They may stand on their dignity and consider
themselves insulted when asked to give secu-
rity for their good faith; no ono can
hinder them IN it; it seems to be
their habit. Still it is 10 be considered that
they are in power only by the sufirages OF
the people, and that their tenure of Office Is
not permanent. There arc neighbOrhoods. we
are told, in which the sense of personal honor

to sign prcmissOry note for his personal In
dcbtedncss, holds himself insuited, gets mad and
threatens TO blow the top of his tOOnrgent cred

stood that these sensitive citizens found great
difficulty in getting trusted the second time.
The Democrats in the House and Senate have
come into possession OF the Legislative depart
mcnt of the Government because the people
have been induced to believe that they accepted
the results Of the war fully and Internationally.
But they somehow get very angry when they
are asked just to give a memorandum to that
effect. They feel insulled by what seems to
them u want of confidence. We must have
confidence in them. This is Il confidence

The refusal of the majority of the House
Naval Committee to recommend a criminal
prosccuton Of Mr.. Robson is one of those
rare symptoms of Democratic good sense and
fairness which unfortunately never develop
sufficiently to indicate the presence OF deep
seated disease.

Committee made 10 attempt TO break down
the testimony of James Is. Campbell, the
Democratic lawyer of Charleston, who has

THR DEMOCRATIC YiEW or SMITH WEED.
There Is something particularly instructive
"and useful in the view taken by our DEM
ocratic friends of the testimony Of that patient
pilgrim, Mr.. Smith NJ. Weed From ms
own straightforward" testimony, 1t APP
pears that this pilgrim went to South
Carolina in 1876 with the purpose of
capturing the vote OF that State for
Mr. Tildcn; that lac entered into ncgOiia-
tons with certain persons tn that end; that
he agreed to pay,a sum of moDey-hc thinks
GO.00O-to bride the electors; that he had,
n he supposed, completed the necessary ar-
raugcments and came north 10 Baltimore
to receive the money, and that wien he
arrived there he found that the money
could not he raised. and the scheme CGnSe-
qucut,y fell through. Back of MI Weed was
Mr. Pclton; back of Mr.. PcltOn, and in the
most intimate and confidential relations with
him, were Mr.. Tildcn and the Democratic Ma
iional Committee The transaction having
been carried Oh III cipher dispatches, which
fell into the hands Of THE TRIBUNE and
were dccphcred and made public, it
was impossible to avoid an official
investigation of the affair. II is in tins in
quiry that Mr.. Weed appears as witness and
relates the plain sorry told yesterday in full,
and briefly summarized above. How does it
affect the average Democrat!
One would suppose, from the long-drlwn
continuous and mOhotonous wall kept up by
Democratic newspapers over suspicion of
fraud on the part of the Returning Boards
in two or three States, that this shocking
re-, citation of conspiracy to buy the PrcSi-
dcncy ont and ont, made by one of the con-
spirittor, Themselves, would have been listened
to with shame and modification, and the
whole proceeding pasSiOnately and iudig-
nantly denounced. Whoever expected it was
disappointed Mr.. Weed, as we learn
from THE H'ord. is a practical pol
"itician." into whose mind "it came
NATURALLY" to " hire" the Returning
Board "t0 certify the truth" and his ac-
count of his own proceedings is perfectly
" straightforward. and there il evidently
"nothing about them of which he is at all
"aShancd." Another, and in the mind of The
W0rId evidently the most important feature in
The examination of this witness, is that Mr..
"Wced finds a number of dispatches attributed
~ 10 him which he never sent, "A number of dis
"patches sent by HIM which have been either
misprinsad or mistranshtcd in THE TEIB-
" rNE, and a number of dispatches given as
" Iii, which were both msprinted and mis-
"a a. .

Grants Nomination Assured.
st. Louis Post.

The question was, Isit posi-
BILE that Grant can be nominated
for a third termg The question
now Is, IL 1t possible that his
nomination next year can be
defeated' Is it9
lie will start with q solid
South" in his favor-that is, u
solid delegation from every
Southern State in the Repub-
lican National Convention.
The negroes and carpst-bsggers,
who constitute the Republican
party in tho South, are al enthu-
siastic for Grant for as many
forms rs he plouscs.
It only requires = majority to
nominate in the Republican con-
vention. But it only requires
the seventy votes of New York
added to the solid vote OF the South
to have that majority for Grant.
And everybody knows that Conk
ling and tho "machine' will 70 for
Grant most heartily in preference
to any other candidate.
But Don Cameron and his ring
own Pennsylvania, and will give
the great vote of that debauched
State 10 Grant with rs much cer-
tainty US the rising sun. Here.
then, wo SEQ how the simple will
of Conkling and Cameron, with
the vote OF tho South, can secure
Grams nomination by an over
whelming majority.
And this is not NIL. In Illinois
and Michigan, and Wisconsin and
Kansas, and New Jersey, tho
Grant machine is owned Ms If in
Tee simple by Logan, Chandler,
Carpenter, Robson 4 Go. Their
delegations will undoubtedly NIL
90 for Grants nomination. All
tho present indications point to
this.
Really. it looks very much us II
it were already TO late to organize
il respect table opposition to Grant,
third nomination. It scoms more
probable that he will be nomina-
ted very much in the same manner
and BY the same crowd ms in 1865
and 1872.
