The PRESIDENT AND THE PRESS. General
Grant, in his earlier career, owed more to the
press than any man now in public life; and
yet since he has been in public career he has
always disdained the press. No administra-
ton has been SO scornful in its relations with
the journalism of the country. Even the
journals which were anxious to serve him
have been treated with contumely whenever
they yentured upon the slightest manifesto.
ton Of independence. To the journalism Of
the country he owes more than to any other
influence his condemnation and fall This
fact is not without its poetic phases, and it
would be interesting to know what he now
thinks OF the press of the country.

BANxs FOR 6pEAxER.-In the next Congress
the Speak ership will very likely be between
General Banks and Mr.. Fernando Wood.
General Banks recognized capacity puts him
fully on an equality with Mr.. Wood in that
respect, while his experience in an Office in
which experience is Of pre-eminent value gives
him an evident advantage. It is to be remem-
bered moreover, that he was one Of the men
who could not find favor in the eyes of the ad-
ministration. and that is likely to be looked
upon as the most solid evidence of political
honesty that can be given in mans favor. II
the democrats should give any prominence in
their politics to the impeachment of the Ex-
ecutive strong Speaker will be Of great sec.
vice in the conflict that that proposition mus
provoke.
The New York herald., 1874-11-05

tate speculations; the departure from the coz
stitutional traditions in appointments to
Office; the hundred jobs which one after the
other have grown into offensive life under the
President patronage-these and other matters
must now come for review before the repre-
sentatives of the people. They may, it is
true, result in the formal demand for the inn
peachment which now simply comes as sug-
gestion from the exultant leaders of a victori-
Gus party.
We are far from saying that if such ne
cessity arises the democratic party should
hesitate about its duty. We believe that the
Presidential Office would become more demo-
cratic in its relations to the country if we
could demonstrate the practical responsibility
of the Executive to the power of impeach-
ment. But in this the leaders of the democ-
racy most move slowly and surely, and make
impeachment not matter of party tactics, but
n solemn measure of national duty. In all
these matters the newly victorious party must
use the utmost discretion. Nothing is moro
easily thrown away than a victory. All ex-
treme sudden, fantastic legislation must be
repressed Any wanton attempt to degrade
the President illegally would aid him. The
Southern States must be kept in peaceful rela-
tons with the Union. The defeat Of Grant
must not be regarded as synonymous with the
revival of rebellion. We must have no dis
honest tampering with the finances. "No
secession and no reputation :" must be the
watchword of the now triumphant democracy.
A party thus animated may enter with conf
dence upon the most solemn tasks.
If one of these tasks should be i'm
parchment it should not be avoided
nor should it be welcomed. The democratic
party owes the utmost justice and considera-
ton to Grant. If the result should be
the arraignment Of his administration before
the Senate to meet with the condemnation
it has already received from the hands OF the
people, then the country will feel that pain
full duty has been performed with delicacy,
frmness and with due regard alike to the
fame of the President, the dignity OF his
office and the rights Of the people to hold its
public servants, no matter how exalted, to
the severest accountability.

The Elsetion o. Unitsa 0tssss seaa.

The Legislature of the State Of New York
will, at its next session, elect United States
Senator in place of Reuben Z. Fenton. The
Senate, with Laning, democrat, elected over
Alberger, republican, in the Thirty-first dis
tr;ct, stands as it did last session, twelve
democrats, eighteen republicans and two inde-
pendent republicans elected by democratic
votes; but on the question Of United States
Senator, even if the two independents
should vote for separate candidate, the
division will practically be twelve democrats
and twenty republicans, or a majority OF eight
against the democratic candidate. The demo-
Gratis would require sixty-nine Assemblymen,
or o majority OF ten in the lower house, to
elect their United States Senator by a
majority of two on the vote in joint
session. There are one hundred and
twenty-eight members in the House Of
Assembly and thirty-two Senators, max
ing together one hundred and sixty votes
and on the above basis the democrats
would have sixty-nine Assemblymen and
twelve Senators, total of eighty-one, while
the republicans would have ffty-nine Assem-
blymen and twenty Senators, total OF seventy
nine. Should sixty-seven democrats and
sixty-one republicans be elected to the Assem-
bly,, the two independent Senators would
hold the decision of the United States Senator
would then be sixty-seven democratic As
semblymen and twelve Senator's total of
seventy-nine, against sixty-one republican
Assemblymen and eighteen straight re-
publican Senator's total of seventy-nine.
Neither side could elect without the votes
of the two independent Senators. The
United States law Of 1866, chapter 245,
regulating the mode in which Sena-
tors of the United States shall be
elected by the State Legislatures, provides
that each house shall, by vivu uoce vote of
each member present. name person tor
Senator on The second Tuesday after the
meeting and organization thereof On the
day following the houses shall meet in joint
assembly, and if the same person shall not
have received majority in each house, shall
proceed 10 choose Senator by viva voce vote,
the person having the majority Of votes being
declared elected. Should there be no choice
the joint assembly is required to meet and
take at least one vote per day during the
session until an election is made. Formerly
it was necessary that each house should make
a nomination in it's own chamber before the
joint session could be held. This offered
facilities for obstructing an election, and the
Inv Of 1865 was passed to prevent factious
delay and compel choice.

Johns.

Mr.. wickham has announced that be ssvill
endeavor to be the peoples Mayor and
no mans man." These words, spoken a
Tammany Hall gathering. in the festive
early hours of general triumph, are, per-
haps, not to be taken literally. 1t may bs
doing the gentleman On injustice to aocept
them seriously; but if they are to be taken
seriously and literally the public will be emil
nently glad to know it, and will have reason
to rejoice in the election of the new Mayor:
for great talent and great experience in thu
administration of public affairs are Of less
consequence in the Mayoralty than the honest
determination to serve the public and not thu
political chques and rings. But what will
the Tammany Johns say to this declaration2
Is it o formal notice to them that they have no
lot or parcel in this victory? Is it intended
to correct any rash notion on their part that
the distribution of the Mayoralty spoil was In
their hands? II so there will be war; but

The Registership and NIr. Morrissey.
The triumphant election of General Jones
to the Office of Register is remarkable and
gratifying event. 1t shows how the people of
New York, without distinction of party, will
treat good nominations It also shows how
largely the people are influenced by senti-
mental considerations in electing men to
Office. General Jones had bright and
honorable personal record, and he had COM
mended himself to popular approval by his
generous treatment Of the family of Miles
O'Reilly. His triumph, therefore, will please
oil classes without distinction of party.
It is said that John Morrissey has not been
treated we'll in the matter of the Registership
by Tammany Hail. The allegation is that
Kelly and his friends grew weary of John,
sought to throw him, and succeeded. To
use . phrase which the bluff gladiator will
understand, they stocked the cards on him.
1t really does not seem, from what We learn,
that John had fair show. He is blunt,
honest fellow, with more manhood than falls
to politicians generally, and deserved better
treatment.
John-must be philosophical and wait his
time. He would do well to make his peace
with Adonis Creamer and enter into the oppo-
sition to Tammany,

History REPEATING ITsELr.-In 1910 the
democrnts were swept out of power as by a
whirlwind; and yet in 1874 they elected
their Presidential candidate, Polk, over the
great Henry Clay. In 1852 the democrats
elected Pierce by the electoral votes OF all the
States except four; but in 1853 their party
began to break up and, narrowly escaping a
defeat in 1856, it was scattered to the winds
in 1860. In 1872 General Grant was re-
elected by the electoral votes Of all the States
except six, with two-thirds of each house of
Congress to back him, and yet in 1874 we
have something very much like the reaction
ary whirlwind OF 1910, and upon similar
issues.

The RETIREMENT OF MISS CUsHl1AN.
Miss Cushman will bid farewell to the stage
on Saturday evening, and the event will be
great occasion in our theatrical annals Her
engagement has been wonderful series of
triumphs, and Messrs Jarrett L. Palmer, who
have managed it, have, in the presentation OF
the plays, revived all the glories Of the Edwin
Booth management. This success shows that
the people of New York will always patronize
good acting, and especially when the managers
show taste, enterprise and genius in the ar
rangement of the stage affairs. The pro-
gramme for the farewell night of Miss Cush-
man has been published Already every seat
in the theatre is taken. Our best
people seem to vie with each other
in their effort to do her honor, and
the occasion will be as remarkable as the
recent farewell Of Dejazet to the Paris stage.
Miss Cushman has earned all these honors by
her genius, her blameless, earnest, industri-
GUS life, her exertions for art and the eleva-
ton of the drama, and she will carry with her
into retirement the best wishes of the COM
munity for long, peaceful and honorable
life

Administration Organs.

One Of our contemporaries which has q
peculiar interest in the subject gives some
sound advice to the President in regard to
to be an organ of the administration but it
was not o servile organ. It advocated many
points in the Executive tactics, explained and
defended others; but where there were points
which seemed indefensible it spoke against
them with vigorous freedom. lis advocacy
for this very reason had some weight with
the public, but its freedom gave mortal
offence at Washington, and an out-and-out
organ was established, which it was thought
would ruin the journal that had even mod
crate independence Of spirit. People at
Washington evidently do not understand
that the days Of organs are gone by; that an
intelligent people will pay no attention to the
support Of a journal that las no option to
support or oppose has no freedom Of
opinion, but must support in every instance,
every measure. They are likely to discover,
however, that in Misunderstanding be-
tween governments and newspapers the jour-
nal can do without the government great

out the journal. Indeed, any relationship
whatever in the nature Of pledged support is
burden and an embarrassment to the
journal, while it is of incalculable value to
the government. If there is any wisdom
in Washington the tactics which resulted in
the exclusion of our contemporary from favor
will be revised, for if the democrats push the
notion Of impeachment the government viii
need intelligent advocates before the people.
