THE THIRD TERN president GRANT NOT
4 CANDIDATE FOR RE-ELECrIoa-A GREAT
BREEZE FROM AN UNFoUSDED CAUSE. (Sneclal
dispatch to the New York Gr0phic.l Wash
inqt0n, April 2l.-I take advantage OF Tue
absence Of President Grant and his CaDlnet
to make public u fact with regard to the next
presidency which may help to the slnpliiIca-
tion Of the coming canvass. President Grant
il moi a candidate for reelection for a third
term and nerer has been. He never suggest
ed the idea himself, and never gave any one
she slightest warrant for suppo'lng that ne
wonld take the nomination if offered; and
| il is understood here that if he had ever been
sked by any authoritative body he would
hive declined to be considered candidate
II der anv circumstances. The curious part
O: this absurd controversy is that no one
having authority has ever asked the Pres
dent whether he would be candidate for q
third term, and the President very naturally
didu't wish to say anything unsolicited or
make the matter a subject Of gossip with
interested persons.
Practically, think have reason for say.
| iug that in short time there is prospect Of
| his being catechized directly, and the Presl'
| dent will let it be known once for all that
neither be nor his friends on his behalf. eX
pect, desire, or would accept nomination
| for a third term of the presidency. 1t Is
something worth recalling just here that mol
one solitary word has been said either by tht
President or bis personal friends Whtcf
would in any way look towards third tern
of Office. This third.term bogy has beer
long enough before the country, and IL u
discredltable to the press that any attennoE
whatever is paid 10 it.

Mr.. Gladstone's Little Hit.

We have been looking for some comment
in the northern papers upon Mr.. GLAD
STONES retort courteous to the Massachu-
sets centennial people: but we believe it has
b@cn rather sighted. Mr.. GLADSTONE, in his
Letter responding to an invitation to the
L ngton centennial, said:
II do not think that they should severely
b,ano their ancestors, whose struggle to
maintain the unity Of the British empire is
one that must, think, after the late great
war cf the North and South, be viewed in
America with some sympathy and indul-
tvLce."
a palpable hit! Certainly those who
poured army after army into the South to
maintain the uaity-or, as the phrase ran at
the North, the % of the Union cannot
consistently deny Mr.. GLADSTONE the small
i,vor he asks of them-that Of being little
".nduIgcnt" and givinga little ''Sympathy y
i the British Of '76 for endearoring TO main
tain the unity of the British Empire! The
hit is heat one, and no foil could ward
j. Of.
We Thank Mr.. GLADSTONE for the point he
makes. II could not have been made more
.imeously.' 1t was not calculated to iTri'
tate, but, like ali effective and soothing
plaster, no doubt tended TO inspire little re-
Election, resulting possibly il the opinion
that, after all, power is the same unrta-
sopiug and arbitrary thing everywhere:
affection we'll suited to the centennial that
celebrated the first case in which our an
cestors opposed ply steal resistance 10 the
oppressive measures Of the British Covert
ment.

p,,,,,c Credit and immigration.

The Chase City SouMside VWgiaian is a
warm advocate Of maintaining the puofc
honor aud of inviting the in1ow oil caP''a'
and population into the State. lis eo'tof Is
one Of the English settlers who nave c"aie
INFO Virginia since the war. lie anu h'S
MANY countrymen who have come 10 VIZ
o;ria and cas-, their lot with Us have declared
their opinions boldly and unreserfeaay 10
favor Of II aintainipg the credit OF the STATE
s. indispensable 10 maintaining private
credit. and Inviting the incoming OF people
fran other States and countries. They know
,.hat bad credit is-they know that a bank
ruot State will not be selected by the stran-
ger As place TO reside, because there can De
Ii, hope Of happiness and prosperity for the
c.:;zen in such State. ...
The Southside virginian quotes the views
Of PATRICK HENRY just after the Revolution,
showing that then the State was weak and
looked to capital and population from abroad
TO alord her relief PATRICK HENRY not only
saw this great necessity, but he 81" ina,
liberal policy and harmony at home were
equally necessary to bring prosperity TO The
country. The Legislature Of Virginia was
considering what should be done towards
tlc British refugees who joined the enemy
during the war. He said:
s.I.et us have lnaguanmity, sir, to lay aside
CUR antipathies and prtjudlccs aud Consider
inc subject in political light. Those B!i.
t:.h refugees are an ente1prisng, moneyed
people. They will be serviceabe IN taking
OF the surplus produce OF our Iauds auo sup
yI,isg us with ncccsSaries during the infant
state CT our manufactures. Even If they be
ininlical TO us i'm point OF feeling ana princ''
ole. | can sec no objection in polltlcal We"
in making them tributary TO our advantage
and as / have no prejndices to prevent .ly
making this use Of them, so, sir, nave 10
fear of any mischief that they can do TO Us.
What lesson this is to many " narrow.
minded blockheads" of the North who would
keep southern "rebels" under the ban Tor
lie. 1t is gratifying to know that their mar
row and yindictive policy is not sustained by
tie hearts Of the people, and it is proper TO
say that the great body OF southern "Teoeis .
are relieved from Acknowledgement; but 1t IS
q pity that they are not wholly so relieved.
Not a man should be Wearied with shacklcs
" hen the centennial anniversary is cele.
brltcd. The voice of the people should de.
.nand that perfect freedom should be estab.
l;shed before the shouts of joy for freedom
and independence shall be heard on that day.
The spirit Of the British settlers is liberal
aad honorable. They want peace, and bar
mooy, and honor, al home as IndiSpeusa'l Die
conditions to the inviting of people from
abroad 70 come and live with Us and invest
the: money in the property and enterprises
Of Virginia. They are right. We should
feel salC.condemned and unworthy of the
good opinion of strangers if we should in
yile them to live with us after sacrificing the
public honor and making our home the
home Of misfortune, poverty, shame, and
discomfort.

T8g CHESAPEAKE AND ONO RAILROAD Ex-
TENsloN.-There appears to De sharp coll
test between the cities of Cincinnati and
Louisville as TO which shall have the west
ern connection of the Chesapeake ana Onlo
railroad. Says the Cincinnati Enquirer -
off the situation Is fairly presented to the
committee from Richmond, Va, which at
tends the Ironton meeting, every doIlar
which that CITY has to contribute Will be ap'
propriatcd in favor Of the river route from
Huntington to Cincinnati. BY adopting
this route, or by aiding in building TINS
road, they reach Cincinnati at distance OF
only one hundred and forty-scVen miles from
Huntington. Here they have connection d.
rect, not only with Louisville, but all the
other southern and western cities. The
time has come which necessitatcs the build.
ing of this road. The Chesapeake and ONO
must have western connections. and C1ncln-
natl is the city for the western terminus.
The people along the Ohio side Of the river
demand the building Of this road, are pro-.
missing aid, and are giving encouragement,
and it IS our opinion that by the aid which
can be secured from Richmond and from the
towns along the river, aud from this city,
the money can be raised to build the road
without dollar Of foreign capital"
Thi, ELECTS response from the Louisville
Commercial, which declares that if the con-
nection with the Chesapeake and Ohio can
be secured for that city by the completion
of the Big Sandy, Louisville will be the first
city west of the Alleghanies which the travel
and traffic over that route will reach, and all
of its connections will centre and diveree
from there Not only the cotton of the
Southwest, the western freiehts from the
great railroad system centriDg at st. Louis,
but all the grain from Central and Southern
Illinois will come to Louisville to tind the
shortest and the cheapest because the easiest,
route over the Alleghanies to tidewater.
Tue opening of that road through To Louis
vile would be the beginning OF new era in
her growth and prosperity, as at present all
her connection East is through Cincinnati.

MEsSRs STEARNs, BLANKENSaIP, AND PALMER.
On Change to-day delegation from Rich
nond, Va, who are visiting the city in the
interests of the proposed River railroad, to
extend from this city TO Huntington, where
It will connect with the Chesapeake and

onel Cabell, of the delegation, spoke as fol-
lows:
Gentlemen,-I am here upon mission oil

soon unite in the closest bonds Of interest
| two States that were once one. Virginia
comes to the State of Ohio with view TO
claim again her sons and daughters. Every.
where the representatives of Richmond have
met most cordial welcome, and nowhere
nas that welcome been more cordially eX
pressed than in Cincinnati. [Cheers.]
Aud we desire closer connection with
this great Queen City, which is entitled to its
pree ninence by its wealth, its workshops ano
manufactures of all kinds, many OF which
we visited this morning. - &C. H..
We desire to be with you, and hope to &C
complish our desire by means of railroad
which shall be built by capitalists of the
+, Ohio River Valley.
| We hope that some one of the great routes
will be agreed upon. so that there may be
harmony among all those interested in the
construction of the road,
Itsurely is a great enterprise, bat now that
over 400 miles of the road have been built
shall we refuse to make the connecting links
And by the physical formation of this great
country there is but one route by which we
can reach the sea-coast.
The States OF Virginia and North Caro-
| lima are both tobaceo-raising States, and il
addition to that reason we invite you to thi,
enterprise because there ia no such country
| for coal and iron, and for the wood which
you use here in your manufactures, as thi
road will open up.
If the whole people Of Cincinnati coult
travel over the route there would be no dit
ficulty in convincing all Of this truth.

.iyeIy engaged in the organization Of new
financial enterprise here went to Baltimore
10 company with another gentleman proml-
nent in financial circles in Staunton 10 get
some Of the stock taken. They found no
disposition to invest in Virginia, and could
not get more than $500 of stock taken. They
then went to a wealthy Virginian in BaIil-
more. thinking they could surely count Cd
him. He excused himself, saying that . when
a man Of Dir. Fulkerson's position succeeds
in getting such plan as his was through the
popular branch of the Virginia Legislature
the sense of moraLobligstiOn to meet indebt-
edness must be too low ia the State to make
an investment there safe.o This is the p1ac.
ticaL effect of the deYiltry carried on IN the
Legislature last winter. The bill did not be-
come a law, but our people who need money
are cut eff from it for the attempt to make II
one. Mr.. FulkeEson and his bill will be re-
memtered in the Valley OF Virginia for a
long time to come.-Stdunton F,ndtcator.

.IOhn Mitchell.

The meeting Of citizens on THURSDAY
night in this city was an honor 10 the memo
~ of john Mitchell that was altogether
gratifying TO bis friends. The Governor OF
the State presided, which was an unusual
tribute to the memory OF private indi-
ridual. The eulogies Of the Governor, Mayor
KELLEY, Mr.. DooLEY, JUICE CRUMP, and
ex-governor WISE, were admirable, and left
no phase OF the character of the deceased,
aGd The grand motives which actuated bis
liz, NLcxpored. We have never known IN
occasion of more sincere public homage 10
TIC memory Of man. The resolutions
adopted on the occasion must be a source OF
gr- :, satisfaction to the friends and admirers
G ne deceased.
~tcre was kind of nobility Of nature, q
ir.)i,:a and conscientiousness in the cbarac.
tcr Of Mitchell that may be held up as "a bril-
j. example to society. Were we Mon.
.renis,, d devoted advocate Of arbitrary rule,
Nc could not shut out from our heart an
admiration for the character Of john
mitchell. Unseldshness, patriotic devotion
10 native land, strict honor, and heroic sup
port Of principle, cannot fail to inspire I'D.
miration In every honest breast. DlsRAELI,
in rising in the British Parliament to de.
nounce JOHN mitchell as "felon,''
separated himself forever from the best and
truest men. Had he proposed that
that noble man should be forgiven, and no
further persecution should be maintained
against him, he would have covered himself
with glory and gilded the fame OF England
with new ray. There would have been nc
peril 10 the act Of clenency TO man il
whom nature was nearly exhausted, and il
would have bound Ireland to England witt
superior ties not yet employed BY the Gov
eminent Of England ia Its measures t,
strengthen the Union between England an,
Ireland. That union must become one 0
harmony. 1t cannot last as one of force, an,
sooner or later must contribute to the down
fall Of the greatest power on earth.
The proceedings Of the people of Rich
mopd do them credit, and Is a fl expression
OF their regard for that hefoic man wht
shared their fortunes, and, more than that
suffered months OF Imprisonment after tht
war in dungeon, without accusation snd
