GRANT PLAYED Our -0n Thursday
night the philanthropist Horace Gree
ley, in his speech TO tho Tammany
Republican General Committee, nomi
mated Gen. Grant for re election.
This settles Grant No man that
Horace Greeley had nominated for
tho Presidency beforehand was ever
adopted by nominating Convention.
There was never any probability
that Grant would get the Republican
nomination fer a second term; and
Grocley's advocating him only proves
that bis case is hopeless. Only polili-
cal fools and aspirants for Office at his
hands can talk at this time of day
about ever running Gen. Grant for
President again.-N. Y. Sun.

for parading United States soldiers at
the election polls in the State last Dc.

SHAMEFUL President Grant in his
lato message, in advocating the Sar
Domingo job, says that either tn,
Cubans or the Spanards in Cuba must
be exterminated. His precise word.
are at is to settle the unhappy con
dition of Cuba and end an extcrmina
tory conflict"
From a man in Gen. Grants place
this admission is simply shameful
He admits that in neighboring
American island, down trodden peo,
pie, native of the soil, who have risen
in the most holy Of causes, are to be
exterminatcd His language admits
no othor Interpretation for, from his
own oft repeated assertions that the
Cubans have never done anything to
deserve recognition as belligerents, il
is evident that the possible extermi.
nation Of the Spaniards in Cuba has
never entered his mind.
We recommend to him, as healthy
and instructive occupation for his
leisure hours, the histories Of the wars
by which the Central and South
American republics secured their inde.
pendence.-N Y. Sun.

LOYAL TAcTIcs.-Senaior Harris,
Of Louisiana, has been sued by Gcner-
al +. ]. Heron, for money loaned
him to secure his election to the
United States Senate. This is q nice
erposc Of the morale Of the Radical
party. The money was borrowed and
spent in buying the votes Of negro
members of the Legislature. ave
suppose" says the Cincinnati Enquirer,
"when pushed to the wall Harris will
plead that General Heron loaned the
money knowing that it was to be used
in bribing public officials, which, being
contrary to good morals and public
policy, cannot be recovered by suit at
law The whole affair shows the dc.
moralization of politicians, and the
sad condition into which society, that
should be considered honorable, has
fallen. Why shouldn't negroes be ad.
mitted as equals where such as Harris,
Butler and their likes are allowed
