GROWING DARKER.

The enunciation Of Grant that he
will sustain the returning board in
Louisiana at all hazards. in any deter
mination at which they may see fit to
arrive, unquestionably places the safety
of this republic in the greatest danger
This fat Of the president which will
doubtless be sustained by the army and
navy Of the United States. practically
snnuls the expressed viii Of the Ameri-
can people, and delegates to board Of
five men, the power to exercise their
pleasure in choosing president.
defiance Of this great popular will.
The HERALD cannot refrain from
expressing the gravest appre-
hension at the intensely painful and
uncertain condition Of affairs. and it is
unnecessary to attempt TO disguise this
feeling of impending danger from intel
lisent readers.
That the country is confronted by a
great peril, and is now enduring a
strain that must either end in
establishing frmer government or in
rending it into fragment. must be
manifest to every person who has kept
abreast OF the situation. The future.
while full Of foreboding and danger, is
by no means hopeless, and we can only
wait with all the patience that is in us
for the great overwhelming, irresistible
will of this people TO right Us. at last.
feeling that the most appalling outrage
ever perpetrsted on a free people, will
have been committed should Samuel J
Tilden be defrauded Of his right to oc-
oupy the presidential chair from the 9Th
of March, 1877.
There may have been ptofouuder
meaning in Mr. Tildons words when he
quietly remarked that if there were
enough people voting for him to elect
him President there were enough, in his
Judgment, 10 install him into position.
And yet there may be truth in the
grave utteranee Of Lamar, who. in writ
ing from New Orleans, says: THE or
ders to the army to concentrate in New
Orleans. IS a stage towards the oyerturn
Of constitutional liberty and the e.tab-
lishment of military despotism. If
this policy succeeds. no Presidential
election hereafter will be made except
under direction of the army"

A PLEA ron PEACE.

The Journal Of Commerce remarks The
peaeefuihess that pervaded the entire
South on election day. and inyeighs
against the foolish tyranny of station
ing troops there. In urging more
thorough feeling Of amnesty, that paper
says:
There ought now to be truce 10 all
party feeling in this matter. The peo.
pie have spoken, and the Republicans
should hee the verdict. The President
should obey the popular mandate and
az once Withdraw the troops who are
idling away their time in the Southern
States. Such an act would promote
the good feeling which is now fast over
spreading the South, and bring hleas-
ings TO the whole country ia the in
creased hopefulness. industry and en-
tsrprisc of that section. At the re-as.
scmbling Of Congress the President
should send in his recommendation for
the granting OF n universal amnesty.
and c0nGress should adopt il insfantsr
This would be Mt once piecgDef pure
Justice nno 3 measure Of courtesy and
good policy which would rebound more
to the credit Of the Republicans than
any OF their recent legislation. The
sooner the Southern people are fully re-
stored TO their fraternal relations with
the North, the more speedily will the
depressed business of the country be re.
vived to something like it's former life
and vigor."
Even the New York Tr,6uns, bitterly
partisan since Greeley's death, comes
out with these words;
Now that the fight has been fought
and the issue determined, there will be
