GREELEY AND BROWN.
What the Greeley Liberal Democratic
Papers Have to Say.

Papers Have to Say.
The Springfield Republican lGfeesey republican,
suggests that now that Mr. Hendricks and Cover
nor Seymour and the rest. of 'em have spoken out,
may we not hope soon 10 hear the still small voice
of Gentleman George lPendleton) or Is he yet
troubled with that TERRIBLE hoarsenessS
The New Haven Resdster Greeley democrat says
Greeley republican. clubs are springng up In oil
parts OF the State. Meriden, Waterbury, Birming-
ham and Danbury, each have them-at the latter
place numbering $50 members, and including one
OF the representatives from the town. In every
town In the eastern section Of the State there are
Greeley republicans, and In Windham county they
are estimated to number from 400 TO 700. Accord
ing to present appearances 5000 majority for Gree
ley in Connecticut Is a very modest calculation.
At the Greeley Republican Conference in Boston
last week very favorable reports were made Of the
gains for Greeley in all parts OF the State.
Gratz Brown is said to be 80 "thundering ortho-
dox" that he is in favor Of amending the constitu-
tion of the United States to formally recognize
Christianity therein.
Says the Bridgeport Comm Farmer tGreeley
democrat) -
To compare Greeley and Grant in intellectually
or morality is to draw parallel between noun
tain and mole hill, giant and ptgmy. We know
no democrats who object to Greeley In any appre-
hension Of "worse condition Of affairs" 1t is his
record as against them and their principles which
sticks In the democratic throat. Between Grant
and Greeley democrats OF the most Bourbon stripe
cannot hesitate.
The Buffalo Courier Greeley democrat) urges the
Detroit Free Press (anti-Greeey democrat) to cast
Off its opposition to the Philosopher of Chappaqua,
inasmuch as the Michigan Democratic State Con-
vention has declared in favor OF the Cincinnati plat
form. little coaxing may do no harm, for the
Free Press has never been very ferocl0us in its op
position to Greeley.
The Cambridge CMd.) Democrat Greeley demo-
crat) quotes q couple Of well known Southern airs
in its advocacy of Greeley. 1t says:-
Let us help with will to place man in author
ity who will give liberty freedom and justice to the
people Of the South. From the land OF "cinnamon
seed and cotton" comes great cry to our people
OF "My Maryland'' to help them in this the hour Of
their peril and need to rid their land and their
homes from the iron heel OF military law and war.
The Knoxville Tenn.) Press (Greeley dem0crat
remarks that ''the Grant press affects to be hor.
rlned at the willingness Of Horace Greeley to re-
ceve the hearty support OF the scores OF promi-
nent Southerners who have hitherto opposed him
and are now working for him. The organs would
be only too glad to chronicle the adhesion to Grant
or any one of his old opponents, but they don't
have the chance. The grapes are very sour"
Says the Utica IN. ~ Observer Greeley demo-
craft -
1t is seemingly certain now that the Baltimore
Convention will simply reflect and record the will
OF the people by endorsing and adopting the Gin
cinnati candidates-H0race Greeley and Gratz
Brown. We know we speak the sentiment OF al
most every democrat In Central New York whe n
we say that no other action would be acceptable.
The Dover IN. H. Gazette Greeley democrat)
says the movement In favor OF Greeley does not
arise from the schemes and wire-pulllng Of poti-
clans. In fact the people do not want him. 1t is
the spontaneous uprising among the people. They
are coming up as OF one accord from the North,
South East West and middle Of the coun-
try to demand reform. They will take this matter
into their own hands and bring about the reform
they demand regardless Of politicians and party.
The Lynchburg (va) Republican Greeley demo.
rat) says
people OF the United States, and with confidence
pect that they will approve it by the election of Mr.
have resolved to accept the present as we find
it, and join hands in the onward march to future
have taken as our leader man who has devoted
much much Of Ills fe to to uphold principles @ against
and justice we can safely cOnfde.
The Emira N w. Gazette (Greeley democrat)
mentions a case of desperate resort" the fact
that "a prominent republican in an adjoining
county recently received from the Grant headquar-
ters in New York the Of $780, to be used in the
sending of unscrupuous anti-Greeley democrats to
Baltimore"
heierrlng 10 the convention to-lnorrow the boS'
ton Post Greeley democrat) remarks that 'Tarely,
If ever, has the party sentiment been SO well un-
derstoOd in advance of a national convention; and
for that reason the adoption of the Cincinnati re-
suit will be the action OF the party itself rather
than the acquescence or recording act Of the Con-
ventiOn"
The following is the latest piece of doggerel
ground out 10y the Greeley machine:-
The philosophic Horace quafs,
From Chappaquas cool stream,
And at Ulysses softly laughs
Who slakcs his thirst with steam.
Though Greeley drinks his water cold,
(And In measure scant)
No shrewd observer needs be told,
He'll make il hot for Grant,
Yesterday was not very good day for Greeley
