DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION.

General Grant will owe his election tc
bis personal popularity, to the faith the
people have in his ability to administer the
government, and to the principles of JUS
tice and loyalty advocated by the Republi-
can party, whose standard. bearer be is.
But to the folly and madness of his op-
ponents Grant will be indebted for the
nearly unanimous electoral vote by which
be will be chosen.
From the moment that Blair was nomi-
mated upon his Brodhead letter, the fate of
the Democratic party was sealed. But vet
from that time to this the Southern wing of
the Democracy has seemed bent upon the
utter ruin of It's party
The Convention now assembled in this
city adds another proof to our assertion.
Every word uttered in that body will be
read in the North. and will the more con-
vince the people of that section that the
Democratic party is not fit to be trusted
withIthe administration of the Government
The republication of the speeches Of
Southern orators, and the accounts of such
outrages as those of Camilla and Opelousas,
has opened the eyes of the peace-loving
citizens Of this land to the real intentions
1f the Democratic leaders.

GRANTS FAREWELL ADDRESS
TO HIS ARMY.

The general order of General Grant, ad.
dressed to the soldiers of the United States
when the war was over, will now be read
with interest. Here it is:
SOLDIERS OF THE ARMIES OF TIE UNITED
6TATEs-By your patriotic devotion 20 Your
country in the hour of danger and alarm,
your magnificent fighting, bravery and en-.
durance, you have maintained the suprema-
cy OF the Union and the Constitution
overthrow all armed opposition to the
enforcement of the laws and the proclama.
ton forever abolishing slavery-the cause
and pretext of the rebellion-and opened
the way TO the rightful authorities to restore
order and inaugurate peace on permanent
and enduring basis on every foot of Ameri-
can soil. Your marches, sieges and battles,
IN distance, duration, resolution and bril-.
liancy of results, dim the luster of the
worlds past military achievements, and
Will be the patriots precedent in defense of
hoerty and right In all time to come. In
obedience to your countrys call, you left
your homes and families, and volunteered
in her defense. Victory has crowned your
Falor, and secured the purpose of your
patriotic hearts; and with the gratitude of
your countrymen, and the highest honors
great and free nation can accord, you will
soon be permitted TO return to your homes
and families, conscious of having discharg.
ed the highest duty of American citizens.
To achieve these glorious triumphs, and
secure to yourself, Acknowledged, and
posterity, the blessings of free institutions,
tens OF thousands of your gallant comrades
have fallen, and sealed the priceless legacy
with their blood. The graves of these a |
grateful nation bedews with tears, honors |
their memories, and will ever cherish and /
support their stricken families"
New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1868-10-02


We address this to Democrats. Inevi.
table destiny has decreed the success OF
the Republicans in the nation and in this
State at the approaching election. This re-
suit cannot be avoided or averted.
Indulge you will in tor3hlght process
sions, gorgeous transparancies, elegant
banners, banner presentations aud bun
combe speeches, but keep cool, and do n, t
get angry, excited, or quarrelsome. The
revolver, the gim'et knife and the stiletto
never convince political opponent.
Use all your endeavors to bring out
full vote, but be honest in all your political
transactions. Do nothing that will tarnish
the reputation of the Crescent City.
Do not fire into Republican professions
from balconies or housetops. Do not shoot
around the corner at Republican be-
cause he don't agree with you politically.
Keep cool all the time.

John Quincy Adams, in accepting the

other things, 81 believe that true states
manship would have imposed on the South
ern leaders the task Of bringing their peo-
pie back into the Union by frankly and
confidently offering to them the day they
had laid down their arms, the right hand
of oblivion of the past, and reconciliation
in the future, which they might reject, if
they wished or dared" boo
Let US reduce this to az individual case,
to show its imbecility. man is grossly
insulted by another in the street, and chas-
tises him into submission and apology.
Thereupon the person wantonly assailed is
expected to say to the ruiiian who assaulted
him, Let bygones be bygones. Come
and see me at my residence. You are a
brave fellow. You resisted the whipping
we'll. Give me your hand; let us be friends.
Take charge Of my financial affairs. You
