Another Convert 10 Grant.

The New Yorker (Democrat) which
has been leaning towards Greeley for
some time, on Saturday came out posi-
lively for Grant in leading editorial,
in which it said:
1.-The unexpected results of the Gin
clpnati Convention, and the events
following in its wake, which were fitly
crowned by the nomination of one OF
the founders and Oldest leaders of the
Republican party by the regular Demo
cratic natioual convention, and It's
ready and jealous advocacy by those
adherents of the Democracy who have
forfeited all claims to public conf
dence, have utterly destroyed all
expectations and hopes of great
national and truly republican form OF
party, and now, two months and hall
after the failure of the reform move
ment, we are face to face with an en-
tirely different state of affairs. The
Democratic party, as such, tries hard
to obtain control of the national affairs
in a manner, and through an instru-
ment, the novelty of which justities
4he apprehension that there is serious
danger ahead Under these circum-
stances we cannot but deem it lncum-
bent upon all adherents of the Repub-
l1can party to rally once more firmly
and resolutely round the old party flag,
and unite in supporting the Presiden-
tial ticket nominated by the regular
Republican convention at Phlladel-
Ohla

Ex.Congressman Claiborne, OF Missis-
slppi. for Grant.

MANY of the old-time Democratic
leaders of Mississippi refuse to support
Greeley. Of one OF them the New
Orleans National Republican thus
speaks: Prominent among these Is
Hon. J. T. H. Claiborne, OF Natchez,
who for some years represented that
district in Congress. While in jack
son. a few days since, Col. Claiborne
publicly declared that he should sup
port Gen. Grant for the Presidency,
and pledged himself that that support
would not be lukewarm, and he advised
his Democratic friends to do likewise.
He denounced Greeley as the lifelong
enemy OF the South and Southern men.
and as totally unfit and unworthy to
receive the suffrage of Mississipplans.
Col. Claiborne is a Democrat of the
jackson school; he has widespread
personal influence, and, BESIDES 10
one of the most accomplished anu
forcible writer's in the South. for
a number of years he has kept aloo1
from an active interest in pol1tlcs, olt
the approaching contest has detef-
mined him to WELD his pen ana lhiio
ence for the best interests OF ms lei
low-citizens, which, in his Judgment,
can he attained by the election OF
Grant, in preference to Greeley, whose
elevation TO the Presidential chair he
would regard as national calamity.

More Cheering News from iIain,.


The Lewiston Journal has received
cheering reports of the political sit1a-
tion in Maine, and says as the canvass
develops the prospects constantly
brighten. Speaking in detail it says:
g In Plscataquls county only three per-
sons who have been counted as Repub-
licans have declared for Greeley. The
party is unite for Grant and Wilson,
and there is not little dissatis action
among honest Democrats with the
Zebra ticket. Aroostook County will
give stronger vote for Grant and
Wilson than ever before Diligent in
quiry and advices from vari ,us parts
of the country have developed only
one Republican who declares for
Greeley, and he has grievance Ad-
vices from other counties are quite as
favorable. Our advices from all parts
Of Androscoggln county are favorable
in the extreme. Here and there in
some towns may be found an isolated
Republican, who, by some casual re-
mark, may have gwen rise to sus-
picion that he did not intend to vote
for Grant, but we hear of several such
instances in which those said to have
been d1saffected now come out frankly
and avow that they shall vote for
Grant and Wilson. 1t will thus be
found that the Republicans who pro
pose to throw Grant and Wilson oye1-
board are few and far between. The
dimlnution of Democratic brag is al
ready quite noticeable"

Thaddeus Stevens on Mr.. BoutwelI.

The Lancaster Pa) Express says
that IN It's judgment the best guaran-
tee OF Grants reelection is to be found
IN the claims of his administration up
on the confidence and support of the
business interests of the country. The
strength of these claims is fully and
ably set forth IN the facts and figures
cited from recent speech of Mr..
BoutWeli's, and which show how rigidly
the President has adhered to the finan-
clal policy he originally laid down, and
how successful he has be@n. AS a re-
suit, the debt has been deefeased three
hundred millions of dollars, the taxes
have been lightened and the tax-gath-
erer virtually dispensed with, the pub
lie credit has been restored, and we
stand upon the threshold of o resump-
tlon OF specie payments. These are
truths gainsaid by no one. They have
won for the administration the conf
dence of the business men of the coun-
try, and OF the great body of the peo-
pie, W no appreciate the gratifying pic-
ture OF prosperity and honor the ma
ton now presents,
The perusal of Mr.. Boutwell's speech
recalls an interesting incident which
illustrates the late Thaddeus Stevens
remarkably correct judgment in -esti-
mating public men, as well as the per
tinacity of President Grant in seeking
the right man for the right place, and
his firmness in sustaining him against
the clamor of the jealous and disap-
pointed. At the time of the appoint
ment of Mr.. McCuJloch as Secretary of
the Treasury by Mr.. Lincoln, on the
retiremant of Mr.. Fessenden, gen
tleman inquired of Hon. Thaddeus
Stevens as to the fitness of Mr..
McCulloch, who was unknown as
public man. Mr. Stevens replied that
Mr.. MeGulloch had shown some finan
cial ability as Comptroller of the
Treasury, 6 but" said he, " there is
but one man known to me who DOS
sesses all the qualifc ttions necessary
for the place-there may be Others,
but [ don't know them. That man is
George Boutwell, He has been On our
committee all through our financial
labors, and [ know that he has both
the brains and the backbone necessary
for SO responsible a position. Some
men have backbone, but no brains. |
and vice versa. He has both, and it is
a rare combination

To Adel

How softly the wind is blowing
Through the leaves of the snow-wreathed bower
And o'er me steals with the shadows
The charm Of the sunset hour.
The breeze from the sunny southland
Hath song like an ocean shell;
The voice of the evening zephyr,
Is speaking of thee, Adele.
1t tells of the long, long years,
With their burdens of grief and care,
When I'll hear no sounds of the music,
Of my girl with the golden hair"
1t whispers of bright days coming,
And gllmmeling DER the sea,
1 see, through the dusky cleaning,
castle for thee and me.
Through the long, sad years of parting,
Fen though trouble our paths beset
Wen look for the bright days coming,
For we will never forget

The SIM and the Rose,

TIE following is copied from manuscript slir
written by the late Alice Carey. 1t has never ap
peared in print of her poems, but it is very
characteristic, and has deep meaning, tende1ly ex
pressed:
The sun, who smiles wherever he goes,
Till the flowers all smile again,
Fell in love one day with bashful Rose
That had been a bud till then.
So he pushed back the folds of the soft green hood
That covered her modest grace,
And kissed her only lover could
Till the crimson burned her face
But woe for the day when his golden hair
Tangled her heart in net
And woe for the night of dark despair
When her cheek with tears was wet
For she loved hlm as only a maiden could
And be left her crushed and weak
Striving in vain with her faded hood
To cover her guilty cheek

How IN Oregon Hunter Net the Lionss

A few days ago Mr.. s. F. Kerns, Of East Port

miles from Portland. In travelling through the
woods, he cast his eye up q ravlne some MY
yards, and discovered what he took for deer, at
which he discharged his gun. But as soon as he
had fred he discovered his mistake, for the anl-
NAL had been hit and it set up most terrific
roar, which fairly mado Mr. Z. g hair stand on

the dog manifested something Of the same
feeling which induced Mr. Kerns to return to

tail toward the lion hunters, and in double quick

The Sea-Swal1ow and the Eishermen.
An interesting association exists between the
sea-swellows and the fishermen Of Lake Palla-
ger, in Lap1and. In the centre Of this lake is
an island, on which the fishermen build their
huts in summer. At early dawn the swallows
gather round these huts, and their cries admon-
ish the occupants that it is time to begin the
days work. The boats are hardly loosaned from
their moorings when the birds start out to find
spot where the fish are abundant. The boatmen
are governed entirely by the movements Of the
swallows. When the birds stop and redoublo
their cries, the fishermen know they have found
q spot where they will be repaid for their labor.
They hasten forward, cast their nets, and soon
have the satisfaction Of finding them well filed.
In accordance with the old maxim, that the labor
or is worthy of his hire, the swallows receive
their share Of the booty. Every fish that the
fisherman throw up in the air is gracefully
caught by the birds and, indeed, they are so
tame that they sometimes come into the boats
and help themselves out Of the nets. If one spot
becomes productive, the birds lead the way
to another. Toward evening men and birds re-
turn to the island, and the birds hasten to clear
the boats OF the share left behind for them by
the fishermen,
