WKDNBSDAY HORNING, OCT. 3o, 1879. GRANT AND HI8 FUOLEMAN TAKE TO POETRY. It ti laid that Grant, when In conversation with his chief Fugleman, oa the returns of tho lato State Elections, In which waa not all satisfaction, went off iu the following strain. " i ' I wO, give me eoeuee uf blood and carnage The popular will, Is wore to manage Or scenes amidst tbe dead and dying, 1fc ' ' ' And not oa some men rvlylng. Sdc what we've done fur the eld Korlh Ptate; ' They give us back re r en go ami hate. I would to God 1 had stayed at tanning, Aud thereby been eared from a nation a dnmning, For, from all you've said, yuu must srmember, Thifti'l Dotnt that way fur next - v - "iliild, your higWj--, iu tlie returns of Maine there a consolation. Yes, I know, and our en use Is lost hy that, same computation. 1 Just give me four years more of public ruling, ' And with my will there shall be no fooling. rour years more nngenng in tne puh'le mauiury, I'll lay well my plans and aot at leisure. Then with my soldiers and tbe peoplc'a weal lb witi be obeyed, H 1 keep uv bealtn. Then spake again the Fugleman, aad said. "lou snail nave ir, niavter, or t u ue nuiuuerea with the dead. . i And I swear, by the prestige of my Clan, You shall get the party vote to the lust man. 1 care not wbut you u luard ot late, Y'U will get all the loyal of my State. I I know we have presented sides quite too many. I Hut I'll male that all right in Pcuu-vlvania. What odds if they should prove to be oo agon, - I ni I fix them all, or my num., s not tarter. There's I)un, not Don Juan, that famous rider, Hut he that stiettcrkuown as the legislative briberi He's a man of fire, as the color of bis hair dcootca, And to buying men, part of his time devote t But not to paying, as some mcwhers know. In things, that happened about twu years ago, . And in that very same transaction I was badly beat by tbat other railroad faetlnn. At that time, we bad to ohango one in tho Xatiou's Keuata. t thonght It wise to consult that railroad magnate. I talked long to him, but all ia vain, 1 told uim it waa too sadly lain Tbat one need of that buJj was a man In things divine a teacher, And bone would suit the place so well as tho Alle ghany preacher. Turn ulked around a a bile, and then he did begin. Aud aaid, no could nut be taduoed to cuter in y To any si t-up schema or plot That would be prejudicial to one John Sdott, 1 Who had been faithful, aud served thorn with devotion, - , And to that very place bad a somewhat aspiring notion. At this juncture I began to luck about '! To find a hole tha I could crawl out, 1 f As things looked, I d on myself been heaping odiuai. Then I tried the one cent tax upon petroleum; So, In (llrard House, in room forty-two. A hill was drawn just by a few, Who wem expert in words and knew Ihotr meaning. By no means young adepts in legislative sebeeming. In words 'twaa guarded well,agniut all Roorback), Aud for our stamps we would depood on Phila delphia drawbacks. The bill wt'tit through the House without detention, And in the Senate there was little or no ooutcution; I felt exultant, I must here tell, ' Por things were moving on tike a marriage bell?, When a sudden change came o're the M joh ; I don't mean tbat ever oh an gin g plant, But he that's fixed R. H. member ot our Sture Senate. At this sudden turn I felt inclined to tremble, W hen I found tbe Jig was up with our poor Komble, I was near being squeescd 'twren them two Scolts. "f is all passed, it's a long lane that has no turning, I'll caUb that Irwiu, should I over find bim running. Enough of this, let ui get nearer to the point, Or all our plans, may get bad'y out ol joint. Now you hnve measured ell from your own dia gram If you please, let me lay down the programme. I would not hesitate to do It ir I IhcMiRht in truth you would pursue it. But since to lead your mind is bent, You may mark it out, with my conrcnt. Well, Lion wilt aid ns if we bun solicit, And in our come down their it ao d licit Then in my State Ml speak for strong protection, I tbiuk 1 should, to aid in our Eicolumj Further on wo will talk free trade, You know mighty things with that's been made, And in most sections ol the Weit I think it suits the people bed And as we gi t down in tbe South, There we'll speak merely from tho mouth; With their fool notions of that lost cause We must sp-nk careful, to get out applause; And when we get up among the Yanks, Whore of late they've cut some quite queer pranks, There all forts of talk will ba too Ibm, To get their voire we must bring down the tlnj If ue bare not the tin wo will u-c shinpWcrs, And lay snothcr tax on our excise devils and Fust Masters, Now for this Fugleman a wirj I'll say, In onler that be may get fair nlay. You would Ibink to bear this Loro talk That in none but honeat paths he'd walk. But with all his pleading fur the public wual, You will find It all intended for his own LochieU Another word I would say to both. And I think it will abound ia truth, That some where there must be sad abuse, Or men would uot come here to tight them from the Hussies. And uow just a word, to show the author 'a not - been erring. He'd bare you read, and digwt well, that report oi ui new I lrwm. Another Heiieli.iom. Something liko n rebi'Iiion hits broken out among tho boys itt tbe Anniipolis Navul Acadoniy. Tbo aociul cquttlity fanut ics have forced a negro into tho innti tutiun, and' tho white boys Im red bim liko other now vomera. This tho d ur key has pocketed as nn insult to bis area!

They would not bo held within tho pulo of tho Repub lican parly when they saw its motives wero dishonest'and corrupt, and its intentions, as manifested by legisla tive enactments and official patronage, were not for the good of our country and ihe progress of our freo institu tions, but for' tho perpetuation of party power, to enablo that party to continno on through a second Presi dential term of national robbery and wilful and glaring violations of thoso laws which should be maintained and thrown urotind us as a national safe guard. They are honest In their mo tives, bocauso when aclivo mombers belonging to tho parly iu power they could have been the recipients of otli cial patronage and Presidential pref erences. And whoro they refused it, (See Plcusanton's exposision of Grant's attempt lo steal St. Domingo), they voluntarily, and without any mone tary or lfih motive, evacuated their old camp and turned their gun upon ils fortifications, because they well knew buhind those walls was lurking tlio most dangerous enemy American liberty and independence ever had.

Tho Cincinnati Convciiliouists took a wise, deliberate and comprehensive view of the condition of the political horizon nnd the relutivu position of each parly lo the other.
