Presidential.

The time toy nominating candidate
for President is rapidly apr oachins.-
But little has thus far been said in this
State upon tho subject, but it seems to
b very evident that General Grant is
tho choice Of the people. He has faith
fully redeemed all the pledges which
he made upo" taking the presidential
Office. The government has grown
pure and strong under his administra-
ton. The work Of reconstruction has
progressed rapidly and peacefully
But little friction has been generated
by too close contact of the civil aud the
military powers. The application OF
each has been adjusted to the necessity
which required it, with great wisdom.
Localities are as free from atrocities Of
my kind as they were before the rebel
lion, and they are at the same time
learning, under a bencfcent admins
trstion, to conduct their business and
maintain the institutions of society
without the existence Of human slavery.
This is true Of al! portions..of the terri
tory lately 10 arms against the Govern
ment. At the North greater prosperity
has never been known nor have the
burdens ever been more equally dis
sributed among all classes. Labor and
capital are more nearly harmonious u,
this time than they have been during
the last twenty years. The finances Of
the country are in satisfactory condi-
ton tavoring all classes, and, ut the
same time atfording the ampl.st secur.
IT, to all.
The Legislation Of the country, f.,
which tile Executive is largely respon.
sible, has been jud1cious and humane
The i'd ustu.ent Ut our difficulties with
foreig" powers by diplomacy rattle,
than by war is IN achievement more
brilliant than any ever won by military
power:
General Grant is emphatically citti
zen. Ills sympathies are with the peo'
pie. His efforts are always put forth in
their interest. He champions no priu
ciple that docs not reach down to the
bottom timbers Of the government
He is neither factious nor speculative
nor corrupt; he is no admirer Of men
he believes in sublime effort.
Politicians arc organizing an opposi.
ton to him, but who arc they? Sum.
ner, although great man, is a disnp
pointed man, aud he is goaied on BY
the spurs of disappointed ambition
There is too much Of self in his hostil
ity. Trumbull wants the lresidcn
cy Greeley is fearful lest hi
taking of" may not be deferred long
enough to give him chance in 1876
Schurz is revolutionary in every 6be,
OF his brain. These men oppose Grant
Shall their counsel weigh against the
sound judgment Of the people and turn
the scale !?
Not in Minnesota. She will send
ten delegates for General Grant.
