domocratic party, North and South, and that their Presidential ticket of two liberal repub- licans will serve well enough as democrats till wfter the election. These democratic con- ditions, we foar, for the reasons suggested, will not be met at Cincinnati on the compro- mise platform which will be required for har- mony between Mr. Greeley and Mr. Brown. But as desperate men in desperate extremi- _ ties do not stick at trifles it is possible that for harmony's sake the Cincinnati platform may be pared down from the Missouri protocol to a series of high-sounding, india-rubber resolu- tions, explicit and decisive only in the declara- tion of hostility to Grant and the continuance of his administration. Admitting this settle- ™ment on the platform as the most available and the most likely one to be adopted, we have only the joint stock Presidential ticket to con- sider. If we secure a strong anti-Grant republican for President, almost any man with republican record through the war and the Andy Johnson interregnum will do for Vice President, bearing the important fact in mind that in reducing your liberal platform to the single point of hostility to Grant you make this a personal contest. Where, then, is your mun who can be put into the field upon his ‘personal merits against Grant with any hope of success? Of Judge Davis, back of his ‘nppoint- ment to the Supreme. ‘Bench, the people know pothing, Tadge Trumbull, ina smaller de de- free, perhaps, than “any other fiat 80 long in the public service, possesses the elements of Personal popularity. Dignified, cold, morose snd retiring, there is nothing in him to attract fis sympathies of the masses, Governor jBrown, abounding in énergy and full of re- pources a8 a politician, has sprang up too sud. denly as a national peacemaker to serve against Arant. Chief Justice Chase, fi phy shed infirmities of old age that have a i ‘iipon him, has wisely retired from the ficld, Mr. ‘Greeley as their candidate would be a mockery ‘to the democratic old liners and free traders, nd Mr. Fenton would be whistled off he stage. General Logan is too fiery Bnd erratic to head the anti-Grant coalition, and General Cox is too visionary a reformer for tho practical purposes required against Grant. Judge Davis, in having no serious . drawbacks of a positive character, and | aving the negative advantages of respectable obscurity, is the most available of the men wamed for the Cincinnati joint stock standard Hearer; but, while there is nothing in his record to repel, there is nothing in it to attract the hard-fisted democracy. He would be an old Miss Nancy to the Southern fire-eater, an old “moke”’ to the boys of Tammany, and a stumbling block to the Fenians. Where, then, can we find the anti-Graut re- publican who, with any prospect of even a vigorous campaign, will serve as candidate and platform for the proposed anti-Grant coali- tion? We can find this man in Massachu- setts, and his name is Charles Sumner! Our nttention has been drawn to him in this con- mection from the recent speech of Fred Douglass to the Colored National Con- vention at New Orleans—a special report of which was given in yesterday's Heranp, In this speech on the rights secured and on the unredressed wrongs of his race Mr. Doug- Jass says: up higher. Althongh General Grant is a great man and a patriot, one for whom I ex- poct to vote, T tell you at the same time that the republican party, the party of progress, fhas other leaders. One stands on the floor of the United States Senate, a mun who is a | pmajority among men, since one man with {God is a majority against mankind, and yntil General Grant learns wisdoin at the feet of Charles Sumner. (Applause. ) 1 know them both. They are both great men ; but Sumner is no flickering light: he is as steady as the North Star. Yam sorry complaints have been made against fim ; but may my right hand forget its cun- ning and may my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth if ever I utter one word reflecting | upon Charles Sumner.’’ (Here the Convention rose to its fect and gave three cheers.) And phere isa hint for the reformers of the Cin- einnati Convention. Let them nominate Sumner, and doubting anti-Grant white repnb- ficans will no longer hesitate to fuse with the democracy if the democratic party accept him, while the black republicans of the South will t least give him the balance of power in all the otherwise donbtful States in that quarter. Doubts have been expressed as to Mr. Sum- mer’s acceptance of this nomination, if given him; but assuming that he will accept it, on ithe platform of equal rights to the black race {in schools, churches, hotels, steamboats, rail- pway cars, &c., the difficulty remains of the ain by the democratic party of this new | joncession of negro eqnality, But why should the democrats hesitate at this last surrender of Bheir prejudices of caste, after accepting the hirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amend- ents? Tet the Cincinnati Convention try them on Sumner and his Civil Rights bill, in gonnection with a general amnesty, and they y flank the Philadelphia regulars in cap- uring the old radical white republicans of the orth and the black republicans of the South. ‘rumbull and Schurz have botched it. Let jumner and the grand idea of hotel rights of erick Douglass be proclaimed at Cincinnati, pnd the new party may do something. The | proposed coalition against Grant will need a ‘oat man as their champion, and a grand idea their platform, and here we have them both. Our advice will probably be rejected as pbsurd, but it is the best that we can think of just now to save the Cincinnati Convention from an inglorious collapse, and the time is too short and the case is too desperate for half- say measures. Jon ar Tar Rep Boo Atmaxy. ~An attempt was made in the Assembly on Aaturday last to pass a resolution ordering the msual supply of Red Books, or State Manuals, for members, officers, reporters and attachés of all the State departments. Fifty bers voted for the resolution and thirty-seven against it; but Speaker Smith very properly de- cided that it required a majority of all the members elected, or sixty-five votes in the affirmative, to carry it, as it involved an appro- priation of money. An appeal was taken from the decision, but the Speaker was sustained, and so the resolution was lost.
