The Two Ulysss*
History will tell the readers of the
REPORTER that there was an Clyases,
a king ®f Ithaca ; ami every one
knows we have a modern notoriety of 1
the same name, Ulysses the Ist, ol 1
America.
Ulysses, of mythology, when lie hail
gaiucd the hand of Penelope, daughter
of leanua, returned to his own coun
try, when his father resigned him the
crown. The abduction of Helen by •
Paris, however, as this pretty story
goes, did not long permit him to re
main in his kingdom ; and as he was
bound, in common with the rest,
to defend her against every intruder,
lie was summoned to the war with the
other princes of Greece. Not wishing
to leave his beleved Penelope he pre
tended to be insane, he yoked a horse
and a bull together, and ploughed the
seashore, where he sowed salt instead
of grain. The artifice was soon de
tected by Palamedes, by placiog be
fore the plow of Ulysses his infant sou
Telemachus, and convincing the
world that the father was not insane
because be had the foresight to turn
away the plow and not hurt his child.
Now our Ulysses has also gone to the sea
shore, with horses, jackasses, aud pups,
and is pretending there to be plowing
for civil service reform, and is as loathe
ts leave the presidential chair, which
he disgraces, as was the ancient Ulys
ses to go to war. But the test of Pala
medes has been applied, and Graut's
profession has all proven a humbug—
he has placed all his relations in office;
these have been robbing and plunder
ing at so enormous a rate, that the
people have become alarmed and
cry for reform, and, in order to help
his election, Grant has new joined in
the cry, but when an outraged people
hold up to his ga his plundering
cousins, be will not carry out civil ser
vice reform by removing tbem, but
takes good care not to harm his bat
talion of Telemachuses. And as
this test proved the affected insanity
of Uiysafs of Ithaca to be a hum
bug, so it now proves the civil service
reform cry of our Long Branch Ulys
ses to be a humbug.
Our Ulysses is swsrn to protect the
treasury against the thieves and plun
derers whs are bankrupting the coun
try, as was bis old namesake to pro
tect Helen, yet when he comes along
with bis plow, under the pretense of
(fc. civil service reform, he always turns
it out of the furrow, when he comes
across one|of his stealing, office-hold
ing relations, and not one of bis plun
dering tools is banned.
• m ♦
Many of our readers having request
ed us to publish the Cincinnati plat
form, which was endorsed verbatim
by the national
tiou, we comply withihsFfegucst, and
it will be found io this issue. We
ask for it a careful perusal—every
democrat will find it good ground to
stand and fight upon ; it is io opposi
tion to the bayonet rule, tyrauny,
nepotism, and plundering of the
Grant administration—these are the
issues of the day, and upon these Hor
ace Greeley has been sound ever since
he traveled through the south and saw
the tyranny aud oppression that was
practised upon those people, and by \
which they are still .tortured. Mr.
Greeley from that moment, when in
Texas, cnmmenced writiug letters to
the Tribuue, exposing the wrongs and
outrages comruittrd by Grant's carpet
baggers.
On bis return he made a speech at
the Lingcolu club room in New York
in which (as we find on referring to
the newspaper report in the next
morning's journals) he used the fol
lowing just, rough and characteristic
words :
"I allude," said he, "to what are i
known as the thieving carpet-baggers ! I
(Applause.) The thieving carpet- I
baggers are a mournful fact ; they do .
exist there, and I have seen them. 1
They are felUws who crawled down <
south in the track of our armies, gen- i
erally at a very safe distance io the t
rear ; some of them on sutlers' wagons, \
some bearing cotton permits, some of i
them looking sharply to see what c
might turn up, and they remain there. 1
They at once ingratiated themselves (
with the blacks, simple, credulous, ig- t
norant men, very glad to welcome i
and to follow any whites who profess- t
ed to be the champion of their rights.
Seme of them got elected senators, ii
others representatives, some sheriffs, a
some judges, and so on. And there q
they stand, right in the public eye, u
stealingand plundering, many ofthem b
with both arms around negroes, and o
their hauiis in their rear pockets, see- u
itig if (bey cannot pick a paltry dollar a
out of them ; and the public looks at
them, does uot regard tbem as honest
northern men, but calls every carpet- t'
bagger a thief, which is not the truth "V
by good deal. But these fellows— a
many of them iotig-faeed, and with
eyca rolled up., are greatly counroni
for the education of the black*, aud
the sa'/Vation of their souls, (tireat
[ le/.ighter.] 'IAt us pray,' they soy !i
but they spell prav with no V ami,'
thus spelled. they obey the apostolic
injunction to 'pray without ceasing.' *
They got into the legislatures ; they j
went issuing state bond* : they pre
tended to use them in railroads ami
other improvements. Hut the im
provements were not made, ami the
bonds stuck in the issuer's tkeU.
That is the pity of it. * * * What
the southern people M® of US are three
thicrts, who reprisent the uorth to their
jaundiced vision, ami, representing it,
thev disgrace it. They are the great
oat obstacle to #>e triumph aud |*r
manrut ascomlaney ol republican prin
ciples at the south. ami aa such 1 de
nounce them." [Applause.]
Grati Brown, himself a Southerner,
both by birth ami life-long residence,
and an eyo-witneft of the abuses which
he denounces, corroborates lreeleys
testimony against the carpet baggoit
as follows:
"At tho south," ays Mr. Brown,
"the spirit of dominion has been the
svnonvm of federal authority in thr
shaping of all K<cal organisations opea
control of large bodies of dependents,
interference to sustain worthless offi
cials and ruthless violatiens of the
rights of persons. There the sulwlsnee
of entire sections has been plundered,
debts and mortgaging generation* of
labor contracted, taxes levied to the
point of confiscation—all done under
agencies upheld by the national gov
ernment."
*M> W K Go. —Col. Freeman of Mc-
Kcan county, and ouo of the Graut
•lectors from this state, has reign*!
that positiou, aud conies out for Gree
ley and Buckalew.
Hon. D. W. Vorbecs, ludiaun'si
talented democratic congressman, who,
before the Baltimore convention, was
opposed to the nomination of Greeley,
made an eloquent speech a few days
ago, at Torre llaute, in favor of Gree
ley ami Brown.
D. F. Glasamier, of Potter county
member of the radical stats commit
tee and ehairmau of the county com
mittee, sends in his resignation, and in
his own language, ays he is "from top
to toe for Greeley, Browu and Bucka
lew." v
Hon. Isaac Benson, another prouii
neut republican, of the same county,
has gone off iu the same direction.
Hon. Thomas Marshall, the elo
quent republican leader of Western
Penna., and, also Gen. Morehead, have
both pronounced for Greeley.
Hon. Austiu Blair, a Republican
member of Congress from
is on the stunip against Grant, and
his speeches are producing good eflect
in the west His comment upon the ad
ministration arc of a peculiarly telling
character, especially in relation to de
falcations on the part of the Federal
officials.
Six members of Grant State Central
'Committee of New York, have declar
ed for Greeley, making a nasty rent in
the present takers committee up there.
PBILAMXTIUA, July 20.—Galusha
A. Grow, as well as Andrew Curtin
and his Secretary, Coffey, are coming
home to stump for the Greeley tick
et.
Ask a radical, why, if be could swal
low Ben. Butler, the spoou thief, who
voted 150 time sfor Jeff Da vis, for pres
ident, in the Charleston Convention,
why a democrat should uot be able to
swallow Horace Greeley.
Very singular as it may seem,
many of the radicals are trying to
make out Horace Greeley a bad man.
They cai't succeed —the democrats
tried that for 30 years and failed.
We see it announced that Peme
roy's La Crosse Democrat has been
sold out, and now goes for Greeley.
This leaves only one bolliog paper,
Ihe Watchman, a religions sheet. We
think our neighhor will take the advice
of the REPORTER, and get over his
balk soon.
Tbe Morning Patriot speaking of
uch subjects remarks:
The ambition of certain nominal
democrats to be noticed_pd patted on
tbe back by ihc£ssr{ editors, is iust
now prelU-#rre*of gratification. The
of the Great Nepotist are
sadly in need of the indirect help af
forded them by such democrats as pre
fer the re-election of Grant to the
manly and patriotic sacrifice of their
prejudices in suppmt of the uominees
of the Democratic National Conven
tion.
The liberal republicans of the 16th
Illinoi's district, in their convention
resolved to support the democratic
nominee for congress.
Hon. Carl Shurz has gone to St.
Louis where he will make his first
speech. lie will then speak in North
Carolina, Pennsylvania, and New
York.
Sumner oa the Situation
His Opinion of the Contest in Penn
• sylvania.
Ex-Senator James J. Stewart ha*
written a letter about bis visit to the
politicians in Washington. He used
to be a straight republican, but now
goes for (Jreeley. What he says is of'
interest, and this is a part of his let
ter:
"The administration forces in Wash
ington are fearfully demoralized.
Cameron was over last week, and is in
great distress over the Pennsylvania
situation, having endeavored, as 1
know, to invoke the services of a good
friend of mine for a reconciliation with
Forney. He was told "It is too late."
Robeson, also, puffing in distress, ask
ed what could be done in heaven's
name to save Pennsylvania, and wan
told 'Nothing.' They ar* at their
wits' end about Pennsylvania, aud
have lost head as completely as they
did about consequential damages.
What will they do when Cover nor
Curtin arrives, as he will shortly, ami
takes the stuinp for (Jreeley and
firowu ? Colonel M'Clure assures me
this is a fact.
"I mentioned it to Mr. Sumner in an
interview I had with him on Fri lay,
and he exclaimed, 'That settles the '
question.' I had a long and frea in- j
lerchangc of opinion with Mr.gumner, ]
being an old friend, and I think suc
ceeded in removing some embarrass
ments he expressed as to coining for- ,
ward. (
Vote for Hartr&uftaud you vote for [

Vote for Buckalew and you vote for '
i statesman of spotless character.
The l'lntform. * * w 1
The Baltimore platform wa* made
at Cincinnati, hot it WM made to lie
offered to the Democracy, it was tiir
renunciation of Radicalism ty the Lib
oral Republicans. The Grant party,
one vear ago, determined to bolster
their sinking power with the bayonet.
They frame I a Ku-Klux law to make
(•raiit a military dictator. When
Butler offered it, Republicans revoltetl
at it, and refused to |MIS* it. Then
IGrant count to its aid with a special
j message, and made it a paitv queatiou.
Hut to quiet opposition, this proviso
was put into it: "That the provia
ions of this section shall not lw in force
after the end of the next regular see
siou of Congress." As soon as that sc*
siou came, the Radical slmgglo liegau
for the repeal of this proviso, so a* to
get military ooutrol of the Presiden
tial election. Hutler's dodge was to
call ths adjournment a recesa, and pre
leiid there was no end of the regular
session. This failed, aud then the at
tempt was made to repeal the proviso.
Thia struggle for s tree government
united all its friends. It was the re
volt of the Liberal Republicans agaiu. t
Radicalism ; it was their acceptance
of the aouml lkmociatic principles ot
free government now expressed in the
common platform. Muni o| theplauks
in it sre acceptable to all l)einocrats.
The expressions about the Fourteenth
and Fifteenth Amendments are taken
from the Minsulin and Virginia p'at
forms of former years, ami the I erin
sylvauia platform of last year. Pre
pared with an rye to its acceptance at
j Baltimore this platform has been ac
icepted as a matter of course.—Age.
An OmittotiHCirowl From Forney *
Pitw.
[From the Philadelphia Press of lM.li. J
l'erbatw President Grant has truer
fritnJa than the Tress, but we don't
know it. Perhaiw Pop# Cameron iuay
drive us out of the Republican party,
bet we don't think so. He can never,
at any rate, drive us out of our Re
publican convictions. These are a re
ligion to be followed even to the stake.
Aud now ooe word of business. The
Press is a news|aper. It wins by iu
worth. It is in uo one seuse a party
organ, though it is iu every sense a
radical, progressive Republican paper.
It lives ouly by iu enterprise, aud if
: it ever loses it is because it does unt
fear to attack public crime and error
even in its own party. It would sup
port Senator Cameron to morrow, in
any cause that was right, aud de
nounce Grant iu any cause that was
wrong, but the Press, like "any othe#
man," owes something to itself, aud a
great deal mo're to truth. So, gentle
men of the Grand Comiuanderv Mr.
Cameron, Mr. Russell Krrelt, sod the
rest —if you can do without us this
rear, why, "leave off you damnable fa
ces and begin."
Selling Oflires.
Why do uot the moralloned radical
journals, say something about the
sale of the Consulate at Callao, Peru,
for $2,500 cash, by Grant's brother
in-law, Lewis Dent, and of the ap
pointment by Grant of the person who
made the bargain with Dent and |>aid
him the money. This is a much more
important subject than nicotian taci
turnity, and we should be glad to know
what the respectable advocates of
Grantiare have to say about it
The buyer of this appointment was
ene William D. parrand. He brought
from Peru a present for Grant worth
S6OO, a fine carriage robe sent by Gen.
A. P. Hovey. Having delivered this
gift he proceeded to bargain with
brother-in-law Dent for the Callao
Consulate. He paid Dent the 12,500
about two months after Grant's inaug
uration, and soon after received his
commission from Grant and sailed for
Callao on June 9, 1869, to enter on
the functions of the office thus acquir
ed.
These are the simple facts of the
case, and the people would like to
know what high-toned journals, which
advocate Grant's rec foe lion solely be
cause he has got tha Republican nom
ination, think about keeping a broth
er-in-law as an office-broker around
the Executive Mansion.
"Doubt not, whatever scoffers may
say or doubters doubt, that there is a
moral goverumt-nl of the world. Tbert
is such moral government; and to an
. enlightened, instructed people, the
, fact should always be a source of lispa
and consolaliou in the darkest hour.
' When men in public life arc suspected
of being evil, and unjust laws are en
actsd and free institutions are men
aced with peril nod destruction, let it
be still remembered thai there is a
moral government of the world, and
that* people, true to iuelf, can rescue
ita freedom, its liberty aud iu rigbU
from the utmost extremity of danger.
I invoke your friendly and earnest aid
in the elections of the present year.
Our cause is just. We appeal to men
who have been classed with various
political organizations heretofore to
uphold our hands and bid us God
speed in tbe good work in whhh we
are engaged. If you 'render that as
sistance great gotid will ensue, but if
you permit the political managers to
betray you evil will result. 'Choose
ye this day, which cause you will sup
[•on—justice, and right, or degradation,
evil and wrong. As you choose, so
will resulU oomo to you in the future."

Letter Front Horaco Greeley.
[From tbe Hartford Tiiuss.]
The following is an extract from a
private letter to a gentleman in this
State. Though it was never intended
for publication, the gentleman to
whom it was addressed has deemed it
of sufficient interest aud importance to
justify its publication :
NEW Yor.K, June 11, 1872.
* * * 1 have no possible claim to
Democratic support aud never made
any. The Democrats will, of course,
be governed by a consideration of tbeir
own interest. It is nowise proper or
probable that they should tie influen
ced in making their decision by any
consideration personal to myself, and
if they oould be I do not desire it.
Henoe 1 have said nothing to any
Democrat unless he first addressed me.
And even then I have gone uo farther
lhau to say that if I should be elected
I would treat all those wbo supported
me alike, not asking whether thev bad
been in the past Republicans or l>*in
ocrats.

A. T. Stewart, who ha* beret ufow been

preference for Greeley by sending his

What lh<-n U a Democratic platform?

by a Ibrmoomtip o.nvntion in Naw York
t.ast work another convention, chosen and

oeretic. Since formar platform* of my
imrty have been detertuined by the high
j ost'lribunal.the National convention, and
recognised a* sound Democracy, I
! elude that the Cincinnati platform ia essen
lially Democratic and any principle declar

equally Democratic lltMice a Democratic

honest heart* should come forward and
lay on the common alter of our country all
past iolilical antagonism*. The two con

form of principle* on which hone*l Demo
crat. can unite with honest Republican, to
redeem the Republic from iminent danger
of del ruction, llvhevelng now a* in the
past that he i* a true Dwnofral who rocog
iii.e. the binding force of the National
Democratic coavention, I sacrifice neith
er honor, coni.tency, nr sound Drawers
j cy by giving my adhesion to the Cincinna
ti plalferm.
But lastly, who represent* the plat term ?
Horace Greeley. What have been hi* an
tecedent*? 1 know him a* a ferocious ene
my to the Democratic party when slavery
and the manner of prosecuting the war
were the dividing issue*. UU pen wrote
word* of Ore against any class or party
that opposed his view*. His party and
mine fought hard aad long over slavery
and the war. When, however, the farmer
was abolished by a successful issue of the
latter, I found him humane to the con
quered South. Since he has differed on
•vine thing, with my party hut hi* vigorous
pen teo ha* demanded pardon for the rrbel
iou* and peace to the whole country. Al
though an inveterate enemy U> nay party,
I always knew him through men I believ
ed, a* honest and pure. When the Sena
, torship of New York was within hi* reach,
j he sacrificed il to de a simple act of justice
—bailing thecluef rebel of the South.
, For a year or uioro be bas strenuous y
• opposed many of the measure* of tho ad
ministration. But what ia he now? H*
i I claim* still to he n Republican. Can I,
then, a Democrat, vote for Horace, a Re
i publican? ¥m. Why? Because the high
. est tribunal known to my party bas declar
, ed the principles on which he runs Drmo
[- erotic. 1 think there is still another rea
ton. Parties are organised to meet pros
( ent necessities. I read over the platforms
> ef fid. 60. 00 '64, 08, in vain to find those
| steady principle* that know no change.
There is but one local self-geeurninent
which tba platform of TJ secures forme.
But every succeeding platform is framed
' i to meet the issues of'the present, not th*
' pwsk On these Horace Greeley and my
party agree. Therefore I can endorse him
But still 1 cannot freely endorse bjoi, I can
' units with him in the platform of priori,
pies, think he is democratically sound, bul
I still I should prefer another man. Ah :
' there * thr rub, I am prejudiced, I dislike
: because 1 dislike him.
II Ho ha* been able to say bard tilings
I about any party. But 1 just recall now
i J that wc paid him back in equal coin. I
• am sure Lyman Trumbull would havedis
. pleased me less, bul then I merely dislike
. I Greeley because he turned his pen against
II us when be opposed ut. But now that the
! question, over which we fought, right or
1 wrong, are the accomplished facts of the
, | limes, and Liberal Republicans and Detn
{l ocrats mainly agree iu the measures that a
( > good administration should adopt, I glad
]ly cast nay .ballot for Greeley. His party
( ! and mine are now alike in principles,—
! alike in opposition to Urantism.
1 But one thing remains. Let the Liber
| al* tboqr ipp that they can divert them
selves of prejudice by pledging them
selves for Bucku'ew and olhar Democratic
nominations. Such a pledge I have from
' McClurc and other*. They are earnestly
1 proceeding Pa make it geed.
Therefore, I ana preparing to cast former
1 predjudico aside, vote aad speak for Hor>
1 acs, first, because ! think the two parties
substantially idontical In principles ; sec
ondly, because I yield to the superior wis
dom of the party coqrt *t Baltimore which
has hitherto determined my Democracy,
and thirdly, because I think Greeley emi
nently fit in intellect and character fer the
office. As between Grant, the exemplar of
public plunder, and Greeley, the philoso
pher, there can be one choice for an Hon
aat man.
