TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 9th 1879.
Tlie Next President.
Our northern exchanges of both
parties are actively engaged in dis
cussing the brobabilities as to what
men will receive tbo Presidential
nomination of their respective par-!
ties.
Anil first ns to the Republican
party. Just now the groat ques
tion with Republicans seems to he
a- to whether or not Gen. Grant
will accept the nomination. The
opponents of Grant areendeavoring
to malce it appear that he will not
accept the nomination if tendered;
on the other hand his friends assert
that if necessary to the peace and
welfare of the country he will ac
cept.
It seems to us that there can he
no doubt ns to Gen. Graut's po
sition. If he does not intend to
accept the nomination if tendered,
it would be efisy to say so
it. express terms, and that would
settle the question. Of course Gen.
Grunt cannot enter into an un
seemly scramble for the office;
nor, can he even appear to desire
n third term of office without an
otter disregard of all the maxim-
and teachings of Washington and
all the lathers of the Republic.
We take it therefore that in the
event the Republican party shall
tender him the nomination, he
will conclude that the country is
in a condition that imperatively
demands bis services and the noms
iuation will he accepted according
ly.
The next question that oaturally
arises is, can Gen Grant’s friends
succeed in getting him the nomina
tion ? We think it doubtful. There
are a great many of the be3t men
in the Republican party who will
oppose his nomination. In ad
dition to this cIbsb there is another
that will favor the man who ap
pears to have the greatest strength;
and kuowing that there are thou
sands of people opposed to any
man holding the office of Presi
dent a third term, will oppose
Gen Grant on this ground alone.
Lastly, the whole influence of the
Administration is now being used
against him, which of itself is no
small matter. We think there
fore in view of these facts,the nom-
natiou of Gen. Grant is exceed
ingly doubtful.
From Ihe lights before us we are
ofopinioD that the chances of Saer-
mihu are better than those of any
other candidate in the “field.”
Coukling has been effectually shelv
ed in consequence of bis episode
with Mrs. Sprague. As to Blaio,
we don’t think lie has had any
chance since Proctor Knott so ef
fectually disposed of him in Con
gress about two years ago. Sber-
mau has the advantage of the enor
mous influence wielded by the
President. When all theso things
uret aken into consideration, we
think the Secretary's chances de
cidedly better than that of any oth
er candidate, and the Republican
party could not put forward a
stronger or a better man. Should
Ohio go Republican at the coming
election, then that will be another
help to Sherman that we think
will well-nigh assure him the nom*
ination he seeks, and we greatly
fear that he will obtain this advan
tage.
So far as concerns the Democrat
ic parly three men arc now prom-
neiit, one of whom we think will
receive its nomination. It is hard
ly iiecessery to say that Tilden,
Thurman and Bayard aro the men
to whom we refer.
Mr. Tilden’s ohief strength Ins
in the fact that he was fairly and
legally elected President in 1876;
and, had the nomination come off
one year ago, ho would uadoubt-
)y have been nominated. Since
that time the‘'cipher dispatches,”
and Field’s charges with reference
to Mr. Tilden's alleged bad fuith in
certaio railway transactions, have
certainly lessened his chances for
the noniioHtion. Then, if New
York shall go Republican at the
next election, as seems very proba
ble we think his claims will he ef
fectually disposed of.
As to Senator Thurman, we are
ot opinion that if the Republicans
carry Ohio this Fall his chances to
he President will be M17 “slim."
Deserving Credit
BY “or.Nji.a.”
his nomination would be his
strength in the Northwest and
West; but if Ohio is lost that de
prives him of that. We have al
ready said we fear the Demoeruts
will lose that State.
If our hypotheses are correct,
then it ia clear the chances of Sen
ator Bayard are better than those
of any other candidate now before
the people. Nor do we think the
Democratic party could do a better
or a wiser thing than nominate
him. His character for hon
esty, purity, and statesmanlike
qualities is irreproachable aud hie
poiiteal record unassailable. His
nomination would command the
respect of all parties aud give to
ken of the daw q of a better day
upon the political wo, Id.
We trust therefore that Senator
Bayard will be the next D. mocrat-
c caodidate for President. VYc
believe that he, if any man can,
would lead uson to victory; an I,
that his nomination would beget
an enthusiasm among the people
that would Inar dowu ull opposi
tion before it.
We shall recur to this suhj-ct
again aud g ve iu detail our rea
sons for lavoring the nomination ot
this pure and exalted statesman.
Treasurer Renfroe.
Reports from Atlanta are very
damaging to the official character
ot Treasurer Renfroe. Indeed the
statement of the Treasurer himseli
shows that he is ignorant of a
plain provision of the Constitution,
or, has au utter disregard for its
requirements and prohibitions.
Mr. Renfroe states that the su
reties on his official bond'reqnired
as a condition of their signing the
bond with him tliut he should de
posit the money belonging to the
State in certain banks. This con
dition was agreed to by R-nfroe;
he designating certain banks him
self. In accordance with thi,
agreement,or rather in con-equecce
of it an executive order was ob
taiued authorizing the Treasurer
to deposit the State's funds iu the
banks selected.
Sometime after this had been
done the Treasurer’s securities in
formed him ti.at the hunks were
paying them interest on the mon
ey deposited in their vaults and
they proposed to give him one-
third of the interest they were re
ceiving, Renfroe says that he
sought legal advice and was in
formed that he could lawfully ac
cept the offered interest, Certain
ly the lawyer who gave this opin
ion was a mere tyro in hgal lore.
The Treasurer admits that he has
received six thousand dollars and
•‘perhaps more,’’ as his third of the
interest. It thus appears that the
State has, by this arrangement,
cost at least eighteen thousand
dollars, “perhaps more,” by rea
son of this nice little arrangement
That the Treasurer has, in this
matter violated a plain provision
of the Constitution we think no
man of common 6ense can doubt.
The section of the Constitution to
which we refer is as follows:
“The Treasurer shall not be al
lowed directly or indirectly, to re
ceive any fee, interest or reward
from any neison, bank, or corpora
tiou, tor the deposit or use in any
manner, of the public funds; and
the General Assembly shall enforce
this provision by Buitrble penal
ties.” Art. 2 Sec. 2 Par 6 Const.
Again:
“The Tieasurer shall not ho al
lowed any fee perquisite or com
pensation other than their salaries
as prescribed by |aw, except nec
essary expenses when absent from
the seat of Government on business
for the State.” Art. 2, See. 2 Par
7 Const.
Now we are not chronic grum
blers; but if the Treasurer does
not know he has violated the above
provisions, then he should be re
moved for incapacity, If he is not
ignorant of the fact he should still
bo removed from office for a palpa
ble disregard of duty.

A young man or woman, deserves
credit, only for the moral courage man
ifested at all times and under all cir
cumstances for honor, truth and truth’s
votaries, be your chief magistrate, or
lowly citizen Queen or the daughter of
an humble farmer. For this you have
the right to demand the respect of
earth. Still how very discouraging is
it aud how sad is the fact that one is
so little appreciated for these chnstian-
like efforts. Indeed, how blighting in
its tendency to meet daily and on every
hand those you love, and for whom
you entertain such respect to hear
plaudits of commendation for all else
that seems manly and praise worthy
and not one word of encouragement
even, for acts performed and
sjioken that angels witnessed perhaps
in tears of approval.
Does duty call you from pleasures of
the world to administer to the wants
of a sick, poi chance a dying man? Go
then, not with an eye to receiving
praise from fellowraen, not with a mo
tive to render yourself couspicuous nor
famous, with songs favored or prefer
red; not with intent to helping credit
to your inconsistent account of charac
ter, as previously exhibited. No do
not, but go, aud do, becuuse your own
heart tells you, humanity merits and
duty demands it. Are you called up
on to witness tho oppressive onslaught
by actions or words or in any way, by
those who fear not God nor regard
