Greeley is Running in Spite OF the
Newspapers.

~ASSASy AS Eli SplIc tile
Newspapers.
From Brooks New York Express Democrat.
A morning journal, anti Greeley, has
quoted and is yet quoting, many, nay,
very many, Democratic journals that
oppose Greeley's nomination at Baltimore
but the compilers thereof do not seem to
comprehend this fact, that Greeley is
running in spite of the newspapers. as
we'll as the politicians. or nearly all,
the old Republican politicians in
Cinclnnau opposed Greeley, and were
for Adams and others but out from the
hopper. enthusiastically, too came Horace
Greeley. Fire fact is. the people have
got it into their heads that Greeley is
their man, their candidate and the
opposition of the newspaper, and of some
public man, too, but stimulates their zeal.
Once in every ten or twenty years the
people break bose OF the Presidency, and
they are running loose now; and we do
not sec how we can make them, either
as Democrats or Republicans, run with
'''the machine" unless "the machine"
runs with them. The more time Dem
ocrats have had to think of Greeley, the
more they arc running for him. as we
see and hear from all the Democratic
conventions, save that in little Delaware.
1t is not only spontaneous outburst, as
in Tennessee and New York, but a con-
clusion-a logical conclusion in In.
diana, Iowa, Kansas, Wisconsin. Missouri;
nay, everywhere, except Delaware.

A Deprayed Press.

Some of The papers Of Baltimore and
Cincinnati are reeking with the foul de-
tails of the Huston case. Whole broad
sides Of those journals arc given up to
matter which, L it appeared IN the col
umns of Che Police Gazette would be
indicted by the Grand Jury. We are
also treated to pond erous editorials on
the same subject. # it we're the chastest
and choicest Of all subjects, the mono
tony would be wearisome. But to
have a load Of carrion dumped under your
nose every morning at your breakfast
table is too much for human patience.
The newspapers referred to are doing
great wrong to their own readers. No
gentleman can permit his family to read
such stuff. There is an implied contract
between proprictors of journals and their
readers that their publications shall be
free from all that is indecent and demora-
lizing They are as much bound to keep
their columns free from unhealthy mat
ter as butchers and bakers are not to
permit poison to be put in the meat and
bread with which they farm ish their
customers. Public indignation ought
to be manifested in such way as to pu,

CIRCUMSTANCES ALTER CAsEs.-I


CIRCUMSTANCES ALTER CAsEs.-It is
wonderful how circumstances alter eases
It's but very short time since Charles
Summer was recognized by all the Rad
icals in the land as the greatest living
American statesman, and the colored pop.
ulation, especially. looked upon him as
the greatest benetae!or of their race But
now, since he has made the most terrible
onslaught upon Grant ever witnessed ir
the United States Senate and sbowa CON
clusively, that the great gift taker de-
serves to be impeached and hurled in lis
grace from the Presidential chair, these
Radicals have suddenly discovered that
Sumner is not much of a Statesman after
all. They never had a very exalted opin-
ion of him, anyway, and always thought
he would bear watching.
The same remark applies in the case OF
Horace Greeley, who was, they declared =,
the best man living until be became d is
gusted With Grant and his ring, and then
be was suddenly discovered to be an or
rant humbug, and man Of DO influence
or stability. And yet these two men are
responsible for the existence Of the Rad
ical party to-day. and have supplied very
nearly all the brains and responsibility it
ever had.

we shall have a far better wheat crop
than we had last year, both in quantity
and quality. There will be less straw
but more grain. The grass will be bet
ter than was expected. Corn looks we'll
and is growing rapidly. Oats will be &

and the crop will be a full and fair one
