CARRYING A JOKE TOO FAR.

The Cincinnati Commercial has been
teasing Horace Greeley for more than
year, on the subject of the Presidency.
Halstead never once dreamed that Greeley
thought of running, but selected him as
subject for fun. He was the standing butt
of the Commercial for months. In No
vember, 1870, it held out the idea that if
he would give up his protection ideas, he
would be an available candidate for the
White House. The following pungent
paragraph appeared in the Tribune of No
vember the 3Oth, 1870:
The Cincinnati Commercial will be good
enough to inform its readers that there Is no
Office in the universe that would be any induce
ment to Horace Greeley to foTegO or postpone
his advocacy OF protection to home industry.
After that, 1t Is welcome to go on with its fool
ing.
The Commercial enjoyed the fun amaz-
ingly and did go Oh with its fooling,"
never dreaming that the joke would
amount to anything serious.
On the 18th day of August, 1871 ten
months ago, the Commercial spurred Mr..
Greeley again i'll the following language {:
Horace Greeley once had the reputation of
encouraging, if not endorsing, Fourieism, Free
Love and the abolition Of sex IN politics. His
recent letter to Mr. Theodore Tilton discharges
him fairly from the imputation of such vaga-
ries. 1t really looks as though he were break
ing ground for the Presidency in 1872 and were
anxious to free himself from all entangling alli-
ances that might damage his prospects for a
nomination"
H. G., still unable to see the joke blurt-
ed out something about " foolishness and
Ignorance" in journalism, and replied
to the paragraphin the following vigorous
style:
Horace Greeley has been asserting and en-

WE advise the Democratic Executive
Committee to summon court martial
instanter, and have the Nashville Banner
tried for treason to the party. In its issue
of Tuesday it alludes TO that high Author
ity Cthe Committed in the following flip
pant, not to say disrespectful language:
Let the Eleven act. Full power to do so was
given them by a Convention which elected It
self and then elected a President, who in turn
elected the Eleven, whose duty it now is to elect
at large a very large Congressman for a very
large State. Think of what plight we 'rouLd
be in, if we did not have Committee!
If we did not personally know all the
editors of the Banner to be strictly tenn
perate, we should be forced to the belief
that some one of them had got on a
spree " before writing the above rash
paragraph.
Knoxville daily chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1882, 1872-06-13

forcing the views expressed in his late letter to
Theo. Tilton all his life-notably in discussion
with Henry james morethan twenty years ago;
also in a controversy with Robert Dale Owens
eleven or twelve years ago Nothing will ever
discharge" him from the "imputation OF
anything which knaves and liars may deem cal
culated to do him harm; but the truth is so
we'll established and trebIy fortified that those
who defy it are utterly without excuse.
This opened the eyes of the Cincinnati
man, but neither the POINTED language
about "knaves and liars " nor anything
else taught the Commercial that it was
q" fooIing " with the wrong man, and it
kept on with its fooling." 1t now sees
the result, and for the first time preceives
that there is such a thing as carrying a
joke too far.

WHO IS GEN. McCLERNAND ?

The files of the New York Tribute for
the past ten years furnish some very inter-
esting reading. Information may be OBJ
tanned from that source that would startle
large number of Mr.. Greeley's supporters
and make them feel strangely uncomfort-
able, unless they have madeup their minds
to close their eyes and ears, and go it blind
for the white-hatted philosopher. If Demo-
Gratis ever reflect (which is very serious
question: they will find ample food in these
files for the neXtsiX months. For instance,
Gen. McClernand, of Illinois, is one of the
warmest supporters Of the Cincinnati
movement. We have heard men ask,
"WhO is this Gen. McClernand ?n The
Tribune, in its issue of August 31st, 1870,
tells who he is as follows:
Seriously, we had almost forgotten McCler-
nand. What genius some men have for OBJ
truding themselves upon public attention in
periods of general excitement, and how they do
amuse gods and meni Gen. McClernand
plumes himself, in this appeal" upon his
military service of his beloved country" His
one great strategic movement, which did his
country more good than any other, was that by
which, at a critical period in the war, he moved
successfully from the field on Springfield, Hi
nois
1t must be refreshing to Gen. McCler-
nand and his friends to thus have his char
acter so graphically described, from so
prominent source.

THE PRESIDENTS ACCEPTANCE OF THE
PHILADELPHIA NOMINATION

On Monday the President and Vice
Presidents of the Philadelphia Convention
addressed President Grant the following
note, informing him of his nomination by
that body:
WAsHINGToN, D. c., June TO- 1872.
To the President
SIR: In pursuance of our instructions, we,
the UNDERSIGNED President and Vice Presidents
Of the National Republican Convention held in
Philadelphia on the 9TH and 9Th instants, have
the. honor to inform you Of your nomination for
reelection to the Office OF President Of the
United States.
As it is impossibIet to give an adequate idea of
the enthusiasm which prevailed, or the unanl-
nifty which hailed you as the choice Of the peo-
pie, we can only add that you received the en-
tire vote Of every State and Territory.
Regarding your reelection as necessary tOthe
peace and continued prosperity of the country,
VIC ask your acceptance Of the nomination.
The President replied as follows:
EXECUTIVE MANSION,
WASHINGTON d. c., June TO- 1872
Hon. Thomas Settle, President National Re
publican Convention; Paul Strobach, Elisha
Barter, C. 1. Sargent and Others Ijce Presi-
dents:
GENTLEMEN: Your letter of this date, ad-
visiug me of the action of the Convention held
in Philadelphia, Pa, on the 9th and 9th of this
the Presidency by 1t, Is received.
| accept the nomination, and through you re-
turn my heartfelt thanks to your constituents
for this mark Of their confidence and sup
port
If elected in November and protected by a
kind Providence in health and strength to per-
form the duties Of the high trust conferred,
promise the same zeal and devotion to the good
Of the whole people for the future Of the official
life. as shown in the past.
Past experience may guide me IN avoiding
mistakes inevitable with noviCes in all profess
siOns and in all occupations.
When relieved from the responsibilities of my
present trust, by the election of a successor,
whether it be at the end of this term or the next
I hope to leave to him, as Executive, a coun-
try at peace within its own borders, at peace
with outside nations, with credit at home and
abroad and without embarrassing questions to
threaten its future prosperity.
With the expression of a deep desire to see q
speedy healing Of all bitterness of feeling be-
tween sections, parties, or races of citizens, and
the time when the title of citizen carries with it
all the protection and privileges to the most ex-
allied, l subscribe myself, very respectfully,
your obedient servant, l. S. GRANT.
This is not so Wordy, but is equally as
satisfactory as the reply of Horace Greeley
accepting his nomination. 1t is a hundred
times more satisfactory to majority of the
voters

WASHINGTON, June l3.-Ihere are nu-
merOus inquiries as to the exact status
of the bill to refund the cotton tax re-
ceivcd here. The bill is still pending be-
fore the Committee on Ways and Means,
and report early next session is expected.
The friends Of the bill claim that Congress
has manifested a feeling favorable 10 us
passage by the defeat ofthe Morrill, amend
ment and prohibiting it by almost unani-
nous vote.
The exactiOn by the Secretary of the
Treasury of two cents per pound tax from
the proceeds of cotton is awarded by the
Court of Claims.
Senator Wilson, in a letter accepting the
nomination, reviews the history of the Re-
publican party, which in the language of
the Philadelphia Convention, he consid-
ers a national necessity. He gracefully ac-
cepts the nomination, and says if the peo-
pie ratify it he will endeavOr faithfully to
fulfill its duties.

sion office, saying the amnesty act restors
the right to hold offices to those not eX
cepted, but does not in any other respect
relieve those who have been dislOyal from
any of the legal penalties, restrictions or
consequent upon their dis
loyalty, or the presumption thereof, nor
