History repeats itself, and 20 do occurran-
ees at Conventions. a
Hon. G. Washington .Julian's health was
too delicate to attend the Republican State
Convention at Indianapolis; hence he wrote
. letter signifying that he'd accept q con-
gresham .at-!arRe If rendered to him with any
degree OF uns nimity, and the document was
given 10 brother Jake and Pytheas johnson.
After having that letter peddled among the
delegates, and finding that George didn't
stand the shadow of chance, these feithful
SENATORS slipped up to the Journal Office at
midnight and procured the publication of
hop-vine dispatch, that sprung from their pro-
life brains, begging the Convention not to
nominate him-he didnt seass 1ics-health
bad. and 90 on.
This same unfortunate invalid got better
and went to Indianapolis the day previous
to the Democratic Conyention. He thought
he'd have better success through his own exc
ertious in pulling the copper wires. He made
. speech profering his services as . "stan-
dard -bearer"-talked pretty About Hendricks,
and wanted = mixed ticket Of Democrats and
Liberal Republicans; but all wouldn't do.-
ThssDemrcracy loved the treason AZ usual,
but despised George; and be agaiu failed

WHAT GRANT HAS TAKEN.

Sumner calls Grant .the greatest

to tell MS Just what gifts the Pres
ident has received aincs he Was
elected, but contents himself With

OF choice cigars, these sorehead
critics cannot mention . gift re-
eeived by the President, since the
beginning Of his Administration !.

accepted few gifts while General

words are those of a man con-

the national; debt, on the one hand,
has been reduced over three hun

and taxation on the other one hun

the honor and dignity of the ma

citizens Of all colors and all parties
freedom Of personal opinion and

has afforded proof of his zeal and
devotion to the public welfare.
Four years ago. when he was ask

voice OF the Republican party 10

vase, he Was, as he himself frankly
observes, = novice in the affairs
OF civil life. That remarkable
capacity for adminisil ation.' which
Secretary Stanton noted. has stood
him in good stead. But success

We make the above announce
ment, not to attract special no
tice, or to indicate extra-ofhcious
zeal, but because it expresses
OUR MOST EMPH A TIC
PREFERENCE, and We don't
see why we should not say 80.
Gen. Grant, in some eminent re-
spects, has shown himself as
much superior in civil as in mil
itary affairs. He has promptly
taken positions and assumed re-
sponsibilities which no mere
politician, Of the ordinary run
of our statesmen, would have
dared to do. Take for instance
his direct announcement in his
inaugural address in favor Of Ne
gro Suffrage. The party which
elected him, had lodged the
question in its platform. What
other men, outside Of the pro-
nounced Radicals, but would
have followed that example as
President, and lodged, or at
least postponed a declaration on
the object? But not so with
Grant. An old-tims Democrat
before the war, he at once de-
monstrated the soundness of bis
conversion, the frank heroism Ct
his NATURE as well as the high
est craftsmanship, by taking the
bull by the horns. 80 =. =
In like manner on the subject
of the payment Of the National
Debt, on which, also, his party
had trimmed and prevaricated.
he did not hesitate to take the
responsibility Of clear state
ment Of his position, at the i'm
minent hazard Of his popularity
Again, his putting the man
agement Of our Indian Affairs
in Quaker hands, shows a mind
much above the grade Of the

Grant.

We devote only short space to
the General. He is reported to
have said in late speech of his,
this and this only, that he did not
care personally anything about be-
ing reelected to the Presidency, but
that he simply desired to be inform
ed, by the result of the election,
what his countrymen thought of
him. 1t seems then, that the Gen
eraI looks upon the race merely as a
matter of personal interest to him
merely method by which he is to
receive the information as to what
the extent of his popularity is with
the American people.
From his stand point then, Presi-
dental elections are not held that
good men may be chosen to admin
lister good laws and good govern
ment, but they are simple tourna-
mental jousts in which Presidents
who have finished one term, are in
formed as to popular opinion con-
corning themselves individually
Such view of this momentOus con-
test, has never before, and we are
honestly of belief never will be
again entertained by a Presidential
aspirant. The Generals ability as
a civil ruler not always intensely
successful in our opinion, certainly
does not promise after his last eX-
hibition of it. to be held in very high
esteem by the admiring millions.
The General had better stop speak
ing, and smoke.

H'Although it is conceded by

~Although it is conceded by
the majority of the people of the
nation, that all legitimate and hon
orable business will be improved by
the election of Greeley. yet it must
be admitted there is one branch of
business that will be materially in
jured if not entirely broken up. But
no great revolution in politics Or
science has ever equally benefited
all. The greatest internal improve
ments or invention of machinery
have been opposed by individuals
for selfish motives. When the
art of printing was first invented,
there was cry raised against it
because it was feared that it would
injure the business of the cOpyist.
The railroad was opposed by the
stage driver the moving machine,
by the mower the sewing machine,
by the tailor and seamstress the
greatest blessings we enjoy were
opposed at first by interested par
ties. People do not stop to cOnsid
er the interests of each individual
but look to the good of the greatest
number, when any great public I'M
prOvement is contemplated. So will
the people in the election of Horace
Greeley for our next President.
What business will be injured by
the election of Horace Greeley p
Ans. The carpet-bag business.

interest of all classes that the party

Greeley is not So much the candi-

President, as he is the representa-

laws can hesitate to vote for him.
"Old things have passed away" and
a sacred duty rests upon every hon

to work against, vote against, and
rebule the bad men who would
keep in office by arraying sections
and races in bitter hostility, and
whose cry is, ''no clasping hands i'll
