The hour and the day alike give us cause for anxiety, if not cause for alarm. We are all awaro that there is a great party in the ‘country known as the: party of moral i jaughter)—and tbat the other day, in the Empire State, that party of moral ideas, in conven- ton, declared that the laws should mot recognize a Divinely appointed Sabbath, and thet they should be amended £0 as not to recognize the Sunday of ourtathers acd of our God. Now, we are not here to profess moral principles and to prate about moral ideas, We toink that that other great party has @ tive overdone that business, and we won't aliempt to foliow them in But we have this to say, we know that ‘the laws of God or wo are fools, and we know that sentiment of the republican party of Now York was worthy only of the days of red republi- caniem in France; iurther, that no people ever ignored the sunday in iheir’ laws. We koow that no jon on the earch, since that day when the er of God graved Wl Fourth Commandment on the stone, amid ihe thunders, bas ever disregarded }t with- out coming to the bad, The other day, this great party of moral ideas met in convention bere, and what was their declaration to their people and tollowera? ‘You may maintait any principle, you may advocaio any ideas, you may think just what you please, you shall sitll be counted among the fainful if, on election day, you will voto our ticket,” If gucb, friends and coun- try men, is the position of the party witn great moral ideas, ask if it is not worth while to-day to make an honcet effort for a party wich moral practices, Paramount among, the-e moral practices we need hopor, bone-ty and, integrity in the mavagement of our finan- cial affairs, We know bow burdened the people of this country are with debt; but we proudiv now understood, instead of Dennison, CITY POLITICS, Caucus of Mozart Dilegates to the Demo- cratic Couveution at Albany.
