SHOULD GRANT RESIGN 2
THE VOICE OF THE PREss.
from the Jersey City Herald
THE THING EXACTLY.

THE THING EXACTLY.
The NEW YORK HERALD calls upon General Grant
to resign. Here the HERALD touches the popular
wish. 1t seems strange the good demand was not
made long ago. Grants resignation is exactly the
thing now to be pressed. so long as
this glorIously ambitious blockhead continues
his stupid aud Grim nal folly as Pantaloon Pr esi-
dent the nation can enjoy no peace. The country
Is lar less tranquil to-day than 10 was SIX years
ago, and all because stupid and offensive ol1cer
OF the people wants to hold on TO power by ruling
one hall the country witM the bayOnet. Inc peo.
pie have lost all respect for Grant. Toe NEW
YORK HERALD knows this and consequently 1t
wisely advises him 10 resign.
ff'rom the Louisville Courier-Journal]
The NEW YORK HERALD Is urging Grant every
day to resign, and proposes to push the matter
ana keep 1t before the people until he lays aside
the purple. AS means OF impressing the duty OF
abdicat0n upon the President the HERALD cites
Christine OF Sweden, william !. Of orange, and
other noted Indicators. The HERALD mas got a
met mate by Grants most mash obsnacy. lie means
to rockroot himself to the White House.
From the Northampton (Mass.) Gazettel
The NEW YORK HERALD has la tely devoted much Of
It's ace to arguments IN favor OF President Grants
resignation. 1t is not likely the editor expects
that the man who Iougnt 1t out ION that line all
summer ~ not going TO acknowledge himself
a allure as a President, Just because mis- political
opponents raise great cry at any particular act.
[From the Burlington Qowa) Gazette.l
The NEW YORK HERALD Is getting up column
articles to induce Grant to resign. The arguments
adduced are weighty ones no doubt to statesmen
and great patriots. but Grant don't look at things
in tnat light lie claims that he saved the country
and tnat 1t belongs TO him. and CONSIDERS IL mighty
mean Tor the people whom he plucked as a brand
from the burning 10 be hndnR iault with MIS- pro-
vprieta interest in the matter Tnere IL only one
way tnat Grant could be Induced TO resign, and
That Is 10 pay hin up IN full Tor his unexpired
term.
IFrom the williamsport (Pa.) SUM-
" has been suggested that Grants chief objec-
tIon to following the ADVICE OF the HERALD In the
matter OF resigning the Presidency, Is That such
course would deprive him OF 100000 salary. Or
cout se this Is an important consideration with
Grant, but we think II this Is the only objection 1t
could be easily obviated by popular subscription
OF the necessary amount We suggest that II the
HERALD is certain or It's position on this matter
it should at once start q dollar Subscription and
see how easily the amount can be raised.
from the Augusta tGa.) Chronicle, February ~
The NEW YORK HERALD is after Grant again.
This time IL wants him to resign, and by way OF In
ducement recounts the story OF aodications in
history, from Diocletian, who dofred tho Roman
purple In order to enter into tho cultivation OF
capDages to Amadeus, OF Italy VINO was glad
enough TO return the crown OF spain after BRIEF
and thorny lease thereof. Our own idea Is that
the President viii resign only as Butler, Chandler,
Carpenter and the lesser luminaries 0! that sort,
VIII soon retire. e., when oustca at the ballot
box, aud not before. As 70 holding on by Iorce,
we have only to say that 40000000 10 one is great
odds. When the great Grant Is told TO 70 he VIII
20 last enough, no lear.
