Directly upon the adjournment OF the
Cincinnati Convention, Democratic papers
announced with great flourish that Gen.
U. s. Grant had announced himself in ia
vor of Gen. Hancock. As soon as the
matter came TO the knowledge of General
Grant he took occasion to deny the charge.
In speech made at Galena, ILL.,, his home,
on Saturday night last. lie said IF am
spared, although shall be some distance
from you on the 2d of November, | shall
return to Galena to cast one Republican
vote for president of the United States
and l hope the city of Galena will cast a
round Republican vote, such as it has new
er cast betorc.'' As with Gen. Grant,
other prominent Republicans over the
Union have been accused OF deserting the
Old Flag. but each in turn have come to
the front. ard not only denied ever having
said or even thought of going over to De-
mocracy, but have asserted their entire
satisfaction with the ticket and their de-
termination to work aud vote for its sue
cess at the polls in November.

asserted that the honored Secretary of the
Grand Lodge of the I.O.O.F. OF this Stare,
Hon. ). III. Bacon. of Oregon City. had
deserted the Republican party and announc
ell his intention OF voting for Hancock.
The Standard had no sooner made its ap-

The Principles for which Lee and
JACKSON Fought

The candid avowal of Wade. Hampton
that the t'solii South is contending
for the same principles for which Lee and
Jackson fought, at once awakes the query,
''What are the principles Lee and Jackson
fought for 20 The answer is The right
of secession is the principle for which Lee
and Jackson 2rofessedIy contended. They
claimed that any State could dissolve the
Union at its pleasure. Against this doc
trine of secession the loyal people of the
country raised vast armies, expended
billions of money, aud sacrificed the lives
of more than two hundred thousand pa
triots.
And now this same old rebeIIieIs Dem
ocratic party. avowing the same principle
of secession, with Gen. Hancock, s.late
Union General at its head, comes to the
front and demands that the interests OF
this whole country should be placed in its
hands It comes boldly declaring that it
still has for its cardinal plank the right of
secession-''the same principles for which
Lee and Jackson fought for four years. y
Can the people of this country afford to
give the Government into the hands of "a
party which has for it's sole principle hut
one idea, and that the right of secession ?

Mr.. English, in his letter OF acceptance,
takes the high ground that any party. after
twenty years OF power, ought TO stand
aside and let the other side run the Govern
ment awhile. This may be good Dem

of the party has been qnite different.

the Democratic party had full adminisrra-
tive, legislative and judicial charge of this
country for more than twenty years, when
the people voted change in 1860. He

GouId's New Railroad Scheme

4 Washington telegram says that Jay Gould has made up his mind to extend the Unlon Pacific 10 Puget Sound, and that 1t will branch off from the Union Pacific a, Cheyenne. This project does not seem to be one in which there is much money, and we hardly think Jay Gould will build a railroad for glory He has already built narrow guage road from Ogden north to Montana, and is extending It west in the direction of Oregon. This leaves the main line $50 miles west of Cheyenne, and consequently saves that much road bed, over an exceedingly rough and rugged country. His Ogden branch has been completed to a point on Snake river, Idaho, 200 miles west, and had he any idea of building through to Puget Sound it seems that he would adopt this route, and save the building of at least $50 miles of new and expensive road. IL may be that d branch road to the Yellowstone Park might pay in tune, but even that looks doubtful at this date. Jay Gould never invests money where there is any doubt about it paying.
