Republican Harmony.

We present the following to our readers, merely to show that “the greatest harmony prevails among the Republicans.’' It is a beautiful exhibition of brotherly affection : Some of the third-termers go so far as to say that they would “rather have Hancock than another Hayes,” and they want assurances that Garfield will not follow in the footsteps of his illustrious predecessor. We presume the truth will make them free to vote for Garfield.—Cincinnati Commercial (Rep.). If this means anything, it means that Garfield’s administration is to bo mortgaged in advance to the machine which was smashed' and broken in Chicago. If any such bargain i made, Garfield will stand a lively chance of defeat at the hands of the independent voters, and deserve to.— Springfield Republican (Rep.). If Gen. Garfield has any fnfluencc over the so-called “ Beformers,” he should exert it t’o keep them from such exhibitions of idiocy as the above. The “ machine” represents 95 per cent, of the party. It will vote for Garfield to a man, and anybody who thinks it will then quietly allow itself to he thrust aside in favor of a- lot of sneaks and hypocrites is a great simpl.y ton—that’s all. One experience of that kind is 4uite enough.— Globc-livnwcrat (Rep.).
