WHAT IS TO BE GAINED Mr.. GREELEY's ELECTION.
Another charge is that Mr.. Greeley in favor OF Sc

pensions. Mr. Greeley not the only person In favor
OF paying for the slaves But answer all these charges
by saying that it is in Constitution that the
Rebel debt shall not be paid, and confident that you
