COLONEL GREEN
Colonel Charles q. Green, or the City or Boston,

and urbanity prevailed at last and the paper has
for nearly two months given Mr.. Greeley warm and
friendly support.
William Hyde, editor OF the Missouri Republican,
which was the first daily democratic paper in the
United States to hoist to the top OF its columns the
telegraphcd to this effect from Clnclnnati-is q
large, dark-skinned, quiet man, who has been for

Ayde's wedding. ABOUT live years ago. The Mis-

never been questioned by any and his character is
equally irreprOachable. He Is strong, incisive
lawyer, a far student and holds position in the
democratic party OF the Northwest hardly enjoyed
by any other man in 1t.
RRADLEY r. JOHNSON
