II. Passing from "antecedents." I come
now to tho "present position" OF the two can
didates, which is the subject of your next in
qury. II in any former particulars the two
are on an equality, yet in all substsntial re-
spects the obvious advantage is with Horace
Greeley. Each WAS nominated By Republi-
can convention, one at Cincinnati and the
other at Philadelphia, 80 that in this respect
they may aeem to be on an equality. But it
will not fail to be observed that the conven-
ton at Cincinnati WAS composed OF able and
acknowledged Republicans. many OF whom
have acted with the party from it's first for.
nation, who, without previous organization,
came together voluntarily for the sake of re-
form and purity In the Government; while, on
tho other hand, the convention at Philadcl-
phia was composed Of delegates chosen
who assembled to sustain what is known as
Grantism, being the personal government
and personal pretensions or Grant, involving
nepotism, repayment OF gifts by official pa
tronage, neglect of publ lie duty, abscntetism,
military rule, disregard of constitution and
law, with general untitness and indlgnity to
the coloreJ racial of which ia so unrepub-
lican as to make its support impossible tor
true Republicans. Therefore, tho conveD-
tion at Philadelphia. though calling itself
Republican, was LEGS Nepublcah in reality
than that at Cincinnati. The two platforms,
90 far as concerns especially the colured men,
arc alike i'll substance, but that OF Cincinnati
Is expressed in terms most worthy of the
equal rights it statos and claims: "We recog-
n,ze tho equality of all men before the law,
and hold that it is the duty OF Government in
Its dealings with the people to metc ont equal
and exact justicn to all. OF whatever nativity,
race, color or persuasion. religious or pOliti.
cal" In other respects, the platform OF Gin.
cinnatl is the most Republican, inasmuch as
ltsets ltselfagainst those unrepublican abuses
which have betn nursod by the President
into pernioiOns activity.
From tho two nominations and two plat
forms como to tho supporters OF the cand.
dates, and here look, first, at those immed.

lar support behind. Horace Greeley has

publicans, always earnest for reform and pu-
rity in Government, on Whose lives there is no

your own rights, you cannot Do Indifferent to
the blessings OF good government. II is for
you to consider whether the time has not
come for something better than the sword,
and whether character like Horace Greeley
does not give stronger assurance Of good GO
vernment than can be found i'll the insuiter of
the coIored race, already famous from the
rings about him and his plain inaptitude for
civil life. The supporters OF President Grant
compel Us to observe his offt noes aud short
comings. The comparison they challenge
Cannot be declined. 1t will be I0r others in
the present canvass to hold it before the
American people. Speaking nov for myself,
have to say that my ,oto will be given for
Horace Greeley; but III giving it 10 not 10 to
the Democratic party, nor aln any lees
Republican. On the contrary, am 80 much
OF Republican that cannot support a can-
didate whose conduct in civil lifU shows an
incapacty to appreciate Republican princi-
pies and whose administration is marked by
acts OF delinquency, especially to the color cd
race, by the side OF which tho allegations on
the impca chment OF Andrew Johnson were
technical and trivial. Unquestionably Prcsie
dent Grant deserved impeachment for high
crimes and misdemeanors. rather than a re-
nomination, and on tho trial it would have
been enough to exhibit his seizure OF the war
power and his indiGnity to the black republic,
with It's population OF 800, ,0C0 in violation OF
tho National Constitution and OF international
law. And here a contrast arises between him
and Abraham Lincoln. The latter, in his first
annual message, recommended the rocogni-
tion Of VIII It he called the Independence and
sovereignty OF Hayti," but it is at these that
President Grant has struck. Ono Of Abra-
ham Lincolns first acts was to put tho black
republic on an equality with the other
powers; one OF President Grants WAS to de-
grade it.
