HON. G. A. GROWS ADDRESS.

We publish on our outside, an excellent and
seasouable address from Hon. G. A. Grow.
TO his constituents. Mr. GROW retires from
Congress after tuelrp gears Of faithful public
service, ith a reputation second to 10 man in
the country. The people of the District which
always gave him such large majorities, have
never had occasion TO regret their confidence
in him, and have been proud on all occasions
to manifest their esteem and admiration for
his abilities and consistency.
Mr.. Grows address is seasonable, because
it illustrates the course Of the men who have
supported him, from the day he was first bro't
into the field, to the present time His friends
may well feel proud Of the record. 1t shows
consistency Of purpose aud action almost un-
parelleled in political history. While many
men have proved recreant to the great princ
pie which now underlies all political action, the
masses of this district have never for a mo-
ment swerved from their integrity The glo-
rious banner which for so many years has
Braved the battle and the Storm"
still floats as proudly. as ever, bearing the same
inscriptions, and in every contest the same raj
lying cry goes up, to enspirit and encourage
the friends of Freedom! Who shall now give
back one inch, when victory draws so nigh,
and when the country demands SO emphatical-
Iy that every patriot shall be true
Mr. Grow retireS from the field he has so
adorned, but he is not lost to the sight Of the
nation. The gallant champion of our princi-
pies, who has been so ready iD every arena to
meet the enemies of our country, deserves and
will retain a nations gratitude and admiration.
That be will long be allowed to enjoy that
privacy and rest, which are now indispensable
to his health, we do not believe, but We shall
look for his speedy recall to new scenes Of use
fulness.

succeeding in the State, but the peop lie have

able uttcrances.
In ST. Louis the Emancipationists had
a glorous victory on Monday. They have
elected c, j. Filley Mayor by over 800 ma

add that in INDIANA, where townships eec.
