fight the rebellion in his own resolute and sure
way.
Let history reveal, that when our gallant Sher-
man, seemed in the judgment of the War
Secretary, to have erred in the terms proposed
for Johnston's surrender, that Stanton knew
Grant so well, that he sent him all untried in
diplomacy and craftsmanship to arrange the
surrender, and prevent possible legal compl-
cations, and political misunderstanding. Let
history also record that this plain soldier of
whose autocratic, egotistic. and imperial will,
the same Senator made such frequent mention,
was so little disposed to assert himself, was so
generous to the feelings of his great Lieutenant,
that, having conferred with Sherman, and ipdi-
Gated the purpose of the government, and so
prevented further possible mistakes he left
Sherman to complete the negotiation in his own
name, and by his own means.
[ challenge the records of the war, and also
the memories of his old soldiers, to find one sin
gle instance where GRANT ever sought to APP
propriate one single laurel that his comrades
had gained, or failed to recognise and reward
a comrades merit and worth. .t
But to return; Stanton indeed knew Grant
through and through. He knew that when for
an hour, Andrew johnson may have meditated
the use of force, against the will of the people,
in Congress assembled, he did not dare to whis-
per his dream to the government, but sought by
the creation of merit ranks to find others who
might do his bidding. To the honor of the man
and the men who stood that day in the highest

AYE, Stanton knew Grant we'll He knew
that when by assignment to the war department.
dd interim, Grant filled for the time that high
civil trust, that the only barrier between
the passion of the President, and the imminent
renewal of civil strife, was this patient, silent,
loyal man. whose voice in peace, as in war, was
forever on the side of constitutional law, unity,
and peace. AYE, he knew him well-so well,
that during that long struggle, when Stanton
stood and fought out the bitter fight between
Presidential usurpation and Congressional au-
thority, he leaned on Grant constantly, and
completely, and this CESER whose red hand
is to destroy our liberty, was true at every time,
and in every place-as true to the people and to
law as is the needle to the pole.
Aye, Stanton knew him well, so well that
when he had been placed in nomination for the
Presidency, Stanton plead for his election, en-

ed magnanimity.
1t criminally punished no man for political
offences and warmly welcomed all who proved
their loyalty by Obeying the laws and dealing
justly with their neighbors. 1t has steadily de-
creased with firm hand the resultant disorders
of great war; and initiated wise and hu-
name policy towards the Indians.
The Pacific Railroad and similar vast enter
prises has been generally aided and successful
ly conducted. The public lands freely given to
actually settlers, and immigration protected
and encouraged and acknowledgements of natur-
allied citizens rights secured from European
powers. A uniform national currency has been
provided; reputation frowned down; the ma
tional credit sustained under the most extraOr-
binary burdens and new bonds negotiated at
lower rates. The revenues have been carefully
collected and honestly applied, despite the an
nual large reductions of the rates of taxation
The public debt has been reducing during dur
ing Gen. Grants Presidency at the rate of
hundred million year. Great financial causes
have been avoided, and peace and plenty pre-
vail throughout the land. Menacing foreign
difficulties have been peacefully and honorably
composed, and the honor and power of the ma
ton kept in high respect throughout the world
The glorious record of the past is the party S
best pledge for the future. We believe the peo-
pie will not entrust the government to any par
ty or combination of men composed chiefly of
men VINO have resisted every step OF this bene-
fetal progress.
oecohu, complete liberty ana exact equality
in the enjoyment of all civil, political and pub
lie rights should be established and effectually
maintained throughout the Union by efficient
and appropriate State and Federal legislation.
Neither the law nor its administration should
admit of any Determinations of race creed or
color or previous condition of servitude.
Third, The recent amendments to the Nation
al Constitution should be cordially sustained
because they are right, not merely tolerated be-
cause they are law, and should be carried out
according to their spirit by appropriate legisla-
ton, the enforcement of which can safely be
entrusted to the party that secured those amend
ments
Fourth, The national government should seek
to maintain honorable peace with all nations,
protecting its citizens everywhere and sympa-
thizing with all people who strive for greater
liberty.
Fifth, Any system of civil service under which
the subordinate positions of the government
are considered rewards for mere party zeal is ia
tally deteriorating and we therefore favor re-
form OF the system by laws which shall abolish
the evils of patronage and make honesty, eff
cheney and fidelity the essential qualifications
for public positions without practically creating
life tenure of office. a

the public lands to corporations and monopo-

The Proposed Ward Rooms.

Mr.. EDrroR,-I saw in the PRESS yesterday,
suggestion that the proposed new Ward
Rooms should not be built this year. 1 entirely
concur in that opinion. The ward lines are
changed to be sure, but that does not alter the
fact, that the present arrangements are per-
fectly convenient to the voters, and will be so,
for several years The proposed expenditure
is entirely unnecessary at present, and know
that many taxpayers are anxious that the
greatest economy should be employed in our
city affairs. With the utmost care to save, our
taxes must be very high for several years to
come. 1t is not too much to say that our voters
have been hitherto well accommodated with
present arrangements, !and for ten years to
come it will be the same without any new ward
rooms. ANOTHER TAXPAYER.

The GlOriOus Fourth.

MEssRs. EDrToRs,-We made the enquiry
through the Evening Advertiser of last evening
if there was to be any celebration by the city
on the 4th of July. The editor of that paper
was as unwilling to commit himself as the
members of the govern ment appear to be and
passed our enquiry by with an attempt at a
joke. Can you tell us if it is proposed by the
city authorities to celebrate the day in suita-
BILE manner, or not?
We hear it stated on the streets that it is
proposed to charter one more steamers and
make grand excursion to Boston on the 4th
Cannot something be done that will keep our
citizens at home on that day, as well as attract
others here, so that the vast sums of money
always spent on that day may be retained here
rather than carried out of the State?
We are informed on good authority that the
entire State militia could be gathered here on
the 4th at a reasonable expense, and such a
display would attract many thousands to our
city, bringing to it far more money than would
be expended by the city.
We trust our city government will take this
matter in hand at once and make such ar
rangements as will be an honor to the city, or
else do nothing. TAX PAYER.
