FLASHES OF THE PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN.

Says the New Haven Register Greeley 1.-THE
country is convinced that change is absolutely
necessary. The revolt Is not confined to the leaders
as in 1867; IL extends to the rank and file. The
tide is rising day by day and hour by hour. With
such orators as Senator Schurz the field, the
republican ranks cannot be kept unbroken. The
handwriting begins to be painly visible even to the
organs of the postmasters and tide walters"
