Radical Candidate for the Prct-
idencr.
Ii wUi be Men bj the letter of our New
York oomepoodeot, ia to-d»y’« paper,
that be ia of opinion that General Grant
will not get the Radical nomination for
the Preeidency in the approaching elec
tion. He thinks Ur. Seward will be the
man, ate.
Now, aa intelligent and aa observant
at we know our oorreepondent to be, yet
in this matter we are equally “confident
in the belief ” that no man but Grant
atanda the ghost of a chance for the nom-
lnation of hia party. He ia almost aa
certain to be their candidate aa that to-
morrow'a son will riae; and it ia almost
jost as certain that Scmner, Seward,
Trnmbnll, Greeley and other prominent
malcontents will support him.
The idea of any one or more of these
Radical chiefs either opposing Grant or
co-operating with the Democracy is utter
ly fallacious, and time will so prove it to
be. A. H. 8.

New York, February 17, 1872,
THK QUESTION OF QUIHTI0N8.
That question, Who will be the Re
publican candidate for the Presidency of
the United States in the coming Presi
dential contest, ia not yet known, but
yonr correspondent is confident in the
belief that it will not be Gen. Grant.
There ia one man who has all the re
quisites that the said party mod approve.
He ia adroit and skillful in the use of
means to accomplish his purposes. He
is n sagacious politician, very acceptable
to tho Republicans of the Eastern States.
It was hia boast that all his knowledge in
polities “had been acquired by him from
tho Hussookasotts school. ” Was he not a
Radical of tho Radicals when he assert
ed, in tho Senate of the United Btatos,
that “tboro is a higher law than the
Constitution t ” Among other instances
of this higher law, did he not exerciso it
in touching the bell for arbitrary arrests
and imprisonments ?
He is naming himself for the Presi
dential race by keeping himself out of
the way of being interviewed, or making
speeches, or being involved in political
questioask Hia beau ideal in politics is
tho Massachusetts school. He and the
down East politicians understand eaoh
other perfectly, and will only talk or
write v.-hon “it will pay.”
W. H. Seward is hovering around in
all directions, until he can alight and
seise upon his prey. Onsznvnn.
Tlse Southern Pacific.
The Pittsburg Commercial, in ono oi
its issues of lust week, had tho following
paragraph:
It is reported that Col. T. A. Scott
and bis friends have virtually withdrawn
from tho Union Paolflo Road, although
he ia yet President of that company.
The interest that has succeeded to the
management is understood to bo the
New York Central. Tho experience of
tho last two months with tho snows of
the mountains has seriously qualified the
proapeot of the road for all tirno to come.
Meanwhile Col. Scott has keeu pushing
Ilia oorqcests in a more genial climato,
looking to a continental crossing tku
will he liable to no extraordinary obstruc
tion.
This was significant of some now
movement by tho great “Colossus of
roadt," und it bocomes all the more sig
nificant upon tho appearauoe of the fol
lowiug paragraph, taken from the Wash
iugton Chronic!* of Tuesday:
The arrangement bas been perfected
by which tho kexaa Pacifia Railway pass
er into the hards of an associatiuu of
capitalists under tho leadership of Col.
Thomas Scott, President of the Penn
sylvoma Central. Tho Texas Pacific ex
tendi from Marshall, Texas, to Hun
Diego, a distance of 2,000 miles. It is
entitled to a grant of 13,440,000 acres of
public lands from the Geueral Govern
ment, besides a grant of lands from
Texas. It is said that Col. Soott con
temp ates tue use of tho narrow gauge
iu its construction, though this will prac
tically isolate it from the other railroad
lines. By the new arrangement, the
most powerful railway oombinatiou in the
world has been completed.
It has for a long time been apparent
that Col. Scott was ooguisaut of the great
a Wantages that would accrue from the
possession of tho Southern Pacific route,
kid he baa been steadily moving in that
direction until now ho has the whole
thing in bis grasp. It is hardly proba
ble, however, that he will attempt the
experiment of a narrow gauge over a
trans continental which will ultimately
baootne the principal means of trans
porting freight and passengers between
the East and Weal.
Men's Fashions in Parting the
Hair.
A fashion writer ays; "Effeminate
men have long considered it the thing to
pert their hair in the middle, while, on
the other heed, dashing young women,
given to masculine ways, delight to ap
pear with short, early heir, parted at the
ride. In both caaea the partiea show
lliiniiaalna ia their true character. It
would be well if the lew allowed them to
change costumes with each other. By a
Paris letter it appear* that this side
parting ia to be the fashion. We doubt
it, mainly beet see snob e division oannot
to that. It is fortanste this is the case.
We do not deny that a handsome girl
adds to—can wo say her bcanty? no,
rather her style—by parting her nair at
the side, but it gives such an sir of fsst-
naas that we should not like the
The Consequences of Their
Crimes.
Sin brings its own punishment. Vil
lainy may be successful for a time, bat
its career, however brilliant, is short
lived—invariably ending in disgrace.
The world knows this; and strange, that
kowover wickedly disposed a muu may ho
naturally; however inclined one may bo
to steal and defraud lor the sake oi pres
ent gain, he has not enough cummon
tense, aud tho exercise of rcusou, to save
him from doing wrong. People ought
to do right from se(/lsh motives, if actua
ted by nothing higher. It pays best in
the long run, to be honest; and
men wbv do not square their
live upon correct principles, ought
it seems to ns, to pursue a
course of rectitude for tbe sake of pol
icy, it they would only consult their own
inlsretl; tor there is no greater truth than
that “ honesty it the best policy." It is
the best way to make money,, and the
only sure way of being able to retain it
in peace, aud enjoy tbe fruits of what is
mode.
No more forcible illustration of the
truth of what ia hero stated could be giv
en than tho history of the thieving car
pet-bag gang, who have robbed and plun
dered the South ever since the closo of
the lute war. They are all disgraced—
even in the eyes of their friends, patrons
and protectors. They are fugitives, or
in prison, or indicted for high crimes, or
felons, aud forsaken by all who ever were
their friends, except those who have par
ticipated in their plunderings; and the
sympathy of such is not. worth much.
Gen. Urant and the Congressional fac
tion are directly responsible for all tho
mischief done by these vultures, aud for
all the infamy and o^pm which justly at
tach to their iufernal conduct. The ad
ministration placed them iu power,
and has protected them with its bay
onets. With bayonets, the party
has pinned na to the earth whilo
the thugs aud brigands rifled oar
pockets. All this is done—not only
in violation of natural right and justice,
but in flagrant violation of the Constitu
tion and laws, and their oaths of office.
They have eagerly pursued their objoot-
tbat of publie plunder—as much so as a
hungry wolf would devour its prey.
But the day of reckoning is dawning,
and it will yet shed its light into all their
dork ways and vaiu tricks. Their crimes
an producing their legitimate fruits! Six
brings its own rVNismxnNT 1 and a course
of wickodness cannot long prosper!
Even Gen. Grant and hia Radical advi
ser* and faetionists who aro directly re
sponsible tor all this villainy, are shrink
ing back from its oonsequenoes.
Grant has kicked oat that miserable
plunderer, Robb, of the Savannah Cus
tom House. Ho has appointed Atkins to
succeed Robb, and Dover to succeed At
kins—both of whom aro gentlemen of
good standing and unquestioned integri
ty. He and hia advisers turned a deaf ear
to tbe appeals of Bullock aud Conley in
the late special election in this State, and
allowed the peofds to hurl them from
plaoe and power. All their strong cries
and tears and wailing calls for
further protection woro vain. It
wns cruel beyond degreo in Grant thus
to forsuko his pets, whom ho had eucour-
aged aud protected iu their crimes till
they were ruined, and then lcavo them to
their fate; but such are the consequences
of wrong doing.
This turn in tho tide of robbery aud
oppression is not duo to any virtuous in
stincts, or any desire to do right or re
turn to tho paths of roctitudo, on the
part of tho Radical faction; but solely to
the foot that the eyes of the people of
the Union are opened! Their villainies
are exposed, and can no lougor be con
cealed ; and they quail beforo tho storm
of a virtuous publio iudignatiou which
they sec arising. It is more than they
dare to faco. The people of the
North caunot aud will not indorse tho
enormities which the Radical faction lmvo
perpetrated behind the thin gauze of
tho cry of "Loyalty" and tho saving of
the Union, This scrcou was erected to
hide their crimes, but it uo lougcr an
swers that purpose. Tho exponents of
the faction are repudiating their prote
ges, and renouncing their own teachings.
They lmvo shouldered n load which
they cauuot carry, aud are throwing it
off. It is the best they cuu do; but the
stiuk of their villainies wi" remain with
them forever. Its odor oau uever be
washed out, but will stick to thorn more
olosely than tho shirt of Nessus world
without ond.
The spell is broken and relief is com
ing; but the Radical party and its leaders
ore responsible for the plunderings,thefts,
murders and other politioul outrages
which have taken place in the South.
