General Grants Nomination.
The election in Oregon indicates that
the name of Grant has no magic to change
the verdict against the republican party
that is written in the mind of the whole
people. 1t also shows that the deep con-
viction of the dangers of radicalism to
the countryside conviction that made itself
felt at the polls in California, Connecticut,
Pennsylvania Ohio, New Jersey and New
York, and gave those States to the democrats
by good majorities-is deep conviction still
that it has not worn away with time, and that
nothing whatever of promise for the better is
felt in anything done by the radicals In the
period that has elapsed since a State last re-
corded the Judgment Of its people against that
party Within that time have come two great
party events--the impeachment and the nomi-
nation of q Presidential candidate. Impeach-
meut, il is sufficiently notorious, has dcepened
! everywhere the conviction that the domination
Of the radical party is not consistent with the
safety of our Institutions; but how 1t might be
! with the nomination Of Grant no man could
| positively say. Party men Of one side or the
other, and all who pretend to be weatherwise
In the political atmosphere, could predict to
| their own satisfaction just what would come
10 pass; but the truth is that no one can divine
the secret currents of peoples thoughts-no
| one can accurately estimate the hidden forces
that yet seem to move the whole mass
of the nation by electrical unanimity to
the same result. But the ballot box tells
all The seam crops out at an election
and the mind of the people is shown. Hence
the significance of this election in Oregon
determined with unequivocal clearness for the
| democrats right on the heels Of the nomina-
ton Of Grant by the radicals. Grant, to put
it at its lightest, is not so great man, not a
name 30 thoroughly satisfactory to the people
that they will venture another four years Of
radicalism TO have him. He Is too evidently
only the gliding Of the pill, and the people
thrust him aside. And this Is settled, not on the
arguments or declarations Of partisans, not
on the forecastings Of those who believe that
Grant will be beaten because they hope It, but
