The Customhouse organ which was the
first paper to charge one portion of the
tax-resisters with playing off upon the other
and poorer portion, now backs down and
attempts to shuttle the story off on us.
While we are satisfied of its truth, we did
not start the statement.

The Customhouse organ declares that
the country fell into drunken fit thirty
years ago, and elected an old fool by the
name of Harrison to the Presidency. This
is hard on its double-barreled friend on
Charities street. If anybody in the coun-
try ever elected an old fool to the Presi-
dency, which we deny, we can be con-
WINGED very easily that it was the Bee that
performed that feat.

If the Guard is not satisfied that all the
principles that the Democratic party now
contends for are to be found in the plat
form adopted at Cincinnati, we are, and
what we are still better satisfied with is the
further fact that the Democracy is satisfied
of the same thing. Its prejudices are left
out, however, and these were what created
the difference between them and the Re
pubhcans. The men who divided thirty
years ago can now stand together again.

The Chicago Times, the leading Demo-
cratic organ of the great Northwest, pre-
dicted some three months since that ma
jority of the Democratic vote of the coun-
try would be cast for Republican at the
approaching election. In view of the
nomination of Greeley and Brown at Gin
cinnati, this prediction has been rendered
certain Of fulfllment. United to the
Southern vote and the vast numbers of the
East and North in perfect accord and
sympathy with the policy defined in that
prediction, the election of the Liberal Re
publican candidates is now a foregone con-
clusion.

A distinguished Partisan scientist has
recently discovered that in hot climates
where yellow fever and similar epidemic
diseases prevail in their most malignant
form the inhabitants are addicted to the
use Of hydrurettic carbonic acid gas, or
soda water. Indeed, his observations in
duce the belief that in case Of yellow fever
a patient addicted to the use of soda water
rarely if ever RECEIVERS. This may account
for the fatal character of the disease in
this city in previous years.

The Citizens Guard complains that
"Warmoth's organ" is engaged in sneering
at honest men! 1t does not, however, ac-
cuse us Of having sneered at the Citizens
Guard. This may be accounted for by
reason of the fact that the Citizens Guard
is neither colored nor honest, the only
classes, it says, the REPUBLICAN sneers at.
The truth about the matter is, we have
great respect for the colored people, but
very little for the Citizens Guard.

of transportation to employ q detail of
penitentiary convicts to act as proxies and

force Of deputy marshals and revenue in

run their campaign fund rather low, this
economical suggestion will doubtless re-
ceive serious consideration from the ring
masters. And the members might gather
some hints from their short-haired allies
that would prove of great future useful

No better proof could be wanted that
Horace Greeley, as the New York Post
charges, was identified with the Tammany
thieves, than the fact that his nomination
was secured by the politicians who control
Tammany, aud the still more significant
fact that Tweed's, followers are rushing to
the support of the philosopher, who, in the
guise Of an enemy, was always a friend
they could count CtsStombOuse Repltb-
Hcdn.
The above is scarcely worthy Of notice,
save as showing how unjust a man can be
for the sake Of blackening, if he can, the
honor of a political opponent. Horace
Greeley may have been eccentric, may
have erred in thought, and word
and deed, but those who know him,
or his history land who does not?), even
those of the political party he has most
bitterly opposed, know he has been hon
est, and would never have been party to
the frauds of Tammany and Tweed, or any
transaction of that iIk

The Customhouse organ Of Tuesday Il

Inc Customhouse organ OF Tuesday las
says:
For years the American plow-bOys have
laughed at Dr." Greeley's pretensiOns tt
| agriculture. and the American schOOlbOyl
have laughed at his political economy.
The palpable mistake in this statement
is, political editors, especially those of the
Democratic persuasion, are mistaken fol
American plow-boys;" for it has been
these editors, not the plow-boys, who have
laughed at Greeley's pretensions to agri.
culture The latter, particularly the candid
and best informed of them, admit the
service Greeley has done for the farming
interest, and prize his book as containing
much of great worth.
Schoolboys may have laughed at his
political economy, but if his notions as to
protection are referred to, it may be some
consolation to his supporters to remember
that such grOlor-up boys as Henry Clay
and Daniel Webster did not laugh at him.
1t is reported from Washington that
President Grant has become very much
Disguised, and that he freely speaks Of his
intention to decline a second nomination.
This desire on his part is induced by the
constant pressure that is brought to bear
upon him to alter his policy in certain
particulars. His frmest and most power
full supporters are dissatisfied with the
aspect of affairs, and their suggestions
naturally influence the President to sup
pose that if he gives way to the advice of
his friends he will be accounted weak and
inconsistent, and if he does not they win
be discouraged The politicians who sup
port the President feel that they are in
peril of a complete breakdown, for the
party which has upheld them so long can
not be weakened as it has been and sue
coed against the combination that is almost
certain to vote for Greeley and Brown
The President sees and feels the peril as
keenly as his friends do, and when to this
weakness is added the still further fact
well known to himself, that some of his
present advisers and supporters are unre-
liable, it may well be accepted as a GER
tainty that he is maturely considering
about the propriety of Withdrawing from
the next contest. One of the current re-
ports is that Speaker Blaine, most popu-
lar and deserving Republican, will be
presented to the Philadelphia convention
with very powerful backing Truly we
are in the midst Of revolution that bids
fair to bring about strange complications.
