ALT. BURNETT, the popular Elocutionist
and Facial Delineator, talks of coming here to
instruct and tickle us now in few days. Il
will be remembered that he was here some
years ago-ga=ss entertainments in the Court
House-and was SO disguised with our accom-
modations in the Hall line, that he made sol
emn promises to himself and us, that wher
next he elocuted here, we would have more
suitable Hall for his business. We have go
that Hall now, and likely we'll get Alf.

THERE is not an ex-President now living.
National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1875-03-09
THE THIRD-TERM SPECTRE.

can analysis of the vote on the Poland
g resolution" says the Chicago Inter-
Ocean, would seem to indicate that the
"spectre of the Third Term stalked in
"upon the floor of the House to trouble
"seversl distinguished Congressman. In
other words, this influential organ of the
Republican party in the Northwest believes
that because certain members of the House
were fearful Of the reelection of Repub-
lican to be President, they were induced to
vote against measure for the restoration
of legal government in sovereign State.
We have already expressed the opinion
that the Third Term business did not have
so much to do with the weakened South
ern policy of the House as a First-Term
ambition. But what is this Third Term
spectre, that it will not down at the bidding
of those who have invoked it? The an
swer is plain. When the President made
advances of Cancellation to the ex-rebels of
the South, when he encouraged Mosby-
against the advice Of friends-in efforts to
demoralize the Conservative party of Vir-
ginia, and when men like Hebert of
Louisiana, from every section of the South
warmly Endorsed his policy of Cancellation,
the New York Tribune, the World, and
other journals of like kidney, charged him
with plotting 10 ride into the Executive
Mansion again upon the shoulders of the
truly Conservative element of Southern
society. The New York Herald had pre-
viously bent the energies Of its "Intellec-
tual Department" in the direction of an
editorial sensation, the basis of which was
an alleged presumption that President
Grant would prove to be a second Caesar.
The class of Southerners to whom we refer
were accordingly denounced as followers
OF the coming Caesar and as Caesar
makers. AT the same time some of the
more radical Republicans denounced the
President for what they deemed to be an
indication that he had fallen victim to the
wies of his former foes. To be brief, the
very men who now charge him with a
desire TO re-elect himself by overtime wing
the rights of the Southern people by an
''act of gross tyranny" were not long ago
loud-mouthed in their declarations that he
designed to accomplish the same results by
cultivating friendly relations with his pOlit-
ical enemies. How inconsistent this must
appear to a man of average intelligence2
All along we have claimed that the
President was truer and more loyal to the
principles Of the party than the party itself.
We knew that he aimed to be the President
of the whole people, and that to realize this
aim he was willing to sacrifice personal
National Republican. (Washington City (D.C.)) 1872-1888, 1875-03-09

MEssRs. G. G. WILLIAMS, of Wisconsin,
and ]. c. Burrows, of Michigan, whose
speeches, as members of the late House of
Representatives, on the Civil Rights bill
and the bill to Protect Electors, attracted
considerable attention, have accepted invi-
tations to take the stump in behalf of the
Republican ticket in the coming election
campaigns Although these gentlemen are
both comparatively young they have
earned for themselves enviable regulations
as public speakers and are justly entitled
to take rank among the most eloquent po-
litical orators Of the day. AS new men,
bers Of the House, they were modest
enough not to attempt to attract attention;
but when the time came for them to take
an active part in the proceedings they not
only acquitted themselves with extraordi-
nary credit, but at once asserted prOmi-
nerce on the floor which was readily &C.
knowledged by members of both parties.
With such speakers as these to rely upon,
the party need not fear that its principles
and claims will suffer when submitted to
the people.
