GREELEY.
How the Campaign WAKES.

The Philadelphia Press says:-"Dr Livingstone
has been found and in few years the NEW YORK
HERALD win send out an agent to find the demo-
cratic party"
The Bridgeport (Conn.) Farmer fold line demo-
craft, ungraciously says s:-'We perform to-day the
most dsagreeab and distasteful act OF our whole
life In placing as our mast head the names Of Hor
ace Greeley and b. Gratz Brown as the candidates
OF the democratic party for President and Vice
President OF the United States" AS the old far
mer said to the cheese mites, LET 'em squirm."
What a funny idea-that OF the Hartford Times
(old Copperhead democrat). putting up the bars
against any further additions to the Greeley party |
Says the Wheeling Register Originally opposed to
Greeley 1--WE support the regularly nominated
ticket and will countenance no bolt nor defec-
tiOn.n
Welch paper in Pennsylvania talks thus OF
Greeley :-"Bip gny II Greeley mifin drmpl tamppl
nypunt scrgg Up Prllnty OF gmshz drullzmp
begphy in writ wemne dr. gunnozt." No, sir.
Mr.. Greeley uses gin in no shape. His beverage is
the limpid spring water Of Chappaqua.
Says the Norfolk Journal (democrat) 1.-THE
results at Baltimore are not as we would have had
them. But from now until sunset on the day OF
election we shall work for Mr. Greeley even more
ardently than we have worked against him."
The Richmond Wht0 (democrat says--"An ac-
counts from Baltimore concur In reporting an in
tense and widespread enthusiasm, and O deep
seated conviction that victory is within reach
We already breathe freer at the thought"
Says the Ohio Statesman (demOcrat :-''That
Horace Greeley will be the next President OF the
United States is, to our mind, certain as that his
life will be spared until the 4th OF March next"
Cries the Albany Journal (anti-Greeley) :-"Upon
both sides this is the most corrupt and shameless
to- ul,sa
bargain so disgrscefu to both sides, cannot de-
ceive the people and will not be endorsed by them"
CALCULATES the Boston Transcript anti-
Greeley :-"Mr. Greeley is before the country as
Presidential candidate in pursuance of an unprece
dented system Of political trafcking, the results
of which, II successful cannot fail of being of de-
moralizing character"
Says the Pittsburg Dispatch (anti- i-Greeley ave
know exactly now what forces we shall meet They
are strongly arrayed. In OCTOBER they will show
their strength to the utmost, and then every
patriot in the State should be az the polls to vote
for Hartranft, who leads the advance In the great
battle to be fought In October Tor Grant and the
Union."
The Portland Press (anti-Greeley thinks 1t
would be indeed ''strange II the man who has
shown himself incapable of forming correct opin-
ion touching any question Of vital importance to
the country, and whose vagares as a fnancier, po-
ltical economist and reformer have in turn ex-
cited the derisj0n Of his fellow citizens should be
selected for the practical administration OF affairs ~
A correspondent Of the Portland Press (anti-
Greeley writes from one OF the Northern towns in
Oxford county, Maine that all the democrats,
nearly to man, will vote for Greeley, but not
republican. II Is stated that there is not Greeley
man IN the town Of Phillips. The liberals are said
to be an unknown quantity in the West Somerset
section. How is this for the ''Star In the East ?"
The Allentown (Pa.) Ne,rs democrat) gives as It's
deliberate opinion 'that Horace Greeley is the
right man to lead in an inauguration OF q better
state Of things than has existed under the present
administration"
The Syracuse Journal administration talks
aloud about "Greeley, the Apostate," saying:-
"The republican party from which he has basely
gone does not waver. 1t has great and abiding
faith In its principles, for which 1t has trumphanty
fought on many fields, and it will move forward to
another national triumph grandly and proudly,
compact and confident under Its noble standard
bearers, Ulysses s. Grant and Henry wilson,"
The Bufralo Express administrator talks of
Doolittle and Greeley, the first and the last rene
gades," and says there was peculiar appropriate
ness in the election of Dootte to preside over the
Baltimore Convention, being the first renegade
apostate from republicanism.
Says the Buffalo Courier (Greeley democraD -
"without doubt many democrats have ac-
cepted his candidacy as "bitter pill'
or ''lesser evil.n But the situa-
ton is changed. The question is no longer
between Mr.. Greeley and some ideal democratic
leader, but between Greeley and Grant "
With all respect for the military achievements OF
General Grant, and with none whatever for his
civilian career either Before or since the war; we
maintain that he is not to be named with Horace
Greeley whether as to heart or brains, ability or
character
We learn from Des Moines, Iowa, that John A.
Kasson will or Congress In that district against
Frank w. Palmer, the regular republican candidate.
Mr. Kasson represented the district in the Thirty
eighth and Thirty-ninth Congresses.
The Cleveland Herald (administration) thinks
that If "Greeley enters the White House 1T will be
with democratic hook In his nose"
Says the Syracuse Courier Greeley democrat) -
"The ticket will be triumphantly elected. 1t ap-
peas to the whole nation by the integrity, the wis
dom the ability and honesty of its candidates. 1t
will rally to Its support every honest man who
loves his country, and will rescue her from the
power of Grant and his military rings that rule us
TO our ruin"
