The National Democratic Conven tion i:i noininatiii". \V. S. Hancock of Pennsylvania for President, and NY. I!. Knglish of Indiaua for Vice Presi dent, have put 'he best ticket in the Held thai the party could possibly oiler. If we cailliol win with this lick'', we can win with none. The nomination means the burying of all sectional dilferences, and I he raising of the issues of the campaign on a j broad und elevated plane. Hancock having keen a distinguished I'nion I soldier, lighting during the whole wii i' fort he j?i esor\ nt ion of the Union, cannot in any way be character ized as U sectional nominee, and Iiis war record will bring him more votes in the Northern States than any other man in the Democratic party. Sectionalism, which would have been the Republican campaign argument if Bayard bad been nominated, is completely knocked to the ground by the nomination of Hancock. We have all along said, despite the urgency of the Tress of the Stale to the contrary, that Bayard would not have been an available candidate, I because of his Southern proclivities and the sectional coloring he would have given the campaign, and we are now convinced, by what we have seen ami beard, that we were right, and that his nomination would have been the certain defeat of the Demo crat ic party. We need a Democratic President, and if there is any man we can elect, it is Hancock. It is folly for the South to waste time in further at tempts to elevate favorites. We much prefer Democratic success and home I rule in the Soul h. Again, t he nomination of Hancock means the supremacy of t he civil over the military law of the laud. Soldier as he is. with all his military train ing and military ideas, be has had the manhood and independence, while in ?baige of a military department J of the South after the war, to subordi mite the military to tin- civil authori ties, ami the recognition of this noble act in bis life has done more i ban any <>t her single act lb cause bis nominal ion. und will therefore give charat ter to the campaign. Again, the nomination of I Ian cock means harmony. So two single men had more influence in theConvcn lion than Tilden and .lohn Kelly: Tildeu as :i [lower in the land, and Kelly as the leader of a small but troublesome faction. The mention of no name in the ('(invention creat ed wilder enthusiasm than that of Samuel .1. Tilden. When Judge I load Icy, the temporary Chairman, in his opening speech, said that the nominees of the last Democratic Convention were as fairly elected as .1 elfersi >n or Washington, t he scene in tin Hall beggars description. Sever al minutes elapsed before the speak er could resume his theme and sever al times afterwards! when the name, of Tilden was incidentally mention ed, the speakers were interrupted with the wildest t bee in; . <)n tile other hand John Kelly and his fol lowers came to the Convention for! the avowed purpose of preventing ihe nomination of Tilden. The result of tin- action of the Convention is, that Tildeu is perfect ly satisfied "ith t be nominal ion of Hancock, and John Kelly is happy j that Tilden is t ut of the way. and thus harmony has been restored, I ami dangers avoided which serious I ly threatened the successoftdie party. Wo therefore regard ihe nomination j as a most fortunate one. mid the I prospects for siiccbss tire certainly I brighter than ever I?clor?. A boll has taken place in ihe Hi in oeratic part> of Kdgcliehl. The Rhiuchart Democratic Club nut on the 1 'dt Ii und decla red i he act ion of the State Democratic dime Cnnvcn lion as unfair, unwise ami unprccc di nted, and calls fur a Stale Conven tion tobe held some time in August or September to ascertain the tine sense of the party.
