1t is very discreditable that such
a system of advertising should be re-
sorted TO by the followers Of General
Grant, as if he was some kind of mer-
chandise. 1t is an undignified way to
bring him into notice. Then the talk
about his restoring specie payment.
The fact is, during the eight years of
his administration he did more to rem
der resumption difficult of accomplish
ment, or impossible, than he did to
bring it about. 1t was during his ad-
ministration that the demand notes of
the treasury were increased by reissue
after cancellation, from 1886, 000, 900 to
$378,OOO,O00 and that without any
legal right. | regret to see the move
ment OF foot, for to me it signifies that
the parties who prepare it are p%racti-
cally admitting that our popular form
of government is a failure. The prin-
ciple laid down by the founders of this
government, claiming that the people
shall rule themselves, is to be substi-
tuted by n new and foreign to the
genius of our institutions-that the
ruling power shall be from without,
and not, as was intended, from within
that is, to substitute an involuntary
for a voluntary system. His nomina-
ton would only be the signal for re
newed confusion and trouble through
out the country. In the South the
negroes alone would vote for him, and
the people everywhere know his policy
and ideas of administration, for they
have tried him for two terms, and
know to what desperate straits he has
brought our affairs already"

John Sherman is a stakeholder in
that blessed First National bank of
New York which pocketed a million
dollars of interest during the past
eight months, in which John Sher
man left over 100000 600 in four and
six per cent. bonds, which should
have been sold for the benefit of the
government. In other words, Mr..
Sherman has been using the govern
ment funds to run his own bank, and
if that does not make him a proper
subject for investigation nothing will.
MI. Sherman is a very cunning man,
but in this instance he has neglected
to cover his tracks.-[Ex.
