would be promptly remedied. Why not also

those influences which many believed would

under the ancient regime, they are dying out

TUESDAY, MAY 81, 1872.

The Radical journals have no reason tor twlt-
ting the Democrats for going for Greeley, and
charging them with inconsistency. But a short
time ago their columns were constantly filled
with encomiums upon Greeley, and representa-
tons that he was the greatest philosopher and
the wisest man, and the purest patriot in the
whole country, Now, that he has been nomi-
mated for President, these same journals are
dcnouucing him in the bitterest terms. Where
is the consistency 10 this? The Democratic op'
ponents Of Gen. Grant, who are willing to vote
for Greeley for President, only say that they
prefer Greeley to Grant, and believe that If
Greeley is elected, he will go for Reform in the
administration Of the government, for a restora-
ton of peace and harmony, and will help to
bring about an overthrow of Radical misrule.
