Tntiivkliiiilitv is a trait in human development which all admire ; but when that individuality is united with sterling integrity in the same person, the feeling of "admiration en- larges into profound respect. De cision being a necessary concomi tant of individuality, the conclusions of such an individual, if based upon rectitude, become as strong to him as proof of Holy Writ, and plant ing himself upon them, lie awaits their issue with confidence. Tn fact, the opinious of such a man are the torces which inspire his aims, and then guide and control his actions. The, too, he is positive as well as conscientious. Conclusions once formed become bedrocks iu his mental and moral constitution. Henceforward they become an essential part of his character. The knowledge that the opinions of an individual of this character often conflict with our own, docs not di minish our respect. We honor them because we believe them to be sin cere ; we respect them because con sistency marks their course. We know where to place a person of this stamp. If against us they are against us ; if tor us they can surely be relied npon. Conservatism, to them, is moral cowardice ; and a double-minded man, or time-server, or demagogue, is a disgrace to his species. Our country has furnished many noble specimens of individu ality of the type which we have en deavored to indicate. Many such are now living. They are found in all of the pursuits. In politics, we think President (.'rant is as fine a specimen as can bo named . He is a dear typo. He stands outdistinctive ly as U. S. Grant. No other name conveys a stronger idea of individ uality than that. Unassuming, terse, honest, firm. Slow, possibly, but mire. A decision once reached, no further proof is available. The matter is then forever settled. He is then ready to act. No sensible man can sincerely doubt President Grant's sincerity or his integrity those are ascliaracteristic of him as is reticence neither can be doubt his unswerving determination to carry cot bis convictions. Look at his military life. Read his messages. No parallel to the former docs the world's history furnish, and the lat ter, in tlicir comprehensive terseness and clearness, are unsurpassed. In deed, tho State papers of Gen. Grant are as clearly marked by distinctive ness as can well be conceived. Grant's chief greatness, however, consists in his fixedness of faith and corresponding fearlessness of prac tice. Unlike Gree'ey, lie is not car ried away by every wind of doc trine, lie is reliable. Strong, dis tinctive, manly, virtuous traits of character render him worthy of the trust and confidence of his fellow citizens. Governor Palmer, ot Illinois, in a speech not long since, said that Democrats must vote for Horace Greeley. "We won't!" shouted a voice from the crowd. "Very well, then," said the Governor, as a clincher, "vote for Grant." "We will," shouted the crowd, with won derful unanimity. About six out of the fifty Dem ocxatic papers in Ohio are in favor ot a straight-out Democratic ticket. ! Theodore Tilton says that Gree ley wears his clothes, like his prin ciples, without distinction of color.

This would liot secure rofoim, but de stroy the very thing intended to be improved. The ballot box is tlie place to adjust all such matters. Elect the right kind of men to of fice, and by this means the legisla tion pertinent to the end may then be secured. The people should ex. ecratc all such sentiments, as they lead to anarchy and destruction. Editor Elected.
