Mr.. Greeley'S Galaxy article on this subjec
the substance of which has been pub
lished, contains nothing significant. The
Chicago Tribune admirably answers one point
of it as follows:
Mr.. Greeley has written magazine article
tor the purpose OF demonstrating the double
propositions, ~ that the one-term principle in
The choice OF presidents is the wise one, and
~ that the people have shown their devotion
10 this principle through many successive
presidential campaigns. In demonstrating the
last of these propositions Mr.. Greeley is not
entirely successful. He cites Henry Clay and
the Wing party in thus-saith-the Lord way
which is far from being convincing, if we may say
SO without dlsrespect to d politician and par
~ long since deceased. He proceeds to show
US how James X. Polk, and Willard Fillmore.
and other nobodies, were mustered out of SER
vice by general consent at the close of their
hrst term, seeking no other cause for their fail
ure than the supposed popular devotion to the
0ne-term principle; and, when the case of
Lincoln in 1864 comes along and upsets his
rules, he lays it all TO the popular saw
about swapping horses while crossing stream.
But he must admit, nevertheless, that this one
instance is rather fatal 10 this line of argument
Notwithstanding it is only one instance; for
the friends of any presidential incumbent who
desires his denomination have buj to maintain
stoutiy an analogy between their candidate s
and that of Mr. Lincoln to make oIt a
conclusive argument. Surprising, for instance,
Grant s term were to cease next month; what
opportunities the situation would for arguing
that we are now crossing stream-ergo, that
We must not swap horses! The still unsettled
Alabama claims the momentous issue in San
Domingo, involving, perhaps war with Hay
Il, the gIganJ'c civil service reform which the
President has undertaken SO vigorously, the
syndicating" of the public debt and other
mighty enterprises with which the present ad :
ministratlon is more or less identified, would
all be loudly trumpeted as potential reasons
for not exchanging qnadrnpeds in the ener-
gency above referred to. Hence we cannot
reason safely from precedent or analogy in
this matter; fact which plainly appears When
we read in a Boston paper, arriving on the
same day with Mr.. Greeley's essay, citation
oil precisely the same historical facts for the
purpose of proving that General Grant should
be nominated again.

Just about here they are so busy grooming

very unusual opposition, Maine has gone Re-
publican, and previously disappointed the
hopes OF the Spartan band in that State, who
had hoped to "send joy TO the friends of. con.
stitutional liberty" and give such an impulse
to Democratic enthusiasm as should insure

OF 1,119,792, and by the school apportionment
just made by the State government, it appears
that there are in the State 443, 667 persous be.
tween the ages of five and twenty.on Con-
ceding that Iowa has increased from 1870 to
1871 at the same ratio proportionally as from
1860 to 1870, the scholastic population of the
State, as above given, is equal to thirty eight
per cent. of the entire population. If the same
ratio be applied to the population of the Unit

thereof aided to pursue their happiness; but

The TAMMANY Ring is thoroughly demon
allied. Mayor Halls attempt to meet the
charges OF glaring robberies by jokes failed
Time that generally obliterates the recolec-
tlon OF crimes has not in this case come TO
the relief of the thieves, but now discoveries
OF greater rascalities has augmented the in
dlgnation Of the people. Finding that no
trick will throw the people off of their track
aud alarmed at the prospect OF speedy punish
ment, like all bands of scoundrels they hope
to escape by pitching of one the ring out of
the bot. Controller Connolly known as "Slp
perry Dick" has been fixed upon as the Jonah.
He is now charged with stealing his own
vouchers to hide his crime and the crimes of
the ring, and with this pretext, the Mayor re-
quests him to resign and the World goes Tor
poor Dick with threat of dire and swift
punishment. But the Controller declines to
be martyr or vacarious Offering to the hate
OF his foes and fatty refuses to resign. He
tells Mayor Hall that His Honor has super
Vlsed and approved his (Connolly's) official
acts ana that so tar his admins .ration is
questioned, equal responsibility is attached to
to the Mayor. This is true, but it often hap
pens that rascas on telling the truth about
their confederates declare their own guilt
There is but little difference in the lot.
