Not onee in a generation, rarely in a decade o f ages, are responsibilities so vast, s j ovei whelming, laid upon mortal .-boulders, as those which now rest up. on them o f Ulysses Grant. N o man, in all the annals o f human history, ever enjoyed a grander, more uwtully splendid opportunity to ¡minor, talze himself, and to accomplish that glorius feat— never achieved before— the salvation and restoration o f a Repub lic once rent by iuterueciue tends ! A hair’s bredth divides deathless Fame from eternal Infamy— a moment bridges the gu lf between Lite and Heath— ’ tis but a step from Paradise to Perditiou ! A single hour, an act, a word, may seal Grant’s fate for Glory or Despair ! I f in violation o f the whole tenor o f his past career, his education, his life, long principles and his every declara. tion, he surrenders himself to the guid ance of Butler, Sumuer and Schenck ; if be converts his great office into a mere tin kettle to the tail ot the R a il eal d»g. he h is the power to finish the ruin o f his country and to damn him self to an eternity o f execration !

Grant as the compeer o f W ashing ton— our second pater P artial! The alternative is before him— Im mortal Glory or— Undying Shame ! W hieh will he ehose? W e shall see / By no voice or vote o f ours, Ulysses Grant is the elected President o f wlmt were once the United States lie was chosen repre entative of a party that has blasted, almost beyond remedy, the freedom, the dignity, the honor, the glory o f the American name. A party which has rent into frag ments, ami trampled under foot, the Constitution, the great safeguard o f our liberties— W hich has overturned our most sac red and time-honored institutions— lias swept half the Union with fire, blood sheed and rapine— lias desolated our fields ; given our fair«st cities to the flames; destroyed our commerce ; paralyzed all our nidus tries; pillaged our treasury; and bank rupfed a Continent, with all the gold o f California, the silver of New Mexi. eo, and the copper o f Wisconsin, in its possession— A party which has overthrown all law in more than a third o f our whole eon fedration o f States ; and substituted for it, the brutal will o f irresponsible, brass mounted, military Bashw— W hich has nuul e a million noble countrymen of \\ ashington, «Jefferson, Jackson (la y and Calhoun, outcasts, aliens in the land ot their birth ; mid filled their legislative llalls, their jury* boxes, judges benches, and guberuato* rial chairs, with the vile, vermin-craw ling spawn of African cannibals— Ulysses Grant was the representative o f this party, which has torn down the noblest temple of republicanism, the grandest fabric o f patriotic devotion and genius, that ever glittered in the sunlight o f heaven— He "was the representative o f this party which has darkened ten o f the brigteststars in our federal Constitut on and plucked the la-t tail leather from the shrieking bird o f American Liber ty, Hope and Pride— And as such, we have opposed him — opposed him with all our strength of body, heart and soul, bitterly, earnestly, to the last. But now that he’s elected by five hundred thousand less than half the le gal voters ot the country, what will he do ? IIow will he conduct himself in the great office to which skillful jugglery, bayonets, disfranchisements, and a vast minority o f his feilow-citizeus have “ triumphantly elected ” him ? W ill he devote him-elf to the grand — Record and Vindicator. work o f restoring •* peace,” harmony and prosperity; or will he give himself j up to the ruthless, vengful, discord- and strife-productiog schemes o f bluth. ering, non.fighting malignants. like Phillips and Sumner at d Old W ade ? W ill he, with a firm hand, check the mad ferocious projects o f crack brained fancies, and restore, in deed and in truth, that Union for which he pro.
