"Tim Oai.i.ed Jade Will WrscaV
I'nder this caption, our neighbor of the
tr'-W attempts a reply to our comments
lm his Harris' letter. "Let the galled jade
wince," was the language of Shakspcare.
Our ueiKhljor, iu quoting from tho great
bare", is s uufortuaate as he was in quoting
and commcutinir on tho letter of li is friend
Harris. We have no desire to press our
neighbor too closely against tho wall, but
certainly think he should be able to sec, by
(his time, that he Las seised the hot end jf
, ... , , , 11
I the less ho handles ,t, the
the poker, am!
better. We did not acknowledge that we
Misrepresented Mr. Harris ; but said, if lie
was really misrepresented, it was because
both he and his friend expressed themselves
in words which conveyed sentiments direct
ly tho reverse of what they intended. For
iustance, our neighbor attempted to excuse
Mr. Harris by saying he fust voted against
secession in Virginia, but when the majority
overruled him, ho not only was in its favor, i
but went into tho rebel ranks aud fought to
destroy this Uuion, aud this our neighbor
endorses by saying that it was doing "what
all true men did." In short, our neighbor
contends that Mr. Harris wss rigllt in at- i
tempting to destroy this L'niou because the j
majority of his State decided to do so. If
that is correct then Jen". Davis was no trai- ,
tor ---treason impossible, and the Constitu-,
tion not worth the paper on which it is
written. His friend had not even tho shal- ;
low excuse of fighting iu favor of what he
erroneously supposed to be right, but against '
liis own convictions of light. Our neighbor, t
hoivevcr, has a novel way of crawling out of j
n dilemma. He states facts and makes ar- j
guments for his opponents to suit himself, ;
aud then tries to knock them down, but
evcu thcu fails, as tho following, will show : 1
"Finding that tho Kadiculs of the North,
"persistently voted with tho rampant seces- ,
"sionists of South Carolina in the I'eacc
"Congress of lSGI.aud that nothing but j
"blood would satisfy them, lie accepted the
"position and as a true man, fought for
"what ho believed to be his rights.' j
This piece of history will, uo doubt, sur
pviso many intelligent readers who now hear ;
these astounding facts for the first time. But 1
as our neighbor contends that Southern ;
Democrats, who fought in the rebel ranks '
agniust the I'nion, are better Union men ;
than t lie Republicans who fought for the 1
Union, we Can readily excuse hiia for this
and other similar arguments. j
Is it not surprising that our neighbor will
never forgive Longstreet and other rebel ,
lenders, who Lave atknowleged their errors,
but i3 willing to hug to his bosom unre
pentant rebels, who, even now, persist that :
they were light in fighting for the lost '
cause. Hut wc have neither lime or space to
waste in contending against principles and
opinions so utterly indefensible. !
Gi:s. Giia.nt, on Saturday la6t, when ad- '
dressing tho Committco appointed by Con
gress to notify him of his election, said that
"his policy as President should be economy,
retrenchment, the honest collection of the ,
public revenue and tho payment of tho ini- j
tional debt ; and that it his appointees do'
not do their duty he shall promptly remove '
them." This is the true policy of the masses '
of ths Republican party, and that which
tho nation's . vital interests now demand.
Our public affairs havu been so shamelessly
and criminally admiuislcrcd under Johnson,
that cxtravagaucc and theft have become
the ruling idea with his subordinates. Gen.
Grant's policy will cut the Gordion knot of
our financial difiicullics tho great political
question of the country. Let us have econ
omy, retrenchment, the collection of the
revenue and the payment of the public debt
inaugurated, anil we shall have no diflicul
ties about returning to specie payments at
an early day. Grant evidently comprehends
the situation, and iu his quiet and deter
mined way means to redeem the nation
from its dilliculties.

J'ruyn, of Kow York, and Wilson, of Iowa,
.mtuio their appearance nt tho headquarters
of the army for the purpose- of presenting to
General Grant the ccrtiiicato of his election
as President of the Unitod States. The im-

was in his ollice at the timo of the arrival of
the committee, busily engaged in the per
formance of his olllcial duties. Whey wero
eoominvitcd into his presence, nnd after the
usual courtisies.
fjENATOJl MORTON, OP IXrflASA.,
?n behalf of the 'Committee, said :
"General.: The joiut committee appoint
ed by tho two Houses of Congress visit you
mornin t0 notif? J(u oftieially that you
i , elected President of to Cmted
States for the term of four years from tho 4th
of March next. The great majority of your
countrymen hail your election with delight,
while cvcn,those who did not support you
at the polls er.terta.n for you the highest
conti'tencc and respect.

'friends ff liberty throughout tho world, re-

full faith in your ability and virtue; enter
tain the highest ho-pes of your success, and
believe that during your administration the
work of rceoiistni:tvon will be completed
snd the wounds of civil war healed, and that
lour country wi I take a new departure in
; . f , .,,,
Senator Morton then liaiivlud the official
uotitkation to Geutsral Grant.
ItKl'LYOF THE 1'HKSIDENT KI.1XT.
General Grant said;
"I can promise the coHivittco that it will
bo my endeavor to call around me as as
sistants such ir.cn only as I think will carry
out the principles which you have said the
country desires to see successful economy,
rctienchincnt, luUutul collections ot too re
venue, and payment of the public, debt. It
i l siiouui tau in my iuss eooice, i suuu not
at any lime hesitate to make a second or
! or even a third trial, with the concurrence
; of the Senate, who have the confirming pow-
cr. i bt.oiiiti just, as soon remove one oi my
own appointees as the appointee of my pre
decessor. It would make no difference.
"There is one matter that I might possi
bly speak of here, aud that is the selection
of a Cabinet. I have always felt that it
would be rather indelicate to announce, or
even to consult with the gentlemen whom I
thought of inviting to positions in my Cabi
net, before the official declaration of the re
sult of tho election was made, although I
jiicauiiieu iuiii mere was no iiouot uuoui ;
what tho declaration would be. Hut, after !
consideration, I have come to the conclusion ;
tuac mere is not a man in tne country who
could be invited to a place in the Cabinet
without tho friends of some other gentleman
making an effort to secure the position ; not
that there would bo any objection to tho
party namsd, but that there would be others
w hom they had set their hearts upon having
in the place. I can tell that from the great
number of requests which come to me iu
writing and otherwise, for this particular
person or that one, for different sets and
delegations. If announced in Advance, ef
forts would be made to change my deter
mination, and, therefore, I have come to tho
conclusion not to announce whom I am go
ing to invite to seats in the Cabinet until I
send in their names to the Senate for con- '
iirmalion. If I say anything to them nbout 1
it, it will certainly not be more than two or !
threo days previous to sending in their
mimes. I think it well to make u public
declaration of this to the committee, so that
my intentions may be known.-'
Ceneral (irant spoke without any reserve,
and with the greatest fraukness and cour
tesy, ami his remarks were received by his
distinguished visitors with every maik of
interest and approbation. Altcrwards, Mr.
Pruyn, of tho committee, addressed the
General very briefly, to the effeet that while
the party with which he was identified dif
fered politically from the President elect,
he dusired to assure him that his administra
tion, in carrying out the principles which
he had mentioned, would havo their hearty
support nnd co-operation. Tho speeches
were delivered moro in a conversational than
in a formal, set manner, and the Decision
was one of ipiiet though most intense inter
est. The members of the staff of Cencral
Grant were present. About twenty gentle
men were present altogether, including the
coimnittee and stuff oflicers.

The committee, after leaving Cencral
Grant's Headquarters, proceeded to the Capi
tol and waited upon Speaker Colfax in his
reception room. They presented him with
the certificate of his election as Vice Presi
dent of the Senate, and then severally con
; gratulated him, to which friendly expres
sion he responded :
Gentlemen : Please convey to tho two
Houses of Congress my acceptance of the
'. office to which I havo been elected by the
; people of the United States, and assure them
1 that I shall endeavor to prove worthy of
this mark of confidence by fidelity to" my
principles and my duty.
The committee then withdrew. They
1 will make their report to both Houses of
Congress to-morrow.

GltAKT AND TUG Iil'.lTlU.ICAN PARTY. It
is stated on good authority that at a "recent
conversation between General Grant and a
piomiuunt politician, the General spoke very
frankly of tho efforts of certain of the Demo
cratic papers to produce a breach between
him anci the Republican party, and added
that any man who would undertake such a
tasK, alter Andrew Jobusoo a attemnt.

seems to understand the w hole drift of the

lemocrnt!c I'rnnds,
As one "contested election -case aftci n
other, in Wirtch Philadelphia 4a interested,
is tried, tho mora daraniniz i the proof that,
at tho October election, the Rewocratic :par.
ty perpetrated the most infamous frnudi
ever attempted by a political organisation.
Awaro thut tho result of the "Presidential
election depended upon th6 way our State
would go in October, n sehemo was devised
by the Democratic leaders of the country to
carry Philadelphia by a majority sufficiently
large to ovcrcomo the legal vote with which
it was estimated tho Republicans would
come to our city limits. Money-was raised
in largo amounts in other States, and num
bers of residents of New York and Haiti
more 'tho dregs of society in both .places
were brought here and sent from poll to poll
during the clay. Tho result was tho return
of most of the "Democratic nominees in the
city; but as the majorities in tho test of tho
State was larger than they anticipated, 3eu
erals llartranft and 'Caimf beH were chosen
or three years longer. Fortunately, how
ever, for tiie credit and welfare of our muni-
! 'Ot pwlity, we had ftlOnifin "League ond a 'caty
Hxoftmvevommirteo that were not to uc
intimidated by villninly ; and it was deter
mined that tho riglrt of t'oese alleged suc
cessful clmmpinns of Democracy to take and
holfl d'ico should bo contested. Arrange
ments were promptly made, and one contest
after another commenced. Two of these
cases havo been already settled satisfactorily
to the Republican candidates, ono by the
lecll nckwowlertgert guilt ot agangot "repea
ters,' and the other by ths withdrawing of
I all claims to the position by a nominee w ho
j had too much honor to carry out projects of
I his party, when he knew they were found
j ed on wrong and injustice. The evidence
j in the Thayer vs. Greenback case tiss proved
the glaring frauds, while no intelligent, con
I scicntious man can fct-sitato iu coming to
the conclusion that the testimony thus far
elicited in the Congressional and municipal
! contests now pending has been sufficiently
I strong to show that the Republican ticket
! was elected in Octolcr.
I These exposures of crime rod infamy
! ma'ke it evident that tho Legislature must
' enact some law which will prevent a repeti
j tion of theso acts of rascality, and tho peo
ple of Philadelphia dvniund the passage of
I a registry law at the present session. A
; joint committee of the Senate and House
iV.ow has the subject under consideration,
I and our citizens should so express their
views !y petition and otherwise as will in
' sure prompt attention to their absolute re
' quirements. Without such a law our city
j and our State will soon iie in possession of
: these politician ruffians aud defrauders.

j For the past year or two, Carbon, Luzerne,
j Monroe, Northampton, Schuylkill, Rucks,
' aud Lehigh counties have been infested with
' what was supposed to be a gang of horse
thieves. Many valuable hoises havo been
. stolen, as well as carriages, buffalo robes,
etc., and in but few instances recovered
: again by their owners. Those returned were
brought back by the offer of a liberal re
ward, which was generally pocketed by some
interested party iu the gang. About two
months ago two Iiorscs anil a wagon
Bt0len at KeielsviHe. Bucks couutv.
were
iiiiu
,v,.r,. nrinted nnd sent out all over the couu-
try, ollcnnga reward for the recovery of
thief snd property, but no trace was obtain
i etl until about ten days ago a detective olli- i
! cer in Heading, who had heard of the theft, '
accidentally overheard a remark made by
! two parties in conversation, that "the Itei
! gcNvillc hoises went to Huleton."
j The Detective started at once for the lnt-
ter place, and in a livery stable there lin
found the horses. He questioned the attend
! ant ns to how the hoises came there, and
j was told that the proprietor, Jacob Itoth,
j brought them there. Koth was found and
! questioned, but could give no satisfactory
i auswer as to how he came in possession of
the animals, when he was placed under ar
; rest anil taken to Doylestown, locked up in
: jail and subsequently released on 3,000 bail.
; About the same time a suspicious character
; was arrested at llazleton, who, becoming
alarmed, divulged the w hole secret of the
existence of a formidable gang of thieves.

! still to another, when the animal would, be ,
: sold to some unsophisticated individual, j
I who, if ever called upou for the horse by the j
owner, of course could uot give the name of
the parly of whom he bought it. Carriages
l were taken to ua isolated point near Ila.lc
i ton, where all the appliances were ready,
j and they received a complete overhauling in
painting and trimming, making as complete
a change thut the owner himself could not
recognize his property. Kobts and whips
i were also manipulated to avoid recognition,
i and thus their nefaiious work was carried on.
j A largo amount of property has thus been
stolen and disposed of, ami no doubt the
I profits of the gang were quite large.

i one of the most respectable citizens of the

; went into t tie livery atitt nurse ocuey ousi

ceiving fresh horses from 'down country,' as
he expressed it, which were disposed of as
.soon us opportunity otl'ered. These were
cvideuily tho fruits ot hi colleagues' labors
i iu the lower counties.
