liOtiisvillo and Cincinnati. If the Philadelphia Convention had nominated Thomas A. llendricks, Ho ratio Seymour or George II. Pendleton "on a Democratic platform, it is very Fafo to say that not five per cent of the ' Jtepublican newspapers of tho country would have supported the ticket. Yet ' the inconsistency of their doing so - would not have been crreater than that of the support given by the Democratic press to Mr.- ureeley an Inconsistency - which time seems to intensify rather than to modify. The Democratic lead ers begin to see the mistake which in- ' volved their party in the ruin of the Cincinnati movement. It was an over estimate of the strength of the so-called Liberal Republican element. ".. They believed all that was told them by the disaffected and disappointed office-seekers of the .Republicans. They .took Schurzathi3 word, when he boasted " .that he carried the German vote in his breeches pocket; they believed Trum bull when he gave out that his influ- ence would turn the scale In Illinois; they Implicitly trusted Greeley when he pointed to his famished followers as men who could not be substracted from tho Republican party without defeat ing it. Nobody ever doubted that the nom inee of the Cincinnati Convention would bo elected if he should receive the promised per rentage of Republican votes and the solid support of the Dem ocratic party. But it Is manifest now that he will get Jielther. The Oncin nati Convention represented nobody but those who participated in it, and even of these several of the ablest and best men have since repudiated it. Matthews, Hoadley and Stallo, who were earnestly for it at tho start, are now earnestly against It." And the same Is true of Mr. Dienzer of this city, and many others whom we might name. Two State elections Oregon - and North Carolina-have since occurr ed, and in neither has the so-caled v Liberal Republican party been able to make the slightest showing of j-trength. On the contrary, the straight Republi- can vote has been stronger in each of these States than it was a year ago. A very small percentage of disairitlior, in cither would have sufficed for an anli Administration victory, but win : tho call was made there were none .! i pond. The urgent appeals orSu:i;;t-r, Schurznnd Banks had no'chevf- in North Carolina, except to demonstrai -that party attachments are strum !i than personal influence. The moment P these men commenced to denounce the Republican party and its leaders, that : moment their certificates of Iiepubl: canlsm were cancelled, and they were assigned to the Democratic party, where - they properly belong. But trreat as was tho mistake of over- . estimating the strength of Liberal R publlcanism, still greater was the mis take of supposing that the Democratic party could be dragooned into the united support of such a man as Horace ureeley. A slight knowledge of human nature ougnt to have convinced tho Democratic leaders that there was not a single "anti-Grant Republican" who would not vote for a straight JJenncrat as cheerfully as for a Liberal Hepubli can. There was no man at Cincinnati whose attachment to party was equal .to his hatred of Grant. That Con voli tion was com posed of malcontents, each afflicted with a personal grievance, and each ready to vote against Grant, no matter who opposed him. A straight Democratic nomination would Jiave utilized all this hostility, and kept the Democratic organization intact. There is scarcely a man in the United atatcs who, while pretending to be a Repub lican, will not vote for General Grant, who would not vote for Hendricks, Pendleton or Seymour just as readily as for Greeley, in other words, the Democratic party gained nothing what ever by the Cincinnati surrender. To ascertain accurately what it lost by that great blunder. It would be necessary to tako a census of that large, number of Democrats scattered throughout all the States who will not vote at all at the coming election, and that still larger number who will support the nominees or trie ixmisville Convention, and to add to both that large number of Demo- . cratswho, regarding their party oMiga tions as void, will .vote for Grant in preference to Greeley, as a safer and better man for the Presidential office. Here are three very large elements of loss to the Democratic party, any one 01 tnem more important than the only thing offered as compensation for them an the liberal Republican vote. ine .uouisvine convention is no longer a subjct for ridicule. Mr. Blanton Duncan may be a very poor politician, and an utterly unfit mau to give character or strength to a political movement, ljut we tnnt his worst enemy will admit that his political and social standing is at least equal to that of Mr. Grosvenor, who claims to have originated the Liberal Republican movement ana tne Cincinnati Conven tion. He is a candidate for nubile: svin- pathy and commiseration if he cannot compare notes with Grosvenor as to nil that entitles a man and his opinions to tho consideration of the public. If Grosvenor could organize a lolt h tho Republican party, Mr. Blantou Duncan must be a very inferior kind of man if he cannot organize a bolt in the Demo cratic party. The reasons for the Cin cmnati bolt are multiplied by twenty in favor of tho Louisville l)lt, and we believe the results will be In the same ratio. For every reason why a Repub lican who failed to get an oinee should not vote for Grant it will not be diffi cult to find twenty reasons why no Dem ocrat should vote for Greeley. There is no Issue of principle between Grant and the Republican party, and there is ho possible unity of principle between M 1 mm 1 . .t I .

A Famous Sword and its Guardian. The Countess of Loudoun and ML Hastings, with Lady Flora Hastings, have arrived at Kilmarnock from Eng land, on their way to Loudoun Castle.

This 8 word lias been preserved in ixuaoun uistle from tho death of ; allace until five years back, when it was removed by the late Marquis of Hastings to hi3 seat in Leicestershire.

I Wo have carried North Carolina by handsome majority. We have elected a Republican Governor. We have gain ed a member of Congress, we nave largely increased our representation in the Legislature. We have wiped out a popular Democratic majority in the last contest of nearly five thousand, and have placed a good majority on the other column. The victory is complete, substantial, significant. .' j I ' We congratulate Republicans and all the friends of good government updn this auspicious result. It is gratifying, and valuable in all its aspects in trie encouragement of success, in the stimu lus of a majority not so large as to cre ate over confidence and large enough to give cheer to the canvass, in the ludi crous confusion of the enemy, in the unmistakable proof of. the hollowness and false pretence of their whole cam paign. It secures us North Carolina in November. It points to success .in other Southern States. It imparts new vigor and spirit to our canvass through out the country. It is a good omen for the contests ofScntember and October? Our. adversaries have called it 'the forerunner of victory." .We accept and adopt their judgment. - I We have redeemed the State from the Democracy.' But the fact of carry ing it is less significant than the fact of making large gains. That fact tho fact that ice. and not thev. have made the gains is a direct and crushing blow to the Greeley Democracy. Tho Democ racy alone could not hone to succeed In the country. They entered . intoi the coalition with the expectation of enlist ing recruits, extending their ranks and converting a minority into a majority. And here, in the first . struggle since the full consummation of the alliance, instead of making gains they lose one of their own States. They cannot plead mat mey inaae na enort never . uiu they work harder. Thev cannot say the coalition did not show its best all tlicir trumn cards .were nlaved.

And the result is not merely a de feat, out a demonstration that j, both sides to this corrupt coalition have bar tered their honor and their manhood only to find themselves .weaker than before. . s The canvass in North Carolina in all its phases in the returns as well as in the fisrht is a striking commentary upon the character of the whole Qree-lev-Democratic campaign. ForaHvcek they have claimed the victory. They started with loud boasts often thousand majority. They cluner to the shadow when all rational men saw that tho substance was gone. And now,' after all this vaunting, they find that they are defeated, that they have suffered heavy losses and that all the advanta ges are with their apponents.' ' It is an exact illustration of their entire move ment.-. Their whole canvass has been one of brag and bluster, of claims that were unwarranted and assertions that were false. They build : their extrava gant assumptions of strength, as they lounded their claims to .North Caroli na, out of emptiness.. The same influ ences at work elsewhere were at work in JNortn uaronna. it tne ureeley "tide" is sweeping over the country, as our adversaries love to boast, It' could not pass around North Carolina and leave that State untouched. The fact thftt they are defeated, and that they lose there, tells the story for the Whole. country. . The Republicans of the land wjH en ter upon the great work of the cam paign with high spirit and indomitable energy, nvc nave every oneonrage- ment. The omens aro -witn us.p nut we must spare no enort anu lanor to make assurance doubly sure. From now until election we ought steadily to gain at every point. We are already in advance.

Aldan; Ar. V. Journal. One Shout, and Then To Work. North Carolina is redeemed. After waiting patiently an entire week, all doubts as to the result of tho election are dissipated. The Old North State has ranged itself in the" KepublKan line, and answers to its name in the roll call after New Hampshire, Connec ticut, Rhode Island and Oregon.

The victory is grand. , At the last election of candidates when the Repub lican and Democratic parties measured their strength, the State went Demo cratic by 4,993. Since then the regis tration has been largely increased by additions reckoned by both parties as mainly on the side of the Democracy. There has been a secession from the Republican ranks, -and - tho- Whole strength of the leaders of the so-called "Liberal" bolt was thrown into the State to Increase that secession.? The Republicans worked hard, bu they were at a disadvantage. In looking over me neia in xne last nours orthe a v tn am . struggle the Opposition exulted in the superior skill with which their cam paign had been managed, and were confident of victory because they had made their ereatest efforts in doubtful districts, whilst the Republicans work- txi hardest in counties belonmno' to them by right. But in spite of these supposed Democratic gains, of Demo cratic shrewdness, and of alleged Re publican bluudering, North Carolina wipes out its Democratic maioritv of 4,903, gives a Republican majority f from one to two thousand, elects Its entire Stato ticket, and returns three Republican Congressmen, a rain of one. The delegation will stand three Repub- ncuus 10 uvu j-feaiocrais. in 1870 two Republicans and five Democrats were elected.

A brief acquaintance, formed during hts turlough, soon rip ened inta love, and finally culminated in a happy marriage. For two years they lived together, and under their roof no guest save happiness seemed to ha.vA.benn. .admitted. -One child, the idol of its parents, was born to them.
