Our Next Governor. — The Sa
vannah Newt, Augusta Chronicle,
LaUrange lteporter and Borne Courier,
bavo all declared in favor of Hon. Charles
J. Jenkins for Governor for the next
term. These are ell ablo and judicious
papers, and Gov. Jenkins wonld make a
most ablo, dignified, incorruptible and
sagacious Executive. But we adhere to
the opinion expressed the other day, that
the position should not be pressed upon
eitbor of the few remaining statesmen
and politicians of Georgia who were for
so long a timo prominent in her history
in bottor and more prosperous times.
We are incliued to think that this is also
Gov. Jenkins' view, for the Augusta
VonetituticnalUt intimates that ho cannot
bo induood to accept the offico.
We oopy to-day a letter of Sir Henry
Clinton in reforenao to Arnold's treason
und Andre's uapture and execution—whioh
loiter, it is said, was recently published
for tho first time. It will bo found inter
esting reading, whether it was ever pub
lished bufuro or not. It affords a most
complete vindication of Gen. Washing
ton and other American offloera in their
execution of Andre as a spy, for the
letter of Sir Henry Clinton states facts
which cloarly show that he was a spy act
ing under n Hag of truce. Arnold’s blun
der in disguising him nnd sending him
on the wrong routo did not change tho
character in which Andre was serving Sir
Henry Clinton. It might have been the
cause of his detection, but he was as
much a spy whon in tho British uniform
and on the direct route between the
camps of Hir Henry aud Arnold, as when
disguised as an American and carrying
Arnold’s papers on his person. The
British Government and people were long
indignant at Andre's execution, but the
facts stated by Hir Henry Clinton in this
lettor fully justify tho American uffioers
in their oourse towards him, and at the
same timo tinge with a deeper shade, if
possible, the treason of Arnold.
BEE. eiAST'S LETTEB-AUAIN.
We publish in full the letter of Gen.
Grant to, Ik* President of the Pennsylva
nia Bepuhlican Convention, upon which
ws offend some oomments yesterday. It
is a singular production—carefully eva
sive, positive in nothing, and adroitly
suggestive of the propriety of the very
policy whieh its otUmible object ia to dis
avow. No one can read it oritioally with,
out coming to the conclusion that the de
sign of the letter ia to present Gen.
Grant in the attitude of a man willing to
aooept another nomination if his party
insists on it, but at the same time not
1 ‘seeking’’ or striving to procure it. Now,
wherein does this attitude differ from
that in whioh every Presidential aspirant
would wish to be regarded as standing ?
Is there a single one who will avow him-
eaU a can diets seeking the nomination ?—
one who will say that individual wishes
ought to be consulted in this matter t We
think not.
If Gen. Grant bad said that be was in
principle opposed to a third term, that
declaration would have been regarded as
an obstacle to his accepting it. But ho
says nothing of the kind. If he hod ex
pressed concurrence in the sentiment of
the Pennsylvania resolution to whioh he
was replying—that the limitation of the
Presidential office to two terms for one
Individual was the # wise, unwritten
lew of the republic—this would have
been a distinot rebuke to those
who wish to run him again. But
instead of saying that, he rather takes
issue with it by desisting that a limita
tion to two terms can only be effected by
an amendment ot the constitution and by
the action ot the whole people, not ot a
party. If ho had signified concurrence
in another proposition ot the Pennsyl
vania resolution—that a third term was
forbidden by the most venerable
ef examples—this would have been a
hearty protest against his own re-nomina
tion. But this again ho meets by the
oounter proposition that "until such a
constitutional amendment is adopted, the
peoplo cannot be restricted in thoir choice
by resolution, further than they are now
restricted as to age, nativity, Ao.”—nono
of which restrictions apply to General
Grant 1 Or if he had even said that ho,
like tho Pennsylvania ltepublionns, wan
unalterably opposed to a third torm,
this would have been an intimation to his
friends that he did not wish them to con
template the contingency of his re-nomi
nation. But hero again ho meets the
Pennsylvania resolution with a sqtinro
dissent, by asserting that it may happen
that to chango an Executive “becauso be
has been eight years in office will provo
unfortunate, if not disastrous.” Another
Pennsylvania resolution doclnred that tho
chsrgo of the President's enemies that
he desired a third term was "an unjust
reflection upon his patriotio character and
without foundation in fact. ” But Gen.
Grant says, in reply, that he would only
accept another nomination "if it were
tendered under such circiinistanoes ns to
make it an imperative duty;" and again,
that he “wonld not write or utter a word
to obange the will of tho peoplo in ex
pressing and having their ehoico." Ho we
see that tho letter iB rather a protest
against than a conourrenco in tbo Penn
sylvania anti-third term resolutions. Ho
nowhere expresses his concurrence in
thoso resolutions, but makes some propo
sitions and suggestions directly antagon
istic to them.
Gen Grant says that ho does not want
a third term any more than he wanted
the first. But he also gives ns clearly to
understand that he mado more "sacri
fices” in aooepting a first nomination than
he would have to make in accepting a
third—that he never "sought" a nomina
tion for any term, but was induced to
acoept two, making Baorificos in order to
do so whioh he will not havo to make
again. The inference is unavoidable,
that the same kind of pressure which
made him give up his reluctance and
endure his "sacrifices” in two previous
instanoos will again bo available when the
pinch oornos for a third time.
This letter can only bo read under-
standingly in connection with the Penn
sylvania resolution to which Gen. Grant
was replying. Hevoral wore offered evou
more plain-spoken and energetio than the
one reported by the committee and adop
ted, and they were roooivod with the
loudest cheering elioited during tho
meeting. Wo oopy tho resolution adop
ted. It will be seen that it makes an
emphatio protest againBt a third torm
as oontrary to the unwritten law of
the republic, counter to the sacred ex
amples of Washington and other Presi
dents, unwise, Ae. All of those flat-footed
denunciations of a third term Gen. Grant
qualifies or tries to negative, aud distinct
ly says that be may consider it his “im
perative duty” to aooept another term,
though he does not seek it. Here is the
Pennsylvania resolution:
I. Resolved, That we doolaro a firm,
unqualified adherenco to the unwritten
lew of the Republic, which wisely and
under the sanction of the most veuerable
of examples limits the Presidential ser
vice ot any citizen to two torms, and we,
the Republicans of Pennsylvania, iu re
cognition of this law, are unalterably op
posed to the election to the Presidency of
any person for a third term.
Tsb Dot Bof”—We havo on soveral
oeoaaions expressed doubts about the
economy of raisiug ootton at 14 cents
per pound wherewith to buy corn at
81 .lifi per bushel. But the Rome Com
mercial tells of a praotico in its neighbor
hood in which bad management is still
mere olesrly shown. It says that farmers
who last fall sold corn to the merchants
at 7fi cents per bushol aro now buying
oorn from them at $1.60 on n credit.
When they come to pay for it next fall
with ootton at 12 or 15 cents, the circuit
of improvidence will bo complete. Cheep
corn is needed to make cotton culture
profitable, and the only way to secure
cheap oorn when transportation from the
West is so high, is to raiso it at home.
—Tho principle seems pretty well set
tled that when a railroad company soils a
ticket the person purchasing can legally
elaim a seat. A person iu New York
Btato was recently ejected from a palace
oar, in which he had taken • seat, be
cause he could find none in any of the
other ears. He brought suit against tho
company, and the court awarded him
$1,000 damages.

Executive Mansion, >
Washington, D. C., May 29, 1875.)
Dear J3ir—k short time subsequent to
the Presidential election of 1872 the press,
or a portion of it, hostile to the Republic
can party, and particularly so to the ad
ministration, started the cry of **Cfe?ar>
ism” and “the third term," calling lustily
for me to define my position on the latter
subject. I believed it to be beneath the
dignity of the office which I; have been
twice called upon to fill to answer such a
question before the subjeot should be pre
sented by competent authority to make a
nomination, or by a body of such dignity
and authority as not to make a reply
A FAIB SUBJECT OF RIDICLLX.
In fact, I have been surprised that so
many sensible persons in the Republican
party should permit tbeir enemy to force
npon them and theirparty an issue which
cannot add strength to the party no
matter how met. But a body of the
dignity and party authority of a Conven
tion to make nominations for tho State
officers of the second Stale in the Union,
having considered this question, I deem
it not improper that I should now speak.
In the first place, I never sought the
office for a second nor even for a first
nomination. To tho first I was called
from a life position—one created by Con
gress expressly for me for supposed ser
vices rendered to the Republic. The
position vaeated I liked. It would have
been most agreeable to me to have re
tained it until such time as Congress
might have consented to my retirement
with tho rank and
A POBTION OF THE EMOLUMENTS
which I ho much needed, to n homo
where the balance of my days might IK)
spent in peace and the enjoyment of do
mestic quiet, relieved from tho cares
which have oppressed me so constantly
now for fourteen years. But I was made
to believe that the public good called me
to make the sacrifice. Without seeking
the office for tho second term the • nom
ination was tendered to be by a unani
mous vote of the delegates of all tho
States and Territories, selected by the
Republicans of each to represent thoir
whole nnrnhpr for tbe purposo of making
their nomination. I cannot say that I
was not pleased at this nnd at tbe
overwhelming endorsement which their
aotion received at the election
following. But it must be remembered
that all the sacrifices except that of com
fort had boon mado in accepting tho first
torm. Then, too, snoh a fire of personal
abuse and slander had been kept up for
four years, notwithstanding the conscien
tious performance of my duties to tho
best of my understanding, though I ad
mit, in tho light of subsequent events,
many times subject to fair critioism, that
an endorsement from the people who
alone govorn Rcpnblios, was a gratifica
tion that is ouly human to have apprecia
ted and enjoyed.
11EDGINO ON THE THIRD TERM.
Now, as for the third term, I do not
want it any more than I did the first. I
would not write or utter a word to chango
the will of tho peoplo in expressing and
having their choice. The question of
the number of terms allowed to any one
Executive can ouly come up fairly in the
shape of a proposition to amend the Con
stitution—a shapo in which all political
parties can participate, fixing the length
of time or number of terms for which
any one person shall be eligible for the
offico of President. Until such an amend
ment is adopted, the peoplo cannot be
restricted in their ohoioe by resolution
other than they are now restricted as to
age, nativity, eto. It may happen in the
future history, of the country that to
change an Executive because he has been
eight years in office will prove unfortu
nate, if not disastrous. Tho idea that
any man could elect himself Presi
dent, or evon reuominato himself, is pre
posterous. It is a reflection upon the
intelligence and patriotism of the people
to suppose bucIi a thing to be possible.
Any man can destroy his chances for the
offloe, but no one can foree an election or
even nomination. To recapitulate: I
am not now, nor have I over been, a can
didate for a renomination. I would not
accept a nomination if it were tendered,
unless it should come under such circum
stances as to make it
AN IMPERATIVE DUTY,
circumstances not likoly to arise. I con
gratulate the Convention over which yon
presided for tho harmony with which the
tioket v/as put in the field, nnd which I
hope may bo triumphantly elected.
With great respect,
Your obedient servant
U. S. Grant.
