Independent Candidacy.

From an able editorial in the Nor
ristown Gazette we extract the follow
ing, which we commend to the consid
Grafton of our readers:
while it is the uuquestionable
right of the citizen to submit his name
to the people as candidate for any
Office within their gift, it is none the
less his duty to do it in the mode and
through the channel which public ex-
perience and wisdom have selected for
that purpose. Any other mode would
inevitably breed discord and confus-
ion within the lines of the great party
now rallying to the inspiring shIbbo-
lcth of Reform, and with equal GER
tainty, terminate the public career of
any man who should be 80 unwise as
to attempt it. The era of so-called
Independent" candidacy is rapidly
passing away; and it has lately come
to be regarded as a species of imbe-
cility and Qonceit in public man 10
suppose that he can be a party unto
himself, and by sheer force of personal
will, ride, rough-shod, over the ranks
of old and disciplined organizations
There are, il is true, in all communi-
ties, few malcontents, or weak-mind-
ded men, who always hold themselves
in readiness to rally under the strange
banner of some dashing political raj
der, with more obstinacy than intelli-
genee, and more self-esteem than Wis.
dom; but the result Of such an opera
ton generally remains monument to
folly which gave it birth. The expe-
rience OF the last few years in Ameri-
can politics has contributed more than
all the rest to bring such movements
into contempt.
That higher sense, which is the log
ical result of stern experience, has
taught the American people that but
great parties are possible, All else is
the product either of childish sore
headism, or of amiable weakness. A
sensible man, at all accustomed to OBJ
serve public affairs, is either the one
thing, or the other and just as surely
as such is the fact, he will range him
self upon the one side or the other
If neither party exactly suit him, then,
in the true spirit of an American citi-
zen, he will yield a patriotic concess-
ion to, or at least operate with, that
party which most nearly represents his
convictions, and if he fnds himself
unable to graft his views upon bis own
party, he will, in the spirit Of differ
entail good sense, do the next best and
most practicable thing--adoptthe views
of his party, or remain qulescent until
he may urge his views with more pros
pect of success. That these are the
ideas which will ultimately win gem
eral. if not a universal acceptance, can
hardly admit of doubt. And they
apply with equal force to the several
States, in the internal administration
of their affairs"

TROOPS IN THE SOUTH.
Why Are They Not Sent to the From.
tier

We are not in possession Of the re.
ports of Secretary of War and Adju-
tant General Of the Army, nor OF any
other data from which to estimate tho
number of soldiers who are quarterod
in the South. We remember to have
seen in an exchange some two months
ago an estimate that the various
squads scattered about over the South
ern States aggregated 10000.
Why are they here at alp What
necessity is there now, or has therO
been in ten years past for these COM
panies of soldiery quartered around
the principal cities Of the South,
drawing regular monthly pay for doing
nothing under heaven except 10 stand
as the menacing hosts of brute force,
and the executors of any orders the
President may choose to give Z
Why have they not been sent 20 the
frontier to bold the savages in check2
Five to ten thousand truops posted
in barracks in q time Of profound
peace, in country c0nfessedly inca
pable, by utter depletion and general
exhaustion, from attempting any
armed resistance to authority and law,
while General Custer and his little
handful are thrown upon dangerous
and deadly ground, aud all swept away
in one universal slaughter. This Is
the question which presents itself to
the public mind, and which the Ad-
ministration must answer. The loca-
tion of troops in the Southern States
has been wholly uucalled for, aud
their presence has been utterly use
less, even where a breach ofthe peace
has occurred; and when we say this
we are by no means unmindful Of the
troubles IN Obion county, of this
State, the Vicksburg riot, the out
break at Port Gibson and numerous
other places.-KnOrville Tribune.
