support Mr. Greeley.
ExSENAroR DooLIrTLE and Adolpk Kessler
have notified their intention Of being present

Tue Chicago Inter. ocean says "This Con.
gresslonal district, reprssen ted by General Will
liam L. Stoughton, who Ia giving us faithful
and able service on his second term, Is now, nc.
corIing to lls usage, casting about for q new
man, and the Indications are very strong that
Captain J. Z. Burroughs Of this village, will
be acceptable to a large majority Of the Repub-
llcan voters Of this district. He Is young man
OF excellent character, with a good military
record, and eminent for some years past at the
bar In western Michigan. During tho last
Presidential campaign he was estimated aa one
Of the most eloquent and effective stump speak.
ers Of our State lie Is a man OF genial and
Winning manners, hns personal presence, and
would, IN the estimate OF Republicans, ably rep
resent our Interests"
FRoN the following extract from the Boston
AdpsrftIsr IL would seem that some Of Mr..
BOWlOs' asslstAntson the Springfield RsPubiieGA
aredlssatisned with that journal: "The reported
retirement Of three members Of the stan Of the
Springfield RrpubiiedH, and their purchase of
the Springfield URiOR, Is political incident VI
some Importance 10 western MAssachusetts.
The Republicans theory Of journalism Is . very
good Onei but practically 1t leads 80 oflen to
extreme partisanshlp on the other side that its
best friends regarl It's theory as . counterfeit.
The RrpublicdR Is so we'll established as n news
paper that no opposition will be likely TO inter.
fere with It's prosperity but there Is room In
that section for q good newspaper which re-
speets the traditions Of tho Republican party
and has somo faith In Its future"
The Boston Globe thinks that "lust now Il
cannot bo said that there is any great show for
Mr.. Greeley for President He had but small
stock in trade tho day the CinolnnatI Conyen-
tion adjourned, and since then his stock has
Diminished Instead Of Increased. What few
Liberal Republicans he could count upon at
first were mostly Of tho free.trAde stripe, aud
the short month which has elapsed since bis
nomination was made has seon them all taken
away from him. The swlndle Of the political
traders OF 'ny.bloWn reputation by which
tariff reform was Juggled out Of sight and
'ferOclous prOtectionsr put forward, has had
It's natural effect. and arrayed tho sincere tart u
reformers against him In open opposition"
Tho New York COmasrcisi 4dVsrfiSsr says
"Tbe T,,buns no longer overnows with tele.
gram, and Ie,tsrs and John Uochrane no longer
deals out his portentious rhetoric over the sigma.
ture OF An Old Democrat "A Life Long
floltsr,' sc, a.. There Is a stay 10 the tide OF
these 'unoonstrained, unpurcLased, and unre-
strlcted utterances,' and the current sots strong
Iy tho other way. TIE great question Of the
day Is as TO the amount Of capital Greeley
b. ings into tho partnership with the Dsmoe rats,
and It is feared that his Republican assets are
aeIther numerous nor vAluAble."
THK polItIeal sItuatIon In Ohio IA descrIbed as
folloWs by tbe Cincinnati Ga s,ife; HAssuminR
the nomination of Greeley nj Baltimore. and Of
Grant At PHILADELPHIA, as nxed 6tctp, what IL
ths prospect In Uhlor Here the change Of ten
or nfteon thousand votes, out OF Ave hundred
and ten thousand, will shin the State from a
Republican to a Demoer attic majority, In this
State the weekly TrIbuns olreulAtes largely,
and IL might be ex peoted that that hold which
Greeley is supposed TO have upon the inRsnu,
Qua rural mind would be Rs strong In Ohio as
anywhere. The situation Of Ohio In every re.

the calculations Of the Ore eley- Democratic
