'Liter ' ntill , James U. Oa- goud < fc 'Co.

It ia due to our rnndera , in anticipa tion of their publication , to gtvo them a general idea of iheao work's , and of the manner of their preparation for publication. In all , about ono hundred componi- tioua have bs-on selected for publica tion ; aoecheH in Congress , spoochf on the atunip , lc g.il nrgurnentu , occasional addreaai-3 , tunt papers contributed to ms icmes. Theuu have been carefully prepared .ind accompanied with all needful historical introductions and notes. Generally , the introductions are brief , but some of them have been expanded into short esuays of two or three pages , The chronological order of arrangement k.'ia been followed , aa doinu best justice to the history of General Garfiold's mind nnd to the his tory -of tlio country. At ( he same time the tables of contents and the very full index will enable th.i reader to find jyhnt'bo kwantB , nntU.tM etudy , 'speciarBUDJecta irrRroap. T/i'o / vVirfs1 will appear in two octavo volumes of about' . 700 pages each , utid will bo brought out in the ndiinrsblo style of the University .I'rcsa , Cambridge. Anew now portrait of General Garfield will ba found in oac'i ' volume , ono of the period. 1803 , and one of the 1880. Of the great value of Gariield's speeches , aa uppoches , wo need not gpoivl : ; but wo will call attention to the tact that they will constitute the bcflt liiatory of hia public lifo that will over appear. They arc the authentic rec ord of what ho himself said , attended by a full liiatory of the questions upon which ho spoke , and of the circum stances under which ho spoke. Thus the reader will sue at once how the particular speech fits into the history of the'times. ' Mr. Blaine recognizes the jjrcat historical value of Garfioid's flljeoch'whan ! hesaidin his eulcyy of lrobriy 27 , 1882 : "Th : o unmninlar with Gartiold'H industry , and ignorant of the delnila of his work , may , in some degree , measure them by annals of congress No one of the generation of public moa to which ho belonged 1m con- tribulod : o much that will ba valua ble for future reference.

It haa earned the confidence of the people , and it deserves it oven in the fuco of the evil things that oomo of the members have douo , for , as the world is now constituted , there will bo no parly that will curry on the government with more of good or lees of evil doing than it has done. " So far no those few sentences con tain statements of fact as to the past , they uro unquestionably correct. The republican party hus boon and done all that the veteran leader of its columns in rfome of its noblpot victories imagines of it. It did , with thn aid of many Joyal-domociats , save the nation from destruction. It haa passed many good laws , tioino o them with Klco r.id trom independent democrats. It has defeated lunny bad bills , almost a- wuya with this name help. It him been a nplundid party , nnd its actual achievements are such us vfill bo road in history with pride and gratitude by our children's children. ! No man who hus bfcn wfith it in the heat of the long bnUlo'for national existence and human freedom and equal rights can nlleot on its past without a deep aud honest Batinfuction.

These loaders will not voluntarily got out. They will atay just as long as their followers , draw- ng general comparisons , nay that it is Juttor to lot them atay than to run , ho risk of losing the elections.
