so he rushes off to C%happaqua, that the
first who seek him in his rural retreat shall
address him as the "great American wood
chopper,'-a title quite as sonorous and
high-sounding as any that has been assumed
by White-House aspirants, in the last thirty
years. But, unfortunately for Mr.. Greeley,
the trees at C~happaqua are by far the most
valuable part of his estate, and, in slashing
them down, he is e~vincing the same radi-
cally destructive policy which has marked
his career Gin the opinion of Democrats) for
the last thirty years or more. While all
the good people of Westchester county
are crying out ,s.a+ .
"Woodman, spare that tree,

HORACE GREELEY finds plenty of relief
from his more arduous duties of wood-chop-
ing to write nearly a full column letter in
reply to a remarkably brief note from Carl
Schurz, but when any one suggests that it
would be well for him to write a letter in
response to the Baltimore nomination, his
mighty axe is brought into requisition at
once. ''That clump of Chappaqua trees
must be whacked down." he replies, ''and
the Democracy of the country will certainly
excuse me, when they consider the arduous
labors | have on hand"
BY the way, this wo~od-chopping business
OF the saw-dust philosopher has an exceed
ingly interesting history to it which may be
happily written up one of these days. tits
said that he left the Tribune office the mo-
ment the news of his nomination at Cincin-
natl reached him, and s~traightway put for
~Chappaqua, with an axe on his shoulding,
that the world might see how a great phi
losopher could employ his time to advan-
tage in these ~reformatory and non-destruc-
tive days. He had made Lincoln the great
''~Rail-splitter" of his time, and if he could
only become the mighty axe-man of the
forest-the great w~oodehopper of the
ninteenth century = his political fortunes
would be made, and his election to the Pres
be assured beyond a doubt. And

WE have the authority of the Philadel-
phia Press for saying that q. w. Gusts
Lee, president of the Washington and Lee
University at Lexington, Virginia, striking
ly resembles his father, General Lee. He
is about thirty-nine years old, one of the
best scholars West Point has ever produced,
modest and retiring to a fault, but with
great executive and organizing ability, and
a wonderful hold upon and influence over
men. He bids fair to be one of the great
college presidents. During the past year
the university has received a legacy of
s75, 900 from Mr.. Bailey, of New Orleans,
and Mr.. s. Mccormick, of Chicago, has
promised to give it an observatory and tel

The following lines, copied from the oath
book of the Had, Pope's translation are a
good deal more than prophetic. We COM
mend them to our scholarly neighbor of the
EnquRsr for perusal and exegesis:
Since Ulysses band
Hath slain the traitors, heaven shall bless the
land,
None now the kindred or the unjust shall own; %
Forget the slaughter brother and the son
Each future day increase of wealth shall bring,
And DER the past oblivion stretch her wing.
Long shall Ulysses in his empire rest,
His people blessing, by his people blessed.
Let all be peace"

THE editor of the Enquirer is apparently
quite delighted that he was able to decipher
Greeley's handwriting at the first attempt.
The Democrat who can make any thing
straight or satisfactory out of Greeley's
political record in the past, should have no
difficulty in deciphering his handwriting, if
it were a thousand times more blind and
hieroglyphic than the picture-writing of the
Egyptian priests.

Mr.. GREELEY says he is a Republican,
staunch as ever; Senator Trumbull says
he is none the less a Republican than ever |;
Upton swears he was never more of a Re-
pu blican than now !; Sumner says he goes
for Greeley to save the Republican party,
and so they all say when addressing Re-
publicans. But Democratic orators pipe to
a different reed. With them everything is
essentially Democratic and lovely. Even
Greeley himself is a Democrat after their
own hearts. 1t is evident that somebody
is deceived-that somebody is going to be
hugely taken in. Is it the wood-chopper,
or the wood-chopperecs?

THE TAIL wAGeiNG THE uos.

The little faction of Republican sore.
heads, who were " down f." on Gen. Grant
because they were not allowed to get their
noses into the Federal pap-trough in ad-
vance of all other greedy aspirants for
office, came so near the fag-end of nothing,
in point Of political strength and numbers,
that it may well a~stonish the world to see
the influence they have exerted over the
once great and powerful Democratic
party of the country. With that won-
derful l~egerdemainist and political Me-
phistopholes, Carr Schurz, as a tail.piece
to the Democratic party, it may not be
surprising to know that the tail ways the
dog, and not the dog the tail. A handful
Of greedy and unsatisied Republicans,
hungry after anything that might turn up
in the shape of a Federal office, have been
SO dextrously maneuvcred by this politi-
cal juggler, with the aid of Greeley's jail
BIRDS" grog-shop supporters, rum
mics, ~" black-legs," r" thieves, Ds'brothel-
keepers" and penitentiary residents
(as the Tribune has heretofore so elegant
classified them.) that they have forced tn e
Democratic party into support of their cali
didates without SO much as a particle o
recognition at the hands of their chief.
Except as the eyes of a few Demo-
CT ats are now turned towards Louis
vile, there is no Democratic organ
ization or Democratic name in this
country, nor is there the ghost of a Con.
sentative party from ''proud old Accomac'
on the eastern shore to the 6 pillared ALLIE
ghanies' that herd the clouds in the west =
ern part of the State. Both these political
organizations have given up the ghost so
efEectually that they are practically deader
than a shotten herring. They have not
life enough left to resent a political snub-
bling of the most humiliating sort. A par.
ty Boosting of two million and a half of
voters is so completely snubbed by its
nominee for the Presidency that he virtually
refuses them any further recognition than
~graciously to accept their votes, and prom
Use them a few back seats in DR.. Greeley's
new political church. If this is not the
tail wagging the dog, then we do not I'M
derstand the relative proportions and true
makeup of the dog at all. In compliment
to the convention got up by Greeley,
Schurz, Trumbull & Co., at Cincinnati, the
whole Democratic party, including the
Conservative wing of it in Virginia, con-
sents to be waggcd for the next four years
as the most pitiable body ever attached to
a forlorn political tail. A
In the meantime, this Republican tail
that wags the Democratic dog, refuses to
be recognized as any part of the insulfera-
Bile dog to which it is attached, but declares
most emphatically that it is "no less
thoroughly and earnestly a Republican tail
than it ever was" Verify, the Democrat
ic party, which was wont to lord it over the
country i'll exceedingly high fashion, has
become a most pitiable object when it con-
SCENTS to become the neucleus of the Greeley
comet, the head of which is to be invisible
while the tail plays the most conspicuous
part of the whole body.
