This is an exceedingly adroit and able
letter. Ii has all the clumsy strength
and energy OF Grants simple, numbering
style........
There is nothing In this letter to prevent
General Grants acceptance Of the Presi-
dency for a third term. There Is no ex-
preston of allegiance TO that sacred tradi-
tion that third term would be practically
monarchy. The President was think
ing about himself when he began TO write.
and he never abandoned his theme. We
can see that extraordinary convection OF
Grant, which has naked his whole public
career. thai, after all. the Republic had not
done more for him than he deserved. The
matter Is altogether personal. There is
no principle behind it-no evidence that
ever such thing as a principle had en-
tered his mind. We have the Presidents
services and sacrifices; how he gave up
an Office he preferred. and which would
have lasted for life. for one he did not
seek how his second election was per-
sonal vindication from slanGer; how he
does not want the office again any more
than he wanted 1t i'm the beginning. and
how, after all. il might be unfortunate IL
not disastrous" If at some future time
(say two years from now the people
should be prevented from electing whom
they pleased for third term. The tone
of the whole letter Ia precisely as If the
President were writing about an interes;
in his own personal property-as If he
Were speaking for Ulysses ). Grant alone,
and as If the country had no concern
whatever with Ii.
We shall be surprised If the country ac-
cepts this as a satisfactory declaration
from the President. 1t Is an eyasive let
ter. Ii would have been much better for
his fame, and even for the welfare OF the
party which he proposes TO serve II he had
not written IL. In word, tire country Is
told that the President will not take what

Nobody can fail to read in the letter
which warning from his own supporters
has at last drawn out from Mr.. Grant, the
extreme reluctance with which he makes
even pretense Of resigning his chance for
a reelection. Ii is true that that chance
has grown very slender since last autumn.
and il appears that even the President,
who is by no means quick either to feel or
follow the drift of public opinion, has at
last been made r. 'ee 1t and TO make a
pretense Of folio wi & Ii. The one chance
he has depends upon the public belief that
he has not solicited or intrigued for a re-
nomination. His letter, which purports
to be resignation of his pretensions, is
not so in fact. The saving clause in il en-
ables him TO push those pretensions when
ever he chooses, which means il and when
ever he sees possibility of success for
them. II the Force bill, which was in
fact and almost in form third-term bill,
and for which he cendescended to solicit
votes i'm Congress, had become law, he
would not have wanted for the pretext,
under which he even yet declares, he will
attempt To secure reelection. He could
have declared the country on the verge Of
civil war. and he could have done a terri
BILE deal towards making his declaration
good. Even new he can say the same
thing and do something towards making
his words come true. He can find another
Williams to invent other ku-kux out
RACES. and declare that the spirit OF rebel
lion is reviving, or he can embroil the
country in foreign war, or rumor Of
foreign war, ia case he sees a chance Of
reelection, or in case the Democratic can
didate is Objectionable to them. These
are low arts, but the history OF his admin
istration shows that he is not above them.
Ii is utterly preposterous for him to pre-
tend that he has not sought n renomina-
ton, when his representatives in Congress
have been urging the enactment of meas
ures which VIGOROUSLY and almost on
their face had no other purpose but TO en-
able him to re-elect himself, and when his
little ridiculous organ, the Washington
Republican, which has no other reason OF
being than TO do his bidding, was going
on under his nose all last session in the
most frastic appeals TO every body in Con-
gress to help him to a third term. These
things are 10 have more weight with sensi-

Grant has done some extraordinary
things IN mis- day. but nothing more sin-
quarry Characteristic than this. He Is
stlll nicely calculating and balancing lust
how much he thinks the Ropublic owes

public see the very bottom of his thought

From the St. Louis Republican. !


This third-term letter OF the President
Is one OF the most unfortunate utterances
he ever gave forth. Ii demonstrates be-
You'd a cavil that his sole security has al
ways lain IN keeping his lips iron-bound.
The disclaimer 1t embodes lacks frank
ness. In fact, IL is not real hearty dis
claimer at all, but clumsy evasion of the
Issue presented to its author. and a feeble
attempt 10 sheer at the Opposition while
succumblng 10 its tactics. Gen. Grant
could easily have renowned the third
term idea without insulting the public
sense by reminder of the sacrifice he
imagines himselfto have made. and with
out exciting the public contempt by his
ignoble whine about the ISLANDERS that
have been heaped upon him. But he has
lived so long in an atmosphere OF sicken-
ing adulation. force1 upon him by people
who battered him because he could give
them something substantial in return for
IL. that wQpresume he has no conception
of the heaekhy air which men outside of
his own immediate coterie breathe. Hence
he probably imagines that his reminder
will excite admiration and his whine elicit
sympathy. Ii is a sad mistake. He is
past both.
