THE CHICAGO T1mEs on aaEnLrY

The Chicago Times Of Saturday
morning, in doublo-leaded editorial,
takes decided grounds against Creole y,
who, it asserts, failed to unite the oppo-
sition to Grant, and whose election is
an impossibility. It demands that
his pledge to withdraw, in case his
candidates would not unite the opposi.
ton, should now DO fulfilled. 1t farther
Gays:
"The Cincinnati meeting having failed
to present candidate who can unite the
opposition against Grant, it becomes now
tho duty Of the Baltimore Convention to
furnish such candidate, either BY nom
inalion Of its swn or by initiating meas
urea for hold'nga general convention Of tho
opposition, under the style Of Q new polti.
cal organisation, and in which all tho sew
er~l parts Of the opposition may partioi.
pate ~ dsls1stes. Some method must b
adopted, some earnest effort must DO made,
70 remedy the lamsntable failure Of the
Cincinnati meeting, by presenting to tho
country Presidential candidate who can
unite I'll tho opposition 10 the candidate Of
corruption, which tho nomination Of Mr..
Greeley has only tended ~ more fatally
divide. And this it viii be the duty Of the
Baltimore Convention to undertake"

Gen. J. D. Cox, George He.dley,
aud many other Cincinnati Liberal Re
publican politicians, have united in a let

at Stelnway Hall, promising to unite ia
any feasible course for the defeat of
Grant and Greeley.
The Providence Journal says "No

THEN AND NOW.

The enemies Of President Grant,
who have put Greeley forward es their
representative ard their embodiment
Of what President should be, are
commended to the careful study Of the
following terso and emphatic utteranees
Of Horace on the 9Th Of January, 1871,
which occurred in y speech at the reor-
gauization Of tho Republican Com.
mittee of New York:
As to the administration Of General
Grant recognize no one % . Republican
who is not grateful for it, jud icious, sue
esssful, energetic efforts to procure the
ratification Of the fifteenth amendment,
that keystone Of our political arch, whore
by the fruits Of our great t'i:s"ph ove'
'he rebellion and slavery are sss- red and
perpetuated.
While asserting the right Of every Re-
publican to his untrammeled choice OF
candidate for next President until q
nomination is made, venture to suggest
that General Grant will be far better
qualified for that momentous trust in 1872
than no was in 1868. Such, gentlemen,
are the ideas and convictions which have
impelled me to take my place among you,
and accept the responsibility which you
have imposed upon me.

POLlTlCAL JOURNALISM.

I Tell 10, Brother Mitchell, 10 the g..
Cloud JOURNAL for Grant or Greeley :?
You Az Grant ticket ct your mast head
: but read svfsI 0sssleyiaA otherwise.
Don't b afraid, spit IL out.-1smes.
One of two things il very ap.
parent: either our contemporary has
not been giving The JOURNAL that
careful reading which every intelli-
gent man should, or else he is pit
iably slow in 'somprehending the
meaning Of plain English. For months
past this journal has advocated tho re-
nomination of Gen. Grant by the Re-
publican party, believing that his
administration of the government has
been sble and honest, and that bis re-
election for . second term would pro.
mote the peace and prosperity Of tho
country. That no will be the pomi.
nee Of tho Philadelphia Convention,
there can be no doubt, and this pr
per proposes to advocate his election :,
Is il has his nomination.
We are at = considerable loss to imAg.
iue what there has been in these COL
umls which has read "awful Greeley
ish," unless it may be that courteous
treatment Of MI. Greeley and the party
which nominated him may be liable to
that construction. If 50, our paper
will continue to have that reading. It
. only fair to the readers of a news-
paper that they should have a candid
statement Of the views Of political can
didates, Of oil parties, a. expressed by
themselves, and We incline to the
belief that the opinions Of newspaper
which adopts this course are apt to ex-
srcise much more influence for the party
itm.y favor than will those of one which
prefers to indulge in wholesale abuse
and misrepresentation Of its opponents
Let men understand all sides, and
from this knowledge form q deliberate
judgment as to which is right. We
have no fear, in face of all the facts,as to
the success Of the Republican party.
It is not necessary to keep from the
people the action of the Cincinnati Con-
ventlon, refuse place to its resolutions,
and comfort Mr. Greeley's letter Of &C.
oeptance in order to elect Gen. Grant.
He has = strength, based upon tho iu-
tellizeuce of the people, their appre-
ciation Of the benefits which have
resulted from his administration, and
their confidence in bis ability to direct
tho Affairs Of government still better
during another term, which will car
~ him triumphantly over all opposi-
ton. The more thoroughly the con.
ditious Of parties is understood, the
greater will be this strength.
s. A vigorous opening Of tho cam
paign At this time would be premature.
Al yet there is but one candidate 70,
tho Presidency 10 nomination, and hi
continuance in the field hangs on very
uncertain contingencies. More than
4 month must elapse before the meet
ing of ths Baltimore Convention, and
that will leave time enough for four
months campaign, which will give
opportunity for about a. much polit ical
squabbling Is most people care for.
