Rc-~NOn,i nation Of Grant.

From the New York Independent.
Now that the State elections for this
year are finished, resulting in the most
decisive victories for the Republican
party, the Springfield R,pubijcan, true
to its own antecedents, renews the ex-
preston of Its opposition to Gen. Grant
as the candidate of the party in the next
Presidential campaign. 1t gives a list
OF Republicans from which successful
nominee might be selected =" but not
including Ulysses S. Grant. We could
have guessed beforehand that the last of
these names would not be found in the
RePuGticans list, and hence feel no sur
prise. Its attitude towards President
Grant has been one of persistent hostil-
ity, and very often of queculoua, bitter,
exceedingly unfair criticism The
motives of the editor we neither i'm
peach nor commend yet it is a well
understood fact that the Springfield Re-
publican has undertook the Job Of de-
feating the re nomination of Gen. Grant.
* IS If the State elections of this year
had been disastrous to the Republican
party, this would have supplied the Re-
puLtiea1 with a plausible and. indeed,
fOrcible reason why the party should
concur with It's view-at least, SO far as
General Grant is concerned. IS 4. 1t so
happens, however, that the fact is Just
the reverse Of this suppositiou. Tie
eighteen State elections which have
been held this year have been almost
one continuous series of Republican tri.
umphs, indicating the general satisfac.
tion Of the people with the policy of the
party, and of the party with the Presi-
dent. IS " The overwhelming leaning
of tho Republican party at this moment
toward General Grant has its basis in
good and sufficient reasons. found in his
administration of the Government; and
we know of but one man who can
change this attitude, and that man is
himself. Let him continue to conduct
the Government with the same discre-
tiOn, wisdom, and fidelity that have
hitherto distinguished his official career,
and he will continue to retain the conf
denco and esteem Of the people, This
will make him the nominee of the Re
publican party, and the elcct'o the pea.
