HORACE GREELEY will scarcely do
for a presidential candidate. lie goes
TO sleep too easily. After he had ad-
dressed the people Of Akron, Ohio, on
the fourth, he had to be walked up
several times to be introduce to peo.
pie who wanted to number it among
the events of their lives that they had
shaken hands with Horace Greeley. A
correspondent says it was very anus
ing TO see him aroused from his cat
maps, and then to drop away again like
"a great infant going into profound
slumber." If this is so, running for
president will be rather oxhausting bus.
mess for the philosopher of the Tribune.
And even if he should get successfully
through the fatigucs Of a long CAM
paign and wake up some day to find
himself president elect OF the United
States, the question is, would he be able
t. cadurc, without "nid mid nodding'
the ceremonies of inauguration? Some
one ought to compound an anti sooth.
ing syrup for the occasion. Or, it the
desired end cannot be attained, and, il
spite of everything, the g'cat and goot
Horace will fall swectly asleep, wha
more appropriate finale to the imposing
ceremonies could be devised than tc
bear him gently away from the capitol
to the tune of "put me in my it'll
bed"

A WRITER in the State Register, in o
discussion Of the democratic prcsidcn-
tial candidate that is to be, suggests
Senator Trumbull, Judge Chase or
Senator Thurman. While it is true,
that Senator Trumbull is becoming tine
turcd with democratic principles and is
certain, sooner or later, to follow Judge
Chase into the democratic party, he
has not yet "dcpartcd," and is out of
the question is canyassing for nm availa-
bic candidate. Judge Chase is broken
down in health, aud should be allowed
to rest after his long life of public Ia
Dor. Senator Thurman is gentleman
Of great ability, but he should DO per-
mitted to adorn the senate. 1t would
be a mistake to take him from that
field Of labor in which he has done so
much efficient service in the cause of
the democratic party.

In a late number Of his paper, the
Atlanta Sun, Alexander II. Stephens
seems to repent, and to desire to take
the new departure. He writes: "Thc
right Of secession, for all practical pur-
'poses, was, as we understand, decided by
the war not that the war can ever
settle or decide any principle of ruth
in matters Of government or justice
between men or States, any more than
: in matters Of science, art or religion.
{ War may decide and determine por.
mancntly questions Of policy, but
'ncvcr questions Of right. A lcgiti-
mate result Of the late war, we believe,
was the settlement forover--in this
country-of tho policy Of secession as
"a practical mode of redress against any
'usupation on the part Of the Federal
Government"

We have nothing Of interest

rumorS are afloat as TO q divis-

Roadway has yet been made

for the sole benefit of would he
office holders. A little town OF
seven hundred people, for the

few of its citizens with the Par

On Wednesday evening last,
Constable Chasteen, of Ward S.

from J. a. Moore, Esq, two
white men charged with horse
stealing. They are now in
