gloss and freshness of youth. Thin
hair is thickened, falling hair checked,
and baldness often, though not always,
cured by its use. othing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de
stroyed, or the glands atrophied and
decayed ; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu
lated into activity, so that a new
growth of hair is produced. Insteml
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning. gray or falling off, anti
consequently prevent baldness. The
restoration of vikility it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma

deleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju

benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a lIAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambric, and yet lasts

Colonel Blanton Duncan on the War Path
—What he known about Greeley and
his Supporters—A .pi q criticism of
Meigros. %Yarmouth, Warner. Rice;
other Liberal Lendarn—A .11tmle blast
from the Chairman of the Democratic
National Committee.
The following circular address has been
issued by the Democratic Executive Commit
tee :
LOUISVILLE, August 0, 1872.
DExn Sin: Will you be kind enough to
pive this circular in the hands of :.dive Dem
ocrats in your county, who will at once com
mence an organization for the purpose of sup
porting the principles of our party as they will
be proclaimed by the convention at Louisville
September 3 ? The utter abandonment of
principles as evinced by the coalition between
the spollemen and place hunters in their at
tempt to elevate Horace Greeley to the Presi
deucy is a sad evidence of the detnoralization
and corruption now existing in our midst ;
and based as that bargain is, upon fraud atnl
hypocrisy, the utterance of one set of semi•
meats in the North,and another in the South,
It must be repudiated and spurned by every
man who has a spark of honesty in .his heart.
here are hundreds of thousands who al
ready proclaim their purposes of maintaining
the Democratic organization at ail hazards.
the disintegration of the Radical party into
two factions renilers it self-evident that the
Democratic masses can elect one of their own
laith, instead of a Ide-long enemy like Gree
ley, who stilt loudly asserts that he has never
abandoned his principles, and points proud:) ,
yet to his record I
And such a record
Can Democrats who have boasted that they
support "principles, no men," agree to totally
their past life by clasping hands with the wtost
men of the Radical party—bumper, Schurz,
Trumbull, Fenton, and the thousand other
leaders who rally around Greeley, and would
control his administration if his election can
be secured P Who are the men that t h us se, It
for the highest honors and emoluments of this
country, and who have obtained the support
or the trading politicians ot the Tammany
school by a promise of dividing the spoils ?
Wlthilla exception they are the ,igots whose
bitterness has been evinced for the past twen
ty years in defamation ot their opponents.
They are the men who have uttered the most
unchristian, the most lerocious, the most vii
Minims sentiments snout 11,111 against the

We ask the voters of Pennsylvania to exam
ine attentively the record of Chtules R Rucka
lew as a member of the United States Senate
for FOX years, presented below, and decide
from it what claims he has now on them for
the highest honors within their gift. .
Charles R. Iluckalew, the Democratic can
didate for Governor, served as nUniled States
Senator from Pennsylvania from 1803 to 1009
It is well Immo—in fact, notorious—that all
through the war his sympathies were with the
rebels. tie was n leader among the copper.
head Denaocracy,that wing of the party which
kept up it constant fire in the rear of the Union
armies, by giving aid and comfort to the enemy
Ile was not an open enemy, like Vallandiug•
ham ; but a crafty, politic adversary, who,
Whenever it was possible, would move in dis
guise and cover pp his tracks. He, was, to all
intents and purposes, a rebel in the tanks of
the brave men who 'were fighting against tree
son.. lie was therefore a tit and trusted mills
vary of the Confederacy—one who could be
relied on to impart ally information tha , .
might damage the Union cause and help the
rebels; one who was willing to consult with
the rebel agents in Canada, and encourage
them to Mrsevere in their efforts to overthrow
Ilea republic. At home he was in the confi
dence rf those organizations formed to resist
the draft, and was the head and front of a
powerful opposition in his on•n county—a
combination whose acts were as treasonable
as was the firing on Port Sumter. When men
were most needed to fill decimated ranks, and
conscription had to be resorted to, Hu ckalew
not only tacitly counseled resistance to the
process of the law, but 'titled and encouraged
It by welcoming deserters and fugitives from
the draft. So firmly and steadiustly was he
committed to the cause of disunion that he
never permitted himself to say or do aught
Cod might injure the rebel cause. When
forced to act he was always found helping the
enemy, whether as a private citizen or a pub•
lie officer. His record as a United States Sen
ator is in complete harmony with his other
acts. That the people of Pennsylvania may
judge this man by his acts we append an
analysis 01 the record of his votes while Sen.
lour :
1. That Charts R. Burkatoo opposed every
measure tending to aid in the suppression of
the rebellion.
1. Ile voted against-paying bounties to vol.
unteers. Il e -would have deprived the soldier
Mall bounties because he hated the (anise for
which they Mught, and wanted to disencour
age the enlistment 01 volunteers.
2. Ile voted against giving the black soldiers
the same pay as White. A. pro slavery, rebel
sympathizing Democrat, he believed toe negro
fit only fcr a slave ; and after the black man
tint proved his loyalty, his bravery and his
manhood, Buttelew would still have him de
graded.
3. Ile voted against the conscription law,
without which tt would have beer, impossible
to Maintain Ina pilleamey or the armies, and
defeat the rebellion. When this law came to
be enforced lie encouraged an organization to
resist its execution.
4. Ile voted against an appropriation of
twenty live million dollars, to pay one hun
dred day volunteers, or emergency men. He
would rather that the State capital had fallen
into the hands of the enemy than toot Lee bad
been driven back from Gettysburg.
5. Ile voted against the bill to restrict the
expenses of the collection of soldiers' claims
against the government. This was entirely
consistent. Ile was in favor of paying soldiers
only as little as possible, and when a solder
bud lost his lite in the service, his represeum
oyes must pay as dearly as possible for col
lecting his clain.s.
6. Ile voted for paying rebel slave owners
for slaves drafted or received as volunteers in
to the Union orates; and would to•day vote
for the rebels for the loss tit all
their slaves, and for pensioning disabled rebel
soldiers. Such a course would he consistent
with his every act and every vote.
11. 'lk .1 Charles R. Buckalenv hindered. in
every possible way, the work of reconstructeon,
except 'upon terms acceptable to the rebels.
I. Ile Was opposed to seitabos taking an
oath renewing then' allegiance and fidelity to
the United States. Iluvutg acted With the
traitors himself, in giving aid and comfort tti
the en. my, and never having renounced his
treason, he could not have voted otherwise.
2. lie voted against a r. solution providing
that neither house of Congress should admit
Senators or Representatives front the rebel
States, until Congress should have• declared
such State entitled to such representation.
3. Ile voted against admitting lido Congress
the loyal representatives Rom ;Tennessee.
4. lie voted agathat the Reconstruction
acts, and the supplements thereto.
5 Ile voted against the bill readmitting the
seceded Slates.'
6. Ile voted against the resolution exclud
dug from the Electoral College the vote of
rebel Slates mitt yet reorganized.
111. Charles te. Ruckalon opposed every
measure calculated t i secure
,the political and
civilright o [the colored rime.
1. lie voted against the Civil Rights bill,
securing equality before the law to all men.
withoht distinction id race or color. By this
vote he declared that a black man slitund not
have the same legal rights us tither men—that
be should be excluded Iron chtirches, front
schools, front colle'es, from railway cars,from
hotels. from so am bind cabins, from .theaters,
and from all public privileges. This doctrine
is now being enforced in SaVannall, Where
black men are shut for attempting to ride in
street cars.
2. Ile voted against an amendment to per
mit colored citizens to vote and hold office in
Montana.
3. 11 • voted fo' an amendment to prohibit
colored persons.from becoming citizens of the
United mates.
. 4. lie voted against the repeal of the Fugi
tive Slave law.
5. Ile votid against establishing the Freed
men's Bureau, which was the means of bring.
ing and senor to thousands of destitute
and suffering blacks.
6. Ile voted against furnishing temporary
relief to destitute blacks in the District of
Columbia.
7. Ile voted against adulating Nebraska
wlth n constitution enfranchising the colored
residents.
8. lie voted against the Fifteenth amend
ment, securing the ballot to the colored men of
the United States, and raising these downtrod
den minim's to the dignity. of American titi•
'Lens. Ile is against this timendment still, and
would do all in his power to abolish it.
IV. Charles R. Buckalew opposed wholesome
financial measures, necessary to secure stability
and confidence among business men, and pro•
tett the cratt of the nation.
1. Ile opposed the National Banking lid—
o nt asure without Width the rebellion could
not. have been crushed and the financial affairs
of the government successfully administered ;
which gave stability to the country. and sub.
sequently enabled the administration to pro:
vole for the payment of the national debt.
2. Ile opposed the adoption of a uniform
system of bankruptcy, a measure which has
brought relief to thousands of business men,
and greatly stimulated mercantile and Mann-
Met ming enterprises. -
3. Ile favored a redundant currency, to the
end that financial cmititienc , might be weak
ened by a high rate of premium on gild, and
by delaying the gradual return to a specie
basis.
V. Charles IL Burkatete voted uniformly
against protection to Ameri , an industry, thus
striking directly at the vital interests of I:'enneyl
vania.
lle favored the passage of an act to reduce
the tax on raw cotton, so es to hene;lit his
rebel friends; but when tile bill to increase
the duties on Imports, and the bill imposing a
tarlifon imported copper and copper ore were
under consideration, ho voted nay.
This is the record 01 Charles IL Backelew,
and We 100 K to vain for an act or vote of his
in aid of the government m its ilfe.struggle
with treason. We challenge hlssupporters to
show, from his record as a United States Sen
ator, a single word spoken in defense of the
government, or a single votegivou foi the sup•
pr.ession of the rebel lion. They will fail to
11 nil, In all his long service ns Senator, a word
of sympathy for the 'Minn cause, or a word
in d-nonelatien of those who souglitto disrupt
the nation.
A BIG STRIKE
Lucia In the 011 Region%
Although we hear comparatively little,
now adays, of sudden accessions to wealth by
needy farmers, owing to 01l discoveries on
their farms, such es were common in the
height of the oil excitement new developments
are continually making in the oil regions of
Piinnsylvania, and incidents occasionally oc
cur which are as remarkable as any of those
which created so much comment a few years
ago. New oil territory is constantly added
to the productive districts, and many vicissi
tudes continue to mark the fortunes of those
engaged in its development. The 'Titusville
Herald tells it story of a well lately bored on
a farm which"had been considered outside the
bounds of nil territory. The experiment was
described by the experienced oil men of that
region. as "the wildest kind of wild.catting."
But the men who had charge of the undertak
ing bored on with undiminished confidence
until, on comparing its depth with other welts,
the surveyor pronounced it already too deep,
and the told experienced thriller who superin
tended the job declared there was no use in
boring any deeper. Thereupon the proprie
tors sold tint the well as "a dry hole" to a
party of operators who had a theory,and were
willing to pay something Mr an opportunity
of testing it. The well and thirty acres of
land were bought at five o'clock in the after
noon, operations were immediately resumed,
and the new owners proved thecorrectness of
their theory hr striking oil at eight o'clock on
the Hanle day. Betiire t h e tubing could be
nut in 700 barrels flowed. In an inconceiva
bly short. time the news had unaccountably
spread, and the fields around the well were
filled with an eager, excited crowd
crowd of men, while horsemen scoured the
surrounding country calling the sow( fled
farmers from their beds, and paying them
sums for their farms that they had never
dreamed of possessing. Since this event the
burners In that region have become it, mora
lized, and think nothing of asking $lOO,OOO
for barren little farms, which for agrieuhund
purposes would be dear at $t 000.
JUDGE KELLEY'S VIEWS
11 inadsome Tribute to Geo. Hortroudit
One of the staff of the San Francisco Chron
icle has called upon lion. Win. D. Kelley,
while the latter was in the city named, and
gives the cause of the call, and the result, in
the paper 03 which he - is engaged, from which
the following is taken :
lion. Wm. D. Kelley, of Pennsylvania, is
to-day . one of the fors:most men in the Republi
can party. As the lea ler or the tariff party
an the House of Representatives, and a prom.
tonal member of the Cornmitfee of Ways and
'Means, he is regarded as occupying a position
In that body second only to Mr. Dawes, or
Mas achusetts. Recognizing the fact that his
views im the aspect of political affiirs in the,
Ea.-t, and especially of the Gubernational con
test it Pennsylvania, would have considerable
significance.
In view of his reputation as a
shreNd and far seeing politician, n repo, ter
called upon him and was cordially received.
Alter some preliminary conversation . the
political conoition in Pennsylvania was reach
ed. Judge Kelley paid a handsome tribute to
the character aud ability ol General Hartran ft ;
he said he believed him to have been an ban
est and efficient civil officer, and that his
popularity with the soldiers of Pennsylvania,
to whose glory he added by p rare combina
(lon of reckless courage and cool discretion as
a commander would have made him Governor
innno any. even if he. had not been nominated
now. With regard to the Evans fraud the
Judge said about the time of the discovery of
that embezzlement nearly every prominent
politician in Pensylvania, from Gov. Geary
down, was accused by the Demacratic press
of being connected with it. Hartranft did
not escape of course, and it was just at the
lime of the investigation that he was pushed
f.irward for Governor. This investigation
completely exonerated Hartranft from the
slightest complicity.
=ID
In all parts of the State, where Republican
meetings have been hel 1, the best of feeling
has prevailed, large audiences have been at
tracted, and a zeal and determination have
been manifested which give very encouraging
signs of victory. In those counties where,
immediately following the State Convention,
there were meetings of disapproval, the lines
have been closely drawn, and increased Re
publican majorities arc promised. In Chester
county, where considerable disaffection was
said to exist, the attempt ofn few disappointed
individuals to organize a Liberal movement,
aroused the Republicansand soon made them
a unit. One district, supposed to have been
very much disaffected, was polled throughout,
and the result showed au increase of rift, en per
cent. over the heaviest Republican majority
ever given i that county. Since the opening
of the campaign in Allegheny county, not
only has all indifference disappear, d, but the
Republicans arc manifesting an energy and
spirit rmite unusual. tans early in the canvass.
The work of organization goes on rapidly, the
laborers are at their posts„aud by October
there will be such a solid fr;int of Republican
b-m, supported by thousands of honest Demo
crats as will put to rout the forces of the
Confederate p rty, mustered under that mise
rable leadereßuckulew•Pittsburgh Commer

The anti-Administration papers are publih
lug it letter signed by Senator Spencer, and
addressed to President Grant purporting to
have been written on July 7th, 1872, and re
lating to the 'Federal patronage in Alabama,
and an alh•ged bargain between Mr. Spencer
and the President, whereby the former was
promised cermin ofticus tor his friends in re
turn for service , ' rendered during the present
campaign. The truth is that this letter was
written over n year ago by Mr. Spencer whet'
the nomination of ex. Senator Warner for the
Collectorship of Mobile was before the Scuttle
and sent to Secretary Boutwiffi with the re.
quest that It be sent to the President; but
the Secretary, instead of doing so, consigned
It to the flea of his office, where it remained
until the Senate called fir all correspondence
on file in the Department relating to the Mo
bile collectorship, when, with other papers it
wits sent to the Senate, n_d soon afterwards
published. The. President was not aware that
such a letter had been written until he saw it
in print, and the attempt to make him a party
to the alleged bargain must be regarded sim
ply as it campaign dodge. The date of the
letter has been changed in order that it may
be more effective as a Greeley campaign doc
ument.
The Peach Crop
One of the peculiarities of this crop is that
It nevi r pays well when the yield is abundant.
The perishable nature of the product necessi
tates a qbick wale, and when the supply is
large it olten sells at a sacrifte. But when
the croidis lighter the fruit is generally better,
will bear longer transportation, and w ill t com
mend a better prier. The prestut season •the
crop iu some sections Is a failure, and iu all is
less than an average. Hence the supply will
be limited, and as the fruit is good, the fortu
nate owners of full orchards will have a profi
table harvest. Already we hear of many who
have sold their fruit, delivered a: boat or cars
fur 70 to 90 cents, and the prospect promises
even better prices. 'Owing n. the uncertainty
of the Baltimore and Philadelphia markets,
many reach railroad connection, where they
can ship knit dirt ctly to New York, and un
less Baltimore and Philadelphia dealers deal
more liberally than in the past, they will pro
bably find tlie supply much less 'than the de
mand.— Cecil ',macro&

SALISBURY, N. C.,. Angust. 13--Ire the
Senate district comprising the counties of Ire
dell and Alexander, where the Republicans
have gained 1,600 votes since the previous
State election, the excitement is still at fever
heat, and acts of violence are quite frequent.
The residents are chiefly whites, and n
thorough canvass of the district was made by
James H. Foote and Thomas N. Cooper, the
Republican Senatorial candidate. On Sundry
lest, while Mr. Cooper was in church at Hol
ly Springs, Iredell county, a mob of Greeley.,
ire from Olin, armed w lib Clubs and pistols,
assembled at the place for the avowed purpose
of killing him. lie was escorted from church
by his Wends, and conveyed in safety to his
residence, two m , 1..q; off.
Two days before that E. B. Drake, of Ire.
dell, editor of the Stat. svi Ile American, who
recently pronounced for Grant, was attacked
near his office by a crowed of rufllans, headed
by John Houston, and brutally beaten, in the
strmt.
At Bever Creek Township, in Wilkes
County. a shocking affair occured at the close
of the campaign. D. M. Furches, Repuhli•
can, and "XX'' Robbie a, a Democrat, had
made engavements to speak there—the latter
in the evening. By 9 o'clock • most of the
Greeley hes of the township were in front of
McNeil's store, armed with revolvers and
knives. Among them was a man named
noy, who began to quarrel with Jonathan
Stout, a Republican. Vanny, maddened by
the cooland passive behavior of Stout, loudly
swore that he would either kill him or eat his
breakfast in hell. He attacked Stout with a
pole, striking hint with it several limes, anti
Stout retreated, facing his assailant as he did
so. Vanoy then threw down the pole, and,
knit', in hand, sprang at Stout, who, quick as
a Bash, drew his own knife, and as the two
met, thrust it into Vanoy's breast. "11,
--d rascal has killed toe," Vanoy gasp.
ed out, and instantly expired. The blade had
pierced his heart. Stout has disappeared,but
it is believed that he will ,give himself up
There was no public speaking In Bever Creek
after that.
At Taylor's Spring, Iredell county, James
11. Foote was assailed by John °shunt, a
Greeley ite, from Olin township, as he was
resting under a inc. Osborne stealthily ap
proach Major Foote and kicked him savagely
on the head. The Olin gang drew their pin
tols, but Foote's friends rallied and drove
them off.
In Wilkes county, at Antioch township, an
unprovoked assault was committed upon John
Johnson, an inoffensive colored man, by
Wesley Souther, because he voted. the Re
publican ticket. This is the first time that
Iredell county has been canvassed by tee Re.
publicans since the close of the war.
THE HOICK THAT HA HTRANFT
II AN PERFORMED IN NIX YEARS.
Gen. Hartranft, like the great party which
he represents, rests his claims to public con•
sideration and confidence, not on what he
says, or what other people in iy say for or
against him, but upon what he has done— what
he has accomplished in the public service. Ile
is to be Judged by acts, not words.
During the first three years as Auditor
General, by the direct sole good tnimagem eat
of John F. Ilartranft, guarding the publ lc' re
sources, an•t closely scrutinizing all expen
ditures of public money, the indebtedness of
Pennsylvania was reduces $4,324,055.7 8.
During his second term, the reduction aggre
gated $4,771,388.52 ; mikin; a total of debt
reduction accomplished by Auditor General
Hartranft, in six years, NINE MILLION
NINETY-FIVE THOUSAND FOUR HUN
DRED AND FORTY-FOUR DOLLARS
AND THIRTY CENTS.
This Is practical work, the statement of
which may not occupy as much space as some
of Buckalew's speeches discussing points in
Stuart Mills' theories of political economy, yet
it is more satisfactory' and comprehensive to .
the people than any long buncomb harangue.
The effect of the work on the securities of
Pennsylvania, is shown by the rate at which
State securities were and are now quoted In
Philadelphia. In May Ist, 1800, when Gen.
liartranft went into office, our bonds were
quoted at 881; at the present time the quota
tion is, 3d series, 107; Ist series, 103, and all
other series at 102@i03. Such are the results
and the effects produced by Hartranfes man
agement of the Auditor General's i,ffice..
When General Llurtranft took charge of the
Auditor Gee cafe office, the debt of Pennsyl-
VRllill aggregated $37,405,45.541 I
At the close of General lliirt.anft's six years
as Auditor General, be reduced this debt to
$28.380,011.11; having, as already stated; in
six years, without any increase of taxation,
and with the tax on real estate removed oy a
Republican Legislature, paid NINE MIL
LIONS,NINTY FIVE TIIOUSAND,FOUR
HUNDRED AND FORTY-FOUR DOL
LARS AND ELEVEN CENTS.
Such; are the results produced by the labors
of a fai•hful and competent official, and such
the morit on which we rest John P. Hart
rault's claim as a candidate for Governor.—

DON'T MK E THE COD PANT
Our readers will be gratified to learn that
two of the old, substantial Republicans, Dr.
J. B. Wood and Samuel J. Parker, who were
disposed to support Horace Greeley for Presi
dent, have concluded that they cannot stand
the company they were getting into, and have
therefore joined the Grant and Wilson Club
in this borough, and paid in their subscrip
tions. Both of these gentlemen were original
Republicans, and possess considerable person
al influence. They have been ardent adml•
rers of Horace Greeley, and thought could
support him as a Republican with safety.
Finding that the inevitable result of his elec
tion must he to restore the rebels of the South
to power, they have resolvod to abandon the

POLITICAL NOTES
"Honest" Horace now—non est Horace in
November.
Some of the friends of Mr. Greeley discover
a resemblance between his countenance and
the mood: They will find the similitude still
more perfect when his total eclipse takes place
in November. .
VEnn. SAP.—" It's my opinion, Jimmy,
that Grayley has his eye on the prieldintlal
cheer." "Will, thin, Mickey, its my opin
lon he'd better be taking it off, or Grant will
be afther sitting down on it." •
Dealers in timber and turpentine near Fay
etteville, N. C., say the business Is very pro
Stable this year. The turpentine is needet:
to make the Democrats down there stick to
Greeley, since their recent woeful defeat.
Horace Greeley was born on Monday lee'
at Decatur. His father is still living, and i.
an ex• Alderman. Horace' is noted for hi
bald-headedness and other bawls, and wham
he knows about farming is confined strictly I
the summer management of milk. —Chien,.

said to certain Republican friends of that min

the party that so long honored and led yoi
but spare it your fifth rib stabs and Judas kis
see Horace, take snine of that in yours,
now.
The dreadful condition of Southern Indus
try under the rule of the tyrant Grant is pal
titularly evident in Limit-liana, which he
managed to increase her manufacturing intci
eats over Iwo hundred per cent. since 1800.
II the follow log, which we take from an ex
change, ever meets Sumner' a eye he will have
a convulsion on the spot. The idea of hi
not being classed among the leaders, but sin,
ply as one of the people, will be too much fop
him : "The defection of such lenders as Gree -
ley, Trumbull and Schurz, and Fenton has
been followed by a still greater flood amnnr
the people, bearing upon its bosom such mei
as Sumner, and Banks, and Grow, and Little
John; and hosts of others, whose names sr.
published from day to day."
The following Greeley speech was deliverei
at Davenport, lowa, day before yeaterday,un
der the inspiration of the "great Liberal vie
tory In North Carolina" : "I was a rebel aol

Chicago Journal, Aug. 8.
The Hon. B. F. Wade, of Ohio, has taken
the stump for Grant and W neon, and is em
plicate in the declaration that the Democrat'
party of to-day, notwithstanding its platform,
is the same old Democratic party. A fev,
thousand Liberals may have changed. but Oa
three million Democrats remain the same. H.
thinks amnesty has goes fur enough, all the
rebels having been pardoned except those per
jured traitors 'who, rifler having sworn alie
giance to the United States, took a countc'
oath of fidelity to the Confederacy. Greeley':
election 'would be a Democratic triumph. The
copperheads already boasted that they "had s
ring in his nose," and expected the Liberals
to help steer him by his tail. If elected b)
Democrats, he would justly be controlled by
Democrats. Ile said lie had been a friend o
Greeley for a great many years, but his recent
conduct was the most unaccountable he had
ever known. He could not account for it on
any principles of honesty whatever. Greeley
had, Judas-like, betrayed his party for the
sake of a Presidential nomination. Mr Wade
spoke in the til & hest terms of Gen. Grunt, and
said there had been the most villainous at
tempts to break hint down ever resorted to
against any public man that ever lived. He
explained Sumner's defection, and avowed
Grant's administration as the most honest and
economical since the Republican party came
Into power.
The Washington Republican is permitted to
copy the following from a letter received by
one of the largest merchants of that, city from
a prominent man whomever yet voted a Re
publican ticket : " My opinion is strengthened
that Grant must succeed. I have canvassed
with such men as Commodore Vanderbilt, and
others of like commercial standing, and they
are all horrified at the certain panic which
must ensue if Greeley should be elected. One
very wealthy and influential Pennsylvanian
said that the mom, ut his watchtulnessdiscov
ered a chance for Greeley he would sell out
every dollar lie was worth of government se
curities. I find the joke of going for Greeley
is changing into serious considerabon of con
sequences which may ensue if he should suc
ceed ; but I don't Bee bow It le possible. If I
know the Democratic party at all—and twenty
five years' Intimate sod active membership
should have given me some knowledge there
in—l feel sure that Greeley cannot poll more
than half of its vote. I don't say that Grant
will get the other half, for I think a large
number will not vote at all. Now, allowing
Greeley half the Democratic vote and one
third of the Republican (where he will get it
I don't see'), aud Grant is re elected by an im
wens° malority. Nevertheless it behooves
every one who values the prosperity of the
country above mere party considerations, and
the danger of change merely for the sake of
change of the chief officer of the government,
to pause and contemplate the yawning politi
cal chasm which Ilea at our very feet, ready to
enguiph ma prosperous country In inevitable
ruin."
The Boston Hebrew Lender closes an article
expressing its gratitude to General Grant, as
follows: " With these facts before us, aJJ will
admit that General Grant is entitled, even if
not according to the opinion of some,, to the
votes, at least to the gratitude and respect of
the Jewish-American citizens."

The most remarkable political event of the
present campaign, took place the other night
at Columbus, Ohio. A delegation ()lover one
hundre4 workingmen, mostly Democrats, em•
ploycd at Gill's car shops, formed into procea
siou, procured a band of music and banners,
and . marched up to the Grunt club room and
enrolled their names as members of the club.
Just asothey arrived at the club rooms a pro
cession of colored men, who had been collected
by the same sort of understanding among
themselves, also marched to the club room
and joined the club.
