Monticello, n. Y, at its recent town elec.
ton, chose full Liberal ticket with the ex-
ception of single trustee.
Ex-Congressman Henry A. Reeves writes

viii support Grant. He simply refuses to
vote for Greeley. ....
Col. ScoVel has been unanimously en-
dorsed by the Liberal Republican Commit
lee of New Jersey, and will make an active
canvass of that State for Greeley and
| Brown. -.
1t has already been discovered that in
about one-half the State of North Carolina
5,40O more votes were polled than there
were males over tWenty-one years old, &C
cording TO the census of 1870.
Judge Hoge, of South Carolina, carpet
Dagger, at Grant rally at Newberry, S.
c., last week, called Senator Schurz "a red
whiskered Dutch puppy" Perhaps this
will win German votes for bis master.
A correspondent from Cuyahoga county,
Ohio, thinks that with the aid of the Ger
man vote, which is nearly solid for Greeley,
the usual Grant majority of nearly 1000
can be overcome.
The Savannah NelcS, which has been
one of the strongest opponents of ME-,
Greeley, condemns the boilers movement
and demands the entity of conservative men
everywhere TO overthrow Grants revolu-
tionary faction.
An attempt made to get up Grant meet
| ing of Scandinavian in St. Paul, Mimi, re-
suited in eleven persons being present. A
call for Greeley and Brown Club n Chi
cago is signed by seventy-three leading
Scandinavians of that city.
The Detroit Free Press, in reporting a
large Greeley and Brown meeting at Ann
Arbor, Michigan, says: "The call for the
meeting was signed by over three hundred
voters, over fifty of whom are Republi.
cans. Ann Arbor is getting thoroughly
aroused, and win give honest Horace ma.
jorlty in November"
VIM. NJ. Decamp, of Shueville, Iowa, a
Union soldier whose arm is withered from
a wound received in the war, aud now a
supporter of Greeley, replied to the taunt
that the man who shot him would vote for
Greeley, with the plump declaration: eyes;
and the man who received the shot will
vote for him too"
Five thousand people attended the recent
Greeley and Brown ratification meeting al

ALL over the country we have significant
evidences of the Republican siren 9Th which
is supporting Greeley and Brown. In
Monroe county, New York, the Rochester
Union contains cali signed by over five
hundred Republicans to ratify their nomi
nations. They embrace the leading men
of the party. About the same time the
Bath Advertiser had call for Greeley and
Brown, to which it appended the signatures
of five hundred Republicans in Steuben
county, New York. The Albany argus
says there are ffty-nine counties in New
York to which those counties are by no
means exceptions; that others viii do
equally as well, while some will do better.

IT appears that the Grant men are as
hard pressed in Pennsylvania as elsewhere
to get crowds TO attend their meetings.
The Pittsburgh Post of the 18th inst. says:

mony that negroes were paid enc dollar
per head for attending the Republican meet
ing last Saturday evening. and assert they

IT would seem that Grant is not now
sure of carrying even Massachusetts,. One
Of his organs, the Boston TraUeler, says of
Gen. Banks: "He thinks he sees the rising
wave and wants TO float on top" The
Erening Bulletin, more explicit, says he
wants TO be the Democratic and Liberal
Republican candidate for Governor of his
State. So, according to these organs, it is
the prospect of advancement which leads
one of the shrewdest politicians in New
England TO desert the sinking ship that
carries Grants political fortunes.

THE English Parliament has been asked
to raise a committee TO inquire into the
causes of railroad accidents and suggest
remedies for these painful calamaties. This
is a much needed improvement, which
should not be confined to Great Britain.
The investigation might be probably pro-

Terrible Disasters to the Acrtic Sailing
Fleet

Dispatches of late date received at
New York report that sad news is re-
ceived from the seal fishers by mail
from Newfoundland. Three steamers
and IL sailing vessels have been wreck
ed on the ice fields, As men have been
lost, and others have borne excruciating
sufferings. The most thrilling story IS
that of the loss of the sailing vessel
Huntsman, commanded by Robert
Deve, of Bay Robert. On the 2Sth Of
April, near Cape Charles, on the west of
Labrador, she was, with three other
vessels, struggling to get out Of drift
ing pack of heavy ice dashing against
each other in wild uproar, and in the
midst of a driving storm of sleet and
rain, when night set in, and soon after
a tremendous sea struck her, and flung
her boldly upon What is known as Fish
Rock, where she Immediately began to
break up. Just before she struck, three
of the crew jumped over the weather
side, with nope of escaping, but no
sooner had they cleared the ship than
they Were struck by huge ice foe, and
killed. The remaining SO men took to
the rigging, as the sea was breaking
over her, but soon both masts went
overheard, hurting them all into the
sea amid the whirling masses OF ice.
Forty-two were IN a moment either
drowned or crushed to death by the
ice. The others managed to scramble
upon the ice, but all save three were
more or less injured, some having arms
broken, others legs, and others ribs
crushed. Drenched with the freezing
IniapoaA h1r "a hsttap ooll
ing in terrible agony, and deafened by
the noise Of the ice foes, they spent
the dreadful night, and with the first
CLEAN of morning they made their way
as best they could, mile of, to the
ship Rescue, commanded by brother
of their captain, who had gone down
with his ship. But minority were ex-
| pected to recover.
| One of the saddest features in this
case is that all the men who were lost
belonged to one small fishing village,
Bay Roberts, on the north side of Con-
ception bay, and more than 80 of them
were married. 1t is said that there were
33 widows and more than a hundred or
phans made by this catastrophe Two
of the steamers lost were crushed by an
enormous iceberg, half mile in length,
and sunk in the same gale in which the
Huntsman was wrecked. They are the
Blood Hound and the Retriever. Those
hundred and fifty men were thus left
on the ice, with nothing but their cloth
ing. After terrible suffering they for
tunately reached Battle Harbor, few
miles off, where they were cared for, and
subseque ntly they were taken to St.
Johns. The other steamerwas the Mon
ticello. She sank near the island of st.
Pierre, while on her way to Boston.
Her passengers and crew were taken off
by French banker and brought to St.
Peters. She had been engaged in the
seal fisheries for the past three years.
Apprehensions were felt Of the loss 0
two other vessels, having sixty men on
board. The total catch of seals this
year will not exceed 200,000-less than
third Of that last year. The failure
has been caused by combination of
unfavorable circumstances, such as does
not occur above once in half century.
