Butler and Grant
We have small faith in the resur
rection business in politics. The ee
-cnce of the present pel it >cal revolu
tiou is the cordial agreement of men
who have heretofore been vehement
opponents to ignore past differences,
which the logic of event* has aettied,
and unite on coiumou ground for the
present and pressing needs of the
Country. To men who thus unite it
makes no difference what, iu the days
-if their honest, heated controversy on
points now settled, cither may have
-aid about the other. But the Offiee
holden think it doe? ; wherefore we j
once more commend to their thirsty
lip* a few drop* more oi their own
medicine :

"While the army, waa holding Lee
in Richmond and Petersburg, I found |
the latter was receiving supplies either
through the inefficiency or with the j
permission of the officer selected by j
Gen. Butler for the command of Nor-!

ISC6 [addressed to Andrew Johnson i
and asking for the appointment of
Gen. Geo. 11. Gordon, whom Grant
*ent to relieve Butler at Norfolk, for
the reason as Grant has declared, "he ;
was honest, and no'persuasion could 1
make him swerve from duty."]

graves of dead heroes wtre thicker

than gold—then and in that solemn
honr.with a heart harder than famine
and more fell than the pitilea* ocean,
Gen. B. F. Butler was toyiog with j
human vultures, seeking in a beTl-born
traffic the tempter's gold. Dead to
the cryulhis country's mourners,indif

so the truth must not be told. We
are, I fear to try the experiment again
that we did with Johnson, t. e., nomin

fortune, because it will put io a man

"We want four vears more of
Grant." [Speech at Milford, Mas-*.]
At the radical meeting, at Belie
i'orite, on Friday evening, Judge Linn I
made a speech, in which he denied j
the report that he was in favor of I
Greeley and Buckalcw. The Ly-1
coming Standard, of last week, says it
can prove that Judge Linn, a short
time ago, in a hotel at Lock Haven,
while in conversation with other gen
tlemen, spoke his preference for
Greeley and Buckalew, and this gave
rise to report. The Judge evidrntly
liud a pressure brought upon him
since that which he could not withstand
and turned against the biddings of his
own conscience, and went for the rad
nominees.
In his Belleionte speech, the Judge
paid a high tribute to Andrew G. Cur
tin, funlike other ratjs who are mean
ly abusing him,) and almost shed tears
over the "great war governor's" new
departure; which shows that the
Judge, if following his own inclina
tions, would like to follow Gov. C'ur
tin, and had actually got on the trail
when the radical pressure overtook ,
him.
During the radical torch-light dem
onstration, at Bellefonte, on last Fri
day evening, Rev. Wj lie, Presbyteri
an minister of that town, had his
house illuminated, to show his sympa
thies with the purposes of the demon
stration of that evening, namly : ra
dical ill-will against Andrew G. Cur
tin, l>ecause he choose to join thp ranks
of honest men in favor of boncMv anil
reform, against llsrlranlt and the
Cameron-ting robbci*. flint Rev..
Mr. Wv'.iehad the uudotibtcd light to ;
show his preferences tor the ring
thieve* ami illuminate the Presbyteri
an patronage in honor of thorn, wo do
uc>t deny ; but whether it is proper for
him, a# a mhUter of the gospel, to j
Intake himself thus conspicuous in |*d-|
itic*, and on the side too that has the j
back of almost every lion oat man turu-j
Oil up>ll it, tvo do quCMiwi. It i- just
as propor tor hint to take the stunip
for llaitranft and defend Kvau- and
Cameron and the other robbers, a* to
illumiuatc bis bouse in honor of them.
We Airther question ahetber.it was be
coming in bim to show hia hand iu a
demonstration of spite against his dis
tinguished townsman and neighbor, A.
Q. Curt in, upon his arrival hotuo, aud
after an absence of three year*, iu a
foreign land, where he served as
American minister with honor aud
credit.
The radical demonstration on Fri
day eveuing would never have been
held, had Mr. Curtincluug to and de
feuded the corruptions of the Hart
rauft Cameron ring, and because he
choose to stand upon the aids of hon
esty, and oppose the gang which is
plundering the comiuouwealih of
IVnusvlvania, was this demonstration
[of spite gotten up. —It was bred iu
spite and ill-will, and wc are sorry that
a minister of the Gospel, whom we al
ways hold in Cfteem, should h*lp to
cover over corruption by the dau'e
of an illumination, gotten up by a ca
bal of selfish politician* who are at
tempting to stab Andrew G. Curtin.

had the following note :

It is said that wheu a man is drunk

1 Fxankikthai, Sept 10th. 1872— Fkkp.
, K.CKTZ—Dear Sir :—We received the Re
porter end arc thankful to you. We were
rejoiced to learn from it, ihst you all get
along w<*ll. Here, out in Europe, we
have pretty lively time* among*: our poli
tician*, just as well, as you have in there.
The cause of it is. the great event of the
three Emperors of Europe (Prussia, Aus
tria, Germany, ) arc meeting at Berlin now,
and the papers are (till of it; we are goiag
to have peace now in Kurope, for ome
time to come, and have nothing to fear
from other poweis. France, (particularly
will not comnienco another war, as she
must be satisfied, with us
and before she can carry out her
revenge, there will be an other Presiden
tial election.
Xcit wt-tk, the wwldirjj of brother Abe
it coming off, and wih that you could be
present then. We are (joing to have a
pretty big wedding, more than GO couple
are invited. You may imagine what a
lively time there will be : if aowe of my
friends at Milroy, could only be har*—es
pecially our good old friends James Krise,
Rcbcrt and Hugh Taylor. I am sure,
they would be well pleased, with our Ger
man girl* out here.
The wheat crop- corn and barley Loo—
a pretty good one this year, although tbe
mice injured it in some parts.
We also have prospect- for a good pota
to crop
Our grain dealers are paying here now
for wheat $6, rye $4. barley $4, oats $3.
That means for 200 pounds, or (lor about
3| busbals such as you get there.; Butter
is worth .'SO cts. per pound, eggs lOcts. per
dozen.
Your paper, tbe Reporter, it appears
, to me, is enlarged again, it seems so big,
. but I didn't ee many advertisement* from
Milroy in it I tell you Mr. Kurt/., that
through our liberal advertising in tbe Ko
i porter, when we were at Milroy, we
gained largely through it—and its influ
ence brought ut such nice custem—often
1 peeple came to our stsfro and said they
j saw our name in tbe paper, otherwise they
would not have known anything of us,
anJ thereby wc secured sucn a fine busi

A Mother's Misery
An unusually distressing case has
come beforo one of the New York
courts. A Mrs. DcVries was arrested
on a charge of attempting to abduct j
her own child, and was bound over to
keep the neaco towards the child and j
father, The story of her wrongs is a
very short one, though it extends
through a period ot eight vears.
Eight years ago she gave birth to a
child, and during her sickneas Mr. De-
Vries had her sent to Black well's
Island as insane* At tbe end of a
year she came out of the asylum,
found her husband divorced from her
and murried again. The poor woman
went to work in a shop and worked
for seven years. Some time since Mr.
DeVries's second wife died, and be
was about to marry agaiu. The moth
er, yerning for her little girl, weut to
Mr. DeVries's house to ask for her.
She found her alone, aud was caress
ing her when the father came home.
He dragged the daughter away and
caused the arrest of the mother. She
will make a last effort to have the case
reopened before tbe court.
There are now twenty-five murder
ers in the Tombs, New York, await
ing trial.
A citizen in Alabama has a bantam
chicken which catches rats aud holds
them until they are killed.

Mi Crci'leCs lleoonl
We nr. advocating Mr. (treelev s
election to the presidency niton the
p:incit\les of the Cincinnat platform,
reaffirmed by the Baltimore con von
vent ion, and 10 long as lie i/right now
it i a matter of no consequence what
he tuny have said in pat controver
sies. As Gov Hendricks, of Indi
ana. *vw: "We have turned our
lurks oil the peat; we land in the
present, and look to the future. Ihe
|Ut is lost to us—the future i* ours ;
let us inke that ftiturc a glorious
one.*
Wc believe with ><natot Scbui*
that "if Mr. Greeley >s elected, as he
ill U> by au overwhelming majority,
ho will select from all parties such a j
cabinet, aud draw around bitu such
men as the nation will place entire j
and implicit faith in. Horace liree
ley will not bo piesident over a jurt
of the country, the creature of a cli
que, automaton of a cabal. He w ill be
the president of the American people
and mdivisible."
The southernn people would have
the most reason to complain of Mr.
I tireeley if he were to be judged now
' by what he said years ago, but they
are no* the most zealous in lus sup
port, and if they can afford to let by
goues be by-gones," surely we of the
northern The Baltimore Sun, one
of the most judicious and most influ
ential expouents of &oulhcrn sentiment
says :
Some very vigorous efforts have
been made to convict Mr. tireeley
of inconsistency, and to excite section
al and party prejudice against him by
republishing what purport to be arti
cles from old files of lue New \ork
Tribuuc, coutainiug very bitter utter
ances upon political questions ol the
day, aud particularly upon the subject
of slavery aud the south. Perhaps it
it considered that this it but a fair
set off agaiust the inconsistency charg
ed upon General Graut, iu his having
formerly voted for Mr. Buchanan, ana
his alleged declaration that be did not
deaire to use his sword iu any war for
the abolition of slavery. Ajmrt, how
ever, from the question of inconsisten
cy, the attempt to make an editor of u
public journal responsible for every
ar'.iclo and paragraph iu it, when he
was not the managing editor of the pa
! per, but only one out of a dozen edi.
' the most able and conspicious no
doubt but still one of many, is unjust
in the extreme, aud as absurd as it is
unjust. That Mr. Greeley has been
. au abolitionist from the beginning, aud
i has expressed himself in strong lan
guage about the institution of slavery,
i is undiniable, though wo will engage
,j to match his strongest expre-sion on
! that topic with the well-known sent!-
' ments of Washington, Jefferson, Mar
shall and other leading Virginia iu up
on tho same subject. It must also be
evident that a man working iu party
traces may be complied to modify
himself in some measure to conform
to the requirement* of his position, and
we can only judge liiiu fairly when lie
stands out from his surroundings, and
without trammel* of any kind speaks
for himself.
General Butler, though votiug ix-
Uy times for Jefferson I>avis iu the
; Charleston convention, i* admitted by
' his preseut political associates to Ui
1 free from jwrsonal and individual re
sponsibility for what he did iu party
1 traces, and yet Mr. Greeley is to lie
held responsible not only for what he
may have said in the same relations,
i but for all that his numerous associ
ates said in a daily press, and from
which he was often absent for months.
The fair way is to look upon Mr.
Greeley, not the New York Tribune,
; as before the public for the presidency
and to take him when he stands out
from his paper, segregated and in his
owu individuality, as in his letter of
acceptance, expounding the principles
ofthe Cincinnati platform. Wc must
also bear in mind that Mr. Greeley,
even when working iu party traces,
has repeatedly broken through them,
and that in times of great sectional
and party excitement, when it requir
ed not only rare independence but ex
alted moral courage to cast off aectiou
al and party trammels, aud wbeu he
had few associates iu so doing. On
these occasions he has proved as re
gardless of his own interests or of
those of partv as wheu, in his famous
article of November, 27, 1866, on
"The True Basis of Beconstruction,"
be sacrificed bis prospects for a United
States senatorship iu behalf of princi
ple and humanity, Before this arti
cle appeared, and as early as April,
1865, the day after Gen. Lee's surren
der at Appomattox, Mr. Greeley pub
lished a leading article in the Tribune,
headed "Magnanimity in Triumph,"
in which, against the fierce passions of
of the hour, he expressed himself as
follows:
We had hoped to print herewith the
president's proclamation of amnesty
and oblivion to the partisans of the
baffled rebellion, and wc do not yet
despare of receiving it before we go to
press, though no portion of it has yet
been received.
"We hear men say, 'Yes forgive
that great mass of those who have
been misled into rebellion, but punish
the leaders as they deserve,' But who
can accurately draw the line between
leaders and followers in the premises ?
By what test shall they be discrimina
ted ? Some of the archplotters of dis
union have neve r taken up arms in its
sup|tort, nor have they held any ira
j nortant post in the civil service.
: Where is your touchstone of leader
ship? Wc know none."
On tbe next day he published an ar
ticle on "Reconstruction," beginning
with a reply to the question of an Eng
lishman. "What will you do with i
your Poland after you nfinll have con
quered it ?" We will li lk- rate the j
Poles." In tbe article above refered >
to of November 27, on ''The Basis of'
Reconstruction." which he |>erei*tod
in writing, although warned by his
friends that it would lose him bis elec
tion to the United States senate, which
the legislature then chosen was under
stood to favor, was the following;
That I have long held the main •
foundations of a genuine, euduring re-1
settlement of our disturbed and up- i
turned national structure to he uni
versal amnesty and impartial suffrage,
must be tolerably well known. It on
ly remains to he said that I commend
them not as reciprocal concessions, but
as common benefits. I trust our great
differences are to be composed and en
ded by no grudging, higgling compro
mise—no peanut dicker. It is essential
to the north that the south should
be thoroughly tranquilized and reas
sured ; it is essential to the south that
her principal body of agricultural la
borers—her peanut cultivators-should
live and labor iu contentment based
on perfect trust that their rights of
person and property —their earnings
and their homes—are as secure and
inviolate as the proudest magnate in
the land. There is no northern, no
southern interest in the premises, but
a common interest of the whole Arner-
ican people.
* * * I am for univer
sal amnesty —so far as immunity from
fear of punishment or confiscation is
concerned-—even though impartial
suffrage should for the present be resis
ted nml defeated.

„ have ever appeared in the Tribune,
j and which there U uo proof ever pro

and made the Now York Tribune a

Educations I
UWAWWAW.
Perhaps no branch of study Is our can*,
mon school* is so bsrren of u*Arl r#sulU|
as that of Grammar. The evil prs.-snu it- -
elfin tw<> way*, either pupil* do not ac
quire a -ulicicni knowledge f the subject,
or fsil to apply practically that knowledge
after it it acquired- There arc everal
thing- which account for want of tborotigh
ne*s in grammar on the part of pupils,
urh its poor attendance, Inefficient in
struction*. fco., but the principal causa is,
probably, the want of a suitable teat book
for the grade of our school. Such an opin
ion may seem strange when we remember,
that there is an almost infinite variety of
book* on this and all other tubjscts. Yet
it i* true, nevertheless. The best books'
are not always selected. Those adoptad
are generally too difficult In many mil
ed school* we find "Bullions Analytical
Grammar." or others equally cemplri;
and pupils fritter away their time la going
over the first half of the book frwn term to
term, and nevqj get to the back part where
there it made a practicable application of
rules in correcting "false syntax." What
use is there in committing the definition*, i
" a noun it the name of any person, pigpe,
or thing." "a verb it a word which expres
ses action, paeion or being," Ac , if pu-j
pils never get beyond this ?
There <hould be adopted for our common
schools some simple book, freo, a* far M
possible, from a multitude of "notea," ao
that there would be some hope# of getting
through and leaving soma time for review
and n practical application of principle*
and rules. During the short time boys and
girls of the rural district* are uaually at
tending school it is ini|>OMiblc fer them to
ransack huge volumes on grammar.
Smith'* old "Knglish Oraramar," which
has been croieJ cut of existence eta
school book, would be better a4tp tp d (o
our school* than most of the later work*, j
Some of Bullion a, smaller and easier edi-'
tions would answer very well. Neither is
there much gained by placing in the hands,
of pupil* tho-o primmer* called, '"First,
Lesson in Grammar." If little boy* and
girls are to lake up the subject as a regular
study, they should be taugb] orally; but
text books should not be placed into their!
hands at too early a period, and one book
properly arranged would do for the whole
school. Let us have a simple work on this!
subject; if any pupils of a school should
master it and would wish to acquire a more
comprehensive knowledge of grammar,'
there is then time togratify their ambition. I
After one has laid n good foundation and
ha* a desire to build higher, he will find
material plenty to carry on hi* work.
The other evil I montioned alone, it that
pupils often fail to make a practical usa of
their knowledge of grammar in eouvcrsa
tion or composition. Certainly, ifone does
not apply iiis knowledge of grammatical
principles, he or she might just as well be
entirely ignorant on the subject. I have
heard scholars, who, by the way, were
able to correct most of the examples of
"falso syntax, ' use such expressions as
these: "I seen him," "I tawed a horae,"
"ho has wcut to town." But ii i* needless
to multiply examples, Go among a group
of boys at play and you can collect any
| amount. Teacher* should take particular
! pain* to correct such expressions. They
should be perfect models themselves. In
I deed, the best school to lorni good gram
marians arc the home circles whore cor
! rect language is used and the society ofed
, ncated people. But how can teachers be
| expected to accomplish much good in thi*
respect if they are themselves in the habit
of using slang ? That one, who wrote to a
director, "our coal is naarly all no more,
ploase bring us some mora," could hardly
be considered an infallible guide.
A competent instructor, who feels the re.
sponsib'.lity of his position, will teach
grammar all lha time—in school and out of
school, whether it be in class or on the
play-ground.

The Louisville Courier-Journal
f gives a samide of the delegates to
■. Grauts side show of strai 'btoiit. ;
Yesterday Bear the hour
of 10 o'clock, the First rtreet police
station was honored by (he arrival of
a distinguished guest, In the person of
Colonel E. N. Hill, chairman of the'
•UUgatiou I'rotn the State of Arkansas
to the lllantou Duncan Conrcn'mu in
this city. This arrest created consid
erable stir iu this city, especially
among the delegates It was excited
ily oanvaracd by the latter, and various
'plane suggested for Hill's release, but
none were carried into effect. He wa>
arrested on a charge of obtaining
moitev uuder false pretense.
Last night a reportvi noticing the
name of A. Cologrore, from Little
Hock, Arkansas, ou llie hotel register
alongside cf that of Uolooel Hill,
fouud Mr. iu the crowd,
and took him quietly to one side.
"Mr. Colegrove," said the reporter,
"something ought to be done for Cal.
Hill. He ougjit not lo be kept iu
prison to-night. It will be the talk
of the town to-morrow , and will injure
our cause very much."
The word "our" had been inten
tionally emphasised, and Mr.Colgrove
became communicative at once. Dur
ing the conversation the reporter adroit
ly convoyed the impression tl)at I was'
a Republican.
"How long have you been a He
publican ? asked Colgrove in a low
tone.
"Ever since I knew anything about
politics," was (he reply, with w mental
explanation that the word "Republi
can" war to Lc taken in literal sense.
"Have you quit being a Republi
can*" was the next question, iu a still
lower tone.
"No, and never expect to."
"Well," aaid Colgrove—and bis
voice sunk to a whisper, while his lipa
sought a closer acquaintance with
the left ear of the listeuer—"l can say
the same thing. I never voted a dem
cratic ticket in my life. It is a tick
lish thing for me to come as a delegate
to a democratic convention. I can't
get used to it, and I have been on the
point of exposing myself half a dozen
limes since I have beejj here. It's
hard to talk right, aud I have to keep
a close watch on tnr tongue to keep
from exposing myself.
Another delegate, R. K. Cummings
of Hhclby county, Ohio, being dunned
for a hotel bill, acknowledged bis im
pecunious condition, but added, "I can
get the money of Riant; I used to go
to school with him ; and if I don't get
it of hitu, I cau go up to the postoftice
or custom-house anil get it.
