Friday, .Deo. 6'
HOIUCL' GREELEY.
It Is with sorrow moat gonutno and
rrprot unalloyed that wo announce tlio
death of tho distinguished Journalist
nnd Btnteaman whoso namo heads this
nrtlclo. Ho was, porhaps, at tho tlmo
of hU passing away tho foremost
American of tho day, although years
may lntervono boforo tho full morlta
of his dooils aro known and admitted.
As an editor ho had no suporlor if in
doed ho had an equal. Ills stylo of
writing was conclso, forclblo, original
and convincing. Probably no ono man
in tho country ovor moulded public
opinion and gavo shapo and form to
national moasuros to so groat an extent
as Horaco Greoloy. To him moro than
anyono belongs tho credit of tho eman
cipation of tho negroes. IIo was fear
loss In hU utterances whon convinced
of tholr truth and noco3sIty; ever ready
to aid tho oppressed ; Ingenious and
Htrong in tho dofenco of his opinions.
Ills private life was blamoloss j ho was
conscientious, pure, torn penx to and
eharltabio; ho was tho hardest of
wnrkir mill on looklnp back over tho
many year 0? montal toll which ho
has uudcrgonu tho wonder Is that ho
ha'l not soquor broken down. Tho
world U poorer for liis death and tho
void bo 1ms loll will bo hard to All.
From all parts of tho country and from
all classes of men, municipal bodies,
xoclctlK., religious associations, polltl
elans mid clergymen, tho rich and tho
poor, uomo expressions of sorrow; and
from hundred of pulplts,sermon3 wero
preached on tho Sunday following his
death, whoso text was, tho llfo of tho
farmer's boy, who had raised himself
to a position secoud to none In this
broul land nf ours.
Wo liavo had no sympathy with him
politically and supported blm In' the
recent diction only as tho leader In tho
pirty of rof rm, but wo have no heslta
tlou in bearing witness to tho extraor
dinary ability with which ho advocated
his own views, ovm whon most op
posed to our own. Wo mourn for him,
becauso the world contains too fow of
such manly, courageous, able, zealous
defenders of tbclr fellow men, not to
feel tho fall of such a leader among
them. Tho circumstances surrounding
his death aro tragical ; the loss of his
wife, followed by'his own defeat In tho
campaign, were too much for tho earn
est and ardent spirit to bear and tho
mighty mind gavo way. There is
nothing in the annals of our country's
politics one-half so Bad as this.
It will bo long, wo bellove, boforo
Horace Greeley's loss to mankind will
bo made good; beforo wo "look upon
his liko again." Ills busiest of busy
lives merits a peacaful rest. Ctcd grant
It.
Missing.
Tho Now York World published, last
week,a list of no less than fifty.two peo
ple who have mysteriously disappeared
from that city since August last. Some
of these, it is truo, are restored to their
friends but tho greater number aro
novcr heard from. Now and then ono
is discovered to bo a defaulter, who has
absconded with tho money of his cred
itors and upon this tho community
hears with upathy tho noxt report of
"missing," ascribing it to tho former
cause. In a city of tho sizo of New
York it Is of course to bo expected that
crime will provall.but these mysterious
disappearances havo become bo numer
ous as to create a feeling of alarm
amongst those whoso business calls
them at times to the city, and a feollng
of Insecurity is rapidly growing iu tho
country. The very loose administra
tion of criminal law in New York, tho
Immunity given to political ruffians
and tho consequent increase in crime is
doing serious Injury to tho groat me
tropolis. Its citizens owo it to them
selves to revolutionize- this stato of
alt'dirs nnd to replaco ignorance, vonal
lty nnd unfitness in Judicial ofllco, by
probity, ability and honesty. Now
York's murder list alouo is enough to
deter strangers from visiting the city
tweuty-ono murderers being now In
tho Tombs. Is hanging for murder
"played out" in New York?

Tho Timet in Its remarks upon Mr.
Greeley's death docs not falter in ex
hlbltlng itself an exception to that rule.
At tho bcdsldo oflhe dylngjournalist,
and now bosldo tho coffin which con
tains his mortal remains, the Timet has
planted Itself to shut tho gato to the good
famo with which a nation is hastening
to decorate bis tomb, and publishes the
gnawing envy which not Death itself
can extinguish in lgnoblo hearts.
"Died of Liberal Republicanism" is
tho epitaph which tho fat-witted,brutal
Jennings hustles aside tho mourning
daughters of Greeley to chalk upon
his coffin-lid.
"Greeley was the Tribune; without

Austria, by President Johnson, and was
continued by tuo souate, out no declin
ed the position. In May, 1872, Mr.
Greeloy was nominated for tho Presi

tho ensuing political campaign, Mr.
Greeley strenuously exerted all his pow
ers of argument, both in writing and in
speaking, and delivered ovor sixty ad
dresses during a very short period pre
vious to tho election. IIo was, howover,
unsuccessful. His labors in tho political
Hold, together with a severe domestic
atlletion, prostrated his nervous system,
and his great strength of constitution
was unable to support tho shock.
THE (UtKAT JOUKXAMST BEAD.
New Yonic, Nov. 29, 1872.
Mr. Greoley always said ho did not
expect to carry either tho State of Ver
mont or Malno, yet the result of the
State elections there, September 4 and
10,respectively,mado him moro despon
dent than ever. Georgia gavo tho
Democrats a rousing majority on tho
m oi uctooer, and his spirits rose pro
portionately, but when, six days later,
Ohio and Pennsylvania iravo larcro ma
jorities for tho Administration candi
dates, and whilo tho result in Indiana
was still In doubt, ho becamo
UTTERLY DESPONDENT,
and for tho first timo his most intlmato
friends becan to perceive tho defeat in
November might prove fatal to him.
Ho talked ono moment of offering tho
portfolio of Secretary of State to Mr.
Charles Jb rancis Adams, and in tho next
breath he would lament a lanro falliner
off in the subscription lists of tho Tri
bune. Such outbursts of Incoherent ex
pressions, followed by paroxysms of
rage, now became moro frequent and
spontaneous. They camo involunta
rily as it wero, and always excited anx
ious apprenensions among bis friends,
but they wero attributed to tho fact
tnat no was too mucn deprived or sleep
while watching beside his wife.
THE DEATH OF HIS WIFE.
On tho rnornlntr of October 30th. Mrs.
Greeley died. Wnen the widowed hus

and said, "Oh I why didn't you let mo

followed to tho grave by a large con
courso of people, all of whom noticed

ovldenco of
MENTAL DERANGEMENT.
Tho November election seemimrl v did
not interest him ; his dofeat did not
seem to surprise him ; ho decelvod his
menus Dy receiving tno news with per
fect indifference. It was noticed about
this time, however, that ho would tell
his private business to evory ono with
whom no was brought in contact, and
to each ono ho told a different story of
his dereat.hls troubles, and tho infideli
ty of his supposed friends. Ho would
at times)donounce tho democratic party,
whom ho would accuse of selling out tho
Administration ; then he would vio
lently criticise tho "courso pursuod by
tho opposition nowspapers, and espe
cially tho inlsuianageniont of tho Tri

niS FATAL MISTAKE
in allowing his name to bo used as a
candidate for tho Presidency. Mr. Alvln
J, Johnson was his most intimate
friend, and ono ovenlng, whllo holding
bis hand, Mr. Grooley said to him, "A.
J., do you know I made a terrible mis-
tako about Mr. Dana. Ho was right
about that 'On to Richmond I' Often
after that, when ho was unablo tosleop,
anu wniio msuiseoso was yei in lis in
clploncy, Mr. Greoloy would tako Mr.
Johnson to bis room, aud with his
hands clasped, he would Impart to him
tho most intlmato secrets of his
heart.
THE LAST I1LOW.
It was during this period that he
wroto his card resuming tho editorship
of tho Tribune, published on Novom
ber 7. Ho was inexpressibly shockod
whllo reading tho Tribuneon thofollow
Ing morning to find an editorial artlclo
headed. "Crumbs of Comfort." occupy
ing as conspicuous a position as that of
nis card. J. n is arucio, it win do re
membered, spoke of tho Tribune as hav
inir been used as "a sort of federal era-
ploymont agency, and said that for
twelve yoarsovory red-nosed politician
who had cheated at tho caucus and
fought at tho polls, looked to tho editor
or tno Tribune to securo nis appoint
mont as a gauger or army chaplain, or
as minister to France, and then closed
with an insult to friends who had stood
by Mr. Greeley during the cam
paign. It wai wiltlcn under tbo supervision of
Mr. Whltelaw iiciu, wno ntui acted as
editor of tho TWAund'durlng the polltl
cal canvass, and was inserted in tho
columns of tho Tribune without Mr.
Qreolov'a know o Jco. Mr. Grooley has
toned to tho Tribune otlico, and there
wrote a card denylnsr thercsponsibllity
for tho abuslvo artlclo, aud regretting
its publication, this denial no sent to
his old friend, Mr. Thomas N, Rookor,
v
THE COLUMBIAN
foroman of tho Sribune printing offico,
ordorlng It to bo placed at tho fioad of
tho Tribune columns on tho following
morning.
THE DENIAL DID NOTAITKAR
It was Bunnrcssod lato at ulehtby Mr.
Whltelaw Roid. On tho following day
tho Domncratle nnwsnancra flamed UP
In just Indignation on tho "Crumbs of
Comfort" article. They naturally os
sumed that Mr. Greeloy wa Ms author,
nml accused lilm of thobtackest lneratl
tudo. Their rcbuko and taunts deoply
affected tho veteran editor. Recogniz
ing tho Importance of an laimcdiato
denial of any knowlcdgoof tho nrtlclo,
he scut Mr. Reid another disclaimer,
ordorlng Its insertion iu tho noxt day's
Issue. This donlal wosalso suppressed,
and up to this very hour tho Demo
cratic Journals In the West and South
are bitterly denouncing Mr. Greoloy
under tho supposition that ho is tho au
thor of tho artlclo In question.
REASON DETHRONED OF ITS l'OWER.
Mr. Groeloy novcr again visited tho
Tribune editorial room. To a frlond
whom ho met thrco days later ho said,
In a honoloss tono of volco, "I don't go
to tho Tribune olllco any moro. I havo
no business there, bnt I want a thou
sand dollars. If you got it for mo"
after a lomr pauso. as If ho had suddon
ly forgotten what he was talking about
"I am ruined." When his mind was
recalled to tho thousaud dollars, Mr.
Grcolov told his frlond that ho might
loavo tho money with tho cashier of tho
Tribune, and It might roach him, but
ho did not go to tho Tribune office
any moro.
1118 LAST JOURNALISTIC REPORT.
On Septomber 8, nftor tho printing of
ms lamous card an editorial nrticio ap
peared in tho Tribune, boadod "Conclu
sions." (K was simply a summing up
oi tno result or tno elections in Mr,
Qroolo.v's old stylo, beclnnliict tho para

last professional effort. About this
time ho rovlscd fivo nrtlclcs which ho
had carefully prepared for nn encyclo
pedia. They nro entitled "Abolition,"
"Agriculture." "Antl-Masonrv." "Cau
cus," nnd "Southern Confederacy," tho
latter being nis history or tho Amori

pages oi manuscript.
A CONVERSATION WITH 'SIR. GREELEY
AT THE "TRIUUNE" OFFICE.
Col. Ethan Allen, chairman of tho
lato National Llboral Republican Exe
cutive Commlttoe, Informs a Sun ro
portor that ho had a long conversation
with Mr. Greoloy at tho Tribune office
Boon after tho election. The colonel
does not romembor tho oxact dato, but
it was probably on tho 8th of Novem
ber. Colonel Allen says that during tho
election excitement in uctouer, no saw
Mr. Greeley only at intervals, as ho was
constantly engaged in watching by his
dying wifo's bedside. Whon ho ontored
Mr. Grceloy's private office at tho tlmo
roferrcd to, ho was surprised at tho
warmth of tho grcotlng which ho re
ceived. Mr. Greeley stretched both
hands, and putting Col. Allen's extend
ed palm between thorn, said, "I am
glad to soe you, and thank you for your
heroic efforts In my behalf." Tho old
man's eyes becamo moist at tho samo
tlmo, and the tears trickled slowly down
his face. Tho sight of bo much qmotion
by Mr. Greeloy was something new to
Mr. Allen, who replied. "Mr. Grooley,
tho people will look on you as another
Henry Clay. You aro too great to bo
President." "Oh! it ain't that," was
Mr. Greeley's answer, "I don't caro for
politics, and would not go on tho cars to
Washington to get a commission as
President. What I do fool," continued
Mr. Greeley,"ls the I033 of my wifo.who
has boon ray companionfor nearly forty
years. I have watched by hor bedsldo
night and day, and now 1 am
COMPLeTELY WORN OUT
from unxioty and want of sleep, but am
obliged to come back to tho Tribune,
where my services aro neoded.'-'
After conversing further with Mr. G.
who promised to dino with his visitor
at his home' Colonel Allen took bis
leave, and has not seen him since.
The San roportor asked tho Colonel
whether ho thought thcro was any
foundation for tho idlo rumors to tho
effect that Mr. G. had spent tho mo3t of
his money on the election, and that its
loss had effectod him. Colonel Allen
scouted tho idea, and cited an Instance
of tho little valuo Mr. G.' placed on
money. He said Mr. G. called on him
Boon after bis nomination, and tendered
him ono thousand dollars as a portion
of his sharo of tho political expenses.
Colonel Allen told him there wero oth
ers who could afford to contribute, and
declined totakoit. Mr, Greeloy inform
ed him that ho intended giving $5,000,
and Insisted on Colonel Allen accopting
tho money, saying that if he did not ac
coptlt ho would give it tosomoonoolso.
Colonel Allen said that Mr. Greeley did
not manlfestany concern whatover in re
gard to tho money.
ON WEDNESDAY, NOV. 13,
Hon. Rutin F. Andrews was requostod
to meet Mr. Greeloy at the bouse of a
mutual friend, in this city, in relation
to a matter of business which personally
concerned Mr. Greoley. "I wont to tho
house," Bays Mr. Andrews, "and was
ushered into Mr. Greoloy'a presence.
When I first saw him I was greatly sur
prised at his personal appearance ; in
deed, I should scarcely havo known
him, so changed and emaciated was he,
had I not understood that I was in his
presence. I addressed htm cheerfully
and cordially, as in former times. He
got in a moody state, and at first mado
no response, x was snocKeu at receiv
ing no answer and pained at tho indlf
fcrenco and hesitation which he mani
fested. I saw at onco that something
was wrong. Mr. Greeley rose from his
seat as some members of tho household
camo into tho room. He ushered mo
Into an adjoining apartment, and thoro
sat down. Tho first expression ho utter
ed was, 'Rufus, I am
HOPELESSLY GONE.'
I said. "What Is tho matter. Mr.
Greeley ?"" He said again, "I amhopo
lessly gono." I Bald, "I am sorry, Mr.
Greeloy, to soe you lnthlsstate of mind.
1 Know you navosuuereu intensely in
the loss of your wife, but I hope your
defeat has not had a tendency to depress
you. Tho American pooplo esteem you
as much as ever. Tho result of tbo Pres
idential election docs notarise from any
want of appreciation of your abilities,
or of tho eminent services you havo
renuerou tno country ami lis people.'
Mr. Greoloy, after a moment's heslta
tion. repeated tno expression. "1 am
hopelessly gono." Ho added, "I am
ruined."
Ho then alluded. In a brief expression.
to tho personal business about which ho
had desired to bco mo. 1 comprohonded
what ho desired, and told him that I
would endeavor to. bco that his wishes
wero compiled with. I then added!
"Mr. Greoloy, you must not allow your
self to bo depressed by tho various mis-
fortunes which havo come upon you. It
is said that troubles never como singly,
and I am euro you have recently had
more than your share." Mr. Groolov
then aroso from his seat and left mo
with tho expression: "Rurus,I am hopo
lessly ruined."
Others, who saw him at tho samo
timo, wero greatly shocked at hlsomac
iatod and dejected appearance. I im
mediately called upon some of his intl
mato friends and told them of his con
dltlon, and requested them to cheor
him up. I felt confident at tbo tlmo
that his case was hopeless, for ho Bcemod
so prostrated that I did not bellevo it
possible for him to rally. I havo not
slnco seen Mr. Greeloy.
COMPELLED TO TAKE TO RED.
Ono morning ho said to Mr. Johnson,
as tho latter was leaving his house,
"Meet mo at tho Tribune offico at 2
o'clock this P. M. I have a private
communication to make to yo." At
tho appointed hour Mr. Johnson was
there, but Mr. Grooley declined saying
anything, except, "Meet mo at Bru
Sinclair's at bIx o'clock to-night) I
want to bco you." Mr. Johnson wont
tbero at tho timo and found Mr. Groo
ley asleep. Mr. Sinclair and Mr, Georgo

Mr, Johnson said, "A. J., tako mo

nnd at times tho patient becamo gontlo

in apparent good health.
Tho modlcai trcatmont Mr. Greoloy
was receiving proved inciiectuai. Med

LAST THURSDAY WEEK.
When ho was brought down stairs at
iur. jonnson's nouso, in iront or which
Mr. Johnson and J. R. Stuart wa3 wait
ing with a closo carriage Mr. Johnson
handed him his traditional whlto hat
and coat. "Don't send mo away, A.
J.," ho cried, as tho tears flowed down
bis deathly-palo cheoks. "Don't lot
mo go don't, don't I" Tho scono was
too affecting for thoso who witnessed it,
and all shed tears. Mr. Johnson drop
pod tho hat and coat, too much affected
to say a word. Ho never expected to
sco his old frlond again.
IT WAS DEEMED REST
that Mr. Groeloy should romaln over
night at tho resldonco of Mr. John R.
Stuart, In Tarrytown. Mr. Stuart was
an old friend, and it may be remember
ed that it was at his houso that one of
tho first receptions tendered to Mr.
Greeloy after bis nomination was giv
en. Ho was rostloss all night, nnd a
strict watch was kept upon his move
ments. IIo seemed to know that ho
was on tho way to an asylum. At first
ho told Mr. Stuart that ho would not
leavo his houso. It was only after Mr.
and Mrs. Stuart promised to call and
see him every day that he consented to
go. Beforo leaving Mr. Stuart's resi
dence he walked through tho grouuds.
Suddenly stopping and gazing intently
at two small shrubs, he said " Wo must
put tho cider in the sround,'for It will
freeze hard before Tuesday."
TAKEN TO DR. CHOATE'S.
Mfr. Stuart bocamo alarmed, and then
endeavored to placo Mr. Greeley iu a
close carriage for removal to Dr. Choate's
resldenceat Mount Pleasant. Mr. Greo
ley cried bitterly, and for a long timo
refused to go. Ho repeatedly said to
Mr. Stuart, "Don't lot thorn tako mo
away. I want-to stay hero with you."
It was only whon urged by Aunty
i.awson and Mrs. Stuart that he con
sented to go with Mr. Stuart in tho
carriage. Tho day after his arrival nt
Dr. (Jhoato's tho dlsoaso doveloned it
self in all its intonslty. Tho horrors of
acuto mania wero hourly witnessed,
and ho was violont in his actions. Tho
most skilful treatment at tho hands of
experienced physicians proved of no
avail, and tho patient gradually sank
into a stato of unconsciousness! Tho
Inflammation of the brain mado tho
stomach sympathize with it to such an
extent that Mr. Greeley refused, and
was reauy unaoio, to tano ioou in any
form.
ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT.
There wore threo Tribune stockhold

They were Samuel Sinclair, tno pub

uncontrollable that hor uncle brought
hor with him to his homo in this city.
ON THURSDAY NIGHT.
Mr. Greeley gradually became worse.
and failed to recognize tho fow Intlmato
mends and relatives who visited him.
Mr. Greoloy passed a very restless
night. Ho raved lncoherontly all night ,
threw his arms wildly about, and roll
ed and tossed from one sldo of tho bed
to tbo other. At 8 A. M. yesterday ho
remained unconscious. His oxtromitlcs
gradually becamo cold, and ho was
MOTIONLESS IN HIS RED.
Dr. Choato, Miss Ida Grooley, Mr.
and Mrs. John R. Stuart, and Aunty
Lawson wero in constant attendance,
but Mr. Greoley did notrocognlzo them
during tho afternoon. Ho appeared to
bo "praying. Onco ho said aloud, In a
strong volco, "I know that my Re
deemer llvoth," An hour later ho re
peated several times, "I died beforo I
was born," and at precisely 4 o'clock ho
alarmed those about him by saying in
his natural tono of volco, "It Is dono."
Thoso woro his last words. Hotheu
again rolapsod into a stato of total un
consciousness, his respirations becamo
weaker, nis extremities colder, and his
facoboro tho unmistakable imprint of

and thus remained until G P. M.
THE SCENE AT THE DE ATIII1ED.
Mr. Relgnold, Short and Whltolaw
Rold called during tho ovenlng, and
wero admitted to Mr. Groolov 'a room
and bcdsldo, Mr. Rold took tho dying

"Do you know mo?" Tho groat editor
noudou nis neau in tno aturmativo,
touched his breast with tho hand which
was disengaged, and ngaln relapsed
into a state of insensibility.
Dr. Choato said that It was the last
flicker of the expiring flame, and tho

Ills breathing though less labored was

soul when alio noticed that
HE HAD CEASED IIRRATHINO.
Dr. Choato was ntonco called, and ho
pronounced him dead. Thon ensued a
Bceno of grief nnd sorrow, as tho almost
heart-broken daughter, who had lost
both mother and father within thirty
days, was removed to another apart

Tho room In which Mr. Groeloy died

Tlio Future of tho Democracy.
Let no enemy of republican llborty
lay tho flattering unction to his soul that
tho Democratic party has ceased tooxlst.
It has survived tho successive defoats of
tho last twelvo years and comes out of
tho latest conflict stronger in numbers
than ever before. Although its candl
dato for President failed to carry a ma
jorlty of tho electors, ho received a clean
majority of tho whlto voters who nt-
tendod tho election. Grant's majority
of tho popular vote is mado up of tho
lately enfranchised negroo3. Without
thoso ho would havo been in a minority,
Tho voto in tho United States for Presi
dent at tho lato election was about G,-
959,000. This was divided as to raco
about as follows :
Whites for Grooley 3,100.000
Whites for Grant 3,000,000
Whlto majority for Greelty 100,000
Negroes for Grant 850,000-
Negroes for Greeloy 60,000
Negro majority for Grant 800.000
Deduct whlto maj. for Greoley... 100,000
Qrant's total majority 700,000
At least ono million Democrats did
not voto. This may soom an extrava
gant estimato,but whon it Is remember
ed that in Pennsylvania alono Greeley
receivod 105,000 votes loss than Bucka
lew, tho statement is not astounding.
Wo take it, therefore, Grant is a mln
nority Prcsldont, in that ho failed to
poll a majority of all tho votors of tho
United States, notwithstanding the
solid negro voto in his fivor. He owes
his re-oloctiou to tho lattor nnd to tho
immenso sums of monoy expended by
his partisans in tho corruption of votors.
Now, is a party that polls thrco mil
lions of votes for au unpopular candldato,
under tbo most advorso circumstances,
and which can poll four millions for a
popular nominco under favorablo con
ditions, dead or about to dlo? Therols
considerable llfo in such a party. It is
able to glvo and tako pretty sovero
blows, Thcro is, there must be, n future
and a glorious ono for such a party. It
is bound togother by principles that aro
eternal and unchangeable. The right of
solf-govornmont, a strict construction
of tho constitution, civil and political
equality, freedom of consclonco, impar
tial taxation, a sound and stable cur-
roncy, these aro tho tonots of tho great
party which now lifts itsenup from its
latest dofeat. Purged of prejudice, pur
ified by adversity, ennobled by sacri
fices which humbled Its prido.this party
to-day challenges tho respect and ad
miration of tho country. In tho coming
timo tho doctrines for which it has con
tended will bo surely vindicated. Tho
antagonism of raco which is now foster
ed by tho so-called Republican party
through its intrigues for tho consolida
tion of tho negro voto, tho favored
classes which havo boon pampered and
enriched by tho legislattion of tho last
decade, tho imperialism which is root
ed in tho policy of tho prcsont adminis
tration, tho proscrlptivo politico-religious
movement whoso sworn leagues aro
encouraged by tho dominant party, tho
contempt of tho constitution which
pervades tho politics of tho federal capi
tal, tho partial and unjust tax laws
mado to enrich tho fow at tho expense
of tho many, and tho fluctuating cur
rency which is the plaything of tho
gamblors in gold,all theso will succumb
to the Democratic opposition Just assuro
as tho Amorican peoplo will, in duo
tlmo, comprehond tholr own interests
Lot us then bo patient. Lot us work and
wait. Patriot.
The Now York Church Journal Bays
of Gonoral Meade : "A moro saintly
knight never drew n sword. A klndor
hoart nover beat. A simpler and truer
Christian has seldom, in. theso days,
lived; none worthier to wear 'tho
grand old name of gentleman' without
a blot, thau Georgo G. Mcado. Phila
delphia did well to drapo horsolf in
weeds of mourning, Sho expressed but
the whole nation's feelings. Knowing
him nearer, she felt hor losses nearer,
But wo may all thank God for tho ox-
amplo of a llfo truo to duty, for anothor
whlto namo to placo among all tho
wreath-crowned names upon tho na
tion's walls, a model and au incitement
Whllo tfco nation stands."
Hard on llartranft,
Tho New York correspondent of tho
Philadelphia Sunday Jtfercuiy, has tho
following bit of gossip rolatlvo to our
newly-elected Govornor :
"Did I tell you last week that Gover
nor Dlx was,on tho famous champagno
train which carried tbo Truman pol
iticians to Washington? Well, it seems
that old shoot 'om did not know ho was
riding over tho rails In company with
tho post-offico sappers aud minors; and
when it was told to him that "that
norson yonder Is Govornor Hartranft."
ho shrugged hlsshouldors and ropllod i
"Well, bo don't amount to anything!"

General Dlx added i "Grant oJectod

Mr. Nowlln, from a majority of tho
Commitloo on Printing, reported that
tho Stato Printer, under existing laws,
was not entitled to tho printing of tho
Convention, and that tho commlttco
had not yot had tlmo to solicit bids.
A minority roport signed by two
members to tho opposlto ollect was pre
sented. Mr. Whlto (Indiana) moved to amond
thomsjorlty roport, bo as to authorlzo
tho Committee on Printing to confor
with tho Stato Printer, and to award
him a contract If ho will do tho work
at tho oxlstlng rates with tho Legisla
ture. Tho amendment was agrood to
by 51 yeas to 49 nays.
Mr. Nowlln moved to lay tho wholo
subject on tno tuuie. iioi tigrueu
to.
Mr. Nowlln offered an amendment,
"Provided that the commlttco shall re

resolution looking to an amendment of
tho constitution nn advisory council, to
bo composed of ox-Governors of tho
Commonwealth who, with tho Gover
ror( shall consider and pass upon ap
plications for pardons and remission
of fines and forfeitures.
Mr. Hopkins called tho "provlous
quostlon" (preventing debato and fur
thcr amendments). This was sustained
by eighteen members, but tlio Convcn
Hon, by n voto of 38 yeas to 52 nays,
refused to order tho main question to bo
put. This action, under tho ruling of
tho Chair, took tho cntiro subject out
of tho control of tho Convention for tho
day (and of courso until the meeting in
January next in Philadelphia.)
Adjourned until tho first Tuesday of
January, 1873, to meet in Philadel

ure, so at tho meeting of tho Senate,
Simon Cameron, fit spokesman for such
a set, moved a resolution to adjourn till
Wcdnosdayand rofused to withdraw it.
This prevented tho proposed adjourn

for Cameron to obtain moro utter con
