Her large Drained, big souled managers

should feel deeply grateful for the manner
in which the council taxes them for the pur-
pose of keeping away custom. A town
built on spite is bound to fail, and that is
why Duluth can not rise above 1000 lnhab-

life: "Thereiore, arising betimes,
I hired a very fine horse, and man
ming him bravely, laid his head

The Defeat Of Greeley.

The defeat of Greeley and Brown has
surprised no one. In these days OF
Radical corruption. when the admins
tration wiel,ls unlimited patronage, it
is next to impossible to prevent the re
election of a candidate for the second
term. Radical blyOnets and Radical
money have accomplished the result,
ia, any one might have toreSeen. No
matter who might have been the can
di.late, the result wonll have been the
SAME. M device the opposition could
have rpSortpd to, wonld have material
ly changed the result. Even the ac-
knowleiycd ability aud known fidelity
to Northern interests of both the Libe
raj candidates made no difference
Whatever. The North has given Il lar
ger ma ,rity against Greeley, the. Re-
publican, than it gave against Sry-
nIour, the Democrat. 1t has struck
down it's longest and ahfest friend
And in this work the Northern people
have been aided by the solid yme of
the en.ancipated negroes, for whose
freedom Mr.. Greeley has spent life of
hard aud unremitting labor. Verify
politics Sometimes plays fantastic
tricks.
Aud now that General Grant is cleo
ted We hope that he will redeem the
crimes, and the mistakes which have
been said to be worse than crimes, OF
the past four years. He has spent four
years in trying to secure his re.elec-
ton; now let him spend the next four
years in doing something tor the good
of the country. Let him dismiss the
weak and corrupt couusellors by whom
he has been misleh, aud surround him :
self with the wisdom and patriotism of
the Republican party. Let him at once
put an end tn the disyraretul policy
which has marked his treatment of The
Southern States. Many of the South
eru States, wlicl. elected Democratic
State officers, gave him their electoral
vote. In all he ran far ahead of the
Republican ticket. The South has pre-
srutcl to him the Olive branch let
him accept it in good faith and bring
about his protessrd desire of peace be-
tween the two sections.
