THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CON
VENTION.
In less than a fortnight this body -will as
semble in the city of New York, and pso
ceed to nominate candidates for President 1
and Vice President, and promulgate a plat
form of doctrines. As the "two•thirds rule"
is still a fundamental law of that or
ganization, and not likely to, be re- I
pealed at the opening of the ap
proaching convocation, or at_ all, it is not
I easy to forecast who will be selected as can-
didates. That rule was originally framed to
enable the minority to control, in large
measure, the choice of the majority, and It
is adapted to no other end. Which faction
ofthe party will prove to be in the majority,
and which in the minority; is'a problem of
difficult-solution; so difficult, indeed, that
neither seems to feel confident of its own as-
cendancy.
By the formal presentation of the name of
Mr. CHASE, by what claims to he the con
servative portion of the party; personal dif
ferences among the radical portion seem to
have been suddenly, and spontaneously al
layed, and only the of Mr. F!Frirrix-
TON is now heard among them as a faiorite
for the Presidency.-
The noinhiatnis of Mr. CRasz will be an
anachronism to the doctrines and purposes
of .the paity. Indeed, his nonlination is
urged because it, will signify and mark an
abandonment' - of old doctrines and limes
and a recogniturn of new principles to be
advocated and objects to be attained. In
other words, the Conservatives perceive,
and are ready to' act upon the perception,
that the prosecution of the war to a success
ful termination, by the National Govern
ment, established, beyond all farther rea
sonable disputation, that interpretation of
the Constitution which repels the idea that
the Union is a League of Independent' and
Sovereign States, terminable at the plea-'
sure of any of the contracting parties. They
even go beyond this, recognizing as vuliii,
and beyond question, the amendment to
the Constitution abrogating slavery ; and
this carries consent to the legislation which
ordains the equality of political rights for all
classes of citizens. Nor do the Conserva
tives stop here. They foresee and confess
that the pending amendment of the Con.
!stitution, conferring, the right of suffrage
- upon the blacks in the revolted States,
will shortly be ratified by enough of the
Southern States to make it complete, not
withstanding Ohio and New Jersey have re
called their votes in its favor—recantations,
we may remark, at best of doubtful legality.
They see nothing in the 'canvass which sep
arates them•from tha Republicans, except
party, prejudices and.idlenations, and hence
they are ready - to take a Republican hitherto
of the most advance& opinions, for their
standard-beaxer.. What they are really after
is to hampFr the. destroelive tendencies of
the Democratic party in respect'to financial
questions, involving the national faith and
the stability of the existing system of cur
rency. They demand stability and perma
nence by virtue of their connection.withlhe
commercial and finanCial operations, of the
country. That is to say, they are sick of all
that remains of their party, except its
and cling to it as a spell by which they hope
to exorcise the spirit of evil out of theor
ganization itself. To tis, their self-linposed
task seems-hopeless,. es lire,-mill presently

imaginary. The great movements ofseele : ,

and tend continusly,, to a - higher, and

The subterranean'Dennieniey believe what

to take all - the chances which may
befal them in ibidingin the.old faith. They
know that a' deluge Alas Swept over the

altogether z subsided; but they have an an:
shaken confidenpe that when the dry land
shall fully re-appear it will be exactly as it
was before th§ - ,rainsldeseended and the
floods came, and the foundations were re
moved.' Such faith is' nr the heroic sort,
bukhrmone the Use; doomed to ' disappoint
-1 merit:' '-- - - " -
How the conservative and radical demo
crats are to harmonize their , disagreements
or so balance them as cordially to co
operate in the attainment of a common end,
does not clearly appear. Considering the
case abstractly; the task of reconciling the
discordant elements would 'appear, to be
hopeless. But democracy, in this respect,
at least, defies all ordinary calculation. It
is a rule unto itself, and such's- rule as •ob
tains nowhere else. Democrats wrangle
over personal preferences, over points of
doctrine, and over particular measures, but
when the National Convention has pronoun
ced judgment they wheel into line with
wonderful heartiness. Exceptions to this
statement have occurred, as when Mr. Van
Br.ginn consented to become the presiden
tis candidate of the Free Boilers, thus con
tributing to the defeat of Gen. Casi:, the
regular nominee, and as when, at the
commencement of the Rebellion, a good
many democrats refused to ratify the con
spiracy that had been entered into to make
the democratic party the agency for over-'
throwing popular institutions; and estab
lishing some form of monarchy. Other
exceptions may possibly be pointed
out ; but at thia moment,
~ we re-call
none of special prominence. It is possible
that another exception may occur this year,
but the indications of it are not apparent.
True, the Democratic party is in a chaotic
- condition, owing chiefly to its undisguised
sympathy with the revolt and the causes
contributing thereto; owing, also, to the
fact that all the issues it has made, of any
considerable importance, during the last
twelve years, have been decided against it,
either on the battlefield or at the ballot box,
or by both powers in combination. Nor
have these issues simply been decided
against them, but so as to admit reasonably
of no review and fresh determination. They
have-lieen ultimately settled and cannot be
\
reOpened except by another appeal to the
arbitrament of battle. Slavery has been
abolished; first by the war power and after
wards by the civil power. The former
bondmen are in possession of their righti,
and these cannot be wrenched from them
except by an exertion of violence that
would convulse the Republic as with the
throes of an earthquake.
Nor have the DeMocratic leaders definite
ly settled what policy they will adopt and
proclaim. A. • large part of them are ready
to accept as banner.bearer a Radical free
soilir of a quarter of a century's standing,
and to inscribe the banner with a legend
that shall, in the main preserve his consis
tency unimpaired. This portion virtually
confess that - their party has no distinctive
ground to rest - upon. They might as.-well
fall in with the Republicans at once. The
other, portion of the Democrats seem in
clined to tie to dead issues, and be buried
with them. These are controlled by their
instincts, rather than by their judgments.
Nor, are they altogether even-grealy mista
ken, as we shall show.
Political parties, like sectarian denomina
tions; are not best judged by the platforms
or creeds they profess, butby those instincts
or tendelicies which lie back of doctrinal
formularies and are superior to them. A
creed may be very good, considered specu
latively; but if the church holding ,it doca
not produce men of superior•piety and mo-.
rality, it must be conceded that there II
something in that particular denomination ;
more vital than its Confessido of Faith. The
Democratic, party necessarily professes
~ de .
votion to the :doctrine of the equality and
1 inalienability of political rights; but if it,is
I I
found
, pandering to the vilest forms of
caste, of privilege; of disfranchisi3ment, ,
it is palpable that the platform is powerless
and that something very different is poten
tial. That men claiming to be" Democrats '
do not see the discrepancy between profes-'
sion and practice, and blush on account of
it, must be taken, not solnuchas evidencing
,their sincerity as the depth and blackness of
the passions and prejudices by which they
arc swayed. . ; ;- r
The ' same principles of analysis hold
good in respect to the Republican party.'
It often fails, in profession, to realize - the
expectations of its most advanced and clear:
sighted members; but its animus is correct,
and in the end, no matter hoW ilimly, it is
certain to' gravitate to the right Jioint. ' , '

MR: I..AofrOl f egOLD.
,
The-Itepablicanjournals at Erie and Har
risburg concur in the opinion that "the Dtem
ocraticpress -or Pennsylvania are swinging
around the circles- slowly toward Cnasa,"
This opinion is very likely to be correct;
certainly it 'is being plansitily supported by
the indicatiOns on all sides: The Pittsburgh
Post of the 20th - gives prominence ,to. a
Washington special,mmotincing that "there
is no ditignisincr the fact that . CRAZE has
loomed up and has rapidly gained within
the past few days. On the other hand, the
friends of. EIiDLETOII: are sanguine." ' lt - is:
l i
only a fewlays since the Post discredited'
the.ideaof . ti
intan becoming the candidate
as-absurd i the extreme ' same The e jour=_
mil reiterat s the "pardonably coarse" dec
laration of delegate, in the County Corr
vention which repudiated the ,Post's advo
cacy of '.d ead issues, that , "the fi ght is to
be made o niggers and greenhacks," and,.
rd.-assert' g the idea of "a white Man's goi
ernment" which the' New York World has
shownto be so foolish, ` it begins to sing
small . o n - Ohl Bendletinlian theme; saying.
that "gre nbacks mean that there must be
one en.rre cy for,rich and, poor—that taxa
tion shall be -.equally distributed—that- the
public fa th shall be maintained — that the
letter mid spirit of the bond shall be preser
ved invi late. "Only this and nothing
more." ho, two weeks ago, would have
credited t e possibility of such a Conversion
as this indicates, from demanding that the
bonds be redeemed in greenbacks and noth
ing else, to advocating the inviolate fidelity
of the bonds in their letter and spirit ? Is
our neighbor, discarded by, the Allegheny
Democracy, feeling its way toward GRAFT
and the 'Republican 'platform ?. •If this be
really the case, we will use all good offices
with our party to ahorten as much as possi
ble its`probationary trial. But it is more
likely that the miracle of this conversion is
- to he explained by the great light which has
of late fallen Upon Democratic eyes, swing
ing them around the circle from PEINIDLE
TON to CHASE. And the scales of colorpho
hie will also fall off in due time, under the
apostolic ministrations of Hr. CIIASE, and
the convincing facts presented by the New
York World. _
Of the CHASE platform which we printed
in our last, a Washington dispatch says the
proof was revised by the Judge before it
VMS given to the public, the word "wealth"
being substituted by him for the word "prop
•erty," as it was first written.' It is further
stated that "this last modification, of his
financial views is expected to reconcile the
Western anti-bond and anti-bank men. He
has heen informed that his financial views
are now the only points successfully urged
against lug nomination. This revised plat
form is understood here to indicate his wil
lingness to have the bonds taxed, and bank
ing, under the National act, made free to
all corners, and greenbacks snlastitnted for
bank notes." -,-•
The New York World, which editorially
affects to throw cold water upon the move
ment, allows a reporter to say in another col
umn of the same issue that "if the feelifig for
CII:ASE among the rank and file , increases as
,rapidly in other sections as it does in this
vicinity,it will'have gained such a headway
by the time that the Convention assembles
that his nominee° will be a necessity."
It is quite evide t that the "feeling" is
leaking equal h way among the Demo
cratic rank and ein Pennsylvania, and
that the PENDLET ri press concur in it, or
will prudently succumb to its influence.
They begin to feel the truth of the pungent
remark, made by the Louisville Courier,
which, having been accused of lukewarm
ness toward PENDLETON, admonishes the
friends of the latter that they- have made
him the representative of a faction instead of
the exponent of the views of the Demo
cratic party. • :.
We may therefore, expect at any moment, '
to see the "Democratic editors, of Western
Pennsylvania," whose meeting in this city
the other day resolved in favor of ?mann-
TON and greenbacks, stampeding , over to
CHASE in n body.
TIRE CON NELLSI7ILLE RAILWAY.
We learn from the Fayette Standard that,
at a meeting of the Finance Committee of
the Baltimore and Ohloßallway, on the 10th
inst., that Company subscribed one million
of dollars to the Connellsville road( two in
dividual members of the_Committee adding
ninety thousand dollars thereto. It has
been determined to complete the work with
out regard to the action of the Fort Wayne
tir PennsylvaniCentral Companies, the de
lay hitherto having been occasioned, the
Standard says, "by the failure of the Presi
dent of the Pittsburgh and Chicago Road to
meet Mr. GAnnErr, to consummate the pro
posed connection between that andthe Con
nellsville Road, the_ - failure of which it was
generally supposed would entirely defeat the
ConnellsAlle 'Read." Mr. (must T, of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad - Company, is
further reported as saying to Mr. STEwasi,
of lJniontown, that : ' ' ' •
..'"Vio do pot anticipate that the arrangement be
tween the, Pennsy lvania Central and I , ort Wayne
Bolds, will affect n the slightest degree our deter
mlnatjon to build with great roldlty the Connells
. Rusburgh and the excellent connections which
Already exist at that city. and those that can readily
be established.. independent of the Fort Wayne
Road, will secure very large and valuable traffic."
The Standard thinks there can be no dif
ficulty in obtaining subscriptions for the
second million of Connellsvillo honds, and.
'concludes an article which abounds,with in.
dications of its confidence in the speedy ac
complishment of this project, with a compli
ment to a distinguished citizen of Fayette,

It is witliziore than ordinary sorrow that
we announce the Ilea th of B. A. GEORGE,
EIR., Cashier of .the'Farmers' Deposit Na- I
tional Bank, which resulted after a pro
longed pulmonary disease, at the residence
of his parents in Allegheny, on Saturday
evening. Mr. Gioiroa Was a 'worthy rep
resentative of the young and active business
( men of this city, and was universa l ly re
4arded as one of the ablest financiers and'
most. correct accountants in this end of the
State. In every respect he was a self-made
man. Entering at the early age of fourteen
;into. the service of the Farmers' Deposit
, Company, he so faithfully discharged his
duties - as'UP win the confidence and approv
al of its direetors anfi stockholders to such
anextent as to cause Ins• election to the re
sponsible and , ardmius position of Cashier. at
the age ,of nineteen. For the proper•dis
charge of the' dutleis of this position, which
he creditably flied up to his: death, he de
veloped rare eseetrtiVe and financial ability,•
and the •present high standing o: the bank,
which classes Second' to no other institution.
of like character in the city, is in:large
measure due to his untiring eirergY, prompt-'
ness and fidelity. In businesshe ware mut
teino,:obliging and, acecomnodatingi, in Pri
vate life kind, genial, affectionate and con
fiding; in both capacities 'winning the re
sped and esteem of all with iilican•lie came
in contact: His early death i , io.lre deeply
deplOted by every member of the active :
•business community with whose test Inter
ests he has been so' longand closely identi
fied, and by a large number of admiring
friends and acquaintances in the circle of
private life. •
Tim New York World of the 20th. says
"that Mr. CHASE will not receive. a single'
vote from any delegation," . for the reason
thit he has not, pledged himetlf to standby
the ticket if his claims are overruled. Per
centre': A Wasbiugton ;journal of the 19th
states that "it is reported, on good authori
ty, that Mr. CHASE has written a 'letter . to
be read in-the Demotratic National Conven
tion, placing himself squsxely en any plat
form that the Convention may determine;
but urges on members of the. Convention._
that negro suffrage be recognized and mi
versal amnesty be demanded." If this re—.
port be true, it supplies the necessary and
only condition insisted upon by the Worla.
We have no doubt that the report is correct,
and that the World's article from which we.
quote was written with' a private.knewledgw
of it. Neither the World's' managers, nor
any one else who is familiar . with' Mr..
CEASE'S political career, could ever doubt
that he would surrender any principle or.
abandon any friend to promote the schemes
of his individual ambition.
"PTE. do not suppose that the sUpportere
of Mr. PENDLETON' will insist upon the in
corporathm of his greenback theory into
the platform," says the 1:4 - eyr York Worlds
of the 20th. Of course this win exactly:'
suit the " Democratic editors of Western
Pennsylvania" who, if all reports are true,.
are ready for their cue to go back on the
"unanimous resolutions" for PENDLETON:
and greenbacks which they adopted the
other day.

CONVALESCENCE.
After a disease has been conquered, there is still
the weakness that It leaves behind it to be removed.
Convalescence Is a tedious affair. If the enfeebled
and flaccid .muscles, the shattered nerves, the thin
and watery blood could speak, they would cry for
help. In too many cases such help as is given them
is not of the right Mud. ' The fiery stimulants of
commerce do harm. They kindle a temporaryname;
which is a mockery. Their effect passes, and the
last state of him who uses them is worse than the
first. Not such Is the effect of HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BITTERS. There is no drawback to its
toning properties. It has been tound THE GREAT
MEDICINE OF THE AGE for sustaining and brac
ing up , the, enfeebled constitution - no matter how
much debilltated—as it. not only bestows strength,.
but soothes the nervous: system. allays all excite
ment of the brain. While this excellent preparation
possesses suciteffectlve properties, tt is
~ perfectly;
safe and is agreeable to. the taste. Attempts have
been made, o rival it. They have felled. Can it be
necessary to say Sty theg:h.—Ve Ask the re
covered` dyspeptics, hilloni 'sufferers. rictiMs of
