WEDNB8DAY BVBNINQ, JOIjY 0, 1804. The Unit Knle at Chlcnge. The unit rule Is net a Reed rule- In ltaelf, and we de net think that the national convention has proper power te enforce It upon the detonates. In New Yerk It has prevailed In many abite conventions, and has the force of an established practice ; be that the revolt nimlnst it deta net come with very geed uroce from Convention members ; especially when they did net attack the Instruction te voteas a unit when It was Riven In the state convention. If the rule nlieuld be applied te any set of delo dele Kutca at Chicago, theso from New Y erk should certainly be held te It, because of the Ieijr usnge In that state and the un resisted state Instructions capping It. But we de net think that the rule Is 0110 te be observed In a democratic as sembly. The theory in our con vontlens Is, and ought te be, that each delegate is an autonomy, and that his Independence as a representative of his poeplo Is something te be wellRuatded. It is the policy of the convention te Ruard against combi nations and te leave Itself in a condition of the utmost mobility. State delega tiens naturally Incline te stick together without Instructions, te maintain the state's influence and te held their vote in hand te trade with ether states for support for a favorite candidate. State ennvnntlnns natur.illv incline te have their delegations vote as a unit, through a desire te secure that Influence for the e(nt vntn which Is ulven te it by Its being cast in a solid body. Their right te Instruct, however, is very doubtful. Over the delegates nt-large it may be very reasonably urged that they have this power; but the district delegates, who de net directly ewe their appoint ment te the convention are net properly subject te Its order. It la the custom of Democratic national conventions for the chairman of the delegation te cast its vote, which gives a faculty for unit voting that makes it very difficult of resistance by dissatisfied members of the delegation. They would with difficulty catch the eye of the chair, te dlspute the vote an neunced, If they sought te de se, amid the confusion of the great assemblage; and an ordinarily modest mau would net readily make the effort. The chair man of the delegation has It very much in his power. Mr. Jehn Kelly Is net a very suppressible man, and has served a very geed purpose in raising the question in the convention as te the propriety of Its undertaking te silence Its ludlvldual voices. We think it probable that the Chicago convention would be composed of a mucli less distinguished body of men, than these who new compose it, if the delegations generally were under the yoke of the unit rule. It is one that no self-respecting man would readily as sume unless he was In the majority at least and was going te have his will made effective. It is very galling, In deed, te be in a minority in a delegation and te Hud your vote being steadily cast in opposition te jour judgment. Among the many distinguished men in the con veiitlen, there are very few from New Yerk state. Its membership is made up of men net gp- eraliy known ; and that is geueially Ha character. New Yerk Deme crata of independent force and national fame de net seem te be in its delegations, and probably de net care te put themselves where the) c in euly be counted ai parts of a machine. National conventions, wishing te st-cure the beat i esslble me;ubersuip and te give the highest v t' ue u Hie n suits et their labors, will rcttaiuly And it te be their policy te give the largest liberty te its delegates, that it may have the benefit of the judgment of them all and be rellei id rie;n the diet., .en of ;t few. If we have judged Gov. Cleveland properly he would nut desire te be a candidate forced upon the convention. His strength is in the demand fei htm by theieeple, and en that rests hia candi daey. He has dtclaied that in tins, as in all things, the people should have their way ; and he is right. Se that it would be strictly in the vein of the Cleveland movement for the Chic.ige convention te cut loose from the unit rule and give every delegate his inde pendent vote. Hen. Wm, K Chandlkk, secre ary of the navy, who is nothing if ne1 an euice seeKer, auer c treiuuy leaning ever the situation and the extreme p.elu blllty of his early ouster by a Democratic president, has mnde up his mind te take the goods he thinks the gods have in store for hi in in the shape of the sue cessership te Dlalr in the United Slates benate from Vermont. He no longer conceals his intention te occupy Blair's old shoes, if such tiling is possible As the wily William lias all or the worst political arts well learned, and will step at nothing te accomplish his purpose, it boheovos Illair and ox-Smute-a Itjllins find 1'atteraen and Representative Ray, who are all credited with cherishing the same dream, te leek after their fences in time. Vermont has baen represented sj long by nincompoops in the first legisla tlve tribunal of the nation, that the country can afford te lejk en the wild scramble for the office with laughing indifference. Te theso minds that are net carried ftwayby thoughts political or wenther tropical, it will be et Interest te loam from the authority of competent scientific writers that "tee much eroslve power Ins been attributed by certaln geological authorities te glaciers, and that It Is doubtful, In fact, It the work of nctnal excavation has been accomplished by them at all." This cold fact would Interesting te verify, If the mercury were h score or mero of degrees higher than it is at present. m Tneuaii the cholera case that ended fatally in the New Yerk hospital en Saturday aimply proves a sporadic case, !.,. i ..i i.. ..,., wuii no uuiiau ler general uiuriu, ib win be ft blessing In disguise iu Ite incitement of the municipal efllcera of the city te renewed vigilance .In keeping out of the country this dreidful sseurge. Am. the signs nt Chicago point te n harmonious outcome of ene et the greatest deliberative bodies Been In this country for many years. As waj te be expected thcre are bread differences of opinion concerning the candidates, but throughout the proceedings there Is visible a deep determination te plant the Democratic banner high en the battlenientsef reform. The convention can make no mistake, whoever Is nomi nated of the many excellent men that nre put forward for the presidential place. Denis K-ahkkt, the California blathercklte, haB very properly enrolled hlniRelf n the Blaine ranks. It is eminently tight ami proper for the antl-Camcren Independents te dcclare for Maine, in vlew of the hitter's hatred for Cameren. Se greatly Is the attention of the c urn try concentrated en Chicago, that the fact of the adjournment of Congress has almost escaped notice. hkxmtivkxks Atierr aei.

Lord Gower thus registeia his opinion te the contrary : " I have traveled a great deal in America, and almost all the while incognito My experience is that, though a title may be a passrert into ceme circles of seciuty, it 1-t en the whele a drawback among your people It subj cts its pos sesser te two sorts of aunoyance that which arises from the common dislike of aristocratic emiuence and that which comes from quite general doubt as te its geuuineTC6a."

Hubbard opened the conven tion : Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Domecratio Couvcutleu of tbe Uuieu eheeiBj I am profoundly grateful for the coutldeueo which you have reposed iu me In rattfyiug the nomination of tbe national executive oemmlttco, who have doue your biddiug for the last four jears by your authority. I accept It, my fellow-Deme, cr.tts, uetas a tribute te the humble citi zen and your fellow-Democrat who speaks te you today, but lather as n compllnient te tbe great state from whouce 1 come. L Applause. A state which, mero tbau nuy ether American state, is nbseluteh cosmepohtau In every ilbre of its being. I Applause 1 In its early days and snuggles, thither came te our relief, as the winds sweep across the tea, men of Illinois aud New Yerk, men el Ma,ne nud New England, men of Giorgia and along the coast, and gave their lives at the Alame aud ati Jacinto for the freedom of Texas. ( Applause. I can only recall te you iu tbe biiel moments which I shall detain yen the fact that our noighberiin: sister states, her women her glorious Spartiu women soul te us the twin caution that belched into glorious victory at i?.u Jacinto ; but above all we accept it as a tribute te the fact,iu fellow Democrat, that lexas with her J.Uirt) Oeu people gladly at each recurr mg eliciieu place in the ballet bjx ever 100,000 Democratic majority. I Applause. Fellow Democrats, we have met upon au occasion of great aud absorbing interest te our party as well as te our common country. 1 he occasion would net justify me, nor demand that I should attempt te speak te you of its great history aud Its distinctive principles through two-thirds of the most glorious history of our country. I "euld net step te discuss, if I would, its muniUceut policy of progress j the part wbtch she bes taken in building up our country, its progress, Its territory aud its wealth. I can euly say te you te-day, in briel, that the Democratic part iu all the essential elements is the same as it was when it was founded by the framers of the constitutieu, nearly three-quarters of a century age. Applause. .Men Me, llut I'rlnclpln Never. Men die as the leaves of autumn, but principles are underlying liberty aud self government the right of representation and taxation going hand in hand; econ omy m the administration of the govern ment, se that th government shall rnake the burdens aa sjiallas they may be upon the millions who censtitute our country ceuntry meu. These and ether prineiples underlie the Democratic party and cannot be of faced from the earth, though their authors may be numbered with the dead. I Cheers. 1 I thank Ged, fellow-citizens, that though we have been out of power for a quarter of a century, we are te day in all that makes adherence and contldeuce and seal as much a party organized for aggressive war as when the Banners of victory waved ever our beads. The Democrats party, fe'lew citisens, since the war time, commencing with re construction, with our hands manacled, with our ballet-boxes surrounded by the gleaming bayonet, with carpet-bag rulers, with the veice of freemen who pay their taxes tj the government stilled the Democratic party has lived te see through all this misrule the day come when in a great majority of our states the Demo Deme Demo eratic party has resumed its control, its power. It has your Heuse of Represen tatives, and but for treason stalking in the Senate chamber we would have that, tce. Loud applause. We have had tbe presidency, tee Re newed pplause Bu: with impious hands the hands of the robber our lights were stricken down at the ballet, and, thieugh perjury and bribery and corruption, mi-n uttering falsehood through patti lips ami cbattcrini; teeth, in tbe ver temples of liberty, stele tbe presidency from this country. Applause. S)uieef the men who participated iu it havj passed buyend the rlver.aud stand te give account ei their stewardship Hut hlsterv will net lie when it records, as it has, that that electoral commission announced in tbe Senate chamber through the Heuse that it would consider the question and tbe evi deuce of fraud in tbe returns of the vote of Louisiana. I remember it It is the blacke t page in our country's history, ipplause, and all geed Republicans te day are ashamed of it. I Loud applause The Tlinlt et the 1-reiMflUcy. Tint turned their laces, as weil as their consciences, upeii the premiso of the past and rclused te consider tbe evidence, all reekini; with Ignemiuy and bribery and shame, aud counted in a man who had net received under the constl'titlen and the laws the sullrages of his countrymen. That is a wrong that we have met here te right. Applause. Eight years hive passed, that is true. We nre told that tbe law has Kivcn the vcrdiet te them ; that is true. When a jury is in its box under the statute of your state and a judge upeu the bench who holds the scales of justice unevenly, holds with guilty hands a parch ment from the executive et your state, and allows tbe Jnry sitting In tbe box te con demn a mau te death under tbe segis of law, he docs what all tbe law writerM of civilization for hundreds of years have cursed and damned as legal murder. Ap plause Oh, tbe great sin of thatuleo thatulee thatuleo teral commission remains te-day uupun ished, and will ever be unavenged se long as the Republican party la iu power in this ceuutry. ( Applause. I thank Ged that thcre is no statute of limitations run uiiig In favor of that party, applause ; aud in that connection, my fellow-Deme-crata, be it said te tbe credit of tbe Demo cratic party that it oxbtbited noun of that spirit of tbe Hotspur, nud of that anlnt which sought te engulf this country in war, fresh .-nt it was from a great and fratricidal struggle. But our great leaders, Tlliien and Hendricks Lhcre the speaker was Inter rupted by long ceutiuued applause, the delegates rising te their feet aud wavin their bath our great leaders, Triden and Heudricks, with the dignity of heroic statesmen, with the courage of nien who leve their country hotter tbau Its pelf and Its jKiwcr, acecpted the wrong and injury of par jury und of fiaud j aud they nre grander te day in their defeat than the men who wear the power et tue oxpeusa of justice aud rluht. fCbcers. Thus we have kiioeeuded iu tbe faoe of federal power ; we would have succoeded in 1883 but for federal geld and federal urcen backs, fresh aud uncut, from Wash ington.

Theso, we thank Ced, will be oerrcotod when the Domecratio party shall get into pewer oueo mero. Applause. Arrulf nleu the Kfimtillcan I'rttljr. We read the enunciation of prineiples by the Republican party. They tell us they have civil sorvlce reform, nnd jet they demand iu the neU breath from every federal omceholdur of tbe 100,000 his trlbute te the corrupt fund that shall be paid out te the voters at the polls. They tell us they have n 1'iiiit.ui government, aud yet net n solitary felon has been cotidemued in the fleck of theso who hae stolen their uidlieiis from the treasury.

But, folio w-c t.zeus. iu c inclusion let me say that harmony and conciliation should rule your councils. There never was a time iu the history of the Dj.u ur.itic party when the euemy mvites the victor) as new. The great aud uuuumbered hejts of dissatisfied men of the Republican party are heard in the distauce, in New Englaud and iu New Yerk, en the takes aud iu the West, and evorywhero ; and while the Domecratio party should net diviatoeno iota from its principles, it should with open arms sav te these meu (hundreds of thousands Ged grant there may be) : " nore is tbe party of tbe ou stltutien aud the uuieu, that leves our common country.
