THIRD TERM.

The President has spoken at last. The Pennsylvania Republican convention of last week passed anti-Third Term resolu- tions which have brought out letter from the President to the chairman of the con- vention. It is amanly document, evidently the product of Grants own mind, and set tling the question conclusiyely that he will not be a candidate for renomination.
 Beginning with reference to the un- doubted fact that the office sought him, not he the office, President Grant de- clares that he has not considered the claim about Third Term worth answer ing, until the action of the Republican party of the second state in the Union seemed to render it necessary. We regret that our space will not admit of our pub lication of this important letter entire, but the gist of it is to be found in the follow ing sentences:
 It may happen in the future history of the country that to change an Executive because he has been eight years in office will prove unfortunate if not disastrous. The idea that any man could elect himself President, or even renominate himself, is preposterous. It is reflection upon the intelligence and patriotism of the people to suppose such a thing possible. Any man can destroy his chances for the office, but no man can force an election or even nomination.
 To recapitulate, am not, nor have I ever been, @ candidate for renomination. I would not accept Q nomination if it were rendered, unless it should come under such circumstances as to make 1t an im- perative duty, circumstances not likely to arise.
 The sum and substance of this whole matter seems to be this: While President Grant has not really expected 6 third nom- ination he has considered the possibility of it. His letter clearly and honestly dis closes that fact. No doubt the fiatterers who always surround a man in high office have done their best to mislead him and foster the notion that his third nomina- tion might become as much necessity of the Republican party. as was his first. Whatever may have been his former views on this point. it is evident that President Grant no longer entertains any such expec- tation. It is the sensible conclusion of q sensible man, and we rejoice that sensi- tive public is no longer to be scared by the ghost of C@sarism. %.
