THE CANDIDATES.

II was feared by the friends of General
Grant that the early connection of his
name with the nomination for the Presi-
dency would have prejudicial effect
upon his prospects. The opportunity it
gives for a thorough canvass of the per-
sons record is an ordeal which few pub
lie men are able to pass through un-
scathed, and very frequently renders
them unavailable; for, after all, it is the
availability of a candidate that generally
decides the case with him in a conven-
ton. We question if ever a candidate
for nomination has been so unani-
mously chosen and commended by the
press aud people as has General Grant
by the Republicans From every State
and Territory he has been, with scarce
a dissenting voice, named as the people,
choice, while Grant Clubs are organized
in all the cities and principal towns in
the country. The Tribune and a Jew
other papers have seen proper to dissent
from the popular will, kick out of the
traces, and advocate Chase, Colfax and
other good but unavailable men, They
will, however, eventually be obliged by
the force of events to fall in with the
sentiment they cannot resist The result
of the late elections has added to and
strengthened Grants prospects, while ii
has completely wiped out the states OF
the lesser sspirants. IL is toregone
conclusion that he will be the nominee
of the National Republican Convention.
We do not conceive it possible that Grant
will do anything to destroy the conf
dence now reposed in him by the sober
second thought of the Republican party.
The Democratic party is differently stu
ated. johnson they cannot carry through
if they would, and would not if they
could. Sherman, ambitious as he is OF
political honOrs, would not risk defeat
in a tilt against his old commander.

THE DAVIS, TRIAL.

According TO the provisions of the
bond signed by Horace Greedy and 9th
er distinguished admirers of Jefferson
Davis, that scape-goat of rebellion, is
to put in an appearance on Wednesday,
the 9th day of November at Richmond,
Virginia, then and there to be tried for
the crime of treason. Chief Justice
Chase is now presiding, and will proba-

of his conviction there is scarce a prob
ability When a known criminal is
cleared solely by the technicalities OF
the law, it is a bounty offered by Chance
to recruit the ranks of Crime. His ac-
quittal will demonstrate, that, although
a half million grassy mounds are the
witnesses for the prosecution, there is in
law no such crime as treason towards
the United States Government
