and the Impending crisis.
Boston Herald; Wa do not believe
that there Is any danger OF having two
Presidents lnaugurated, with a fight
over the succession. AT the worst II
IL more likely that we shall have no
President iuaugurated, which will In.
v0lve new election.
Chicago Times (Dem.): The delight
with which Morton uontemplates
Grants plan for employing u corpo-
rails guard Of soldiers for u Returning
Board IN South Carolina IL dashed
with tinge of regret that II was not
applied In Indiana Ruger and few
OF his men ut Indianapolis could have
accomplished In an hour what Morton,
lngersOll, the whole "bloody shirt

to achieve IN three or four months OF
hard labor coloniIing, aud ballot.box
stuiiing.
New York Herald: The passions OF
men are becoming heated, and no one
knows wha. the outcome may be. IL
may be civil war; there Is no telling,
Under such circumstances business,
aud trade aud industry, are not likely
to be encouraged by otherwise favor
ably conditions to make forward
movements or exert extra activity.
Money will remain In Its hiding. holes,
aud confidence continue languid. Aud
this must continue until IN ith Of
March. And then? Nobody can tell.
Richmond Wing: That Governor
rilden has been duly, fairly elected, no
Intelligent man cOguiIant OF the facts
can doubt. The law must he enforced
vi any sacrifice, at any cost the life
Of the republic must be protected And
this can only be done by enforcing
the laws ard inaugurating the duly
elected president, peaceably by oil
means If II can he, but inaugurated he
should be though all the fiends OF the
nethermost pit, led by Arnold aud his
saielitea, we're let loose to unite with
their Kindred spirits upon earth TO pre-.
vent II.
Philadelphia Bulletin (Rep.l: II the
people OF the North, In the excitement
OF the present crisis, choose to believe
that the President who saved the ma
ton from such fellows az Wade Hamp.
ton aud his followers has become an
assassin Of popular liberty, while
Hampton has been transformed into
pure and beautiful patriot, we only de
plore the madness of the hour. But
we are very certain that In years to
come, when the proceedings OF this
time are regarded without passion or
the verdict Of wise men will
be that the President did his duty
manfuliy and well.
Philadelphia Telegraph, (Rep. J: The
Republican party should scorned to
stoop 80 low the party of progress, Of
ideas, Of berry, should have loathed
this paltering with the ballot, and 81
the only men In II worthy to be called
do lusthe 1t. Better those
Ot us who term ourselves true Repub-
Leans should never enter another po,
liticai canvass; better that Republl-
canism should be thing of the past,
and that the purer elements OF the
grand old organization should unite
in fresh forms, unfurlipg new ana
brighter standard, than that It's uuwor-
thy leaders should be open to the sus-
pician OF attempting to put It's csndi-
dste in the White House by fraud.
New Haven Register; The Palla-
dium, in virulent article ON South
Carolina affairs, tells the "workiDg-
men OF the N.rthn that "Governor

Richmond Enquirer: II is not too
late, but every moment Of delay en-
cOursges the administration aud Its
tools to further encroschments upon
the rights and Liberties of the people.
The people Of Chicago uttered the key
