MISCELLANEOUS POLITICAL NOTES.


General Grant has been endorsed by the colored
republican citizens of Pttsburg in general council
assembled
Van Trump, democratic member of Congress
from Ohio, recommends the democracy to 'spurn
the bride" OF afilliation with any other party and
trust to its own principles for regaining power. On
this plan that period will arrive about the time the
last trump Is sounded.
The Cincinnati Comrnercial with singular candor
for a republican print, says it would prefer Adams
ILL., to Grant l. twice.
The Chicago Times (democratic), in making the
announcement that Governor Palmer OF Illinois is
no longer a candidate for denomination by the
Republican State Convention, to be held on the ed
of May, expresses the belief that If he be nominated
by the liberalism event not at all improbable-he
will be the next Governor; for, adds the Times,
sunless the Cincinnati Convention commit blunders
that now seem next to impossible nothing is surer
than that the liberals will sweep the State Of Illinois
with popular tornado"
The San Francisco Republican administration
AYERS that there is no reason to doubt that the
great majority of the republican party in California
are heartily in favor OF the reelection of General
Grant.
No white man is to be elected to State Office in
South Carolina, except, perhaps, the Governor the
coming year. 1t is now the white man and not the
Niger who is ION de fence"
The Chicago Interocedn administration states
as little bit OF Presidential gossip, that at pri-
vate meeting OF prominent democrats in that city
lately, including w. F. Storey, Thomas A. Hen
bricks, Daniel voorhees,, Samuel Marshall and
James Robinson, it was determined to recommend
Judge Davis for the Presidency. George II. Pendle-
ton was not present, but subsequently gave in his
adhesion to the determination.
The Hartford Times thinks the New Orleans Re-
publican makes sad typographical blunder when
1t speaks OF Governor Warmoth our 'enterpriz-
ing thief" instead OF chief. This is about as bad a
blunder as that where a Western ant-administra-
ton paper speaks of noble Senator from New
York as senator Cackling.n II meant as joke
it was in very bad taste.
The st. Louis Republican passivist says "the
Cincinnati movement has become strong enough
not only to take care OF itself, but to take Of
those who commit themselves to it's keepingn Who
is the turnkey Of that donjonkeepa
The st. Louis Democrat administration asserts
that 'if all the men who want to be nominated for
either Governor or Congressman at large by the
democratic Convention in Missouri should vote the
ticket the democrats safe for big majority" 1t
is about time for the political locusts to begin to
swarm all over the country, and the effects OF their
The Cincinnati Times republican, declares that
"the democrats OF Ohio are Enthusiastically for David
Davis, and will stand Andy Curtin" When the cur
tain rises at Cincinnati the Presidential perform
ances will begin.
The Cincinnati Times regrets to sec fine abilities
wasted on an effort to bring out Charles Francis
Adams as a Presidential candidate, and says he
cannot be nominated at any convention. Is this not
snubbing s.the Hubn rather summarily2
A Washington correspondent of the Cincinnati
Times states that Judge Davis for President and
Governor Curtin OF Pennsylvania for Vice Presi-
dent is the last concession of the democracy to the
liberal republicans. George II. Pendlcton, leader
of the band.
The Louisville Courier Journal says "Scalawag
Is native Southern man, That settles it.
The Memphis Appeal passavist) boldly declares
that "Shoud the Cincinnati Convention heed the
voice Of the people, instead Of consulting the con-
temptible aspirations of asprants for office,
it will be the instrument Of preserving the
country from corruptionsts, calm the contendlng
waves of faction, unite democrats and liberal re-
publicans, and combine, In fraternal unity the
patriots Of all parties in opposition to Grants cor
rupt dynasty" When all these things occur at a
political convention it will be time to look out for
the millennium.
