The Press Philadelphia) says of Mr.. Gree
ley, after reiterating some good opinions of
him: Gle should know that all these fine
things cannot be said of him if he becomes
president The mere fact of being caEdi-
" date for that high Office has already brought
" him into contempt, and lowered the popular
" estimation of him as a patriot, the founder
of THE NEw-YoRK TRIBUNE, and an honest
"editOr." We can imagine no reason why
this should be so, or is so. Washington and a
majority of his successors were not lowered
in the public estimation, nor brought into
contempt by the Presidency. Charles c. Pinck-
ney, De Witt Clinton, Henry Clay and Daniel
Webster were not lowered in public estima-
tion even by being unsuccessful candidates
for President The Presidency makes no one
contemplate, though there are some whom it
finds and leaves SO. The Press ought to
evince more thought and more discrimination.

We have not noticed it before. but il appears that.
when Harvard University made Gen. Grant Doctor
of the Law of Laws, it bestowed its LII. ID. at the
same time upon the Rev James Martineau. Tho
folly of indiscrminately giving these degrees could
hardly be better illustrated. Here two men who
have nothing but their humanity and their diplomas
in common-the one profound scholar, philoso-
pher, and an eloquent preacher of the Gospel; the
other not profound scholar, not philosopher, and
not preacher of the Gospel; and yet each is made

The Fourth of July was celebrated in great style
at Chester, S. c.. and some extraordinary informa
tiOn was given by Judge Mackey. He said that he
had been to Washington and had enjoyed an inter
view with Gen. Grant who told him to say to s. tho
Republicans of South Carolina that he had sent his
infantry his cavalry and his artillery down there to
protect the people I; but unless there a speedy
change for the better in the affairs of the State he
would come with stronger pOwer"-i e., with moro
of his infantry his cavalry, and his artillery-and
he would if necessary, remand the State back TO
provisional government" SO it appears that the

the country, but can do what he pleases with tho

A new danger has appeared at some of the
seaside resorts. At various points, persons in
bathing have been attacked by paralysis or
symptoms of such disease. One or two fatal
cases which have occurred within the month
make it appear likely that these sufferers have
gone into the water with blood overheated,
with much indigested food in the stomach,
and while the sun was high. All of these con-
ditions are dangerous; and sea-bathers should
be warned that bathing Immediately after
eating in the heat of the day, or in state
of perspiration, is to the last degree hurtful.

The Result in North Carolina.
JOHN EITz,
Consul General.

We are at length enabled to announce
certainty that the Republicans have car
ried North Carolina. Gov. Caldwell and
the whole State ticket are elected by from
1000, to 1000 majority. The Legislature
is close. The Republicans would have
carried it on joint ballot but for the unfair
apportlonment of Senatorial districts by
the last Democratic General Assembly
The same is true in regard to the Congress-
ional districts. Fair play in the appor-
tionnent for the State Senate and Con-
gress would have given us the Legislature
and five out Of eight members of Congress.
As it is, we have elected three members of
Congress, and we have lost one district by
quite small majority and another by
fraud perpetrated by our opponent

Encouraging from New York.

The New York Herald since the death of
its senior editor has been leaning for Gree
ley. 1t is getting very lukewarm since the
North Carolina election. But it has cor
respondent travelling in interior New York.
He says in his letter he is Greeley man
and started out thinking Greeley was GER
tain to sweep New York. He writes as
follows:
l am sorely puzzled what to make out Of
the countrymen away out here in the west
ern portion of the State for they do rot
seem to be as strong friends of the Greeley
movement as / was led to expect and as
nine-tenths of the people in New York city
believe they are.
THE DEMOCRATS.
What struck me more than anything else
during my journeyings was the conduct of
the Democrats whom CHANGED at the inns
or depots to get into conversation with
No matter how small the place where /
stopped was sure to come across a few
Democrats who either declared that they
would not vote at all or out of sheer spite
they would vote for Grant. This found
to be the case among the old men especial
ly, who, in all probability, had never in all
their lives voted anything but the straight
Democratic ticket, no matter how good or
bad the nominations may have been.
In the Eighth ward of Rochester, which
has always been Democratic, thorough
canvass has brought to light the astound-
ing revelation that only fifteen Republic
cans will vote for Greeley, and that eighty
Democrats will vote for Grant! Take this
vote and calculate it by the rule Of three
and where will it leave the country?
/ talked with Democrats and Republi.
cans and Liberals, and roamed about to
find out just how the tide was running and
/ I must confess that my confidence in the
strength ofthe Greeley party in the country
became every day beautifully less and
small by degrees.
