Comicalities or the Campo aign-Grecley
ms the Modern Cinctnnatus.

Greeley on his farm makes a far more
artistic and picturesque tableau than did Gin
cinnatus, who has been doing duty in history
as the prince Of patriots and farmers for ever
so many years. The sketch of the Chappaqua
farm which we published few days ago was
a rare picture OF politics and philosophy
welded to barnyards and cabbages. Cincin-
natus never wrote anything concerning his
acquaintance with farming, and, according
to what we hear about him, was rather dull,
practical sort Of man. Greeley is an i'm
provement on the old Roman. He hides his
agricultural light under no bushel measure,
but spreads the experience he has gained in
chopping wood and raising cabbages far and
wide Then Cincinnatus had vulgar taste
for ploughing, which has demoralizing in
fluence on dress and manners. Greeleys
farming il more refined and far better
adapted for developing muscle and appetite
together.
The Tribune philosopher may be our next
President, and consequently his method of
life and of farming are now more than ever
subjects of popular interest. The farm at
Chappaqua may be destined to become a
centre of as great attraction for pilgrims
agricultural pilgrims from all parts OF the
earth--as the tomb OF Mohammed.
Mr.. Greeley is now more devoted 10 his
farm than ever. He knows he must fcrswcar
woodchopping and Chappaqus when be goes
to the White House. Ii he takes to chopping
the trees around the Presidential mansion or
turns the promenade in front into pumpkin
patch he may be impeached by the Senate and
sent back to his farm. He is aware of this
and has therefore resolved to lay in stock of
axe e-2rinding and axe-swinSing experience to
last him during his term Of Office. This is
sensible. All our Presidents have had to
use the axe more or less. Some OF them were
poor hands at it and suffered from their mex
perience Old Hickory welded the axe like q
Hercules and chopped right and left without
mercy. Horace knows nobody else he should
care to rival, and when he takes the Presiden-
tial broadaxe in his hand next March, pro-
viding everything looks lovely, he may throw
tho performances Of Old Hickory entirely in
the shade. II is safe to presume that the IN
cident in Roman history. when the politics OF
the Roman nation were going to the dogs, will
be reproduced on this occasion, and that the
delegation that calls Greeley to the helm Of
state will find him at Chappaqna with his
pants tocked inside his boots and pHir of
horny hands upon o plough. Greeley is al
adcpt in theatrical effects. II he misses carrying
out this part of the programme it viii be
owing to the fact Of the other man winning
the election. This farm at Chappaa,m Is

The PRoposEp CHANGES IN THE Swiss Con-
sTTUToN. Sunday the people Of the
Swiss cantons took vote on the proposed
changes in the constitution, and the result was
that they determined to abide by the constitu-
ton under which they at present live. The
vote, nevertheless, was very close, thirteen
cantons out Of the twenty-five only deciding
TO let well enough alone. Many Of the pro-
posed changes to the constitution are
really good. The Catholic cantons all
voted against the attentions propos-
ed, and for obvious reasons. Civil mar
riages the provision against the monastic in
stitutions of the Jesuits and some of the other
clauses, no doubt, proved Objectionable to the
Catholics, and hence their decisive vote
against anv change whatever. The defeat

END OF THE LEGISLATIVE SESSION Our
State Legislature has finished it's labors and
leaves the New York city charter and other
acts it has rushed through at the end of the
session to their fate in the hands of the Gov
ernor.. The most important OF these measures
is the charter, and OF the merits OF that we
have already spoken. Better than the former
one, which the Governor properly vetoed, and
with some things in it which we approve, this
charter if approved is to go into operation
before the mass of our citizens will be able to
understand il or know how to vote intelligently
for new city government Under these cir
cumstances it is question whether the
Governor ought 10 give II his sanction or not.
Among the acts passed was one providing
The New York herald., 1872-05-15

for the settlement Of claims against the city
and county Of New York and for paying for
sprinkling the streets. We shall take occasion
hereafter to review the work of the Legisla-
ture. This body has proved itelf incompetent,
and its adjournment will afford more relief
than its acts have been satisfactory.

THE PRESIDENT SPEAKS FOR THE EAn-
GRANTS. The President has sent message to
Congress on the subject OF afiording necessary
protection to emignnts. The argument in
behalf of these people and the recommenda-
Gons for suitable legislation must meet with
the approval of every one, and will, no doubt,
receive due consideration from Congress.
The New York herald., 1872-05-15

the present Presidential campaign as an indi-
vidual party to the contest than would be a
fifth wheel to wagon. There is no place for
democrats in the field and they could not be
held together for an instant drilling and play
ing at soldiers while an exciting engagement
was going on between two hostile forces
within their view. They would break ranks
and rush to join one or other of the combat
ants, no matter what might be the course OF
their leaders. Hence the wisest thing the
democratic Independents can do is to follow
the cue of their own organ in this
city and of Dan Voorhees, in Congress,
and to declare at once In favor
of Grant for our next President in
opposition to Farmer Greeley, the old aboli-
ZIONIST and protectionist Some Of the admin
istration organs are counselling them to make
separate party nominations, but this is all bal
derdash. There will be but two live candidates
in the feld-Grant and Greeley-and while
the Baltimore Convention mob will probably
Nyallow the Chappaqua woodchopper, white
hat, long coat, cowhide boots and ALL the
Voorhees, independents should boldly fling
forth their banner for Grant They Will take
with them the conservative financial and COM
mercial strength of the party, led by the great
inancier at the head of their National Com
mittee, and will start with an established organ
in the metropolis on their side. But if they
would succeed there must be no hesitation or
cowardice in their policy. Boldness and
energy have placed the liberal republicans
where they are. Boldness and energy will
make this new democratic revolution q bril-
liant success, and will insure the reelection of
General Grant for another term as an indie
pendent candidate, owing no allegiance to old
parties, and prepared to build up new politi-
cal organization based upon the solid interests
of the country and likely to hold power for the
next half century.

excitement was caused last night by the
attempt Of squad of police to dis
lodge a party of workmen who had
taken possession of new building on
the corner OF Clark and Monroe streets,

arrears for work done. The men were
placed there by the contractor, who
claims some $4,000 due him from the
owners. He says: 81 have at various
