Mr.. Greeley is assailed OH all sides, but
the latest bit of gossip is furnished by. IL
dispatch to the effect that zone of the
reasons for which Carl Schurz is silent on
the Greeley question is supposed to be the
belief on his part that the Axeman of Chap;
paqta is ineligible to Office, because in all
the amnesty bills passed by Congress for the
removal of political disabilities the name OF
Horace Greeley does notappear. Hisvolul-
tary advice and encouragement which he
gave to the seeding States now countagainst
him, for M matters stand no person can hold
any office whatsoever who cannot make oath
that he has never given any aid or counte-
nance, counsel or encouragement, to parties
engaged in avowed hoStilities against the
Government Of the United States, and that
he has never yet aided or voluntarily sup
ported any pretended government, author
ity, power, or constitution within the United
States hostile or inimical thereto. 1t IS well
known that Horace Greeley cannot, without
perjury, subscribe to such al oath, and his
ineligibiIity to the Presidential Office is there
fore established"
