Henry Ward Rcecher on the Political
-3aFsW starg Il SHtmMtRORas EEtIT n{AF

- Ia
oly Henry Ward Beecher writes as follows In
the last number of the ChaFstian Union. Il
h''A AS for ourselves, we stand by our coiors
Grant and Wilson, and the old Republican
party, which has been bred and proved Id
stormy days, when the whole nation leaned
upon it and found it a sure support. 1t went
through the fire and the flood to save our
country We do not believe the common,
that the common people of America are ready
to throw away an old servant, and put in its
place a party whose whole strength lies In the
adhesion to it of the very men whom the
Republican, party has fought before. This
country is not prepared to, pass the govern
ment into the hands of that party which has
for fifteen years done nothing but fight those
laws and that policy which they hope soon to
construe and administer. 1t Is not even pre-
tended that the rank and file of the Demo-
cratic party have been converted. ' They have
changed their policy, but not their principles.
They will go to Washington as Liberal Re-
publicans,i but once there they viii throw off
the odious name, and stand forth out-and-out
Democrats, The old questions are not settled
1t is not likely that any party will attempt to
overthrow the constitutional amendments,
But a law may be made nugatory without
abolishins it. The spirit of an administra-
tion may neutralize q constitutional provision
without attacking its letter"

represents everything as pros

Mr.. Sisson is acquainted with

fed With the coal business
there, and we took occasion to
question him as to the relative
character of the two points In
regard to mineral. He thinks
our coal fields equal 10 theirs,
that we have a great advantage
over them in the abundance of

need to develop our country

and prosperity is good railroad

The Nominations.

At the Philadelphia conven-
tion last week President Gr9nt
was re nominated by ar unani-
nous vote. Henry Wilson, OF
Massachusetts,, was nominated
for Vice President on the first
ballot. Our readers are aware
that we would person ally have
preferred Mr.. Colfax, but the
East presented the name of a
man who is IN every way his
peer, and it is due to them that
he should be nominated, as the
West has been getting the
lions share of the offices since
the organization OF the Repub-
lican party. Mr.. Wilson is a
self made man, having worked
his way from the cObbler's
bench to the United States
Senate, where he has maintain
ed a leading position. His po.
litical opponents concede to
HIM both honesty and ability
and the working men Of the
East have long looked upon
him as their representative
man. During the war he was
chairman of the Senate Militia
ry Commute, and as such was
the author of much Of the leg
islation which helped us thro'
those troublesome times. A
better nor stronger man could
not have been nominated.

the diamond mines are as rich as
