SEVEN WORDS THAT GRANT HAS
NEVER SAID.

! New York Sun.
Neither during his electioneering
journey around the Rorld, nor since
his arrival in California, has Gen.
Grant said single word that will
stand in the way Of his becoming a
candidate for President, if the Re-
publican Convention dominates him.
On the contrary, every declaration
that he has made when approached
on this subject has been shaped 10
help bring about his nomination.
When the people have said that the
Office should seek the man, not the
man the Office, he has protested
WEAKNESS of public life and an incli-
nation to spend the rest of his days
in the capacity Of private citizen.
When the people have said that two
terms should fill the measure of any
mans ambition, he has replied, in
effect, that it was at sacrifice of his
personal wishes that he held the
Office even as long as he did, And
his friends have added for him that
nothing short of a great national
emergency, one which should appeal
20 his patriotism in the strongest
manner. could oyGrGope his 9eluc-
anee to be again candidate.
If the man is ready, the emergen-
y will not be long in making.
There is no time siuce the fourth
# March, 1872, VIXEN the simple an
from Gen, Grant, Il
hall not run again for President"
7ould not have been worth hundreds
f thousands of votes to the Repub
can party. Every possible influ-
nae has been brought to bear to
ring hat encouragement from his
ps. He has remained duwh.
Does any sensible man doubt that
en-. Grant Is still candidate for !
ird term?

THE NEW YORK DEMOCRACY
READY FOR THE FRAY.

NEW YORK, Sept. 29.-The compaign
begins here this week in earnest. The
Democratic State Committee has organ
lied a department of speakers, aud to-
morrow will start out eloquent young
men through the State TO take the stump
and keep it till election day. The ar
engagements for the fight have been made
with rare skill, and the State will DE
most effectively canvassed. One plan Is
to get list of probable votes for Gov.
Robinson and list Of those in the same
community who are in doubtful mood
The committee is daily receiving lists OF
voters canvassed in this way. From one
Assembly district comes the report that
700 Republicans have committed them
selves to vote for Mr.. Robinson against
Mr.. Cornell. The fact that Dir. Cornell.
the machine candidate, and Tammany
Hall have formed an alliance, as is shown
in the effort of the Republican Police
Commissioners TO secure the appoint
ment of the Tammany Inspectors Of
Election, has operated strongly in NJ.
RObinsOn's favor with many Republi-
cans. The most potent campaign argu-
ment is the reduction Of taxation secur.
ed by Mr.. Robinson's administration.

ent James Wormley, Senator Bruce,

there he should remain.

gxPEDLENTs AND ExPERINEN

EXPEDLENTS AND BXPERINEN1S
This is the day of expedients and
experiments.
The masses are seething and roll
irg. grunbling and swelling, under
the pressure Of exaction, and excuses,
restrictive and protective laws. un-
til it is apparent that there will be
trouble, unless something turns up.
Such being the general prospect
the politicians are taxing their brains
20 turn up something, mainly by OBJ
jecting 10 all efforts to pay. The
leading legislators and average Con-
gressmen-those who will die out
unless something does turn up, are
busy with expedients to fud those
wonderful subjects OF taxation that
raises revenue without any ones
feeling it, that always kick the un-
der dog, or to pay debts without
taxes or money, TO make popular
appropriations without taxation-tO
receive full salaries on a retrench'
ment and reduction bill--to reduce
the number of officers without dis
placing the Office holders-to tax
dogs without losing the colOred vote
10 reduce internal taxation and
increase the pension list-to en-
large the free list, cut down the
tariff and still make liberal apprO-
priutions for rivers and harbors, light.
houses and signal stations-Lo keep
up large standing army with an
UNI ecessary number of officers, by
curtailing their power and use. And
the dissatisfied massed are looking
on, accepting every explanation that
promises relief, however vague, how
ever unconstitutional or revolution
ary, and uncertain. The eagerness
With which the people grasp at every
measure-every nostrum marked
"Relief'-shows their unfortunate
condition, and their liability to
ten ptation. Just now North Caro-
lima is in just this pickle. The
Washington Evening Star seems to
be wonderfully interested in the pro-
ceedings of the Old North State. 1t
has studied the case and says ::
North Carolina is considering ex-
pedients for paying her debts. Some
of them resemble that suggested by
De Mauprat of borrowing the money
to do so. Others contemplate re-
duced expenditures and increas-
ed revenues. The Moffett bell
punch is of course proposed. Bur
the decline and fall Of the whiskey
register has been as rapid as its rise.
North Carolina is likely to follow
the example of Florida, which has
just repudiated the bell Punch,a dis
reputation which is
better than that threatened by some
other States in connection with their
Indebtedness. But the great reliance
of the State is upon its dogs. If
these can be taxed or killed, the
State will be saved. 1t is estimated
that the 100000 dogs in North Caro-
lima consume $1,8OO,OOO worth of
corn meal a year, and cause the
loss Of fabulous amounts by inter
fering with sheep raising, and, owing
to a propensity for egg-sucking,
with the raising of poultry. A tax
Of a dollar piece on the dogs would |
furnish large revenue. 1t would |
have this advantage, too: that the
smaller the revenues from its opera
lion became. through the slaughter
Of the dogs, the greater the taxable
of the State in other d.
'ections would become"
