We HAVE little time or space, this morn
ing. for comment on the result Of the Dis
trict Convention and little comment is
needed. Our readers know something of
what the canvass has been. The contest
j, the Convention was the closest and
most prolonged, that has been witnessed in
any delegate convention of this District,
since the formation of the Republican party.
Tie result is verdict in favor of honest.
clean ard straightforward methods in con-
duc.irg cur politics, worth far more than
the success of any particular candidate.

have TO occasion to be ashamed of their
roninee Ger. Grout will make capable,

And lie aud the rarty are to be congratulat-

on the part OF his opponents. That so
sharp controversy should have been
followed by so little bitter feeling, is truly
remarkable. The essential harmony Of the
party Is undisturbed (; and for this, the
PARTY Is much indebted to Mr.. Barlow and
his leading supporters. No man or men
could have accepted defeat more handsomely.
We believe that the result will commend
itself to the Judgment of the large majority
of the Republicans of the District, and we
corgratulate them on the issue Of the can
yass and the convention.

TIE suggestion of Mr.. Edmunds for the
presidency is commented upon more favor
ably, we fear, than it would be if his nomin-
alton were generally anticipated. At any
rate, it is a sign that the political tone Of
the country is rising. He is bigger man
than has been mentioned for the Office in the
Republican party, certainly by far the ablest
of the senatorial candidates. His integrity
and independence, his intellectual ability,
his perception and frank admission Of the
evils Of administration are all qualities
which should be sought in Mr.. Hayes
successor and which no ether leading Re-
publican enjoys in equal degree. The fact
that his personal bearing is rather cold and
unsympathetic gives him no troops Of devot-
ed clients to press his name, but the open
consideration given to it is in encouraging
contrast to the Grant talk Springfield

This dog was pursued and killed, as he had
every symptom of hydrophobia. A few in

whose dogs had been bitten hugged them

Yet:it was this very dog that was taken sick
a few DAYS ago and died Thursday in q raw
