years. Maury County could not have
selected an honester nor more practical
man to attend to her interests in the

Grant has taken the Government OF
Louisiana out of the hands OF the vic.
torious people aud turned it over to
Kellogg. This was only to be expected
after recognizing the usurper in the be-
ginning. The white people say their sole
object in making the war on Kellogg was
to secure a fair election in November
under military rule. Kellogg had un,
limited power over the election, and there
was no chance for fair election while he
had this nOWer.

WELL-TIMED REMARKS.

The Wheeling Register of the 9th inst,
after referring to the meeting of the Demo>
cratic Conservative Congressional Convention
in the Sd District, makes the following WE'LL
timed remarks:
''It is meet and proper that now at this
time few remarks should be put forth as to
the guidance of aspirants, especially for Con-
gressionat honors No more important cam
paigu has ever trauspired in this country than
the one to take place this fall, for no fairer
opportunity has ever been presented for the
accomplishment of untold good to the coun>
try by overthrowing that party under whose
misrule she has so long been suffering, and
returning to a majority the one under whose
guidance she passed during many years of her
greatest prosperity. Under such circumstances
it behooves every honest, square and upright
Democrat to determine that no schism in
party ranks shall leave gap whereby oppo>
nents can slip into positions of honor and
responsibility to the detriment of the great
principles at stake 1t is the duty of every
honest aspirant to stand by the action of the
regular conventions of the party, and exert
whatever influence he may possess towards
the success of those selected by them. The
truly great man nerer n,an@mvres for place;
this is the prOvince solely of the cunning
Place seeks true merit, not merit place, and
IF the voters upon whose SURFACES the place
depends, will remember this, in little while
schism ant. Independent tickets will cease to
be matters of any moment. And more if
there be found at any time, any man mis-
calling himself Democrat who is unwilling
to sacrifice personal ambition to the good of
the party, and who deliberately becomes
accessory to its defeat, that man should be
remembered and never again be entrusted
with responsibilities or honors. "a long
pull strong pull, and a pull altogether" is
what we need now and always, but especially
now, and who knows but at last, after the
long Eight of darkness with which the couu.
Try has been enveloped, there may be break
ing the light of glorious day to be fraught
with prosperity, happiness aud all blessings
to a reunited people"
Spirit of Jefferson. [volume] (Charles Town, Va. [W. Va.]) 1844-1948, 1874-08-11

Es- 1t is noticeable fact that the New
York Ledger, owned and edited by Grants
horse-fancier friend, Mr.. Robert Bonner, and
the Philadelphia Ledger, owned by the Pres
ident's bosom friend, Mr.. George W. ChiIds,
are opposed to the third term" scheme
MIR. Bonner speaks out boldly, and says sat
the end of eight years General Grant will
quietly walk out of the White House or he
will forever place himself outside of the es-
TEEN of the American people," aud adds that
when "Grant sent the name of Boss Shepherd
to Congress he said in effect that he would
never again ask the x~payers of the country
TO vote for him for any Office"
The Philadelphia Ledger is less direct, but
still quite Ineligible.
