intimate that the e vas any fear of Cesar

was 8 ,mething more se-icas than the loss
OF Jur liberties at stake 1t was appre-
ne nded that one set of Republicans
could hold Office Indefinitely, while an
I other, equally mes:torious, might be
grazing the public commons to the end
of their days. Nobody had any fear Of
General Grant, O. any objection to his
continuing in service; but that all clerks,
consuis, ministers, employees and agents
should have life tenure of salary, no
free and enlightened people, with high
standard of industrial qualification for
Any Office, could stand. Of this inau-
ence we have had in New Orleans an
example in the case OF Mi.
Witt. II that Democratic gentleman had
been reneminated, the absence of all va
cancies under his administration would
have diminished the zeal Of those who
| expected Office. The same principle ope'
rated en- large scale in federal affairs.
Hence much lukewarmness. Hence con-
siders bic absence and Indifference. Hence
the very short Republican poll in several
States, and hence in good part the success
of a political conglomeration which has
not one principle broad enough to have
co1ered New Jersey or have borne trans
lation into the political vernacular Of
any two States of the Union. Of'course

Republican defeat. O. default, as Demo-
cratic victory.
We might prolong this phenomenal
| theory by intimating in the most distant
manner, that the American people is a
little too large to be governed by orders
from headquarters. A put up campaign,
like any other canned fruits OF potted
meats, is liable 70 be unfit for use when
| needed. The will of the American PEG.
pie must be studied on the spot. The
opinions of the American people are in.
auenced by events which daily come
within the range Of their reason, and the
conduct Of popular campaign must be
left greatly to the discretion Of those who
are participants in the results.

ARE THEY TAXPAYERS7

We notice among the names Of the aids
to the grand marshal in the procession
tonight a number that may have been
copied from the delinquent tax list, pub
lished in the REPUBLICAN last August.
Many Of the aids probably escaped such
exposure because they had no property to
assess. There are, Of course, few tax
payers among them, but Sheriff Harper
had something to do with making three
OK four of them such.

GOVERNOR KELLOGG.

The recent severe illness OF Governor
Kellogg has elected expressions Of sin.
cere sympathy from some Of his bitterest
political opponents. which are compli-
mentary alike to them and the truly good
man. who is wearing his life away IN
heroic effort to do good to those who de-
spitefully use him. He is. beyond ques.
ton, the kindest-hearted and most hu.
name man who ever swayed the destinies
Of an incongruous. turbulent. thankless
people. almost ruined by their own fol.
lies and excuses. With almost unlimited
power at command, be has never raised
an angry hand against an unarmed foe
and has never struck at all. except in
one or two instances Of last re-
sort, in pure self-defense. And after the
conflict was over. in each case be used
all his influence to screen law breakers
from the consequences OF their own rash.
ness. Had he been revengeful man,
hundreds Of his prosecutors, who have
made abuse Of the executive Of this State
an occupation and pastime. would now
be languishing in prison. or he would
have drenched the streets Of this city with
blood. But he has ever stood with the
olive branch in his hand, ready to offer
peace and truce to all. An effort was
made to construe this humane conduct
into timidity or cowardice. but time has
fully indicated his character and shown
him to be almost incomparably brave and
courageous. He has dared to be right in
the face Of threatened personal danger;
has escaped assassination and forgotten the
assailant. and has altogether developed a
mostlovable character. Such man can not
fail at last to compel the admiration of
truly chivalrous people. even though they
may disagree with him in matters of
policy. The time will come when this
people will revere the memory of Gov.
ernor Kellogg as one long patient under
all manner Of wrong, and merciful to a
degree surprising ordinary human ca
pacity. No true man but will rejoice to
hear that the Governor is 50 much better
this morning that his physicians assure
him he will be able to be on: in day OK

THE TIDAL PHENOMENON.

We think they cali those extra sized
waves that wash q fellow out of his
bat hing suit. rollers. It must be some
tide Of that sort setting on our political
beach just now. Not having Maury or
any other marine authority at hand to ex-
plain these tidal phenomena. we must
speculate little on our own hook. In
the first place. we have often observed
that when a person had just come to
conclusion thing belonged to him in
perpetuity, there comes malicious COM
bination OF claimants, who conceive they
have as good right as the incumbent, and
SO set to work to GUST him by cunning
and unexpected devices. The result Of
the federal elections may be attributed to
material and political causes.
There is general depression ct Amer.
ican. and indeed Of European industries.
The impulse Of our prosperity has at.
tracted too much enterprise, and invested
too much capital. The diminution, and
even return Of European immigrants, the
low rate Of interest, wages and produce
dispose the people to an experimental
change Of agents when there is no polit-
ical principle involved.
In the universal acknowledgment Of
Republican orthodoxy many local ques-
tons assume undue importance, and are
mixed with federal results. A question
Of transportation OF labor strike in one
State. temperance or prohibition ticket
in another. OF an injudicious choice of
candidates may greatly influence an cleo
ton. We are prepared to admit that many
Of these special issues might operate in
our favor. which brings us to assign some
political causes: l. 1t is probable that
the long continued ascendency Of the Re-
publican party has made it careless in the
choice Of its officers. 1t has been on the
peace establishment until some of its staff
are not Injured to active service. This
peace establishment always keeps out
OF service many good men, and
allows Others to ascend to position for
which they may not be entirely qualified.
There was good deal in what the soldier,
Hotspur, said Of the courtier, who would
himself have been soldier bu. for this
