Is This lour RcvolutionS

The Tribune. foreseeing the coming
defeat of its party and the election OF
Seymour and Blair, consoles its readers
in the following wise:
/. Seymour's election does not make
him the Government. He would be no
more President, in the absolute sense,
than Andrew johnson. The Senate
would be irrevocably and overwheim-
insly against him, and the House in all
probability, largely so.
II. Seymour would find certain laws
to execute, and, before he took the
chair, he would be committed to their
execution by solemn oath.
Ill. These laus wHl not be repealed.
Were Seymour to carry every Northern
State, they would still stand, and be-
hind them the impregnable barrier of a
constitutional amendment, which no
President and no Supreme Court can
override.
". AS President, Mr.. Seymour could
not make Mr.. Hill tax collector, with
out the will of the Senate. Victorious
or defeated, the Republican party re-
mains master of the situation.
Now, if all this would be as the Tri-
bune says it will be, we should like to
know what becomes of the nibune's Ie-
cent scarecrow argument to prove that
the election of Seymour and Blair, par
ticularly General Blair-who is not to
be President in the absolute" or any
other sense-means rebellion, revolu-
tion dire, and the overturniug and raw
ishing of all things sacred and beauti-
full, the Tribune building and H. G. in
cluded i-UOrld.

George ID. Prentice aud the Louisville
journal.

From the Louisville Journal, of October 81
PERSoNAL.-Some intermeddling gos-
sip concerning the senior editor of the
journal, to which a city cotemporary
yesterday gave prominence, makes it
proper to be said in these columns that
Mr.. Prentice's relations with the Jour
nal are not dissolved, that he holds on
the paper the place which he has ever
held, and that it is the sincere desire Of
all connected with the paper that he
may hold the place as long as he lives,
and it is their earnest prayer that his
days may be long and pleasant in the
land. Thus much is due alike to Mr..
Prentice and the Journal. We deeply
regret that the acknowledgements of
outsiders has rendered necessary even a
word. In view of one aspect OF this
acknowledgements it may be proper
to add that Mr.. Prentice is neither bro
KEN -dewn nor poor; that his means are
not only comfortable, but affiuent, and
that he is quite able to live independ-
emily Of his connection with this or any
other journal.
From the Louisville Democrat Of October 81
There is an opinion, perhaps drawn
from the comments Of the press, that
Mr.. Prentice is in destitute circum-
stances. This is only partly true. His
son, Colonel Clarence Prentice, is an
active business man, and has, by his
mothers will, sufficient capital. What
is the sons is, in this case, theifathers
Yet the rumor is true, that Mr.. Prentice
is without any fortune Of his own, save
that commanding talent and genius that
has been so slighted and contenned by
his old coadjutors in the paper he found
ed, and expelling him was taking away
his livelihood.

Produce Those Rool...

Many persons were registered for the
first time at the last city election. The
books containing the city registration
could not be found when the present
lists were being made up. The conse-
quence is that all Democratic voters of
the clase referred to, mnst be re-regls-
tered. The Registrars assigned as
u reason for this, that the books could
not be found.
Nevertheless they can be found. Such
as were in the possession of the city
officers were handed over to Mr.. BLAIR,
who is winning "golden opinions" by
his honesty and impartiality. Ii they
are lost he is responsible. The general
opinion is that they are not lost. Will
Mr.. BLAIR produce themi Or will he
suppress them, thereby depriving a
number of qualified voters of their suf-
frages1 Or does he want the proof
that they went into his hands : Or that
names thereon have been transcribed
thorefrom, notwithstanding the claim
that they could not be foundt

Ghosts md Mud.

Will not some able Republican, be-
fore the present canvass is over, make
just one strong, effective speech in
favor of his party, its policy and its
future. Can nothing be said by any of
them wsrth the attention of thinking,
reasoning meni 1t would be a salts
faction to the World and other Demo-
cratic journals to print such speech.
Our columns are open. What we can
not meet fairly and squarely shall 60 to
our readers, and have its full weight
with them. But we are tired of reply
ing to arguments which are but the
pretence of argument. They give us no
sense of opposition. Fighting ghosts is
tedious business; and, besides, the
ghosts of War and Revolutions which
were so thin and impalpable even to the
obliquest vision that they have vanished
already in general derision.
The hurting of ordure, too, as we must
think the epithets of "traitor," rebel"
ETC., to be, is really not the sort of thing
which should persuade rejecting men
to confide the Government again to men
who have only themselves to blame II
they have not punished traitors for their
treason and rebels for their rebellion.
Yet this is all which our Radical con-
temporaries think fit to found their
pretensions to votes upon. Ghosts and
Mud!
Is there no Radical living on this con-
tinent to-day who has anything to say
for his party, worth clean and decent
mans while to hear, worth an intelli-
gent mans while to consider the reply
to' Must we have ghosts and mud till
the end of the chapter!
For Heavens sake, gentlemen, do not
let our political annals be disgraced by
the death of your great party in the
fading of a shadow and the dying out
of stencil " UOrld.
