CRAFTS POPULARITY.

The New York Tribune is furnishing
some rather convincing proof that Grants
large majority of the popular vote cast On
the 9Th inst, is no evidence Of bis populari.
ty, but that the actual vote cast for him de-
monstrates the contrary. For instance,
that paper says in its issue Of Nov. 16:
"The election returns begin TO present q
curious subject for political spec liation. Ii
seems likely to turn out that Gen. Grant,
Notwithstanding his overwhelming majority,
really received fewer votes in 1872 than il
1868. The negro vote, being now first fully
counted in Presidential election, is of
course excluded from the comparison.
"The population of the United States
must have increased nesrly three millions,
in the last four years; and the full vote
which Presidential election draws out
should naturally show an increase of not
less than eight per cent ever the vote of
1868. If Gen. Grant were only relatively
as strong ss in 1868, his vote then should
be eight per cent heavier. But his MAORI
ties are SO much increased in the different
States, and he makes so nearly a clean
sweep of the States, that his aggregate
vote would seem sure to be vastly greater.
Yet the returns tell curiously different
story,
',In his own State of Illinois, for exam
pie, he has actually fewer votes than were
cast for him in 1868. The official returns
are not yet all in, but those received all
point in that direction. In New Hamp.
shire, he had 3S, 19l votes in 1868; in 1872,
he has but 1928. 10 Vermont, be had
44,167 in 1865; iG 1872, he has but 41,475.
In Connecticut, be had 50,996 in 1868; ia
1872, he has $1,000.
"PennsylvsDis affords still more sugges-
tive figures. In 1860 it gave Lincoln 268,-
$50 votes. In 1854 it gave 296,39l In
1868 it gave in the October election $751;
416 for the Republican State ticket, and, a
month later 342, $50 for Grant. Instead of
increasing about 10000, as would have
been natural if the parties had remained
about relatively the same, the vote Of Hart
ranft only rose in 1872 to 353,3S7, while
the vote fo- Grant actually fell off in No
vember TO 349, 589, or hardly seven th9us-
and more than In 1853. Aud yet, with
this falling of IN his vote, Grants majority
was nevertheless swe led to over hundred
thousandmore than Hartranft's.
ain New York the returns do not yet
permit an accurate statement. Gen.
Grants vote is probably slightly heavier
than in 1868, but by no means up to the
natural increase. He gains in the cities,
(where the Tweed and O'Brien regime in
1868 stuffed ballot boxes,) ard falls off
slightly in the rural counties. New Jersey
alone appears to show a gain equal to the
natural increase.
"Fewer people voting for him, and vet
bigger majority, that seems to have been
the rule ia Gen. Grants last election. We
do not believe that the significant fact viii
be lost, either upon the President himself,
or upon the shrewd and able men who have
directed his canvass"

'1n our country, government eau only be
carried on By parti as." This we clip from
the leading Grant paper of New York, the
Times. 1t is fact which any who have
any knowledge Of politics or of the forIna-
ton Of our government win readily admit,
unless they have sinister motives in making
denial. IL Republic there viii always
be contrary opinions as to the proper prin-
ciples upon which the government should
be administered, and the freer the govern
ment the greater will be the diversity of
opinion. Parties win be formed not upon
men but upon the measures they may advo-
cate. Elections will be determined in the
main, not so much by the brilliancy or
power Of the candidates as by the populari
ty ofthe principles of the party to which the
candidate belongs. Mr. Webster, If he were
alive, could not with bis Federal notions be
elected in Democratic district over an in
fsrior opponent; nor could Mr.. Calhoun
with his views be elected in a modern Re-
publican district over a Mullins or Gibbs.
Hence we insist that this latter-day theory
of complete independence of parties and
party ties, is utterly and ruinously imprac
ticable, preached and pretentiously practiced
in most instances only for the purposes
OF Generalization and disOrganization.
While we have srepubIican government We
must have parties based upon principle, and
to maintain those parties with the slightest
hope Of success we must have thorough or
ganization and rigid discipline.

DEATH OF M. RTOHARDsON.

We deeply regret to learn that Dr.. John
w. Richardson died yesterday morning at
his residence near Smyrna, in Rutherford
county. He had been i'll about ten days
with bronchial affection. BE was sged
about sixty years. For long time be was
a member of the Christian Church. Pre-
vious TO the war DIR. Richardson was an
active politician of The old Wing school.
He was one of the recognized leaders OF
that party in its palmiest day. After Bell
and Zollicoffer, there was 10 man
in the Stats who had more in
fluence than he in shaping and con-
trolling the plans Of his party. He was q
man OF wonderfully clear mind, quick in his
perceptions and great insight into human
character. OF great popularity as politi-
can, he vas al .hly esteemed as citizen,
deeply beloved as a ueighbor and friend.
Since the war he nas devoted himself ex-
ciusi7ely to his profession, in which he stood
among the first in Tennessee. He was the
father of Hon. James D. Richardson, Speak
or of the last House of Representatives and
Senator elect from Rutherford and Bedford.
DIR. Richardson himself had served his
county with great distinction in both
branches of the Legislature. The an
nouncement Of his death will bring sadness
to an extended acquaintance throughout
the State.

Illinois is the first State to practically test
the principle Of minority or proportional
representation. The Cincinnati enquirer
says: "The first Legislature ever chosen
upon the principle of proportional repre-
is soon to meet in Illinois. 1t
marks great advance In our political edu-
cation. The two great parties, Liberal and
Grant, are there represented in about ex-
actly the number they are relatively to each
other on the popular vote. In other States,
where this principle does not prevail, par
ties polling three-sevenths of the entire
vote have, by an unequal and unjust sys-
TEN, been almost excluded from any repre-
sentation, and in other instances the party
having the majority of votes has lad mi
nority in the Legislature. Large portions
of the people have been practically dis
franchised. Thus, for instance, the dozen
counties in the Ohio Western Reserve
never return any body but member OF
the Republican or Grant party. Yet there
are not less than 10000 Liberals and DEM
ocrats in that portion of the State, and they
certainly ought to have some bearing. In
Illinois the State is divided into Represen-
tstiYe Districts, each electing three mem
bers. A voter can, if he chooses, put the
figure 8 opposite one name, and vote for no
other. In that case that man receives three
votes. The practical result is that in strong
Grant districts the Liberals run one man,
give him three votes each, and elect him.
Tie Grant men get the two others. Thus
the majority and the minority are alike
represented. In the Liberal districts the
GRANTEES pursued the same policy"

IT is claimed that Grants reelection is
clear acquittal from all charges brought
against him during the canvass. To this
claim the Pittsburgh Post responds: "What
is sauce for the goose should be sauce for
the gander. II the result of this election is
to be regarded as a popular cleansing of
Giant, then must Boss Tweed's reelection
to the Senate of New York be also regard
ed as having similar effect upon him. The
only thing we see in the result of either
election is, that the friends Of these two
equally distinguished citizens managed to
count out the most votes. Oar Radical
friends know how Tweed manages his
cards; the investigation in the courts of
Philadelphia prove pretty coIclusively how
Hartranft's card was managed for Grants
especial benefit. In our own county, Grant,
with all his remarkable large majority, poll
ed precisely seventy five more votes than
Hartranft. The increased majority credit.
ed to him arises from the circumstance Of
thousands of Democrats absenting them
selves from the polls"

THE Hollz snrings Reporter Of the 14.h

THE Holly Springs Reporter of the 14sh
instant takes practical view of our late
election, and seems to comprehend the true
situation better than soms of our own peo-
pie:
"If the old saying erperientia docet
stultOs, be true, the Democrats of Tennes-
nessee are rot fools, for experience has
certainly taught them nothing. Having
but short time ago gotten possession of
the State Government, IN consequence of a
split in the Radical ranks, they have given
up everyth ing to the enemy by dividing
tier own forces. An overweeniDg thirst
for ofica in all the districts brought out in
depeu dent Candidates in such numbers that
the hardy yeomen, the honest, hard-work-
ing people became disguised and refused to
go to the polls"
