since 1872.

Gratis have done better work and have
won larger victory at this extra session
than was expected.

seems to be neck deep in the Roach sub

the 'most popular man in the Republi-

Richmond State Dem J: 1t looks very
much as if the foolishness in Ohio had
made the nomination of Tilden neces-
sity. Indeed there appears to be no
other way out of the dilemma.
New York Tribune (Rep.) The Pre8i-
dent comes up as fresh as a daisy after
his fourth veto, and smiles as who should
say: "If you would like some more,
gentlemen, we shall be happy to accom-
modate you"
New York Star (Dem.): Ohio's Green
hackers, by their course at Toledo yester-
day, will have the satisfaction of march
ing with the victors, as well as the con-
sciousness of having proved that Sherman
could not buy them.
Chicago Tribune (Rep.): "Whatl" "
says the Democratic Congress to the
President "You won't apologize, and
back down, and eat dirt? Then we will"
There is nothing like an accommodating
disposition to make the Government go
on smoothly
New York World (Dem.): Still an
other great and good man has been dis
inferred, disinfected and received into
the shining throng Of the Grant pba-
lanx-Credit Mobilier Patterson, of New
Hampshire, to wit, whom sober Chan
dler calls cone of New Hampshire's most
brilliant public men,"
Harpers Weekly (Rep.): The extra
session, with all its follies, and notwith-
standing the universal public disgust and
impatience, has not been wholly useless.
1t has shown plainly the Democratic dis
position to renew the contest between
National authority and State rigllts-a
contest, however, which we venture to
say has been settled for this generation.

THE high-toned chivnlry of the Democ-
racy ale aEhha.st at the certainty of the pros
pect that BEN BUTLER viii secure the re-
cognition and an admission of his delegates
by and into the next Democratic National
convention. This certainty is doubly as
sured by the fact of the adhesion of the
TARBoX faction to Butlerism and the gem
erul concentration aud solidifcation of the
ioreign-born vote in support of the BUTLER
ticket. Deserted by these two elements,

mocracy, as they delight to call themselves,

go West, young man." was the advice
of HORACE GREELEY the Admiuistra-
tion is now acting upon it with much
fidelity. The President is West, ScHuRz
is West, Secretary THOMPSON is West,
Secretary MCCREARY is just dying TO
20 West, and Secretary SHERMAN cannot
be kept from the West much longer. Mr..
RoGEIs, the Presidents secretary, has fol-
lowed the example Of the President, aud
has also abandoned the White House and
gone to Ohio for rest and recuperation. 1t
is now intimated that President HAYES has
gone to meet GRANT. The Government is
a well-adjusted machine that will run itself

THE illiteracy of the Republican and
Democratic States, compared, show the fol-
lowing result: In the Republican States
the number Of illiterates is 722,1l5, while
in the Democratic States the number is
3722,3ss. Thus it is made apparent that
Democracy thrives best in the midst of ig-
norauce. Indeed, it is what that party feeds
upon. Where ignorance, vice and crime do
most prevail there the Democratic party has
its thriitiest growth. This bare fact teaches
the lesson that the interests of a Republic
which can only exist aud thrive in the
midst of intelligence, cannot be safely en-
trusted to the care of the Democratic party.

HUSTLED HIMSELF OUT.

GEORGE WILLIAM CURTIS has at last
flirted himself out Of the Republican line,
and we sincerely hope he will keep out, for
he has only been lumber in the warehouse
of the Republican party for years. He is
undeserving of confidence or even recogni-
tion as a Republican, for he has shown him
self to be an arrogant dictator and con-
temptibe marplot, who is neither to be
respected nor trusted in politics. He has
taken advantage Of his position as editor of
u popular journal, which has heretofore
shown strong Republican sympathies and
proclivities that are in accord with the un-
derstood principles and feelings of its pub
fishers and proprietors, to play the part of
the dictator and betrayer. Hdrpei's Weekly
has held warm place in the Republican
heart, and has had its chief support from
and purpose let it be so understood, and
Republicans can elect for themselves whether
or not they will continue their favor and
patronage in its support. If it is unchanged
in sentiment and desires still to retain Re-
publican confidence, we see no way by which
prompt and permanent divorce of GEORGE
WILLIAM CURTIS from its editorial man
agement. 1t must cleanse itself thoroughly
| from such political incubus and malaria,
or be counted out of Republican confidence.
If Mr. CURTIS perfers Democratic sue
cess in the State of New York at this
| iuncture, he is no friend to Republicanism
or to the best interests of his country. He
attended the Republican State convention
as delegate in au interest hostile to Mr..
CORNELL. This was his right aud privilege.
He submitted his cause to the arbitrament
of that body, and its Judgment was adverse
to his wishes. Then, rs true and reliable
Republican and an honorable man, he was
bound by its decision-but his conduct now
indicates that he is neither. In the scale
of pnrty integrity he falls far below KELLY.
The difference between them is, that KELLY
bolted before the nomination was made,
and CURTIS afterward, though a mem
her of the convention, and had permitted
Mr.. CORNELL TO be nominated without u
protest to the convention against it, or an
intimation to the body of his detection.
He went in aud sneaked out of the
convention in sulen silence, thus carry
ing the concealed weapons Of his
recreancy home unused, to be displayed in
Huper'S Weekly, where he could do the
most mischief to the Republican cause. He
now tells the readers Of that paper that
there is but one way to defeat the ina
"chine," and that is to scratch the name of
CORNELL from their tickets. This is treach-
cry the most dishonOrable. 1t is outright
treason against the Republican organiza-
ton, which it must promptly put its foot
upon aud stamp out 1t has submitted too
long already to this mans arrogance and
insult, and the sooner he is disposed Of, the
earlier the party will be purified Of his de-
fection and malign influence. 1t has
borne his conceited dictation beyond en-
durance and now let the line be drawn,
p and let the traitor take the Democratic side

probability that General GRANT will, at

preciate the man whose action they are
forestalling. He will in all probability in
no degree, by word or act, anticipate the
popular wish or purpose concerning the
next Presidency. He has never thus far
in his life sought any public position, or
shrunk from any responsibility rendered
him by his country, and he will not change
his policy now. On this subject he will
remain the silent man until his country

They can't stop the GRANT boom. They

boom. That is not true. The politicians are
organizing to defeat it. The GRANT boom is n
spontaneous movement and tho politician S
cannot stop it. 1t may be true--it likely IS
true-that BLAINE aud SHERMAN are combin E.
