'We agree with the Moans Reatuna
in taping that if any one of our readers
shuttle in need of a prophet to pierce the
vista of the future, as it is to be unfolded
. in the train of •events growing out of the
tremendous political revolution of the sth
of this month, he will please apply to a
wiser man than we are. We thought we
saw some things pretty clearly at the be
ginning of the late political flood, and it
turns out that, in a measure, at least, we
did. Bat nothing is more odious than
the "I told you so," and in the time of
gloom and defeat to our political friends,
we are far from adding to the "unpleas
antness" of the situation by disagreeable
and unreasonable reminders. We have,
nevertheless, a clear right to make an ex
ception in the case of an original "depar
ture," who, in the very hour , of failure,
undertakes to break in; force by maintain
ing that the defeat is clearly due to the
fact pat we did not "depart" and play
passive" far enough. For our own part
we aro abundantly satisfied with the
,ength to which departarism and pearly

we do net choose any more of ;per in
OATS The Messowar REPUBLICAN, the
author, we believe, of these political the
ories, now declares that they broke down
in their experiment when Baltimore en
dorsed Cincinnati, and proclaimed for
Greeley on_the 9th of July. Its argu
ment is, that the Democrats- thereby
checked the liberal revolt in the Republi
can party, which, had it been left alon;,
would have spread the epidemic to the
mortal end of that party, and that when
Baltimore,said Greeley, it gave the Grant
ites the eicuse to say this is a Democratic
dodge, and the result - was an instantane
ous damper to the insurrection headed by
Scanaz, Troia= & Co. A splendid
eulogy, certainly, to the lofty patriotic
prineiples of the Republicans, who refus
ed to join their greatest leaders in saving
the country, beeause they found that
. Democrats were to ha% a hand in the
_ job. Yet to make the programme cam
- pieta the REPUBLICAN admits that the
access of the Democratic vote to the lib
eral Republican movement was an essen
tial element. It is a good old adage that
yen must catch` your hare before you
cook it. The hare in this case was some
three millions of Democrats who were
expected to Hea d b rose, until en-A time
as the liberals should say, as Wellington
did a t Waterloo, Up, men, and. at 'ern !"
But, unfortunately, the Democrats could
not be brought to see the thing in the
Itartmuc4l's light, and the result shows'
that the Democrats could not be brought
to the scratch by the whole moral weight
of their party organization,and a formal
Tarty nomination. By the REPUBLICAN'S
plan, we-think the hare would have been
even more at large, even more non comati
bus in swampo and a greater divisible fu
gitive than he is now. The game was too
fine for practical illustration ; in the cant
phrase of the day, entirely "too thin."—
The event has shown how utterly it wo'd
have failed had the matter been left free
to the individual judgment taste of • the
Democrats. Bit it had another hypothe
sis as its base 4f success, to wit: that the
Grantites were verdant enough to be fool
cd.by.this transparent disguise. Did the
radicals need the Baltimore endorsement
of Greeley to find out that Democrats in
geberal, would support the Liberal move
ment as against Grant! Why, they
charged upon the. Cincinnati movement
as Democratic in disguise, long before the
Baltimore Convention met. No, it won't
do to aceinint for the overwhelming elec
tion of Grant and his policy in that way.
The reasons lie broader and deeper than
that. The real defeat in this election is
not of Mr. Greeley; it is a defeat of Re
pnblicaa 'principles, a defeat of free gov
ertiinent, a defeat of reconciliation be
tween the States, a defeat of integrity
and responsibility in the administration
of the . Federal,Government. And on the
other hand it is the triumph of power—
the power that is constituted of money
and bayonets. The vast floating vote of
the country fell, as it always does, to the
strong side, and they Grant -men showed
that theire was the strong side by the un
sornpulonstse of the sword and the purse
of the nation. I.l,:sus too _much for the
"virtue and-intelligence" of the nation ;
and where , these are wanting all publi
cists admit that free institutions are im
possible. Liberty cannot survive public
oorruprion. Our own opinion_ is that the
election' on , he sth of .November was not
needed to strike the first of mertal blows
at the republican institutions in America.
It was done when 800,000 'dummies were
admitted to the freed om _ of the ballot
bar. We say this apart Leona the question
of color: We speak only in reference to
the - poisoning and destruction of the in
telligence and virtue, without 'which free
auffrap is a sham, a delusion and a snare.
iTo have seen , thatthe whole of this rot
' ing mass lass been wielded by one party.
and made to bow itakneeto power. And
What do those. 800,000 votes rastupon the
sth oI November represent? The will
of the" Grant party. And it iould not
ton alter4the matter in principle and
in effect, if, instead of admitting these
blind lostratnerifs of power to- suffrage,
COBVES had passed en act to allow Glut
#o start in the nico„with that number of
ballots ahead, and stuffed; in the ballot
bones • It isn't 4 - 511e4tion of color, we
say r btikof deep, etolid ignorance ead in
capacity for the duties to which they were
assigned. If these blacks bad bees gen
erally es well-informed on *the matters
'and the s Llano of the eloction
whites, there had been less reason to omit
plain; Out with rare exceptions, the ne
groes kiwi - 16st as little about the objects
and effects of their votee ritio'many oxen
or mules. Then, universal black inffrage
literally poisoned the stream ,of liberty
and , free- intelligent government at its
'fountain. The peoplelost confidence and
turned to power ie their dilemma. ' Just
to, from time immemorial in the hiatbry
of natiohi have tyrants made danger and
and anarchy in society in Order to force
the people to the protection of the one
man power. Our republic lifer traveled
on this road, and we hare before us not
republic or cossack, but empire or com
mand. The rights bf the people in their
local organizations have gone down. Will
the nabobs of the country, the individual
millionaires and the great companies of
associated wealth fare any better than the
people have in their struggle, should they
seek permanent protection under an im
perial sceptre against a people outraged
in all their of civil liberty? We
are not a little curious to know what our
late candidate for the. Presidency—who
bore himself so nobly and won laurels so
bright—thinks of universal negro Jeff
rage, since he has inspected it more close
ly. On his conscience and his experience
does be now believe that one out of an
hundred of these people are fit and prof
itable suffragans in a republic. We are
aware that Mn. GB/SELBY might 'newer
negatively, and still plead over that ,in
time they will grow up to fitness. Very
well, then, why was not this time waited
for? In the -meantime, Ma. GREELEY
must see that their votes are cast against
that integrity, purification, peace, and re
conciliation sibich he has been so gallant
ly fighting for. The truth, at last is, the
blacks were given the ballot to sustain
the radical party—to be its slaves—just
what they are.
TEE INTER ENT OF GENERAL
nEADE.
TO-DAY the earth receives all that was
mortal of one whom the whole people
honor, fur he was no partisan, but a patri
ot soldier, who loved and served his coun
try with naAhought of self or of party.
His great achievements were never puffed
or vaunted by venal pens. His modest
reticence never claimed even his due. He
never carried favor with men in power,
hut simply put everywhere his whole soul
into his work. and left it to speak for him.
In the great crisis of the war, the messen
ger of his government arronsed him in
his tent at midnight, to tell him that now
the hope of the couniry rested ispon him.
Simply, with no vaunting, ri o•ehrinking,
he took upon himself the arduous task
before him. It was to meet with a dispir
ited army, fresh from defeats, the trium
phant march of an enemy whq told the
world by his presence in the heart of
Pennsylvania that he was ready and able
to cope with the whole power of the
North. It was to be an encounter of gi
ants and the whole world paused to look
at it. The cause of the Union trembled
in the balance. Doubt and fear perturb
ed the public mind. Those who knew
nothing of war, saw it with ill its horrors
rolling towards their fireaides. Those who
knew something of wee felt a deeper
fear as they saw the defenceless condition
of our Commonwealth. All depended
on the Army of the Potomac—nay, all
depended on George Meade, for then no
soldiers felt a confident superiority over
the battle-tried veterans of the South,
whom Hooker had lately called the "best
army on the planet." It all turned men
this—whether he who had led that army
to successive victories had now found his
matdb in the new leader who, with n 3
heralding, had taken into hie untried
hands the fate of nations. The general
public then' knew little of him, but his
soldiers knew and trusted him. The
calm. modest, sober, vigilant officer, had
won his solid fame in the front rank of
many battles, nnder the very eye of -his
comradeifin the field. They trusted him
and he approved their trust. Not again
their lives, their blood, their valor would
be wasted.
Ileadi--and Lee mancenered:with the
same object. Each aimed to receive the
attack of, the other. Each knew in his
soldier's heart, that now "Greek met
Greek." Men of the same.breed and
like mettle, well-matched in numbers and
in discipline, soldiers altogether worthy
of each other's steel, could literally have
over each other no advantage big that of
time, or place, or circumstance, to be won
by their leader's brain. -We need not re
hearie the familliar story. ,We may tell
it in a word ; in this-gigantic contest
Meade won. Let- that be his epitaph.—
And yet this battle was but an episode in
.his history, though its brilliancy &aces
the rest But in almost every battle from
the very beginning to the very last - hour
of the wir, Meade, as Brigadier or Major
General; played an important and alway
a disdingnished part. .To writable record

Tits long.talked of. "Cl.ivi Service

Um people into, .infliCting Another four
yeas of Gritaisra, is now about to come
to a Arifd "Jay_ : . commencing ,a the great
head centre,- the Praiijeuthimself. It
'mustbe the intention of the incoming
administration to increase the salaries of
the Official Brigade to such an extent
that they can dram a . fortune out of the
people without 'incurring 'the honor of
stealing it, leaving that part of admit
statesmanship to be practiced by those onz
I,y who are seeking tho "honors of of
fice."
Now that The election is over we, heat
of proposals to increase the pay of Grant's
office holders. A Washington corsespon
dent of the N. Y. nmes, Grant's leading
organ, predicts a regrading and increase
of salaries of the most important officeis
in the Civil service, as one of the firat•acts
of Congress. The salary of the President
the correspondent says-, "must be raised
between now and the 4th of next Hatch
in order to have it take effect during any
part of President Grant's second term.
It is certain that be will not ask to have
his own salary increased, nor will he ex
ercise any influence to have it increased ;
but if the proposition is made in Con
gress to raise it $50,000 per year, it will
'hardly meet with much opposition. It is
more likely that an apmopriation will be
made for a new executive mansion. It
is as old plan to have a dwelling house
for the President in a different part of the
city and use the White House as an office,
and it is now quite time for it to be car
ried oat."
The Vacant Flajor-Goneralehlp.
IT is mid that Brigadier-General 0. 0.
Howard is to be promoted to the Major
generalcy vacated by tho death Gen
eral Meade. - The incongruity of this ap
pointment is palliated by an alleged agree
ment that he is to resign• immediately.—
We have no desire now to discuss Gener
al Howard invidiously, but certainly his
promotion cannot be justified on any mil
itary grounds. If made, it must be on
political considerations only. The prin
cipal events of his military career are the
surprise of Hooker's army at Chancel
loraville, wholly attributable to General
Howard's carelessness or imbecility, and
the disasters of the first day at Gettys
burg, which are ascribable to the same
cause. This certainly does not merit re
ward and promotion. In the Freedman's
Bureau General Howard may have achiev
ed literary or political, but certainly not
military distinction. It is, we believe,
certain that he has acquired wealth. This
ought to content him, without seeking to
obtain a reward due only to merit in the
field. It will be none the less objectiona
ble if the appointment is given to him
under a private agreement that he is to
resign it. President Grant is now in po
sition to do what is right to the army
and the country PI these matters, without
subserviency to pnli inimn a —Ph iladelphia
Age.
AgoNo the journals which have not
lowered their flag an inch in comenuenee
of the late election, stands the old and
trusted organ of the Democracy of New
York, the Albany Argus. That paper
says: "The Democratic party has suf—
fered reverses in the past, and has arisen
from defeat stronger and more resolute
than before. It will be so now. Nothing
can daunt the courage of patriotic hearts,
struggling upon the ascendancy of prin
ciples upon which the republic depends.
The administration has been given anoth
er lease of power. But it is not popular
or strong. Thousands of votes have been
cast for it most reluctantly. Its apparent
strength will prove its weakness, and the
men who have been induced to give it ap
proval now will turn from it with disgust
before many month's have passed. Thou
sands Lave voted for Grant contrary to
their own convictions. They will yet join
the patriotic men who have nobly strug
gled for Reform, and in the cause of
Truth, Justice, T'eace and Liberty, will
buckle on their armor, and win success
in a righteous.cause."
Tao following is the order which Gen
eral Meade issued on the day , he took
command of the Army of the Potomac
three days before the battle of Gettys
burg:
