Vhshbh ~ "u 1fuOie w
the crusade made BY several Senators,
and also few editors, against Goner-
al Grants Administrations, is truo to
the letter, aud speaks the sentiments
Of the people evcryw here. They be-
live the Republican principles, aud
will sustain them, regardless Of the
attacks Of disappointed men, in and
cat Of Office, who care moro for self
qualification than the success Of the
principles; aud who seize on popu.
lar prstcxts TO cover up their selfish
propeusities and disappoiu,msnts:
From this timo to the assembling
Of Republican Convention the attempt
to stain tho character of tho Presi-
dent, and to stigmatize him to the
country rs uoit for another term,
will DO incessant and malevo'ent. But
10 has been in the Wilderness before
and he came out Of it, They mis-
take profoundly and seriously who sup.
pose that the people forget, or that the
mists Of calumoy that gather about
every Administration havo obscured
the remembrance of the days Of Gen.
Grant was the hope Of America and Of
liberty. Coming fresh from tho camp
to the Cabinet, has bas ho be
trayel one of the great pri uciples Of
the party which lifted him to power
Differing from many honored leaders,
as they differ amoug themselves, has
he forgotten tho emancipated race,
OF the houor Of the nation, or tho well
fare Of the people I? Silent by nature
and by tho conditions Of its position,
has he to one honest mini seemed
guilty ofany Of the foul charges that
have been thundsred against him ?
:here will certainly be an Indignant
reaction in tho mind and heart Of the
Amcricao people against the relentless
effort to ipjure the gool name Of the
President Of the Uniied Sta'os-a reac
ton which will surely and triumph
antly re.clect hin, ~ o mau who, in
tho fierce fight" Of tho intensest par.
~ animosity, as is the long doubt ot
the war, has shown himself modest
aud faithful servant Of his country.'
The people, however, can easily
see through these ilimsy pre,sxt and
will not tolerate factions opposition,
merely 10 crafty personal spleen, in
my member of the party, regardless ol
the services he may have heretofore
rendered to tho Republican party.
,. PRINCIPLES befOra MEN, is the
motto Of every honest Republican in
the country-and he who stauds By
these principles is preferable to th,
most talented man in th, country
" no shown that be eau swervo from
those principles to CRAFTY private NAL

Queen Victoria.

Following closely upon tho report Of
the arrest ef tho apo;hseary Of Posen
for supposed conspiracy against the
life Of Bismarck, comes tho arrest Of .
wild Iiishman for insulting the Queen
Of England, aud in the act Of pointing
q pistol at her head.
1t il said that the pistol was not
loaded, and this is an evidence Of the
insanity Of tho boy. We arc glad that
tho queen was not injured. She is Que
of the best living sovs:eisns, AMI the
affection which her people feel for her
is Just tribute to her worth. The Fe-
naa cause will not be aided 10y this
cowarily insult to Victoria. The moau.
est and most eowardly way to gain
political advantage is through assas,
sination, AMI no matter how good the
cause, it is ruiuous to call upou MIR
der as an ally. The crazy fool who was
arrested by the queens attendants, will
not be severely dealt with, as his actions
do not prove malicious design, aud.
therefore, it should not servo to in
crease tho severity Of tho government
against the Fenians.

A NoICG FROM KANSAS. AT the
Republican State Convention Of Kan
sas the other day, a full delegation to
the Philadelphia National Convention
was chosen, with tructions I" to vote
for the patriotic President and citizen
soldier, U S. Grant, whose aeministra-
ton has brought US degree Of pros.
perity at home and dignity abroad
which !: would be suicidal to interg..ipi;;
or inte,fsrs with until time has been
given to complete tho work so well be-
gun and so auspiciously prosecuted to
the present time" Th, prospect is
now that the denomination Of General
Grant will be as easy and emphatic as
was the renomiDation Of Abraham
Lincoln in 1864, and on the same
ground, that timo must be given him
in our homo and foreign affairs to COM
plete tho work so we'll begun.

Strange rds,

Australia abounds in strange things and par
ticularly in animal forms, singularly deviatng
from all other types on other continents.
Among them the bird called cipoz mound
builder, is truly remarkable on account OF it's
habits and peculiar instincts The male and
female concur in the construction Of a mound
OF leaves. grass and materials that in their de-
cay generate heat They seem to know exac-
tly when warmth will be evolved by the ohem-
cal disntegration. On the top they excavate a
hole and into it an egg is dropped. Some Of
the mounds are twelve feet in circumference by
three in height Each egg to the number Of
eight is artistically lodged and covered with
loose sand. All this is done in the darkness Of
night 80 that no eye of an enemy may know
where the treasure is hidden Both parents
then pursue an earnest plan for securing the
propagation of new generation with degree
Of precision, skill and apparent knowledge of
certain natural laws that imply a reasoning
faculty. Thus the eggs are il clbated without
the detention Of the mother bird on the nest in
climate that would be fatal to her in conhne-
ment
