SATUKDAY, APRIL 20, 1872.

It Cannot be Stopped.

A groat many years ago there lived on tin Jiiiti.sh Isles, a very foolish, vain, :uil self important king. He hail been Haltered by his courtiers and praised by

the

sycophants whosurrounded him,until he became so pulled up in his own importance and self-conceit, that he imagined the very elements were under his control and would obey him. To test his almighty power and convince his subjects that even the tides of the ocean were .subject to his order, he commanded that lie be carried in his chair of State, and dressed in his regal robes, down to the sea shore, and when the waves would come dashing towafds him, he would order them to stop, and they would obey. His subjects did as their king desired. He was placed on the sandy beach, and hen the great waves of the ocean came rolling in and touched the feet of his chair, he arose and commanded them to stop—stand still. But the waves, hissing and dashing, tossing their white foam in the air, would not stop, but kept advancing until they wet the great king's feet, and rising higher, swept across his body, and roaring and foaming threw their light spray in his face, and had he not been rescued by his despairing subjects, would have strangled him in another moment. This foolish, vain coxcombe of a mortal, was thus taught a lesson on the utter weakness of all human efforts, and history does not record that he ever renewed his effort to accomplish that which could not possibly succeed.

The foolishness of this king is precisely in keeping with the supreme foolishness of a little ring of politicians at Washington, who afe trying to stop the political tornado which is now setting in from the great West has already reached the pedestle upon which they stand is roaring about their ears, and, if some of their office-holding menials do not draw them aside, will surely over whelm them. They are as powerless to fiheck this onward flow of popular opinion as was the old imbecile king to stop the waves of the ocean. Their only salvation is to get out of the way pntil the ebb of the tide, and then go along with the current. They are but pigmies in the way of this onward movement by the people. They tuny create a little eddy in the rapid advance of the current, but the impetus which is behind it is all powerful, and cannot be checked.

The curly-haired and rosy-cheeked Conkliug cannot check it. The besotted and conceited Chandler cannot stop it. The corrupt and cunning Cameron can not stay it. In fact, all the office-holders in the government, led by the great present-taker himself, cannot change the direction of this mighty current in which the masses are beginning to be so earnestly enlisted. The West speaks to New England, and the Yankees are answering back to the West. The Pacific States call to the Atlantic seaboard, and the echo comes back, we, too, are getting ready. All this mighty mass will, in a few days, be given form and direction at Cincinnati, and then the concentrated momentum will be irresistible.

The Liberal Convention Movements. Iu Connecticut the movemeut is organizing with much strength, and a call similar to that of the New York Republicans will be promulgated in a day or wo. The call will be signed by ex-Sen-ator LaFayette S. Foster, Samuel Fessendi'ii, David A. Wells, Hon. Mark Howard, ex-Mayor Allen, of Hartford, J. F. Morris, Hon. David A.Clark, and a number of other equally prominent citizens from various portions of the State. A simitar call will be published in Boston, signed by Edward Atkinson, F. WT. Bird, of the celebrated Bird Club," William Elliott, George B. Blake, T. Sanborn, William Robinson Warrington, of the Springfield Republican, and others.

A Washington dispatch to the Cincinnati Qaictte saj's a large meeting of Liberal Republicans was held, on Wednesday evening, in that city. Ex-Mayor Brown presided, aud was elected one of fifteen delegates to Cincinnati, among whom are Johu D. Defrees, George Alfred Townsend, George W. McClelland, and other well known citizeus. Applications for positions on the delegation were received from leading colored citizens, some of whom are connected with the Howard University, and the President was directed to fill vacancies at his discretion.

Mr. Ripley, a well known Republic&n orator of California, has given in bis adhesion to the liberal movement, and will be present at Cincinnati with a delegation from that State.

•-gjfsfw

"It Mores Notwithstanding." We met yesterday, one of our old and substantial Republican friends, from one of the outside townships, and he accosted us thus:

approve of the course of the

GAZETTE. We are tired of Grant, and and the men who control him. We want a change, and my neighbors are all beginning to think so too. There is A., he is for the Cincinnati Convention, and so is B., and C., and D., and E. and F., and all these you

know

are first rate Re

publicans." We nodded assent to our friend, suiri told him that, excepting the office-holders, the best and most honest Republicans everywhere, were beginning to think just as he and his neighbors were thinking. That the present time is one of those periods when it becomes necessary that the people rise up in their supreme majesty, and hurl from power a corrupt ring of demagogues, who have been, for years, robbing the people of their money, and perverting the official positions of the Government to their selfish interests. The time has arrived when the people are about to hold their servants to a strict accountability, and overhaul their governmental and State affairs, and toss from power and place all peculators in office, and all leaders of corrupt rings. Woe be to that ambitious office-holder who dares to stand in the way of this mighty movement. It were better that he lose his bread and butter forever, and hereafter have to fill his belly with the husks which political swine will not eat.

(Juit.

Our versatile neighbor wiio flashes, and sparkles, and scintillates on the corner of Ohio and Sixth streets, has been amusing himself,and gratifying his wolfishness,for the last few days,in killingoff Republicans. First he slaughtered Greeley, then Halstead, then Horace White." Next be killed Sumner,

THE Louisiana Liberal Republicans have issued an address to their "Political friends throughont the Union," reciting their grievances under the administration, and announcing their adherence to the Cincinnati movement.

THE Chicago Tribune says that the crowded house which greeted Colonel Fred. Hecker in that city, and applauded his stirring address to the echo, "shows that our German citizens are firm in their belief that power and purity should go together."

Governor Palmer's Reasons for Declining a Renomination. The following letter of Governor Palmer, of Illinois, shows that he does not intend to have his position in relation to the great political movements of the day, misunderstood longer. He comes out in favor of the Liberal Republican movement, of the Cincinnati Convention, and against the renomination of Gen. Grant: Editors Carlinsvillc Democrat:

Such of my old friends as may have beard the announcement you wereauthorized to make, that I would not be a candidate before the Republican State Convention, for renomination, no doubt felt some curiosity to learn the reasons for my conduct, and I know of no medium so proper for giving them the information as the columns of the newspaper established by us in 1856, when the Republican strength in Macoupin county amounted to 800 votes, out of a voting population of nearly 4,000. The State Convention which has been called to meet at Springfield, on May 22, will be controlled by men whose leading object will be to secure the renomination and election of Gen. Grant, and they will make all the nominations of State officers subordinate to that object, and will have a right to expect that the candidate for Governor whom they select will sympathize in their favorite object, and undertake the canvass of the State to promote its success. I do not believe President Grant should be renominated by the Republican party, and will not say so, nor will I consent to canvass the State to promote his re-election, unless the candidate placed in the field against him is more objectionable. I supported Gen. Grant in 1868 with great cheerfulness.. Then the issues which followed the war were of transcendent importance. It was then necessary to provide complete guarantees for the liberty, equality and protection of all, and in comparison with the perfect accomplishment ®f these fundamental objects of Government, measures of administrative relorm were of small importance, and, in fact, from the state of the public mind, were then impossible. Now the most important, public questions are such as relate to the enforcement of the laws, the administration of public finances, provision for the care of the helpless classes, the enforcement of official honesty and responsibility, and the preservation of the liberties of the peoplo. As all who are familiar with my opinion know, I believe that all reforms and improvements in the direction indicated must begin in the State, and the first step towards success must be to win back the Government of the States the confidence and affection of the people. No man need expect reforms in the administration of the Federal Government until the people assume the government of the State and enforce honesty aud good government there. The President and Congress are too remote from the people to pay any great degree 5f attention to their wishes. They must be impressed by the action and example of the States with these views. I cannot defend or justify the opinion acted upon by Gen. Grant when he ordered tour companies ot infantry into this State to act as police, and that dictated his approval of the acts of Gen. Sheridan in raising troops by his own authority in this State, subjecting Chicago to military rule, wereby a peaceable citizen ot the State was unlawfully killed. The lawless and dangerous assumptions of authority can not be defended or apologized for by me while the obligations of an oath to sup-

{aws

ort

the Constitution and enforce the of this State rest upon me. If the

?owersJclaimed

and acted upon by the

resident in these instances exist in him the State of Illinois is but a dependency of the-Government at Washington, and the lives and liberties of the people are subject to the will of the President. To defend these acts of the President is to concede that the power he claimed exists. Such a concession by the Governor would be a crime against the people of th© State. Nor could I, if a candidate for Governor, say to the people that President Grant has

the indliti&tion and ability to enforce econertiy and reform in the Government. Nor Will I submit my judgment on these points to a convention that will be dominated by his appointees and partisans.

Schmz. Then he immolated Palmer and Dubois, and this morning announces that Cassitis M. Clay's head has been "under the sod for a long time.'' This saved the great man killer the necessity of killing Cassitis. Of course, to keep so many prominent Republicans killed, it became necessary for the demolishing editor to find a grave yard in which to bury his dead. This he has been able to do, and in the issue of his paper now before us, states that his "political grave yard" is the Cincinnati Convention. Does our good natured neighbor recollect the story of the silly fellow, who loaded his half-cracked blunderness up to the muzzle, and then let fly at duck and plover, but instead of hurting the game, the rebound was so great that it kicked the owner forever over If he has never read that pretty little story of a very foolish little fellow he had better do 30, and perhaps he might learn some wisdom from it.
