permitted, because we know that large
majority of the people Of the Northern
States never approved Of the course which
Congress pursued toward the South Mul-
titudes of honest and conscientious Re
pubicans disapproved, but they were too
indolent or too careless to break with
their party in order that they might give
expression to sounder views of the intel
lect and more generous emotions Of the
heart. That many thousands of Republi-
cans will be glad to take new departure
in the coming Presidential contest is not
and cannot be denied. They consider
that seven years of such political folly is
enough, and will not vote for its continu-
ance under man who seems to regard
the Presidency as the carpet baggers look

The Liberal Campaign Opened. A Grand
MarShaiijnu of Forces

We invite attention to the report of the
gathering Of Liberal Republicans, in New
York, on Friday evening, to listen to Sen
ators Trumbull and Schurz. 1t was re-
markabe not only as an immense popular
demonstration, but for the large number
Of prominent men, the brains and orking
force OF the republican party, who acted
as officers, sat upon the platform, or gave
their sympathy by letters. 1t is in vain to
endeavor to put ont Of sight as of no con
sequence such a gathering, got up with
out official aid, without patronage, with
out anything save the hearty good will of
the dissenters within party from the cor
ruptons Of its leaders 1t has a meaning.
The first popular response to the touch OF
the reformers has been most gratifying
and encouraging to them.
Two weeks will elapse before the Gin
cinnatl Convention, and in that time other
demonstrations will take place, giving
more fully the measure of public sym
pathy. and particularly Of republican
sympathy, with the liberal movement If
we mistake not the signs of the times and
the tendency of mems minds, this move
ment is to draw to it, as events develop
themselves, an unexpected strength The
honest men of the republican party have
been shocked at the late revelations of
administration policy in matters that touch
the national purse and national honor.
The proven reCklessness of expenditure
the exposed rapscity of robbery, the of
fetal indifference and Presidential &C
| quiesence, have given rise to the most
! deep seated indignation, and determin a.
ton to war upon such practices and upon
/ all who sustain them Therefore do we
expect to see the banner ct Liberal Re
/ publicansm hOnored and sustained By
| such a following as no political movement
/ has ever had in the same briei time Il
| those who are to have I he control ant
| guidance Of this organization Shall exhibit
the same prudence that they have already
shown, and il the Democracy shall be
guided by wisdom, the Grant dynasty Will
be overthrown as surely as the sun Of
! November shines.
