Upon General Grants accession to the
Presidency number Of those who had
supported his election, with some who had
not, sought office at his hands or expected
him TO bestow it unasked. He was unable
TO crafty their aspirations. ..
Their lamentations mingled with the
howls of the disappointed, made doleful
dssonance whereof the only meaning de-
ducible runs thus: :" General Grant is
found wanting--his administration is a
failurcio
Failure how? in what? Have we not
peace and plenty in the land? Is not our
flag displayed and respected ON every sea !?
What foreign foe molests or threatens US :?
Who fears instruction at home or invasion
from abroad /? In which of the thirty-six
States are the masses wanting work, dis
contented, suffering?
Consider our financial condition. Nearly
every state and municipality paying OIL
debts incurred in raising men for the war,
while the national debt has been reduced by
hundreds Of millions in the time that
General Grant has had his hands on the
helm. The public expenditure is falling OIL
on every side, while the revenue is mp to
high water mark.
Yes, General Grant has failed to crafty
some eager aspirations, and has thereby
incurred some intense hatreds. These will
not and do not fail and his administration
will prove at least equally vital. We shall
hear lamentaton after lamentation over his
failure, from those whose wish is father tt
the thought; but the American people lei
them pass unheeded. Their strong arms
bore him triumphantly through the war and
into the White House, and they still uphold
and sustain HIM. THEY NEVER FAILED
AND NEVER WILL!
AS to the administration of General Grant,
we recognize no one as a Republican who
is not grateful for its judicious, energetic,
and successful efforts to procure the ratifi
cation Of the fifteenth amendment, tina
key stone of our political arch, whereof.
the fruits of our great triumph over rebel
lion and slavery are assured and perpetu
ated. While asserting the right of every
Republican to his uptrammeled choice of {
candidate for President until a nomination
is made, when it is made, there is nj
longer room for private judgment, bu
every man in the party is bound by tn
popular choice. We venture to sugges
that General Grant will be far better quail
fed for that momentous trust in 1872 tina
he was in 1868.
AZ Democratic national triumph mean
restoration to power of those who deser
ed their seats in Congress and their place
under the last Democratic President
plunge the country into the Red sea of 81
cession and rebellion. Though you pain
an inch thick, to this complexion you mu
come at last. The brain, the heart, Il
soul of the present Democratic party is Il
rebel element at the South with its mort
ern allies and sympathizers. 1t is reb
at the core to-day.
1t would hail the election of Democra
ic President in 1872 as virtual reversal
the Appomattox surrender. 1t woul
come into power with the hate, the chagri
the wrath, the modification Of ten bitt
years, to impel and guide its steps.

tended the patent Of Albert I. johnson, OF
New York, for an improvement of sewing
machines. The extension has been and will
be bitterly opposed by the Gibbs Company,
who will take the matter to the courts.

But it is noticeable that it does not claim

THE fact may not be generally known
that the considerable quantity Of nickel,
from which our smaller coins are made,
comes from single mine, which is the
only one in the country that is now being
worked. This mine is situated in Lancas-
ter county, Penn. /; it has been worked for
seventeen years, and developed to depth
of two hundred feet. The length of the
lode is between two and three thousand feet,
and it produces from four hundred to six
hundred tons per month, employing in the
working of the mine force of one hundred
and seventy-fye men. In tie arts, nickel
is growing rapidly into favor as substitute
for silver in plating steel, iron, and other
metals. Its commercial demand is rapid
ly increasing, and as it is much cheaper
than silver, will undoubtedly be adopted in
the manufacture of many articles, as a sub.
stitutc for that more precious metal.

A MEETING of Chicago women was
held recently and adopted resolutions to the
effect that General Grant is entitled to the
respect, gratitude, and enthusiastic admir-
ration of the women of this country for the
impartial manner in which he has bestowed
his patronage, in frequently appointing de-
serving women to office under the govern
ment, and that as Horace Greeley is the
uncomprornising and wicked enemy of wo-
man-in favor of depriving her of all posi-
tion-it is the duty of every woman to re-
ligiously and conscientiously work and
pray for his defeat, and the humiliation of
the sham reform party that indorse him.

WHAT some of the Liberal - Repub-
licans know about Horace Greeley is set
forth in the following extract from lead
ing article in the New York Eveniag Post:
Should Horace Greeley ever be the
President of the United States we firmly
believe that the corruption and the crime Of
an administration with man at its head
so weak in principle as he, so infirm of pur-
pose as he, so iInbecile of character as he,
so surrounded by such a crowd Of adven-
turers, and cormorants, and knaves as
would surround him-that the corruption
| and the crime of such an administration
| would reach proportions that would put
! their perpetrators beyond the cognizance of
ordinary courts of law, and that would
! call for and compel other correction than
ordinary penitentiares can afford. Where
the rebellious element and the corrupt ele-
ment of the country are combined to gain
possession of the government, and on a
false pretense, we may prepare ourselves
for auy calamity that in the course of hu-
man events can possibly belall any people
in their political relations with each other
and the world" = #
| This is cheerful. Mr.. Greeley,s organ
. will easily prove that the Post has beer
bribed by the "usurper or his minions."
