Who is a Booty Drunkard.
TO The Editor Of The Werld.

40 Me EdHOT ~ me HtTM:
Sir--I find the following in the New York
Times Of to-day:
The precise degree of hilarity 10 which
Graiz Brown attained during his somewhat re-
cent demonstrations in New Haven, Conn
seems difficult to determine. Martin r. Gum
| writes TO the Palladium that be did not tell
the reporter for the journal named that Gov
ernor English said Governor Brown was
." boozy drunk" The Palladium responds
that . the Photographic phrase booty drunk,
though strictly accurate as describing Gratz
Browns condition, was not, as correctly stat
| ed above used by Governor English
| Personalities of the above description ore
poor weapons to use in political campaign.
But when two Grant organs Of the standing
| of the PatladiuHa and the Tines unite in cir
culating thei report that Gratz Brown was
@ boozy drunk" at New Haven, can any fair
minded person blame the. opponents of Presi-
dent Grant for retorting the charge of drunk
| enness Is it wise in those who support a
confirmed, sodden, and filthy drunkard for
the chief office in the nation 10 resort TO such
accusations against others?
When at Buffalo On the occasion of Andrew
Johnsons famous ''swiDg round The circle
General Grant was the guest of the Mayor of
that city One of the handsomest rooms in
private mansion that has not its equal in ele-
gance and taste in The United States was pre-
paTtu Dy tne mistress. OF the mouse Tor the
accommodation of the Lieutenant General
Grant was in such helpless, disgusting state
Of drunkenness when he arrived there as to
necessitate his retirement. After be had been
left in a heavy sleep of intoxicaton in the room
he revived sufficiently TO eject the bad liquor
he had imbibed over the embroidered coyerlet
and lace curtains, then rolling out on to the
floor he still more srevoitntly disgraced him..
self to the injury of the velvet carpeiing.
While on the subject, j may state that
Charles Goddard, the late Captain of The Port,
has in his possession letter written by Mr.
Rice Of Boston, giving graphic description
Of Grants drunken condition al the first iubi-
lee, when jim. Fisk and other friends were
compelled to surround him on the platform to
prevent his disgrace from becoming public
The letter describes the orgies at Josie Mans
fields house before Grants departure for Bos-
ton. The names of the parties are given in the
letter, and include President Grant, Fisk, and
Josie Mansfield; a well-know n faro bank keep
er who subscribed portion of the amount for
the purchase of Grants cottage at Long
Branch, and divorced actress who is now
'star" at that watering place a manager of
theatre in New York now undergoing extern
sive repairs, and theatrical lessee; a New
England general of volunteers celebrated
finaBcer now under cloud, and n fair friend
and Others do not remember. Would it not
be just, in response to such gross personal as
saults as those in the Palladium and Times 10
publish this letter with the names of the par
ties in full?

Fun AHEAD. We understand the Radicals
in this Congressional District intend runnino
a candidate for Congress in opposition TO The
Democratic candidate This looks like busi.
oess aud is rather hazardous undertaking in
a district which gave something over 2 0CO
majority in 1870. Batw suppose they are
counting on heavy gains from those who are
opposed to the nomination of Greeley and
Brown. In the face of such a malority there
car be no other controlling reason. We are
free to confess there was some surprise and
dissatisfaction at the no animation of Mr.. Gree
ley, but on the second thought. and a calm de-
liberation of the whole matter this dissatisfac-
ton is fast giving way, and the ''true and
tried old Democrats in Montgomery will moi
separate from their fellows 10 this time ftrial
and probable triumph. There are none ready
to go over to the enemy, and il the opposition
are relying upon aid from that quarter, we
thirk they are calculating without their host
Further, it is quite probable there are some
good and honest Republicans who have got
tired and disguised with the wasteful ex,raya-
gance of the present administration aud their
warfare upon the South, may give their sup
port to 'the man Of peace instead of the man
on horseback So in the account of profit
and loss, as between parties, the balance sheet
might foot up heavier percentage of loss TO
the Radicals than they are taking note of.

The FAiR.-From what we can gather the
prospects of the coming Fair of The Montgonl-
cry County Agricultural Society are very fiat
tering. The people--those with whom we
have conversed-seem TO be in the right humor
for it. They are encouraged by the good crops
which have been harvested, and the country
folks will do their part. Now let the town
people do theirs. Let them get up everything
they can to add interest TO the occasion
In this way BY cooperating with the country
people, they can make the Fair success. Let
all do their part, and good part, too, not
waiting for others TO come forward-let all be
up and doing The committee, we presume,
will have the grounds in ample order, and not
put off to the last hour, that which ought to
have been done some days before. Success or
failure depends upon the exertion used.
