As an evidence of the *• rotten dess" in the Denmark of Northern Democracy we present one additional fact to the thous ands which are daily obtruding themselves upon public notice. A few weeks ago we took up one of our exchanges, the Law rence, Massachusetts, Sentinel, a profes cdly Democratic paper, one of purely northern type, mid iu its editorial columns wo read a fulsome eulogy of Salmon l* Chase, as the next Democratic candidate for the Presidency, in l s 7'J. It was ur geJ in tha Sentinel, in support of the claims of Mr. Chase to the favorable con sideration of the Democratic party, that he was one of the earliest agitators of sla very, and tl*i' Ajax of the Lincoln Admin istration, on nhns« 1 road shoulders that Administration leaned more than upou any other, and that it was Mr Chase who gave to the emancipation proclamation ef President Lincoln its finishing touches, that proclamation by which o great nation al robbery was perpetrated. Mr Lincoln had long been urged to that act by the harpies of Northern fanaticism, but lie fal tered and hesitate ! until Salmon P. Chose nerved bis arm and guided his pen to do tho deed. AnJ this man is urged as a pTOpcr candidate of the Democratic party in 18721 Can the mind conceive of a condition of deeper political degradation than this': Call plummet sound the depth of a deeper debasement V We think not And these are tha "u« departure" Dem ocrats who assume to lead the Democratic party of tho year of grace 1*71, and whom we, of the Middle Statea. arc expected to follow 1 We reject their leadership, •pit upon their "new Uapaiturc," despite that political debauchery which would prompt them to coin their souls for drachms and sell their birth-right for a mess of pottage. Tho spoils of office arc ell they want. They care not a groat for principle, and would betray their party with the same readiness that Judas be trayed hia master. What fellowship can honorable men have with political bawds like these? Let them "depart," if they will ; their rottenness "smells to heaven," and is au oft use to the nustrils of all who aro freo from their contamination. tho sooner they "depart" tbu better, as the party rau (lieu be reorganized upon a purely white basis. For JdTursonian and Jacksonian Democrats to act in harmony with nten who ho!J not a single principle in commou with them, is simply impossi ble. Let the North make its nominations npon its "new departure" platform, and let it ignore tha existence of older Demo cratic principle in other sections of the Union, and it will either have to elect its 4icket by its own inherent strength, or submit to ignominious defeat. Tbu true Democracy of the MiJJlc and Southern Statea will have nothing to Jo with them, and they might as well understand it at lrst as at the last. The Northern leaders are determined to fuivt this "new depart »ro" upon the party. Let ua he equally determined that we will not follow where they load. Tho responsibility of throwing tills apple of discord into the Democratic party is w ith them ; and with them also will be the responsibility of any «ntoward result. No Democrat, worthy of the name, will bo willing to stultify himself. Let all true Democrats, everywhere, pre pare for a reorganization of tho party, af ter it has been purged front rottenness by this "new departure.** There are many true men in the North who utterly loathe Ibis attempt to debase the Democratic par ty, and who will have nothing to do with it. Lit all such correspond with each qthcr, ami when tho cbooy wing of the pafly, at now constituted, has sloughed off, let the white men orery where combine, hold a national convention, and organisa upon tho tiiue-bonor«d principle» of tbo party, and upon the Judge Taney and Douglass basis of a government for whit« man and their posterity forover.
