up to the time of the opening of this
presidential campaign, it may be in
ferred that he knows good deal
about it.
Gen. Grant was an attentive listener
to Orton's speech. At the close, Gen.
Grant, Judge Orion, Gen. Brintliff, of
the Darlir gton Republican, and few
friends Of the parties had little So
cial chat on political matters, in the
course of which some one remarked
that he deemed it unwise to attack
Gen. ITancock's military record in
fact that Hancock is, good soldier
and a brave man, or words to that
effect To this sentiment Gen. Grant
gave assent, and then in a qniet way
added:
But Hancock never had an indie
pendent command. During all the
time that the government was looking
for successful commander for the
Army of the Potomac, no one ever
thought of Hancock. And this cannot
be attributed to the fact that he was a
Democrat, for all or nearly all of those
who were given the command of that
army from Mcdowell down (and the
General called off their names) were
Democrats, if they had any politics at
ALL"
Gen. Bintliff, who was present with
yonr correspondent at the interview
with Judge orion, makes essentially
the same statement concerning Grants
words. Both of these gentlemen ex-
press themselves as greatly encouraged
with the outlook, and predict a solid
North, with which to confront Wade
Hampton's 1873. III. b.

in November are growing, if possible
more certain each day. At no time
have the supporters Of Garfield and
Arthur felt in the least doubtful OF
Respondent, nor has there been any
reason for doubt.
It's true there has not been that
Overlooking enthusiasm sometimes
seen in the early stages of a presiden-
tial campaign; but the reasons are cyl
dent. There is a feeling of confidence
based upon tho perfect harmony exist
ing in the Republican ranks, which
seems to make exuberant demonstra-
tions unnecessary. Coupled with this
confidence is a degree of thoughtful-
ness which is significant, and which in
itself would tend to bar out noise and
display.
This quietness, this thoughtfulness
means something. They mean that
the rebellion is not wholly forgotten
They mean that the subsection of our
government to rebel rule through the
votes of Democrats, and under cover
of union soldiers record, is too serl-
Gus thing to he trifled with. There
is something chilling and repressiye
in the contemplation OF its bare posi-
billity.
Under the circumstances it is no
wonder that even the usual blunders
of the proyerbially laundering Dem
ocracy are allowed to pass with but
little comment The actions of the
party are entirely Overshadowed by
the motives which actuate the leaders,
and by the means employed to carry
them out. And yet these blunders are
of interest, not that they will defeat
the party, for the party was defeated
from the beginning; but because they
go to show how utterly incapacitated
the Democracy has become to carry on
the concerns of popular government.
/. The yacillating course pursued
with reference to the money question.
2. The disruption of the party in
many localities, noticeably in New
York and Virginia, for personal ends.
8. The attempt to capture Maine
by fraud.
4. The nomination of a Union sol
der for President to please the rebel
element.
5. The constitutional amendment
escapade in Indiana.
6. The election farce in Alabama.
Z. The attempted fraud in the cen
sus in the southern states.
s. The effort to divert attention
from the real issues in the present
to those which are wholly
fictitious; that is, to make the issue a
personal one between Garfield and
Hancock.
These blunders OF the Democrats are
all of very serious nature. and, under
ordinary circumstances, would be re-
ceived as such by jubilant Republi-
cans. The absence of enthusiastic de-
monstrations now indicates that the
people at large appreciate the gravity
of the occasion. They are looking be-
yOnd their immediate surroundings.
They are looking to the future, but
with the memory of the past ever be-
fore them. This is not a time for
noise, but for earnest, thoughtful,
persistent work.

Owing to modern Democratic ALI.
ances, as well as to the tendencies OF
Democratic doctrine from the days OF
Calhoun to the days of Buchanan, men
who believe in the Union, and who
hold TO the idea Of equal rights and
perfect liberty in all parts thereof,
must of necessity act with the Repub-
lican party. 1t is true there are many
who, with James G.. Blaine, think Re
publicans are greatly to blame for the
unsatisfactory state of affairs now ex-
listing in tho South. We are among
these. We are entirely out of patience
with that milk-and- water kind of Re-
publicanism which has made it posi-
bic for the would-be assassins of the
government to perpetrate such out
RACES as have recently been seen in
Alabama. 1t seems as if after twenty
years control of the government the
Republicans ought to have secured
free speech, free ballot and an hon
est count to the colored people at the
South, if there be any sincerity in par
ty professions.
Why has it not been donep
Let the party commence a reform
within itself. Let it nominate and
select men who will enforce the laws
Let it make itself worthy of the sup
port it claims. Let it place Garfield
