A significant Letter from oliver

NEW YoRK, February 1s.-A letter
from Oliver johnson 70 Henry O. Bowen,
dated January ~, 1871, and marked
"priyale and ,confdential,p has been
made public. The exciting cause oil
writing 1t was the removal Of Theodore

Carl Shurz on tho Political Situ.
nfiOn.

, Writing in the WestliGhs Posi- over his
initials, Mr.. schurz expresses the opin-
ion that Grant will not be strong enough
in the national convention 20 secure a re-
nomination, but is quite likely to be
strong enough to name the candidate.
This, because he il likely to control the
votes Of delegations representing the
most Objectionable politicians and the
most ignorant members Of tue party
lthe southern delegations), that probably
will not represent a single vote in tho
electoral college. Mr.. schurz thinks it
timO the good elements Of the party were
facing this probability, and considering
their own duty in the premises. "If they
find it impossible within the organization
to serve the real interests Of the. country,
will they not" he asks, "seek TO do it
outsider Every postponement OF this
emancipation is not only loss Of time
and prolOngation Of the perniciOuS
dominance Of cliques, which has already
borne such mischievous fruits, but the
party falls more hopelessly under the
dictation Of organized spoil.seekers and
wire.pullers who have gained the con-
trolling power within it, until at last
even the discipline Of defeat can scarcely
avail to overthrow them" How little
this discipline can be relied on in ex-
tremc cases is illustrated by the present
condition OF the Democracy. Mr.. shurz
does not know where to look in political
history for more melancholy spectacle
Of helpIeSsncss than is presented, to-day,
in the House. How profuse the promise;
how pitiiul the performance?
"And yet we see the machine managers
busy at work, not to carry through the
nomination Of one Of their best men for
President, but that Of some one who en-
tirely represents the want OF substance
and principle in the party, in order that
in this way they may keep the old con-
Germ somehow together; while, upon the
Republican side, through the visible
weakness and failure Of the Democracy,
the most rascally politicians are again
encouraged in the belief that even the
most unworthy Republican nomination
may vet have excellent chances of sue.

stances, those candidates are held in view

makes mo happy now is the simple Cos.
pei truth that God so loved us that he
gave his son for us, and that Jesus died
for us, and redeemed uS.from under the

The law was our school master TO

longer under the school master, but we
are all the children Of God by faith in
Christ Jesus. st. Paul always includes
the ceremonial law, the Sabbath law and
the ten commandments in one word, the
law. And the very fact that We keep the
Sabbath on Sunday, and also tho fact that
many Christians pervert the gospel by
preaching the Sabbath law when they
should preach the simple truth that

Politics in the second District.

pleased to find the people so fully alive
TO the Importance OF the political CAM
paign about TO open. With the excep-
lion OF an occasional fOssiliEed dema-
gogue, who still holds to the traditions Of
the Bourbon fathers that the party can do
no harm, all are earnestly crying for re-
trenchment and reform In the admins
tration Of affairs. The people generally
form correct and sound opinions OF pub.
lie measures aud public men when left
free to exercise their own minds unin-
huenoed by the demagogism OF corrupt
politicians. There is II vast amount Of
good common sense and truth in the trits
saying that "the voice of the people is the
voice Of God" Now that the party lash
Is quietly folded and the true sentiments
Of honest voters can be freely expressed,
ii ia plainly to DO seen that the Bourbon
Democracy have fallen into general dis
repute, and will no longer be trusted by
the honest yeomanry Of West Va. II is the
general opinion here that all our corrupt
