Leading democrats, who even during the last session of Congress either opposed a renomination of the President or doubted the advisability of it, are how openly espousing his cause, For some time now the whole drift of democratic opinion has Deen toward the President, and unless something entirely unlooked for, like his death or absolute refusal to run, shall intervene, ft ls admitted on all hands that he will be renominated by acclama- tion, THE SECOND PLACE.
