We print this morning an extract from
the leader Of the New York Herald Of
Sunday last. It is significant in two re-
spects.
First-that sagaci0us noter Of current
events has discovered that General Grant
is not the most available candidate for
the Presidency, for either the Democratic
or Radical party to place before the
people. After giving his pretensions its
strenuous advocacy for several months,
and observing the effect Of all the artif~
cial aid that the Radical managers and
bond nabobs Of New York have brought
to bear, the Herald openly pronounees
that he is not the man for the time. and
haals down his Gag
Secondly-it diseerns that President
johnson, in spite of all the obstacles he
has been compelled TO confront, and the
sometime apparent inconsistency Of his
official course, and his failure, at times,
to mark mp to the full pRasure Of the
Democratic and Conservative demand,
has nevertheless so sagaciously shaped
one of the great questions in dispute as
to make himself the leading reflector of
public sentiment in opposition to Radi>
calism, and maintained a position which
gives him controlling influence in the
coming popular revelation.

APPLEEON's POPULAR EDITION OF
DTCHENa

We have received from D Appleton &
20 publishers, New York, through W.
y. Berry & Co, booksellers ia this city,
several volumes of their cheap and
popular edition of the Works Of Charles
Dickens The publishers, in this enter
prise, have entitled themselves to
the gratitude Of the reading public.
The type from which the edition is
printed is entirely new, the paper is
smooth and white with good body, the
press.work is admirable, and the whole,
we think ia superior to any specimen of
cheap printing ever done in America.
Each volume has an entirely new preface,
prepared by the author, which explains
many things not heretofore known to the
public, and of much interest. For ex>
ample, in the preface to the Pickpick
Papers he details the history of their
origin, and settles the question of the
artist Seymours connection with their
production, which few months ago be-
came a subject of controversy in the
periodicals of England. All these pre-
fatory introductions are interesting, from
the fact that they are written by the
arthur after the public judgment of the
literary world has been pronounced
upon his works, and are in the nature of
a historical and vindicatory statement of
the motives and circumstances under
which they were produced, and under
which the fame Of Charles Dickens has
become worldwide and immortal.
The addition consists Of seventeen
volumes or parts, double column octave,
and covers four thousand two hundred
and ffty-fve pages. The price of the
whole taken together is but four dollars
and a half-but little more than cent
perpage.

STANToN.-We print elsewhere 50
much of the reply Of the Senate commit
tee to the Presidents message in relation
to the suspension Of Secretary Stanton,
as shows the grounds of their Disagree
ment with the President 1t is simply
the championship of Stanton as against
the Chief Executive, and is as weak as it
is puerile 1t is one Of those false and
undignifed pleas, which the unscrupu-
lous partisans of a bad cause are often
compelled to make regardless of decency
or principle.
We suppose the Senate will adopt the
resolution with which it concludes. In
that event we shall see how-Congress will
proceed to force the President to accept
q Cabinet Minister whom be despises, and
whom the country will henceforth hold
in contempt That Stanton or Congress
can ever expect to see him seated at the
Executive council board is not within
the range ofhunan stupidity. IfStanton
undertakes to 60 into and take possession
ofthe War Office in defiance of the Presi-
dent, we shall see how summarily he will
be elected by the Commandercin-Cbief

The New York Herald on the Presi.
DENTAL EIectlOR-Its Opinion OF the
Leading Issue and the "COmtnE
Man"
From the New York Herald, Jan. 8
The politicians and partisan newspapers
begin to be very busy about the Presiden-
tial election. In Washington, the focus of
plots, schemes and bargaining, they are
both active aud greatly puzzled. They
are trotting out the various candidates and
prominent public men to try their mettle
and points of qualification. Grant, Chase,
Butler, Hancock, Seymour, Pendleton and
a number of others, are put through their
PAGES and examined. These shortsighted
politicians are foolish enough to suppose
the approaching election is TO be decided
upon the merits or popularity of indi viduals
alone. Never was there greater mistake.
The negro, as an element of political
power, and ultimately as an element in our
social life is the vital and paramount
question of the time. Upon this the
Presidential election must turn. and men
heroes of the war or prominent politis
cians-will amount to nothing with the
people when they will be called upon to
solve it next November. 1t will over
shadow all others, and the public mind is
ripening fast for .he issue. Congressman.
managing politicians, the partisan press,
and even the sharp newspaper correspond,
ents at Washington, do not see the bear
ings of this mighty question and the ineYi-
table solution Oft in November.
The Issue Is represented on one hand by
our Radical Congress and politicians. The
whole framework Of Congressional recon-
struetion is based on giving the negroes
political power in the South, with the
view Of controlling the government. The
object is 10 make three or four millions Of
barbarisns political element 10 rule the
destinies Of thirty millions of white peo>
pie through the balance of power they
hold. All the hypocritical talk about hu-
mainly end mankind being free and equal
is sheer nonsene. 1t is simply a question
Of political power with the Radicals. On
the other hand is the conservative, wise
and consistent policy of President johnson
TO restore the Union upon the basis OF a
white mans government, as il was original !
" established, and as every sensible man
believes It should exist. lie wishes to give /
every protection to the negroes under their |
new born liberty and every opportunity to |
elevate themselves in the scale Of eiviliza-
ton. SO do the masses Of the white people, |
both North snd South. But he is opposed |
to making these benighted people a cen
trolling political element in the republic.
He knows. as we all know, that /
this is utterly rspugnant and would be
dangerous. He knows that this would lead
10 great social evils. The negroes, with
rolstfool rournr IN ti,eir hapdu IN he Cn,fb
would soon insist upon social equality, and
pass laws to bring that about. The lead
