TEE UNCERTAINTIES OF PREsIDEN
TIAL ASPIRATIONS.

1t is trite observation that the
men who make the most strenuous en-
deavors TO reach the Presidency, never
succeed. If this were all it would not
matter much, bat it is equally true that
the men who best deserve this honor, who
have done most service to the country,
who have distinguished themselves most
by their craftsmanship and intellectual
power, always fail of the nomination.
The history of National Conventions is
little more, during the last fifty years, at
least) than record OF defeats scored
against the strongest candidates, and in
many cases against the candidates pre-
ferred by the people. Take the Chicago
Convention this year. Three candidates,
Blaine, Grant, and Sherman, anquestion-
ably together represented the preferences
OF four-ffths of the Republican party.
These men had borne the brunt and burden
OF the day. They had laborcd hard FOX
the prize. They had made it evident that
they had more or less popular backing.
But for all that every one of them has to
retire, and man who had not sought the
place receives the nomination The fact

NOW FOR THE ABUSE.

The Democrats viii have to nominate a
very good man to make any kind OF run
against General Garfield, and the worst of
it is that the kind Of man they require
is scarcely ever Democrat. If they can
not find 4 strong candidate, however, they
can, and will, follow the advice of the old
lawyer, and "abuse the plaintiffs attor-
ney." The Bourbon organs have in fact
already trained their mud batteries upon
Garfield, and from this time forward they
viii invent charges of all kinds against
him. 1t is somewhat curious that the
Use'e ssness OF campaign SANDER never oc-
ours to these people. for if they used their
eyes they could quickly enough perceive
that it IS ineffective. As rule nobody
believes charges which are made against a
candidate for Office. No doubt some of
these charges are sometimes we'll founded,
but SO large percentage of them have al
ways been inventions that the public pre-
fers to reject them in mass, and bases it's
opinions Of the candidate upon what it
really knows of him, which is to be got at
by studying that part of his life which has
no connection with his candidacy. The
one fac. that General Garfield has been re-
elected to Congress from the same district
Tor seventeen years is of itself sufficient
answer to almost anything the Democrats
can say about him. But he will be judged
by his record, and not by the statements
of his opponents, and that is sufficient.

THE sEN71mENr REGARDING GARFIELD.

The nomination OF General Garfield has
been received all over the country in a
way which conclusively indicates the
strength and wisdom of the selection To
appreciate this reception the depth of the
previous excitement over other candidates
must be taken into account His nomina-
ton inevitably involved serious disappoint-
ment for all who had favored Grant, Blaine,
Sherman, Washburne and Edmunds. Had
m ordinary man been put forward under
such circumstances there would have been
a very feeble acquiescence in the result,
and total absence of enthusiasm. But
Gariields native strength is such thatit al
most Immediately overcsme all feeling of
ehagrin or disappointment, and all united
in declaring that if the favorite could not
be nominated, this was emphaticslly the
next best thing. In little while the
majority will come to believe that the
nomination of Garfield was uncou-
ditionally the best thing that could
have happened, for the favorable
sentiment elected at such a moment fore
tells campaign of unprecedented enthus-
iasn. It is no obscure man who has been
placed at the head OF the party, but one
whose career every intelligent Repub-
licap has followed for years with increas-
ing approval aud satisfaction the leader
of the party in the House; the man who
has sat in rine Congresses, representing
the venerable and glorious old Ashtabula
District of Ohio the gallant soldier, the
strong debater, the sound and sober states
man He has already united the Repub-
hcan party as it has not been united for
ten years. He has brought together all
the dissatisfied and apprehensivo clements.
He has given the beat friends of the party
assurance that its banners are not to be
trailed in the miro again. He has made
victory certain.

over the honor paid to a member of the

unite with their opponents in giving three
cheers FOR Garfield. The strength of the
nomination was admitted by the Demo

nize the ability and force OF General Gar
