The Grand Ropids Eagle (Iichigan) thus OPP

poses the One-Term' principle:
The reason why no President has been reelected
during tho last thirty years has been not because ~
popular belcin the idea but because we have
not had President In the tuc mentioned either worthy
Of reelection or one who could possibly have been
elected Look at the OF tie Presidents Who have
occupied the chair during the last thirty years. They
are Mnrin Van Buren, WHO went ont Of Office neither
deserving. expecting nor ate to procure renomina-
tion." &C.. 60.
Now, Mr.. Van Buren, rot only expected a
renomination-he receirtd il, and by unani-
nous vote. He had no Democratic competitors
and he polcd far higher popular vote in his
second than in his first canvass. Yet in the for
mer no was elected by n clear, absolute MAORI
ty; while in the latter he was feariully beaten,
carrying but seven States, and receiving but 60
out Of 29i Electoral Votes.

DEATH OF Mrs. A. ID. RIcHARpscY.-The
many friends of 4. d. Richardson, widely known
as War Correspondent of this journal, will lear
With deep regret that his wife died on Friday last
at her home in Massachusetts,, after single weekt
illness. Her disease was congestion Of the brain,
induced by an attack OF measles but that il should
have taken this form is TO DO attributed, We hsya
no doubt to the intense anxiety she he's suffered u
consequence of her husbands imprisonment She
is simply victim to Rebel iahumani,y and bad
faith.
Mr.. Richardson, with another correspondent OF

The City Of BROOKLYN has rendered the cause
Of Liberty and Union signal service and won
for herself enduring honor by the unprecedented
munifcenco wherevith she has sustained her
Fair for the sick and wounded Soldiers Of the
Republic. Tire Hundred and Ninety thousand
OOliGss have already been reslized-r aich, We
think, is at least $4,000 moro than was ever
before raised at any Fair IN America, if not in
the Woodland she win yet swell the generous
aggregate to fully 100000. Philadelphia,
Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Cincinnati, ST..
Louis, San Francisco, &C., will please note
that Brooklyn is but q suburb, and that Ngw-
YORK is preparing TO do her part three weeks
hence. The Brooklyn Fair is to be Kept open
To-Day and Tomorrow at reduced charges for
admission; ere wives, widows, and mothers Of
soldiers TO be admitted free. AZ Brooklyn has
not hitherto attracted much observation, we
respectfully suggest that she has now worthily
established her rank among our great cities.

We learn from Albany that there IA danger OF
the failure Of the Senate Police bill wherein
Messrs. Acton and Bergen are named as the
Republican candidates for Commissioners. 1t
will DO wei for members, before they give their
help TO such a movement, TO DO very certain
that they can agree with their Democratic OPP
ponents on any other Board than that named in
this bill; whether, not so agreeing,
they can afford to take the response
bility Of letting the whole matter 60 over
till the LIST Of May, when the appointment Of the
whole Board viii fall into the hands Of Gov.
Seymour; AMI whether by 80 doing they can n-
trust SO dangerous power in such hands in view
Of the very possible contngency-eyen probable
IN that event--of another attempted revolution
like that of July last. This is not time to risk
the dangers OF the Generalization and reconstruct
ton Of the Police Department of this city.
Under Its present management and Units present
condition it may be relied upon whatever
may happen, sud the peace Of this city
is matter, not merely Of municipal, but
of national importance. IL it wise
now to try doubtful experiments The admin
istration Of the State will, in all human proba-
bity be entirely in the hands Of the Union
party next Autumn, and then il changes shall
seem desirable it will be time enough to con-
slider them. In the meanwhile the question is
whether the Republican side shall accept what the
opposition have agreed to give or break away from
that agreement with no certainty Of coming to
another, l'ot with the strongest probability that
the whole power will lapse, seven weeks hence,
into the hands Of Gov. Seymour. Tho citzcns
