. The work of changing the gauge
from six to four feet nine inches on
the Uhio & Mississippi It. H., com
menced on last Monday at 8 a. in.,
and was completed throughout the
entire line, a distance of 340 miles, in
seven hours. This change is worthy
of ranking among the great railroad
feats of the country. On the whole
lino there was a force of 2,720 men
employed. Of these 3o0 were from
other roads centering at St. Louis,
and SO were from Springfield and the
fcouthern part of Illinois. Each man
received twenty-live cents for each
Hour he worked on the road. The
actual work of changing the gauge,
without including reduction of rolling
Ktockto suit it or purchases of narrow
gauge stock, amounts to about $25,000.

"Your paper pleases mo. The first

with you. But upon one subject you
are non-committal, viz. tho Presiden
cy. "Will you please ventilate your
views on this subject. Are you in fa
vor of the re-nomination of Grant?
If so, what argument have you to ad
van coin favor of duplicating Presi
dential terras? Fkiend.
When a man (for from theehirogra
phy we feel assured it is not a wo
man), confesses having fallen in love
with us, we break over established
usages, and take cognizance of anony
mous productions.
Gen. Grant is not our first choice
for the Presidency. Had we the
nominating power we would present
Schuyler Colfax as tho Republican
nominee. But that gentleman has
peremptorily declined such honor, and
Grant is our second choice.
Let us give a few reasons which ac
tuate us in our choice.
One point of attack considered as
J vulnerable by Grant's opponents, is his
San Domingo policy. A Democratic
paper before us observes- the fact that
the President's position in the regard
and love of his country has evidently
riben since his loyal deference to the
general will in the matter of San Do
mingo, and adds, with something
like a sneer, that nothing could show
more clearly how easily Presidential
reputations are won. We ask no bet
ter illustration than this sneer gives
us of the loyalty of the President to
the Constitntion of his country, and
the distinction between that Consti
tution and the written traditions by
which most countries are governed
It gave to the President the duty of
carrying out the will of the country
as ascertained in certain fixed meth
ods. It did not give him, either as
privilege or duty, the power of carrying
out his own will if it happened to
traverse that of his country thus as
certained. Nobody pretends that
tho will of th&- country, or Gen.
Grant's undivided will, would exhibit
the absolute right on any subject.
But the Constitution supposes that if
the will of the country bo carried out
in the direction indicated by cer
tain persons chosen to represent it
such an amount of good understand
ing and a certainty of internal peace,
and such strength of movement will
be secured as are more than sufficient
to repay us for the occasional losses
which we may sutler from missing
that absolute or theoretical right way
at which the ideal virtuous despot is
supposed to aim.
The country has had no lack of
Presidents, who, with much talk
about deference to tho will of the
country, really cared much nioreforo
coterie of oliice holders or contractors,
or of the managers of a particular par
ty. It Is true that when Gen. Grant,
who lias achieved military renown
the woild over, compared with which
Gen. Jackson's fame is as nothing,
who established him in power, a Pres
ident is more likely Ip- aspire- to the
rendering mch satisfaction when the
power of such endorsement lies with
the people, than when certain retire
ment follows upon the close of hisfirst

he was not going forward in his ad

found satisfaction among men who
think of the basis of our civil order.
His reputation and his place in the
regard and esteem of the American
people were secured as they had been
secured by no victory In arms. In
one of his perorations Mr. Sumner
reminded the President that he who
ruled his own spirit is greater than
he who captures a city. The Presi
dent has shown that he did not need
that lesson.
"When we chose Gen. Grant for
our President he promised that he
would fulfil the duties of the office
as well as he could. To our party as
a party, ho made no special pledge
beyond what was implied in his ac
ceptance of the nomination. "We had

After the base treachery of Andv

not so well assured of its position be
fore the country that it could elect
any man it brought forward; nor
was it in a condition- to pin him
down with terms of promises of ad
ministration, had he been a man to
give pledges to anybody who asked
for them.
The party took him up because it
UU.U. cuiuiueuco in mm. no was in
no way pledged to its organized meth
ods. It was understood he had not
acted with it before' the war. It
chose him with its eyes open, and his
administration began. He chose his
Cabinet from among business men
rather than politicians, wisely or un
wisely in some cases, to cur view,
unwisely but he has been the great
est sufferer from unwise choice. He
had to bear the obloquy which others
ought to have borne, and shouldered
blunders which never should have
been made. But all the blunders and
au tne obloquy have never made the
President waver in his loyalty to the
great party which chose him, nor to
the will of the country he undertook
to servo. There is no savor"bY. Johu
sonism or Tylerism in his proceed
ings. He represents, at this mo
ment, the mo$i advanced Republicans,
by urging tho policy of nation
ality and the policy of equal rights,
which are the two great "cardinal
Lprinciplcs for which the party exists
at all.
But we cannot go further to-day.
Suffice it to say, the party hasgaiued
more at his hands than it had any rea
son to expect, and we doubt if nnj' one
can be feund who will better carry out
the true policy of tho great Republi
can party than our gallant General
and honored President, Ulysses S.
Grant. His nomination is contin
gent only on his living another year,
and his election only tn his living
until November, 1872.

The Omaha 'Tribune and Republi
can evidently does not like Senator
Harlan, as it has repeatedly, since
Rev. Newman denounced as a canard
the letter signed by his name, urging
the rc-eleciion of Senator Harlan on
religious grounds re-iterated the
charge of writing such letter, while
silent as to denial. Such a spirit ofl
vindictiveness would be eminently
characteristic in a Democratic iourr.al.
but it is entirely out of place in the
columnsof a Republican paper. If
it is right to "give the devil his due,"
why not to render justice to Rev.
Newman ?

Jeff. Davis is out in a card denying
his connection with the contretemps
on the sleeping car, published In our

ductor and porter and the regular

truth of the matter and Jell's guilt
and gives the name of the woman
and what is more, bribes have been
offered them to "dry up" on the sub
ject, failing in which they havo been
discharged. The facts are more than
circumstantial they are positive aud
damning. Yet this old traitor, black
guard and hoary-headed libertine,
the Omaha Herald denominates "one

The Chicago Republican expresses
fear that Senator John A. Logan did
not experience a change of heart
when he joined the Methodist Church,
else he has fallen from grace. The
other day John was asked how
Grant would run iu 1S72. "Run," said
he, "ho'd run like hell with a tin ket
tle tied to his tail." Tho Republican
says that a true Methodist would havo
replied, "Grant would fly like a
frightened canine with a tin utensil
attached to his caudal appendage."
We suppose Logan was in too much
of a hury to pick hiswords.
A man named Jacob Touenars died
at Kansas City, Mo., on the loth intt.,
who was said to bo 134 years old. In

ous to see a locomotive, and'when the
first one entered Kansas City he went
with a lady friend to see it. After
closely scrutinizing it, and seeing it
depart bearing behind it a heavy train
of cars, he expressed much satisfac
tion, and remarked, "Now I can tell
God I havo seen a railroad."
From the Cincinnati Commercial.
That the Presidential chair is no
bed of roses has been proved by the
experience of all American Presidents,
from the first to the last. The oppo
sition to Washington's administra
tion, which was early developed, and
which finally reached a degree of ran
cor almost incredible to the sentiment
of modern times, was strongest in his
second term. Although closely con
nected with the management of our
foreign relations, and mixed up with
the Anglophobia of the Republicans,
and the anti-Gallicau prejudice of the
Federalists (Washington being re
garded as the friend of England at
the expense of France) it extended to
tho President's private habits, choice
of officers, style of address, manage
ment of salary, excursions from the
seat of government, &c.
In the Philadelphia General Adver
tiser of February 21, 1794, .the day bo-
fore Washington's Birthday), the
Governor of Pennsylvania having re
quested tho militia to turn out on the
occasion, in honor of tho President,
there appeared the following remon
strance: "Does it make a part of our militia
system that the militia shall, on a
certain day, bo converted into a prcc
toria7i band, to oiler up incense of ad
ulation to the first servant of the peo
ple ?It is to be hoped that tho mili
tia will spurn at tho call to form a
liveried band for any man upon earth,
how great soever his merits may have
been."
The same paper, In au editorial par
agraph on the 22d of February, sneers
at the meeting of the Cincinnati "to
congratulate the President on his be
ing a year older," aud adds : "It cer
tainly corresponds with the views of
the self-created noblemen of our. coun
try to keep up a full measure of con
sequence." A week later it censured
the managers of the Philadelphia
Theatro for causing the "President's
March" to be played, a "mimicry of
British customs."
WThen Chief Justice Jay was nom
inated by Washington, as envoy to
Great Britain to negotiate a treaty,
the President was denounced as hav
ing nullified the Constitution. "What
becomes of tho constitutional check
on the Executive by impeachment,"
wrote Mr Bache, in the Philadelphia
Advertiser, "if that Executive can re
move a Chief Justice, one of the offi
cers essential to that check, three
thousand miles beyond seas?"
The same editor thus animadverted
upon Washington's method of enter
ing tho theatro :
"Who would, believe it, tho Presi
dent of the United States condescends
to be the humble- imitator of a Brit
ish crown-bearer, even in his man
ner of entering the theatre. He does
not use, in common with his fellow
citizens, tho front passago to the box
es, but is introduced through a back
door, and lighted to his seat along the
scones by attendants stationed for the
express purpose."
The Democratic Society of Penn
sylvania in May, 1794, passed resolu
tions denouncing the appointment of
Chief Justice Jay by Washington as
"contrary to the spirit and meaning
of tho Constitution ; as it unites in
the same person judicial and legisla
tive functions, tends to make him de
pendent upon the President, and de
stroys the check by impeachment up
on the Executive."
, The compensation received by
Washington, as President, though
fixed at $25,000 by the first Congre.-s,
did not pass without much opposi
tion, and became for years after a
fruitful theme of objection and at
tack by a portion of the press. Mr.
Bache, of the Philadelphia Advertis
er, f which afterwards became the Au
rora,) thus censured the extravagance
of salaries :
"The attention of the public has
been called to the subject of high sal
aries; most of them as Uiey now
stand are certainly enormous, and
public offices have become what they
never should be in a Republic, planus
of profit. Tho servants of tho peo
ple do not receive wages that they
may be able to entertain one another
with splendor, but merely to support
themselves and families while in pub
lic service. Public salaries should be
such as to support the put lie officers
as well and no belter than the mid
dling class of their constituents."
The salary of tho President is else
where complained of as "five times
larger than that of any cilizon of the
Union." Aud Mr. J. T. Callender,
writing in John Adams' time, to op
pose tho building of a President's
house, on the ground that (he Presi
dent could better aflbrd to pay his
rent than any other public officer, us
ed this language respecting Washing
ton's drawing his salary irqm u;e
Treasury prematurely :
"Some years ago the lato President
was attacked in the newspapers for
constantly uplifting his salary before
it became due. Mr. Hamilton im
mediately printed a reply that filled
nine columns of the Philadelphia
Qazeltc. Even the very worst which
could bo alleged of Mr. Washington
amounted only to this practice being
self upon the world, and wascredited
for a while, by enemies a3 by friends,
for prudence, moderation and impar
tiality. It is laughable to hear Mr.
Washington talk of his sympathetic
feelii-gs, who has always been re
marked, even Among his friends, for
not having any."
The fame of Washington asa mili
tary leader and the "savior of his
country" is thus scornfully disposed
01 by 'l nomas Pame:
L "As to the pompo'us enconiums he
so liberally pays to himself on the
score of the American revolution, the
reality of them may be questioned,
and since he has forced them so much
into notice it is fair to examine his
pretentions.
"A stranger might bo led to suppose,
from tho egotism with which Mr.
Washington speaks, that himself, and
himself onjy, had generated, con
ducted, completed and established
the Revolution in fine, that it was
all his own doing.
ikIn the first place, as to the politi
cal part, he had no share in it: and,
therefore, tho whole of that is out of
the question with respect to- him.
There remains, then, only the milita
ry part, and it would have been pru
dent in Mr. Washington not to have
awakened inquiry upon that subject.
Fame then was cheap ; he enjoyed it
cheaply ; no one was disposed to take
away the laurels that, whether they
were acquired or not, had been given.
"Mr. Washington had the nomin
al rank of Commander-in-Chief, but
he was not so in fact. Ho had in re
alitv only a separate command. He
had no control over or direction of
tlfo army to tho northwest, under
Gates, that captured Burgoyne; nor
of that of the south, under Green,
that recovered the Southern States.
The noihiual rank, however, of Commander-in-Chief
served to throw up
on him the luster of those actions,
and to make him appear as tho soul
aud centre of all military operations
in America.
"He commenced his command in
June, 1775, during the time the Mass
achusetts army lay before Boston, and
after the affair of Bunker Hill. The
commencement of his command was
the commencement of inactivity.
Nothing Avas afterward done, or at
tempted to be done, dnriug the nine
months he remained before Boston.
If we may judge from the resistance
made at Concord, and afterward at
Hunker Hill, there Was a spirit of
enterprise at that time, which the
presence of Mr. Washington chilled
into ccld defense. By the advantage
of a good exterior, he attracts respect,
which his habitual silence tencfe to
preserve: but he has not the talent of
inspiring ardor in an army.
"No wonder that we sc"e so much
pusillanimity in the President when
we see so little enterprise in the Gen
eral. "The campaign of 1777 became fa
mous, not by nnything on the part of
Generla AVashington, nut by the cap
ture of General Burgoyc and the army

army at Saratoga, under General
Gates. So totally distinct and un-
connected were the two armies of
Washington and Gates, nnd so inde
pendent was the latter of the author'
ity of the nominal Commander-in-Chief,
that the two Generals did not
so much as correspond, and it was on
ly by a letter of General (since Gov
ernor) Clinton that General Wash
ington was informed of that event.
"The capture of Burgoyne gave an
eclat in Europe to the American
arms, and facilitated the alliance witis
France. The eclat, however, was not
kept up by anything on tho part of
General Washington. The Fame un
fortunate languor that marked If is
entrance into the field continued al
ways. Discontents began to prevail
strongly against him, and a party wa.v
formed in Congress, whilst fitting at
lorktown in Pennsylvania, tor re
moving him from the command of
the army
"Nothing was done in the cam
paigns of 1773, 1779, 17S0, in the part

A rather young man, whoso fea

lately entered a jewelry store in New
York, and gazing earnestly Into the
show case, remarked :
"You've got a heap of mighty pret
ty breastpins thar, mister. What
mount you ask. for 'era?"
"What sort of a pin would you like
to look at? asked the merchant.
"Well, Tdunno," said the visitor,
poin ting to a plain Masonic pin, (the
compass and square) "how much is
thatyero?"
"Five dollars, sir," was the reply.
"It's a very fine pin."
"You haven't any with a little gold
hand-saw laid across :it, hev you ?"
interrupted the wouldbe purchaser.
"I believe not, sir,"., said the mer
chant. "Wish yer had r it would suit mo

"Seven dollars," producing a com

We direct especial attention to the
articlo in to-day's Ativeiitiseb, head
ed "Tho Troubles of the First Piesi
dent." Its perusal will open the eyes
of the ordinary reader to the fact that
although education has led us to hold
Washington iu such high reverence
as to entertain tho belief that during
tho Revolution and the days of his of
ficial life, he was first in the hearts of
ail his countrymen, even ho was no
exception to tho general rule. On
the contrary his maligners were nu
merous and unrelenting, following
him, even to the grave, with maledic
tion and anathemas. There is n pe
culiar similarity in the charges pre
ferred against Washington, and those
presented against Grant the princi
pal difference being in tho character
of the prosecuting witnesses those
against Washington being men of
character, whilo those against Grant
are men bankrupt in character.
In the last number of the Nemaha
Valley Journal, we find tho follow
ing deserved complimc.nl :
While in Brownville a few days
since, we called at the new State Bank
and had a sociable talk with Mr. Ea
ton, the Cashier, and a heavy stock
holder in the concern. Wo Jind the
business affairs of the institution in
the hands of the most responsible men
of Brownville, and everything about
the house looking business like.

In his Mobile speech Jeff Davis de
clared he would not make a "depart
ure," neither would he "accept" any
thing. On the sleeping car the other
night ho "departed" from his own

berth of a lady, (?)Mrs. Bo wok by

The Omaha Herald of Tuesday,
denominated Jeff. Davis. a3 "one of
the purest men living." We doubt
not tho Herald estimates the devil as
"very much of a gentleman."
The people of Omaha have almost
unanimously elected to issue $1D0,000
in bonds for the completion of their
high school buildings.

irregular, improper, aud super-emi-nently
ridiculous from a man who
pretended to do the business of this
country for his mere household ex
penses." Not the least powerful among the
assailants of Washington in his sec
ond term was Thomas Paine, who
had been neglected by the Adminis
tration when in an IStiropean dun
geon. In 1706 Paine published a re
markable pamphlet at Philadelphia,
then tho seat of government, entitled
"A, Letter to George Washington,
President of tho United States of
xmrica, on Atlairs Public aud Pri
vate." Wo cite a few passages :
"Tho part I acted hi the American
revolution' is well known. I shall not
hero repeat it. I know, also, that
had it not been for the aid received
from Franco in men, money and
ships, your cold and unmilitarv eon-
duct (as I shall show in the course of
this letter) would, in ail probability.
have lost America at least she would
not havo been the independent na
tion she now is. You slept awavyour
time in the field till the finances of
the country were completely exhaust
ed, and you have but little share in
the glory of the final event. It is
time, sir, to speak the undisguised
language of historical truth.
"Elevated to the chair of the Pres
idency, you assumed tho merit of ev
erything to yourself, and the natural
ingratitude of your constitution be
gan to appear. You commenced your
Presidential career by encouraging
anu swallowing tlie grossest adulation
and you traveled America from one
end to the other to put yourself in the
way of receiving it." You have as
many addresses in your chest a3
James II. As to what were your
views for if you are not great enough
to have ambition, vou nro lifMn
enough to havo vanity thov mnnnk
be directly inferred from expressions
of your own; but tho partisans of
your politics have divulged tho se
cret." In another passage, after declaring
that Washington's "prudence was a
substitute for principle, nearly allied
luuypocnsy,--ana indulging in the
"In i ..i..i 1
HUUUUlCUb
as to you, sir, treacherous in private
triendsnip, and a iiypocrlte In public
life, the world will be puzzled to de
cide whether you are an apostato or
an impostor; whether you havo aban
doned good principles, or whether you
never had 11113'."
Another of Washington's detract
ors was Tom Callender, an English
man, who wielded a caustic pen, aud
whose contributions to tha Aurora,
to Frcnaii'8 Journal, and especially
to the pamphlet literature of the day,
were something enormous in extent.
He especially delighted in depreciat
ing the intellectual ability of Wash
ington, and lost no occasion of twit
ting him with tho fact that Alexan
der Hamilton was his source of sup
ply for both the ideas and the lan
guage of his State papers. Speaking
of Hamilton, Callender wrote :
"Ho 1ms often compared his influ
ence over the President to that of the
wind upon a weathercock, or of that
of an automaton moved only by the
hand which directs it. This stvlo
w:i3 both imprudent and ungrateful.
That the pen of Mr. Hamilton has
long affected the President is a storv
current in Europe as well as in Amer
ica ; and that the speeches and letters
of General Washington are extreme!'
different from his more early produc
tions is well known."
In his "History of the United
States for 1790," Callender s:ys of
xiamiuon :
"He has often boasted of receiving
letters from President Washington
with the word private wrote on the
back of them, and a Gross drawn over
the seal. 'After opening such a par
cel,' said Hamilton, 'what do you
think were the contents? 'Dear
Hamilton : Put this into stylo for me.1

ejaculation, "In what n
light must Mr. Washington's charac
ter appear in me worm when his dec
larations and his conduct are compar
ed together," Paine thus proceeds :
"It has for some time been known
by those who kne.w him that ho has
no friendships : that he Is incapable of
forming any ; he can serve or deserta
man or a cause with ennsfffniionoi ?r,
diflerencc; and it is this cold. Jter
j maphrodite faculty that imposed it-.
The italics and capitals are the au
thor's.l
That Washington keenly felt these
attacks is apparent from numerous
expressions scattered throughout his
correspondence.
"I shall be happy, in the mean
time," he wrote to Edmund Hand
olph, "to see a cessation of the abuse
of public officers, and of almost every
measure of government, with which
some of the gazettes arc so strongly
impregnated ; and which cannot fail,
if persevered in with tho malignancy
with which they now teem, of rend
ing the Union asunder."
He frequently spoko of the libels
afloat in tho press as "the most dia
bolical attempts to destroy the best
fabric of human government," and
his last days were only sweetened bv
the anticipation of shortly being priv
ileged to lay down the thankless bur
den and give way to a les3 fortunate
successor.
