They are the Great Blood Purifier and a Lire-giving Principle, a Per. feet Renovator and Invigorator of the System, carrying off all poisonous matter, and restoring the blood to a healthy pondition, enriching it, refreshing and invigorating both mind and body. They . are easy of administration, prompt in their action, certain in their results, safe and reliable in all forms of disease. No Person can take these Bitters accord. log to directions, and remain long unwell, provided their bones are not destroyed by mineral poison smother means, and the vital organs wasted beyond the point of repair. Dyspepsia or Indigestion. Headache ' Pain in the Shoulders, Coughs, Tightness of the Chest, Dizzi ness, Sour Eructations orthe Stomach, Bad Taste in the Mouth, Bilious Attacks, Palpitation of the Heart, In flammation of the Lungs, Pain in the regions of the Kid neys, and a hundred other painful symptoms, are the off springs of Dyspepsia. In these complaints it has no equal, and one bottle will prove a better guarantee of its merits than a lengthy advertisement. For Female Complaints, in young or old, mar- ried or single, at the dawn of womanhood, or the turn of life, these Tonic Bitters display so decided an influence that a marked improvement is soon perceptible. For Intlanmintory and Chronic Risen-. matisco and Gout, Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Bilious, Remittent and Intermittent Fevers,Diseases of the Blood, Liver, Kidneys and Bladder, these Bitters have been most successful. Such Diseases are caused by Vitiated Blood, which is generally produced by derangement of the Di gestive Org.s. They are a Gentle Purgative as well as a Tonic, possessing also the peculisr merit of acting . as a powerful agent in relieving Congestion or Inflammation on the Liver and Visceral Organs, and in Bilious Diseases. For Skin Diseases, Eruptions, Tetter, Salt- Rheum, Blotches, Spots, Pimples ' Pustules, Boils, Car buncles, Ringworms, Scald•llead,Sore Eyes. Erysipelas, Itch, Scurfs, Discolorations of the Skin, Humors and Diseases of the Skin, of whatever name or nature... literally dug up and carried out of the system in a short time by the use of these Bitters. One bottle in such cases will convince the most incredulous of their curative effects. Cleanse the Vitiated Blood whenever you find its impurities bursting through the skin in Pimples, Eruptions, or s Sores ; cleanse it when you find it ob. structed and sluggish in the veins : cleanse it when it is foul ; your feelings will tell you when. Keep the blood pure, and the health of the system will follow. Grateful thousands proclaim VINRGAR MT- Tens the most wonderful Invigorant that ever sustained thessinking system. Pin, Tape, and other Worms, lurking in the system of so many thousands, are effectually . destroyed .d removed. Says a distinguished physiologist There is scarcely an individual upon the face of the earths whose body is exempt from tine presence of worms. It is not upon the healthy elements of the body that worms exist, but upon the diseased humors and slimy deposits that breed these living monsters of disease. No system of Medicine, no verinifuges, no anthelminitics, will free the system from worms like these Bitten. • Mechanical Diseases. Persons engaged in Paints and Minerals, such as Plumbers, Type-setters, Goldbeaters, and Miners, as they advance in life, will be subject to paralysis of the Dowels. To guard against this take a dose of WALKRIt'S VINEGAR BITTERS once or twice a week, as a Preventive. Bilious, Remittent, and Intermittent Fevers, which are so prevalent in the valleys of our great rivers throughout the United States, especially those of the Mississippi, Ohio, hlissouri, Illinois, Ten nessee, Cuinberland, Arkansas, Red, Colorado, Brazos, Rio Grande, Pearl, Alabama, Mobile, Savannah,Roanoke, James, and many others, with their vast tributaries, throughout our entire country during the Summer and Autumn, and remarkably so during seasons of unusual heat and dryness, are invariably accompanied by exten sive derangements of the stomach and liver, and other abdominal viscera. There are always more or less ob structions of the liver, a weakness and irritable state of the stomach, and peat torpor of the bowels, being -clogged up with vitiated accumulations. In their treat ment, a purgative. exerting a powerful influence upon these various organs, is essentially necessary. There is no cathartic for the purpose equal to DR. J. WALKRR'S VIRIWAR BITTISRS, 15 they mill !Tardily rettlOye lbe dark-colored viscid matter with which the bowels are loaded, at the same time stimulating the secretions of the liver, and generally restoring the healthy functions of the di gc s r ti cilh o is a r . or King's Evil, While Swellings, Ulcers, Erysipelas, Swelled Neck, Goiter, Scrofulous Inflammations, Indolent Inflammations, Mercurial Af fections, Old Sores, Eruptions of the Skin, Sore Eyes, etc., etc. In thereat in all other constitutional Diseases, WALKER'S VINEGAR BITTERS have shown (heir great curative powers in the most obstinate and Intractable Carts. Dr. Walker's California Vinegar Bitters act on all these cases in a similar manner. By purifying the Blood they remove the cause, and by resolving away the effects of'the inflammation (the tubercular deposits) the affected parts receive health, and a permanent cure is effected. The properties of DR. WALKER'S VINEGAR BITTERS are Aperient. Diaphoretic and Carminative, Nutritious, Laxative, Diuretic, Sedative, Counter-Irritant, SurlnrifiC, Alterative, and Anti-Bilious. The Aperient and mild Locative properties of DR. WALKER'S VINEGAR BITTERS are the best safe guard in all cases of eruptions and malignant (even, their balsamic, healing, and soothing properties protect the humors of the faucet Their Sedative properties allay pain in the nervous system, stomach, and bowels, either front inflammation, wind, colic, cramps, etc. Their Counter•lrritant influence extends throughout the system: Their Diuretic properties act on the Kidneys, correcting and regulating the flow of urine. Their Anti-Bilious properties stimulate the liver, in the secretion of bile, and its discharges through the biliary ducts, and are superior to all remedial agents, for the cure of Bilious Fever, Fever and Ague, etc. Fortify the body against disease by puri• Eying all its fluids with VINEGAR Brrrens. No epidemic can take hold of a system thus forearmed. The liver, the stomach, the bowels, the kidneys, and the nerves are rendered disease-proof by this great invignrant. The Efficacy of DR. WALKER'S VINEGAR Dir. Tarts, in Chronic Dyspepsia, Fevers, Nervous Disorders, Constipation, deflciency of vital power, and all maladies affecting the stomach, liver, bowels, pulmonary organs, or muscular system, has been experienced oy hundreds of thousands, and hundreds of thousands more are ask ing for the same relief. Directions.—'fake of the Bitters on going to bed at night from, a half to one and one-half wine.glassfull. Eat good nourishing food, suck 'as beefsteak, mutton chop, venison, roast beef, and vegetables, and take out door exercise. They are composed of purely vegetable ingredients. and contain no spirits.

Mal MAJ. GEN. JOHN F. HARTRANFT His Military Services and Civic Capacity. A CAREER OF FAME AND A RECORD OF DONOR Our candidate for Governor is too well known to require at this Into day any extend• ecrnewspapec mention. !rho name of Gene ral Hartranft le familiar to the whole country, and in Pennsylvania it has long since become a household word. - - - As a slight recogoltion of his services during the rebellion he was elected in 1885 and in. 1808 by his fellow citizens Auditor General of the State, a position of great responsibility and one requiring the excercise of a methodical mind like that possessed by General Hartranft. Having served the public in a civil capacity as faithfully and fearlessly as he served his coun try on the field cf battle, his fellow citizens have a third time placed him in nomination, this time for the highest and most responsible position within their gilt. In 1865 there was issued a small pamphlet containing a brief record of the public servi ces of General Hartranft. The facts therein set forth constitute a correct biographical sketch of our candidates, and wo here repro duce them, abridged, in order that our citi Zeus may he more easily keep green In their memories the services of 'ono of Pennsylva nia's favgrlte sons. Major General John Frederick Hartranft is a native of New Hanover township, Mont gomery county, Pennsylvania, and was horn December 10, 1830. He graduated at Union .college, at Schenectady, New York, in 1853, and was employed as a civil engineer for some time. He Resisted In running the line of the Mauch Chunk and White Haven railroad, which has since been constructed, and had charge of the working party who surveyed the 'route of the proposed railroad from Chestnut Hill to Doyleatown or New Hope. Having pursued the study of the law the necessary length of time, he was admitted to practice at the bar of Montgomery county in fall of 1860. Ile was elected colonel of the First reel ment of Montgomery county militia, In 1859, having previously been Lieutenant Colonel and Captain. The call to arms in April 1861, when after Sumter was fired President Lincoln issued his first appeal to the heroism and devotion of tha people, found Colonel Hartranft, a Democrat, attached to the political principles in which he had been reared. But It found him none the less a patriot. From the day in which lie took arms In defense of his country, he laid aside all ideas and theory of 'partizanship, and became alone 'a heroic soldier, striving always to do his duty, wherever and whenever that might call him to action. He lost no time In tendering the services of his militia regiment to Governor Curtin, hav ing visited Harrisburg for that purpose, on Tuesday, the 16th day of April, 1861. It was as promptly accepted, and became the .Fourth regiment of Pennsylvania Volunteers. Ren dezvousing at Harrisburg on the 20th, It was speedily armed, equipped, and sent forward to Perryvilie,and thence to Annapolis,and finally to Washington. The term of service of hie regiment had ex- pired, and it was on the homeward march when the battle of Bull Run took place. The forward movement of our army to meet the rebels in that first grand encounter attracted Hartranft's attention, and he determined not to ob left behind, when, for the first time, his country needed his services in actual battle. He offered himself to General McDowell to sere in any capacity in the approaching strug gle where he could be useful. The General remarked that it was scarcely " Oegular" to do so, but that his appreciation of Colonel Hartranft's noble condlict was so high that he would assign him to duty on the stuff of Colo nel Franklin, who commanded the brigade to which the Fourth Regiment had been at cached. Colonel Franklin, in his report,spoke of his services with warm words of commen dation, and General McDowell expressed re gret afterwards that lie had not done justice to his valuable exertions by especially men tioning him in his official report of the battle. General Cameron, then Secretary of War, also referred with high encomiums to his con duct on this occasion, and it was a gallant commencement of a grand career. Colonel Hartranft had no intention of retiring from the service at the close of his three months' campaign. A. week before the battle of Bull Run he had applied to and obtained permission from tho War Department, to recruit a three years' regiment. He lost no time in commenc ing its organization, and on the 10th of No vember it was mustered Into service at Har risburg, with Hartranft as Colonel, and be came the Fifty-first Regiment of Pennsylva nia Volunteers. This regiment was assigned to Burnside's army, which was then organizing at Annapo- Ps, for service on the coast of North Carolina. It became a part of beno's brigade, and parti cipated in the whole of Burnside's campaign. The expedition left Annapolis early in Janu• ary, 1862, and on the 10th of the following month Colonel Hartranft led his men up through a swamp which the rebels had sup. 'posed impassible, to storm the rebel works on Roanoke Island. The rebels were nearly all captured, and the effects of so signal a success In the Initial contest of the campaign, were excellent. The rebel fortificailone at Newberg were tacked and carried on the 15th of March,, and here again Colonel Hartranft bore a conspi• cuous part. The contest was a severe one, and loss on both sides serious. The army of Buroside's remained at Newborn until the conclusion of M'Clelian's d isastroOs campaign on the Peninsula, when a large portion of it was shipped to Newport News, to Join the Army of the Potomac. Early iu August the force at Newport News was transferred by transports to Acquia Creek and thence by railroad to Fredericksburg, where Reno's division arrived on the 4th of that month. Here they Joined the army un der Pope, and thence participated in all the battles and skirmishes of that unfortunate campaign. From Fredericksburg to the old battle ground of Bull Run the movement was almost a continuous struggle, and when the second battle on that renowned locality took place Colonel Hartranft found himself posted on almost the same ground that lie had fought upon in July of thi preceding year. His regi ment was posted on the left of the Centreville road, protecting Graham's battery, till the retreat commenced. When the brigade left the field it was divided, ono regiment only marching with General Ferero, while the other two were ordered to remain under com mand of Colonel Hartranft until all the artil lery was withdrawn. On this, aeon the for mer occasion, when everything was confusion, he remained cool, collected and self reliant. Again at Chantilly, Hartranft met the ene my, and again added new laurels to his fame. But these struggles did not overcome the ene my. Tired, foot-sore and exhausted, as our men were, they took up the line of march once more, on the 7th of September, and Joined the march of the grand army again, under M'Clellan, up through Maryland to South Mountain and Antietam. The engagement at South Mountain, though apparently but a prelude to the greater contest at Antietam, was distinct in its character. It was fought on Sunday, September 14th, and its result transferred the grand battle from the little mountain pass to the banks of the stream be yond. Colonel Hartranft commanded his regiment as usual, leading it to the attack up the moun tain side with his accustomed bravery. That night our men occupied the important position they had carried, sleeping on the summit of the bill, whence the ground sloped away to the valley of the Antietam. Two days occupied in short movements, and the morning of Wednesday, September 17, found our army confronting the Rebel host. Soon the intrepid Hooker, on the right, was engaged. On the left Burnside awaited orders till nearly noon, and then was directed to storm the enemy's position on the opposite bank of the stream, crossing his men over the narrow stone bridge that spanned the creek In his front. The position occupied by the Rebels was one of wonderful natural strength. The road on the east bank wound up near the stream for some distance before reaching the I bridge, and troops marching on It at this point were exposed to a terrible flank fire. .On crossing the bridge it met an abrupt steep bank, and deflected nearly at right angles, up and down the west bank. The bridge was, therefore, entirely commanded by the Rebels. They bad had ample time for preparation, and their artillery was posted to sweep the cause way from end to end, while the riflemen, screaned from view behind trees and rocks, or in web prepared rifle pits, waited the at tack, to open a most deatructlvo fire. Taus posted were the enemy. But the order came to "Take the Bridge." At about 11 o'clock Burnside ordered an attack. First two rest- - moats essayed tcheross this bridge of death. They struggled forward a little distance, ter rlblp cut up by the fire in flank, paused, stag gered end came back. It seemed impossible that mortal men could cross by so terrible a path and live. Again the attempt was made by fresh troops, and again they were repulse' by the terrible fire. Still the bridge must be taken. Then General Ferero rode up to Hartranft, .who lay with his regiment behind a knoll, a shint distance from the stieam, and said to him, " General Burnside directs you to take your regiment and cross the bridge." Bart ranft never questioned the orders of his su periors. It was his rule always to obey. Amid the cheers of his own men, and the shouts of all those who witnessed the attempt, he led forward his regiment, alone and un gupported. Avoiding the unsheltered road below the bridge, they reached the wing walls of the structure, and lay a lew moments skir mishing, holding the ground thus gained. A regiment was hurried up to support them, but the situation was a terrible one. On all sides men and officers were falling. Hart. ranft led his men into the charge, and they dashed gallantly into the storm of leaden hail. The little stream of heroes were fright fully thinned as the struggled forward, but by words and example Hartranft urged them 'on, and—the bridge was curried. That night as the men lay on the ground they had won, Hartrantt went through - the regiment and took the names of all those who had followed him through the terrible path across the bridge. Of five hundred who were in the ranks in the morning, scarcely two hundred were on the hill that night—most of that fearful deficiency were killed or wounded. At FredericksbUrg, when Burnside made his bold and nobly conceived, but disastrous attack In December, Colonel Hartrauft once more led his regiment into battle. That there was no child's play where he fought at Fredericksburg, will be testified by the survivors of that terrible fight. The regiment left' Acquin Creek on the 26th of March,, and were conveyed by trans ports to Baltimore. Thence the railroad ar• teries of our gigantic system, carried them to Cincinnati, where they crossed the Ohio. and entered on a brief campaign In central Ken- tucky. In April General Ferero was relieved of his command of the brigade, and the commander of the division being absent, Colonel Hart ranft succeeded to the charge of that until June, when Ferero returned, ' Early in June the corps once more set out on an arduous campaign. Leaving Kentucky by Railroad to Cairo, and thence passed down the Mississippi on steamers to Sher mac's Landing, opposite Vicksburg, where they landed on the 14th of June. In a day or two they went up the Yazoo river to Haines' Bluff, thence across the country, operating principally in the rear of Vicks burg, to cover Grant's retreat. The campaign was brief but very severe. The marchers were frightful. Amid these severities, Colonel Hartranft was prostrated by a sun-stroke, as were many of his men. Bitt he remained on duty, having for about a week the command of the brigade. On the Fourth of July, after the glorious consummation of Grant's opera tion, the surrender of Pemberton and his gar rison, the movement againlit Johnson at Jack son commenced, and on the 10th skirmishing began between the forces. Hartranft had been riding in an ambulance on the march, but when the first shots of the action were fired, be mounted hie horse and took command as usual, though really unfit to he anywhere but in the hospital. Jackson was captured after eight days' operations, and the campaign in the Missis sippi was at an end. On the 9th of August the corps left Vicks burg for Cairn,and came by Railroad from that City to Cincinnati. At that city, Colo nel Hartranft, still very much prostrated by his attack in Mississippi, received a sick leave and returned to his home in Norristown, to recover his shattered energies. Having par • tially recovered, he left again for the field of action in October, and on the 10th of Novem ber found his regiment at Lenoir, Tennessee, where they were just about being attacked by Longstreet. The arrival of thelr. Colonel at Lenoir was hailed by delight by his men, for they desired his cool head andundaunted heart to lead them in b Atte. fle at once, in the absence of senior officers, took command of the division, and led during the whole of the battles con stituting the defence of Knoxville. Burnside knew the staunch qualities of the Lieutenant he had to support him In keeping Longstreet at bay. The skirmish at Lenoir commenced the campaign. Hartranft was ordered to move forward to Campbell's Station and hold the roads which cross there. He marched promptly in the night with his division and some artillery and cavalry, and occupied the important and stra tegic point, and at nine o'clock In the morn• log the action commenced, continuing for two hours, at the end of which time the die comfitted rebels retired with terrible loss. Hartranft during the engagement had four brigades under him. It was a battle fought against terrible odds, for the Union army numbered only six thousand men, while Long street led at least three times that number. Burnside's only effort was to hold out, and save Knoxville tilfreinforcements could reach him. • The country never needed men worse than she did in the great campaign of 1864, and In the winter previous the Government with ad mirable judgment and forethought began to make preparations for the contingency by of fering inducements to the three years'l regi ments, whose time would expire in the sum mer and fall, to reenlist for .another term. Many regiments did so, and among them Col. Hartranft's Fifty-first P. V., which since the siege of Knoxville, had been stationed in the vicinity, principally at Blaln's cross roads. Here on the 4th of January they were muster ed, and all but a few men agreed to re-enlist. Tito "veterans" received the usual furlough, and the regiment was ordered home to re cruit. The furlough havingexpired, ColonellIart• ' ranft's regiment rendezvoused at Harrisburg, on the 10th of March, and remained at Canto Curtin under charge of Lieut. Col. Schell, till the 10th, when they were sent forward to Annapolis. Here the soldiers of Burnside's command were once more assembling to embark, as was supposed, on some new expedition to the South. Cannel Hartranft was made Acting • Bd. gader General, and placed in command of the post. The remainder of March and most of April was spent in organizing, drilling; and disciplining the new men, embracing not only the new organizations, but the recruits In the Old once. Soon after Colonel Hartranft received his long merited promotion as Brigadier of Vol unteers. He fairly earned it at Antletam,and nothing but his modest determination not to urge his own claims, had prevented him from receiving It long before. He was placed in command of the First Brigade, Third Division, Ninth Army Corps, consisting of six regiments—the 2d and Bth Michigan and 51st Pennsylvania, all veteran regiments and the 17th Michigan. His com mission as Brigadier dated from may 12th, 1864. On the 28d of April Burnside's fordo moved from Annapolis, marching across the country to Washington and Alexandria, where they encamped on the 25th. They became a por tion of Grant's army, actually in the field, about the 28th. With Hartranft active operations begun on the 4th of May, when he broke camp near Warrenton Junction, and took up the lino of march, crossing the Rappahannock and en camping a mile beyond. The following day he crossed Rapidan at Germania Ford, and hurried forward with Burnside's forces to the support of the troops who had been all day engaged at the Wilderness.. The next day—Friday, May 6th—a move ment was made to the left, and Hartranft's .Brigade was placed to the left of the Fifth corps. Further still to the left was the Second corps. Here the enemy was soon encountered and Burnside ordered Hartranft to carry the enemy's works in his front. They were very strong, but the rebels were in force. The ad vance was made at ten o'clock in fine style, and the works were carried and held for a moment, but a sudden panic seized the lef t of the line, and the whole of the brigade fell back. On the 9th, Hartman was. again on the move with his corps. On' the 12th, at day light,. our troops advanced beyond the river Ny, and here ensued a desperate engagment in the coarse of the day, The enemy. opened on our troops with artillery, but two guns of Captain Twitchell's battery soon silenced them. Pushing resolutely forward, the ene my gave way, and Hartranft won two small hills where they had attempted to stand. At 2 o'clock orders were given to attack, and our troops moved gallantly forward. Then ensued a most desperate hand to band fight. The let of June found our troops near cold Harbor, and on that and the 2d there was as- vere skirmishing with the enemy. On the following day thirtranft withdrew toward the loft, and formed line near Bethsana church, and once more engaged the enemy. Agreea bly to orders, he assaulted the enemy In his front, and retook a line which had been lost by our army the preceding evening. The enemy fled precipitately from their position, and Hartranft's men occupied the rifle pits: The successive movements of the left flanks brought the brigade of Hartranft's across the Chickabominy on the 14th of June, and• on the 11th the James was also crossed. On the 17th and 18th his command engaged the 'ene my with severe loss, the contest on the latter day, being at Norfolk and Petersburg railroad at both places General Hartranft exposed him self with his usual gallantry., In the unfortunate action at Petersburg, on the 10th of July, after the explosion of the mine, Hartranft again took part. During his movements urrm the Weldon railroad, by General Grant on the 10114 20th and 21st of August, General Hartranft com manded his brigade ,and did good service in the three days' fighting there. In the engagement near Poplar Springs church, commencing on the 80th of Septem ber, and ending on the 811, of the following month, General Hartranft had command of the Second brigade Instead of the First, and participated. At Hatcher's Hun, on the 27th nod 28th of October,General Hartranft commanded the First Brigade of the First Division, Ninth Corps, which contained several of the old reg iments previously finder him lu the Third Late In March the nation was walling pa tiently for news of the surrender or capture of 11,1chmond,•when It was startled by the re port that Lee had.assumed the offensive and had boldly attacked our lines., A few hours later and the report was confirmed, but with the cheering and encouraging addition that our troops had most brilliantly repulsed the attack, in oue of the hardest engagmepts, for its duration, of the war; that this magnificent feat had been performed by a division com posed of new regiments only recently recruit ed from Pennsylvania, but discipllned,trained and led by a Pencsylvanin. General, now, for his skill and courage, named " THE HERO OF Four STEADiiAN. General Hammitt at this time was in com mand of the 3d division of the 9th corpi. It was composed as just stated, of Piintisyl van ia regiments. The 200th, 205th, 207th, 2013th, 209th, 211th ' raised for one year, alai last sent into the field, to organize and diseiplino them no fitter man could have been sch vied than Hartranft and his choice for the position was most appropriate and for innate. At Port Steadman llartrantt won ilk bre vet of Major Geneal, ❑n honor wel! deserved. In the anal grand assault on Petersburg, when the "confederacy, of traitors crumbled away at last, like a rotten shell, he bore once more a distinguished part. Gen Hartranft and.his command saw nu more lighting dur ing the campaign. The Canvinio for Mr Premitieney—The Mooting. 'fills Evening—The Country fo r tirtmt. From the N. 1. Herald of Put IVedne•llly Tho meeting announcod for this evening at the Cooper Institute will attract attention apart from its political signiticante. We have not much faith In meetings, and we shonld fear for the success of General Grant as a can didate for the• Presidency if It needed these adventitious circumstances to strengthen his fame. At the same time the list of risime signed to this call will make a striking im pression upon the people when compared with the list appended to the democratic fleeting which welcomed Carl Scluirz and Lyman Trumbull'the other evening. We do not see Charles A. Lamont, B. F. Mudgett, Peter Schnitzler, Robert Murry, Sigisnuild Kauf mann, Simon Stevens, Sixt Ludwig Knapif, Lorenz Homier, E. Krackowizer, and the host of distinguishad Oriental and Schivonlc fellow citizens who came to light as Colonel Conk ling's "Vice Presidents." And we do see Peter Cooper, William 11. Vanderbilt, L. P. Morton. H. B. Clain, E. D. Morgan, W. E. Dodge. John A. Stewart, Paran Stevens Thulow Weed, David Dews, Henry Clewe, William Orton, C. P. Huntington and a host of other names, every one of whom represen t something of that spirit of New York which contributed so largely to her glory and wealth. These gentlemen are not holders of place. They have no connection with the intpigues and ambitions of office. It is to them as to the Herald—of no concern so far as they are personally concernedw hether Grant or Greeley reigns; but it is oC the utmost consequence, as citizens of the United States and so largely Interested in the wealth of the metropolis, that there should be a President whose administra tion will bring peace find stability to the conntry. When men of this class make political ad ventures they aro entitled to more than usual consideration. We do not believe inherently that the opinions of one cluster of citizens are of so much more value than the opinions of another ; for in a country of universal suffrage all men are alike before the polls, and the In terests of a hundred laboring men on the Park are to be considered as carefully as those of a hundred merchants on Wall street. and it' Frackowizer and Schnizler and Sigismund Kaufmann and Robert Mnrry and Lorenz. Bommer aro dissatisfied with Grant ; and if, when the list of "dissatisfied" is made up and printed, it reads like a transcript from the Grand Jury's list of indictments for whiskey frauds, it would be unfair to make criticisms, as we must admit that they have every right to express their opinions. We have no doubt there are people in New York, and undoubt edly in Hoboken, who wil feel impressed by the emotions of Krackowizer and Schnitzler and their friends and who will share their an ger against Grant. Aud we must be very careful not to underrate the power of this feel ing, or the political value of those world-re nowned and very honorable gentlemen. Itt our politics a hair will frequently turn the bal. auce, We saw how a fraction defeated Henry Clay in 1844. Wo remember that one vote made Marcus Morton Governor of Massachu setts, and no ono Is wise to despise the day of email men and small things. For this reason we especially urge thut,in a due consideration of the chances of the canvass, Krackowizer, Sehnitzler, Lorenz Hammer, Robert Murry and those who go with them shall not be over looked 'or forgotten. They are opposed to Grant. They want reform. They denounce nepotism, ostracism and every .`ism" but egotism. They have no confidence in Tom Murphy, of all living men. They worship Horace Greeley, or will until he resumes his advocacy of the Temperance law, and they see a Ileavep-appointed leader a Muses to lead them to the promsed land, in the iron visage of George Gilks. The rights we con cede so generously to these gentlemen we con code also to Mrs. Woodhull, 5t1911.11 B. An• thony, Mrs. Stanton, Anna E. Dickinson Eked their garrulous followers. Miss Dickinson is pronounced against Grant and makes better speeches than Schurz. Mrs. Woodhull like Mr. Greeley and Mr. Trumbull, not only op poses Grant, but is herself a candidate against him. Whether Krackowizer, or Schnitzier, or Kaufmann, or Hemmer are candidates or not we have not heard, for we are afraid we are bebludhand in our statistics of aspirants for the Presidency. While on one side we have Woodhull, Anna Dickinson, Krackowizer, Bommer, Robert Murray, Carl Schurz, Horace Greeley, B. F. Mudgett and the representatives of all the Sclu vonic and Oriental races combined, not to speak of Joshua F. Bailey and other gentlemen of equal fame, who were prevented by thee m • stances from attending the Greeley-Krackow l ux demonstration in person ; on the other side we have the people who believe in Grant. The press is divided in the same manner. A num ber of fugitive and class newspapers, of under• tain and movablO circulation, oppose Grant ; but the representative journals, headed by the' Herald, support him. Far be It from us to enter into the petty quarrels by which we learn from one newspaper why the editor of another is a worthless or disappointed man. W e know and care nothing about these matters, and do not feel that there is any relevancy in the die cusaions. But we do see that the representa tive newspapers, the thoroughly independent press, support Grant. In the daily press we have the Herald, of which it Is not for us to speak, as the common consent of mankind re gards it as the first journal of America and among the first journals of the world. In the weekly press we have Harper's Weekly, the Christian Union and the Independent, all hav ing very large circulation and represent ing the weekly press. Against Grant we have the Nation and the. Spirit of the Times— one a literary, the other a sporting journal, each addressing an influential class, but a class that does not make or unmake Presidents. Beyond the strong and resolute opinions of the able men who edit these two journals their influence Is limited, and in a tints like this II is not the men who write so much as the men who read that makes public opinion. The Herald, with its half million readers, sweeps over the country like a sea-wave, buoy ing up or engulfing, as the case may be, and one expression in its columns will do more to ROBERT IREDELL, JR.

The men who sign this call and who are to assemble this evening aro the•first men In the United States. In wealth, power, enterprise, genius for business and af fairs, in all that contributes to honorable cit izenship and the welfare of the republic, they have no superiors, While we make no merit of this, or in any way mean to encourage what might he called • caste in-politics. the lesson that all men will learn is that the heart of the nation beats for Grant • find as the heart beats the body lives. The breeley-ffracko wizer meeting was stupendous. The Cincin nati movement is powerful. The men who head it are able and accomplished men. Wo expect to see It larger still. It will be man aged with consummate political skill, as we have no more crafty men In politics than some of its leaders. But we saw Tammany en throned and powerful, and managed with ex traordinary skill. The men who arose in re • hellion against Tammany were the men who sign this call, the same class of men in all re spects. They opposed Tammany not as to political measure. but as a duty. They sup port Grant fur the same reason. They hearken to the noise of the politicians, the clamors about relatives and "presents," and enjoy the humor and anger of the canvass, just as the tired merchant may throw up his counting house window and give a few minutes and a handful of pennies to a troupe of wandering negro minstrels. But when the time comes to vole and net, and to spend money for the honest purposes of the canvass, they look gravely at the situation, and speak as well as vote as honest, impartial and satisfied men. They see. that Ulysses S. Grant has been pre-eminently the President of the people ; that lie bee kept every pledge mane to his party ; that he has avoided tempt mg and embarrassing complications ; that lie has ever studied and advanced the Misfiles in terests of the country ; that he has paid the dubtand strengthened the credit, and that if he were to retire to-morrow he would leave the country better, happier and more prosper ous because of his administration. As Mr. Greeley said a year ago, before his eyes were dazzled by the unhealthy light of Presidential ambition:—" Ile misui.derstauds human na lute who fancies that these facts will not tell in a Presidential contest." These are the i fame, and the only facts that will tell. We shall have an angry canvass. These will be nil kinds of phenomena, quarrels in Pennsyl vania and Indiana; , intrigues and strifes to interest and amuse us, and in the eyes of the politicians a close and uncertain contest. Mr. Sumner will pimbably be nominated In Cincin nati, with Mr. Greeley as his colleague, and we shall have au emasculated platform like that which was created when Bell and Everett ran against Lincoln and Hamlin. There will be transformations and changes, and rearranging of lines, concessions and surrenders. But when the electoral votes are counted it will be found that the great, earnest, honest heart of the country has registered the decree that Ulysses S. Grant shall be President of the United States fur four more years, and that as many democr Is as repuhlicanscontributed to that auspicious and happy result. MONSTER DEMONSTRATION Tlu, Great Grant Meeting. In NOW York Last Wednesday. The meeting in New York last evening In favor of the renomination of Grant was one of the largest and most Imposing demonstra tions ever held in the city of New York. A. platform was erected outside for the accommo dation of those who could net get inside the building, and there was a grand display of fireworks, calciums, transparencies, music,etc. W. E. Dodge presided, and the speakers were Senator Morton, of Indiana ; Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts, and B. P. Butler. Addresses were also made by Mr. OFfdyke,Mr. J. W. Beekman, Mr. Isaac W. Bailey and lion. J. H. Rainey, colored member of Con gress from South Carolina. Its importance as a public demonstration was seen in the earnestness and intelligence marking the whole proceedings, and in the emphasis and good, patriotic .sense of the speeches delivered. In these elements it was in striking contrast with the Cincinnati meet ing of the other night. At the meeting last evening there was manly straightforwardness of speech—a series of speeches whose basis of argument was the plain logic of events of the past three years of President Grant's adminis tration. . . The Herald says it was an assemblage of largely representing the intelligence, the capi tal, the business' interests and the substantial citizens of New York • that they fully com prehend the good work fur the city end the country achieved by General Grant as the head of the national government, and that the speeches and the resolutions- of the meeting speak the common judgment of the country, as tar as made known In the recent State elec tions and in the conventions of the republican party. A. meeting such as this, in advance of the nomination of the Presidential candidate of either of our two great political parties, Is an extraordinary event; but when revolution ary disturbances aro afoot our solid and re sponsible citizens are quick to take the alarm and come to the front, in the expressirin of their judgement on public men and public af fairs. Such were the elements and the spirit and such the proceedings of this administration meeting. It was an assemblage of the solid men of the metropolis, its capitalists, mer chants, manufactures, mechanical professional and working men generally who are satisfied with General Grant's adualnistraVon. The Libernl'• Convention If the Cincinnati " Liberal" movement means a liberal use of the names of persons having no sympathy with the opposition to the reelection of President Grant, then it is likely to be something of a success. The Tribune of the lath contains a letter from its Philadelphia correspondent giving the names of a number of persons, who, the writer says, will go to the Cincinnati Convention. Among the number Is that of ex. Speaker of the Senate, Chas. B. Stinson, of this Borough. The ollowing note, however, will explain his views in relation to the matter, which our liberal friends are at liberty to use : NORIIISTOWN, April 16, 1872. AL B. Wills—Dour 131 r : Replying briefly to your note of title. morning, I would say that the use of my name In connection with the Cincinnati "Lib eral" Convention, whilst it is a matter probably of but little public importance, was without my knowledge, nod has not my sanction. lam against any movement having for its object the defeat of the re-election of President Grant. Very truly, yours, CHAS. H. STINSON. Most of the persons mentioned by this cor respondent, as likely to go to Cincinnati, have probably no Idea of so doing. " What we want to arrive at is the motive which induces fools to send false intelligence to the nowspapers." This sentence from the Tribune of the date above named can very reasonably bo submitted to Its Philadelphia correspondent.—Norristown Herald. A Tunnel to Connect Englnnd nod Frnnce The plan of Cutting a submarine tunnel be tween France and England is assuming a practical form. About ono hundred and fifty thousand dollars are to be first expended in an experimental drift-way ; one-third of this amount has been subscribed, several leading noblemen in England taking especial interest in the enterprise and leading the subscriptions. An English deputation recently welted upon M. Tillers to obtain the support of the French government In this undertaking. He replied Met France could vote no capital, but that every facility and encouragement which the government could offer would be freely ex tended. No material aid was looked for,under the clrcumatances, and the English men in terested seem to have been satisfied by the position assumed by the French. President. The work, when once actually begun, will probably be continued with great rapidity. It is curious, that while the traffic between the two countries justifies capitalists In such nn immense undertaking as this, such miserable tub-like boats should monopolize the ferriage between Dover and Calais. This may be for the beat ; for if such magnificent steamers as float upon the Hudson river or Long Island sound wore plying between the two points, the demand for a tunnel would be much less emphatic than It now Is. The Legislative Conference Committee have agreed on the City Charter. The Vanderbilt Underground Railroad bill has been read a third time In the Senate. • The Impeachment charges against Judges Cardozo and Barnard have been made the special order for Friday lu the Assembly. The Florida Gubernatorial troubles continue. Governor Reed has asked the State Supreme Court for an opinion, and the actin Governor has called a Special session of the Legislature.
