Z. D. Mansfield in the Cincinnati Gazette.

Wheather President Grant shonld
be re. elected or not is matter for
the consideration of the people. But
certainly his enemies have, as yet
given no reason why he should not
be. They have pursued him with q
malignity which has not been exhibit
ted since tie time of jefferson. They
have talked of his taking presents )"
of appointing his relatives; of going
down to cattage on the sea shore;
of his having stock in a stone quarry,
and half dozen other pitful things
Of that sort, of which the most pitful
is that any manly man should not be
ashamed to utter them. And who
are til uttered by! BY men who
struck at the flag Of their country, or
sympathized with those who did: by
protesting Republicans disappointed
of Office, or who have been turned out
of office because they were incompe-
tent. This is the weakness of human
nature. 1t is the vermin generated in
the name of lion!
In the meanwhile the country goes
on in it's grand and stately march,
prosperous beyond any nation of the
earth, and interrupted in it's career of
glory only by such an organization
of dishonesty as we have seen in the
Democratic party of New York.
Europe will quote it against us; but
we shall set of the honest verdict of
an indignant people, reused by the
energy of freedom.
One of the most amusing farces
performed upon the public stage is
that of nominating Republicans 10 de-
feat Grant, or Of hunting up some
Democrat never before heard of to
do the same thing. Scott, Palmer,
O'Connor are trotted out like nags al
| a horse auction, to see who will bid
the highest. Not much of bid has
yet been made for any of them. Scott
is practical man, with more execu
tive talent than Pierce and Buchanan
put together; but the people won'I

no matter who runs him. Palmer

cit is not GsANT who il reducing
the public debt" says a Democratic
paper, 'but the people and to them,
and not to GRANT, belongs the cred
it." In other words, whatever ofhon-
esty there has been in the collection
of the national revenues and of econ
omy in their expenditure, is due to
the people, and not to the president.
Yet this same Democratic paper cries
out against GRANT that he is respon-
sible for all the frauds in the collec-
ton of revenues, and in the depart
ments, that have been charged. That
is fair specimen of Democratic log
ic and consistency-holding the Pres
idency Responsible for all that is bad,
and denying him credit for whatever
is good We do not forget that the
rule works both ways; that if the ad-
ministration is credited with the good,
it must also be charged with the bad.
But that the administration is eco
omical and honest is only another
way of stating the fact that it is root
ing out corruption and thievery. The
measure OF the success in the direction
of honesty is the mersure of success
against disaonesty'-Cincinnati Ga

THE REASON WHY DEMO-
GRATIS WANT SHERMAN
m DEFEATED.

In recent private and confden-
tial conversation with a leading Dem
ocrat of Ohio, and prominent friend
of ours, who has long been intimate
ly acquainted with Senator Sherman,
after expressing high personal re-
gard for him, he frankly admitted that
Mr.. Sherman is very shrewd poll
tician, tireless worker and unqu.s-
tionably the ablest statesman in Ohio
and influential member of the United
States Senate and, that for these rea
sons, and not because they hate his
unwavering Republicanism more than
that of any other man, they would be
very glad to get rid of him.
Here is the true secret why the De-
mocracy are so ambiti Gus for his de
feat and the substitution of some 9th
er Republican, inferior in ability
and without his great and varied leg
islative experience. If we could ac
compiish this result, said he, smiling
ly, it would be Democratic victory
Of national Importance.

The Policy of"Good WILL


To the present administration be-
longs the distinguished honor of hav-
ing taken the initiatory steps which
have resulted in the establishment of
a system of international arbitrament,
by which questions between this na-
ton and Great Britain shall be adjust
ed, and which promises to be accept
ed as the rule of all civilized govern.
ments. 1t is difficult to conceive OF
any action by mere human authority
of greater moment to mankind in
either its physical or moral bearing,
than this. The first Commission of
Arbitration under the Washington
treaty, soon to meet at Geneva, will
constitute an event in history more
hopeful of future fraternity and peace
among nations, than any other since
the proclamation, "On earth peace,
good will toward men," was celebrat-
ed by the Heavenly host" To some
this may seem like extravagant lam
guage; but we think careful review
of the case will justify our words.
None will dispute, that if the action
of these two powers shall so for COM
mend itself to other nations as to in
duce them to accept the policy thus
inaugurated, our estimate of It's i'm
portance will be shown correct.
Whether such shall be the result,
of course, remains to be known; but
indications clearly point in that direc-
ton, and we confidently expect to
see the war scourged nations of the
old world eagerly accepting the only
policy which can save them from both
the horrors of war and the exhausting
burthens of i'm mense "war- footings."
Second to this only in the extent of
its application, but not in the degree
of humanity and magnanImity involv
ed, is the reform in the Indian policy
of the government, inaugurated by
the present administration. In fact.
the real display of justice and mercy
shown in this domestic application of
the same principles. is far CRATER,
since in the former case was involved
the consideration OF national safety
whereas, in the latter, it was at most
a question of federation or eXtermina-
ton of troublesome savages, in which
comparatively small portions of the
country were directly concerned
the great matter being moral ques-
ton, resting upon the rights OF the
Indians and the duty of the govern
ment toward them. We might seek
of the Washington treaty on the
score Of heartless selfishness, as the
surest means of national security !;
whereas, on that basis, the most GER
tain and effeetual plan would be. the
prompt and indisEriminate extermina-
ton of the Indian tribes. The one
might spring from nothing better
than sagacious diplomacy; while the
only must be the suggestion of"good
will toward mcn."-Toledo Com
mercial.

We learn that there is an unwonted
activity, just at this time among the
9soreheaded' Republicans, ,on the SUBJ
ject of tho next Presidency and the
best means of "heading off Grant"
Caucusses are held daily and nigatly
and emisssries are sent out hither and
thither to feel the pulses of sympa
thizing soreheads in other cities, and
see what scheme can be concocted for
their mutual advancement and reliet.
We do not wish to dampen the ardor
of these industrious little insects, but
really they are wasting their energies
to no purpose, besides making them
selves ridiculous. The time has been
when few scheming politicians and
wire pullers could put their heads
together and cook up a Presidential
programme to suit themselves with
out consulting the people, but that
time has passed. 1t went out of
existence with the Albany Regency.
At the present day the people, and
not the politician 8, decide who shall
be President; and, unfortunately for
the soreheads, the people are all, or
nearly all, for Grant.-New York
Times

Hopeless.

The sweetened poison spread by
cunning Democrats to catch wander
ing Republican flies, is of no use.
One or two foolish or self willed
buzzers have dropped on it, but the
great mass show no disposition a to
feast on such dangerous sweets. The
consequent back action of the World
has been noted. The Louisville
Courier Journal of the same date
shows similar hesitation TO commit
ting the Democratic party to any
concession to recalcitrant Republi1
cans, and adus the confession that it
is useless to hope for. any considera

they will not come. 1t shakes its
head sorrowfully over their blindness
and perversity, but Is constrained to
admit the fact.
The Courier Journal thinks il sees
the reason for this unlocked for con-
duct But takes little consolation on
that account The element from
which the Democratic party expected
to get assistance is "that ''middle
class of people who have no ''hob-
bies and are indifferent to what are
.'termed principles in the political
vocabulary of our time-being de-

judice against it's attributed to bad

country has set its face" The prac-

have been startled by the appearance
of this shadow, which they deem to
be the adumbration of hidden pur-
pose, and they look with suspicion
on everything connected with the
Democratic party. The very exist
''ence of that party is an eye-sore tc
"them. They look upon it as the
"otherwise conservative and ever

The people see that; Grant is con
ducting the administration with strict
regard to honesty and economy.
The two years and half that he has
been in power. have been fruitful of
grand results. Notwithstanding a
heavy reduction in taxation, the
principal of the debt has been paid
off at the rate of 100 million . year.
Corruptionists, too have been follow
ed up and punished. without regard
to'partyor col sequences. Even at this
hour Investigations are being made to
Uncover crimes committed by Repub,
licans high in authority, and still
prominent in the party. To q record
such as this it would be impossible to
refer under Democratic admipistra-
ton. 1T was not obtainable even under
GRANTS Republican predecessor.
These are facts that the people see
and appreciate, and it is because they
believe GRANT to be an honest man,
and desirous of promoting the best
interest Of the people, that they favor
his denomination. To turn the peo-
pie against GRANT, therefore, cha:g gcs
m )re serious than Mr.. ADAMS has
presented must be brought forward !;
and to overturn the Republican party
it must be shown that the Democrat
i; party, or party made up of Dem
ocrats, mainly, can be trusted.
And now, in conclusion we have
only to say that if the Republicans
desire change in the presidency,
and modification of the principals
of the Republican party, they can
best secure either or both OF these
results by remaining in the party
that has brought the country thus
far safely through fiery ordeal.
GRANT or any other man is of little
consequence, comparativly, to the ma
ton, but e continued ascendency of
the Republican party is of vast i'm
portance. There is nothing in the
conduct OF the President that should
prevent other men from trying for
the nomination; nor is there any
thing in the personal or official rela-
tions of the President 10 the country
to justify movment that would en-.
danger the continued ascendency oi
the Republican party. ...
The true way, in our judgment, fol
Republicans who desire q new mar
for the presidency to succeed, is to
agree upon their man and press hi:
claims. The Office is one to whicl
there is no patent right. Neither
has any man a claim upon it by rea-
son of anything he has done. Per
haps some one will be found yet tina
, may strike the Republican voters a
the best man for the place. This il

cans should aim at, but the way t.
win is not through new party, four

Montgomery Blair, says that he
himself offered the Democratic nomi-
nation to Grant, previous to the last
Presidential election, but that Grant
being Republican, the arrangement
could not be made. That testimony
ought to silence the Democratic claim
that Grant wanted the Democratic
nomination, but failing in that direc-
ton accepted the nomination from
the Republicans. The fact that
Grant refused the Democratic nomi-
nation rendered him by Blair, possi-
bly, affords the clue to the bitterness
of Democratic hate of Grant, and the
willingness of the leaders to give up
everything if they can only beat
Grant.
