WHILE the Democrats are shouting "down
with OgdensburgP' they mean down with
the Republican partyp' Their leading men
are Ogdensburg managers, and are bending
all their energies to elect Cleaves and Demo-
cratic City Council. Any Republican who
votes for Cleaves ria Morgan becomes the
victim of a characteristic Democratic trick.

THE election in New Hampshire occurs in
one week from tomorrow. Let not the Re-
publican voters of that State, who are labor
ing to redeem it from the corrupt ring that
now governs it through combination of Demo
Gratis and disaffected Republicans, receive the
discouraging intelligence that Portland has
Deen capturedbythe enemy. Rememberthat
vote lor Andrew P. Morgan will contribute as
much to that result as vote for Cleayes.

VALUE OF THE SIGNAL SERvIcE-An item
OF S61, 900 for the Signal Service met with OPP
position from Gen. Farnsworth, but Mr. Dawes
came to the rescue, and Mr.. Coughlan of Cali
tornia narrated an instance of the utility of
"old Probabilities" representations in his
State 1t was telegraphed that storm was APP
preaching, whereupon citizen who owned
stock pastured on the low lands sent word to
have them driven to higher ground. This was
done, and the next morning there was eight feet
of water where the stock had been feeding, the
observations having thus saved one citizen from
a loss of $4,000. Mr.. Dawes narrated an in
stance showing the commercial value of the
signal service reports. There were one day in
the harbor of Milwaukee twenty sloops and
one steamer ready to sail. The captain of one
of these sloops, who read the weather dispatch,
was so impressed by it that he called the other
captains together, and after consultation they
decided not to sail. The steamer sailed and
was wrecked in terrible storm, but the sloops
remained safely in port. Mr. Cox of New York
and Mr., Sargent of California also bore such
eloquent testimony to the value of the weather
reports that the opposition was withdrawn and

VOLUNTARY STARvATIoN.--A man named
Bradley Grant, well-to-do farmer, near Bing-
hampton, New York, died on the 9th ultimo
of voluntary starvation. His mind had become
disordered, it is supposed, through overwork,
and he determined to starve himself to death
He began his death-fast on the 10th of Janua-
ry last, on which day he eat part of an egg
beaten up with a little milk. Of this he only
supped two teaspoonfuls. His next meal was
taken fifteen days afterwards, and consisted of
but half cup of tea and small piece of teast.
Then he went without food for twenty days.
His last meal consisted of one ounce of toast,
which he was induced to swallow on the 18th
ult. A few days before he died two teaspoon
fuls of brandy and water were forced down his
throat. This sums up all the food that passed
into his stomach during the, six weeks. His
body was reduced to perfect skeleton.

IHE ANTI-GRANT ELEMENTS-A cOrrespon-
dent Of the Boston Transcript writing from
Washington thus describes the middle of the
anti-Grant faction: .-..-g s~'0'
The nomination of the Labor Reformers of
Judge Davis for President is still the theme of
much comment in political circles. 1t is the
first move on the political chess-board of the
opponents of President Grant, and should the
Cincinnati Convention confirm the nomination
it would make it still more formidable.
There are now here large number of sore
headed and discontented Republicans, who are
working like beavers to consolidate and solidify
all OF the opposition elements in favor ofDavis's
nomination. The greatest difficulties which
these gentlemen have to encounter is the Bour-
bon element of the Democratic party They
Republican candidate for President on a plat
form whose every line is not only odious, but
stultlfieation of the very principles which they
have, been contending for during the last ten
years 1t is estimated that there is at least
one-third of the Democratic party that cannot
be carried over to any such candidate or plat
form. germ ty..Ii-tsf q .l.s 80
lbs 1t is alleged by many of the independent Re-
publicans who are disposed to join this move
est men that could have been selected They
prefer Senator Trumbull in place of Davis. and
Gov. Curtin of Pennsylvania now minister to
st. Petersburg, in place of Parker for Vice
President. This ticket, they allege, would in
nuIC tlo CdIlyiHS VI ItHuSylVaula anu ILLINOIS,
Pennsylvania is regarded as the battle ground,
and Curtin running on ticket would secure
the State. The parties who manipulated the
Cincinnati movement, some of the leaders which
are here, are exceedingly reticent as to the line
of policy to be pursued when that meeting is
held. Some of the Democrats have been CON
suited concerning the course to be taken at Gin
cinnati recommend the postponement of that
meeting and the issuing of call for conven-
ton to be held on the 10th of June. At the
present writing no decision has been reached,
but it is very likely that the suggestion will be
adopted. ~ b -,-l- i19sa1t
AS strange as it may appear, some of the
leading Democrats in Congress favor the substi-
tuition of Horace Greeley's name as Vice Presi-
dent, instead of Parker, on the ticket with
Davis. How true it is that politics makes
strange bed-fellows. q.. r-sF W.
Sam Bowles of the Springfield Republican,
who is regarded as shrewd and sag acious poll
tcian, is urging the nomination of Charles
Sumner as President by the Cincinnati meeting
There is no doubt that majority of the gem
temen connected with that movement are in
favor of MI. Summers nomination. but they
are met by the objection that the Democratic
party would not support him on account of his
extreme views on the negro question
