tI0n9.D
CLEVELAND, Ohio. Sept. 24-At Hamilton,
O., Mr.. Greeley spoke briefly saying he expect
ed that on the night of the 9Th of October the
people of Indiana would send forth their ma
jestic voice on the side of national reeoncilia-
ton. The great liberal wave is now sweeping
over the country, destined to efface all distinc-
tions of race aud all past bitterness; and to
wipe out all this you will scarcely find any where
a heartier response than from that people
Last night not less than. $4,000 ~ met at In
dianapolis to say that so far as their State was
concerned they would speak in an unequivocal
voice. They are with you; they are for you.
The Liberals of Ohio and of all the States in
declaring that the strife having ceased, hatred
shall cease, prescription shall cease, the dis
franchisenent shall cease; the whole American
people united under one flag and animated by a
patriotic impulse shall march forward once
more in that career of greatness and prosperity
planned and prepared for them by our own rev.
olutionary fathers. (Applause.) Mr.. Greeley
continued at some length in favor of receonc IL
alton. At Dayton, Ohio, Mr. g. spoke as fol-

Horace Rises us Explain.
! FelloW-citizens Of Dayton II propose to no.
tiee one or two of the million calumnes which
have been aimed at me. l take up the Dayton
Journal of this morning. l find myself credit
ed with saying at Vicksburg last year that
hope the time will come when the soldiers that
fought with Lee and johnson will occupy as
proud a position in the hearts of the American
people as the soldiers VINO r0ugnt with Grant
and Sherman. No such words as these ever
escaped my lips; no such thought as that never
even entered my heart. What dds say speak
of that war wasted, heart broken people,
is this: that I trusted the day would come
when the soldierly qualities and military genius
of Lee and Stonewall jackson would be re-
garded as the heritage of the American people;
that they would be spoken of as American sol
diers who, though in cause which L think a
bad cause, illustrated the military capacity
genius and energy of the American people
For after all, fellow citizens, they were our
countrymen, our mistaken countrymen. our
misguided countrymen, our brave, fatally en-
ring countrymen, and they that are dead are
now our dead countrymen.
did not say that, and if any man judged
that little word of consolation to that heart
broken people, let him vote against me. Mr..
Greeley continued by making some explanation

far in advance .of any published account.
While Portland has a splendid reputation in all
parts of the country for the fine patterns and
durability of the carriages turned out we can
safely express the opinion that the stock which
Mr.. Kimball offers is fully equal to any ever be-
fore exhibited. No market in the world can pro-
duce more elegant vehicles than these, and it is
expected that purchasers will be present from
all the great markets of New York and New
England. Gentlemen in our own State, desir-
Gus of getting fine Marriages will find this sale
worthy of their attendance, as everything offer
ed will stand for just what it is worth, and be
disposed of without reserve.

their steps, directing them In the way Of Plymouth

Sermon by the Rev. MIR. Campbell to
the Advcntists OF the Cooper Institute

A small but select congregation sat in the Cooper
Union yesterday to listen to Mr. Campbell on the
subject Of destruction by nre and water. The con.

They constitute a branch of the Church of the
Coming Woe, presided over by the venerable

The preacher spoke as follows:-The facts to
