Ufcs. e should greatly fear to have
Sumner, or tjreoly, or many other
able and brilliant men, for ProaiJent.
The reaaon ia, that whilo they are
eultivatod, they lack certaio eleioeuU
of character, which General Grant
possesses io a very euiiueot deirreo.
1 rosideot Grant was not eloctod to
Ins office because be was deemed to be
a .a a
me oeai speaker, me best writer or
moat profound thinker, or intellectu
ally the most accomplished and culti
vated man iu the party, but bocauao
he bad those elements of alroujjth
that mads his nomination almost a
eondition of eucecas the party, aod be
cause bo had developed trails oi char
acter as a general commanding the
armies, honesty, integrity, parity of
purpoeo, resolution in war, skill in
controlling men, high, uoimpcaohed
patriotism, which convinced the peo.
nls that he bad been in military life.
Nor do we see that be bas dons any

in appointing 30,000 offieora to fill
6,030 offioos, but ws doubt if even
Nr. Sumoor could do this.
For these reasons we doubt the wis
dom of M'Clure's letter. All of bis
class seem to taks it as admitted that
Grant is an siooediogly inferior man
point that i not asssntsd tv. He
ia believed by the masses to bo pure,
froe frcm political entanglomonte, aod
specially well adapted for the position

it has been tho fault of tho system
established by law and custom for
making appointments, or the fault of
those wbo reccommsod for government

known to them personally, or who
give letters endoisiug tho character
of office-seekers without a proper
sense or. the grave responsibilities
which such a course devolves upon

can correct this abuse is much desir

garded as morally responsible for the
integrity of bis friend, and his ability

Nabrow oauui railroads are fast
golog into disrepate, and by all ap-
pearances there will be nD tnre of
that kind boilt. The Harrisburg
State Journal bas ths following sensi
ble arliclo on this subject :
" Tbero seems to bo a falling sOT ia
the favor of narrow gaego railroads.
Two yeara sgo the country was grsat
ly excittd on tho subject, but sinos
then many surveys of roads made to be
eonstrutcd on this plan have actually
been abandoned, while our great thor-
oughlare, the bout hero Paeihc, ta em
barraaaed aod delayed by the discus
sions bad to make it thro Jgbout a nar
row gauge. Ths great difficulty ia
ths way of a narrow gauge, is that bow
ever short a road is, in soy part of ths
country, the resources by which it is
surrsunded soon maks the accumula
tion of freight moro than it can ac
commodate There is not a railroad
to-day, north of Mason aod Dixou's
lias, which has capacity suffioieol t
acommodale its freight and passenger
business. Honce'it is argued tbat tbs
building of narrow gauge roads is s
loss of tho first investment, aa ths bus
iness will, tot soon aflor tbeir construc
tion, demand a wide gsags, the char
aster of froiglits being cumbersome
and heavy, and tho speed required for
competitions as fast aa on all roads.
Of coui'Ho the nur.-ow gauge cannot'
keep up with the wide or usual gauge,
atid therefore It ia, that already tbo
last experiment in railroading begins
to demonstrate its own failure. For
trade and travel, there is a certain
gauge which regulates nil wheeled
conveyances, and when that is depart
ed from it becomss dsngorous aod im
practicable; and business! moo hesi
tate to incur the waste of money re
quired for their construction. Theae
facts rendsr the narrow gauge railroad
unpopular, and will eventually drive
ibein ost of use.''
Hon. Jambs Pollock has made
