Radical Opinions of Grant.

'No man can hold office un-
der Grant and maintain his
self-respect," said Forney, a
year ago.
"Grant has no more capabil-
ity than a horse" said Fight
ing Joe Hooker, a month since.
He is not fit to govern this
country" were Stanton's dy-
ing words.
'sThere were sixteen weighty
reasons why Grant should
never be President" wrote
ColfaX in 1865.
He has no more soul than
a dog" said Ben Butler, less
than a year ago.
''He is not controlled by
constitutional law, but by po-
litical rings" says Trumbull.
His San Domingo business
stamps him as a first class
conspirator," says Governor
Palmer.
HE is making money out of
his position, and that's all he
cares about it," said Senator
Carpenter to a Herald CORES
pondent.
He is a man without suffi-
cient knowledge to preside
over a caucus" said Logan, in
1869.

RUSHING INTO. PRINT.-Edi-
tors often come in contact with
men who get furiously angry
at a refusal to print their
grievances, or think him very
''slow" if he does not jump at
the first opportunity to pub
lish some alleged dreadful
fact about a public man which
he, the complainant, has just
found out. Such men should
be thankful that there is such
an institution as the cool, eX-
perienced editor, to stand be-
tween them and the public, or
they would be apt to commit
some unpleasant follies in a
life time. Let a man who is
terribly angry about his din
ner not being ready on time,
sit down and write out just
what he would like to say
about it, and then put it away
for the next days reading
He would be convinced that
the greatest fools on earth are
those who crush into print"

The popular vote for Presi-
dent in 1868 was: Grant, g.
O12, 1873; Seymour, 2,7O3,249.-
The colored vote for Grant in
those of the reconstructed
States that participated in the
election was fully 100000
Therefore, the account may be
stated thus: Whole vote for
Grant, 3,O12,833; less colored
vote, estimated, 100000; white
vote for Grant, 1912, ,S33; whole
vote for Seymour, 2,7O4,2
The advocates of Gen. Grants
reelection are accustomed to
denounce these 100000 as
copperheads, only to be toler-
ated until this generation of
vipers shall die off, and the
Grant idea of "peace" is so to
WELD the colored vote and the
military arm that 100000,
kept together by the cry of
party and the use of spoils,
may permanently exclude q
100000 from any responsible
share in the administration of
the Government.

He had in mind the old saw:

A mild and gentle editor
thus fatteringly speaks of a
brother quill: "In a two-coI
umn editorial, the sneaking
cur who edits that lying, in
cendiary, blackguard, piratical,
loathsome sheet, known Ito
only a few as the KaptaSa
Calister, Lowls over the imag-
mary crimes of the good peo-
pie of Franklin in a manner
like unto the gibbering of an
editor, the incoherentra rawlings of
a madman, or the demoniacal
believing of an imp of Satan,
the phosphorescent CLEAN of
whose bloated carcass furnish
es him with the only light that
mis- rheumy eyes are likely to
have this side of the lurid
flames of his predestined resi-
dence in perdition."

Small dogs had better not
fool" much with elephants.
At Westport, Mass, as the
menagerie was going through
the streets, a fierce canine
made an assault on the ele-
phant. An "eye witness" says
that the dog in about one min
ute was spread over several
yards Of ground to about the
thickness of sheet iron" We
do not believe the eye witness
but have no doubt that the.
dog was hurt.

Greeley as a Typo.

Ed SUN-Slr: From 1881
to 1884, l was carrying on the
business of sterotyping at 216
William street, and most of
the time was employing a
great may compositors, not a
few of whom have since earn
ed a large share of fame in the
world. From the days of Frank
lin even to those of Greeley,
the composing-reom has grad
uated its full quota of the men
who have distinguished them
selves in the history of the
country. Why shouldn't the
institution be incorporated,
have a faculty, and the author
ity to confer degrees? Why
shouldn't it make LIDS as
we'll as old Harvard?
1t was in 1882 or 1888, ]
think, that being at one time
much in need Of more compos-
itors, l asked those in the
office to let the fact be known
at their respective boarding
houses. Among others who
applied for work in response
to this call was a queer look
ing chap, brought in by one of
the hands in the office. He
was of rather more than medi-
um hight; his hair was almost
white, and his face quite so
and entirely bearless, and he
walked with shuff1ing and un-
certain gait. He wore a very
old white hat and fustian pan
falcons, which did not come
down to his boots, and these
completed a personality which
/ had never before met with
in a compositor, and turning
to Seymour, who brought him
in, l inquired if that fellow
was a composition. He replied,
"He's a queer-looking fellow,
but they say he is a good
workman" Being too much in
want of help to be very partic-
ular about the personal ap-
pearance of a compositor, ]
gave him a case and copy, and
you may judge of my surprise
when / tell you that his week
ly bills exceeded by from thir,
ty to fifty per, cent, those of the
other compositors by his side
who were on the same work
And what was equally re.
markable, no matter how rap.
idly he picked up the type
with his fingers, the stream o.
talk that rolled off his tongue
was never interrupted. He
talked incessantly. When he
made out his first bill, | learn
ed that his name was Horace
: Greeley.
In those days he was a com
positor, and he was a gooC
one. He set type rapidly anG
made a clean proof. When ht
/, was a young man he did hi
work well, and now that he il
/, an old one, and there is a big
stake" ahead to give out,
propose that we give it t.
him.

1t would seem as though a
mans beard at least were his
own peculiar property, and
that he had a right to dispose
oft when and where he pleas
ed without bringing upon him
self any great amount of troub-
lie. Nevertheless, a man in
Evansville Ind, lately did
incur deal of trouble by sac
rificing a luxuriant beard which
he had worn for years. He
went hom; after his wife had
retired and she screamed and
went into Mysteries, on which
the mans own brother appered
and fired a pistol at him, and
then Knocked him down.
Next day he could not get a
draft cashed at the bank, and
was even threatened with ar
rest for endorsing it with his
own name. He thinks he will
let his beard grow again.
1t is not possible to ask a
man to return borrowed goods,
books. money, or anything
else, without putting in peril
the beautiful friendship on the
strength of which he fieeced
you. He was a wise man who
said to his friend wishing to
borrow, "You and l are now
good friends. If / lend you
money and you do not pay it,
we shall quarrel. If / refuse
to lend you, l suppose we will
quarrel. There are two chan
ces of a quarrel, and l think l
will keep the money rather
than run the risk of losing it
and YOU"
He had in mind the old saw:

Are our women going to make
themselves look like idiots by ado 1t-
ing the fashion Of wearing their front
hair cut square and reaching down
almost to their eye brows? We met
a woman with her hair
in that style. If
she had not had on hat we should
have likened her to a stuI id squaw,
but as she had on one of the steeple
style hats, running up to a point
her low iorehead and her high crown
reminded us of al overgrown Aztec,
During the summer we have seen
young girls and boys disfigured by
wearing their hair cut straight cross
the forehead, but you have feeling
that such may outgrow their defor-
nifty. but when full grown woman
puts on such Disagreement we can
only exclaim. that a fashionable wo-
man is fearfully made.-Cleveland

person who wishes for employment
as an amanuensis o. copyist can be

EPIzooTIC--The Cincinnati Com
mercial gives the following advice to
owners Of horses afflicted with Epi-
zootics:
T "Owners should know at once that
horses afflicted with the prevailing
malad5 cannot be worked with i'm
punity. Where the violence of the
first attack is wearing off unless the
utmost care is exercised, q relapse is
imminent with pneumonia as cnl-
minaiion, ending fatally almost with
out exception.
"The veterinary surgeons agree
in the orinion that scrupulous clean
ness and a warm stable, with thor
oush upper ventilation, are of prime e
Importance, and hold that horses so
kept are certain to recover and be as
sound, useful and valuable as ever
They also regard the free running at
the nose as a favorable symptom =
Whenever the cough is accompanied
by the fuzzy symptom. the caseis re
garded as necessarily fatal, as the
disease is apt to take the form Of
pneumonia, which seldom fails to
kill"

Two classes OF people have been

man vote; those Confederates who
were sure it would he solidly with
them and those Republicans who
feared it would. A batch OF Ger
man Republican leaders went over
TO the enemy. as a batch OF native
Republican leaders did. but ncithe:
batch hadauy considerable following.
A very large proportion did sc in
November. The remainder are
| Quietly dropping back into their old
I-pIaces. and when the next election
comes round will he found voting
the straight Republicans ticket, from
mere force of habit if for no other
reason. &C. Herald.
