THIRD TERMISM.

The principle involved in the elcc,

tion very considerable opposition will
be manifested against him where il is
least expected. The Democratic party
need only appeal to the intelligent and
earnest voters Of our country TO
awaken in their minds u just appro.
hension of the danger which must at
tend upon the re-electing Of man Tor
the third time to be Chief Magistrate
of the nation. There are enough of
worthy men better qualified for the
high Office of President than Gen.
Grant, and We are greatly mistaken Il
the Radical clique who back the Gen.
eral and who will, if possible, force his
nomination, can elect him. The great
dishonesty, incapacity, and inefficiency
displayed by the men appointed to of
fee by Gen. Grant, while be was an
incumbent Of the White House, are
not forgotten by the people, and the
knowledge of this fact will not be
likely to improve his chances for rc
election o third time. Under Grant.
ne President, fraud was practiced in all
departments Of the Government and
the sums of money filched from the
national treasury were Of gigantic di.
mensions, Moreover, il is notorious
that Grant did not wisely select the
fittest men for Office but instead filed
important and responsible positions
with hp kinsmen, and with corrupt
and noisy Radical politicians.
All the above faults of Gen. Grants

ernment will be held up to the pub.

seriously to question the propriety Of
having "strong man" at Washington
when an honest statesman of approved

will also notice how third termism and
Capitalization must finally result in
the overthrow Of our free institutions;
such reasonings will convince them
that the surcst method Of arrestinr

THE BRiBERS SECURE AN.
OTHER LEASE.

AS We had anticipated, the indict-
ment pending against Kemblc and his
coniederates in bribery, perjury and
corruption porpetrated last winter in
the efforts to pass the Riot bill, was
quashed by the court OF Dauphin
county on Wednesday lrst on the
merest technicality. An array of some
fifteen of the ablest lawyers in the
State were on hand to defend the in
dicted rascals and it was not long be-
fore they found a weak point in the
preliminary proceedings TO quibble.
In the beginning the old Judge showed
a determined spirit not to be moved
from the regular course OF Justice by
their sophistical arguments, but in the
end he was bulldosed into quasbing
the indictment. 1t was done on the
technical plea thatas the record showed
but twenty. three grand jurors sworn,
evidence had been addrced to show
that twenty-four had been sworn al.
though this failed TO bc noted In the
record.
This is the second fiasco of tho
prosecution, and in view of the char.
acter Of tho defendants in the suit,
their pecuniary ability, political infu.
encc, and reckless character, the pub.
lie will not bc slow to believe that the
introduction Of the twenty. fourth
man, or interloper on the grand jury
was, to use lobby term. q aset up
job" Else, where was the officer ap.
pointed to guard the rights and inter-
ests Of the Commonwealth that he was
80 derelict as TO not watch the In.
clpient steps in the prosecution, and
allow tho enemy TO invade the temple
Of justice and finally thwart its pur.
posc2 This may seem q harsh judg.
ment but in the light Of what has
transpired we, along with the mass Of
the people OF the State, can cemc to
no other conclusion. The State cuts a
sorry figure in the hands Of such an
officer. In he language Of old Judge
Jerry Black; "The poor Common
wealth stands like the naked man on
the front page Of a Dutch Almanac,
with everybody poking sticks at
him."--Ddnpiiie Infdiigncer.

Ohio man, remarks in his Capital that
"Gai field the gentle and gifted Gar
field, is drifting into the United States
Senate. He will fill Thurman's shoes,
but whether the hat will fit is further
along" Don must have some doubts
about the size of Garfelds head. As
Garfield, while Chairman of u Com.
mite of tho House, was IN the habit
OF taking $4,000 fees from pavement
and whisky rings, it is no wonder his
head is so much smaller than Thur
mans: No bribe of this kind has ever
been traced TO the Senator'S door,
