Grants Administration.

Gen. Grant is but man. He de-
serves well of his countrymen be-
cause the world Acknowledges him
as the one who saved his country
from disunion, and proved thereby
the fact that man is capable of self
government.
Gen. Grant accepted, with his of
flee, the wreck of the old ship with
it's shrouds rent, masts r.ven and al
most watter-logged, as it was save |
from the storm of Rebellion.
Disorder still rcigned amongst the
demoralized crew. The work Of re
pairing and restoring to its normal
condition was the labor of patience,
toll, anxiety and time. In due time
with shroads. masts, spar, and with
every brace and beam in place she
was again launched, with the Stars
and Stripes covering her b o I'd and
extended deck, on her new voyage OF
Liberty. Gen. Grant, the firm un-
daunted little hero stands at the
wheel and guides her over the waves.
The voice of mutiny no longer is
heard. Blood flows no more on her
deck. Her stevedores are now the
equals of all. Her flag is that of
freedom and the admiration of
the Ord. The fiower-decked graves
of her fallen heroes, sleeping on her
thousand fields, show the priceless
value at which she is now held.
The bonds executed in her defense
bear the seal of security. She dis
penses to her children a currency
never surpassed in the world-good,
alike on ocean or land. Her credit
stands a'one upon her name "United
States n' She needs to ask no other
endorser. She suffers not from
the sound of clanking chains of ur-
requited toll. She extends her arms
over the weak and strong alike.
She to-day demands justice at the
hands Of her mother whose insolence
added much to her sorrow in the
hour of her af1i;ction. She spans the
broad bosom of America with her
iron ways, and astonishes the old
world by her giant progress. She
has turned the sword into Flow
shares, and is fast extending the
field of civilization toward the set
ting sun; all is peace, comfort, con-
tentment and prosperity, yet the
tongue of slander rests not. Gen.
Grant is a ''Drunkard," a Butcher"
a "Gift- taker," "Nepotist," q
LIAR" Cheat" a "Swindler'
"He saved others"-he saved the
nation and all his slanderers from
disgrace, but he can not, after doing
all that, save himself from the SLAM
ders of his vilest enemies. The
sponge and vinegar must constantly
be pressed to his lips, even the nails
be driven to his heart, and he be held
up to r:d;cule and scorn by all the
traitors who submitted to his sword,
and those who, at Baltimore, trem-
bled at his name, and there kissed
the rod that smote them. Cowards
2, l tical cowards!! Tremble yet
you are guilty!

The charges against Senator Will
son on the score of an alleged con-
nection with the know-Nothing par
ty have been thoroughly ventilated
and exposed, the Chicago Journal
now comes to the front with an ar
raingmeut OF Horace Greeley. We
quote this from that paper of Satur-
day:
A New Yorker, now n well known
resident and merchant Of this city,
informs us that in 1856 he was a
member Of the first Know Nothing
Council formed in the city of New
York; that the question of securing
newspaper organ came up; that
4 committee was appointed on this
subject; and that, at a meeting of
that committee, at 6S East Broad
way, over drug store, Horace
Greeley was personally present and
submitted proposition to make his
Tribune the organ of TIE Know
Nothing party of New York. if they
would pay him $4,000. Our in
formant, who is as reliable man as
can be found in Chicago's business
circles, stands ready to prove his
statement, should old Horace have
the hardihood to question it.

General Garfield, on being renom-
mated for Congress on the 31st inst,
made speech from which We take
the following extract:
Horace Greeley at the head of the
Tribune, as the popular advocate OF
equal rights is one thing; Horace
Greeley at the head of the Democrat
ic party to conduct the affairs of the
nation is quite another. In that po
sition we should set the heal and
face of an old friend resting on the
the shoulders and body and guided
by the heart, life and activity of an
old, relentless enemy. 1t is idle to
suppose that any man can conduct
an administrator with any success
unless he does it in general and subj
stantial concurrence with the opin-
ions and aspirations Of those who
elected him. If Mr.. Greeley contin-
ues to be in any considerable degree
the man he has been hitherto, in
case of his election, the gap between
himself and the great body of his
supporters would yawn wider than
Erubus, and In it would be swal
lowed all peace and harmony of adj
ministration. On the first day of
his term he would be comforted by a
hungry throng of of1ice-seekers who
demand the place of every man now
in office who did not support him as
a candidate. If he declares that po-
litical difference of opinion shall be
no cause for removal, he begins a
battle with overwhelming odds
against him. If he yields, no result
is possible but complete submission
to the Democracy. 1t has been
urged with some truth that Grant has
made bad appointments. | ask If
there is anything in Mr.. Greely's
knowledge, or in the kind Of men
with whom he has long associated
in the politics of New York, that
promises better results? Let his
present Tammany supporters an
