WE deeply regret tosee, at this early
day, the large number of Presidential
candidates offering themselves and
being presented by their over jealous
and partial friends, for the Democratic
nomination in the great contest of
1872. Already the list is sweIled into
immense proportions, and we may
reasonably expect one or more new
candidates every week until the
nominating convention settles the
case. We regret, at this stage OF the
canvass, to see any regularly organ
lied effort TO secure the nomination
of any particular individual. Ii is
now nearly twelve months before a
convention of the people will assem-
bic to make such a nomination.; and
then when it does assemble, it will be
governed so entirely by circumstances
mainly connected with the drdiidJl-
jty of the candidate, that it looks alb
surd at this early day TO attempt to
forestall public opinion in the direc-
ton of any one man. One thing we
may set down as certain: the
convention will assemble with the
determination that it cannot afford
TO be defeated at the next election in
the interest of public liberty Oh the
American Continent, aud Il lcU act
accordingly and nominate no man
3rIO can't beat GRANT, or Uhosc nonli-
nation tcW make a doubtful contest.
Our Presidential candidates will please
put this in their pipes and smoke it.
The doings of 1868 cannot he repeat
cd. The lesson of that convention
has been learned sufficiently TO avoid
its repetition. Since then we have lad
the Virginia, Tennessee and Missouri
elections. The salutary lessons they
taught us VIII be acted apon by the
growing of discontents
and theorizing of abstractionists to
the contrary, Notwithstanding. The
people followed their lead one time
too many, and from the fatal error
IF repeating such folly, they will ever |
pray TO be delivered, and will atleast |
never again be entrapped by such |
ievices and influences. The people |
want no more of their leadership. |
They will submit no longer TO their
elfish ami uuprincipled rule. They
&C their way to victory, aud they
mean to pursue it. What has been
Ound good for States, they intend to
pply TO the country at large, hoping
nd believing it will be equally bene-
icial TO the nation. Let the diseon-
ented political hacks who have so
Dng preyed upon the life-bIoOd of
ur liberties, stand aside, for their
masters, the People,-are aroused to
heir true interests and their VIII will
lost inevitably be executed.

TIRE GREAT POLITICAL CONTEST of

have ever had in this country. In
stead of involving a canvass of is
sues rs to How the Government
shall be conducted?" as has hereto
fore been the case, the question will
be, " What sort of a Government we
shall havc-whether we shall live
under the Constitution of lisa, or
under personal. or imperial Gov
eTnmcnt:' He who does not see this,
is indeed a most inattentive observer
of the political zodiac.
The Democracy and the friends Of
Free Government under whatever
name they assume, have to make the
fight with the enemy in position-be-
hind an cntrenched camp, amply sup
piled with men, money and mu-
nitions. Shall we be encumbcred in
this contest with dead issues and dead
weight? Shall we make the assault on
The live, practical, real questions of
the day, or challenge a contest on
distractions and impalpaple gcaeraIi-
ties about the science of government:
The New Departure" says sim
ply, strip for the fght-take on no
useless weight-submit to what can
be helped-make issues for the enc
nay and refuse to accept those he
Takcs for US. In this, the a. New
Departure finds the sign of victory
In it, our brethren of Virginia,
Missouri, and our own State, acted
the part Of wisdom and found relief
from Radical tyranny, misrulc and
outrage, and are once more at home.

be found TO prove good for the nation

The Narrow Gauge Progress.

The Chattanooga Times urges up
on the Directors of ihe Cincin-
natl Southern Railroad, the expedi-
ency of fixing the gauge at three
feet, and thus secure its early COM
pletion. The South and North Rail-
road, from Columbus, Ga, to Chat
tanooga, Ella. Rome, Ga, has recently
adopted the three feet gauge, and
will at once actively enter upon tn c
work We believe the Directors
have acted wisely in coming to this
determination, and will thereby be
enabled to build the road without de-
lay,iand at a cost so low that the road
will pay interest," on the investment
from the start. The Directors of the
Denver and Rio Grande Railroad,
eight hundred miles in length, after
thoroughly investigating the subject,
have adopted the three feet gauge,
deeming it ample for the demands of
the commerce and travel over that
immense distance. We believe with
the Times that the day tor building
wide gauge roads at heavy expense,
and running them at loss until they
are sold out by the sheriff for one
third, the original cost, has gone by;
and railroad men will soon consider
building wide gauge roads, except in
q very few instances, just as foolish
as TO balance sack of meal with a
stone, when riding from mill.
