1t is curious to note the tone and temper

Democrats who, in their present temper woul
as soon have one of these Republicans at Il
head of the Government as the other"
The latter says; ITO condemn Gen. Ora
and his corrupt and corrupting allies and su
pOrters is one thing; to endorse Mr. Greele

exult in the triumph of either side.
