Says the Springfield (Mass,) Republican:
"There are alarming reports of the preva-
lenee of Greeleyism in the strong Republi-
can town of Easthampton, and a Greeley
Republican Club is soon to be formed. In
Northampton, too, another Republican
stronghold, the Greeley sentiment is becom-
ing daily more outspoken. The old party
leaders don't understand it. .eEHgH
The Troy (N. v Press, in reply to the
sta ement that there are only twenty-seVen
Greeley men in Rensselaer,, states that

already attained a membership OF one
hundred and fifty, and has fine prospects
ahead.
A gentleman at Eaton, Ohio, under date

ination of Greeley in all this region is re-
ceived with an enthusiasm that is beyond
expectation. There is gloom over the
countenancCs of the friends of the man at
Long Branch that is, indeed, sad to look at.
Several persons said to me that it was all
day with Grant, and that there was no use
use in fighting against Greeley, as he is GER
tain to be elected"

Grant"
The Cincinnati Enquirer of the 18th

ilton county are also members of the Gree
ly and Brown Liberal Executive Commit

think they would win if the Democracy
