CAMPAIGN NOTES.

'Gen. Grant has never been de-
feated, and he never will be-
Horace Greeley.
Grant wiU be far better qualified
for his mOmeRtous trust in 1872
than an lS6S.-Horace Greeley.
Brinkerhof' is in danger Of be-
coming the champion calculator of
the nineteenth century, '---
Wonder how much faith Demo
Gratis put in Liberal profession of
strength about these times?
"Ciose up" shout the Greeley pa
pers. The Greeley party is closed
up and closed out.
Georgia and Hamilton County are
the only two States on whose cleo
toral votes prudent Greeley men are
betting now. 'o-
South Carolina is the last State to
add its name to the Republican py-
ramid-last, because an opportuni-
ty has not been offered other States,
since her election, to vote.
The whipped Greeleyites set up
croaking about frauds" The popu-
lar verdict stamps Greeleyism as the
Greatest political fraud of the age,
says the Syracuse Journal. p"
As Brutus slew Caesar, not that
he loved Caesar less. but Rome
more, SO the Democracy still affect
to cling to Greeley-not that they
hate Greeley less, but Grant more.
,,..:Never say die" say the Greeley
ties. 1t is perhaps as well. not to
say it, but you will die the same.
In the eloquent language of Pike,
THAT mules eye is sot.'' .s
There are evidences that the con
federatesg will put forth redoubled
exertions in the remaining weeks of
the campaign. Republicans should
not relax their vigilance.
There is indeed something terri
BILE in the rush and roar of the hur-
ricane. It has so completely swept
away the old white coat and hat that
the remnants will never more be
visible to the naked eye.
If some young agriculturist
should inquire of Horace Greeley
where the biggest beets could be
raised lie need not tell him to go
West,'' but he would probably di-
rect him. to try Pennsylyania.
The Cincinnati Commercial gives
itnpa 1t says: "The October cleo
tiohs must he accepted as indiea-
tiOns of sthe reelection of General
Grant. All the world sees this, and
denials are vain.
Some shrewdly malicious Repub-
licans are trying to persuade Gree
iey.to make an extensive Southern
tour. About dozen of his awk
ward, --indpt speeches, they think,
would send in the November returns
from that region solid for Grant.
Mr. Greeley hoasted in one of his
recent7speeches: "Ohio is with u.s."
'Inifiana will be with u.s." "Pennsyl-
vania is ours" The people Ito not
want the Sage as President. Could
he get an engagement anywhere as
a prophet?
Miss Nellie Grant is en- route for
theUnited States. She will scarcely
arrive in time for the guerillas of the
Democracy to make use of the Eur
opean styles embraced in her toi-
lette for the purpose of campaign
documents.
In an interview with New York
reporter, Mr.. Greeley expressed
the fullest confidence in the success
of the Liberal ticket in November.
If Mr. Greeley had lived in the Noa
chian period he would have consid-
cred the deluge only an ordinary
affair, and tried to persuade the
"ancient mariner" out of fhe notion
of building the ark.
"Open the door and let me come
sin" is the song the Liberals are
singing on the Republican thres-
hold. Those who have not made
themselves offensive by throwing
stones and making discordant noise
can wipe their shoes and pass into
the back room, but the others must
seek their winter lodging elsewhere.
If the Chappaqua woodsman and
his friends would now do some
thing heroic, to cover up their de-
feat, let them leap into the "bloody-
chasm," after the manner of the
young Roman. Curtus, and thus
give the public chance to forget
them. The present generation
would willingly consign further
consideration of these gentlemen to
history and posterity. ..-..

of clean and unclean birds, all
crowded together; so that one can
with difficulty get out clean bird,
without pulling out an unclean bird
with it.
