PIUE IN BALTIMORE,.,
The telegrnph' this morning tells '
sad "story of adisastrous . eonftjtgr
tion in the beaiHituW Monumental
City yesterday.l Th jdiafcatches are
very vague and unsatisfactory, and
It is only stated that the "loss of
property is immense. more than
can be estimated." There are tender
memories, which sterjirounrt thej
heart of every 'true SoiTtiiernmtm
and woman in connection with our
"lost cause," when the najruepf J5al
timore is-mentioned; ' and'the sym
pathy of all true Southerners will go
out to those of her citizens whose
fortunes have, within a few' hours'
time, been swept aiyay by the "de
vouring elements:"
Let us hope that' thejoss is not
so great as is "represented.

OVERTHROW THE REPUBLIC.
Theaiteniion : of ttlfe: Serjcaij
Press is being attracted tothe sub
ject of Grant's - nomination for a
third term. Of course the Southern
people are opposed to Grantirfm, to
Ciesarism, Centralism, and to every
other "ism" that constitutes the
leading ideas'of lite doihiifant Mrly2,
Grant's re-electiorlXdetfendihi'rtnlvl,
upon the Northern labors. It is in
teresting therefore to watch he cur-
rent of popular sentiment in the
North, as it finds expression in their
leading journal, many of which,7
both Republican, Democrat, and
Neutral, have come out hi strong
opposition to the nomination of
rant in 1876. The New York Her
ald thinks that the destiny of the
American Republic depends upon
this: with the re-election of Grant,
it thinks the Republic will die, and
the era of Caesarisni -will begin.
Other papers are 1 equally outspo
ken against such a dangerous step.
From,- Frank Leslie's Illustrated
Newspaper we clip the following
thoughtful and well written editori
al, which gives a clear insight 'into
the various aspects of this momen
tous question. We commend the
article to the attention of our rea
ders :
"Unusual attention has lately been
called to the probability of an effort
to elect General Grant to athjrd. term
of the Presidency. Had the people
really" credited the possibility evep
oi sucu an miempt, wnen it was as
serted in the cartvass of last year, he
would certainly have had a much
smaller majority. But it is the, na
ture of Americans to believe im pi ici
ly in the nermanenceof the Repub
lic, notwithstanding all the Warn
ings they have had, of which the
war was the greatest, and to treat
their military heroes as if th.ey were
saints, incapable of nty, ambitious
dream. GeneralGraht was anything
last year, that his admirers chose, to
make him a modern rCincinnatus
or a second Washington. His mili
tary career atoned for aall bis civil
errors. Mr. Greeley, on the other
hand, who bad during a- long life of
temperance,' industry and true phil
anthropy labored in'the cause Of the
people, was suddenly transformed
into their enemy, and pursued to
his grave by the meanest and cruel
est slanders of the age. - But both

army of politicians look to him as
their leader; beis the open choice
of the office holders, to whom a

of the trulliran paftyIKavnigllt:
down wun an iron smu ecij ic
bellion inj&s ranksaud .having fort
ed ottt of Us councils all who dared
to oppose his will. He is just as
strong now' for .the third term, with
the politicians, as he was last year
for the second, - but we greatly niis
take if he is not much weaker with
the people.
Those who doubt this, and have
so much confidence in Grant -that
they think he would sternly refuse a
third candidacy, and retire, like Cin
cinnatus, . to his. ? plough, or,- like
Washington, to Mount Vernon,
should ask' themselves if he has ever
refused anything. Has not bis
whole career revealed a determina
tion to srrast) nower wul bold it?
We doubt if the worst of his urede
cessors in the. Presidency, would have
signed a bill doubling bis own sala
ry, accompanied, as the Grant bill
was, witlv tbe disgraceful r, back-pay
.steal of Consness. We know that
the great men with whom 'Grant is
sometimes compared Washington,
Jefferson. Jackson and Lincom
would never have violated, as he
.jHwl thr-fmi-rii. nf the constitutional
JHatiso which forbids
the increase of
a President's sala-rv by a petty eva
sion of the letter. Nor ' has Grant
ever intimated the slightest objec
tion to a third -term, though tie is
the first President who has been ac
cused of seekinar it. He has had
and has-now the opportunity of re
moving this growing fear of the
country and vindicating his charac
ter with a-word, but that word he
evidently will not speak until he is f
compelled by public opinion that
is, 'if public 'opinion has compulsory
power any longer.
let in 6pite ot this ominous si-
ence of himself, more alarming be-
cause or tne louu aavocacy or me,
scheme by his partisans, we hesitate
o absolutely accuse Grant of a de
ign to seize the Presidency by the
aid of the patronage of the govern-
meut ana oi a great ana wen tramea
organization . But we do sivy that
ns actions and Ins policy have sub-
ected him to the suspicion that he
entertains this criminal project, and
that this is beginning to be general-
v believed by all parties, feo uni
versal is this opinion tliat in the
last two weeks even the Herald,
which has alwavs sustained him, has
declared to the country that the
danger exists, and has, in all kind
ness, called upon him to destroy it. lie
i as been warned by it that to persist
would be to earn for himself a place
n our history : with Burr and Ar
nold, as the enemy of republican in
stitutions.
This is true, but it is needless for
us to point oui in how many ways a
third term would threaten the fab
ric of American liberty. Where is

the Central House and St. "Peter's
