Cleveland Should Not Be Supported.

New York Sun. We were Dug deceived in Mr. (Ti \eland. His high }nelcusions — ami .solemn assumptions of pare n in:s an \ Unsellisli patriotism imposed upon us. But after bis nomination, which we strenuously opposed, a more caivlnl • scrutiny of his character and afitecedents became mdispensable, and ever since then we have dealt with him. not "sternly according to his deserts, but mildly and forbearing]}', though decisively. At last the whole truth seems to be revealed respecting Mr. Cleveland. He stands forth as a coarse person, unworthy of confidence, and, above all, most unworthy of high political preferment. At one time vve thought it- possible to support him as a candidate; still, later we thought he should be preferred to Mr. Blaine: but now we see that both these views of him were mistaken. He plight not to be supported. GrqveT Cleveland should be withdrawn as a candidate by the indignant voice of a deluded and outraged Democracy.
