GRANT CLVIIS.
. l'hi•Jooremeut started last week to.organ
in• a Grant Club, by the " weak-kneel, bow
backed apil sunked-eyed" element of the
Hadirals, has had the effect of stirring up
the Lowry men to a cannier movement; and
on Monday evening they formed what they
_call the "Young Men's Grant Club" of the
-city. The officers, managers and followers
arc all persons identified with the Lowry
wing pi' the party, • and comprise sonic of .the
`shrewdest politiCians lit the Radial ranks.
Mot of them are gentlemeti - of miture years,
and the idea of calling themselves the "Young
Nlens Club," is looked upon as a capital joke.
Whether the organization is expected to be
kept up permanently, or merely intended for
the purpose of forcing a compromise out of
the other: side, future i•vent4 will disclose.
The managers .of "the great, original and
only genuine" Grant club - held their meeting
:is announced,' on Tuesday evening, Only
about fifty persons were present, among
whom were a fair sprinkling of Lowryites,
but the larger portion were "Weak-knees" of
the most incorrigible stripe. The Chairman
of the 'committee on organization, C. W.
Kelso, Esq., made a written report, in which,
after landing Grant to the seventh Heaven,
John H. Walker, Eq., was named as Presi
dent, With a curious mixture of Lowryites
and " bow-backs "-for the other offiees-. - It is
evident from this that efforts are being made
forc'a reconciliation between the Kilkenny
billions, and we should nbt be surprised to
see a consolidation of the two clubs before
long. Mr. Walker made a speerb ; in return
for the unprecedented honor showered upon
him, Liking emphatic grounds in , favor
of harmony, and declaring that while Grant
wa-, his first choice, he would support any
candidate that the N'ational Convent kin would
nominate. lie was followed by Messrs. Bab
bitt, Douglass. King and DeCamp, who' took
substantially the same position i ns the Presi
dent. We have the authority or the Repub
lican for saying that Mr. Babbitt
_spoke "elo
muently," that Mr. Douglass "foll Owed earn
estly," and that Messrs. King and DeCamp's
remiirks were " appropriate and interesting,"
iyhich was unquestionably the fact, especially
as-i-egards the first named gentle Man. The
meeting, not withstanding the eloquent, earn
est and appropriate speeches, was cold, lame
and heartless, and the managers looked' as if
they were aware of participating in the hugest
Circe of the century.
It is understood that in case the two or
ermizations fail 'to unite, a number of clubs
will soon Le e•:tatili.hea. 'A' Boy's Grant
Club, an Old ,Gentlemen's • Grant Club, a
Married Women's Grant Club, a Single La
dies' Grant Club, and several others are bad
ly needed, to aecomniodate all the hues, fac
tions, sexes and conditions of decaying Radi
calism, and afford each class a special source
of consolation over the manifest certainty of
defeat next year, let their candidate be
as hom he may.'
'lnt: daily Republican, in response to a
paragraph in the' last Observer, distinctly
emuliates the idea that it is the organ of
any faction of its party, and claims to have
been ,carted with the sole object of harmon
ng the interests of the Radical organization
in the district. Il quotes from its introduc
tory editorial, to show the .position it oceu
i,ics, the following sentence:
41 - While the Republican AN ill ,be, so
tar as we shall have the ability to make it,
a true party paper, loyal to the best interests
of the party which it will be used to sup
port and sustain, it will not and shall not
lic•i•ome the organ of any man, coterie or
clique."
We are- entirely willing to give our neigh
b,,r the benefit of its explanation, and to
tarnish it the same prominence ,of position
occupied by the article which led to it. But
in doing so, we must be permitted io express
spine hesitancy in accepting the statement
tolls full extent, while the Republican con
tinues to display' so 'ninth inconsistency be
tween ifs acts and professions. Our cotem
porary has no been in existence sonic two
weeks, and in that brief period has succeed-
,a in impressing the community with rather
a po-itive opinion as to the relation it intends
to maintain as regards political and local
atlitirs generally. Its ill-concealed repug
mince to Mr. Walker as a candidate for Con
gress, its flings at the other party journals,
its diQsatisfaction with' the organization - of
the original Grant club, ind its half whining,
half denunciatory tone respecting the anti-
Lowry idement of the_ party in the county,
l‘.ive -light room to doubt the source whence
it , deriies its inspiration, or the men
whom it wishes to benefit. Were these facts
not sufficleiitt the class of gentlentem who
take most i•oneeru in the new paper's wel
titre, anti the character of its communications,
afford confirmatory evidence that places the
gite , tion beyond the possibility of a doubt or
denial. The motives which caused the es
t tblishment of the Republican, and the in
tittencCs which surround it,are well knimn
16 the (immunity, and render it certain that
it must as inevitably lake its stand - openly
upon one side of the party line, as the Diq
atch air? Gazette have long been arrayed
upon the other. The sooner it dues so, the
les , . difficult it gill be to manage, the more
certain will be its .Auecess, the greater its
influence, and the slighter the opportunity
L atrorded it, enemit , for tmpleaaanl Crillekl».
'Far be itifroin us to place our cotemporary
in a ielation.that will be disagreeable to it,
or enabb2 it to charge us with a disposition
to misrepre , ent its purposes.. But its reply

FEARS OF A NFsato OrTtear.i.x.—lt is re
ported from Washington that the most
alarming accounts hltve reached General
Grant's headquarters from all parts of the
South, !ditching the defiance of the negrocs.
It is found that while the whites of
the South have been deprived of their arms
by various means, the blacks nreifully armed
and equipped and ready to take the field.
The Radicals have worked with all the in
genuity of the devil, and the result is that a
perfect reign of terror prevails in' every
Southern family. General Giant has sent
orders all through the South to the military
commruiders to preserve the peace at all
hazards. When the extent of the machina
tions of the black Radicals are undsrstood,
it will fill the North with horror. j

A TERRIFIC TORNADO OF POPULAR
INDIGNATION I
The , election returns of Tuesday are glo
rious even beyond those of October.. The
Democratic cause, everywhere in the as
cendant, and the - returns Exhibit one' Of the
most extraordinary revolutions in popular
sentiment ever seen in any period of the
wortra history. New York and New Jer
sey have been swept by overwhelming ma
jorities ; in Minnesota and Wisconsin the
Radical predominance has been seriously
shattered, if not entirely demolished ; Kan
sas has repudiated the leading Radical hob
by; and even in Massachusetts the proscriptive
ideas which seemed until lately to be too
firmly established to hope fora chance, have
been buried beneath a terrific deluge of pub
lic odium. The ball started by Connecticut
last spring, taken up by California, and then
by, Ohio and Pennsylvania, is rebounding
through the length and breadth of the land.
and soon every important Northern State
will lie surrendered into the hands of the.
victorious Democracy. The midnight dark
ness of fanaticism is dispelled; and again
tloi National emblem Waves proudly beneath
a clear azure sky. The hackneyed party.
cries - have lost their force; the 'sober second
thought" of the people has returned; the era
of Malice anti proscription has given way to
one of cimunon sense and wise statesman
ship ; and a brighter and prouder career
=stazol , "fortil in the prospects for the futuni.
Now lei every Democrat buckle on his ar
mor, and prepare• for the still greater battle
of next year. Every indication looks en
couraging, tint we must not expect to redeem
the nation! entirely without a desperate
effort. Thti elections of this yearshow what
may be done w len Democrats make proper
exertions, and they are one'-half as active
trout this time Mt as duty to the cause re
quire:, the campaign of 1P,C03 will forever
wrest from hands of malicious and op
pressive Rudidalism the power which delu
sion and eitnstancea has enabled it to
wield for -the last six years, to the serious
damage and almost min of the country. Be- -
low we give jthe returns which have:been
received up to the hour of publication :
I NEW YORK_
In the Empire State the revolution has
been compldte, and is perfectly astounding.
The Radical majority of 14,000 year has
given place to a Democratic one estimated at
from tri,ooo to 40,000. The vote of New
York city is 86,548 Democratic and only
25,373 Radical, a majority of 61,175, being
14,000 more than last Year, and the largest
ever given. I Brooklyn gives a majority of
11,001; Buffalo 1,300; and Albany 1,600. In
every portion of the State the Democratic
gains are heavy, and several counties that
have heretofore been regarded as reliable for
the Radicals have been completely revolu
tionized. The lower House of the Legisla
ture hasa probaemocratic majority, and
we gain nine members of the Senate, but not
sufficient to givetis control of the body. In
Buffalo and Erie county the whole Demo
cratic ticket is elected, with one exception,
LATER.—The latest returns say the Tri
bune concedes 40,0011 majority to the •DelllG
erais, and the Buffalo Courier thinks it may
be 50,000. A Democratic majority in the Att
sembly seems certain, and 15 of the 32 Sena
tors. In the adjoining strong Radical dis
trict of Chautauqua and Catiamug,us, Mr.
31.4rris, the Democratic candidate for Senate,
is elected, there having been two opposition
candidates in the field.
NEW JERSEY.
In no section of_ the country has the sue
•eess of the Democracy been more gratifying
thaft in the State of New Jersey. The issue
was made squarely by the Republicans in
their State Convention, pledg,ing the party to
. the enforcement of negro suffrage, not only
in the south, but in their own State. The
Democracy met them on their issue and have
gloriously swept everything before them.
One-third of the members of the Senate in
that•SGue were chosen, am all the members
of the lower House. Thejeturns show-that
the Democrats have swept the field. They
will have a majority in lath branches of
.the
Legislature, and:return lion. John P. Stock
ton to his place in the UnitedlStates Senate,
from \Oriel' he was ejected by one of the
most shameful acts of party meanness ever
perpetrated. :Sew Jersey can be reliably
counted on for the Democratic Presidential
candidate next year. In 18116 New Jersey
gave the'lladicals a majority of 2319.
MARY LA.N D
Returns are meagre;but indicate a Demo
cratic majority larger than ever before given.
Baltiniore hasincre;oed her Democratic uaa
jority to MOW, a gain of tl,()0 since hot
month: A number of heretofore Radical
month have " ~wung round the circle," in
to the Ileinocratic column. Every official
Stitt. po-ition will be tilled by Democrats.
Lincoln's majority In 1864, when bayonets
ruled the day, was 7,414.
MASSACHUSETTS
In Massachusetts the issue was wholly up
on the liquor question, the Radicals taking
the side of a prohibitory law, and the Demo
crats, stn.tained by thousands of Republicans,
favoring the license syment. The tight was
-not made so much on the State ticket as on
member, of the Legislature. The Radical
State. officers are re-elected by 'vastly reduced
majorities, Jet! the license men have carried
a majority of both houses of the Leghliture.
In the Senate 28 members are forlieense and
d fin.' prohibition : in the lan.e 1J for
li
cense and 44 for prohibition., Bnlloek, the
Radical candidate thr Governor, will proba
bly have 25,000 majority ; lasi year the State
u'ag married by the Radieati ! by 65,000. In
Boston, which has generally given from
4,000 to 5.000 'Radical. majority, Adams, the
Democratic and 4 lieense eandidatesfor Gover
nor, has 1,500 majority. The latter gentle
man was also a candidate for Legi.lature
from Quincy, and is• elected by a gratifying
vote.
Ii AN c•A4
In Kansas there was no election for tiltate
Queer`, the is.sue lying upon' the proposed
Constitutional Amendment giving women
and negroes the right of suffrage. The State
has been regarded as so completely Radical
ized that the negro amendment was certain
of success, but in this we are agreeably dis
appointed. Even the Kansas extrezneit;; are
not willing to sustain at home what they
huie foreeil upon the South, and the amend
ments have been Toted down by from coo
t o 10,000 t najortty. Out Af 2,t309 ..wo+Ais in
Leavenworth, negro suffrage !eaeiiied only
700. • In several counties which the Radicais
have herehifore considered as safe for their
side, the Deniocreia elect their candidates for
the Legislature. `l'j►e Palliptii UitloritY Was

Seventyfive of the largest towni and titles,
including Milwaukee, snow—ii net Democrat.

Fairchild (Itad.) for Governor, is probably
elected by a intuit reduced vote. The Leg
islature'ls Radical, hut Hai Delnocrat4 have
gained several members,
MINNESOTA.
The latest returns from Minnesota. are da
ted on Tuesday at, midnight, and claim the
State for the Radicals by a small majority.
The !het of no further news having been re
ceived confirms us in the belief that the
Democrats have either carried the State, or
that the vote is very close. The negro suf•
frage amendment has met with the same fate
as in Ohio and Kansas. In 1866, the Radi
cal majority was n little over 10,000. -
POPE AT MS OLD TRICKS.
The necounts which reach us froM Geor
gia, relating to what is called the dection lu
that Statt: 2 are of a nature to excite the indig
nation . of all honest men. Lt appears that
the voting, .curb as it was, on the first and
second days -was adverse to me proposed
convention, and so General Pope ordered
the polls to be kept open for another day, to
give the negroes a chance to turn the scales
in favor of the Radicals. The order was of
course obeyed, and the result will he a ne
gro constitution, and the entire subjugation
of the whites of that State ton horde of ig
"norant and degraded blacks; And that con
dition of things will exist until in their wrath
the people in all the States shall unite in
hurling:_from_the- high places of power the
p4petrators of so great an outrage upon the
dignity of civilized manhood. It is a grati
fication 1.1 know that 'hut few of the whites
in Georgia have taken any part in •the farce.
enacted in their midst.
The Washington Intelligeneer has a bitter
article denouncing., General Pope, referring
particularly- to his administration of affairs
in Forida, and charging him with perpetra
ting gross frauds and shameless swindles.
It gives what it alleges are the returns from
the State census, taken this year, and charges
that FOpe has conducted The registration in
such a manner as not only to overthrow the
white majority of 8,000, as shown by the
census, but to give a negro majority of - over
4,000. •
Tin-: "Republican" has gone to work ener
getically to break down the"fietions" which
it complains of existing in the Radical ranks
of this et:llmq% The following paragraph
probably hits u great deal harder in some
quarters than people would at first sight im
agine:
"A party cursed with such factions is
cursed indeed. 4 great and intelligent par
ty should not tolerate them. Let theßepub
lieans of Erie county pay heed to this.
Whatever political action--whatever pro
jects, may be proposed, let all be done fairly
and openly, so that all who wish may know,
and understand, and bear a part. We are
strong, but we have no occasion to fritter
away our strength by participating in the
quarrels and bickerinis of factions. If some
wen hate other men and want to pull them
down, or keep them down; if some men are
ambitious, and want to be alwayson'the top;
if some men are vindictive, or dyspeptic,
and want to be always abusing somebody ;
if some men are meddlesome, and want to
'be alwayis interfering in somebody else's
business,—wherein does all this concern the
masses of the Republican party, who only
desire to see the best men elected to office,
and the principles and measures-of the party
triumphant ? Let those who 'wish, quarrel
and bicker—aspire to office—abuse their
neighbors—meddle in ethers' affairs; our
simile duty as Republicans is to let them
alone, and go on Ur the accomplishment of
the great purpose of the party—the securing
of righteousness and just government to the
whole country, and the assurance of free
dom and full civil and political rights to all
its inhabitants."
All very well, neighbor, but ign't the poli
cy you are purquing to put down "faction,"
the very one befit calculated to build it up?
THE Erie Observer, the — oigan of the Dem
oi.rats in Eric county. shows its color. It
says, leading Democrats made efforts for the
nomination of Lowry, to make the victory of
the' Democratic state- ticket a, probability.
'Pretty revelations these !—lkhinahi Spertator.
We 'Cannot tliipk our extemporary wriuld
misrepresent us intentionally, and will sup
pose, in charity, that it has Misread our arti
cle. - We did" not say that "lending Demo
crats made efforts for the nomination of•Low
rv, to make the victory of the Democratic
State ticket a probability." What we did say
was simply this: That (!fter Lowry'; notni
nation, the active . Demuerats resisted an at
tempt to place a Republican in the field
against himn.s a union and independent can—
didate, believing that the effort would only
result in failure; while having the effect of
bringing out a full Republican vote, and ren
dering the chances of Judge Sharswood's elec
tiOn fless certain. They sensibly argued that
every Republican who voted for the inde
pendent Republican Candidate would also
vote: their State ticket, and feeling convinetxl
that the contest would be close, preferred to
pursue such a policy as would create nb
ez
,eitentent, and allow the (Us...ea-stied voters to
remain at home, This is what we said, and
it is to be hoped that our cotemporary will
give 'us the benefit of the correction.
1850, in one Congressional, District in
Ohio, there were eleven thousand voters who
cotttd not read, and the Democratic ticket ob
tained nine thousand majority, and this vote
carried the State for Buchan:tn.—Erie
Oct. 28.
The Warren Ledger, commenting on the
above, makes this capita) point: -yet
the party for which the Dispatch fifes, have
consumed two sessions -of Congress, to the .
neglect of the interests of the whole nation,
iii attemptsto make voters out -of six hund
red thousand black men, four - hundred and
tiny thousand of whom cannot read, and the
hundred-and fifty thousand of then' are de
pen.lant tier what they eat on appropriations
of public • nmey, and the charities of the
Northern people. These charities last win
ter amounted to three millions of dollars.
Three-fourths of the whole black population
of ten Stale eanno.tread, over five-sixtlus of
them are on the town, and yet the Republican
party have given nearly all their efforts f6r
two years to give to this ignorant pa;uperisin

best day it became evident to the Captain
that in the hurry of departure, a poor selec

consequently a new deal was had. J. W. D.
was continued as first mate, from his com

It being considered expedient. to lath- some

rascally Copperheads attacked them, Lieut.
W. W. L. received the appointment of "Capt.
Marines;" a good appointment, as he had
been in the retiubtr army, and thoroughly ed
ucated in the scienceof War. The cook, d.
li. W., was found deficient in every particu
lar, and a mutiny was feared in case he was
continued; some waxed ends were found in
the "Loyal" soup, and an old manuscript,
supposed to be a sermon,. AvilS found in the
Abolition chowder,' besides sundry other
short-comings, calling for a change. -S. B. 8.,
of Waterford, was appointed in his stead,
and inunediately entered upon-hid duties.

the crew were to remain for future revision.
The'first night being- too dark to navigate,
they tied up at "Negro:Point." Here the old
feud between the "straight-outs" and the
"weak-kneed anti bow-backed" was revived,
and a general _melee Commenced. After a
severe contest, the "straight-oats" became the
victors. Here, now, was a quandary ; what
was to be done? Peace would not prevail
with the two factions 'on board, so Capt. L.

Plaindealer had been able to learn.them, are
these: The young will! of Mr. Seinsoth a

birth to her finarth child, last Friday after

went down town to procure some medicine,
and in Ins absence two negroes foiced their

The black fiends immediately seized and
ravi.thed Mrs. Seinsoth —having previously
crammed a handkerchief Into her month to
prevent her front crying out. The unfortu

among the Germans and other citizens of

two months ago, at ,Bellevue, lowa, he saw
some young ladies looking at a steamboat
which was in .thcactof landing. He became
interested - in one of them, a. beautiful and
highly ryspectable girl of seventeen years.
He asked s. gentletnallito la hint 1110 flame

in an engagement ..bf mattriago. About a
