LET THEM GO.-The st. Louis Democrat makes
the following timely and sensible remarks about
coaNing dissatisfied Republican politicians to stay
away from Cincinnati
1--WE protest against the coaxing process to
which some of our cotempOraries seem disposed
to resort, for the sake of retaining few doubt
ing Thomases in the Republican party. To all
and singular the gentlemen who contemplate the
Cincinnati chute, we say: Coon the double
quiek. We hear much of men who "helped to
build the Republican party" and now threaten
to desert it-Horace Greeley, Lyman Trumbull
i. Gratz Brown, andsthe like persons. They owe
the party much, and if they repndiate the public
debt, the party is rich enough to stand the loss.
But the party owes them nothing. While the
connection lasted they gained mnch and lost
nothing; and so, when they tell us they will take
their leave. we reply in the language of Lord
Hamlet, You cannot take from me that with
which would more willingly part withal." The
November elections will give them true esti-
mate of their past value leaders and party ma
kers. When they find the majority for the Phil
adelphia nominee considerably greater than ever
before given for Republican candidate, they
Will realize that party can do without "lead-
ers' much better than leaders can do without
parties.'

WHAT THE FARMERS THINK.-The Cambridge

an influential farmerof that county on, the politi-

ported him when nominated, and have found no
fault with his administration, have not been

upon his administration, which seem to me so
thoroughly personal; the conduct of the Chicago
Tribune, which does not seem reliable Republi-
can leader, and the attitude of the "lberalr Re-
publicans, so much in accord with the Democrats.
incline me to he decidedly in favor of the re-
nomination of President Grant at Philadelphia
Because cannot see reason i'm the conduct Of the
administration for the attacks and their bitter
opposition, they seem to me to be for personal
ends which should be opposed; and because tlfer
attitude looks toward coalition with the Demo-
Gratis and division and destruction of the Repub-
lican party, can have no sympathy with them

GREELEY has a winning way Of receiving nom-
nations Just at the times when he has no earthly
chance of being elected. We believe that this in
stance will prove no exception to the rule But
whatever may lie said against GREELEY, his cleo
ton would perhaps be better than that of Dem
ocrat for he would carry out, as far as possible,
the leading Republican ideas. The great danger
would he, that the Tammanyites who now have
him in charge would take possession of the Gov
ernment, and make of the nation what they have
made of New York City. But he has his weak
nesses, and might be honeyfuggled into going
back on the principles he has been preaching all
his life The only safe plan is to stick to the Old
Republican organization, and re-elect GRANT.

The last Eaton (O.) Register contains an obitu-
ary notice Of an old Democratic patriarch of Twin
Township. In its "reminiscences of early days, it
is remarkable for what it does not relate Of his
history, wherein much interesting biography Is
omitted. 1t might have told how, at the begin
ming of the war of 1872 he sketaddled from Leban-
on, to escape the draft; how he was afterwards
drafted in Preble, and when the officer went to
serve the notice upon him, he found him hid in
the bake-oven. 1t might have told how be hired
as substitute, man who became the father Of
prominent citizen of the County at the present
time, and when the subttitute received his dis
charge and his bounty, the patriarch sued him for
the bounty, and TON. CoRwIN was employed to
defend the case, it being CORwIN's first law case
in Preble County. 1t might have related the lit
tie incident of a neighbor coming along by the
field where the patriarch wasat work, during those
troublous times, and for sport, telling him how
the Indians were coming aud numbering few
miles away; and how the patriarch skedaddled
for safe quarters leaving his team in the field
and his family TO look out for themselves. 1t
| might have told how a company of men was rails
ed to go to the aid of the settlers in neighborng
County, who were being butchered by the Indians,
aud how, when the company was ready to march,
the patriarch curled up with the belly-ache, and
could not move, remaining sick until the company
was ont Of reach. These, and many more similar
incidents, might have been related, in the writer's
engaging style, assisted by his fine memory of
early events in the County; but they have been
left unsaid, and thereby the biography has been
divested of much of its interest. q
Many of those Democratic patriarchs of Twin
were rare old felows-Hessiaus captured from
the British army; Tories in the Revolution;
siirks and towards in the war of 1872; and their
descendants Copperhead sneaks during the Rebel
lion. They always roll up majority in Twin
Township, that does honor to the memory of such
illustrious aDcestors!

The Hartford Cosrasf furnishes this practical
illustration Of Senator Fenton's passion for re-
form in the civil service, and his determination
to go clear to Cincinnati in order to have his
yearning for purity gratitet:
AT the beginning of his term. Gen. Grant had
full confidence in Senator Fenton, and accepted
his advice without hesitation. But the appoint
ments made at his recommendation were probably
the worst, taken a whole, ever presented by
Senator The writer hereof has list Of
"Frenton's appointees,' whOdefaulted. .defrauded,
broke down. abscouded, or otherwise deposed for

them are in the penitentiary. Gen Grant lost

them too long, or that when he once decides that

II Democratic paper, after giving glowing
account of the Cincinnati Convention, and full
some eulogies of the candidates, winds up with
the remark, that "the Democracy have nothing
to do but to watch the progress of events" This
means that they must watch their chance till
things get mixed up, then bring ont q ticket of
their own, and run it in through the divided ranks
of the Republicans. This is encouraging to the
liberals
