Free Thinker and the Presidency


Grants Nomination a NeceSsiy-He
is not Identified NTH the President
Ecery Tub must Stand on its oaon
Bottom.
EDITORS LEDGER There is no prob
ability of change in the conduct of Gen.
Grant. His accession to the Cabinet
does not necessarily involve his adhesion
to the party that approves the conduct
of President johnson. That Gen Grant
would win honors as a civilian, since he
has compassed all aims of military am
bition, is very probable; that he would,
with such aspirations, identify his for
tunes with those OF Andrew johnson, 1
am ,not prepared to admit. Grant, in
accepting the seals of the war office,
obeyed orders" He fails to place
himself in an attitude Of hostility to
Stanton. Stanton expressly yielded
the place to Grants potency and fame.
If the President had assigned the war
office to any other General, Stanton
would have resisted In this conduct of
Stanton the potency of Grant with the
mob, which reigns in America, is con-
fessed. The mode and fact of Grants
accession to the Cabinet is an absolute
demonstration of all that have written
on this subject. Grant is the only living
man who can be chosen President, whose
election gives the South a ghost of
chance for freedom. Five hundred
thousand negroes will control the Presi-
Dental votes of ten States in 1868. II
Thad. Stevens and Fred Douglass be-
come candidates for the Presidency and
Vice Presidency, in opposition to Grant,
even then Grants fame will dazzle the
eyes of Africa, which owes its liberation
to Grants achievements.
The nomination of Grant will be op-
posed by Stevens, Butler, Phillips, ct i'd
omne genus. Democracy will be
arrayed against him. In these
facts consists his strength. Inc
two extreme parties, Beast Butler Radi-
calism and Secession Democracy, will
alike vilify the rsticent General-in-Chief
Fortunately, it may be, the approval
of Grant by Southern Conservatism will
make him Objectionable to Northern ex-
tremists They will see how easily
military chieftain may overthrow Loyal
Leagues and compel a division Of the
negro vote. It was the design Of Radical
leaders, through infamous Reconstruction
acts, to assume for their candidate
the undivided vote Of the South. The
President is not a fool He sees clearly
enough that for himself, or any one thor
oughly identified with him, there is no
possibility Of success he will favor

Street Car Fare.

| An aRsper to Poor Pedestrian -
Street Cars as run in Memphis a
Nuisance-ShaU they be Tolerated ?
EDlroRs LEDGER: A "Poor Pedes-
trian asks you very innocently why, IN
Memphis, we are compelled to pay ten
cents for a ride on the street cars, when
| in st. Louis an attempt to increase the fare
to sir cents failed? The original charter
of the Memphis Railway Company per-
mitted a charge not exceeding five cents;
but the incorruptible Legislature which
so ably perform the part of the Old Man
of the Sea for us was soon furnished con
vincing agreements in favor of an ad'
vance to ten cents. Of the nature Of
the agreements, of course, | know moth
ing. The people pay the bills, and that S
enough. If any reasons are needed we
may fall back on the good old principle
that valueless articles are always
dearest, for one street railway
taking the experience of the past
nine months as a test, has proved simply
public nuisance instead Of conve-
nience. If a man isn't in hurry, pa
tience and half hour will sometimes
bring him car; and occasionally he
may obtain one for trip off Main street
as late as nine O. clock at night. Gen
orally speaking, our street cars have been
run on the principle of coasting boats,
whose movements depend on the state of
the trade. If oral utterances are indices
of public opinion the people are utterly
disguised with the Memphis street rail
way, and would deem its pretensions as
public convenience a splendid
farce if not so badly played.
The determination of the Board Of
Aldermen to take up the Main street
track for paving purposes was applauded
universally on the streets yesterday.
The unsightly public convenience
hadn't an apologist and deserved none.
If put to a vote nine-tenths OF the
citizens would declare it a nuisance
and insist or its abatement Probably
the company is doing the Oest they can,
which isn't very fine compliment If
unable to do better it would be advisable
to sell out to somebody who can improve
matters; always provided the depre-
ciated stock is worth selling. This is
what should be done if the railway
is to be any longer palmed of as pub
lie convenience" II only intended,
however, to promote the cause Of pro-
miscuous cussing and as a test Of the
barometer Of human endurance, let the
thing run until an opposition company
starts in and wipes it out

Grants election, even while Grant will
fail to lend the Administration the moral
power that would be given by his con-
fessed adhesion to the policy of Andrew
johnson. Grant, therefore, will defeat
the Vaccinations Of Congress by failing
TO assume an attitude of hostility to Con
gress. He will control the negro vote,
or a share large enough, in combination
with enfranchised whites, to prevent the
consummation of plans against which the
LEDGER and New York Herald inveigh.
The South, through Grants intervention,
will escape black domination.
Can any other man achieve such a
purposep Name your candidate or de-
scribe the man. Tell us his history. If
it differ from that of Grant, he is impo'
tent for good or evil. We are accustomed
to read that magniloquent exposition of
the unwasted strength of Democracy
which Southern papers have borrowed
from the New York World. We are
told that a change of thirty thousand
votes would give the Northern vote to a
Democratic candidate in 1868. How
happened it that Illinois, whilom Dem
ocratc State, not long ago gave a rene
gade secessionist, John A. Logan, fifty
thousand majority? Southern newspa-
pers q speak what believe) have given
the coup de grace to Northern DemOc'
racy. Ohio will soon tell the story. The
very fact that extremists oppose Grant
will assure his triumph, and ! would
fain hope that he may be denounced
each day by every organ of Democracy
in America. He has been harmed by
their praise of late.

totally unreliable. 1t is due, however,
to the negroes in the community to say
that previous to the preparations for ne
recent farce they evinced a disposition
to be peaceable and work enough to OBJ
tain bread; and possibly they would
have continued to do so, had it not been
for few bad white men who infest this
locality. They now think of little else
than talking politics, voting and running
to town aud to any other place where
there is the least excuse for gathering.
This cannot be easily remedied now, as
most of them are interested in the grow
ing crop, and are not getting wages. But
next year farmers will employ white
labor exclusively, if it can possibly be
obtained. In our efforts to supply the
demand for white labor, concert of action
on the part Of those interested is indis-
pensably necessary. Farmers should
express their views fully and freely I;
associations should be formed and agents
sent to those places where laborers can
be obtained, with liberal inducements for
them to come and settle among us. am
satisfied that no white man who will work
at all can come into this community,
even at this season Of the year, with
out finding permanent employment
and liberal wages. This is no
doubt the case everywhere throughout
the entire South Let the newspapers
make this state of things known far and
near. The new order of things brought
about by the war will necessitate an en-
tire revolution in the system of farming
in the South. A smaller area, with the
liberal use of fertilizers, and the latest
improvements in farming implements,
will now be necessary. In this way one
acre can be made to produce what three
formerly did, with saving of more than
half the labor. The Southern cotton
planter does not know how to manage
successfully under this system. In this
emergency, the day laborer from the
Northwestern States who has always
been accu stoned to this mode Of farm
ing, would be valuable assistant, and
as foreman could command double the
wages that he now does at home. We
need not only ordinary laborers, but
good practical farmers and stock raisers
When this class Of men become con
vinced that they can live in peace in the
South and can command better wages
than they do at home, they will be sure
to come. The articles that have recently
appeared in the LEDGER are well calcu'
lated to do much good in bringing to our
desolated land far better class of labor
ers than we now have. FAYETTE.

HeA. The Turf Field and Farm, al
hiding to the comparative ages of ami
mails, says: "a bear rarely exceeds
twenty years; dog lives twenty years;
fox, fourteen or sixteen; lions are long
lived-Pompey lived to the age of sew
enty. The average age Of cats lis six
teen years the squirrel and hare, seven
or eight years rabbits seven; elephants
have been known to live to the age of
four hundred years. When Alexander
the Great had conquered Porus, King of
India, he took great elephant, which
had fought very valiantly for the King,
named him Ajax, dedicated him to the
sun, and then let him go with this in
scription: Alexander, the son of Ju-
piter, hath dedicated Ajax to the sun"
This elephant was found with this in
scription three hundred and fifty years
afterwards. Pigs have been known to
live to the age of thirty years; the rhi-
noceros to twenty; one horse lived to the
age of sixty-two-the average is twenty
five to thirty camels sometimes live one
hundred years; stays are long lived /;
sheep seldom exceed the age of ten !;
COWS live about fifteen years. Cuvier

times live to the age Of one thousand

approached rapidly. Lopez understood
that if there was nothing done they were
