CAMPAIGN NOTES.

~ Voorhees-the Tall Sycamore Of the
Wabash--is syc-more than he was before
election Chicago Post.
lW" The Democrats do not crow over the
result Of the elections; the reason doubtless
being that they have eaten their crow.
eSy- Lawrence, Kansas, claims to have the
largest Grant Club in the United States. 1t
numbers !, 400 members, and is constantly
increasing.
Encouraged by the recent election,
and general review OF the situation, the
Wilmington Commercial says "The State
Of Delaware will vote for Grant & Wilson IN
| November. Add three more to the Repubh.
can column"
rY-Mr. George A. Halsey, the Chsirman Of
the Republican Committee Of New Jersey,
has issued a stirring address to the voters Of
that State, urging them to initiate their
| friends In the other States and place New
Jerseyin the Grant column.
~ Parties "going West" and Of be-
nevolent turn Of mind, are requested by the
Republican editors of New York City to look
out for an eligible situation for an ex-editor
OF that city, whose political career is just
terminating.
t5y The New York Tribune, commenting
upon the Pennsylvania election, exclaims
"And now we are in the open field ~ The
man who fell out OF thlrd.story window
was at first confused "but," said he, "the
moment struck the sidewalk knew where
was"
k8y" Colonel Alexander K. Mcclure, Chair
man of the Liberal State Central Committee
Of Pennsylvania, says in the Philadelphia
Press: pennsylvania is hopelessly for Grant,
and do not think either Ohio or Indiana is
likely, to vote for Greeley. regard the de-
bstable States as settled against us by the
October elections"
Gsy- The New York Tribune at last re-
tracts, in the fullest manner, all its base at
tacks upon Speaker Blaine. 1t waited be-
fore doing this until the October elections
had had the full benefit Of its libels. If any
thing could be more dastardly than the
original libel, 1t is the time and the circum-
stances attending the apology.
t3g- Charles O'Conor writes of Horace
Greeley; 81 regard the possibility of his
election with inexpressible aversion. If
the ideas of heather times prevailed would
cheerfully surrender my person as a sacri-
flee on the altar of that deity whose control
ling of events might thus be propitiated and
induced to save my country from impending
evil"
E5- The Kalamazoo (Mich.) Telegraph,
after careful study Of all the points in the
case and critical comparison of the chances
in each Congressional District in the State,
every tns tfIct nj tu5n eoniIH s ~viu
leave the Liberal Democracy without Re
preventative in Congress from the State.
,3y"T the New York Commercial has discov-
cred the following mysterious codicil to an
old will: "Let it be a plain marble slab.
No Latin--no embellishments. State when
nominated and when deceased. Get Coch-
rane to write epitaph-his style is so simple.
Whitelaw will distribute locks OF my hair.
Be kind to Tilton-he is foolish, but young.
Plant me in my favorite pumpkin arbor,
with q gooseberry bush for footstone.
II. G."
t5y-Our September victories in New En-
gland were the Vicksburg of the campaign.
Those of October are the taking of Atlanta
and the "march to the sea-" The capture
of Richmond and the Appomattox surrender
will come in November. But let us remem-
Der that our armies had to keep on marching
and fighting until the final victory. The
Republican army must do the same now to
insure the grand, eliminating triumph for
which all brave and true men hope Chicago
Journal.
tzynT The Lexington (Mo.) Caucasian claims
that it was the first newspaper in the coun-
try to nominate Greeley for President. 1t
keeps his name at the head of its columns,
and Immediately bclow-by way of platform
for the candidate to stand on-prints the fol-
lowing owe believe in secession, in the
rightfulness of slavery, in the illegality of
all Yankeenegro-b -bayonet amendments, and
the total reputation of all debts-Federal,
State and county-contracted by Radical
fraud, violence snd mlsrule."
r5y-" Reconciliation is making rapid
progress in New York. A Greeley club in
the Sixth Ward, and one in the Eighth, have
declared for Grant and Wilson. In the
Seventeenth Ward one Greeley club has dis
solved, and another consolidated with the
Grant club. The several Greeley headquar-
ters at the Glenham, st. Nicholas and
Spingler Hotels are to be consolidated to
save expense, and the organization is only
kept up to give the confusion Democracy
respectable funeral in November.
eSg-"More frauds out in Dakotal" Such
will doubtless be the report in all the Greeley
organs, in view of the fact that Brookings,
Republican, was, on the 9th, elected Dele
gate to Congress over both Armstrong,
Democrat and Liberal, and Moody, boiling
Republican. In the complete submergence
of the Greeley forces in the October typhoon
from the East, they have not yet walked up
to the fact that they are also egg9iied IN
Dakota. They will be sure to find it out,
however, by next week, and then look out
for the cry Of Fraud. ."-C Chicago Post,

ray~ Throwing asidethe personal influence
of Mr.. Hendricks, which seems to have car
ried him through the late elections in In
diana by very small majority, we find the
true verdict of the State, as between Repub-
licanism and Confederation, recorded in
the Congressional vote. This is the show
