TIE ATTACKS ON GENERAL HARrRANFT.

Our attention ia called by the Gazette to an ex-
tract which it makes from the Philadelphia Press
attacking General John F. Hartranft, and speak
ing OF him as the ''seryile tool" Of a corrupt
ring. As we are expected, apparently, to make
some expression Of opinion on this, we have to
say, SIMPLY, that we know General Hartranft as
well as the Philadelphia Press does, and know
him TO be an honorable, honest man. well worthy
to be Governor Of Pennsylvania. The particular
charges which the Gdzette quotes, with many
others Of like hind, have been specifically, and
conclusively dhproved. The Philadelphia Press
itself, has testified, again and again, not only to
the purity Of his private character, but to his
integrity and efficiency as State official In
1869, after he had been three years Auditor Cen
eral, it insisted on re-electing him for three
years more, and only few weeks ago, it declar-
ell that " For General HdrtranD zoe hare moth.
ing bat praise lie ,ods a gallant soldier, dnd
" he has been a faithful official, he is rddicd
Republican, and he tooud make good G0o'
" tinOr."
As the CARTE seems to be interested IN
Pennsylvania politics, perhaps it will print thii
extract, as well as those which ii has already
given. 1t may find the original expression il
the issue of the Press for April 10th, 1872, few
days before the Republican Convention nomina
ted General Hartranft. 1t is sufficient answer
We think. to the whole brood Of attacks upon
him which now issue, almost daily, to the griei
and pain OF its best friends, from the office oi

this Baltimore Convention, aud with the expect
alton OF it's adoption OF the ticket and platform
OF Greeley and Brown. With the adjOumm Mt
Of this Convention, after finishing the work it's
delegates have been instructed to do, all the
loose politicians and floating material Of the
country, having no other alternative will be
rapidly attracted to Grant or Greeley.
THE PEOPLE WILL REPuDIATE IT.
From the N. Y. Timesl
We await with confidence the judgment Of the
people on the Baltimore bargain. For week
or two after the Convention, there may be more
or less fuss and noise over the nomination OF
Greeley. But after that, the feeling OF true
Democrats will make itself felt. They will take
no part in an intrigue which reflects dshonoi
on the history of political parties IN this country
Five respectable Democrats out of every six in
this City will refuse to vote for Greeley. 30 il

Why wa. Creole, not a Bryanl E

The venerable poet and editor, William Cullen
Bryant, has issued the following card. 1t is re-
markable as a most clearly expressed statement
OF what il obviously wisely chosen position.
Why could not Greeley have had as much com
nion-sense as Bryant This is the card:
Certain journals of this City have lately
spoken OF me as one ambitious OF being nomI-
mated as a candidate for the Presidency OF the
United States The idea is absurd enough, not
only on account OF my advanced age, but Of my
untitness in various respects for the abors OF 80
eminent post. 1 do not, however, object to
the discussion OF my DEFICIENCIES on any other
ground than that it is altogether superfuous,
Hiuce it is impossible that should receive any
formal nomination, and equally impossible, if it
were offered, that should commit the folly Of
accepting it, WM. q. BRYANT.
