making are generally very profitable. Mr. A.
Speer of New Jersey, one of the largest produ-
GERS in the East, commenced butts few years
ago in small way to make wine from currants,
blackberries, and other fruits. He soon turn
ed his attention to grape raising, and planted
large vineyards, from which his famous Port
Grape Wine is made, which chemists and physi-
clans say rival the world for its beneficial effects
on weakly or aged persons or scrofulous CON-

SPECIMEN ROORBACK.-We have got hold of
what apears to have been an extra or campaign
sheet issued from the Leavenworth Times Office,
the eve of the delegate elections in that city,
to influence the election of delegates in favor of
d. r. Anthony. Among other things it contains
what porport to be dispatches from various parts
Of the State announcing the election of delegates
in favor of Anthony for Congress. One of them
reads thus:
"TRoY KAN. Aug 9.
"CoI- r. ANTHONY: The delegation from this County
"R. s. n"
Who is .R. s. MI" We do not believe that
such despatch was ever sent from Troy, OF re-
ceived at L:avenworth. 1t was manufactured to
order in the Times Office, as doubtless were the
other dispatches published.

A MILITARY DICTATOR.-This is one of the
frightful names the Liberals apply to Grant, TO
scare the people from his support. They claim
that he is bent upon establishing military des-
potism in the United States Despots are usually
not over modest and never neglect an opportuni-
ty to put themselves forward. Wherein did Grant
ever exhibit the characteristics of despotf At
the outbreak of the war, he applied for snbor-
dinate position in the army; and every subse-
quent promotion was conferred upon him for val
uable services, unsolicited by himself. The Pres
idency was forced upon him, and he has received
denomination without asking for it. Had he been
asxions for reelection, he would have taken oc-
casson to pamper and propitiate the political
howlers who get up the capital and furore for
Presidential campaigns, instead Of snubbing them,
as he has done. If he wanted to establish mill
itary despotism, there herd of small calibre
military pop gums bowling against him all over
the country, whom he could secure as his veriest
dogs in furthering his designs, by a simple word
or wink. The fact that he has kicked these fel-
lows aside, shows that he does not wish to foist
upon the country the plant material of which
tools nre made to do despot's bidding. A Die
tator, indeed!

A new difficulty has lately sprung up with re-
TERRENCE to the Presidential ticket, which OF
course, was not unexpected, but which Is none
tbs less weighty. This difficulty consists in q
demand. made by the editor of the Springfield
EcprbIican (Mr. Boweles,) one Of the mainstays Of
~. Crerl.y movement, that the Nice-Presiden-
tial candidate withdraw, because he is an irrefor
,n.bIe ,lrupkard. Brown has given sneh con-
elusive evidence of such . necessity, by his con-
lnct in his late visit to the East, that for those
who. i'm the ant-Greeley dilemma, adopted the
Gra,,rv alternative the new dilemma has arisen
whether il is better to accept OF the disgrace
which lies in giving up Brown, or the danger
which must, Of necessity, result HUN h"u'''s "H

That Brown has long indulged IN drunkenness,

what thousands saw aud what hundreds of

found that it was the best to acknowledge the
thing in the main in n letter To Ex-Governor In

gives evidence of the degradation of the man.

w We are surprised that the Liberal State
convention did not adopt resolution denoun-
cling the biundering fnanciering of Gov. Harvey.
The Governor recently drew over $sOO.OOO for the
State, and doubtless brought it in the shape of n
draft The bank might have broken, OF tn. draft
been worthless. Now, that eminent Liberal.
Sam. Crawford, was too sharp for that. When
he was Governor he sold some State bonds in
New York, but refused to take draft for the
amount. He insisted npon the money. and re-
ceived it in one Thousand dollar bills. To guard
against being robbed, he sewed the money mp in
his shirt tail; and when he brought them to Kan
sas, none of the banks could them, but ex-
pressed them back to New York, and received
small bills for them. The Thousand dollar bills
were disinfccted before being put in circulation
again. e

For District Judge, Second Judicial District
P. L. HUBBARD.
Cheir stxIe Of Warfare.

tn. op,o.;t;on elements have already develop
en- the stvIe of warfare they propose to wage
arainst the Republican ticket. 1t is by resort
to the meanest kind Of personalities, and they are
coufining their attacks almost exclusively to the
candidate for Governor, Mr. Osborn. His family
affairs are not even respected, and his marriage
to q daughter of Judge Delalay furnishes them
with much of their ammunition. They say that he
married Delahay's daughter to gain residence,
and that his nomination is designed to secure the
Judpe from punishment for his msdeeds. As for
marrying to gain residence, We heard the same
thing said of Thatldeus II. Walker, long before he
was talked of as Liberal candidate; but as Mr..
Walker is personally gentleman, and the char
acter of his family above reproach, we trust that
no Republican will retaliate upon his supporters,
by dragging his family into the dirty fight.
r But there are Inconsistencies in the mOngrel
ticket, that should be exposed. One great object
of the Liberal Convention, was to bamboozle the
Land Leagners Of Southern Kansas and thereby
secure their support. To accomplish this, they
adopted clap-trap resolutions, and backed them
mp by nominating for Congress w. X. Laughlin,
who for four years past has been deceiviug the
settlers in Southern Kansas, aud involving them
in fresh difficulties. He has been kept at WASH
ington, at their expense, under pretence of labor
ing for their interests, but has done nothing lint
impose upon them.
Then, on this Land Reform and Anti Monopoly
ticket, they have nominated for Governor Thad
deus Fl. Walker, the greatest land speculator and
monopolist in the State. He has his thousands
and tens of thousands of choice all over the
State, and is into it so deeply that he cannot pay
the taxes upon them, thus even depriving the
State of so much revenue, and adding to the bur-
dens of taxpayers of less means. His lands are
of no use to himself, and are kept from the hands
Of the industrious settler, who might make them
of service to himself and to the State.
But it would have been inconsistent in the Lib
erals not to have shown that they are irving to
humbus the people with this cry of Reform, as
well as with every other.

Office any longer, have been left out in the cold.
As far as they are concerned, the Liberal specu-

mittee for Congress, was unceremonionsly repu-
dated. Perhaps they mean to let Parrotf, Rob

WHAT CoLoRED MEN EXPECT FROM GREELEY's
NIGGER-FATING FRIENDs.-At Waverly, Pike
County, Ohio, the Democrats who support Gree
ley show their regard for colored people by raising
a mob and driving them out of the village. A
colored barber, very respectable man, settled
there recently, opened shop and was inst pre-
pared for business, when few roughs " went
through his shop. and the barber compelled
to flee for his life. This is the class Of men that
Sumner wants the colored people to vote for.
