HORACE GREELEY is much talked
Of individual nowadays. Ultra -radi-
Gals abuse him, GRANTEES who believe
that discretion is the better part of
valor either coax him or preserve a dis
Greet silence, while liberal republicans
aud passive democrats are engaged in
the attempt to cajole aud fatter him
into the liberal republican movement.
But we are inclined to believe notwith-
standing all the Tribune philosopher
has said in regard to the abuses which
have fourished under Grants admins
tration, that when the time comes he
will fall gracefully into line and
raise his colors for the nominee OF the
Philadelphia convention. In a late
number Of the Tribune, he congratu-
lates the republicans of the state Of
New York on the generally republican
victories gained in the various mum.
cipal elections recently held in the
state. Every such victory is justly
regarded as a favorable evidence of
Grants strength among the people and
when Greeley speaks Of them as evinc-
ing "a healthy aud vigorous turn of
public sentiment" it is only another
way of expressing the conviction that
the signs arc all encouraging for the
reelection Of Grant. Administration
papers are already chuckling over
Greeley's backward glanccs to the fold
of radicalism, and are ready to wei
come him back without a rebuke foI
his short-lived desertion,

BISMARCK'S CARRIAGE.
From the Boston Post.l


Princk Bismarck has sup
plemrnted his unique triunphs with the
acquisition of new carriage, of which he
is as proud us any youngster is of his
new go-cart. And not without reason,
indeed for Ly the accounts of This vehicle,
it would appear to be something actually
wondrous and Unprecedented. OF course
its workmanship is of the very best, and Of
course it is ornamental and useful. Ma

RANSOM vs.. ABBOTT
Abbott, the calpet-bagger, is playing
the dog aud tnanger roll as regards the
North Carolina senatorship, and in case he
cannot be permitted to take the seat he
desires, that both himself and Gen. Ran
som be rejected, in which event Governor
Caldwell will fill the vacancy by appoint
ment.
NEW HAMPSHIRE ELECTION.
The politicians are on the qui rire as to
the result Of to-days election in New
Hampshire. The administration is on the
anxious bench, as defeat there would be
virtually censure against Grants admin
istration. Every clerk and laborcr who
could be spared by any means from his du-
ties in the department here, has had ten
days leave of abs.n given him, and has
been packed off to the "old granite state
to help save Grant fr.m defeat, for thi.
election is of the utmost importance to him
for party purpo'cs, while to the Democ.
racy it matters really but very little, as il
VIII have no bearing on the contest iu
next November.

Gen. Butler yet lives and gave evidence
of it yesterday by introducing bill in tn
house providing that after April LIST mex
one-third of the custom duties be paid il

ceived majority but not two-third'

So it did no, pass. Benny will no doub

The BREACH in the radical party is
widening, every new demonstration for
Grant tending to increase it. The lat
est news from Washington is to the
effect that the discoutented republican

Sehurz and Upton, have agreed that
they cannot abide oy the decision of
the Philadelphia convention if it nom.
mates Grant, aud have decided to send
a senator to Cincinnati to confer witt

movement. This step has no doub

That WHITE HAr.-The storm Of
Wednesday night played havoc
generally, but it took especial pains
to exhibit the wrath Of the god of
the winds on that monster Greeley
hat that was erected outside Of the
headquarters on Carondelet street.
It tore it all to "smithereens" and
all day yesterday. while the news
kept coming in from all quarters, Of
Grants increasing majority, the
tatters Of that old white hat kept
attracting attention, as if significant
of the fate Of the wearer Of the Or
iginal.
Nor did the Democratic insignia,
a little higher up the street, fare
any better. "All that was left Of
them was the rent American flag,

DESTRUCTIVE F1RE.-On Thursday
morning last a fire broke out in the
Third District, on the corner Of Ely
sian Fields and Moreau streets, and
quickly consuming the building in
which it caught, spread rapidly to
adjoining houses, and burnt eight
valuable properties involving a loss
of about $4,000. Insurance in va
rious offices will save q considerable
portion to the losers. But by far
the most melancholy incident was
the burning to death OF an unfor-
tunate man who was in an upper
story of one Of the houses and fell to
the basement in the flames where
his burnt remains were found.

Of saying with any certainty who

selves into amost uncomfortable Elk. >
Their paper "WooDHuI1 AND CLAr-
Inns" Weekly made its temperance
last week, and contained a string Of
violent accusations of a grossly i'm
moral character against Rev. Henry
Ward Beecher. That is, immoral
according to the old notion, which
these free-love advocates however
denounce. They don't condemn
either MI. Beecher or his alleged
victims, because to W. & G. the freezer
the love the better, but they howl
against the hypocricy of the thing.
Now, to insure the safe conduct OF
this issue OF their paper over the coun-
try it was mailed everywhere, two
days before it was circulated il New
York, where it was published. Or

and Indignation seized the people.
Nor was the accused divine the

tude. Suits for SANDER were i'm
mediately entered and tho parties
arrested and held to bail in large
sums of money. Printers, publish
ers and all concerned are involved
in the penalties of the "unterrifed"
pair. Messrs. Beecher, T. Tilton
and Challis are pushing their suits
with a vigor and nervousness not
perhaps unnecessary or ~undeserved,
but certainly extraordinary in such
cases. Popular sentiment seems to
be strongly against the lady brokers
to such an extent even that they
have failed to secure the services of
respectable counsel.
There is no doubt that every ef-
fort will be made to terrify and
overcome them and their printers
and their publishers, inasmuch as

returns this year proceed doubtless
on the same basis, but with charac.

Democrats by 1864 majority.
St. Martin. by her last record,
gave Graham a small majority over
Jumel. To yield this parish to the
Liberals by 200 we consider safe.
ST. Tammany gave a small ma
jority in 1870 to Graham. No reli-
able returns como in yet. The
voting population is a little over
1000, and the Republicans are fairly
in a small majority.
Tangipahoa, like her mean self

State officers had counted all the
Liberal votes and finding an unques-

conduct will be remains to be seen.
There are some sorts of outrage
that may be perpetrated with impu-

may not.
