why Tn. country wan Go for or.

why the Country Will 60 Tor Grant.
The New York Times clearly sets forth
the reason why the country will go for
General Grant for President:
"Every day makes it more certain that
he will be the candidate of the Republi-
can party,-and we are very much mis-
taken in our construction of public sen
timent if the conviction is not every day
growing stronger, with considerate and
rejecting men out of the Republican
party as well as in it, that his accession
to the Presidency offers the best, If not
the only feasible, solution ofthe troubles
and complications of the political situa-
tion. Even those who most distinctly
and emphatically condemn the policy of
Congress, and who distrust the whole
Radical theory of Reconstruction, see
and deprecate the danger of SO Violent
and so sweeping a reaction as the advent
OF the democracy to power would bring
about. Such victory would settle
nothing: 1t would simply change the
shape of the controversy and would pro-
long and embitter instead of ending it.
General Grant unites in his support, as
he would unite in support of his Admin
the whole of the Republican
party; and it seems certain that under
his guidance, acting in harmony with
his wise, moderate and patriotic senti-
ments, and entertaining 10 distrust of
bis motives or his aims, Congress could
easily surmount all the difficulties it has
encountered hitherto, and give us the
peaceful and beneficent restoration the
country has so long desired"

NEW ROAD LAw.-The Legislature of
Ohio with true, Rip. Van Wrinkle in
stincts seems inclined TO go back to the
days when it went to sleep, and revive
everything just as it then existed. The
r. ,ad law of last year, iffairly tried would
haze proved very good law, but the re-
Pc ilers are not willing to leave it stand,
and have enacted the old law, with its
small districts, and elected supervisors
that was disgrace to to the age, and a
curse to the public roads. If the Trustees
Of townships had exercised ordinary
ju6gnient In the selection of competent
supervisors, and given such supervisors
large districts, and some means to i'm
prove the roads with, that law would have
proved good one, but, in most cases the
districts were left as under the previous
law, and no taxes levied, either by county
or townships to improve the roads with,
and then the whole blame is laid upon
the law, when in fact it should rest upon
those who have failed to give it fair
chance. We must do the best we can,
however, under the law now enacted,
although three or four times the amount
of labor and taxes are required to keep
up the roads. seA
