Grant has been riding around
again, having a nice time. He is
not only fond of good dinners at

everything that is good, from hun
dred-dollar green-back down to

The past few months have dealt
severely with the Republican party.
1t has had its day. Fragments Of
crushed cycles and disjointed anat-
omies of ruined rings st-ew the po-
litical threshing floor with melan-
cholv reminders that "the white
man is mighty unsartain and the
nigger won't do to trust"

The present and future good of
his country is what should deter

ballot. His vote is for the preser-

the advancement of his country.

It is a great pity that it is sinful
to lie; it is SO necessary to the bust

1t is said that nothing exists that
was not made for some wise pur-
nose. We have some doubts about
this. If the social structure has
any good use for Bob lngersoll, it
IS hard to tell what. We doubt if
the philosophy of sound political
economy will ever be able to deter
mine with scientific certainty that
he is even q necessary evil That
he is a nuisance, is unquestionable-
He cares for no law, human or di-
vine. But the Republicans seem to
like his style.

1t is very encouraging to poor
men and women, when they look
about them and find their little ones
hungry and shoeless, to be told that
othere is a wave of prosperity
sweeping over the land" Sad to
say, however, that beautiful wave is
seen only by Republican editors
and haranguers.
.eThey must have optics sharp, we ween,
To see what is not to be seen"

The distressing depression of the
business of the country which has
been caused by the mismanagement
of our governmental affairs by the
Republican administration, has ex-
cited more interest in politics among
the working classes than was, per
haps, ever known in any former
campaign. There was never before
such earnestness manifested among
them. The hard times have had
the good effect to set them to think
ing. In 1872, times were compare
lively flush, and all the Republican
oracles and journals had to do was
to cry "Rebel," Traitor" and the
like, and the election was carried
the same as it was in 1868. Times
have changed since then, and new
issues have come up; but still we
have the same old cry from the Re
publicans. Talk to them now of
the corruption that is going on at
Washington, and their answer is,
"The Democrats brought on the
warr' Tell them Of the thieving
that is going on all over the coun
try by Government officials, and
they cry, Your party shot niggers
at Hamburg;" and so on through
the whole chapter. But people have
got tired of these old cries, and are
thinking for themselves; and go
where we will, we find Republicans
who are anxious for a change.
They are sick and tired of the Rad
ical administration, and will vote
the Democratic ticket this fall. We
are sure they will never regret it.

Senator Patterson, Of South Car
olina, in a recent speech at Colum-
bia, in that State, declared that ''the
Northern people are the masters of
the Southern people," and if the
people of the South are not aware
of the fact, "they will know all
about it before the election is over"
That is very plain language; it can
not be misunderstood. The neck
Of the South is under the heel of
the North, and will be kept there
by bayonets, if ballots fail There
is to be no pacification of the sec
tions; but, in place thereof, discord
is to be fOstered, and i'll will and
bad blood intensified and continued
and for what purpose? To keep
in power such INSCRIPTIONS men as
have disgraced our government for
years past and brought poverty and
ruin to our country. Whatinterest
have the people at large in such
men filing the offices and controll-
ing the destinies Of the country?
We rejoice in the hope that the day
of deliverance is near; that the fall
election will sound the death-knell
Of Republicanism, and that its filthy
carcass will be buried beyond the
hope of resurrection.

Soldier reunions are rather fash
ionable throughout the country,
both South and North. We don't
take much stock in them. There
can be no good sense in perpetua
ting the memories of the war at a
time like this, when the Northern
section of the Union is full of war
sentiment. No good feeling comes
with the revival of those old memo
ries. Let US have peace"

It seems that the business men
of the North are beginning to find

War and Rumors of War.

The Republican JOURNALS boldly
declare that if Tilden is elected
there will in all probability be war.
If so, the North must be the ag
gressor. Certainly the people of
the South will be satisfied with Til
den as President, and he is a North
ern man, and at present the popular
Governor of the greatest State in
the Union. The Nashville Era, a
Republican journal published right
under our noses, as it were, says
that if Mr.. TiIden is declared elect
ed by what it calls ''fraud and vio-
lence and intimidation" in the
South, 'there will Immediately be
manifested at the North such a war
sentiment as will prevent him from
ever taking his seat"
1t is now plainly to be seen that
the Republican party is on its last
legs. This sort of growing and
threatening will not win in this
campaign. The people are two well
acquainted with the tricks of Re
publican leaders. They may as well
chang up the fiddle and the bow"

There are many people always
looking out for Sights. They can
not carry on the daily intercourse
of the family without finding that
some ofrense is designed. They
are as touchy as hair-triggers. If
they meet an acquaintance who
happens to be pre- occupied with
business, they attribute his abstrac-
ton in some matter personal to
themselves, ana take umbrage ae-
eordingly. They lay on Others the
fruit of their irritability. Indiges
tion makes them see impertinenee
in every one they come ia contact
with. Innocent persons who never
dreamed of giving oaense, are as
tonished to find some unfortunate
word or ormomentary taciturnity, mis-
taken for an insult. 1t is far wiser
to take the more charitable view of
our fellow-beings, and not suppose
that a slight is intended unless the
neglect is open and direct. After
all, too, life takes its hues in a great
degree from the color Of our minds.
If we are frank and generous, the
world treats US kindly; if, on the
contrary, we are suspicious, men
become cold and cautious towards
US. Let a person get the reputation
of being ''touehy," and everybody
is under restraint; and in this way
the imaginary odenses are increased.

The Foppish Young Preacher.

Rev. Dewitt Talmage says of
him: "He looks like one of Godey's

his handkerchief to wipe away a
tear in the midst of his sermon, the
fabric drops musk and patchouly,
and balm of a thousand flowers and
new hay and kiss me quick. He is
stick of ecclesiastical candy-a
moral peppermint, religious choc-
olate drop. He taxes his text from
the most luscious part Of Solomon's
song and lithps in a manner thweet
beyond description! He has a dia-
mond ring on his finger and gilt
tering stud in his shirt bosom. He
sucks a sugar plum while the col
lection is being taken up, then lifts
his hymn book Enthusiastically and
reads:
