North Carolina Repudiating Her
Debt-The Governor's Message.
The message of the Governor,
which was sent in recently shows ths
debt of North Caroliua io be thirty
four million eight hundred thousand
dollars. The people are unable to
pay the interest on thie sum. The
Governor recommends the sale of the
railroad interests of the State to pra
. vent repudiation, but at the same
time sap that no financial policy
should be determined upon until the
facts connected with the debt is ascer
tained, in order that some conclusion
:uay be reached as to the disposition
of the liabilities of the State.
After the message was received a j
resolution was offered in the House. I
and referred, reciting that as ths dsbt
was ideated by strangers under the
bayonets, who voted the moneys to
railroads, and otherwise embexxled
the fund* of the Slate, a provision
should therefore be made for repudia
ting the entire State debt
This radical Tammanyism in North
Carolina sets Tammany ism in New j
York in the shade. New York city
U not bankrupted by the Tammauy i
stealings and driven to repudiation,
though plundering* there were large;
not to in North Carolina; radical
mismanagement there has bankrupted
the coin mou weal lb, and all the south
ern states, by radical carpet-bag rule,
are now in the same bad and worse
than beggarly condition. Hers is
something for Brown to writes chap
ter on.
The Bellefonte Republican has been
grumbling about the tariff for the last
two years like a fidgety old grany, and
scolding at the democrats for interfer
ing with the prosperity of the labor
ing classes. We should like to ssk
grany Brown —a question we pat to
hira two years ago amtwhich he promis
ed to answer "next week," but which
he has neglected to answer up to this
time —whether the radicals did not
have complete power, for the last ten
years, to pass any kind of tariff they
pleased, and that if there is any injus
tice done the laboring classes on
account of the tariff, whether the
blame does not lie with his ownjparty f
How on earth are the democrats to
blame? We can conceive the possi
bility of Brown swallowing sixteen
apple-dumplings, but how on earth
be thinks he can make his readers
swallow such silly stuff as he puts out
about the tariff, we confess we can
not comprehend.
The present tariffis a burden upon
the middle classes, and a direct rob
bery of the poor to enrich a few mo
nopolists, and the change that the
Bellefonte RepMican advocates is to
increase these burdens of the poor and
squeese out of them what little is left
them under the present tariff act; and
although these radicals have had un
limited power for the last ten years,
not a section has been incorporated by
them into our tariff laws, but what is
a direct robbery of the laboring and
consuming classes for the benefit of a
few hungry monopolists, whose mil
lions have been unjustly wrung from
tbe farmer and mechanic and labor
ing man, by a tariff that brings no rev
enue to tbe public treasury but only
fills the coffers of tbe monopolists.
Alexia.
Alexis —well, may some reader of
the REPORTER say, what is tbe mean
ing of Alexis. You need not run for
your Webster Unabridged, because
you will not find it there, but we can
tell you sooner —Alexis, is a Russian
grandduke, son of the present Csar, who
last week arrived at New York, with
some other Russian dignataries, to vis
it the United 3tates. The Gothamites
had been looking for Alexis for two
weeks, expecting bis arrival every day
—but unfavorable winds detained tbe
Russian fleet which bore the Prince,
New York, however, kept herself in
readiness to give him ft grand recep
tion, and finally Alexis did arrive.
All New York turned oat, dressed up
in its "go-to-meetings," the day Toes,
day 21st inst, was fine, and Gotham
lmd a grand holiday. Alexis is said
to he a tall, finely built, well propor
tioned young man, and altogether a
gentleman. His reception at New
' York was a magnificent one, the mili
tary were out and a great demonstra
tion was bad in the city, civic and mil
itary, and the grand-duke was greatly
pleased with the welcome that was ex
tended to him. All the vessels in the
harbor were gaily dressed, and the
American and Russian collors were
as numerous almost as the flakes of the
recent snow storm; Alexis thought
New York a great city, and thinks
Broadway the finest street he ever saw.
The prince was welcomed to America
by Gen. Dix, in a short speech, to
which the grand-duke Alexis replied
as follows:
GKVXBAL DIX, LADIKS, *KB GEKTLK

Soon after the arrival of the Grand
Duka at his apartments in the Clare

message to his father by cable:

raised their opera glasses, and
tried to eat him up with their eyes.
We do not think this hungry staring
of the upper tens, was very becoming,
and if some of thcee faahiouable New

would call it greenneaa and a want of
good breeding. But the city folks are
green too, sometimes.
The latest and coolest radical creep
out, is that Evans the great thief, aud
Hodge, the still greater radical rob

to a lucrative office by Geary or

greedy and hungry to give a democrat
any pickings, and au honest democrat
stands about as little chauce to get a

that the above named thieves belouged

Fraudulent Issue of Bonds in
South Carolina—"Nobody to
Blame.
A tribune dispatch from South Car
olina confirms the reports of the fraud
ulent issue of South Carolina bonds.
The Governor charges the Treasurer
with a fraudulent issue of bouds. or
rather of re-selling bonds which had
already been converted into new
bonds. The State Treasurer and Fi
nancial Agent deny this, and say the
Governor is misinformed. The result
of the matter i£. that the State Treas
ury is emptied snd the credit of the
State below par.
This is the result of caipet-bagism.
Before South Carolina was cursed with
northern vagabonds, who now run her
state government, her people knew no
such thing as dishonesty within her
borders, among those connected with
the administration of the state. Now
she is bankrupt and disgraced, through
the operation of the carpet-bag
thieves.
More RTBT Leases.
The Pennsylvania railroad company
has now also leased the Cleveland and
Pittsburg road, and is negotiating for
the lease of the Philadelphia, Wil

also a rumor that the same company
is trying to lease the Boston, Hertford
and Erie road. If there are any rail
roads in the moon, the great Pennsyl
vania sarporation will be lure te lease
them also. Look out for a negotiation

Mrs. Stanton Tells How to Defeat
General Grant
To the Editor of tbe Golden Age :
Sir —It has been evident for some
time that the leading political parties,
having done their work, must soon
give place to new organizations with
progressive principles and live issues
on which to rouse the enthusiasm of
the people. Tbe Democratic party
virtually died with slavery, and the
specific work of the Republican party
ended with tbe adoption of the four
teenth and fifteenth amendments.
And now so alarmed have the peo
ple become with the bare-faced aud
stupendous frauds and corruptions in
high places that tbe test of the Presi
dential campaign of 1872 will be hon
esty against corruption. It is gener
ally supposed that the result of the
October and November elections will re
nominateGen. Grant in 1872, although
a majority of the people are opposed to
his re-election.
No man can be nominated who can
unite the opposition. To carry the
North he must have a good war rec
ord , and have been sound on slavery
question before tbe "new departure,"
and such a man could not carry the
border or Southern States.
Now, if the opponents of General
Grant really wish to defeat him, and
are willing to show their hands, they
can do it without sacrificing their par
ties or principles. In our present
mode of electing a President, he does
not represent a majority of the people
of the country, nor olien even a ma
jority of the voters of his own party.
There are mauy voters, and not a
few politicians, who are ignorant of
the constitutional provisions for elect
ing a president and they would be
very much surprised to wake up some
morning and find tbe old adage "you
can't tell till after election" changed
to "you can't tell after election." The
electoral college may prove a rock on
which the ship of State will some day
he foundered. The members of the
electoral college have by the Constitu
tion other powers than simply to regis
ter the will of their respective parties.
It has become with such a mere form
that instead of choosing our most dis
tinguished men as electors we elect
some of the most insignificant and un
principled, and if you can buy a legis
lature why not in a close election, two
or three Presidential electors?
But to tbe plan. It is to run a
fusion electoral ticket with a platform ;
a candidate in every state opposed to
Gen. Grant and corruption.
This is the only way the opponents of
Gon. Grant throughout the country
can untie for hia overthrow. Weak
ened Hepuhlicana need not fear the
result, as the Senate of the United
States will be Republican during the
next President in I term.
Would citiaens of the Kin pi re State
feel alarmed if represented in |)>eelec
toral college by suelt men as Sanford
E. Church, Horace Greeley, Horatio
Seymour, or General Hamilton, Ward ?
Would Miasouroi he disgraced hy
such men a* B. Grata Brown or ex-
Senator Henderson ?
Would New England miller from
the judgment of such men as Gover
nor Claflin, John Ouincy Adams, J.
I ,nt In op Motley or James E. English?
1 Could Ohio ho misrepresented by
Win. K. Giocabeck or General J. If.
Cox? Such a ticket would sweep
both South and North as clean as the
"Reformers" swept the Tammany
Riug in the last election.
The electors chosen could meet in
general convention and noiuiiiNte a
I'resideul; then nsseiuble in the capi
tals of their respective Slates, and
cast their votes for the nominees ofj
the convention. Thus would the spir
it of the Constitution, as laid dowu hy
the fathers lie vindicated, aud the Pres
idential chair lie occupied by ascholarj
a gentleman, a statesman aud an hon
est man, which we all know is not the:
fact to-day.
ELUAHKTH CADT STANTON, j
How it into be Put Through.
The Washiugton organ of Graut
ays that it will require not less than
ten thousand regular trooiw, judicious
ly distribute*! through the Southern
States, to insure a free and fair elec
tion iu those States in 1872 ; and that
it may be necessary for Congress to
increase the ariuy..
This is but oneofnumerous indications
that Grant intends to force his re-elec
tion by placing the South uuder bay
onet rule should he receive the Re
publican uomiiialion. Such a method
of insuring a free aud fair election
certainly deserves the credit of origin
ality. it is only equalled by the in
genuity of the Ethiopian present-taker
who relates his experience in one of
the negro minstrel halls. "Pooipey.
whsr you get dat watch ?,' "A rnau
gub it to me." "Gub it to you for;
nuftin? "Yes—but 1 had to knock
him dowu free or fou times before
be'd do it." If Grant runs for presi
dent in 1872 he is determined to have
a free aud fair election, even if it
should be ueccssary to bayonet every
man in the Southern Slates who op
poses him. What would be deemed
a free and fair election by a mau who
has used United States troops aud
Galling guns to control the action of
a Republican Convention at New Or
leans may easily be imagined.
HI'SBASIM LIABILITY. —The prev
alent opinion that a husband is legally
liable for all bills, of whatever nature,
that his wife may contract, was uot
sustained by Judge Thayer, in Phila
delphia, ou Wednesday last. In a
case in court the Judge decidtd in fav
or of a husband who Had been sued
by a dry goods firm for a debt con
tracted by bis wife. Defense set up
that defendant furnished his wife with
an ample supply of necessaries. In
the course of his charge Judge Thay
er said : "It is a false and foolish no
tion for trAdeapeople to entertain that
a husband is bound to pay all bills
contracted by his wife. No such
monstrous doctrine is allowed in the
law. Tradesmen must ascertaiu the
facts and the true relation of man
and wife before allowing the latter to,
run up bills which he is to be looked
to pay." Commenting upon this ex-j
position of this law, which ought to be
more familiar lhau it is, the Phila
delphia Record thinks that when
tradespeople come to distinctly under
stand it "a very sensible step will
have been accomplished towards re
form in the wanton extravagance and
ruinous folly which, under the mere
tricious impulse of the stupid despot
called "fashion." so wastes the sub
stance, mars the manner*, deforms the
persons, degrades the morals and
wrecks the haopinessof myriad bouse
holds, and and individuals, not only
in this community, but throughout
the country."
The corn crop of the West, the pres
eat KUOD, has proved the best harvest
ed for years. In many portious of In >
diana, lowa, Missouri, Nebraska, and
Minnesota corn is offered in the cribs
at fifteeu cents a bushel. In Illinois
and Kentucky the yield has beeu be
voud all precedent. The wheat crop
has also been very large. In Europe,
on the contrary, there appeals to have
been a heavy deficit in the grain hai
vests in nearly all countries. In Eng
land the general falling off has been
variously estimated at from fifteen to
twenty per cent; while in Hungary,
the Danubian Principalities, portions
of Austria, and in Southern Russia —I
all countries that have usually export
ed large quantities of grain —there,
lias been a great decrease from the:
average production. The ravages of
the potato rot and the cattle disease in
Great Britain will increase the de
mand for grain and animal food, and
the United States will bo able to sup
ply both in any quantity at reasonable
prices.
Strange Fact.
Every Radical Senator in New
York Legislature who was bought by;
Tweed & Co., to vote for the corpora
tion charter, by which so much money
was stolen and the people defrauded,
and who was a candidate for re-elec
tion was re-elected by the Radical
party and will take his scat in Janu
ary next. This circumstance proves
one fact beyond all boubt, that it mat
ters very little what a radical docs
while in office, if renominated which
he can easily effect by money, he will
be re-elected. The cry, "the party
must be saved" is all powerful, and,
up to the polls they go pell mcll, like
a flock of sheep and vote the ticket
clean through. Not so with Demo
crats. In New York they did not
preach reform merely before the elec
tion and then go nnd vote the ticket.
They went to t)ie polls and acted out
their profession even should the party
be defeated. In this course they
showed their good sense. The Radi
cals however took good care to vote
their men in even if the party had boen
bought the year previous by Tweed.
With tbem party is everything, hon
esty iu candidates nothing.

Let u* now change the scene. We go to
the city of William Penn, on the banks of
the Delaware in the year lit!.
Philadelphia was then in commotion
One of the proprietaries, Thomas Penn..
had landed at Chester, below Philadelphia,
and wa* expected to arrive very soon in the
city. The window* and balceniea were Hi
ed with ladies, the mob Ailed the ttreet*. A
boy ran through the *lreel* crying out that
the proprietary wa* coming on horse back
and that his sceptre wa* carried bwfore him i
in the Governors coach. I a trick Gordon,
Kq., was Governor ruling in the name of
these proprietories. John, Kichard and;
Thomas Penn, commonly resided in Eng
land. About four o'clock iu the afternoon
the Governor 1 * carriage came with Thom
as Penn. There was also the crutch,
of tho lame man in the coach.;
which the boy bad mistaken for a sceptre,
at he did the servant on horse back riding
behind it for tho proprietary. The ship* at
the wharf fired salutes ; all the bell* in the
city rang during the afternoon and at
night the city was lighted with bonfire*.
Tho Governor took the proprietary to hi*|
house. Afterward* the city council* had
the colonial legislatures give him a festi
val The Indian chiefs of the "Five na
tions," who happened then to be in Phila
delphia, rejoiced greatly to see one of the
vice-sovereigns of the province and he and
they renewed the treaties made by his de
ceased father, the Illustrious William
Penn. On that day the Joy of the high
contracting parties was expressed by Are
engine* winch played all the afternoon to,
the especial delignt of the Indian chief-;
tain*. j
But poor Tboma* Penn wa* like a fish
out of water. William Penn died in great
pecunriary oibarra**tiient in his collonial,
arrangement*. He left hi* English estate
to his oldest son in Pennsylvania, which,
taken altogether, wa* esteemed of less val
ue than the English property to hi* four
younger mm by hi* second wife. One of
these, Dennis died very young.
As the province of Pennsylvania was not
supposed to be an estate sufficient to sup
port of tour boys, Thomas and hi* broth
er John were apprenticed to a linen draper
in Bristol, England. Both of these broth
ers ceasea to be Friends or tjuarker* and
conformed to the established church.
Both occasionally used the "plain lan
guage" for soma time after thu change.
The Governor and several hundred men
on horseback bad received Thomas at
Chester. Before they reached Philadel
phia thi* cavalcade reached eight hun
dred, Thomas was quite bewildered at
first ll* tried to drink a glass of wine at
Chester but his hand trembled so that he
could hardly bold the gives. In due tiuic
he got over this timidity. He be-i
came a great roan: lived a somewhat,
dissolute life ; wa* taciturn and unpopular in
manners and finally returned to England.
Land in Pennsylvania began to rise in val-,
ue. The estate of the proprietaries was'
considerable. Thomas renn after his re-j
turn to England wa* a wealthy gentleman,
having power at a sort of lord-lieutenant
over an important and rapidly improving
province. Years passed by and Penn, then
in middle life, made visits to Kaston New
ton in Northampton shire. That part of
England had ocen improved much, hills
gradually stooping and alternating with
cultivated farm* and occasionally royal for
est Hirers, brooks and village* diversi
fied the face of the country. But it wa#
not these thut attracted Thomas Penn to
Northampton shire. Neither was it the
stately architecture nor the park* and gar
dens of Easton Newton. In those hall*
and amidst those showy trees and rare
flowers was the Lady Julianna Fermor,
daughter of tho Karl of Powfrol, and it was
she who allured him to that delightful
place In November 1761 Lady Julianna
became the wife of Thomas Penn.
In the year 1080 the Indian* had granted
to William Penn nn extent of country
reaching from former purchases, notheast
wardly as far a* a man could rid* on horse
back in two days. No moasure* were tak
en to determine the extent ofthis grant un
til 173". when a new treaty formed at Dur
ham. eight mile* below ttie site of Easton,
decided that the granted land should begin
at Wright*town in Bucks county, and
should extend as far as a man could walk
in a day and a halt I
Thomas and John l'onn advertised for
tho best walkers. Three were selected,
one of whom, Edward Marshal, started at
•unrise from a marked spruce, rieptember
19th, 1787. The Indian path which he fol
lowed pas.ed the Lehigh about a mile be
low Bethlehem over what is now called
"Jones Island." Ho walked about ttfty
miles the first day and twenty-four the next
half day. The Indians regarded this walk
as a fraud ; one poor old Indian said : "He
no sit down to smoke, no shoot tquiirel but
lun, lun, lun, (run) all day long.
As early as 17(JH or 1710 Germans emi
grating from Europe for
had begun to inhabit some interior portion*
of this tract. About the year 1700 there

I Ten ys-ar* to-night— yea, ten year* to
night, and memory dream*.—lt wa* a
beautiful night, the moon looked like nn
I opal in the blue concave uf heaven, the
I star* glittered sweetly and lent a helping
: band to deck the crystal tcene. That tame
moon and star* look down in (|Uiet beauty
to-night jll*t the same a* when thoy kept
watch o'er the bridal hour of Aline Stuart
—and now my heart crie* out lb its deepest
I agony: Aline Stuart! Aline Stuart I where
art thou to-night when the misty veil aud
orange wreatTi, the fiearl, satin, and dia
mond* and memory only echo*, where?
We look toward the upper deep and in
tune* of anguish petition tho queen of
niglit; alas, site muvos on in silent heauty,
speechless to me. We plead to the stars
but .-voke no answer as they gleam. O, *o
peacefully, upon us, aud we are left help
less alone.
Ol Aline, how beautiful wert thou on
thy bridal uiglil- amid a bower of beauty,
thou wort transceudaiitly the fairost
Yuutli and beauty were gathered there that
night—silvery peal* of laughter echoed
through thy palars home, all was hilarity
and joy. No cloud be-dinuued the smiling
face ofauy who made up thai happy, bril
liant throng. All, all were gay and ioy.
nut, and, 0, Aline, thou out tfione thorn
all. Dreamy music Hlied the perfumed air,
and streamy lamp* *hed tight upon fairy
and our prayer at that hour wa*,
may lif* to one and all ne er he broken, by
false vow* or shaded by rare torrow.
And to-night we aueslion memory, ask
ing Aline Stuart, where it the sparkle of
your eye, where the ro*o-tint on your
cheek? Ah, listen to memory'* echo "fa
ded and gone."
Ten year*, Aline Stuart, have brought
changes to you; no heart can tell save
your*. Tbe proud man who slot dby your
tide that night and vowed to love and pro
tect you, proved a villian, and when iuot
needed fled from you and none knew
where.
It i* night in a gay southern city , all i*
bustle and escitouient, and why ? potted up
in conspicious place* we read: "Aline
Stuart, queen of tragedy, a* Fhordra"
Let us, dear reader, enter the auditorium,
and hear thi* great woman whuee persona
tion* wa* the them* of every tongue.
Uas.ligbl, music and n sen of face*
greeted u* a* • e enter. Comfortably seat
ed. we waiL Mutic, soft and sweet, limn
wild a* the swell uf the sea—now low like
the bubbling* of a rill—then again weird
like a* the mutic of spirit* in the Ilara
mountain*.
j The overture of Beethoven is over; the
i curtain rise* and our eye* rest on a scene
jin Germany. Faullle*. figure* flaunt gay Ir
<>n the stage and soon we are startled with
the applause of tbe audience and before us
standi, not the innocent girl of our child
hood—but a gloriously magnificent croat
tare ; the cold? haughty curve of her lip*
the proud glance uiih use eye*, tell us how
changed—yes, how changed—applause Ail
ed that vast building, and then she stood,
bowing lowly her acknowledgment of tbe
honor paid to her, we watched her with ail
the devotion of the olden time.
One moment the innocent oenitrnt, the
next, the tragic power of a cultivated, aw
well-tudied Phordra. Applauae greeteT
her on every tide, and in return a cold
•mile illuminated her lip* and a* we gated
upon this queenly woman, we only knew
her a* Phordra. At her royal robe* *wept
the stage floor, we went back to the olden
lime, when aba, a playful girl, tang song*
in the old meadow-land*; then again wa
looked fur Aline Stuart, the Joyou* happy
bride of year* a gone; the creamy aatin and
glittering diamond* ; the breath of flower*
and muc tweet a* the wailing* of an Ao
lian harp—how they come to ut that night
almost a* a reality.
Did our eyaa deceive u*. or wa* it truly
lour own little Aline Stuart before us?
The voice w* Juat a* tweet and mellow a*
iu the olden day*, only mure cultivated
The regal brow and gloriou* eve* were
juat ihaMtne; yet a cold, haughty smile
tat upon her lip*, and cultivated slag*
gesture* made a change, one who knew her
in cirlbood * bloom would, after careful
stuJy, recognise thi* haughty regal wo
-1 man.
A* the curtain fell we bade adieut o Aline,
' and sincefthat eventful night we have never
I met. And now rear* have sped along and
' brought many changes to us all often when
' old facet come trooping to ut fresh a* in
; child-hoods happy days, we see the fairy
' form and smiling tace of Aline Stuart-lust
* the same as w# did ten vears ago to-right.

The Swiss Chicago.
i -—-
Sletck of the Burned City of (ienena
;|. The smoke from the smouldering
embers of Chicago has hardly been
"dissipated when there comes from be
r yond the water intelligence that anoth
er "City of the letke" has all hut suff
ered the fate of its American sister, to
which it bears so close a resemblance.
.Geneva, if not as complete a waste
as Chicago, has to narrowly escaped it
. as to afford almost a parallel to our
. unparalleled calamity. Private de
spatches received here yesterday de
scribed the city as still at the mercy
II of the flames, and the citizens, al
though resolute, appalled by a disaster
which Europe is little prepared to
meet. Some of the finest quarters of
the city have beeu destroyed, including
its Lherraan and Tremont houses.
iThc full extcut of the calamity has
jnot yet boen ascertained, and cannot
be eetimated for some day*.
Big Oil Strike.
The Titusville Courier of the 23rd,
says the McLaughlin well, near Cash
Up City, which has been producing
two or three hundred barrels per day
with the tools in, was relieved of them
yesterday, when she commenced flow
ing at a tremendous rate, our infor
mation, which is reliable, putting the
ouantityat from twelve to fifteen hun
dred barrels per day. This is undoubt
edly the largest well struck in several
years, and as it is situated on compar
atively new territory, wemayexpect
a turn of the tide operating now flowt
ing towards the Clarion region to
this new Eldorado —Cash Up City.
The point ofthis new strike is between
Pleasantville and Pithole, a little near
er the latter than the former place,
and some seven or eight miles from
this city. We expect to see a rush of
operators in that direction during the
winter resembling that to Pleasantville
when that territory was iu its prime.
It would be quite an improvement,
nay* the FitUburg Poet, upon the
rogues gallery to photograph the fol
lowing Radical Governors and exgov
ernors, vix: Holden, of North (Jaro
line ; Bullock, of Georgia ; Butler, of
Nebraska; Scott, of South Carolina;
Austin, of MinuetoUt; and Davis, of
Texas. They ought to be preserved in
some way for the edification of coming
generation*. A man who could steal
$50,000,000 like Bullock, or $30,000,-
000 like Scott, and still retain the con
fidence of the leaders of his party,
ought uot to lie consigned to oblivion,
lie deserves a monument of brans, and
Graut himself ought to deliver th* •ra
tion at the dedication; All that he
need My would he this: "Behold the
thief of the period."
That was rather a two-edged joke
which was made not so long since in the
Texas Legislature in this wise : At the
late election some five Democrats were
elected to the lower house to fill un
expired terms, and on coming up to
the clerk's desk to qualify took the
customary oath to support the thir
teenth, fourteenth, and fiflhteenth
amendments. At this a sable member
named Cotton, there unto incited by a
carpet-bag Satan behind him, moved
that whereas the spectacle of five
Democrats swallowing all the amend
ment-* in one day was plory enough
the House do uow adjourn. From
the Democratic side came a request
that the mover read bis resolution
over, and then was developed the
facts that the Hon. Cotton could
neither rend nor write, and was then
holding the manuscript of his resolu
tion upsidedown.

Grant's re-nomination. Of course it
