NO THIRD TERM.

The Glarksburg Telegram, which claims
the position of the leading Republican paper
of West Virginia, gives the following
every daywe hear protests, by republicans,
against the third term idea on which President
Grant is stumbling. We have thought all
along that the President had no serious
thought OF attempting to secure his election
for another term. If he did not contemplate
such athing he could very readily settle the
question by positive declaration on the SUBJ
ject Weafe reliably informed that eminent and
leading republicans have written him on the
subject, and some previous to the elections
visited Washington urging Grant to make a
posive declaration on the subject. But the
Sphinx opened not its mouth, and the repub>
lican party had to bear the odium which such
position IN the part of the man it had
elected to the Chief Msgittracy placed upon
it. The result of the elections was fair in
dication of popular opinion on that subject.
The principle of short term Presidents was
most clearly established at the foundation of the
Republic. The people have no disposition to-
depart from the rule thus laid down by their
ancestors, and President Grant ought in Justice
to these precedents, from which no departure
will be permitted, to at once declare it to be
his intention to step down ond out at the end
of bis present term. IF he does not do this
he will find himself deserted by many of his
firm friends, and be compelled to ignonimi>
oHsly take a back seat. instead of retiring with
such distinction as few men ever attain
Grant as a third term candidate will get the
cold shoulder from his West Virginia friends"
