THE NEXT PRESIDENCY.

The New York Herald, though not re-
markable for its adherence to principle,
has always been regarded as being con-
trolled by men of sagacity and foresight,
and in its somersaults it has generally turn
ed up on the winning side Here is what
it says in reference to Gen. Grant and the
next Presidency:
Against Gen Grant in 1872 the prospect Of
a Democratic victory is very slim. In the
chapter of accidents the chances may DC i'm
proved but from all the facts and signs before
as Grant is good for another term against any
Democratic competitor
We think with the Herald, that in view
Of the honest manner in which President
Grant has administered the Government,
reducing taxes and at the same time re-
ducing the debt, and in view of the plain,
business-like manner which the people
of this country have of looking at things
Of this sort, that the prospect of a Demo
cratic victory in 1872 IL very Slim"
