haze acted as they did; but as northerner,
have been Gi!e of the first to advocate peace
when danger had rassed away, though not
without securing the liberties Of the blacks.'
sErhere are White men still disfranchised,
and for them | now plead. We have been
generous and just to the blacks. Let us, at
least. he just to the whites"
"lf the people only knew the whole
truth about carpet-hag governments there
would be no doubt of the result Of this can
yass."
"phe South has greatly sinned, but greatly
suffered and itleuled, and should be for
given"
"The robbers of South Carolina Wgtld be
on dead race out of the State two days af-
ter they hsard new government was elected
against Them"

SAxBrRy. PA, September 2G.-AIr. Gree
lev made speech at WilliamSport Pa. this
evening, in which lie called attention to the
Admins tration, Cabinet. Ministers, ard
office-hGfiers running and racing from ore
end of the country to the other to persuade
the people TO keep them in Office. He said

office, thereby keeping themselves IN place.

of which m. ,,,,.rnle ought to have tile ad.
vantage. TCries Of "ThapS so."
He said that since the election of George

has not been so much money spent by Dotn
parties as has been in this election by the
Grant party alone. III honest old Yer.

poured out like water to induce Democrats
to vote for the Grant ticket or stay away

"Now. gentIemepi If they elect their
ticket this fall, it will he becauae they have
one hundred dollars to our one."
Mr.. Greeley continued at some length,
touching upon most of the important topic
of the political r,nvass and finally returned
