BISMARCK BEATS A RUSSIAN JOE.
The Paris Iat,1c SAYS that some
time ago the Prussian government
agreed to sell all the French chasse-
pots taken during the war-having
need Of the money and not designing
to use them for its own armirs-to a
political or a military parsonage from
from South America. The bargain
was concluded, and all that remained
to be done was some formalities, when
at the very moment Of delivery the
Prussian government suddenly chang
ed its mind and broke off the whole
negotiations At the last moment
the Berlin Cabinet learned that in this
affair the South American was only
an intermediary, and that the arms
had been really purchased by Russia.

why the South Supports Mr., Greeley.

Gen. Bradley T. johnson, formerly of this
State, delivered an address before a Liberal
meeting in Faneuil Hall, Boston, on Thursday
We quote: 1.-THE South desires peace because
it is necessary for US The sole controlling de-
sire why we went for Horace Greeley for Pre-
dent loud applause was because we expect
ed that would hasten it. The South thought
he had been eminent for kindness and gener-
osity; he had been liberal and brave, and was
the only public man we knew OF that had taken
such a position and could promote our welfare
Applause. When we took up his support
we thought his character was SO far above dis
pute and cavi that the fact of our support
would be pledge Of good faith forever APP
plause.l We have got tired of reiterating
pledges and plighting honor. We have told
Government, and we do not intend to reiterate
that same pledge over again. Applause Our
word is as good as our bond. We took Horace
Greeley because we supposed our support of
him would remove all the old issues from the
public mind, and We would be able to go for
| ward and discuss questions of peace and recon
citation in which We are so vitality concerned.
We supposed if you asked for pledge of our
support Of the Union we could point to him as
one of the strongest supporters. Applause.
If you asked about the slavery question, we

been foremost and ablest in its overthrow. IF
you asked about the negroes rights, we could
rely upon Horace Greeley, because he had al
ways been prominent in that direction. APP
plause. The argument that there will be an
attempt to pay the Confederate debt is worth
less, as all Union soldiers know, because the
| very paper bore on its face the announcement
that it would be redeemed six months after
| treaty Of peace between the Confederate States
and the United States That never can hap
pen, hence the paper which was sold soon after
the war at q cents pound, can never be re-
deemed With regard to the argument that
Confederate soldiers will ask to be pensioned,
do not discuss that point until we ask for such
pensions; but you all know that we shall not
ask your aims, and would not take them if Of

Mr.. Greelav's Tour.

Our liberal standard bearer is now on tour
to the great West, where he goes to meet vari-
Gus engagements with agricultural and indus
trial institutions He is everywhere met by a
great popular uprising and the benignant face
of the old philosopher does not fail to create
the widest enthusiasm.
Numberless are the speeches that he is max
ing along the route, but they contain nothing
but what every admirer of Honest Horace
would delight to read. His political illusions
are most happily made and well received. If
he continues on his way as he has begun he
will have q most triumphant tour, and will gain
ablaze with Liberalism and 1t will receive its
chosen champion with the greatest cordiality
and the warmest enthusiasm. Success to Mr..
Greeley. Norfolk Hrainaan.

1t is gratifying, says the Baltimore Gazette,
to notice the wonderful amount Of vigor that is
being infused into the pending campaign by the
Democratic and Liberal Republican Leaders,
The necessity of thorough and complete organ
ization has become SO apparent that every pos
sible step will now, we hope, be taken to ac-
complish that desirable end. Our friends every
where are active and vigilant, and the prospects
of glorious victory grow brighter and brighter
every day. The contest in Pennsylvania pro-
misses better things than the most sanguine
imagined when the fight began, and the cleo
ton of Buckalew in October will be the certain
defeat of Grant in that State in November. In
Indiana the gallant Hendricks is making a
vigorous canvass, and our friends there are en-
tirely confdent of an overwhelming triumph
In New York the nomination of Francis Kerr
nan placed the matter in such shape that the
only question now discussed is how large his
majority will be. In fact, the political outlook
generally is of a character to fill every patriotic
heart with joy. 1t is clear that the people have
risen in their might, and are fully determined
to shake off the Grant incubus that now hangs
over the nation, and restore the Government
once more to its ancient purity and prosperity.

TY FAIR ON THE 18TH, 10TH AND

Horace GreeleY,s Speeches.

We devote much of our space this week to
the publication of few of the many admirable
speeches delivered by Horace Greeley on his
recent tour to the West, as the most entertain
ing and profitable matter we could furnish
them, and hope that none of our readers will
fail to give them careful perusal. These
speeches add much to the great fame of their
author heretofore acquired. He was known to
be man Of vast intellectual ability, writer Of
remarkable force and power, with character
for integrity unimpeached and unimpeachabe,
and for patriotism pure and disinterested, but
he was not known to be one of the most fertile,
and most effective political speakers in this
country, as his able, numerous and varied
speeches on this tour SO clearly demonstrate.
If oratory, as the rhetoricians define it,
consists in the power to persuade and convince,
then Horace Greeley is an Though he
may not possess the graces of Clay, Prentiss,
Voorhees,, Chatham or Burke. a
He speaks directly 10 the point with force
and perspicuity. His thoughts are strong and
are expressed in excellent language. The tele.
grapic abstracts We publish tail to give a true
idea Of the style of his admirable speeches..
Whilst he makes no pretensions to oratory,
he is one Of the most effective speakers who has
ever taken the stump in this country, SO well
supplied with good stump-speakers. His
speeches are all good, and, in the language. oil
another, seven those uttered from extemporiz
ed platforms and dropped from the steps of the
cars at the stations along the route, have been
among the best yet delivered during the cam.
paign. He has net uttered an unwise, an I'm.
generous, or an untimely word. His franknesl
has been pervaded with the genius of discretion
while his discretion has been dissolved and ut
terly forgotten in sincerity that is nobler than
prudence, and more convincing and command.
Ing than the most eloquent appeals.
The salient points made in these speeches
present the essential principles, the pivota
ideas of the present contest. 1t is matter o.
congratulation that Mr.. Greeley has taken thu
stump, as he embodies the spirit and policy oil
the Liberal and Reform movement better thar
any other man connected with it, and better
than any other is abet state itsreal significance
and intent. With few simple statements he
brushes away the whole tissue Of misrepresenta-
tons which his opponents have cunningly wover
about bis course in former years, and leaves hi
enemies with nothing to rest their base accuse
tons upon
La this connection, We invite attention to tht
address by Hon. Daniel w. Voorhees, on the oc
oasion of his introducing Mr.. Greeley to tn,
audience at Indianapolis 1t will be seen tina
he now endorses him thoroughly in eloquent
terms, though SO violently opposed to him wher
first nominated.

Greeley at Indiauapolis. 1nd;ana


The following is the latter part of the speech
of Mr.. Greeley delivered at indianapolis on
Monday night Of last week:
Fellow-citizens, let me say one word for recon-
citation. For years | have pleaded. for wears
have implored that strife and contention
should cease; for years have said, Let us
have universal amnesty and impartial suffrage !"
Applause. We have achieved impartial suf-
trage, NO man contests it. No man disputes
it. Nov give us universal amnesty. We ought
to have it. [Applause.] 1t is time that aliena-
ton should cease. 1t is time that hatred en-
gendered by the late contest should cease. II
is time that the American people, the whole Of
| them, should be asked again to assume the
| right OF power over our common nationality.
No outcasts, no aliens, none prescribed and
| then, united once more, take the vows of alegi.
ance, and support the honor, and unity, and
! the prosperity of this great republic. LAP
plause.l plead Decentralization perfect and
complete. L stand for amnesty so thorough
that no man shall be left outside of its circle
| desire to see every American recalled te
loyalty, being asked to stand equally with us or
a common platform of American nationality
[A,plause.]
Fellow citizens, We were promised this foul
years ago in the Republican National Platform
it. We have asked for it long enough, now LEI
the people say I'VE vii! have it." Applause.
In several States-in Virginia, in Missouri, il
West Virginia-the people have been asked
''Will you have every man enfranchised, NJ
man proscribed?" and they have answered
Yes ! yes! No prescription: universal amnes
ty. - The whole people will SO aDswer if thu
question can be fairly presented. I have pu
the question, | represent the affirmative Of
that question, and call on the people so tt
vote that no man shall doubt that the Ameri
can people demand universal amnesty, and the
restoration Of every withheld right to every
American-born or naturalized, on our soil.
People of Indiana, know your generous
hearts are with me. | believe your votes viii
testify that your hearts are sound and true
believe that you cannot be bought; | know tina
you cannot be bullied: and | feel that wher
your verdict shall be pronounced it will thrill

you and trust YOU Your hearts beat respon.

no ambiguity in your verdict, and nothing tt

20 Negroes.

This is the number of one instament of ne
groes sent from Virginia to Pennsylvania, at
the expense of the Federal Government and the
Government officials, to keep Grant and his
underlings fraudulently in Office. These forty
ta0o Virginia negro goters, passed through Ha-
gerstown on Wednesday morning last. They
are supported and their expenses paid out Of
the Republican Fund" and are, doubtless,
sent to different points in Pennsylvania to vote
against Buckalew, in charge Of the white men
who have been appointed a committee to con-
duct them from Virginia into Pennsylvania and
to vote them They will then be sent back to
their Virginia homes, uninj ured, with an extra
dollar or two in the pockets of each of them.
They arrived on Wednesday morning by the s
o'clock morning train ofthe Washington Coun-
ty railroad and were stealthily conveyed by the
white man who had them in charge, up the
back (Antietan) Street, under the dry bridge
from the Washington Go. Depot to the Cum

THE EFFECT.

AS the Lynchburg NeUS says, it would be a
great thing for this country if the Grant hordes
could be defeated. The moral effect would be pro-
digious 1t would be triumph ofpublic virtue
and good feeling over the malign and evil ele-
ments of human nature. No Southern man,
who has clear comprehension of the battle
that is now being fought, looks to the election
Of Greeley as means of getting the South
again into power. When venal and sectional
Northern journals represent that such is our OBJ
ect they do foul injustice to the Southern people,
Mr.. Greeley has testified that no Southern man
has approached him for an office. What are
offices to men gasping for the breath of life,
and who only ask to be relieved of the incubus
that Is crushing them out of existence? Gree
ley's election would be the acceptance of the
Olive Branch by all parties. 1t would be the
fulflment of Grants pious invocation, 'sLet
US have Peace" 1t would not be like the eleva-
ton of Andrew johnson, for the evident reason
that johnson was not elected to the position of
the Presidency, and could not be claimed to re-
present any but his own sentiments. IF Gree
ley is elected on the basis of peace and recon
Citation, those sentiments will have to be &C.
cepted and respected as the will and desire Of
the American people. The issue is clearly de-
fined between the Olive Branch and the sword,
between peace and hate, and which ever way
it is divided the spirit and policy of the govern
ment for the next four years will be CONFIRMED
thereto. Can any stronger reason be suggest
ed for zeal and activity on behalf of the Con-
servatives of the country?

Imnortant Elections.

will take place in Pennsylvania, Ohio and In
diana, and they will indicate the probable re-
suit of the Presidential election on the 5th OF

Pennsylvania and Indiana, with heavy gain
in Ohio. IF this belief be- verified by the re.

Radicalism, and Grants doom will be sealed.
