ATTEMPT TO BREAK Up a GREELEY MEET
GyG.-On Saturday, the eth ult., the friends
Of Greeley and Brown were invited 10 meet,
at Bishop Hill, Henry county, to hear Hon
Jonas W. Olsou, of Gslva member of the
Legislature from Henry county. Olof Olson
Esq, of Bishop Hill, was called to the chair
and the meeting was addressed By Hon. J.
W. Olson, the Kewsnee IadsDenddnt says
'u q lengthy and telling speech, which was
listened to atteu!ively and enthusiastically
chesred Aeck Albro and S. P. johnson
made several attempts to disturb the meet
ing, the latter crying "bow, vow, VOW" and
AlecS cheering, Mr. Headstrum followed
in a short speech, and closed at late hour.
Then Albro and johnson attempted to take
charge of the meeting. They made and put
the motion themselves to adjourn, and de
elsrod the meeting adjourned, ard moved
that one Jacobson be chosen chairman
After several Intellectual attempts to break
up or get control Of the meeting, the nine
GRANTEES present, led by Aeck, retired to
an ad joining room, when the Greeley meet
ing flushed its business and adjourned in
proper order.
We hear that the indignation of the good
people of Bishop Hill and vicinity is very
strong against the ungsntlemanly and ruff
danly course Of the Grant party, and that
the cause Of Gr5eley and free speech and
fair play has been greatly benefited there

AN UNFAITHFUL WIFE.-An event took
place in Davenport recently, which affords
c choice topic for scandal mongsrs and gos-
sips to harp upon, ard which has created
considerable hubbub IN the frat circles Of
that city. The facts OF the case as given by
our informant, are as follows: A young
gentleman, who shall be nsmeless, as bis
character is and always has been, as far as
we know, above reproach, had been board
ing with his wife and little daughter, for
some time st hotel, in Davenport
His business is such as to take him away
from home considerably, and for sometime
previous to the final dsroWemeHt, OF which
We shall speak he had reason to suspec: that
his wife did not live in strict compliance
with the sacredness Of her marriage yows
Oue morning, week before last he rose early
to catch the morning train. At the break
fast table be met one Of the boarders whose
character is none Of the best He noticed
that said bCarder swallowed his breakfast
aud left the dining room in haste. He
rose soon and, contrary to his usual custom
returned TO bis room, before leaving for the
train. lie found the door locked and raped
for aduiitsnce, but the door did not open
no loving wife answered his re-
quests. Finding that these tactics
would no; avail be proceeded to
effect forcible entrance. The door soon
yielded 70 his Persuasions, and be walked
into the room. His wife, evidently surpris-
Cd TO see him, Inquired Why he had re-
turuei. lie said he had come tor soue
breakias; ,icse,g She offered 10 &c. them
for him, but be preferred to help himself,
aud started for the bureau, when his wife
vas suddenly taken sick OF aud appealed 10
him to 20 for 4 doctor. He thought the Sub
.erfuge little too thin, and kept on.
CHANGING down behind the bureau, be be-
held the Emorous youth Of tue break fast
table, erouchlag to the floor in abject fear
lie placed his hand, not very gently on his
collar, and Mr.. Bonrdor sid out Of the
room, carrying with him the impress of a
boo, heel upon his voluptuous person. The
unfsith,ul spouse was ordered TO bundle Up
her dud5 in quick time. She did so and
vas taken to her fathers house. The in.

ILLNESS or DR. TRUEsDALE-PosTPoSE.
MEST OF THE Liberal MEEErSG.-The Lib.
erAl meeting called at the Court House this
evening is postponed on account of the ill.,
ness Of DR.. Truesdsls, who was expected to
address the people on that occasion. For
the past ten days the DR.. has been scarcely
able to leave his house, and twice be has
been attacked with paralysis of the left side
of his face, aud the last time affecting him
so he could not speak tor sometime. He is
seriously alarmed on account OF his health
which has been poor for the pas. year, and
may result in his withdrawal from all public
pursuits.
In the meantime committees have been
appointed to procure names for the forma.
ton Of a Liberal Club. We trust that the
gentlemen appointed will take hold Of the
matter in earnest and report such a large
list of names on next Saturday evening, as
will render the club al enthusiastic success
from the start.

How Could il DO Otherwise.

When we know that pure blood contains all
the elements of which every part of the body
is composed, each respective part taking up
such portions as designed for its own nutrition
and growth, how could expect other than
poor health, weak nerves, fiAbby muscles, weak.
ness and langour, fatigue from slight exercise,
dullnesS, palpitatiOn of the heart, gIoominess,
headache, offensive breath lack of apps tite loss of

to when good healthy blood does not exist ?

The Geneseo Republic seems to think
such men as Jas. M. Allan and J. NJ. Hors-
ford do no. amount to much politically, es-
peciRlly when in opposition to the Republic.
But when on the same side they are great
men. In the Stevens Ingersoll campaign
two years ago the Republic said Msi Allan
had no influence and it did not amount to
much which way he went. Now the fact
was the Major was the first man in the Re-
publican party in this Congressional District
VINO dared come out over his own signature
in support Of Mr.. Stevens, and Mr.. Stevens
election was more due to him than to any
other man in the district. Now, the Major
supports Greeley and Brown, and the Re
public will find to its official sorrow this fall
thst such men as Ma or Allan and Mr.. Hors-
ford will give a good account of their work
in this campaign. When the Grant DYNASTY
lose such men as those in Henry COUNTY
they are losing their best men and the Re.
public had as well treat them with becoming
respect as to cast slang phrases at them.
They are known in this County and Congress
sionSl District as genuine republicans"
and of longer standing than hobbs. Their
connection with the party dates back TO 1855.
and Hobbs only back to the Henderson.

NORTH CAROLINA.

The GRANTEES attempted 10 eolonize some
20 900 blacks into that State from the adj
joining States, to help their sinking cause,
and probably succeeded in doing something
in that line. Revenue Officer Perry, one OF
Grants tools down there, wrote to his mas
tiers in Washington, before the election
ave are doing no revenue business now,
and we have not dore anything outside Of
politics for months past. We are working
like beavers" This is probably true-but
that gam. of colonizing cannot be so sue
ces.fully played in November, for then all
the States vote on the sane day.
Ii is probable, also, that the Democratic
ticket there did not receive all the votes of
the Liberal Republicans, for the reason that
!. was nominated before the Cincinnati Con.
ventiun was held, and at a time when the
shape which the Liberal movement has now
assumed could not have been foreseen
One consequence of this is that the Anti
Grant candidates, particularly the nominees
for Congress IN certain Districts perhaps
did not have the support they might have
expected from tho Liberal Republicans had
the battle been pitched two months later.
/ Ii looks now IS though the Grantite
were attempting to count Us out OF a Vlcto

M.xxrRs or MOLINE GRAxr1rss.-The

MANNERS OF MOLINE GRANTITEs.-The
Moline Repie,o has at last confessed that the
GRANTEES of that place, TO the number of
"about one hundred persons congregated
at the head OF the street railway" on the
arrival of an excursion car which had been
ordered by citizens of that place to convey
them to the Greeley meeting 10 Rock Island.
The Recieso says that when the Liberal
Republicans, with oouutenances steAlthy
and heads hung low in self condemnation
and disgrace, mounted the platform a smile
Of laughter was not RETAINED" This is
nice writing. "A smile Of laughter" is
good Will the Rerieac now tell Us what "a
smile of crying" would be? The RerietC
denies that ANY boisterous dem y
occurred on the occasion. Citizens of Moline
inform as differently. They say that the
GRANTEES greeted them with yelis, hootiug,
cat-cAlls, and ribaldry, and that, had they
dared to, they would probably have stoned
them, as ladies in Democratic procession
were once stoned in that town-perhaus BY
the same PeoPle-at any rate by the same
sort of people. The spirit exhibited by these
zone hundred persons congregated at
the head of the street railway.
and the manner in which theil
lnciviil'Y not to say ruhisnism, il
trested by the Rerietc, are Tot commendable
nor DO we believe that any considerable
number of respectable people in Moline ap
prove either the conduct of these people OIL
the manner 10 which the Rerie,c treats tn,
