THERE

is truth as well as wit in the

BEFORE

tho war of the rebellion was

ended, the JJomocrats used to inquire of tho Union man "What ara you going to do with the negro The question is thai answered: "Over 500 negroes voted the Democratic ticket at the election, in Savanpah, Chatham county,

deserves the Presiden

cy becauso ho has not sought it by any effort or intrigue. He has avoided polttiv cnl association. Ho has kept his opinions upon public matters to himself. The reticence which he has maintained, was to him in the discharge of his duty, a sacred obligation.' Ho might have vanquished all competitors long ago, if he had been ambitious, by a single word, but he has despised all such effort?, and cared not to win tho honor beforo him by any selfdegradation. He has been in this, consistent, as he has been in all things since he took position in the array after the war lrokt out. As subaltern, as general, us oiiiinniuier of division, corps, or armies, he Ims kept himself to the simple lino of his duty, and known no other interest than to perform what was allotted la him, faithfully and well. After he had successfully closed tho Kobellion by the sprio* of skillful niovemonts which resulted in tlio triumph at Appomattox Court House, he went simply to his duly, and sought no distinction uor strove for tho attainment of any object of ambition. His course since he has assumed tho position of General-in-Cluef at Washington has boon earn&stly watched by tlu country. There has been no hesitation in his niind as to what he should do, and no pattering with expediency or injustice. To this patriotic man, so eminent iu his profession, so steady and constant in his aims, and so earnest and courageous in pursuit of the right, tho Republican party has tendered the nomination for the lirst office within its control. It 15 wisely and gloriously done.—

It will settle the fate of this country for tour years, and probably for eight.

Indeed everywhere, with exceptional localities, the promise is good fbr a large crop. In sections where damage has occurred it is ^confined chiefly to the broadcast sowing.

Both tliese gentlemen are strong temperance men, and there, too, in that debating club they riveted their temperance principles by frequently discussing the subject of intemperance in its horrid effects upon individuals and upon society.

Antl-Pendletonlan.

Th6 following was introduced in the Massachusetts Democratic Convention r/*»••? last week:

Resolved, That the Democracy of Mas sachusetts, feeling the fullest confidence in the ability, integrity, and statesmanship of George H. Pendleton, of Ohio, and believing that a larger number of votes can be concentrated upon him than any other man in the party, we therefore propose, him as our next choice for President of the United States.

The resolution was received with hisses and immediately laid upon the table by an almost unanimous vote. This will not however, lessen

PENDLETON'S

chancos for

the nomination, as Massachusetts is so thoroughly Republican that the Democrats can justly insist that delegates from that State have no rights the convention is bound to respect.

Au Interesting Decision. From a Massachusetts paper we gather the following particulars of a case recent ly decided by the Supremo Court of that State: A Mr. KASTON, of Boston, in November, I860, left his pocket-book, containing valuable papers, on the desk in the Merchants' Bank, where it was found by a boy named

Kincaid,

who made sev

eral ineflectual attempts to find the owner In the meantime Mr.

EABTON

KINCAID'b

had offered

by advertisements, a reward ot $UtO to the finder, upon his returning the book and conteuts This advertisement coming to

notice, he returned the pocket-

book and duimed the reward, which

Ton

Eab-

refusing to pay, suit was brought to recover it, and the Supreme Court now gives judgment for the defendant, because the plaintiff, by discovering the pocketbook where it had been left voluntarily by the owner, in a bankinghouse, did not become the finder, and was not entitled to the reward according to the terms of .the advertisement.

and that all the hosts they can muster in opposition to the Peerless Hero will find themselves, on some fine evening of November next, in the same situation as were their brethren of the Lost Cause when the stars and bars went down at Donelson 'and Vicksburg or sank in endless intamy at Appomattox. "Pale" on, most valorous neighbor, and justify your "paling" by an innumerable array of Democratic precedents. ''Paling" thus early in the campaign shows a great deal of that "discretion" which, in this instance, is certainly "the better part of valor."

Journal Afflicted again.

The Journal is greatly afflicted about the Chicago Platform and especially troubled over that portion of the document which relates to national finances, As yet our neighbor has made no proposition and has raised no issue sufficiently direct and tangible for discussion. It deals in very vague but not remarkably "glittering" generalities. We are ready to meet any issue that the Journal may wish to make as to the soundness of the financial principles enunciated at Chicago, and are more than willing to corns pare the financial theory there enunciated with the plan proposed by the organ of the Democracy of the north-west. The third section of the Chicago platform reads thus:

We denounce all forma of repudiation as a national crime and our national honor requires tho payment of the public ndebtedness in the utmost good faith to all creditors at home and abroad, not only according to the letter but the spirit of the laws under which it was contracted.

As a preliminary to the discussion of this subject we ask the Journal to state, clearly and without attempted evasion, its objections to this section. Does the Journal favor repudiation Does it hold that the national honor does not "require the payment of the public indebtedness in the utmost good (aith to all creditor* at home and abroad,not only according to the letter but the spirit of the laws un der which it was contracted?

Direct answers to these pertinent interrogatories will furnish a fair starting point for discussion. May we have such answers

The

Fiom ths New York. World, Ma 21,1868.1 It was possible for Grant, after his failure "to fight it out on one line" in his advanee of 1864 upon Richmond, to lavish the lives of thousands of American soldiers and to expend hundreds of thousands of dollars of the tion's treasure upon a new campaign, and so finally wear and worry down the strength of the rebellion which had already been mortally wounded by Meade at Gettysburg.

LTETTTESAKT-OBirKRAL GRANT.

From the New Tork World, April 11,1866.1 Gen. Grant's history should teach us to

discriminate better than wt^6.m are apt to do between glitter «nd folid work. Our proneness to run tfter demagogues and spouters may find a wholesome corrective in the study of such a character as his. The qualities by which great things aro accomplished are here seen to have no necessary connection with showy and superficial accomplishments. When the mass of men look upon sash a character, they may learn a truer respect for themselves and each other they are taught by it that high qualities and great abilities are consistent with the simplicity of taste, contempt for parade, and plainness of manners with which direct and earnest men have a strong natural sympathy. Ulysses Grant, the tanner, Ulysses Grant, the unsuccessful applicant for the post of City Surveyor ol St. Louis,

and

victory are synonymous and their souls are oppressed with the deep and abiding conviction that, fight out the campaign as best they may, their standard bearer will have to follow the example of

Ulysses Grant, the driver into that city of his two-borse team with aload of wood to sell, had within him every manly quality which will cause tho name of Lieuten-ant-General Grant to live forever in history. His career is a lesson in practical democracy it is a quiet satire on the dandyism, the puppyism, and the shallow affectation of our fashionable exquisites as well as upon the swagger of our plausible, glib-tongued demagogues. Not by any means that great qualities are inconsistent with cultivated manners and a fluent elocution but that such superficial accom plishments are no measure of Worth or ability.

Gen. Grants ast brilliant campaign sets the final seal upon his reputation It stamps him as the superior of bis able antagonist as well as of all the comman» ders who have served, with or under bim in the great campaigns of the last year It is not secesary to "sacrifice any part of their well-earned reputations to his. Sherman and Sheridan deserve all that has over been said in their praise but there has never been a time, since Grant was made Lieutenant General, when anybody but Sherman, on our side, could have been classed with him. Since Sherman's bold march through Georgia, and bis capture of Savannah and Charleston, there have been many who, in their strong admiration of his great achievements, inclined to rank him as the greater general of tho two. That judgement, we take it, ia now reversed by the court of final appoal not by dwarfing tho reputation of Sherman, which suffers no just abatement but by the expansion into grander proportions if that of Grant.

Grant stands perminent among all the generals wbo have let our armies in the late war, in that he has exhibited the utmost strength of will of which the highest type of manhood is capable. The defenses of Vicksburg and the defense of Richmond were both deemed impregnable, and were defended with a proportionable confidence aud obstinacy bat they both yield ed, at last, to Grant's matchless persistence and unequaled strategy. And, in both cases, he not only took the long-contoated positions, but compelled the surrender of the whole force defending them. Nothing could be more clean and complete, even in imagination than Gen. Grant's masterly execution. He did not merely, in each case, acquire a position which was the key of a wide theater of operations he did not merely beat or disable the opposing force he left no fragment of it in existence except prisoners of war subject to his disposal.

If anybody is so obtuse or so wrongbeaded as to see nothing great in General Grant beyond his marvelous tenacity of will, let that doubter explain, if he can, how it has happened that, since Grant rose to high command, this quality has always been exerted in conspicuous energy precisely at the point on which everything iu his whole sphere of operations hinged. There has been no display of great quali. ties on small occasions no expenditure of herculean effort to accomplish objects not of the first magnitude. It is only a very clear-sighted and a very comprehensive mind that could always thus hare laid tD6 wliwlo emphasis of on indomita bio soul so precisely on the emphatic place. How, if be be not a General of the first order of intellect, as well as of the moit heroic determination, does it happen that in assigning great and brilliant parts to his subordinate commanders, he has never, when the results of his strategy were fully unfolded, appeared in the picture except as the central figure However it may seem during the progress of one of his great combined campaigns, it always turns out at last, when it reaches that completeness and finish in which he contrives to have his campaigns end, that we see him standing in the foreground, and that the grouping is always such that the glory of the other generals instead of eclipsing his own gives it additional luster.

It is this sureness of judgment which sees precisely where lies the turning point which sees precisely what are the objects that justify the utmost stretch of persistencej it is this ability to take in the whole field of view in just perspective and due subordination of parts, that is the mark of a superior mind. Gen. Grant has taken out of the hands of all critics the question whether it belongs to him. He has won his greatest triumph over the most skillful and accomplished General on the other side over a General who failed him long enough to prove his great mastery of the art of war and the completeness of whose defeat is a testimony to Grant's genius such as a victory over any other General of the Confederacy, or even an earlier victory over Lee himself, could not have given. Apply to Gen. Grant what test you will measure him by the magnitude of the obstacles he has surmounted, by the value of the positions he has gained, by the fame of the antagonist over whom he has triumphed, by the achievements of his most illustrious co-workers, by the sureness with which he directs his indomitable energy to the vital point which is the key of a vast field ot operations, or by that supreme test of consummate ability, the absolute completeness of his results, and he vindicates his claim to stand next after Napoleon and Wellington, among the great soldiers of this zentury, if not on a level with the latter.

Who may be suffering from the effects of youthful follies or indiscretions will do well to avail themselves of this, the greateat boon ever laid at tne altar of suffering humanity. Dr. S. will guarantee to forfeit one hundred dollars for every case of seminal weakness, or private disease of any kind or character which he undertakes and fails to cure. He would therefore say to the unfortunate sufferers who may read this notice, that you are treading upon dangerous ground when you longer delay in seeking the proper remedy for your complaint you may be in the first stage remember you are approaching the last if you are bordering upon the last, anc suffering some or all its ill effects, remember if you obstinately persist in procrastination, the time must come when the most skillful physician can render you no assistance, when the door of hope will be closed against you when no angel of mercy can bring yen relief. Ia no case has the Doctor failed of success. Then let not despair work itself upon your imagi. nation, but avail yourself of the beneficial results of his treatment before your case is beyond the reach of medical skill, or before grim death hurries you to aprema tare grave.
