o THEY LIE.

Any cause must be in a deplorabIe
condition indeed, when it requires
persistent and continual lying to save
1t from death. The latest Radical lie
sent out to the country from WaShin.-
ton. is 10 the effect that sumner had
avowed his determination to support
Grant. should he receive the Republi
can nomination at Philadelphia. A
correspondent Of the Chicago Times,
writes from Washington, under date
of April 9th, that this statement was
shown to Sumner. who instantly pro-
nounced it a falsehoOd, and said that
under no circumstances would he sup
to the sinking hopes of the Custom
house plunderers, like many others
which have preceded it, has vanished
thin air. and Sumner will go with
Trumbuil, Greeley and Schurz for the
nominee of the Cincinnati Convention,
and should Davis or Adams be nomi-
mated. will throw the whole weight OF
his powerful influence with the black
race against Grant. 1t will be a cruel
blow to Grant and the Radical faction
of the Republican party TO have the
black race, for whom they have done
so much, turf against them, but such
is the philosophy of politics.

WHIsPERINGs OE BAD FAIIE.
April 30 1S12

For the present powerful revolt
within the lines Of the Republican
party against the administration OF
Grant the country is largely Indebted
leading Democrats in all parts OF the
who encouraged Liberal Re
publicanS in the revolt, by assurances
that the Democratic party would not
make nominations in opposition to a
conservative Republican candidate
nominated by them Now that the
fruits of this compact have ripened
into a great and glorious movement
which threatens to divide the Repub-
lican party into two equal and hostile
camps, some indi>creet Democrats
are counseling that their party break
faith with the Liberal Republicans and
put a candidate of their own in the
field. Even if assured that we could
elect a straight-out Democratic candl
date, we would sternly oppose such
course III view Oh LHe pietStS WHICH
have been made to the leaders of the
Cincinnati movement. Without the
assurances which they We're given OF
Democratic sympathy and material
aid the bolt could never have been
fostered into respectable proportions,
and it would now be the grossest 70
litical perfidy on our part to allow this
gallant Latla of revolutionists and
rebels. to be mercilessly slaughtered
in the open field, " driven to take
shelter again under the wing of the
administration to saw them from fall
ing between a o fire. As for us.
we shall never co~untenance any bad
faith or pertidy in the action of the
Democratic party. Victory is now
within our reach, and we shall steadily
demand that the Democratic party
press forward in the new movement
until it Is secured.

A Rhode Island exchange explains
the defeat of the radical candidate for
Lieutenant Governor in that State as
follows:
A special issue was made against
the Republican candidate for Ieuten
ant Governor, the present incumbent.
Pardon w. Stevens, because of his
alleged connection with trap fishing,
and he is probably defeated ny Cbas.
r. Cutler, Democratic candidate.
That is one Of the main charges
made against General Grant. He has
trap tished for houses and lands, car
riages and Senaca stone stock, ETC.,
and has caught enough to set the
Grants up in business for several gen
erations. The result in Rhode Island
is significant that the people mean
death to trap fishing.

BREAKING N

The extraordinary break which is
now taking place in the Republican
ranks has no parallel in the history of
political partiesin ourcountry in times
of peace. When, for the purpose of
''firing the Southern heart" the hot
bloods of South Carolina opened fire
upon the symbol of American nation
atty, a similar dislntegratiOn and
breaking down of party lines was
witnessed throughout the North, but
not before nor since. From every
part OF the country, North, East, South
and West, comes the an cheerful
news that the iron hold of the military
dictator at Washington is being loos-
ened, and the party shackles which
bound the Republican masses to him
are fast giving way; and should the
Cincinnati Convention meet the just
expectations of the country, by maxi
ing satisfactory nominations. the here
tofore solid and invincible ranks of
the party in power will dissolve and
melt away like snow fakes i'm a June
sun. From present appearances the
Ohce-holders' Convention at Phila-
delphia. will be one of the most sicklv
and dispirited bodies of men that has
met for many a day in national con-
vention. AS in duty bound, these
craven creatures will sound their
masters praises with stent"rious voice.
but it will be impossible for them 70
hide the death rattle which mocks
their assumed confidence, and trust
in their master.

WAsHINGToN, April IS. - United

yesterday directed j. l.. High, his
Deputy, to apply to Justice Hawley
forthwith for an order for the discharge
OF all the defendants held by the
United States Marshal under void in

having decided that the Grand Jury
was illegally drawn by an officer hav-
ing no legal authority that all their
arrests were Illegal, and that they are
now held in violation of law, and their
further detention would subject the
Marshal TO a charge of trespass.

NOT RELIABLE.

The Enterprise of yesterday says
the REGISTER is not reliable ia its
reference to the Office holders meet
ing at Cooper Institute; that the Con-
night, and that the item in the REGIS
TER appeared on Thursday morning,
and hence concludes that We had no
advices at the time on the subject. In
our article we did not read the proof
and failed TO correct the typographical
error as to the date of the meeting;
but, in all essential facts, our advices
We're correct. We took the ]precaution
TO secure the earliest news by private
telegram, knowing that the same in
t%luences which are brought to bear to
secure Grants nomination would
manipulate the general Geographic
report of the meeting. The following
telegram which appeared in the Sac
ramento Record and San Francisco
Chronicle. corroborates the statement
OF u dispatch:
"NEw YORK. April 18th evening"
The Administration meeting at Cooper
Institute to night was very largely at
tended. At the outset there was con
siderable disturbance in the audience,
rival cheers being given for Grant and
Greeley, which resulted in the eject
ment of numerous Individuals"
The Enterprise failed to see this
little item. Not quite SO fast, Mr..
Enterprise, next time. We have
facilities for getting the telesraptic
news of importance up to within a
few moments of going to press. We
will have IL special reporter at the
three great National Conventions, yet
to be held, and give u readers the
news one day in advance of the Enter
prise, as we did this time. And, we
will give it correctly, o That is the
beauty of newspaper enterprise.

to his Erie transactions we printed on Mon
day, has honOred us with this communi-
cation:
New YORK, February 26. 1872.
James Gordon Bennett, ESQ.,.
DEAR SIR-lnclosed please find bill for
the article published in the Herald of this
day. headed 1.-THE Erie Ring"

bill be settled by the evening of Wednes-

Received payment.
New York, February 26, 1872.
We are afraid that Mr.. Wilcox is too
modest in his demands. Our experience
with Boheinians led us to expect that he
would have made a charge of one hundred
and twenty thousand dollars, instead of the
beggarly sum here demanded. Since he is
about to enter legal proceedings he might
rs we'll 20 into court with claim worth
collecting, for if he has any relations
with the Eric lawyers they will
make away with his twelve thousand dol
lars long before the case goes to a jury. Nor
should we think of interfering with his suit
and his desire to have an audience of the
courts by rhrusting the amount OF this little
bill upon him. His suit will involve most
interesting proceeding, and the evidence of
Mr.. Lane and AR. Gould, and the Erie mag
mates, who will, no doubt be summoned to
testify in the behalf of this anxious and
modest Bohemian, will throw great deal
of light upon the inside history OF the Erie
management.
The sooner Wilcox takes illegal means" to
obtain the amount Of his bill the better. At
the same time he may heed suggestion on
our own part. His experience with Gould
and Lane has shown him their facility in
paying out money that belongs. to Other
people, and may succeed in inducing them |
to give him another check upon the Tenth |
National Bank. AS We have no access to |
the Erie treasury, and our money is hon |
estly earned We prefer to hold it until Mr. |
Wilcox comes to collect his bill, accompa-
MED by deputy sheriff, armed with an
order of the court
