GRANT AND WILSON,

The firm was changed yesterday at
Philadelphia. Grant and Coltax are
succeeded by Grant and Wilson. They
are authorized to settle the outstanding
business of the old firm, and desire that
nersons who are indebted to them for
offices and general favors will call and set
tie up. It is not stated why Mr.. Coliax
went out bat il is probable that the ext
gencies of the firm demanded something
more substantial than smiles. Howbelt,
the firm is changed and while felicitat-
ing itself on the profits Of the past, ap-
peals to the publicto rally around the new.
Gentlemen who have spare horses, or
carriages, or wheelbarrows can dispose
of them at the office of Grant and
Wilson. They are prepared 70 do
large business in gift enterprises, and
will spare no effort to accept everything
that is offered. In the midst Of their
duties they will notforget amusements'
One of them will talk horse and drive
fast teams at Long Branch, while the.
other will rampage around the country
generally. After the army shall have
been started down on the Southern peo-
pie who are too poor to give gifts there
will come sweet repose. 1t will be de-
liehtful to hear the crack Of the soldier
rifle bringing down a citizen Of the
South as he floats along upon the bosom
Of his native streams. What amuse-
ment TO see old men and young
men flying to the mountains to
escape the onset Of the army, leaving
furnishing women and children behind
1t will be jolly firm. 1t will have
power to COMPEL business, but still it
may bankrupt ITSELF The people upon
whom it relies for its support may turn
against it, smite it. kick it to the dogs
and spit upon it. Wilson brings an ad-
ditional stock of malice, and Is better
hater than the disgraced Colfax. Thus
reinforced, the business win begin.
Time will tell how it will come out.
Meantime the country is becoming weary
of the demands Of the concern upon its
resources. The people, to feed the
fame of the nepotists desires do not
mind contributing small amount, but
they are resolved to stop paying out
millions.

BALTIMORE.

And now for Baltimore. Cincinnati
and Philadelphia are over, and Balti-
more only remains. How about it? 1t
will be Democratic, but it may take an
enlarged view Of the situation and act
only for the country. That is the pa
triots hope, the good mans prayer.
There will be FIRE and brimstone men
there all pulled up with the Importance
of the honors they SO briefly wear, who
will lift up their voices and rant and
rage for the nomination Of Democratic
candidate. But another class of men
will be there-mep cool as calculation
and sagacious almost as fate. 1t is
hoped that they viii make the majority
and so shape affairs as to bring
on a single handed contest between
Grant and Greeley. i is reported
that Belmont has expressed him
self against Democratic lnomina-
ton. 1t is, however, Of little con-
sequence what Belmont or any other
prominent Democrat says or does His
view is Of interest only so far as il indi-
Gates the temper of the Convention.
NapoIitical body ever assembled under
the shadow Of graver responsibility
than that which win rest upon the Balti-
more Convention. Il cannot be blind
10 the condition Of Affairs. 1t cannot
fail to perceive the road 10 victory, Ia
such victory at least as the defeat Of
Grant would be. win It have the pa
triotism to pursue it, or will it plunge
headlong into a contestwith candidatt
OF its own while the Democracy are gen
orally, almost universally, pledged Il
or are bent on voting for Greeley |
so, then farewell to the Democratic
party. II had victory within its GRASP
but preferred defeat aud destruction
We hope for better things.
