The Next Presidency.

The Free Democrat copies what we said last

to it the following COMMENT

Perhaps lie is. 1t may be found on further
reflection and investigation, that Fremont would
not prove nreposterous a candidate after all
We, for one, DO not expect in the next Presden-
.tal election to jump to a complete triumph. We
have probably either got to accept Of another
complete bunker pro-savery triumph or be
content with partial victory on our side. A
victory which shall be much more important in

we emerge from the political darkness which
now enshrouds us. Heretofore both the great
parties Of the country have occupied mutually

we could 90 for neither, but enlisted in party

scarcely expect the coming Republican National
Convention to take very high or ultra grounds

right direction and will be right as far as it does
go Then we can labor with it and for its can
ddate very confident that his success will be
only the forerunner of other aud higher success

Then although, it does not follow that Ere.
mont is the man in virtue of the article alluded

be found to be the man to accomplish all that it
