God bless the Republic! Grant
is its President. The safety of the
people is its supreme law. Peace is
its Inheritance. Greatness is it's re-
ward. Glory its crown.
The seven years struggle with isla-
very and treason has at lenght end
ed. The rebellion of 1861 has been
finally and forever crushed out. For
the third time the sovereign people
have placed upon a reasonable re
bellion. its aiders and abettors, the
seal of utter condemnation. For
the third time they have declared
against oppression, against injustsce
against barbarism, against secession,
notification, aud treason in all it's
forms, against assassination of citi-
zens or rulers, against murder as a
means ofpropagating the murderer's
principles and consolidating his pow
er, and against national swindling
of every kind, character and descrip
ton. The national victory which
we announce to-day means peace, it
means the triumph of order, and the
supremacy of law it means liberty
to all, equality to all. The peoble
have spoken and they have said the
nation must preserve an untainted
credit and an untarnished name.
Neveryet did foul dishonor blur oui
name.
And this overwhelming voice for
the representative of our restored
nationality, means that we are a Ma
tion-that we have Government,
or rather that it is the peoples detir-
mination that we shall have a Gov
ernment that will make its power
felt and its authority efficacious over
every foot of territory beneath the
folds of the flag. A future more
bright. more grand and more glori-
ons never awaited an ancient or
modern Kingdom or Republic.
Both the past and the futnre are Sc
cure Dangers there are yet to en-
counter, but they are nothing as
compared with what we have safely
passed. through. The Ship of State
has at last reached the haven in per-
petual safety and perpetual peace
Let us go forward in our accustom-
ed spheres of duty with hopeful,
thankful and manly Learts. And
let us not forget the Great Ruler of
Nations and Of events, through who
we alone can tealize the high and
holy aspirations of the patriots who
had died that the Nation might live.
May peace and prosperity-Heav-
ems choicest blessings-be ours as
a nation to enjoy.-O. s. Journal

"A special dispatch to the Cincin-
n att Gazette Of the 5th inst from
Chicago says: Gen. Grant received
the election returns last night at the
residen of Hon. E. Washburn,
into whose house the telegraph
wires had been introduced, and
placed at the disposal of the Gen
eral. The returns from Pennsyl-
vania were first received, and vir-
tually settled the question, but the
General remained until l o'clock
this morning, receiving returns
from all parts of the country. To-
day he has been receiving addition
al returns from all parts Of the coun-

The naHes Of a great many politi-
clans and some statesmen have been
mentioned for places in the new Cab
met, some OF whom are fitted and
some unfttetd to I'll the proud po-
sitions to which they aspire. While
little unanmity of feeling has been
developed in regard to particular
men, we are much pleased to notice
that many of the best journals, East
and West, agree in commenting til
peculiar fitness of j. Lothrop Mot
ley for tie position of Secretary of
State.
Mr.. Motley is among the few men
living who would confer honor and
dignity upon the country, at the
he:.d Of the Department of State.
The first historian of his age, the
ripest of scholars, and the most &C.
complished of our diplomatits, he
would win in all lands respect and
esteem for his country, for he is al
ready known and honored whereev-
er the English language is read or
spoken. Ii fitness settles the ques
ton, the historian Motley will be

| POISONOUS UNDER CLoTHES.-The
London Lancet and the London
Times call attention to the danger
of wearing orange, pink, and red
stockings and under clothing.
They SHOW that the dye which pro-
! duces the various colors contain
poison, and when brought in contact
with the skin, by severe friction
produces sore that is fatal in its
consequences. The Lancet refers to
the case of danseuse at Dury Lane
Theatre, one Of whose feet was badly
poisoned by red stocking. An
eruption covered exactly that par,
Of her foo which was concealed by
her, dancin g shoes. The red stock
ing seemed to be identified as the
agent of mischief, because the neces
sites Of the ballet required the girl
to wear stocking of another color
on the other foot; and that was un-
harmed. The injured foot soon
healed upon wearing white hose.
Leaping at conclusion from these
promises, the Lancet hoped that the
fashy red stockings would soon be
retired from the market.

The Next General.

Who will succeed President Grant
as the Commanding General of the
army? General Sherman of course.
And who will be promoted to Sher-
mans place as Lieutenant General !?
Will it be General Halleck, the sen
Tor Major General Or General
Mead the next in rank? Or glori-
.Ous Phil Sheridan, the special friend
'of Grant, and the favorite af all who
aove dash, tenacity and genius that
rises superior to the most desperate
emergency? Or will it be George
III. Thomas, the noblest Roman of
them all, the greathearted gentle
man, the faultless leader, the hero
without a weakness and without a
blot? Or the chivalric and impul
sivc Hancock, always towering
above the storm Of battle, and as
kindly and as gallant tn peace as he
is terrible in WARP
already we see the beginning of
this discussion, and speak now only
to enter our earnest protest against
it.
General Grant has enjoyed mill
tary rank that has no precedent in
the history Of the country. 1t was
conferred upon him by the spontane-
Gus movement of the people. His
services were without parallel, and
it was fitting that they should be
correspondingly recognized. But it
was never intended that this exalted
rank should become permanent fea-
ture of our regular military establish
ment. 1t has always been under
stood that the grade of General
should end with Grants tenure oi
the commission. 1t is now unne-
cessary to change this purpose.
General Sherman will be qui.e as
competent to direct the operations
of the army with his present rank, as
IL he were promoted General or Field
Marshal. And when, by any unfor-
tunate oecurrence-long may such
an event be delayed. !--the place OF
Sherman becomes vacaLt it will be
equally needless that any new pro-
motion should be m ade to the grade
of Lieutenant General. For fitfty
years or more the country was well
defended and rrospered without a
military officer Of higher degree than
a Major General. During most of
the war we had no higher rank than
that, although we kepta million OF
men in the field and fought as human
beings scarcely ever fought before.
