A Gush From Forney.

FoRNEY having been out OF office long
enough to feel disenthralled, like a bird
set free, begins TO gush again. Here is
his latest warble:
It's supreme pleasure that the same
people who elected Grant have also the
right TO CritiCise and censure him. We
are for him for President against the field
Against all incomers; but we are free to
say-treer than Mr.. Postmaster General
CreswelIs organ, the Baltimore American,
q few days ago-that il it Is necessary for
him to get out OF the way to save his
country from the rebel Democracy, we
shall ask him to do so; and when we do,
he will have already anticipated US. in
other words, the Republic must be saved.
and, before God! we believe to-day that
the best, il not the only man to lead US to
victory now, is the same quiet soldier
who led us to victory against the rebel
lion. All considerations demand his re-
election. His record in peace is not less
brilliant than his record in war. We
should be stamped with ingratitude to
the last syllable OF recorded time, II ever
we forgot Ulysses s. Grant. 5iw !
II this style OF argument is good for
anything it follows that so long as GRANT
lives, he must be President; and some
provision ought, therefore, to be made to
secure him life tenure in the Office
This would save the trouble Of. elections
and would likewise secure enduring re.
wards for faithful henchmen like ]. ". F.
But did FoRNEY ever reflect what Is to
become OF the country when GRANT dies,
as sometime he must. II "the Republic
must be saved" who will save 1t then?
Suppose the event should occur unexpect-
edly-as such events sometimes do-what
would become OF this American peopleH
1t is an awful contingency that ought to
receive Colonel formers prayerful pre-
vision.. Indeed, such Is the poverty Of
this country in the matter of statesmen,
it would seem that the plan Of salvation
would then be exhausted, unless Provi,
dGnce should raise up a ewsavior for
the Republic in Colonel FoRNEY himself.
Alas, on what slender thread
Hang everlasting thingsi

AN effort was made in the Second
Branch of Council last night further to
embarrass the Pittsburgh, Wheeling 4
Kentucky Railroad by tacking on to the
ordinance carrying out the former action
of Council granting right of way, a re.
quirement that the company build shops
within the city. 1t Is not quite clear
whether eparty moving in the matter
has property he wants the. company to
buy, or is simply animated by a purpose
to vcx the company and if possible to de-
lay the work. It's too late to make new
conditions Of this kind. The contracts
have been made and signed, the city
granted right of way without this re-
quirement, and she cannot, and ought not
II she could; to imposei 1t now.
