No nomination for the vice-P Presidency
would receive warmer support from the
masses of the Republican party, North
and South, than that of Jno. +. Lewis,
United States Senator from Virginia. 1t is
true the public career of this gentleman
has been short, yet it has been illustrated
by his fearless devotion to the Union,
as member Of the Convention that at
tempted to withdraw Virginia from the
Union. He not only voted continuously
against secession, but he fearlessly refused
to affix his name to the ordinance. During
the entire rebellion he remained true to his
country, though easroned Nth pe,ils for
so doing of no ordinary character. In the
return of peace and the restoration of the
State to its proper position, Mr.. Lewis was
selected by the people Of Virginia as their
Lieut. Governor, he was then made Senator.
His firm and patriotic course won the es-
TEEN and admiration of all classes and par
ties. A descendant Of the distinguished
General Andrew Lewis, the contemporary
and friend of Washington and Jefferson,
his efforts to save the Union, compare most
gracefully with those of his ancestors to
form it. The South is entitled to repre-
sentative in the Executive department, and
no one is better fitted to be its representa-
tive than the gentleman named.

out, and the system thoroughly established
in his native state, she would never have
lost her ascendency in the galaxy of states,
but would ever have continued to be the guild
ing star of the Republic. What prophetic
vision must this great man have possessed
to thus discern the future and to foresee,
that system of free common schools was
an essential concomtant of an enduring
Republic. Let us thank kind Providence
that the idea of popular education, SO
long. ago proposed, is ho longer in embryo,
but has become in the native state of its
protector, grand, living utility, and is now
exerting its elevating influences over all.
Thomas Jefferson is the author of our
decimal system, introducing dollars, dimes
and cents, in the place Of pounds, shillings
and pence, which system is destined to be
adopted by the civilized nations of the
world. He also introduced into our legis-
lative bodies a system of parliamentary
rules, by the use of which the business of
legislation is greatly simplified and facili-
tated. He was Secretary of State under
Washington, Vice-President with Adams,
and for two successive terms filled, with
distinguished honor, the highest position in
the gift of the people. We have thus
briefly sketched the leading events in the
life of one of the most pure, wise, patriotic
and devoted men, that any nation or age
has produced. He died, after a short ill
ness, July 4th, 1926, just half century
from the day, that was rendered memorable
by the adoption of the Declaration of INDIE
pendence.

almost every nook and corner of social,
civil, political, commercial, and religious
life, and exciting the frcest passions of
all classes, he was foremost and always
faithful, when it cost much to be SO,
for both political parties, the great
commercial interests, a large part of
the Christian ministry and of the
churches, were not Anti Slavery, much
less abolitionists. Through all the
struggle, till the final victory, he was
faithful and good and powerful with
his pen, neither bought with money,
frightened by threats or seduced by
offers of place and honor
Always taking the part of the poor,
the unfortunate, the friendless. he
aided them by his sympathy, advice,
and money; sometimes imposed upon,
bat ever saying" better to give to many
imposters " than let one worthy broth
er suffer always in the van Of reform,
maintaining the rights of the laborer,
the migrant, the slave, and of women.
He stands before the American people
the most remarkable and wonderful
example of an intelligent, perseyering,
and successful editor ever known in
this or any other land, having written
on q great variety of subjects Of vital
importance, with fewer mistakes and
less to take back or regret, than any
other.
Much more might be truthfully
added. But hasten to ask. Which
of these lives, examples, works, shall be
held up and urged on the American
youth: the man who, by his own in
domitable industry, intelligence, and
perseverance, has not only achieved n
noble education and standing in the
front rank of journalism but who has
done more, as an educator, for honesty,
truth, temperance, chastity, morality, as
well as National politics and Republi-
can government, than almost any other ;,
who never took bribe or gift to blind
his eyes who never was accused Of
fa'sehood whose fiercest political enc
mics dare not charge bin with dishon>
esty; or the man, educated on public
charity, made prominent only 10y war &,
not given to temperance WHO is pois-
oned through and through by tobacco,
as H. Wilson testifes; who has taken
many gifts who has been a partaker
with the thieving Murphy; who has
never cast Republican vote who has
never been known to'be imposed upon
by poor unfortunates because Of his
known kindness and generosity; who
has never written or uttered remark
able sentence on any subject? !?
Look on this picture, and then on
that. Which shall you wish your son
to initiate? Whose example shall be
elevated to the gaze Of the American
youth for the next four years?

THE REV. w. BEECHER ON THE
PRESIDENTIAL NOMINEES.
what Are the Lessons to Young Men
Taught by the lives OF the Two Cam
didates for the Presidency,
TFrom the Chicago Tribune.l

The attainment Of the highest
position in America, as the result of the
suffrages of great and Intelligent free
people, is an event unprecedented in
the history of nations Kings inherit
by descent, or take the throne by
military power; bat here man rises from
obscurity, without family or name, or
wealth, or friends, to a power greater
than that of an Emperor.
The history of such phenomenon is
most instructive, and the example most
powerful as an educator Of ambitious
youth for good or evil,
Take first the case Of Grant: Sent
by some friends to tho military schools
of the Nation, although exhibiting no
special intellectual ability, he graduates
only respectfully as to the attainmen:s
He retires to private unsuccessful
business life, doing nothing, saying
nothing, writing nothing to benefit
society Neither 10 art, or science, or
morals, or education, or political
economy, do we hear of him but,
during the war, he comes to the front,
receiving all the men and means he
asks for; leads our army to victory,
crushes the Rebellion, and becomes
General of the Army Of the United
States and President Of the Nation
The only lessons taught are First
secure, by the influence Of friends, an
an education at the public expense J;
second, wait for a war, and fight, and
rise to command if you can and you may
become President.
Now, what is the moral effect of
such lessons on our young men Are
they Republican, or desirable, either
morally ar civilly?
But, in contrast with this, behold
youth brought to labor, acquiring an
art and an education by his own labor,
patience, and perseverance. without
friends, or patronage, or wealth !;
pushing his way, in our chief city,
amid the busting, striving, selfish
throng establishing a journal, doing
his own type setting and press-work,
writing his own editorials,
occurring items of news and Of business
employing his men, and as his paper
and means grow, selecting his writers
and the employees of bis Office without
capital, and against powerful competition
and partisan strife and misrepresentation
steadily gaining friends and influence,
Taking ground from the start, against
the use of intoxicating drinks, by his
own consistent example, clear, earnest,
and cogent writings, he carried with
others, the Temperance cause on to
to! great success.
Heshad always advocated the disuse
of tobacco and opium, luxurious living,
and sinful and injurious amusements ;
has advocated industry, honesty,
truthfulness; frowned on cruelty,
injustice, and oppression, by whomever
practised, End, by the most powerful,
clear, and puneent editorials, enforced
by his own consistant example sought
ever the best good of his fellow
co untrymen. In the great Anti-SIavery
etruggle,-the greatest moral, political
an physical contest the world has ever
known extending in its ratifcations to
