Does anybody know whom ex-Governor
Curtin is in favor of for President? and does
anybody care?
The official returns from Indiana shOw)
that the Republicans elect seven pf the Mug
State officers, and nine of the thirteen Coni
gressmen. The State will probably give
Grant ten thousand majority.%

animal election of members fur the
Common Council of Baltimore took place
last Wednesday, and resulte,d in a Repubii - -
can gain of two members. Maryland is
generally co . needed to the Greeleyites, but
it is now claimed that the Philovher's ma
jority hi that State will be a small one.
A telegram was received las week from
Mr. Bancroft, our Minister at Berlin, an
nouncing that the Emperor William had de
cided the San Juan boundary question.—
The substance of the decision' is that the
claim of the United States is most in accor
dance with the true interpretation of the
treaty of 1810. The termination of this
dispute in our favor may justly be placed
o the credit of the Administration which
nitiated and carried through the Treaty of
Washington.
The-curious story set afloat by the State.
Journal to the effect that ex• Governor Cur
tin.was not elected Delegate at Large to the
Constitutional Convention js set at rest by
the official proclamation of the Governor,
issued last Tilesday, Nvherein Andrew G.
Curtin is named as elected ; his name stand
ing next to George W. Woodward, Jeremi
ah S. Black, and other bright and shining
lights of the Democracy.:" The " great war
Governor" ran a few thousand behind his
ticket, but as nobody ran against him, even
by mistake, he is elected.
There were 'frauds committed in one place
at least at the late election in this
The Scranton Republican says that: in the
12th ward of that city there were 661 names
regietered; the Democratic majority returned
from that ward it 1,2161 We fear the Trib-
ne has overlooked this piece of rasealit.;
but we are glad to see that the Republican
bounty COmrnittee has not. There seems
nowls• be great danger that some of Mr.
Greeley's most zealous and efficient friends
in Scranton will, before another election, be
sent to an abode where ballot boxes are un
known.
Since Dr. Livingstone was found by the
adventurous Herald correspondent, - the world
has been favored with a number of commu-
nications from him, all tending to, estarish
the truth of Mr. Stanley's wonderful story,
and to show that the "romance of [the age"
was not a clever newspaper hoax. ' The la
test expression we have from the' wanderer , '
is in the shape of a letter to his - daughter,
published in London last week, in which he
says, " I have written two letters to Mr.
Bennett. I meant to keep the materials to
myself; but because the expedition was ex
pensive, I gave - Stanley what would help
him to write a book." This shows that
while the Great Estray is not ungrateful, he
still has an eye to the main chance, like any
Yankee. But the Joke of the - message from
Africa lies in the next clause-. " In his hands
it is harmless." Nobody can suspect the au
thenticity of 'this letter; it is _certainly suffi
ciently uncomplimentary to be genuine. At
the same time it is a first-rate advertisement
of Stanley's forthcoming " harmless" book.
During the past week. 'an/epizootic disease
of a catarrhal nature has been ranging ex
tensively among the horses in the northern
ptirt of the country. Originating in. Cana
da, it ppssed rapidly to northein and central
YUrk, and at this writing has extended
tro , o Maine to Michigan, and from Canada
New Yolk city. it is rarely fatal when
properly treated. The best authorities pre

teal from drafts of air, diAnfeetants, and
abstitience from bleeding and 4)

remedies may save many valuable animals.
The Washington correspondent of "the•
'Lynchburg Virginian, a leading Greeley or
gan of the Old Dominion, says in regard to
- •
raising money to help elect the " reforn
candidates,—
" Tito millions and a WI of dollars hare
already been rai.ed, and, I 81» assnred, , frill

very properly, only for promoting the Mier! AR
of the A•esidenllal ticket. Candidates for mi

Liberal and DemoCratie National Commit
tees."
Every man knows that not a tithe of this
immense sum Promoting
used honestly and le
gitimately in Promoting the election of Mr.
Greeley. The Doctor has insinuated time
and again that the people of whole States
had been bought up to vote for Grant. It
would seem that be has finally succeeded in
convincing himself and his followers that
such Is the fact,- and that they have gone

what the decision will be. ' The American
people will never place their dearest inter-
ests iu the keeping of ar party which, tiiV
faithful to every public trust, has finally
proved faithle'ss to its own avowed princi
ples.
The President will be re-elected, and the
corrupt coalition will be crushed. That at
least seems secure.' But the new Confede
rates should not simply be, defeated; they
should be overwhelmed by the popular " ti
dal wave" they have so often invoked—
Flaying imported into our national politics
the trading tricks and underhanded practi
ces of a village caucus, they should 'receive
at the ballot-box a rebuke that will serve as
a warning to all scheming politicians in the
years to come. For months they have slan
dered, abused and vilified the trusted ser
vants of We penple; let the people answer
them at the polls. Their chosen standard
bearer, Mr. Greeley-Lworthy leader of such
a crew!—has repudiated his own record, dis
avowed his own cherished convictions, and
apologized for his own reiterated opinions.
The country has seen him on the stump ad
vocating his own election; one day demand
ing the reform of the civil service, and the
next assuring his famished - followers that
if he is elected the. victors shall secure the
spoils of office; avowing his well-known
secession dogma, and in twenty-four hqurs
trying to cover-it up and explain it away;
claiming credit in the North as onerof I the
old Abolitionists, and in the South abjekly
admitting that perhaps he was wrong in his
anti-slavery notions ! All this the people
have seen and noted. Let them assure this
slippery " statesman," by their verdict next
Tuesday, that if he has no settled convic
tions, they have; that if he is ashamed of the
doctrines he has hattled for, they are :not;
that if ha : , principles rest so lightly upon
him that they can in put on and off withhis
daily raiment, theirs do not.
But to render this popular verdict em
phatic, there is work still to be done be_
tweet) this day and- next Tuesday night.—
Thetime for discussion is past. The voters
have already decided whom they will sup
port. The great thing now to 'be attended
to is to secure the vote of every Man. Our
only danger lies in over-confidence—in the
feeling that we shall secure the victory with
out earning it by hard work. There is a
prevalent notion that our opponents are so
demoralized by their late defeat that many
of them will not vote. .That is' a delusion
which our friends will do well to rid them
selves of ttt.onee. Democrats have a good
habit of voting every chance e they get; it is
second nature with them. If we would se
cure the majority to which we are entitled,
we must follow their example.
Let every Republican forthwith arrange
his affairs so that he will be sure to vote
next Tifesday, and let him do all he can to
stimulate his friends and neighbors to do
•likewise. See to it that there is a full vote—
and a fair one, and we shall plate our coun-4
ty and State where they belong—overwhelm
ingly on the side of right.
The Tammany Ring Eclipsed.
Some of our reader( may remember that
a few years ago astounding developments
were made at York, in this State, Whereby
it am
eared -that the political managers of
the c unty had been engliged in
with o stealing the public funds with an - au
daeit and success, not exceeded - by •the
Tams'any thieves of a bigger York. To be
sure the rogues of little York had not made
way with as much money us the magnificent
" Buss" of the metropolis; but the only rea
son was that there Ni asnl. as much to steal.
They did their best; and it wasn't their fault
that the swag was counted by thousands in
stead- of, millions. The villainy seems to
have been going on for years before, it was
discovered. In 1809 the Commissioners
wet first required to publish a statement of
- the debt of the county; and then it appear
ed that immense robberies had. been - going
on, and that bankruptcy stared the people
in the face. A special law was passed au
thorizing an issue of bonds not exceeding
$l-10,000, which sum, it was supposed, wo'd
cover all the liabilities and prove the limit
of the county debt for the future. Under
this supposition, a seven mill tax was levied
to pay the interest and extinguish the debt.
But matters went front bud to worse. The
people paid' the tax, but the debt kept grow
ing. The public chest . seemed like a sieve
through which the money rapidly filtered
into the pockets of the Ring. This state of
affairs continued until the debt reached The
respectable figure of - $300,000, and then 'a
thorough investigation was demanded and
ordered.
The examination was entered upon. But
if hpnest men sup Posed that the true state
of affairs would bi 3 allowed to appear, they
were quickly undeceived. In the month of
March last , the Commissioners' office Was
broken into, and all the vouchers ivere'ctir
ried oft. It was, believed by the people that
this crime was instigated b , certain I row',

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
wAsniNoToN; Oct' 22, 1872
DESPAIRING GREEDEYITES
Surely Greeleyism has become a lamenta
ble business. The manipulators have lOst
all the money they can raise, by the disas
trous results of the past elections, in all of
which they generally announced throughout
the country that they were sure of victory..
So impulsive were these gentlemen, that
they never imagined the wish merely "was
father to the thought," and so they yen-.
tured and lost their • respective piles upon
.the vain supposition that the people would
believejtheirniunchausen stories of corrup
tion regarding everybody connected with
the present Administration, which they had
invented and repeated so often that, they be
gan actually to believe them true, though
manufactured by themselves out of the
whole cloth.
The sorehead Republicans are special ob
jects of .pity now that they find themselves
bankrupt both politically and financially,
and have nothing to hope for but a miracle
of success, which they still pretend to ex
pect will be performed in their favor. They
refuse to judge the future by the past, and
evert, this late in the day continually try to
perduade themselves and each other by vo
ciferous cries of "fraud! fraud!" that they
have not been beaten in October, and that
they have yet a chance to win the States
in November which they lost so overwhelm
ingly in October. They forget that they
had previously raved in the most positive
and frantic manner that a decisioh' made in
October could not be reversed in November.
They are-quite sure that they have made up
falsehoods enough to sink the Administra
tion in the estimation of the people, if they
were believed, and now that it is shown they
are not believed, they seem determined ihdt
they shall be, nolens coleus. .
it Is even reported that the Democrats t!ikf
Georgia are getting evidence 'ready and, in
fact, have sent some of it forward to bolster
up the pretended lawfulness of the election
in that State, where in many sections the
entire colored vote was driven 'sway from
the polls:or otherwise so intimidated that it
was abandoned and entirely given up as
dangerous to the lives of the voters. This
is to be the eleventh-hour movement to keep
up the courage of the Liberal and Demo
cratic cohorts of Dr. Greeley until the final
rout in November.
NEW RAILROAD DEPOT.
The Baltimore and Potomac Railroad
Company are about to erect a handsome de
pot at Sixth and B streets in this city. It is
said that it will be equal 16' any edifice of
the kind on the line of the Pennsylvania
Central Railroad. At - the capital of the na
tion, and in the central' location allowed
them by Congress, a depot erected by this
company ought to be not only equal to any,
- as stated, but it should far surpass in taste
and beauty any that has been erected at the
largest of the towns along,the line mailed;
for between Philadelphia and Pittshurg
there are no towns in any wise comparable
to Washington even in population, leaving
out the present adornment of our city,
which will fur surpass anyilibig in the coun
try. Surely thisfuvored road should make
an improvement here that shall accord with
the splendor of the new Washington.
CAPITAL ITEMS.

Humphreys refused a motion for a new trial,

victed of murder, to be, hanged at the city

The Eagle also publishes the following let
ter from HMI. E. B. Morgan:
".4.IMORA, Oct. 17, 1872.
" Editor of the Pinighkeepyie Eagle:-1 have
just received your note of the' 15th instant
requesting }rte to State my- recollections in
relation to a charge - Made. by •Mr: Thomas
T. Flagler, of Lockport, against- Mr. ijor,
ace Greeley. In the 'early part of the. ses
sion of the Thirty-Fourth. Congress- Mr. ,
Flagler informed Gov. Washburne of Maine,
Anyself, and other members of Congress
from this State, that Mr. Greeley had just
left his rJont at Willard!s- Hotel, • where he
had made to hini an insulting= proposition.
That he, Greeley, offered Flagler (who' was
a member of the Priming Committee) $12,4
000 if rte would cause the binding contract
to be awarded to , Uornelius Wendell. - An
animated and Indignant discussion was had
upon the occasion, and each gentleman
present agreed with Mr. Flagler that the
proposition was a • great insult. I observe
the Tribune denies the statement. There is
no gentleman-in -the State -Nvlio sustains a
more enviable character for intelligence, ve
racity and great moral worth than Thomas
T. Flagler, and what motive be then hould
have had to mislead his follow members,
when we were all' the friends of Mr. Gree
ley, I cannot conceive. Very respectfully,
" Etrivut li. Mottomr."
Truth According to the Tribune.
Precisely what amount of reliance is to
be placed upon the veracity of Mr. Greeley
and his organ has been fully illustrated in
their controversy with the Poughkeepsie
'Eagle and Hon. T. Jr. Flagler. When .M.r.
Greeley was tirst accused. of an attempt- to
bribe a member of the Thirty-Fourth Con
gress, on behalf of Cornelius Wendell, he
met the charge with the following " author
ized"
"Mr Greeley never asked any' one to give
Cornelius Wendell either printing or binding,
or to vote that he should have Whet,
" Mr: Greeley never hail any business
transaction of 'any kind with Mr. Cornelius
Wendell, never received any money from
him, nor paid any to him, and does not kn
thcit Wendell ever offered or paid money to an
one for either printing or binding."
But when the member to whom the brib
was offerld conies out with a flat, contradi
floe of M Greeley's statement, that em
nent reformer and truth-teller is compelled
through his organ; to make this admission:
"He (Arr. Greeley) did say to Mr. Flagler
that Wendell was willing to pay for the job,
which. proved it to be profitable."
First, Mr. Greeley solemnly declares that
he was entirely ignorant of the fact that
Wendell was willing to pay for the binding
contract, and then he admits that he knew
that Wendell was willing to pay for the
votes that should secure him the job. Of
courselt follows that the "authorized" state
ment in the Tribune of October 14 was a
wilful and deliberate untruth. Comment
on this latest achievement of - the Taminany
candidate' and Lis organ is unnecessary.
Having been convicted of bearing false
witness on the fact of the offer having been
made, Mr. Greeley need hardly complain if
the public refuse to believe his testimony in
regard to the object vvithiwbich be made it.
He says (and in so &lug Contradicts' all the
professiOos - of himself and his:organ, as to
their considering ppolitical , assessments
crime against the Mate) that he intended
that the money,should go Tutu the Republi
can treasury for the Presidential campaign
%then opening. He certainly gave no hint of
this to Mr. Flagler, whose testimony is
above all suspicion, but left that gentleman
under the impression that he bad been made
the subject of an appeal to a cupidity from
which he was happily free. The destine-,
tion of the , oney does not, in either - case,
change the aspect of the affair, • nor will it
change the populai verdict that will be pass
ed upon it. .
Now, seeing how very badly Mr. Greeley
has come out of a transaction which he
boldly met with "specific contradiction,"
does anybody suppose that the case against
him in regard to Tweed's tobacco business
is not even worse, since he has steadfastly
abstained from attempting any defence in
regard to it? A similar conclusion is inevi
table in regard to his disposal of the Des
Moines bribery fund, about which he has
also preserved an obstinate silence, although
it formed the subject of investigation by a
Congressional committee. Mr. Greeley was
conveniently absent in , the West when his
presence 'wes needed befOre that, committee.
Ills supporters would doubtless have pre
ferred that in the accusations imiching his
conduct as bribery agent • for. Cornelius
Wendell, he had once more allowed, jUdg
went to go by default.-N.r. Times.
Gov. Seward's Magnanimity.

letter received by him from Gov. Seward,

ers the whole ground:
"The undersigned, 'merchants, bankers;
and business men of New York, respectfully
submit the following statements for the in:-
formation of all parties interested therein.
"The Republican candidate for President'
of the United States is General 'Ulysses S.
Grant, who was unanimously 'named for re
election at Philadelphia in June last.
" At the commencement of Gen: Grant's
term of office, March 4, 1809, the national
debt was $2,025,000,000. On the first day
of September of the present year there had
been paid and cancelled•of the principal of
this debt, $348,000,000, leaving a balance of
the principal remaining unpaid at that date, :
in accordance with the official statement of
the Secretafy of the Treasury,. of $2,177,-
000,000. -
"-Of .this amount $1,777,000,000 are rep
resented In a funded debt, bearing interest
in gold, while $400,000,000 remain unfund
ed in Treasury circulation.
"Up to the close of the, last session of
Congress the annual reduction .of taxes, as
measured by the rates of 1809, had been as
follows: • • -
Internal revenue tax, -
Income tax, (repealed,)
Duties on imposts, -
Making a total reduction of $170,000,000
" The reduction of the yearly interest on
the public debt exceeds the sum of $23,000,-
000, of which $21,742,000 are eaved by the
purchase and cancellation of the six per
cent. public securities.
A careful consideration of these results
of a prudent and faithful administration of
the National Treasury, induces the under
signed to express the confident belief that
the general welfare of the country, the in
terests of its commerce and trade, and the
consequent stability of its public securities,
would be best promoted by the re-election
of Gen. Grant to the office of President of
the United States."

Mr. Greeley on , SlaierY.. -
Here is a Southern argument for Mr.
Greeley dipped from tlieLouisville Comme,r.
" No person in this country knows the
motives and antecedents of .11brace Greeley
better than George N. Sanders,- he Confed
erate diplomat during - the existence of the
Confederacy, and a frequent visitor at Chap
paqua since the Cincinnati Convention.—
This man Sanders has recently been inter
viewed by areporter, who in a letter gives
the views of Southern statesmen; • in• which
•he declares that Greeley greatly misun
derstood man; that Abe has never - been ape
chilly opposed to slavery in its political re
lations; that men like himself still believe
in slavery; but while they do not' expect to
restore the system, they anticipate that •af-.
ter Greeley's election, which event Sanders
considers beyond doubt, there will be inau
gurated a policy of annexation, including
Canada, Mexico, Cuba and San Domingo,
and that the • negro will be forced, under
military rule,or a peon system, to labor stea
dily for the benefit of some 'one." .
