We have nothing to say against the Ia

contrary to regulation and custom, and
against the dictates of good taste. They
are, we are well aware, highly reputable

reason why the Government should turn

pcnsc for certain defined purposes, which

convincing argument in favor Of passing a

Another Third-Term Card.

II has long been suspected that President
GRANT has been carefully nursing causes
For hostility with Mexico, arising out of
disorders ON the Rio Gfande, with the two
fold purpose of advancing the interests of
. Ring who hold alleged claims against
that country amounting TO an enormous
sum, and OF leaving an open question
which might be made a protcXt FOR "a war
Of conquest, to be undertaken i'm further
ance of his thiid-term designs. No sensible
man can doubt that the lives and property
of our citizens on the Mexican border
could have been rendered secure long ago
II our Government had manifested any
real purpose to extend it's protection over
them. But brigands from over the line
have long been permitted to raid upon
our territory without any genuine effort
u the Administration to stop their out
RACES, and it is impossible to account for
the passive attitude it has assumed in this
matter except upon the supposition we
have mentioned. II is possible that we
may realize the results OF this policy sooner
than is generally anticipated. In rctala-
ton for the repeated invasion of our soil
by Mexican robbers, there has been raid
across the line by Texan rangers, aud
others are threatened. This has caused the
widest excitement among the Mrxicaus.
who charge through the public press that
the invasion was made 10y the positive or
ders of President GRANT, with the object
OF provoking a war between the two couu-
tries; and this too, when. as they say,
the Mexican authorities mad taken the
to q, u,
the robbers.
At the present time there are some 5000
Mexican soldiers belonging 10 the federal
army in Matamoras on the frontier, fully
armed and equipped for active service at
moments warning. They are und n the
command of Gen. FUERo, the military
Governor OF the State OF Tamauhpas,
which has been placed under martial law
In consequence Of the late revolutionary
movements IN that State. Gen. FUERo is
represented as both capable aud iudicious.
and these qualities may serve to prevent a
collision; but when the excited condition
of popular feeling upon both sides of the
hne is considered, II must be admitted that
the situation is critical.
A war with Mexico instituted NJ this
time could easily he prolonged until after
The Presidential election, ana GRANT is a
man who would not scruple to avail him
Delf of all the opportunities for personal
advantage that in such an event would be
at his disposal. The public may depend
upon it that the President has no intention
of leaving the White House; and those
who suppose that he has played his last
card in his sudden access of zeal for the
Protestant religion, will yet have occasion
10 acknowledge their error.

Rnbcock,s Coming Trinl.

Vow that the dust raised by the abrupt
removal Of. Mr., fENUFtsoN from the
Whisky Ring prosecution has cleared
away, the motives for that extraordinary
act stand out more distinctly revealed.
The pretext given for it has already been
exploded as unworthy Of belief, because
the President and the Cabinet, with fun
knowledge OF the facts sat quietly for
week under the alleged reflection, ana
were only reused to resentment when BAB-
COCK was known to be indicted.
II he had escaped, there would have been
no blast of real or artificial Indignation
from Washington. Mr. HENnERsaN was
held responsible for the action Of the Grand
Jury, which GRANT chose to consider as "A
blow Indirectly levelled at himself, and
perhaps with some reason. In this fact is
20 be found the real cause OF his anger and
revenge. When Mr.. PIERREPoNT aud his
colleagues saw the temper OF their chiefs
mind, they too became shocked at MIR.
HENDERSON crime of l6Se-mdjo,t6.
The dismissal of II HENDERSON, meant much
more than penalty for his words. GRANT

The Treasury, who has rendered great ser
vice in these cases, and of Mr.. DYER, Dis
trot Attorney at 81. Louis, have been
made for purpose Of Intimidation.
That the whole official and personal in
nuencc of GRANT and his family and his
friends will be eXerted 10 save BABCOCK
from conviction, is certain. NJ secret is
made at Washington of the feeling on this
subject. GRANT considers that he is in a

The case OF DoLAN has given rise 10 n
good deal of discussion. Many person,
seemed to feel, rather than to think-for
there could not be much reflection leading
to such conclusion-that somebody OUGHT
to be hanged, even + the evidence ~ inst
him were not very strong on account OF
the atrocity attending the murder of Mr..
NOE. 1t cannot be denied that the evil
dence against DOLAN was strong. It
seemed TO us not absolutely conc lusive.
Great excitement prevailed about the
death of Mr.. NOE, nj the time of his
arrest, ready TO blaze into Indignation and
fury against any one accused Of such
an enormous crime 1t was Just
before election, and partisan Journals
spoke of il rs recommendation
of the District Attorney who was n cindi-
date for reelection, that he brought muir
dcrcrs 10 justice so speedily. We regard
Mr.. PHELPS as n pure and hlgh-mind Il
man, who would not consciously be Iuilu-
encod by any such consideration, and we
believe the principal part in the prosccu-
ton OF this case was borne by one Of his
ASSISTANTS nevertheless it is historical
fact that the conviction of this poor wretch,
DOLAN, right or wrong rs his CONVICTION
may have been, was converted into an Gle
ment of political capital.
The trial of DoLAN was rushed forward
we viii not say indocently, but in n man
ner not calculated to afford that high nssur-
anco which should always attend the con
duct of u capital case, that justice has been
done.
