The New York San, editurially !:

If Henry Gully, now on trial in Mississippi
and his associates in the murder of the CHS
holm family escape justice through the po
tency of political sympathy, the effect on the
next Presidential election in favor of the Re
publican ticket will not be small. One of the
most powerful influences operating to keep
the Republican party in power consists in the
impression they succeed in keeping up that
the lives and property of Republicans in the
old slave States would not be secure under a
Democratic administration.
Are they sure under Republican admins
trationl If so, why the hegira to Kansas of
the freedmen? 1t is well for the Republican
party to keep this before the country, for
everything has shown that it is eminently
true. Do not try to hang Henry Gully as an
example that would not clean the skirts of
the south or their hackers

THE Pioneers of Virginia City want to re-
ceive Grant in style. A search of the treas
ury disclosed the fact that the funds would
not enable them to receive and entertain him,
and they will perhaps present a box of cigars,
and Grant will entertain them.

SPEAKER RANDALL appears to be IN trouble.
When he appointed the Standing Committee
of the House last March he left vacancies to
be filled by four Democratic Congressman to
be elected this year. "The best laid plans of
men and mice gang aft aglee, and Randall
was counting his chickens before they Were
Matched when he left those vacancies to be
filled by Democrats from California. As this
State has elected four Republican Congress
men, if they should come in for the vacancies,
it would give the Republicans control of some
of the most important committees of the
House. An attempt on the Speakers part to
reorganIze the committee would meet with an
opposition that would be very troublesome to
him.-.Stock Report.
Sam will find way out of it, even if he has
not a precedent, but he seems to have reck-
oned without his host this time, and with his
avowed position in the next Presidential con-
test, his situation is little unpleasant Cal
ifornia should have sent him the four Dem
ocrats, by all means, though his friend Wright
did not do much toward electing them

THE New YoRK DEMOCRACY has split itself
in two in its recent convention. Uncle Sammy
Tilden insisted on the nomination of Governor
Robinson, and Tammany kicked, jumped the
traces and nominated John Kelly so that it
is once more Tilden and Tammany, and sure
defeat to their candidate. Tilden is the boss
manipulation, who sits behind the screen and
pulls the strings. They have set forth
another platform which is about the same
old thing, like obituary resolutions, except
that the efforts of the Democrats at Washing
ton to secure fair trial by jury, and non
interference of Federal force at the polls,
and upholding the system Of untrammeled
sulfra ge-in New York of course-is highly
co nme nded as so they endorse their repr esen-
tatives. The "bolters" have built no plat
form as yet and will probably recline
on that of the Robinson wing. And now
with California Republican, and Maine Re
publican, Fosters election in Ohio conceded,
divided councils in New York, and Uncle
Sammy drawing ahead FOR nomination, and
"sold South with finger away into the
pie; what are they going to do about it!

COMPLIMENTS

Many of the State journals have mentioned
in the kindest and heartiest manner the fact
that the APPEAL has entered upon a new vol
ume. We appreciate these encouraging and
Hattering words from our friends, and ask
them to accept our thanks along with the Gas
surance of our highest consideration, etc. y
but to be consistent with our idea of a proper
degree of modesty and delicacy in journalism
we cannot republish the column or more of
extracts laid aside for future pleasant refer
ence.

GRANTS TRIP.

| GRANTS TRIP.
The San Francisco Reception Committee
have issued an address to soldiers and sailor.
in which they say
| The great Captain of the age, and twice
elected President of the United States, Ulysses
S. Grant, is coming up on our Western shore.
! In returning to his own land he completes
a circuit of the world, which has been an un-
broken ovation. Royalty and Republicanism,
| titled rulers and civic statesmen, the oldest
powers and the youngest of governments have
Wed with each other in rivalry of hospitality
and kindly greetings at his coming. The great
national heart of America thrsbs in sympathy
with every tribute of respect that has marked
his brilliant journey. 1t now grows warmer
at his approach, and enthusiasm takes the
place of regard. 1t is the exceptional privi-
! lege of San Francisco to be allowed to first
| welcome home our illustrious soldier and citi-
zen. All classes are united here in earnest
purpose to give him such enthusiastic re-
ception as shall show the depth of our affec-
ton and the intensity of our loyalty. This is
to be done, too, without reference to the
politics, party affiliations, sex or creed. His
welcome is to come from the people, and the
whole people.
And to show that in this hour of our eXul
tation there fingers no leaven of hate against
others, We also cordially invite all who bore
any part in the Confederate service to join us
in paying respect to our honored xPresi
dent. His magnanimity to his foes may well
call for reciprocity of good feeling, and We
shall regard their coming as an act of graceful
courtesy.
Grant has had honOrs enough heaped on
his head to turn the brain of any common
man, but he receives them with the same
complaoency with which he smokes cigar,
going forward in his own way isturbed
either by the fattery of sycoplants, the malice
Of his enemies or the ovations of the public
ovations which have sprung from the maghe
tism which surrounds the great soldier
popular statesman, and modest man. The
howl will 60 up IN a few days that Grants
trip across the continent was onl y an election
eering cruise, to make capital for the next
campaign, and then will come up the "Third
term bugbear-the feelers thrown ont as to
whether he wants it or don want it, and taunts
of coquetting with the question to all of which
he will answer with puff at his cigar. Now
Grant has had enough of political clamor
around his enough of the cares of office,
and all he can reap of honors, and
he would probably be glad to reeire to a
degree of privacy and the promotion
of his pet scheme, the Inter oceanic Canal,
and leave the cares and honors of office to
others. There is nothing more certain than
this, that General Grant will never be the
candidate of faction, and will never enter
the lists against several others who are as
good men as he is. If it were necessary to
success, we have no doubt Grant would run,
but it is doubtful if he would on any other
grounds, and we have sincere conviction
hat he is not seeking the Office, and will re
fuse to be a candidate for nomination against |
some men who are prominently before the |
people.

The Virginia Chronicle saws

The Chisolm assassination will 90 down to
history as a black reproach to a political party
which prolonge its life after health was gone,
by seeking to blast with lies the good name of
the South in order to create in other sections
of the Republic a prejudice that would result
in votes for itself
That's good for the Chronicle score them
one. 1t is equal to the assertion of a friend
of ours, that Col, Harper, the raving lunatic
of The Okolona States, is hired by the Repub-
llcan party to keep up the excitement Some
of these fellows are so astute as to give one
the idea that they live on beans.
