THE political gossips have not abandoned
their speculations regarding the recent re-
organization of the Republican National
Committee, by any means. And they have
recently discovered that of the nineteen
votes cast for General AvERILL for chair
man, one at least, that Of Committeeman
HUNTLEY, was GRANT vote. Mr.. HUNT
LEY frankly says that Senator BLAINE is
his second choice, after General GRANT,
for President, and that he voted as he did
for the purpose of making BLAINE q good
"second." 1t is not improbable that other
votes for General AvERILL were cast in the
same way.

The seditious example of the Louisiana
and South Carolina Bourbons in erecting
State goyernmentsin in those commonwealths
by means Of the contingent process has
had not little to do with stimulating the
similar proceedings now being attempted up
in Maine. This goes to show that success
ful fraud in any section of the country has
tendency TO demoralize the entire people.
-Four years ago such thing as this would
not have been dreamed Of in New England ;
but the series of criminal blunders by which
the Southern Bourbons have been permitted
to establish bogus Home Rule in their States
are bearing legitimate fruit strong,
brave and honest execution Of the laws in
the South, supplemented by realization oil
the real will of the majority of the people
of that section during tho past three or four
years, would have spared us this mhiction
of covert rebellion in the North.

GENERAL GRANTS blunt declaration
that his sympatbies from first to last dur
ing the Franco-Prussian war were with the
Germans exposes the characteristic iDspira-
tions of his habitual train of thought He
analysed the causes of that great struggle
with the clear insight of true statesman
ship and found that LOUIS NAPOLEON had
assumed the bloody, needless and hopeless
responsibility of precipitating it upon the
French people and forcing Germany to ac-
cept the gage of battle. If the right had
been upon the other side his sympathes
would have been with the French As it
was, no German-American can find the
least fault with him regarding this question
dear as it is to their hearts aud at the same
time every true lover Of France who de.
spised or hated Napoloonism will coincide
with him.

THE New York Republican politicians
are just now engaged in spirited maneuvers
and speculations regarding the Speakership
of the next Assembly in that State. Messrs.
JAMES w. Hustled, GEORGE II. SHARPE
and GEORGE L. TERRY are the most prom
inent Candidates for that honorable Office,
and the trouble is that no one seems to
know which one of the three is the favored
candidate Of the incoming State adminis-
tration. 1t is safe to say, however, that
whichever one Of them, or whoever else
may be elected, the Opposition press will
insist that Senator CoNKLING or Governor
CORNELL dictated that result.

THE New York Sun declared not long
means to go further and establish an En-
"pire "-an Empire, mind you, with great,
big E. Nothing less than the biggest L to
be found in its font Of editorial type would
satisfy the inhamed imagination of the
Sun when 1t asserted this belief Mean
while 1t is noteworthy fact that the peo-
pie at large are seemingly satisfied that the
General is devout and devoted supporter
of the idea that this Is a Nation, and the
bigger the N the better it suits them. They
have no fear of the tanner turning aristo-
crat OF of the patriot becoming traitor.

THERE is no outcome to the existing
muddle in Maine that will not tend to the
advantage of the Republicans. The at
tempted fraud is so glariug that the more
candid of the Democratic press denounce it
severely. This may tend to frghten the ras-
calls from their ultimate designs and explode
the fraud before its consummatiOn. In that
event the Republicans will reap decided adj
vantagos iiom the diabolical attempt But
should the plot be carried to the end, and a
