Let it be remembered that the c


Let it be remembered that the char
acter OF the.next Administration will
not depend SO much oil the man elected
to the Presidency, as on the party that
supports him. His Cabinet officers,
who win engineer the different depart
ments of Government. and constitute
his chief and most influential advisers
and couiselors, will be selected from
the party that elects him. But the
President could do little without the
support Of Congress. In case of the
election Of Greeley, the result would
not be simply the elevation OF him,
personally, with all of his vagaries,
contradictions and whims to the Presi-
Dental chair, but it would be placing
the party in power which supports
him. And look at the composition of
that party: The old Democratic party
and few renegade and dishonest Re-
publicans, are It's elements. The
Democrats, in sympathy, manner Of
thought, prejudice, habit, ambition,
are about the same they were before
this unnatural coalition was formed.
They were induced to yield their IN
dividuality as an independent organi-
zation. toyield their nmae, but the spirit
they chung to. They are far the more
numerous in the Greeley party, and
therefore he would have to govern
mainly through them. They would be
appointed to most Of the offices. and
their policy would be the leading guide
i'll shaping his acts. With the ilistery
of this party before us-its State
rights and secession doctrines its re-
bellion record its opposition to the
reconstruction measures its hatred Of
and disposition to oppress the negro /;
its opposition to the Constitutional
Amendments ; its positions upon the
financial questions; Indian question;
home and foreign policy, etc, would
it be safe to intrust the affairs Of the
Government IN their hands? Under
the policy and guidance Of President
Grant, the countryhas been savedfrm
destruction, aimed both at home and
abroad, and has been most wonderfully
prospered. Step BY stepin This work has
he been met by the most determined
opposition from the Democratic party.
Grant and the Republican party saved
the country from the destruction which
Southern Democrats tried to bring
apon iton Southern battle fields. They
saved the country from the Legislative
policy Of the Northern Democrats in
Congress. To-day freedom is vouch-
saftd to every citizen; our flag is a
protection at home aud abroad; we
are at peace with all mankind;
legislation is humane and progressive !;
economy is strictly regarded in the
management Of finances; capability
and honesty are te recommendations
for official preferment. In every step
leading to these results, and more,
Grant has been opposed by the Demo-
Gratis. Can the American people afford
to elevate such party, bearing such a
character and record. to power, by
electing Horace Greeley to the Presi-
dency? Never. The mission, God.
given, we believe, of the Republican
party, is not yet consummated. Work,
for the living present and for posterity,
1t l,as yet to do. u, y. Grant is its
chosen leader to guide in the execution
Of this work. Let every voter, who
loves his country. forget not to poll
vote for this truest and ablest Of her
Republican friends, next Tuesday.
Northern Alabama is alive with a
Liberal sentiment exclaims

probably comes from burning school,
