General Grant as a Candidate.

John Russell Young, who accompanied
General Grant on his trip around the world,
and is probably as well acquainted with
the political plans and purposes of the
TO have but little confidence in the idea
that Grant will be a candidate for the
Presidency. In recent conversation at
San Francisco. he is reported as saying
that he does not think Grant has given the
subject a thought. He says; 1.-The talk
(which have heard since our return, to
the effect that Grant and the party man.
layers were arranging all things, is
"simply disgusting" He also says that
all of Grants correspondence during the
last two and half years will not amount
to more than two dozen letters. and rdi-
cules the suggestion that the General has
been in correspondence with any one in
this country about the nomination for
President.
1t is very plain, we think, from what
Mr.. Young says, that General Grant is not
specially interested in any movement to
make him President again, and has had
nothing to do with the boom started some
time ago in his favor. Circumstances can
be imagined i'm which he might be can
didate for President, but such circumstan-
ces do not appear likely to occur. If war
were imminent between the North and
South there would doubtless be a popular
uprising for Grant to be President that
would elect him again, and which he
would not resist. But there is no danger
Of immediate war with the South, that
section of the country having concluded to
advance on the Capital and government by
political rather than warlike methods, to
defeat which the arts of craftsmanship and
training in politics will be best adapted.
The rare good sense which has always
distinguished General Grant has not aban
doned him in the consideration of this sub
ject of a third term, and probably will not.
He understands the situation much better
than those who have been using his name
so freely as candidate during the last
year.

for pursesof $4,000, to he known as
the ssHOP BITTERS PRIZE" which is
given ny the Hop Bitters company, of
Rochester, New York, a company that
has displayed wonderful liberality in
encouraging athletic sports of the best
class. The race will not be o hippo
drome, but contest wholly upon the
merits of the two, and will create more
enthusiasm than any race that has ever
been pulled in this country. and extraor;
dinary time may be expected. The
event will attract men interested in ath-
letic sports to the lake from every Sec
ton of the country, and arouse degree
of enthusiasm that has probably never
been equalled. 1t is gratifying to low
ers of athletics to see. firm like the Hop
Bitters company evince such an interest
in sporting matters, and when this class
of people encourage sportsmen as they
have by runninga base ball club, and
now by inaugurating this race, it is GER
tain that the standard will be raised and
sporting matters taken out of. the con-
troll Of the gamblers, who aim to govern
all contests Of this class. The men who
help to elevate our sports, and give real
pleasure to. thousands, are in turn de-
serving of the support of the public
particularly when they present to it an
article Of real merit such as are the cele-
brated Hop Bitters manufactured by the
