HIP—IP, HURR\AH!
Never in the history of t e Democratic
party did such a weight of yesponsibility
"rest upon its leaders and 14prc!isentative3
as 4:lid upon those who assembled in cop
vention at the city of St. Louts'ion_ the
27th ult. As. we said lasi week, the
whole country was looking to thir.de
liberations for the nomination of 'states
man worthy .0 rule this great' republic
and for a relief from the .ohicial irribe
cility and corruption : Which menaces its
existence. :Tne pei,ple ) were emphatio in
their dematils that not only profes,sions

that the men put upon ;it must be: the
practical embodyment off those princi
,
plea, to.be known and read of all men-.
To the nomination at 'Cincinnati of a
• candidate Without a . purpose,* upon a
; platform without a meaning, St. Louis
responds with the nomination of a Can •
.didate whose name is: a symbol of un
flinching reform, upon's platform which"
* means a_ peaceful, revolution in the whole
spirit and conduct of the igOvernmentof
this country., •
• . We . agree with the N'ittsbarg Post in
saying that now. the • issue is p4inly
made up - ,between Grandam and rotten
Radicalism on the one - side, and 'thor
ough, purification and • reform in. public
affairs on the other. 'lt cannot be.s.pure

by - striking down the New :YOrk
. Rings;
which we freely but :regretfully confess
were' chiefly'. ornpused 4' his . 'own party
frientle...4s it:Would be a gross. slander
to charge•that every, Republican voter

to conclude that 'every honest Republi
