IUDGE WILSON.

The attempt to defeat the re election OF
Hon. w. G. Wilson, to the Judgeship, the
duties of which he has disch arded with
such general satisfaction to the people of
his district, will give very general salts
faction He, however, had toenccunter a
determined and vigorous opposition, which
we understand arose from some dissatis-
faction of some of the parties in the great
Burton & Clark suit However this may
be, We are gratified with the result No
doubt Judge Wilson makes mistakes but
the general opinion of him, here, is that
he works with an honest and untiriDg in
dustry to have his ruliugs-right. and we
believe that as few of his decisions are re-

GENERAL AcauIEscENCE.

We will do our Democratic friends the
Justice to say. that in general, they ac-
ouiesce In the result Of the Presidential
election with a very good grace With
now and then an exception, as in the case
of paper that has thrised b. panderipg
to the lowest tastes Of its party, like Brick
PomcrOy's Democrat, or in case OF some
others that blundercd wofully during the
canvass, and now feel obliged to make up
for it by unsoasonsb!e zeal, like the New
York HorM, the general tone of the Dem
ocratic press is resigned, rational and
hopeful Perhaps this is due in part to
their having really expected nothing else
than the election of General Grant. Pant
of it. also, is owing to Grants moderate.
wei balanced character Some of the
Democratic organs even make so much of
this trait in the President elect as to in
innate that the career of another Tyler
or Johnson is before the country--tnat
is, of an Executive chosen by one party
and devoting his administration to the
interests of another. Already they mark
out for him q Cabinet-beginuing with
the retention of Mr.. Seward as a corner
stone--based oil this hypothesis So lit.
tie is true equapimity understood in the
noisy, self.assertipg world of politics. As
we'll might Grants modesty be mistaken
for cowardice, and his composure for want
of energy. 1t is the man who out talks
everybody else about making treason
odisps,'' that is most likely to turn up as
the favorite of traitors Gen. Grant takes
no step backwards and while it may an
swer for those who are hard pushed for
the solaces of defeat to draw ,wordy COD.
solatious from this source, weadyise none
" put any practical reliance,apcn it.
The Democratic party Of the South,
for instance, may we'll be seriously taking
into consideration what its course shall
he under the coming administration.
That election in New Orleans. where ter
rorism was written on the very footing Of
the votes, and the similar instances else
where in the South, proclaim the necessity
Of total reform, which, if tits not effect
ed beforehand on the spot. will surely be
decreed from Washington. 1t is well
known that, during the war, Gen, Grant
would have used very vigorous means in
dealing with the loyal cause, if ne had
been warranted by law And those who
are now tramplIng on equal rights and
free speech at the South may rest assured
that, when be becomes President, he will
WELD all the legal power and authority
of his position but that he will crush
them into obedience. The school Of the
Ku.Klux politicians has come to an end.
The freedom and order and personal indie
pendcnce of every town in New England
arc to be extended over the entire South.
This is the determination of Gen. Grant.
this is the will of the loyal masses as
pronounced in the last election, aud it
must plevail.--Boston Journal. |
