    AILY POST. ™ COKING ELEC-
The Abolitionists of this city having got
through with their convention, in which
their dexterity ha, balloglfox stuffing was
fully charged and it U the
dnty of the Democraoyib counsel together
in relation to the proper course to be pur
sued by them at the approaching muaici
pial election. Our city readers are doubt
less aware that two years
ago, abandoned their, organization, in
order to support an independent, no party
ticket. The consequence of this was that
we held no Democratic convention that
year ; and at the present time there is no
“Executive Committee m of the party, to
take the initiative in giving it direction.
Our attention has been called to this by
several communications from Democrats
of high standing in the party, who insist
that the party should be organized,
which is, of course, an absolute necessity.
They all argue that the only fair mode of
doing this is for a move among the rank
and file to affect it, to which all will
agree ; and the sooner this iB commenc
ed and consummated the sooner we will
be able to proceed with the business af
fecting the success of our undertaking.
It has been suggested that the Democrats
as, heretofore, meet in the several Wards
of the city, and Belect five delegates from
each to meet in convention for the pur
pose of organization, and also to put in
nomination, —it the convention consider
it expedient—candidates to be supported
at the Bppoaching municipal election.
And why should we not have a ticket at
the coming and all other contests, wheth
er in city, county or State? Two years
ago, we gave up our organization, to unite
upon a oitizens’ ticket for municipal offi
cers, and what was the result? Why, af
ter giving two out of the three nomina
tious made, to Republicans, we polled a
less respectable vote than would have
been given to a tick
et. And, what was particularly striking
and aggravating was the ahamefulfact that
the Democrat ou the ticket—a gentleman
of experience, fine and tried executive
ability, and of unquestioned integrity—
was several hundred votes behind his col
leagues This satisfied as of the folly of
citizens’ tickets; ourexperieDce sincegoea
to confirm the impression then made.
We are now informed that there are!
quite a number of Republicans willing
to run as independent candidates, pro
vided the Democraey will refuse to nomi
nate and support them. We have no
I doubt of it; but would such a course
be fair to tbo honest mass of our party,
who Lok to the success of their principles
and not the advancement of particular
schemes, looking to merely personal ag
grandizement ? The two gentlemen for
whom the Democrats voted two years
since, are now both office-holders under
the general Government, and are among
the most proscriptive and insolent Aboli
tionists io*the county. Their success, at j
that time, would have weakened instead i

But we merely intended to call the at

condition of the party ; it iaforthem to say
what conrße ia moat proper to be pursued
When their repreaentati res meet and act
in City Convention, we shall be entirely
aatißfied with any conclusion at which they
may arrive.
THE TRIBUNE DISLOYAL.
The New York Tribune, alluding to
Gen. Hallbck’s report of the year's mili
tary operationagiveß expression to the fol
io wing disloyal sentiments —disloyal be
cause differing Irom the Administration's
conduct of the war:
“This Report does not contain many facu
that are new to the country, bat it contains
some version* of well known events,
which are, to say the least, surprising.
It is a very belligerent document. We
reckon not less than eight Generals who
fcre directly or indirectly censured for mis
conduct —all of them commanders of de
Sartmenta or corps. There is not a single
p waster or failure for which the General
in-Chief seems to oomider himself re
sponsible ; not one for which he is not
able to account by the dereliction in duty
[of some subordinate commander. On
the other hand, it is made to appear that
the operations which were successful were
conducted strictly in accordance with the
orders or suggestions issued from Wash
ington.”
Halleck merely tak es credit for all that
.8 worth claiming, and shuffles the blun
ders upon the shoulders of subordinate
officers in the field. But the Tribune has
no right to allude' to this assumption of
military merit upon the part of Halleck ;
with a Democrat such liberty is downright
disloyalty. It is hard, though, that the
press must remain silent and permit a pe
dant and pretender to rob the ablest of our
generals of hard won laurels, while, at
the same time, making them bear the
odium and disgrace of his own blunders.
We have, in this, a striking illustration
of the poet's comment upon reputation,
which he defined to be a “vile imposi
tion, often got without merit and lost
without deserving.” Halleck, aa long
as he is permitted to remain where he is,
will see that he gets his full share of the
glory acquired by our military achieve
ments. while, at the same time, he vigor
ously kills off the most meritorious, by
garbled extracts of correspondence and
ingenious detraction.
PROTESTING TOO MUCH.
I The Radicals are constantly telling as
I (remarks the Age) that slavery is dead—
a thing of the past—and one of the speak-
I ere at one of their meetings, at Concert
I Hall, was even blasphemous enough to
say that no Christ could ever roll the
stone from its sepulchre. But while thus
channting its elegy, they are perpetually
taxing their ingenuity to make it more
dead. Hence Mr. Lihooln invents his
scheme of oath taking, and Mr. Arnold
introduces the following bill into the
House of Representatives:
“Bt it enacted by the Senate and
°f Bepresentatives in Congress assembled
That in said States and parts of*autes
i o? iD the P r° clai ? stioD ° f January
i, isos, Slavery and involuntary servitude
otherwise than in the punishment of
crime, whereof the party shall have been
duly convicted, shall forever be prohibited
any law or usage of such States or parts
of States to the contrary notwithstand
ing.”
Now, we submit that if slavery be al
ready as thoroughly defunct as itsenemies
declare it to be, all this fuss about it is
quite after th e manned of works of soper
erogafioa; add that instead of devoting so
, BiUCh <ttOTli(gr which havs lost
their vitality and practical importance, it
would be ranch more so:i,,ihle to look after

secret societies.
The Hatrisbnrg Patriot and Union res
commends the following : “Hitherto we
have discountenanced and opposed any se
cret organization of the Democratic party
—bnt, on the principle of fighting the
devil with hia own weapon, we now with
draw that opposition; and, aa the only
meana of sneoeaa, recommend that some
plan, as little objectionable aa possible, be
devised for forming secret Democratic as
sociations, with a view to more perfect
organization and united action. And let
it be done soon—the sooner the better.

In oar Chorehet,
The Piano Porte has long since become a house

popularity from its sweet and soothing tones, but
more rape cially from its being within the means
of so many, fails, however, to meet the wants of
cultivated ears, from its to represent
with Its tones any varied expression of emotion.
CABINET ORGAN,
The Desired Instrument is Ofleied.
This new instrument may be said to be as great
an improvement upon the Melodeon, as a Con

FOR THE PARLOR, and
it is especially desirable, from Its wonderful capa
bility of all shades of expression, making it most
effeotive as a solo inttrumoot, or as a comple

effeots may be produced on it, and so responsive
is it to the touoh, that rapid music, as runs, trills,

is neat and oompaet, and made of Walnut, Oak
