The st. Louis Republican, having had tho
courago and wiBdom to take IN independent po-
sltion in politics, has provoked the wrath Of

Bouri, edited by Democratic politicians who hold
small local Offices and keep their bellios filled
with county printing. Tho particular ca,,Bo
which has stirEol them up is an article which mp
peared in the Republican OH the 28th ult. dofin-
ing it's position Oh the liew-party movement. In
that article it said "Tuo Republican mover has
regretted it's courae priorto tho opening Of tholast

Withdraw absolutely from tho contcat. We be-
1evod then, and wo bolieyo now that for
any good it might do in national field, tho

they wore whom they Woro In the party traces,
and had to pull ali aorta Of heavy loads of cor

THE QUESTION OF OnSHARIsM.

Uarper's Weekly Inns IN article which takoB the
ground that, while there ia no.reaaon why Gen.
Grant should not bo elected to third term,
thero lnay bo nlany md very strong reaBons why
ho should bo. It says TINT while "no ono
thought Of pressing tho na1ne Of oither Madi-
eon, Monroe, or jackson for third nomina-
tion," the country might possibly find 1t to its
interests to continuously ro-oloct' President
having tho extraordinary qualifications pos
aossed by Grant, because it Is "hardly possible
to oxaggerate tho importance to tho country
Of rotaining tho services Of q faithful
and experienced Chief Magistrate" Under
the circumstances, the Weekly dcclaros'is can
600 no evidence Of Cnsarism in tho election Of
Con. Grant four, five, or six timos, or for Ifo
aaid Cusar when llo WAS elected Consul and
Dictator. So said tho First Napoleon when ho
was elected Consul and Emperor So said Louis
Napoleon when 1lo was olected President, and
then President for ton yoars and then Emperor.
Tho important point in CpsariBm is, that tho
people ratify their own degradation undor tho
guidance OF tho lfoaiteurs and ua,pe,'s 1reek-
lies of tho period.
The Chicago Journal, with a>apirit which 1t
has not shown since It published tho famous
$500 article, donouncea the 1Vesfiy for this
boot-1icking," which phrase may or may not
mako mp In oxprossivmosB for wlut 1t 1acks in
dignity. Tho Journal devoted to the fortunes
Of tho Republican purity as it is, docs not con-
sidor Cmsarism myth. It says:
Cnaar1sm ia terrible reality. aud not nero bug.

Republics shows tint it Is tito especial pofil Of self
govorncd nations. For ua sof to-day to ignore tho
voice and warning Of history would be cruel wrong
upon thoAo who are to como after liz.

To cannot afford to mako my moro e1pcrimcnts-to
ooct men to tho Presidency who may turn out wcit,
but who for tho sake Of personal reno nny involve

anything, 1t means that tic country should
mako Gen. Grant Trcaincnt for life, aud
could not "nTord", II, ITO do otherwise,
such boot-licking IL disstatsug. No courtier ever
stopped to baHer 1atcry. Tho country Inns, indecd

Tho Journal Expresses the opinion thas thu
President will. probably feel disgustod at the full
sonc flatiery Of the 1Yet]tlY, but upon that pon
thero may bo some doubt. Tho cditoA Of tht

a singular case ia now on appeal in tho United
statoH supromo Court. In December, 1868,
caso was on trial before tho Mayor Of Charlotte,
North Carolina. In which Leo Dunlap, colorod
man, md ono Gleason, q whito man. had high
words after which Gleason WAS ahot twice and
killed. Dunlap was indicted; tho case was ro-
moved from Mechlenburg to Lincoln County,
aud on tho trial Dunlap WIS convicted of mur-
dor. He was sentenced to bo hanged. On an
appeal to tho Supreme Court of tho State now
trial waa granted. In 1871, Dunlap mado an NIL
davit, setting forth the fact OF his having been
slave and tho prejudice against him because Of
lis color, and asking that tho caso be transferred
to tho United States Courts. The local Court
ordered the transfer, wheroupon the quoB-
tion was takon to the State Supreme Court,
which tribunal decided that tho accused had tho
right, under tho oct of Congress- known as tho
Civll-Iughts law, to hayo his trial transferred
from tho state to tho United States Courts Un-
dor this decision, tho case waa certified over to
tho United statos Circuit Court, which lately
hold session at Ra!eigh. Great preparations
wore mado for tho trial. Tho Attorney General
OF tho State appeared to prosecute, when tho
Court, Judges Bond and Brooks, dismissed tho
caae, holding that the United States Court
had no Jurisdiction Of tho case under
tho Civil-Rights law or my other law.
An appeal has boon taken from this last de-
cision to tho Supreme Court of tho United
States, the State authoritioH, strange to say, in
aistipg that tho Federal Courts havo jurislc-
tion of such caaos, and the latter insisting that
they have not.
