The Chicago Times Of the Gath says
cditorially:
"Thc other day, Tile TINES stated
that, SO far as had yet appeared, there
were not u dozen Greeley republicans
in Chicago; and it called upon The
Chicago Tribune, If there was error in
the statement, to correct the error by
naming a dozen such republicans. The
Tribune has not responded, and thus
The TINES original statement is un-
challenged
We do not give The Times any credit
for yeracity. III is by no means worthy
OF credit for any unsupported state
ment it may make politically, but it il

This is the latest aud freshest Of cam
.paign poetry:
Horace had q little lamb--
.TarilI1--he loved it so
That everywhere that Greeley went,
Tho lamb was sure to go.
II followed him to Cincinnati,
Raised a big row in school,
Aud SO they knocked him on the head
And killed the little fool.
