THE stridulous Especial Of the New
York Herald from this point, who seems to
be the victim of a consuming conviction
that General GRANT is Tho Coming Man,
squcaks little squeak to the effect that the
Third Termers hercabouts complain among
themselves that the General seems to be
writing too many letters, and that he is
committing himself in q way which may
make his nomination in 1sS0 embarrassing
or even impossible. This is overwhelmingly
sad. But ii exposes hope that is father
to the thought. If there is anything Cen
eral GRANT will not do, and which his enc
mics hope he will do, II is just what this
Special" alludes to. But there's no use
wasting time or words over this matter, for
1sa0 is a long way of, and no Republican
that we have heard of has seriously pro-
posed General GRANT rs the only man in
the party for the nomination Mt that time.
In fact, his name is seldom mentioned in
this connection except when the malcon-
tents are so stupid as to expose their fears
Of his great strength with the people. If
they keep on with such exposures they will
nominate him for us in spite Of our prefer
ences, If such exist, for some one else.

NATURALLY enough, our late cotem-
porary, the Union, gravitated into the arms
of the radical Democratic organ, for such is
the tendency Of halting or conservative Re-
publicanism. Tho people will not indorss
any timid policy in such times as these
when the enemy Is laundering at their
doors as defiant and arrogant as in 1851.
The only difference being that they are
now attempting to accomplish by intrigue
aud the ballot what they failed to do before
with bullet and bluster. The line between
the two parties is as distinctly defined to-
day as when our opponents commenced
their hellish work at Fort sumter; now, as
then, there can be no halfway work on
either side there is no middle or cOnserya-
tive ground To occupy; those who are not
for us are against u.s. That the right will
be triumphant in this contest is US certain
as that there is an oyerruling Providence in
the affairs Of men. The policy of pacifca-
tiOn By sacrificing principle has proved to
DO disastrous failure. The disposition

ANOTHER CLAIM IN PROSPECT.

The William and Mary College claim for
relief or indemnity is not the only one that
Virginia is ncubating for Congress to pass
upon. When the rebellion came there was
flourishing military academy at the viii
lage of Lexington, in that State, the resi-
dence Of General r. L. LEE and STOSEwALL
JACKSON. 1t was supported by State ap-
propiations, and was largely instrumental
in teaching the young idea how to shoot
Yankees. The superintendent was and is
now General F. II. SMITH, and SToNEwALL
JACKSON was, anterior to the war; one of
its professors. 1t was nursery of secession
and its young men were accomplished in the
arts of war, and added largely to the eff
ceut official force of the COnied-
crate army. During the rebellion General
HUNTERS forces were quartered in that vi
cnity, and regarding the institution as an
open and efficient enemy to the Union, he
ordered its destruction that the school might
be broken mp, and the work Of destruction
was thoroughly accomplished.
Subsequently the institution was rebuilt
by the State, and is now in successful oper-
alton, preparing other classes of Virginias
sons, perchance, to take an active part in
another revolt against the Union. So soon
as the claim of William and Mary College
shall have been recognized in law that of
this destroyed military academy will follow
upon its heels, and another raid will he
made upon the National Treasury in its be-
half Others still are making ready and
will follow on. There is no end to them.

THE most accurate estimates from all Sec
tions of the country, and especially from
Pennsylvania, show that the strength of the
National party is mainly drawn from the
Democratic ranks. This is an "off-ycar,'
however, and both parties will suffer more
or less from this drainage. But if the Re
publicans are wise enough to keep the in
Equities of our high-toned Southern Claim

The flippant gossip and exaggerated
stories about free and easy manners during
the night sessions of the Senate few weeks
ago, have revived some very unpleasant
"reminiscences, Among them is statement
from ex-Chaplain DIR. GRAY, who says:
Ten years ago, when was chaplain Of the
United States Senate. after had prayed that
drunkenness might bo banished from high
places, q Senator from Delaware offered a rcso.
luton proposing to dispense with prayer. The
next day Senator SUMNER aroso in his place
and moved that that Senator from Delaware
be excluded from the Senate for drunkenness.
From that time, until recently, there have
been very rare cases Of drunkenness in the
Senate"
1t is hardly necessary to add that the
Senator from Delaware alluded to was long
ago relegated to private life; but it is
proper to explain in this connection that
this insinuation or declaration that the
habit Of drunkenness is prevalent in, or
characteristic Of, the present Senate, is q
great mistake. The truth is the Senate has
never before in the history of the Govern
ment been so FREQ from scandal arising from
exhibitions Of this kind rs it is now.
