| This silly meaningless expression
originating with Horace Greeley, WAS
never intended for any other purpose
than as a clap-trap expression to tickle
the thoughtless unthinking ear. On
last Wednesday evening VIM. M. Stone
used II for the same purpose in his
speech in this city. This tidal wave
party thought its al captandum vulgsss
character would help to swell the wave.
It, however, has been found that the
commercial, the monetary men Of the
land have became alarmed at the con-
tinuous singing Of this foolish song BY
the ecccntric isTnatic old man Greeley,
backed by the rebel element of the
country, which after its defeat In cross
ing bayonets, next tried to run the
country by repndiation. Hence Hor-
aces trainers have directed him to

When Greelcy's course ON this SUBJ
ject was deprecated by his friends,
ana ne was written TO, to change the
course Of the Tribune, he consented to
forego the advocacy OF such views,
and cried "on to Richmond" but dis
tinctly asserted that his views had not
changed. From that day to this he
