for opin; ons at the Democratic and Liberal
Republican headquarters. At the latter they
show stacks of letters from every Northern
State, any one letter of which when opened
reveals the names of Republicans by tens,
scores and hundreds, who have abandoned
Grant for Greeley. The detection In the Re-
publican ranks has gone 30 far that the Libe'
raj committee actually entertain hopes OF car
rylng Vermont and Iowa-heretofore the Two
strongest Radical States excepting South
Carolina) In the Union. a Tribune estimate
gives Iowa to Greeley by seven thousand ma
iority. This Is charged to the German defec-
tIon. The Germans hold the balance of power
in Iowa, and have gone over en- masse to
Greeley. In Vermont the Liberal movement
is spreading like prairie fire. In some towns
there is hardly d Grant man LETT besides the
postmaster. If such things be In Iowa and
Vermont, what may we not expect OF less
Radicalized States?
