The Register says: The clerks of
the District Fair were Des MONIES
lads, and when they were receiving
entries one of them electrified
lady who was presenting an infants
garment for exhibition, by calling
out in stentorian tones to the check
ing clerk: "No. 449-one baby's
square," The lady ducked her

A boy named Matt. Donohue, of
Keokuk while handling a revolver,
carelessly discharged it, the ball

when he expired half an hour after

Sumner versus Sumner.

In the face of persistent ridicule and against
extravaganza and inscriptions opposition, the
nomination at Cincinnati was triumphantly
adopted at Baltimore Such an unprecedented
victory, without concert or propulsion of any
kind, can be explained only by supposing that
it is in harmony with the popular longing.
That the Democrats, and especially those of
the South, should adopt a lifelong abolitionist
for President, is an assurance of willingness to
respect the rights of their colored fellowcitizens
with the recognition of which Horace Gree
ley was an early epresentative.-Mr. Summers
Letter.
But there is one practical remark I would
call the attention of the Senate to-the char
acter of this proposition IA resolution for the
relief of Mrs. r. e. Leg in another aspect.
We all know the political associations of the
honorable Senator tMr. McCreery) who has in
troduced it. May we not regard this resolution
as showing the sentiments of his associates?
establish should they obtain power in the govern
ment of the country, as threatened by the Sen
ator from Delaware, as threatened by other
Senators and by other associates of these Sem
ators? Do we not see here the policy that
would be established policy which is to
take the old rebellion by the hand; which is to
install it in the high places of power, in the
Now, sir, could make my voice heard from
one end of the country to the other, from Mass
achusetts to Louisiana, it would be to warn
against that political combination which shows
its hands now in the proposition of the Senator
from Kentucky. Take warning, would say to
my countrymen everywhere; not emily at the
South, but at the North; but especially at the
South, that the political party with which the
Senator is associated should it obtain power
in this nation, will establish the policy of which
his resolution 10 the represenaativc.-Mr. Sum
aaer an the Senate, Dec. 49, 1870.

High Stepping Journalism.

The Sunday Star of yesterday fairly out
did itself in grandiose statement of lofty prin-
ciple and we don't know how to put the case
stronger. That journal, copying from its pre-
sent source Of political light the N. Y. Tribune

Tammany for Greeley.

Anybody who walks thorugh our streets, or
takes the trouble to make few Inquiries
among Democrats may see or md out that
Horace Greeley is supported by the entire gang
of Tammany Democrats.
From Tammany Hall his flag is flying. The
Tammany which supports Greeley is the same
as that which robbed the people. Respectable
Democrats are everywhere holding aloof from
him. ..
But the Tammany which sis for Greeley to-
day is identically the same body which so abom-
nably plundered New York, and which was
defended and advocated by the very newspa-
pers now engaged in defending and advocating
Greeley.
When the announcement of his nomination
at Baltimore reached New York, Tammany ord
cred salute of 100 guns to be fred in his hon.
or. The Tribune itself, on the following day.
made the following boasts in its most pronli-
nent columns.
'Tn the City Hall Park was displayed large
banner bearing the inscription: 'Tammany
responds to the nomination of the National
Convention at Baltimore" Directly in front
of this banner was four-pounder, from which
100 salutes were fired in quick succession. Soon
after this small gun began to make itself heard
two ten-pounders were put in position little to
berating roars," &C., &c. Upon the receipt
of despatch from Baltimore, announcing the
nomination of the Cincinnati candidates, a
large flag was raised over Tammany Hail."
Tweed IS working actlVoly IOr Greeley. so
is Sweeney So is A. Oakley Hall. So is Math-
ew T. Brennan, who continues to cheat the
city yearly out of thousands of dollars There
| is not a rascal connected with the ring which
so wickedly plundered New York who is not
virtually concerned in Greeley's success. This
is a matter of fact, which no responsible Dem
ocrat denies.
All these knaves are well aware that the
| election for Governor, and that for Mayor and
other local officers, takes place on the same day
| as the Presidential election.
Greeley's Republican" friends must vote the
entire Democratic ticket, and in return the
| Tammany gang will vote for Greeley.
Thus Tammany Mayor will be secured, and
| Controller Green will instantly be turned out
The Herald is already suggesting Mr.. John
Kane as a candidate for Mayor. Mr. Kane is
merely another edition of Mayor Hall. He is
| Halls nominee. He worked hard to prevent
Halls expulsion from the Union Club, and
| Hall would be scarcely less powerful than he is
now if Kane were elected. The city of New
| York wonld once more be handed over to a rule
of thieves, and the Tammany system of gov
eminent would be carried to Washington.-N.
