I do not know much about farming,
According to cblmikll science,
And so my potatoes and com
Must take chances with such nppllanco.
I plow deep and plant In rotation,
And raise a heap more than I want
I'm not Ill-content with the country.
And not Ill-disposed toward Grant.
I do not know much of Conventions,
And ne'er made a sceclt In my llfu
I never went much on a caucus,
Nor mlied In political strirc.
But cf I was only a spoutcr,
Or cf I was much on a chant,
I'd holler n stave for tho Union,
And speak a good word for old Grant.
I do not know much of finance,
I hate to be dunned as a debtor,
And when t owe money, I think
The sooner It's paid why the better.
And senco Grant's been boss nf the nation
Its hills hare been reg'larly met ;
lie's lightening the load of taxation
And paying (lie national debt.
I do not know much nbovil llghtin'
My notions don't that way Incline i
But hen It comes down to a scrimmage,
Ik never was beat on that Hue.
When treason was Ihreatnln' to swamp ns,
T'was he gave the thing its death blow
And as he brought us through the danger,
I ain't going back on lilin now.
I do not pretend to know much
About '-tiiriirs" and "balance of t-ane,"
But business Is gener'ly lively,
And pretty fair profits is made :
And In spite i( the grrtft limi soreheads,

Tho subjects of that letter were ns follows :
It mentioned an interview of Carmiehnel
nnd Seymour, and an interview of Car
miehnel aud Greeley, saying he (Seymour)
wns more favorably impressed with the
turn of matters, wilh which ho seemed
satisfied ; mcnlioucd tho tariff question,
and said tho best way was to leave the is
suo a vague one, as Carmiehael had propos
ed, so as to unite persons of elide tent views
in tho conlition movement, suggested that
if Greeley favored Ibis it would smooth the
way to tho end. IX-ponent's strong im
pression is that Greeley's candidacy was
mentioned, but of that ho does not say po
sitively. Tho tiui9 when this letter wus
read by deponent was about the last of
March or the 1st of April 1S72.
The subject hnd previously been brought
to deponent's attention by Curmielinel ; but
when the letters were shown, particularly
Grcoloys letters, deponent thought the mat
ter almost too absurd for nolieo ; but after
the Cincinnati nomination ho understood
their importance and endeavwed to pro
cure copies. Ho would havo exposed the
matter, except that he had hopes of procur
ing thn letters, or copies of them.

Robert J. Walker's freo Undo tariiT of i
16-hi, which struck down tlie protective I
tarill'of 161J, was paused through the Sen
ne of the I'uiled States bv ihc casting vole
of George M. Dallas, Vice President, who ;
was elected ou a ti.dct thatcarrted IVnusyl-
vania ny t"-( rallying cry oi " l'o.k, JMIIas
and the tarill'of '42." It was a fraudulent
pretense, but none the less elli-etive for
that, in striking down "Harry of the West,"
thai Kiliant champion of Protection to
American Industry. Our older citizens
will remember the intense indignation
created throughout Pennsylvania by the
treachery of George M. Dallas. In Alle
gheny county, nnd other manufacturing dis
tricts, it was particularly intense. When
the news of Dallas' vote wns leceived hero,
the workingmeti employed iti our mills and
l'ouuderics paraded in procession through j
the streets, uud afterwards burnt nil clllgy ;
of the Vice President suspended from a !
gallows, on tho summit of Seminary Hill. !
That violent measure indicated how the pub-
lie mind was stirred to. its very depths by '
i thn uuc. cteil vote ol lr. D.Hlan. I
j It lias happened since lr4(, and wo be-j
i lievo duiiug Mr. Colfax's term a-i Piva'dcrt 1
I of the Senate, that measures nll'eetiug the j
1 grout industrial interests of Pennsylvania, i
have been determined bv the easting vole i
of tlie Vice President. It is likely lo occur '
! again, nnd it is not at nil improbable that
I the Protective system may depend for its !
' life, during the next four years, on the do
; cisive vote of the presiding olllcer of tho
j Senate. In that cno lie will possess a ire- i
metidoti3 power. Ilia .'.ingle aye or no will
I strike down or maintain it policy essential
j to the prosperity of the nation. The life,
i us it were, of Pennsylvania its treat in-
the olllce of Vice President will be of greater
importance to the people of Pennsylvania
than that ot tlie l'resivleiit. 1 lie ."states are :
so equally divided by their local interests on
the principle of protection, that n lie vote
in the Senate ou n tatilfbill is a matter of
probability.
Mr. Greeley has "gone back" on his'
tarilf record, and given pledges that if elect-
ed he will iu no wise s. ok lo advise or con-
trol llio legislation of Congress on the sub- !
ject. 15ut the iulluences that will govern !
his administration will be free trade,
whether exercised by Democrats or liberal ;
Republicans. Of that there can be uo doubt,
for the protection sentiment of the country '
is compactly arrayed against his election, '
und tlie free trade or revenue reform'' i
sentiment is ns solidly for him. Greeley,
has pledged his own "hands off,' but he
has not spoken or can he vouch for the same ;
neutrality by his Secretary of ibe Treasury.
If he aUem..tcd to do so there would be a
storm in the mongrel camp at once.
Gratz Urn w n occupies a bolder and more ;
honest position on the tarill than Greeley. I
lie scorns neutrality, nnd when llio con- j
tingeney arises by which his vote shall de- ;
! cide fot orngaitisl Protection or Free Trade, j
there is no queslion its to how il will he re- j
corded. Ho is n freo trader of the most
ultra stamp, nnd does not disguise his con- ,
fictions. In a speech the other night :tt ;
! New Haven, nl'tor passiug; an eulogiuui ou j
j Mr. Greeley, the Democratic candidate for I
I Vice President declared, j
i "Mr. Greeley and I have been in crvillict j
! us journalists, ongicat it'id vital questions, j
j such for instance as the tarill'. and of all (
j men whom 1 have ever had opposjd lo mo ;
! ho is the ablest and llio best. Ho bore the j
plume ubove them all. Had ho boon nonii-1
I tinted on llio issue of protection, 1 never ;
should have sustained him. ;
Take this in connection wilh his oast dec-1
laraliotis on the tarilf, and we titid exactly '
where Mr. GraU ltrowo stands. There is !
no disguise nboul him. He is as outspoken j
us tho Free Tiado League and fully as !

The Uallimorc candidates, thercX rfi, oc

He Was "Only Blowixu." We have
heard a story lliu other day that is good
enough to print. It rims thusly : Dukely
Dodge was a noted character iu this county
n few years ago. lie was coiiMdrrnble of
a spoil nnd was always looking fora chance
to make "an honest penny" by beating
s nue one nt n game of "draw poker."'
One day l.e picked up a follow and had jusl
made arrangements for a quiet sitting,
when a big green-looking countryman, who
measured six feet in his stockings, asked it
they had any objection to making the gaum
three handed. Dukely said certainly not,
and he was glad of the addition to liio par
ty, ns it would give him more opportunities,
lo Mix" the canls. The g.ime hail progress
cd but a short time When Dukely in dculiii
gave ihc countryman four queens uud the .
other four kings, reserving lor himself four"
nets, Of course the belling was lively.
At last the countryman bad his whole pile
on the table, sonio f-'lK), rind claimed n
show for his money, Dukelv, who was one
of the most polite men in the world, s lid
certainly he should have it, when the coun
tryman threw down his four queens nnd
commenced to take in the pile.
"1 lold ui"," said the stranger "I tan boat
that."
"What have you got V" said the coutu
tryniau.
"'"I have gol four kings," said the stran
ger, and he commenced raking down when
tlie countryman bit him square between tho
eves, knocking him nboul teti feet, then,
turning to Dukely, at the same lime draw
iiig buck ready lo deal another of his sledge
hammer blows, he said : "Now, dortl yon,
what have you got ?"
"Nothing, nothing, sir!" exclaimed
Dukely, throwing bis hand into the pack.
"I was only blowing." The countryman
raked in the stamps.
Dukely afterward said ho thought that
if n man was knocked ten foot for having
four kiugs that the chances were that ho
