CAMPAIGN NOTES.

ventioners to III. G:
I'VE know not we ask not, just what's in thy
heart;
We know we can use thee whatever thou art -
Judge Ould, keeper of the Libby
prison during the war, declares
Greeley to be a aft bearer of the
Confederate flag to victory"
Gen. Banks who has repeatedly
been threatened with being "shel
we'd" by the republicans of Massa-
chusetts, has concluded to "let the
Union slide" and vote for Horace
Greeley.
The democracy having sunk
their principles out of sight in this
campaign, are making the canvass
wholly without honor and ignoring
truth. They have sold out to the
devil, for the possession of the land.
The Brooklyn New York Dem
ocrat, always a true party paper, re-
fuses to support Greeley and Brown
and declares "between the two Re
publicans" it will have no "hesitan
cy in supporting Grant"
When the Democracy supposed
North Caralina to have elected the
Democratic ticket, it was Greeley
deluge. Now that the State has
gone Republican it is not even a
Grant drizzle. Curious,
The Republicans of North Caro-
lima elected their State ticket entire
and three out of eight Congressman
at their late election. The Greeley
men said 'as went N. G. so would
g6-the Union this fall" A true re-
mark. .r... ......
Greeley shows how much of a Re
publican he is by advising Liberals
to vote the Democratic State Ticket
and for Democratic Congressman
everywhere. "Out of the abund-
ance of the heart the mouth speak
eth"
How that once good word reform
begins to stink in the nostrils of the
public! 1t is used by the basest of
political tricksters to carry out the
yilest political bargain and sale of
the Nineteenth century-the Gree
ley and Seymour agreement.
"This is the beginning of the
ground-swell which is to sweep the
country next November" chorused
the Democratic press, a few days
ago, with reference to the North
Carolina election. So it is. How
do you like the prospect?
A friend of the Christian Register
writes to clergyman that he has
got so far in politics as to hurrah
for Or, but doesn't know whether
to end with antor eeley. The Cler-
gyman replies by referring him to
Proverbs vi. 6: $50 to the ANT,
thou sluggard,''
The Springfield Republican calls
for the substitution of some other
name for that of Gratz Brown on
the Greeley ticket, because of what
occurred at New Haven during his
recent visit to that city, and says
that his habits were injuring the
Liberal ticket.
An effort was made in st. Louis
the other day to get the Union and
ex Confederate soldiers to shake
hands across the "bloody chasm,"
but it proved a failure, the "boys in
grey" refusing to have anything to
do with the ''boys in blue" Recon
ciliation is not popular with the
rebels so long as there remains a
hope of electihg Greeley.
Charles O'Conor is spoken of and
is said to have been determined on
as the candidate of the straight out
Democrats for President. If this
nomination is made at Louisville
September Sd, there will be such a
stampede of Democrats from the
Greeley ticket that Horace won't
know he is a candidate by election
day! a#...a... ..... ..
Every State that has held cleo
tions this year-whether Republican
or Democratic-has either gone
Republican or shown substantial Re
publican gains. Witness New
Hampshire, Rhode Island, Oregon
and North Carolina, with handsome
local gains in Kentucky and Ten
nessee. Wanted to know, when the
Greeley revolution is to take place.
The Tribune has not attempted
to deny the charges of the Bing-
hampton Republican. To that there
is knowledge of Mr.. Greeley's
lntrigues for the democratic NOM
ination for Presidency in other. To-
calities, we take the follwing flom
the Cincinnati Gazette of last week
SIN January, 1872, a gentleman
who is as close to Mr.. Greeley as
one man can get to another informed
gentleman, who communicated
the information to us, that negotia-
tions aoere then an progress to make
Greeley the Democratic candidate
for president. This fact We stand
ready to prove whenever it shall be
authoitatiVely denied.
Mrs. MATTHEWS, the mother of
Vice President Colfax, died at her
residence in South Bend, Indiana,
Saturday. She had long been a
