The Old Mems Grant Meeting.
BY John H. YATES.

JOHN H, YATES.
Well wife, we've had rneetin' at the schooI-house on
the hill,
And was chosen chairman to keep the old men still
But I found 1 couldn't do it; each man down his
cane would plant,
And shout with all the voice he had, 'iIm goin' in
for Grant J"
We talked about the past four years, what great
things had been done;
How the nations debt has melted like the SHOWS be-
fore the sun:
We said to keep it neltin do better thing we can't
Than to stick and hang together and all go in for
Grant.
we all looked through our spectaces upon the
naked facts,
Then drew the veil of charity DER giant Summers
We said: eve like you, Sumner, but go your way
We can't, y
Then made the school-house echo with a rousing
shout for Grant. e.'+.'s
We didn't have much charity for Trunbun OF for
Schurz
They stand around the party gate pair of snarIing
ours
Their speeches cannot harm US, nor make Grant toe
their mark;
He's an old Galena tanner, and knows how to handle
bark.
We talked about Grants smokin'-we thought it no
To vote that out of office we might vote one
And, SEEM we were smokers 'twouldn't do for us
to rant,
So we lit our pipes together and smoked the health
OF Grant.
In the days of the rebellion none of us would go to
fight,
But we read from morn till evening how he battled
for the right
He has been the ation servant in the days of peace
and war,
And treason neIts before him like the smoke of his
cigar ....-.f
After I'd adjourned the neetin' gave each friendly
grip;
We every one, determined to stand by the war-tried
ship;
We will not topple over, we will not even slant,
But put Our canes down firm and strong, and stand
up straight for Grant.

Never Heard of Greeiey,

A correspondent of the Springfield
Republican, describing a journey
through South Carolina, writes from
Beaufort as follows
Some have said the freedmen will
vote for Gleeley he has been their
firm friend and strong champion, and
they will be grateful. The freedmen
will vote just as their leaders tell them
to, and as for Greeley, nor one in twen-
ty hereabout ever heard of him, and I
do not believe the proportion of those
living in and about cities would greatly
exceed that. l interviewed one on the
Presidential question. He was of more
intelligence the average here, and said
when Grceley's name was mentioned
that Mr.. Black was "tellin' me de oder
day bout Mr. Greeley where does he
live - He thought the representatives
sent to Washington woul0 report how
matters were there, and that he should
vote accordingly. Another one knew
he voted the Republican ticket last
Presidential election, but who the man
was that he voted for he could not say.
It is not to be expected that people who
are SO thoroughly ignorant and whose
political guides have been those who
were bent simply on promoting their
own interests without regard to any
principles whatever, should vote with
any degree of intelligence.

Buried by Land Slide and Saved by a
Doc
From the Idaho City World

On last Monday Mr.. James Hanson,
who is engaged in mining in Eldorado
gulch, went from the claim to shut off
the water, and in a steep gulch or "a
vine started to prospect the ground,
when all at once, without warning, the
whole side-hill, capped with huge
bank of snow, caved off and slid down
the ravine, distance of seven hundred
feet, burying Hanson up and carrying
him along with the sliding mass the
entire distance. Hanson's dog shortly
afterward appeared on. the claim where
Nh Kelly (Mr. Hanson's partner) was
working, and was covered with mud,
and made some curious demonstrations
to attract Kelly's attention, but, think
ing that the dog had only been chasing
some gophers, Kelly did not follow
him, and the dog returned to the scene
Of the catastrophe About two or
three hours after that one of
the ditch tenders on Willis ditch
had his attention attracted by
the dog, and heard somebody's voice
crying for help, and, on repairing to
the place, he found Hanson covered up,
with the exception of his head, which
he managed TO get out above the SAND
and debris. Assistance being called,
four men worked for three-quarters of
an hour before they could extricate him
from his perilous position, and when
they succeeded in releasing him, was
found to be almost fayed alive. The
sliding Of the sand and snow over him,
down the steep ravine, had torn off
every stitch of his clothes and TaSDnd
the skin off Of him as though he had
been rubbed with sand-paper. His long
gum boots were rolled down straight
around his ankles, SO that they could
only be removed by cutting them off.
The unfortunate man was carried to his
cabin, and a messenger dispatched to
the town to DR.. Healey, from whom we
learn that though badly injured, no
bones were broken, and that Hanson is
IN fair way for recovery. It was GER
tainly a miraculous escape, and he may
well congratulate himself that his in

commended Greeley to his own party
but how could the Democrats support
him. He said sometimes man is sup
ported for small Office on personal
grounds, simply because he is an amia-
bic and worthy man-good qualifca-
tions for the position Such motives
alone, however, never govern the choice
of a President, who, to a vast extent,
shapes the whole policy of the govern
ment for veal or woe.
There is nothing in Mr.. Greeley's
personal traits and pecuharities to com
mend him for the high position to
which he aspires. On the contrary, a
man personally more unfit to fill the
office of Chief Magistrate of this mighty
government was never mentioned in
connection with it
But when distinguished gent emen
are mentioned in connection with that
lofty station, their principles determine
the suffrages of an enlightened people
more than anything else Tried by this
standard, Horace Greeley repels every
Democrat in the United States.
Mr.. Vorhees then dwelt at length
on Mr.. Greeley's position in respect
to the tariff question. Also upon the
distribution of power between the Fed
eral Government and the states, Greeley
had advocated the worst phases of
military reconstruction. All were known
by their fruits. He saw nothing in the
public life and conduct of Greeley to
gain the favor of any class of American
people, except manufacturers, bond
holders and nOnopOliStS.
He did not think it was necessary to
define his position in relation to Grant.
Those who had charged that he was
about to support him, only judged him
by themselves, and supposed he could
abandon his principles as easily as they
had theirs.
He thought he knew the hearts of
the laboring people who compose the
majority of the democratic party, and he
hazarded nothing III saying that even if
Greeley should be nominated at Balti-
more, and every democrat of distinc-
tion, whether in public or private life,
from one ocean to the other, should
support him, he would not receive an
average of more than 50 per cent. of
the democratic votes of the United
States.
In conclusion he said that he might
be asked what they should do to be
saved and to save the country. He
said in reply. The voters in the United
States are still without a candidate.
They could be enumerated in four
classes. $3.50.
1st. Genuine and sincere revenue re-
formers heretofore acting with the Re
publican party.
I'd. The German voters.
Sd. The Labor Reformers.
4th. The masses Of the Democratic
party. .... ....
He spoke in the interest of no man
as candidate. He has high hopes of
the wisdom and integrity of the con-
vention to assemble on the 9th of July.
He did not believe that such disaster
could befall them as the nomination of
Greeley

Miss Loche had turned deadly pale,

Electric SDectacleS,

A well known New York physician
has invented a species of electric spec
tacles which contain regular galvanic
pile in little shell cases, connected
with the side pieces Of the specatacle8,
and in putting them on this is applied
behind the ears to the bare skin. One
Of these on each side of the head keeps
up a constant electric current through
the brain, the nerves OF the face and
head, and their muscles. The current
is said to be so slight that it is not felt,
yet so constant that it cures every un-
natural condition of these parts.

Utah Jack.

0tdH Jdchs
Jack HaIyard was jolly tar,
Who loved a rowing life;
In every storm he found port,
In every port wife.
a farmer he was bred on land,
And lived like any lord;
But when he shipped and went to sea,
He had to live on board. ....
He liked plain dealing all his life,
But when he plowed the main
He found his work, as well as board,
Where both a deal too plain.
The use of ropes, or sails and shrouds,
OF masts and ribs and knees,
Like latitude and longitude,
He mastered by degrees.
He made an Conservation" once
The captain SAID was true;
he reckoned" he was living stu
When they were lying to.
But he resolved one day to quit
The briny deep for life,
And never more to go to sea,
Except to see his wife.
But Which wife he should anchor to
For life was not so plain.
He had a 81 gal" in Portugal,
Another one in Spain.
Another 81 duck" in Turkey dwet-
He did not like her rig.
He didn't care fig for her,
Her figure was so big.
Though Fatima was fat, yet she
Was sweet as any flower;
Jacks taste inclined the other way,
No lean-hke Pisca's tower.
He roamed through Italy to Rome;
nice girl took his fancy;
Then he took in two Sicilys,D
And then he left for Nancy.
And so, to cut his " true loves not"
This Mormon harun-scarum
Collected all his wives, and went
To Utah with his harem.
Like Lots one wife, should E'Utah's'' lot
Look back and turn to salt,
With such lot as his, the price
Would make a sumInersault;
And " Sal would then be very dear
At any price at all;
Saltpetre could not save the Ersaints' -
Should such a thing befall,
Tor women, whether salt or flesh,
The ''Church's" " pillars are
And Salt Lake Saints would let it slide
Without more fresh ones there.

Alexander H. Stephens on Mr.. Greelt

Alexander Il. Stephens on Mrs Hfeeley.
Stephens, In an article in the Atlanta
Sun. on the Cincinnati nominations,
says: =,
f'We trust they Cthe Democracy will
not for moment entertain the idea OF
choosing between Gen. Grant and Mr..
Greeley. Better suffer defeat than aid
in the election of either Of these oppOs-
ing Radical chaps.
7'It is true, Mr.. Greeley did most
magnanimous act in standing bail for
Mr.. Davis, but in this he acted part
no more magnanimous than General
Grant did when he notified Mr.. Stan
ton, or the authorities at Washington,
that he should resign his commission
in the army if General Lee should be
arrested in violation of the parole given
him and his gaIlantofficers on the mem
orable surrender at Appomatox Court
House."
The strongest objection the De
mocracy now have to General Grant IS
his execution to the letter of the meas
ures and policies advocated ana s'iS-
tanned by Mr.. Greeley"
The Scientific Press says: Inc reel
hitherto used to measure the speed Oh
ships is another time-hOnored 1nstltu-
ton that is passing away Inc fllySl-
meter is an instrument Winch pelma-
nently connects the water with an IN
dicator n the captains room, marking
