decent thing-come back to your first
love. These Republicans ringsters will
not love you unless they can always use
you.
Canton, O., Repository (Rep.): When
Governor Bishop went into the Guber-
material Office he determined to make a
fool of himself once week for one hun
dred and four weeks. So far he has not
missed a week.
New York Mail (Rep.): The negro
migration may yet prove providential
in helping to bar the way of the Bourbon
South and of the oligarchic monopolies
of California toward an occupation of
Northern Mexico.
Louisville News Dem.): An out-and-
out Democratic paper will soon make its
appearance in Washington. 1t is stated
that the "Post," which has Democratic
leanings, is not altogether free from what
appears to be stalwart influence.
Boston Post (Dem.): The net ordinary
expenditures of the General Government
in 1860, the last year of Buchanan's ad-
ministration, amounted to $60,056,754
In 1878, under Hayes, the amount was
S13l 1863, ,452, exclusive of interest. Re
publicanism has been an expensive
luxury.
Council Bluffs Globe DENY: Repub-
lican Kansas is on her ear. She swears
by all that is good and bad that she will
go Democratic at thenext election unless
the negro exodus is put stop to at
once. So it seems that it makes differ
ence with Republicans even whose heifer
is being plowed with.
Albany Argus (Dem.): The Republi-
can organs are not wise in their day and
generation. They should meet together
and agree upon some plan of attack on
Mr.. Tilden. The constant vituperation
which they shower upon him does not
hurt him in the least, but serves rather
to strengthen him in public esteem.
Springfield Republican Qnd.): "Rev-
olution' is in the air again at Washing
ton. This is the third time in three
years. There was one when Hayes with
drew the troops; one when the Democrats
passed the Potter resolution, and now
Mr.. Garfield waves his red flag at the
approach of another revolution"
Keokuk Constitution (Dcm.): Bragg,
of Wisconsin, the Democrat who de-
nounccd in such strong terms the pay
ment of any rebel debt or claim, and
whom the Republicans praised so highly,
has been placed as Chairman OF the
Hoffse Committee on War Claims. This
does not look as if the Democrats intend
ed TO outrage the country by the pay
mcnt of any Southern debt or claim.
Dayton Democrat (Dem.) For a party
that every couple Of years is crushed
under the weight of forty thousand to
sixty thousand Democratic majority, the
Kentucky Republicans make deal of
noise. Just now they are in danger OF
rupturing bleed vessel in "hollerin "
for Grant. Three years ago they wasted
their wind in booming the Bristow move
ment. These loud-voiced fellows are al
ways Oh the losing side.
Philadelphia Inquirer (Rep,): There
is no surer way of killing off candidate
than putting him on the track, and keep.
ing him there too long before the race
comes of. If the friends of the men now
prominent persist in pushing their claims
| for the Presidential nomination, and con-
tinue to urge the advance campaign now
going forward on the present high-pres-
sure plan it would not be at all strange
to see their names fade from the lists en-
tirely, their strength utterly exhausted,
and their apparent popularity worn out
before the nominating conventions come
together, and the large sums Of money
they and their friends are spending only
create demand for more.
Utica Herald (Rep.): As the South
sows, so will she reap. Whatever opinion
of her she forces the North to take, thai
opinion will be radically carried out il
her political attitude. Every day tha
this contest in Congress continues-a con
test for which the South alone must tax,
the responsibility-the probability OF th'
denomination of Grant grows stronger
The denomination of Grant means tht
perpetuation of sectionalism, and th'
fierce revival of all the antagonism
which date from the war. We believ'
the North will regret this quite as mucl
as the South will certainly have occasion
to regret it. The prospect is not pleas
one one to look forward to. But it i
Just now, and for very plain reason W
| have endeavored to show forth the ON
most likely to be realized.
