is already provided for the increas
irjg demand. . . .
