THURLow WEED undertakes, IN a
recent letter, to enGghten the country
upon the causes Of recent Republican
defeats. He declares that the third
term IS the trap into which his party
has fallen, or been led by the nose by
Grant, and thinks gradual contraction
and resumption Of specie the true
financial policy. Reconstruction is
still a difficult problem with him, and,
while signing for oil fashioned states
manship, he fears the Democrats are
not yet worthy Of being trusted with
power. Let US h-pe that even Weed
may think Us worthy a year or two
hence.

CONCERNING an extra session Of
Congress the Washington specialist of
the Chicago Times reports an intimate
of the White House as saying: "The
President has already had the matter
under consideration. If he calls an
extra session Of the House, itwillnot be
before June. That will give him time
to see how the revenue comes in, pro-
vided the bill nov under consideration
does not pass" The same authority
credits the following views to a promi-
nent Republican Senator:
I think Grant wouldrather than not
the full Democratic Congress should
have a chance TO sit during the sum-
mer. 1t would make the Democrats
show their hands. As matters now
are, they have public sentiment on their
side, 50 they viii be apt to carry the
spring and fall elections. The Presi-
dent thinks, and many of his esteemed
advisers think, that the surest way to
defeat the Democrats viii be in allow
ing the people to see how stupidity they
will act when they have complete Con-
gressional power. The quickest and
surest way to accomplish this would be
by an extra session. It Is q winning
game for our side, either way. l hope

been carried 30 far in some recent instances
that the Administration organs have not hesi-
tated to claim credit for the action OF the
great body of independent voters, as well as tor
their own action to which the independent
voters have fairly forced them They have
had the GOODNESS to instance the defeat OF But
Ter at the polls, after he hal been regularly
nominated as the Administration candidate, as
an illustration of the determination OF the
party to purify itself. So they claim the de-
feat of Chandler in Michigan and Carpenter
in Wisconsin as evidences of the great purpose
of publication in the party. But both these
were regularly nominated candidates OF the
party and it was the action of independent
men, who committed the objectionable politi-
cal offensc of boiling the caucus that defeated
both.
And yet in spite of all this, the attitude Of
both parties upon these questions OF reform
and political publication is full Of encourage
ment. 1t is recognition on the part of the
managing men, who mean to catch quickly
the tone of public sentiment, that the people

earnest, not in blackening the fame of Its OPP
ponent, but in clearing up its own reputation
and establishing honesty and truth, Will best
entitle itself to popular favor. Tho attack

to make political capital out of it, and to
further his own ambition. We do not know
his motives. There are motives and Motives
and We do not undertake to explain or inter
pref them. But whatever be his motive, we
can thank God that we have one public man
at least who, if he has political ambition, pro-
poses to advance it in a manly, honest way,
by prosecuting and furnishing thieves instead
of con 3oring with and using them.
