not consistent with what he told California delegation

the people liked his surroundings or not o was sas

when il was stated these dispatches at the time OF
the purchase OF the Confederate archives by the Admin
istratlon that tho object in obtaining thsm
WAS TO fro the Northern heart with stories
from the darkest days of the Rebellion and to give one
sided history Of Greeeys peace negotiations at Niagara
the Administration organs wero swift TO deny the
charge and still eager to assert that these docu
rnents were only bought with view to protect the
treasury from fraudulent claimants. Nevertheless,
when in oyerhaulng these documenswhch was done by
the Administration Campaign Committee at the Captol,
anything was found which it was thought Wouid
have the least bearing upon tho present cam
paign either in creating prejudice against inc
Liberal candidates in reviying Old threadDare SCH
sations OF the Rebellion it Immediately placed In the
hands Of partisan correspondents and teegaphed hence
fo aII mai NJ he certain
Administration purposes to continue to fight II OUT on
this line OF Misrepresentation and calnmny the Repup
Ican Congress Campaign Rooms the Capitol are full
Of circulars ingenously devised and selected with an
especial view to the geographical sections of the cou-
try. one set Of circulars, which go North and West
make Greeley out original Secesslonsp
stil in favor OF disuniOn, Of paying the
Rebel debt and Of pensioning the exConfederate
disabled soldiers. In others that 90 South Greeley Is not
only set DO n as Of the earliest and ercest Of Adolf
tionists-upOn whom especially rests the responsibility
for the whole warbut he is declared TO be at the pres
ent Of the most bitter end unrelentng enemies
Of that section Then there appeals to the financial
and commercial classes intended for those whose poll
tcs are limited to their business interests wherein
Greeleys alleged financial hereses exposed and all
his uternces for the last 30 years any OF these topics
tortured and fixed up TO suit the occasion. He Is
Proeconist in Free Trade districts, and In Pennsyl
vana he is declared to have sold out to the
Free Traders.
But all the above business Is honorable compared to
an undertaking in which the Campaign Committee is
now engaged Several OF It's industrious detectives are
busy under official permits In hunting up the records OF
prominent Republicans who supporting Greeley.
The Departments secured while Fitzpatrick was
stumping in Maine to find something that would tell to
that officers discred either while in the army while
acting as Minister TO Chill but in this instance nothing
could be found. Now there have been trlmped up
number Of scandalous stories which found their to
the state Department. while Cassius NJ Clay was Minis
ter to Russia and will be sent out as they
can placed in proper shape. II also contemplated
IN the same manner TO make up military record for
Banks as has already been intmated by one OF the Adj
ministraon organs here What other records to be
assaed does not yet appear but the capacity OF the
Chandler Committee this Kind or work is only limited
by the time between and election. Gen. Banks
having been informed that IN he took the stump for
Greeley his record would be published has caused II to
be understood that he has objection to having any
part OF either his military civil record made public.
Exactly why Senator Harlan went into the newspaper
busness has always been less OF puzzle TO
everybody II Is now stated that Harlan has political
aspratons and not only has eye uponbut has been
given TO understand that in the event Of Grants re-
election and consequent reorganization OF the Cabinet
he may possibly have-the portfolio which Secretary
Fish has been so long anxious TO resign As member
OF the Foreign Relations Committee, the defeated Iowa
Senator has been in fun accord with the Governments
foreign policy and, 1t will be remembered was with tho
exception Of Morton, the only member or that Com
mtee who sought to excuse Grants interference with
the domestic affairs Of Hayt.
