THE CAMPAIGN OPENS.

- Alabama, State hitherto Republican,
wasthe first in this Presidential campaign
to speak and to pronounce against the
present oligarcby. 1t was for Alabama
to sound the first note of resistance. Fear.
ing thst the balance of the Southern States
would follow in the wake Of Alabama, a
modern Cesar proposes to march his con-
quering legions upon the peaceful people
to prevent them from voting like resist.
ance to his yokes. His military order was
nothing but scheme, to carry by force Of
arms the electoral votes of the Southern
States for the Republican candidate foz
President The scheme was for this and
nothing else. 1t is vile, wicked attempt
70 prevail by aid Of the army. 1t has nc
other pulsation or purpose. And, thus
being wicked attempt to prevail with the
army in the South, will not the people o.
the North resist the wicked attempt, and
manifest their displeasure by rallyine
under the Democratic banner? They cer.
tainly will not discredit their manhood and
independence by voting at the behest Of q
military President and a subservient Sec
retary of War. VIII the people of tht
North not pause and think of what will be
the future of an administration thrust upon
the country by the train band and the
trooper? The opposite of armed domina-
ton is not restricted by j.. lines Of latitude
and boundaries of zones. If we are to be
government of men, and not of laws, let
the test be made in the approaching cleo
ton. Let the people of the North cast
their votes against this hydra headed ad-
vancing military despotism. The people
as yet, have evinced very little interest in
the struggle, but they should be aware
that great political battle is impending
and they should arouse to full realization
ofits great import.
A large number Of Republicans while
uphelding their principles are no apollo.
gists for Grant and his administration
Consistent and ardent members of tina,
party admit that the hard times and dis
graceful administration Of Grant should
lead the party to defeat. Both parties are
engaged in making preparations for for
midable fight, and in short time from
this the opposing forces will come to the
front in full battle array. Notwithstand-
ing the lack Of enthusiasm shown thus far
in the Presidential campaign, there is
great reason to believe that the contes,
will wax warm enough within the nex1
few weeks, and that the victory will not be
an easy one for either party. For weeks
the Republican leaders have been maxim,
every effort on their part 10 arouse thu
rank and file Of their party to full reali
zation of the approaching contest. If tn,
Democrats of New York nominate
strong candidate for Governor, they will
carry the State, and the country will b.

BEEcHER's counsel, in his suit with
Moulton, wants change of venue to the
north. They say that an intelligent and
impartial jury cannot be had in Brooklyn.
The Tribune" thinks the counsel are
right in trying to get a change of venue

The impression prevails that the session
of the New York Democratic Convention
that meets in Saratoga, to-day, will be
harmonious, and that differences between
the Tammany and anti-Tamnany parties
will be settled. 1t is thought that the Guber-
Material nomination lays between Dors-

satisfactory to all factions of the party land

The New York "Tribune's" criticisms
on Bristow as stump speaker are very
severe. 1t denounces Mr.. BIS speeches as
cant, and tells him that the battle is not to
be won by slang whanging, and that it
doesn't pay to take up the worn out ap-
peals and attacks and insinuations of a
dozen years ago, that this is 1876 not 1866
If says the Tribune" Mr.. Bristow must
grasp the weapons of the earlier period,
he should get hold of one that won't cut
his own throat while lunglng at the
enemy. Let US have as little cant as pos-
sible in this campaign, Mr.. Bristow.

FRANK MAYo.-This evening Frank Mayo,
who has attained great repute as 'Davy Crock
ett' in the Western Cities makes his first APP
pearance in this city at Music Hall. The sale
of seats already indicates that he is to have
full house on the opening night. Mr.. Mayo has
been known as an actor of fine talents. but
when he appeared in this play as the chivalric
backwoddsmah it was a dramatic surprise, de.
lighting every one. Since that time he and the
character have become as famous as Joe Jeffer-
son and Rip Van Wrinkle, or Southern and
Lord Dundreary. We could quote volumes
which have been said in praise of his acting,
but space will only allyw the following brief
extract from the st. Lonis Republican:
1t is fact that "Davy Crockett was de-
lghtful surprise, and it is also a fact that the

and picture, and before the end of one short
week the houSeful bore witness to the truth and
value of the discovery. 1t is a new revelation
of our own border land, and developes the best
material which civilization selects to do its
work. 1t builds up man OF heart, and sta
