nee, } . a ii The ‘Baiy, Seanseriph NEVADA fy, CALIVORNIA. — COUNTY & CITY OFFICIAL taue. THURSDAY, JAN. 31, 1867. GENERAL GRANT As Successorn.—We are informed by telegram, on the authori‘ty of the Herald, that. a bill will be intro. “®ilided into Congress. providing that Gen: . eral Grant’ shall be seting “President.. case of the remoyal of Johnson. It may bé that this is true, but unless the memk ‘coming doth ‘the sclithibant F bbhistidciner*e we “a6 ot believe any such dill could be ‘ "passed. That Grant possesses all the qtialifications of a soldier and has proved “himself ‘a * great military genius nb one will deny. But tm his whole record we ‘fail-to find any evidence of great administrative ability, and in his expressed opinions upon the questions of the day we see tinnistakable evidence of weakness as a “'"Wé'would not detract. from the great cdglory’ which surrounds the name ofGrant. _ Hig. successes in the field will ensure him place in history beside the greatest sol'. diers of the world, and his deeds will be ¥élated ‘with pride by the American for “ages to come. But we must remember ‘#hat the qualifications of a soldier do not include the ability requisite for a statesnian. It will not do at such a critical moment as the present to hazard the weal of the nation on an experiment. . During the early part of the contest between the Executive and the Legislative departments of «government, ‘Grant, instead of asserting his position as an American citizen, preferred to evade the question,and shield . . __ himself by asserting that the President ,was his superior and he could not take isgue with him: ‘This was done at a ‘more critical time than when rebel cannon were ~ “thundering at the national capital, and all the influence of loyalty was required to thwart the .designs of ». treason servitg President, Instead of resisting the evil Grant suffered himself to be a shelter and attraction for Johtison in his raid through the West. Grant we believe is: perfectly ‘#ound, but we have no evidence that he is aheewesibinrin safe. ‘There are many men of undoubted administrative ability, sound judgment and loyalty. Let:such’a one be selected for the suceession, for the country cannot afford to experiment at so momentous a crisis.—_ \{ Bhete is another objection to Grant whi whoald not beoverlooked. He holds t highest military position in the lahd, abd . ‘though there may be no danger from him, /hisappointment would establish a preceE pnt which might give trouble in after imeg, Phe military and executive powef united in the hands, of a bad and amone man might rain the nation. It ould be far better for Congress to permit i ‘Johitson to remain ‘until the end of jhis ‘term than that he'should be succeeded by Grant. We do not believe any such proposition will ever tech the assent of Con* oan. & sn Musmrau. hawemuces HOMESTEADS FOR od) SOLDTERS AND SATLORS.— Telegrams fyom _. Washington under date of the 284 instant: say that Commissioner Wilson of the y General Land-office; will shortly issne instructions to Regiaters,Receivers and Sur: -veyor Generals relative to receiving claims "Sander the Act of July last Should ad: verse Claitiants of any mine appear, before “the approval. of the surveys, all further » Proceedings will be, stayed. until», final, * Bettiémidnt is made, It is understood that it is not obligatory for claimants to proceed “under the statute; and when they ““do'ss, there being no adverse” interest, _ they hold thesame relation to the premises _wnthat they @id before the passage of the Act. with the additional guarantees that they propose the right of occtipancy under the ~ statute. Mr. N orton,of Minnesota, has intro“duced in the Senate a bill amiendatory of ds «Bho Homestead Lawyproviding that i in ease y or nahal teceica ut “the date of {his phaanige of ,said-dill.and had not had: ‘amy public lands Ictelled plilonthitsn ‘and upon’ which dena: -t hyde.

Union ot yéstarday : A rogue entered a tobaceo establishment on Monday, while the owner was in the back part of the ‘poém, and’stole a bex of tobacco worth 20 : . dollars. ‘Officer John Sale surprised a Chinaman in the act of stealing from the storeof B.

The‘ thief or thieves are supposed to be Chinamen, and a detective has been put upon their track: The tobacco and candles are marked with theowner’s name; and this fact may lead to their speedy recovery. —— Aut Sorp,—The Marysville Appeal rewill guess to be from “Arkansaw,” rushed into one of our news dépots yesterday and asked: for-a paper ‘containing the latest . news. “I want,”.said he “the paper wiadht tells how the President arrested the whole army!” The newsman. informed him, he had sold the last. copy. . ““That’s too bad,” replied greeny ‘as I-;wanted ‘to learn how the President managed. the job !”’ ' LipMam’s Oracus ‘nor Into.—The Memphis Post, De¢ 29th; says: A day or two ago as Mike Lipman’s Circus was leaying Winona,Mississippi,on the cars several roughs secreted behind cotton balés near the depot fired upon the party killing a musician employed in that city who served in the rebel army.as.adrummer boy. An attacheof the circus says that they were told at'tlie next station that it was the intention ‘to “killthe whole party because they were a set ofd—d Yankees,” ‘Winona is a thriving town on the Mississippi Central Railroad not far from Grenada.
