ANDREW JOHNSON is conducting his
personal campaign in Tennessee with great
vigor, and the masses are said 10 flock
largely to hear him. Ills stye of oratory,
earnest, dIlfuse, bold, fervid, deity boast
full, coarse i'll illustration, is well calculated
to captivate the unlettered multitude. lie
is one of them enlarged, experienced in
affairs, and capable of giving tongue
to the thoughts and feelings of COM
mon men. As he is boiler from the regu-
lar Democratic Greeley nomination, Of
course the coalition organs denounce him in
unmeasured terms. For the same reason,
Republicans pat him on the back and tell
him to 60 in and win. From the present
outlook, the probabilities are that he will
win in spite of both regular parties. Ex-
President Adams went back to Washington
as Congressman from Massachusetts, and
perhaps there is nothing in the =" eternal fit
ness of things initiating against his re-
turn to Congress. "Andy's" narrow es-
cape from impeachment would have re-
pressed the ardor Of almost any OTHER man
in the country, but the great g unrepressed
irrepressible is not made of ordinary
stuff, nor does he bear resemblance to any
other mortal man. He is the totality of all
irrepressibleness in one individual person.

Tia Enquirer objects to strategy in po-
litical warfare. But what is consummate
generalship in military officer may not be
without its lesson to the adroit and skillful
politician. The first Napoleon practically
adopted the motto, "divide and conquer"
and some of his most brilliant achievements
were those where he was enabled to fall
upon divided army and crush it piece
meal. The Democrats undertook to divide
the Republicans, and manmuvred very
adroitly at one time to effect such diver
sion as would enable them to play the Ma
poleonic tactics on us. They soon dis
covered, however, that this was game at
which two could play. And now that the
tables, which they had prepared for us,
have been efiectually turned on them, and
they find themselves outgeneraled at their
own game, they complain against the sort
of tactics resorted to, and think it is not
just the thing it should be.
Well, if you don't like this style of
strategy, you should not commence it.
You undertook to divide us, and we divided
you. AS soon as we have taken few
more Greeley guns, we shall turn all our
heavy artillery on O'Conor and Adams,
and make short work of the campaign.
This is what we are after, and, tactics or
no tactics, We intend to accomplish it,
Everything is far, you know, in warfare.

In is fact full Of promise that the men
exhibiting the greatest interest and activity
in the present canvass are the business men
of the countryside commercial, mercantile
and financial classes, who feel the necessity
of stability in administration, and who
dread, above all things, an uncertain and
vacillating policy. The former they have
had under Grant and are content; the lat
ter they would be likely to have under
Greeley and are apprehensive.
The whole country is to-day in state
of unexampled prosperity. Every depart
ment of industry is hourishing. Labor
and the products Of labor find ready and
profitable market. Money is abundant
without being redundant. The wise
financial policy of the government has ope-
rated as an effective check upon unregula-
ted speculation without producing such
contraction of the currency as to cmbar-
rass legitimate enterprise. Public and in
dvlual credit was never more healthy,
and industry was never more satisfactorily
and abundantly rewarded.
Why, then, should the men under whom,
if not by whom, this state of things exists,
be displaced to make room for others who
threaten radical change in the principles
and policy of the government? 1t has
always been deemed wise to ''let well
enough alone" 1t certainly would not be
wise to supereede safe and stable policy
for one of uncertainty and vaccilation.
But just this we would do if Grant should
be superseded by Greeley /; and it is be-
cause the business interests Of the country
fear what is thus imminent that they are
taking so deep an interest in the pending
nolitical contest

THE treasury department has, with adj
mirable promptnoss, anticipated the popu-
lar demand by ordering thorough inves-
tigation into the Metis disaster. Such a
calamity should call forth something more
substantial than newspaper rhetoric. 1t
should result in important improvements
in the precautions adopted for the safety of
the hundreds of thousands who yearly
entrust their lives to our steamer service.
The serious charges urged against the sea-
worthy condition of the Nets, demand a
strict and impartial examination. Captain
Burton must also explain why ho failed to
demand by proper signals and to accept
assistance from the passing steamers,
Stonngton and Nereus.
