Carl ScIlurz' Position In the Com.
ing Canvass ''' 'AT

it would be dangerous for tle Republican
party to ignore in the coming contest,
and mentioned, as among them, the mem-
bers Of the late New YORK Conference,
particularly such man as Carl scl''Ff'
and also such powerful and widely clrca-
lated newspapers as the Cincinnati COM,
msrcial and Ga:ettc, the Chicago 1r''I"'
and Springfield Republican. WcrcmNTk-
cd that VIC did not claim, rpr mean to DO
understood rs saying, that hese elements
of strength would bc in opposition TO the
Republican party in case Mr.. Brlstow
was po, nominated, but simply that they
would no, be at work in ile canvass for
he-n,r,y with the power that would
Io visible in case the man Of their choice
was selected. :. ! ' yy4
Those Of our readers who are familiar
with Scripture land all readers OF the
ISrELLIGENcER ought to1e by this time)
will remember that after he return Of the
Jews from captivity, Ind when they
were weak and feeble, the' undertook to
rebuild the historic wa'Isot Jerusalem
This was great undertaking and their
enemies scotled at the idea pt their a0lll'
ty 10 carry it out. But theSacred hls'or-
ian states that to the disappointment and
dismay OF the nations ronNi about, the
Jews did, despite the odds against them,
rebuild their walls, FOR y people had
mind 10 'VOrk." That was the secret oil
their success. The NOR" conveyed Is
that it makes all the diiltence in the
world whether, in carryiF on a cam
paign or building wal, those en-
gagged in it have heir hearts
thoroughly in tue work. IT is certain
the Jews would not have succeeded ii
they had not been enthuseda as they were,
and it is almost equally cetain that the
Israel Of this our day andgeneratlon-
the Republican party-whcwere carried
away captive in the elections two years
ago-will not rebuild the vlS,e places Of
Zion this year, unless, like their ancient
prototypes, they are enthsed as they
were, by the superior guilty ot their
leadership.
The Republican party NUT carry Ohio
-.
and New York. They cannt count any
longer on single carpet-baa State, save
South Carolina. The anti tiRepublican
element in, the South has iade up its
mind to carry the South. hat much
was seen in the Mississippi @ction last
year. If therefore the Reput lean party
wins in the coming contestit rust win by
carrying Northern States. Int unfor-
tunately several OF thee States
are very close, Ohio and Wisconsin
for instance-and several more are
in the hands ot the eneT, Tor In
stance New York, Connectict and In
diHna-Hnd in only mlnory oil them
has the Kepuplicah party uep certainty
OF success.
