'llse prospects of the Democracy this
fall are so good that it would be criiiii
nal for the Convention to neglect its
duty in any particular. Its first and
greatest work, after the adoptions of the
platform, will be to give us able and
popular men for the two positions to tie

want is men to lead them of great
minds and broad and liberal views;
Democrats to whom there is no guile,
and whom they can fully and COM
' , Nicely trust. Such a nom is Mr Sim

And there are doubtless others ot equal

no lack of good material to select from.

The Dead Lock —Who is Responsible 1
A favorite theme of the Radical or
afore in the lIOIIBC and the papere of
that party ia the "dead lock" Legisla
tion. In order to divert the attention
of the people from the true elate of
alfairq they are vociferously shouting
"stop thief!' whilst themselvei bear
mg on the plunder. The cause of the
"dead iv Jost aselearly the result
of the outrageous action of the Radi
cals as that the sun ehinep.
Feeling that upon a lair tote the
Radical party is in a mmorit'y in the
State, they arc prepared to resort to
any means to secure a perpetuation of
power in their hands, flaying by ac
cident secured a majority or the Legis
lature iu ISGl,they proceeded to make
an apportionment or the State, which
hr villainous jerryinamlermg and out•
rageously unnatural combinations, has
no parallel in the history of political
trickst6ring in this cOuntry.
When the Legislature assembled
this year the people naturally expected
that, as the two houses were in oppo
sition politically, the result would be
the early introduttion and passage of a
fair and equitable apportionincat bill.
What has been the action of the Rath
calf'? Have they nianifestea a dispo
sition to comply with the mandates of
the Constitution, which plainly direct
an apportionment of die State this
. 3 ear ? Pluming them-el it, upon the
vantage ground they held under the
old bill, they started out with a fixed
determination to llusregard their plain
aonstitut , onal obligations in the matter
of an apportionment. it was
the duty of the llonse In set about, as
soon its it met, to prepare and pass a
bill redistricting the State. Instead of
this, it proceeded to the consideration
of all other business. Nearly one
hundred days, the usual teem of a Res
Rion, passed before any action oit the
part of the House %%as taktu. Then
it acted upon the bill passed by the
Senate. And it may here be observed,
that no report was made by the !louse
Committee until a resolution way of
fere , / by (he /Josue/alio side to ail
charge 'lr 15unra , lie, re , , , n the furl her
folls 1e1... eel e.,te le I . Ile, Intl
'flue animas of the Radicals became
fully apparent during the discussion of
the bill. Mx. STRANG, the leader and
mouthpiece of the party, deliberately
informed the House that: ''The Re
publican party so fur as this matter is
concerned, is entirely master of the
situation and we are happy to know
it. It you do not pass the bill that
recognizes that the Republican major
ity la the State should (rave a majority
in the Legislature we are satisfied with
the apportionment tie have got. The
one we have will suit our purposes."

ittlaCtuit of their oaths, the RittlicitA
majority in the House intended lb
plant themselves upon die acknowled
ged otarrqfs of 1801, and refuse to
agree to a fair apportionment.
In thi4 situation of units the Senate
was compelled to, adopt tejaliatory
measure'. To hale' passf_d all the
local bills interesting merely individual
and isolated localities in the State, and
disregarded the general interest, would
\if '
have been dereliction of duty upon the
part of the Senate. The Radicals in
dicated their course and threw down
the guantlet. They invented the ne
cessity yor the dead. lock. They pre
cipitated it. llnd a decent regard for
their obligationa been observed by the
Radical majority of the Ilause,the Leg
islature would not now be in session.
To do right is no part of their creed.
They would c!ieeriully swamp the best
interest , ' of the i State rather than allow
power to pa.A (Coto their hands. Ad
mitting the tlag,rant injustice of the
bull of 1864, theyi boldly declare that it
is good enough (lir them
Itiit notwithstanding all the scream
ing of the Radical organs and orators
in regard to the action of the• Senate,
what are the facts? Ifari the Senate
suspended le 4 islation ? The answer is
found by reference to the proceedings
of flint leafy. Publie bills /fart been
egulia tal,rn up and dtseussed,
pay.o'd or defeated, as the judgment of
the Senate dirtated. No resolution of
the Senate, no public, official declara
tion has ever been made or adopted by
that body, declaratorrof 0,9 intention
to suspend or otop lagiolotion. !fad it
done so, its action would have been
justified by the conduct of the House,
Not only has the House refused
act in accordance With the principles
juntiee and equity in the matter of
the apportionment Mil, but it has, by
reams of the action of the majority to
all intents and porpo,es sfomm/
wheels V'le.yinbilmo. Fur three weeks
the majority prevented bills from be
ing read in place, and committees trout
mnkmg reportie - =or from any builinens
of any kind—except the passage of a
few private bills, by that body.
The "private calender," has been
postponed for verbs by the action of
the majority, and on Tuesday last,
when it wan reached, a systematic
arrangement to objeri 4 and delay all
Senate bills, was the course adopted
by the Radicals. The delay therefore
is justly attributable to them.
To facilitate the settlement of the
apportionment trouble, the Democrats
upon the C inference Committee pro
pose to adjust the differences upon the
basin of a Republican majority in both
branches. Thin, too, while upon the
aggregate vote id :ant year (ho Demo
crats carried the State, aii to say the
least (lie status of the State is entirely
doubtful. Hail there been any desire
upon the part of the Radicals to act
fairly the provisions of the bill would
have been long since agreed upon.
But they now demand that a majority
shall be guaranteed to them in both
branches and that the Philadelphia
district shall be so jerrymandered as to
secure that preponderance from that
part of the State alone. Claiming a
majority in the State they are afraid
to trust the country, unit want to so
arrange the districts that despite a
heavy Democratic majority in the State
at large, the Itailicals by carrying
adelphia, may have a preponderance
in both lnanclics of the Legislature.
'learly, then,hail the Radicals acted
as they shool?ave done there would
now be no nee .hloty for complaining
alma the "deal lock." It is the re
suit of their outrageous conduct that
has kept the Legislature this long in
session. It in their act that has thrust
upon the Treasury the burdens a pro
traded nesaion brings. If the people
are Pohrto log it in the Radicals who are
