OUR ELECTION.

We think it will henceforth be realized that the
Republicans of our City and State can stand FIRE.
Hitherto. since the formation of our party, our adj
yersaries have charged us in every contest in two
distinct bodies protesting the utmost antipathy to
each other. In 1856, they professed to be- canvass
ing the State against each other, but they were
seyerally careful to waste no ammunition upon
each other, but pour every volley into us. In
1857, the Americans slyly lent the Democrats the
votes wherewith they carried the State. In 1853,
they acted separately but bent every energy to
pass the overthrow of the Black Republicans"-in
vain. But the two parties together polled 40, 900
votes more than We did and it was thence calculs-
ted that, united they would be invincible. Yet II
was impossible for the Democrats, whose strength
is largely Irish Roman Catholic, to poll their votes
for State Ticket made up in part of notorious
Know-Nothings, while any attempt to carry the
Americans over bodily TO the Democrats would
have knocked the bottom out of the rcketty,
staggering concern. But one hopeful ruse remained
that of nominating an American State Ticket
selected from the tickets of the two great parties on
the "halfand-half" principle. This was shrewd
one-sded in fact. We did not need the " American"
vote given for half our ticket while that given for
the other half of the Democratic seemed morally
certain to elect it. The depressing influence of
past defeats was thus dispelled, and the Sham De
mocracy sent into the recent struggle flushed with
confidence that half their State Ticket must be
elected without fail. They were thus to retain the
Canal Contracting Board, nearly balance the Ca
nal Board, and by holding on TO the places of Sec
rotary of State, State Engineer, and two of the
three Canal Commissioners, were to Perpetuate the
winning game of lavishing the public money on
party fayorites, and charging it TO the account of
BLACK Republican plumber" 1t was nice cal
culation, only it didn't work.
A single instance viii illustrate the fairness and
honesty of the Brooks-Amercan pretense OF oPpos-
ing alike the Democratic and Republican parties,
and endeayoring 10 smash the states OF both.
Our City is agtated by efforts to obtain charters
for new Horse Railroads, to run through certain
streets, where il is presumed they viii prove iucra-
tive. Men of all parties are united in these efforts,
as men of all parties are united in opposing them.
A decided majority of the Democratic Senators and
Assemblymen representing our City in the last
Legislature sustained and voted for the Railroad
charter or charters most objected to. We have
seen none of them assailed or opposed for doing
But prominent Republican, who holds no office
and is in nowise responsible to the voters of our
CITY was currently reported to be interested in and
favorable to the railroad grant or grants asked

death OF poetry-has done more 70 disseminate "
among the people than any other influence.
/. is the case. and il is highly proper that schiller
should be more extensively honOred to-day In
America than any other country except his own
Germany. No poet ever had human ty more nesry
at hesrtnone ever devoted the resources oil drama
tic art so genially and generously, yet so Juoio'-
ously. as he. 70 indicating the rights OF the op-
pressed. He Illustrated, BY his origin the great
rule that poetry is never born in the purple; ana
bis forced education at school where the genus Oh
the scholars and their hopes of establishment IN nie
depended on the tyrannical csprices OF grahd
duke sunk deeply into bis soul, and afterward re-
APPEARED in severe pictures of the abuse ofpower IN
such dramas as Fesco" and " Court Intriguing
s'and Love" His early trials were so severe that
be is fairly entitled TO the character Of se-made
man: and it certainly was not BY rubbing against
diamond dust that the giant statue of his genius was
polished to perfection. Though not distinctly e1-
pressed BY him in system, this true spirit oil he
pubhcansm and of humanity latent in Schillers
writings, has always been perfectly felt BY his
readers, and il accounts, more than his Poeuc
powers, for the honor in which he is universally
hsed.
Our German fellow citizens are entitled to great
credit for the enthusiasm which they have
shown in their preparations for this anniversary;
and their example is worthy of imitation Their
country has contributed its full share to that liter
atnre which is raised above local possession into be-
longing properly to the whole worlds and such
