We cannot help feeling a kind of
sorrow in the defeat of Gen. Grant.
Not that another man is nominated, but
that one so distinguished in his military
career, so fortunate in the tremendous
undertaking of bringing nation out of
the chaos of war, and so renowned the
world over, should allow his star, at
at least for the time being, to be dimmed
by contest for political Office. 1t is
probable that he was sincere in his
statement that he did not desire the
Office of President; but his friends iu-
sisted on making him a candidate, and
the indications for some months pointed
TO him as the inevitable candidate, and
he gradually yielded. When fairly in
the fight, that unconditional surrender"
and that Eight it out on this line" spirit
arose within him and he permitted him.
self to be in losing battle. The blame
should rest on those who forced his can
didacy. Gen. Grants history is made
and it cannot be blOtted out any more
than can that of Alexander, Napoleon,
Washington or Lincoln. His name will
be great when the host of political cal.
umniators and the thousands of adoring
friends now living will be utterly for.
gotten. Whatever has been unpleasant
in this matter will soon 60 out of the
memories of the millions whose country
is hOnored by the name of Grant.

that the Sherman forces, aided by some
of the wavering Blaine men would turn
to Garfield. On the next ballot he re-
ceived fifsy votes and the convention was
in a state of excitement and surprise.
Soon after the seth ballot commenced
Connecticut turned for Garfield, and
state after state followed until he re-
ceived the larger part of the Blaine votes,
all the Edmunds votes and nearly all of
those formerly given to Sherman. 1t
was discovered before the ballot ended,
that another Ohio man would secure the
high distinction of being nominated for
the presidency. The result of the bal
lot was as follows: Garfield, 500 Grant,
300; Blaine AZ; Sherman, 3; Wash
burne, 5. Senator Conkling Immediately
sprang to his feet and moved that the
nomination be made unanimous, which
was done amid great cheering. The con-
vention Immediately adjourned.
On Resembling for the selection of a
Vice President, Gen. @. F. Arthur of
New York was nominated, and received
a majority of votes. Gen. Arthur is a
lawyer by profession, and received his
first distinction in defending runaway
negroes. He carried one case up to the
highest court and won his case. During
the war he was connected with the army.
He was Collector of the port of New
York, under Grant, but was bounced by
President Hayes on account of his refu'
sal to comply with the Presidents orders
in regard to civil service reform. Arthur
is machine politician of the Conkling
school, and his nomination, outside o.
New York, will add no strength to the
ticket. He is probably strong in New
York City and State, and was probably
put on the ticket to strengthen it il
the great pivotal State. The shouting
over the ticket will be GARFIELD an(
Arthur. Gen. Garfield is only abou
forty-nine and is in very robust health.

shafts of envy, criticism and political
calumny, but his record is remarkably
pure one, as the sharp canvass now be-
gun will show. He is no inferior ''dark
horse" with lame or unknown record,
but a strong, valiant, aggressive man,
who was born for labors and victories,
and destined to rise to lofty heights, had
this new place fallen into other hands.
The party may we'll rejoice, that out
of the fierce fighting, in which the lead
ing candidates had been terribly POM
melled by the friends of their rivals, a
man has been selected possessing
nearly every positive merit, and who is
so generally acceptable to all. Had ii
not been for the fact that President
Hayes is an Ohioan and that Secretary
Sherman was from Ohio, and candi.

been prominent early in the campaign.

DEATH OF HON. CHARLES
w. WILLARD.

The citizens Of Montpelier generally
were surprised to hear of the death of
Hon. Charles w. Willard, in the earli-
est minutes of June s, although they
knew that for some years past his phys
ical powers had been failing. His
great intellectual powers, however, were
clear and strong to the end, and his
last years work was one of the most
laborious of his life. Mr.. Willard was
born in Lyndon, June Is, 1927, and
graduated at Dartmouth college IN 1861.
He Immediately entered upon the study
of law at Montpelier, and was admitted
to the bar of Washington county in
1868. Acting for short time as re-
porter of legislative proceedings for the
writer of this notice, Mr.. Willard be
came acquainted with the leading men
of the state, and so commended him
self that in 1866, in his twenty-ninth
year, he was elected secretary of state.
To this Office he was re elected in 1856,
and in 1857 he declined another cleo
ton. In 1860 and 1861 he was a
member of the state senate for Wash
ington county. In 1861 he became
editor of the Green Mountain Freeman.
and subsequently proprietor. In 1868,
IN his forty-second year, he was elected
to the forty-first congress for the first
Vermont district, and was reelected to
the forty-second and forty-third CON
crosses. His scholarship, extensive
reading. and familiarity with public
questions in politics and social reforms,
made him very able editor. In con-
gress his ability and readiness as : de-
batter, and his fearless independence Of
all leadership, gave him the respect Of
all parties, and a good reputation
among likeminded men in every part Of
the country. 1t is not for the writer
to estimate him as lawyer; that be
longs to those who can do him justice
and doubtless will do so in a meeting o
the bar to which he belonged. He wa
