President Juarez is recovering the
ground which he lost at the outset, with
great rapfdity. Having defeated Diaz IN
the west and driven him from the country,
be next turned his attention to Trevino IN
the north and beat the rebels in pitched
battle near San Luis, wounding their
leader, capturing their artillery and scat
te-ing the enemy in every direction. These
successes in the interior enable Cortina to
take a short ctt on the revofutionists in
the vicinity Of Camargo, which will soon
end in driving them across the river. into
Texas. This will terminate the last effort
to overthrow the best and only really lib
eral government that Mexico has been
blessed with for forty years President
Juarez can felicitate himself that he
achieved the liberation Of his country this
time solely by his own efforts, aided by
the conservative portion Of the Mexican
people No outside influence was invoked
by either side, the row and its suppression
being the work Of the Mexicans themselves.
Let us hope that this is the last and that
the game old President will now be left for
the balance of his term in peace.

The Shreveport Southeastern is deter
mined to have the stomach ache, and we
are not particularly interested in curing it
Of the disease, because stupid people de-
serve the gripes they bring upon them
selves by doing what common sense tells
them not to do. For the benefit of the
people of Shreveport, however, however,
we can say that the nominations for mu-
nicipal officers in that city which the Gov
ernor made last year were duly submitted
to the Senate according to law, but were
not acted on, owing to the want of time.
This was the reason why the Governor re-
appointed the same officers again-tirst,
he had to appoint somebody, and, second
ly, because the old officers seemed to give
satisfaction to the people. This is very easy
to be understood, we hope, by all the peo-
pie of Shreveport outside of the South
arsstern Office.

Douglas and Greeley.

Although it may not be easy to tell why
it should be so, two sad experiences seem
to suggest that our presidential candidates
should abstain from active participation IN
the presidential contest. Mr. Douglas and
Mr. Greeley furnish the only exceptions
to this conventional rule and both of them
died not long after the election in which,
first one and then the other were unsuc-
cessful. Both were men Of strong consti-
tuition, of robust health, and uncommon
energy it would be difficult to recall two
other public men who could do as much
labor as they, or do it nearly as well. Both,
too, were veteran politicians, and ought to
have been beyond the reach Of the too ex-
citing hopes and depressing disappoint-
ments that attend political life. Indeed
it is probable that neither OF them ever
had any sanguine hope Of being elected ;
Douglas certainly did not have such hope,
and if Mr.. Greeley allowed himself to en-
terrain it at all, he must have abandoned
it sometime before the plain lesson Of the
October elections The personal canvass
which each made may be regarded as the
most brilliant episode in his life. Then
speaking tours were not the result of toe
eager zeal in their own personal interest
they were prompted by pure and passion
ate patriotism. But Douglas died in the
very flower of his age, a few months, anG
Greeley, in the ripeness of unimpaireC
powers, a few weeks after the election
/ The herculean efforts that each made il
behalf Of his cause had not the shghtes
substantial effect. 1t seems impossible t
/ find fault with the conduct of either il
these personal campaigns, or to object t
any Of the lofty speeches made in them
And yet it would have been better 70
them, perhaps, and far better for tn
country if they had each abstained iron
them. The courteous and diplomatic ret
cence of Mr. Buchanan, and the passion
less imperturbability OF Grant indicate tn
true policy for presidential candidates
they must be silent, while the fighting
done for them.

THE TWO FRIENDs---A RABBINICAL
TALE
BIZ JOHN 6. SANE.

By JOHN G. SANE.
Good Rabbi Nathan had rejoiced to spend
A social Sc might with his ancient friend.
The Rabbi Isaac, In deyout accord
They read the Sacred Books, and praised the Lord
For all His merctes unto them and theirs
Until, one day, remembering some affairs
That asked his instant presence, Nathan said,
Too long my friend go close my soul is wed
To thy SOUL, has the silent lapse Of days
Kept me thy guest; although with prayer and
praise
The hours were fragrant. Now the time has come
When, all reluctant must hasten home
To other duties than the dear delights
To which thy gracious friendship still invites
We'll, be it So il so it needs must be,
The host made answer; "he it far from
To hinder thee in aught that Duty lays
Upon thy precious conscience. Go thy ways;
And take my bessingi-bnt, o friend OF mine.
In His name whom thou seryest, give me thiuel"
Already Nathan answered, had sought
Some fitting words TO bless thee; and thought
About the palm trees giving fruit and shade;
And in my grateful heart, D friend, prayed
That Heaven be pleased to make thee even so!
o idle benediction We'll do know
Thou lackeat nothing of ali perfect fruit
OF generous souls: or pions deeds that suit
With pions prayers. Well, know thine aims
OF hosptable shade exceed the palms;
And for rich fruitage, can that noble tree,
With all her opulence, compare with theef
Since then o friend, cannot wish thee more,
In thine own person than thy present store
OF Heavens best bounty, viii even pray
4 That-as the palm-tree. though il pass away
I By others, of its seed is still replaced
| So thine own stock may eyermore be graced
With happy and daughters, who shall be,
/ In wisdom, strength and goodness, like to thee =!

4 new departure by the President
Such is the report which comes to us from
W ashington, and we need hardly say that
it will be welcome news to the whole cOun-

departure by President Grant Is the very
thing that is most wanted and that will be
thoroughly appreciated. This was the
special object OF the coalition which united
on Horace Greeley as its candidate for
President, and this it was that gave to the
combination nearly all Of its political sig
niticance All the South asks, all she has
ever asked il that the same Constitution
shall be extended over the whole country !,

pie demand is that they shall have their
rights under the great charter Of Amerl-

the Southern States, and that they may
/ have it III their own power to put a stop t
the infamous system of spOliation to which
they are subjected, and which has addet

We trust that the first act in the new pol
icy will be not only a modification of tn,
laws, bat their absolute repeal, and tina
the Southern States shall hereafter hold tn

as those of the North II Gen. Grant reall

LAND SWiNDLERS.

There is reason to believe thai extensive
frauds have been committed by persons who
have sold to purchasers in the Eastern States
lands in the West, to which they had no valid
titles The papers of the Pacific States have
frequently referred to schemes, some Of which
have been openly advertised, intended to de.
fraud land buyers in the East by inducing them
to purchase lands to which the pretended own
ers had no legal rights. The Dubuque HERALD
saws the re exists in St. Louis, New York, and
other cities regularly organized band ofswin-
dlers, supplied with notorial seals, commissions,
and other appliances to gull the credulous, who
have been pursuing for wears the business OF
dealing in forged titles 10 Iowa lands. The
HERALD says it could give the names and resi-.
dences of men who regarded rich and
respectable in their own communities, who are
engaged in this nefarious business, and advises
non resident owners Of real estate in Iowa, es
pecialy in the northwestern corner of the State
to apply by letter to the Recorder OF the countie'
in which it is situate ], asking ifany changes arr
apparent upon their records in the chain ol
their titles.

As it Should be.

In Virginia, where the colored people are
less Influenced by the carpet-baggers than IN
most of the Southern States, excellent relations
appear to exist between the two races. At
Richmond the colored population made bill
liant demonstration on the anniversary OF the
passage of the Fifteenth Amendment, and their
procession attracted great attention. The best
possible feeling was manifested by those Th"
participated in the celebration, and by those
who were lockers on. There was a notable alb
sence of offensive notices in the procession
which was appauded vigorously by the white
spectators. The Richmond ENQUIRER, one OF
the Oldest Democratic papers in the South, re
fers to this occasion as an evidence OF the goo,
relations which prevails among the citizens o
all coors there, and makes it test for preach
ing liberality and tolerance, urging all to jolr
heartily in the work of restoring THAT sincer'
respect and confidence out of which alone cal
come happiness and good government.

THOUGHTS ON JouRNAk1sM.-Nob obody will
assert that newspaper should never assail a
mans character To lay down::any such rule
would be to deprive the press of three. fourths
of its usefulness, and give a large body of
knaves all but complete impunity. Nor should
an editor be required to know personally the
facts of every charge that he makes. If every
editor had to satisfy himself of the truth of
everything be published, newspapers would
cease to appear. Nor is he bound to give the
name Of everybody who critciseS the opinions
or public career of public men. 1t makes no
difference to anybody who writes the comments
which appear in a newspaper on facts OF gen
era notOriety. The question in this case is
not from whom do these comments come, but
are they sund? But when an editor deter
nounce any man as a thief, or embeZzler, or
fOrger or peculator, we believe the generally
accepted and only sound rule is that he should
be ready to produce the evidence OF the truth
of what he says, whenever called on by the
accused person. before any tribunal whatever
libel suit or no libel suit. He is bound to show
the documents on which he based his asser
tiOnS or produce the person whose word ht
trusted when he made them. Anybody who
asks an editor to allow him to make charges
OF this kind in his paper, but refuses to comt
forward in support OF them, if called upon, |.
unworthy of belief, and deserves no more pity
shelter or cOnnivance than any lurking AS
sassin or sneak thief. Sulking patriots, whit
are anxious to make "expOsures" of private
character, but unwilling to shoulder the re-
sponsibility of them, are very large class
Every editor is familiar with them, but we be
lieve it Is the general practice of editors to re
fuse them hearing. The Nation.
