GRANTS POSTMASTERS.

Jacob A. Mead, a superserviceable
Postmaster at Mount Morris, New York,
has been showing his devotion to Grant
10y forging reply to some inquiries ad-
dressed to the President of the Greeley
Club, in Mount Morris. The New York
World says that when the matter became
public, this insolent official published
letter in which he admits that he opened
and answered Mr.. Alleys letter, and
complacently avows that he has been in
the habit Of looking over all circulars and
letters addressed to Grant or Greeley
clubs, to see if there was anything new
for the campaign. The postal service of
the country has arrived at pretty state
when postmasters unblushingly proclaim
that they are in the habit of inspecting
corresdondence which they suspect is OF
a political character.

HARD.-The Louisville Courier says:
At the recent election for delegates te
Congress in Utah. the offic al vote stood
for George r. Cannon. the Mormon can
didate, 20 1863; for George K. Maxwell,
Radical, 1912. And Maxwell now pro-
tests against the giving of the certificate
of election to Cannon. Az Cannon's
majority was merely some nineteen thou
sand and few odd votes, it does look
deuced hard that Maxwell should be
denied the certificate, now dosen't it?
Indeed it does, but when and where
did you find Radical that cared any
thing about political justice. We know
of a Radical Governor in the South that
gave certificate Of election to man
who was defeated by majority of 5000
votes But what did the Governor or
his fraudulent nominee care; AID Grant,
to showed how little he cared, when the
impostor was kicked out of Congress
the President consoled him with an i'm
portant office. These things look hard
and really are so, but you might as well
sing psalms to dead donkey as expect
to make an impression on the iron-clad
Radical conscience.

The Petaluma Argus says: A few days
ago we announced that a gentleman of
this city claimed to have discovered the
true theory of perpetual motion, and one
that bears the practical test of applica-
ton. To-day we were shown the draw
ing of the machine, with which the
inventor claims he can drive the entire
machinery of the world, and qualities
this assertion only in this way: That
there is possibility mot probability
of there being something that he has
overlooked in the details that can only
be discovered and remedied by putting
his invention to a practical test. To
show that there are those who have all
confidence in the success of this machine
we will simply add that prominent
citizen of this place has offered, for cne-
twentieth interest in his invention, to
pay all the expense and attend to all the
legal business necessary to the perfecting
and procuring of patents from the differ
ent Governments.

Tot al...............


This calculation reduces the area of
the conflict to nine States. OF these it
is not unreasonable to expect that In
diana, one of the New England States,
Florida, Louisiana, California and Ne
vada, will declare their preference for the
candidate of amity and reform. These
States, under those conditions, would
give Mr.. Greeley Al additional votes,
making a total of 100, being 6 more than
necessary; so that, gaining the others,
the Reformers could lose the single New
England State claimed, or California,
and still elect their candidate. Let any
unprecedented man look over this state
ment, and we do not think that he will
condemn it as unwarranted by the data
afforded by the political condition of the
country. The prospects of Mr.. Greeley
are bright and full of hope. Let the Re-
formers of Nevada go into the contest
with renewed faith, with resolute de-
termination to preserve their State from
the disgrace of aiding in the attempt to
re-elect Grant.

THE ADMINISTR AND THE
PENITENTIARY.

The imminent and pressing needs Of
of the Administration during the late
desperate conflict in Pennsylvania, have
led the firm of Grant, Cameron & Co.
into making some strange alliances.
Hartranft, the firms candidate for Gov
ernor of Pennsylvania, was deeply impll-
Gated in the frauds for which Yerkes and
Mercer, one prominent financial opera
tor and the other the Treasurer of Phila-
delphia, We're condemned to and con-
fined in the penitentiary. Before Ierkes
was tried, and while he was at liberty, he
made sworn statement that showed
Hartranft was an accessory in the very
transactions for which Yerkes and Mer-
Ger were adjudged felons. Now, mark
the course of the Administration. Ierkes
is pardoned, and comes forward and
asserts, this time not under oath, that
the charges of completely he formerly
preferred against Hartranft were not
made by him, but by some unknown man
that personated him. So the Admins
tration Governor of Pennsylvania is
whitewashed by the unsworn declarations
of pardoned convict. Ought not the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to be
congratulated on the election of a Cover
nor whose honesty requires to be vouched
for by testimony from the States prison
Grant will soon have to exclaim with
Pyrrhus, that another such victory viii
be worse than defeat.

PROSPECTS OF THE CAMPAIGN.

The recent elections in Ohio, Pennsyi-
vania and Nebraska, have sent the Radi-
calls into frenzy of delight, and they
assert that the presidential contest is now
virtually decided. and that the election in
November will merely be the formal de-
elaration of foregone conclusion of the
people. Let us see how this is. Taking
a careful survey of the field, and judging
the political inclinations of the several
States from the indicia afforded by pre-
vious elections, we thinl that the follow
ing estimates will be found to approach
very closely the actual result as deter
mined in November.

Radical economy and honesty is well

Radical economy and honesty is well
exemplifed by the following extract:
Governor Orr, of South Carolina, says
when he was in the South Carolina Leg
islature, few years since, the legislative
expenses were $50. 900 year. Now they
amount to S900,00 Then the employ
ees of the General Assembly numbered
twenty or thirty; now four hundred.
We published few days ago speci-
men of the doings of these South Caro-
lima Legislature rasca's who had swept
the State Treasury of every dollar. But
what of that? Are they not good Grant
men, and does not that virtue excuse and
cover every crime known to erriug man.

The WAY IT WAS DoNE.-Already the
Geographic dispatches begin to reveal the
mode by which Hartranft was elected.
An officer of election makes a complaint
against one of Grants officials, a Collec-
tor of Internal Revenue, for Offering
bride to the former, and asking him to
stuff the ballot-box with Hartranft bal
lots. We predict that there will be some
startling frauds revealed before the Penn
sylvania election is done with.

The late Duke of Brunswick used to relate
the following anecdote with great glee:
On a certain occasion, one of the heaviest of
German soldiers had the duty of mounting
guard at one Of the ducal hunting-seats, and,
not to perplex the poor fellow with more ideas
than he could conveniently carry, one single
motion" was, with difficulty, rammed into
his noddle-viz: that he must present arms to
the duke, should his highness pass that way
He was left to his cogitations, which, we need
hardly say, were Of that class described BY the
renowned author Of 'knickerbocker' History

he saw an unpretendug looking person ap-
proach the place where he was seated, dressed
ia the common German hunting-dress-a sort
of queer smock-frock, leather breeches, and
combinations.

sage.)

A Parody.

The shades Of night were falling fast.
AS through the city streets there passed
A youth, who trudged through mud rain,
Crying with all his might and main,
"Any Rags"
His looks were sad, his eyes were dull
His great big bag was nearly full;
And though his strength was failing fast,
He cried with voice like trumpet blast,
'Any R-a-g-s?
No friend looked out with plying eye,
And blest him as he wandered by;
Without blessing, cold and sore,
He cried aloud at every door,
ANY Rags ??
Beware the watch p an old man said;
Hes on the corner just ahead"
Jpn watchfull be-" the youth replied,

"Beware the watch dogs awful bite
Beware the dangers of the nightP
And as he hurried out Of sight,

There in the wet and mud he lay;
His mouth was fixed, but seemed to say, -,

Another picker had stolen his game;
His bag, once full stood open wide
