1t Is the special claim of those who advo-
cate the Liberal Republican cause that il is,
par erceiiencc, the party of reform. But
the sturdy yeomanry OF the North, who
carry their principles into their politics
and demand of Office holders the strictest
fidelity in the discharge of their duties, are
not in the habit of looking to such men as
Senators Fenton and Doolittle, the Blairs, the
Tammany leaders, and the leaders fthe re-
bellon, for political guidance or as cham
pions of reform. Granted that few ofGree-
ley's original supporters are honest men,
and are moved by an earnest desire to puri-
fly the dirty pool of politics and effect a gen
uine reconciliation with those who partic-
pated in the late rebellion what guarantee
has the party to offer for the futilment of
its promises? Is it found in the character
aud wisdom of their chosen leader. Horace
Greeley was VIGOROUSLY unsafe in his
championship of the rights of the southern
slaves and unsound in his war policy, and
has ever been extreme in his advocacy of
protective tariff. Is it in the character of
those who have organized and directed
this movement? They have no common
powers that be, and no bond of union
but that of desire for power Is it in the
noble patriotism of the masses who arc
docking TO the Greeley standard, eager
only for reconciliation and reform? For
bid 1t, shades of Andersonvile and Fort
Pillow! Forbid it, Tammany When

Smith. VIM. Lloyd Garrison, George Will
liam Curtis and Henry Ward Beecher,
such pure minded statesman as Henry
Wilson, Schuyler Colfax and Senator Nor
rill, so ardent a reformer as Wendell Phil

Charles Sumner, fail TO identify them
selves with this new party Of "reform,"

"DB.fD ISSUES" rs. LIFE Facts

a little more than a year ago Horace
Greeley thus wrote of the Democratic party?
at Is rebel at the core to-day, hardly able
to reconcile the defeats of Lee, Johnston,
Bragg, Hood and Price, and the consequent
downfall of its beloved Confederacy, with
its traditional faith in Divine Providence.
1t would hail the election of a Democratic
President in 1872 as a virtual reversal of
the AppomattoX surrender. 1t would come
into power with the hate, the chagrn, the
wrath, the modification of ten bitter years
to impel and guide its steps. 1t would de-
vote itself to taking off or reducing tax
after tax until the Treasury was deprived
of the means of paying interest on the ma
tional debt, and would hail the tdings of
national bankruptcy with unalloyed glad
ness and unconcealed exultation. What
ever chastisement may be deserved for our
national sins, we must hope that this dis
grace and humiliation will be spared u.s."
Where is the change that has occurred
since the above was written ? Has the
Democratic party "thrown up the SPONGE
or abandoned its principles? Not that we
ever heard of. On the contrary, the New
York World asserts that "The only thing
that can reconcile Democrats to Mr.. Gree
ley's candidacy is the moral and political
control the party would have over him as
its regular candidate, and the obligation he
would thereby incur to treat the party with
Difference and consideration in conducting
the government" That is the way the case
stands, exactly. The Boston Journal hits
the nail squarely on the head when it says
Those Republicans disposed to regard
the campaign as merely a choice between
Grant and Greeley, the Democracy having
surrendered their principles, deceive them
selves. There has been no repentance. The
passive policy does not contemplate sur
render-only an allegiance of its creed until
once more in power. Elect Greeley, and
men who, at the North, opposed the wal
for the Union and voted it failure, and
the men at the South who starved our sold
iers at Libby, Belle Isle and Andersonville
Elect Greeley, and the genuine Union men
North and South, will have to take "bacb
seats.' "Merely choice between GRAM
and Greeley" forsooth Why, the real is.
sues involved are as wide as the poles
Greeley means reaction Grant, progress
| The one means the continued ascendency
of the men who saved the Union when in
mortal peril the other means the placing
in power of the men who did all they could
to break it into fragments

Among the many good things which

AS at present everything is remarkably
quiet here, except matters political, a few
words about these may not he wholly un-
acceptable If not entirely pleasing to the
publishers of the PHOENIX. The Grant
party has opened the canvass here by Civ
ing its banner to the breeze. 1t, however,
excites less enthusiasm than it would
were tho prospect of the success of that
party in this State, and the country as a
whole, more encouraging. In this town the
friends of the present national administra-
ton doubtless still have quite a majority,
but there are quite a number of Republic
cans here who are earnestly for Greeley
and Brown. Tho Democrats here, also,
with but very few if any exceptions, will
adopt this ticket. There are, beside, quite
number of Republicans who, before the
election, will heartily support it. These

We hope no one of our readers is so bitter
in his political opinions or preiert noes as to
refuse TO listen to what may be said on the
side of the party to which he is opposed.
1t such an individual there be among our
subscribers, he will do well to stop his pa
per at once. 1t is our purpose, so far rs
space will permit, TO present the ablest
views and strongest arguments which Ell
ther party may bring forward in the COM
ing contest, and that without invidious
comment or for the purpose, primarily, of
making party capital. We assume that
our readers are neither fools nor bigots,
but that they desire to know what IS to be
known in reference as well to political as
to all other matters, that viewing subject
upon all sides they may form their own
judgments independently in reference
thereto. Our columns are therefore open
to all for the discussion of political ques-
tons, and in our paper to-day will be found
articles, both original and selected, favor
ing some the Grant, and some the Greeley
side of the present contest. As nei-
ther party can claim a monopoly of virtue,
so neither can claim the whole argument;
and lie who thinks all men knaves who
disagree with him, had best consult mir
ror to find the length of his own ears.

We have, until recently, confidently
hoped and expected that Judge Poland
would be returned to Congress from this
District without opposition, and by COM
mon consent of the Republicans but IL Is
now und ,rstood that a contest more or less
sharp will be had for the nomination.
Judge Steele of Hartland, Windsor coun-
ty, and his friends, are now actively in the
field against Judge Poland. We deeply
regret this, for however readily we may
concede Judge Steele's qualifications for
the Office he seeks, we regard a change at
this time as unwise and prejudical to the
highest interests of the country. For ma
ny years past this Congressional District
has been singularly fortunate in the char
acter and ability of the men representing
it. The people held Mr.. Morrill, in the
House of Representatives, in spite of all
opposition, for six successive terms, end
ing in 1866 with his election TO the U. S.
Senate. Judge Poland fortunately became
his successor in the House, and has now
served three temrs with distinguished abil-
ity. 1t is well known that Judge Poland
ranks with the ablest and most influential
members of the House. As a jurist his adj
vice is sought by committees having in
charge questions of statute or constitutions
al law involved in national legislation.
From his long and ripe experience as a
Judge and legislator, we think he is need
ed in the House of Representatives, and
we know the people of this county fully
agree in this opinion. Without any disre-
spect TO the qualifications orambitions ofany
other man, the Republican freemen of the
county of Windtam want no change al
this limo, and judging from advices from
all parts of the county, we can say they are
a unit against it, but will use all due effort,
TO return Judge Poland to his old seat II
the House of Representatives.

The Binghampton Republican of Friday
evening publishes Il portion of its promis-
cd revelations of Greeley's correspondence
with active Democrats of New York, be-
gun last year, and looking to his nomina-
ton for the Presidency by the Democratic
party. If true, it shows a complete in
trigue or the part of Mr. Greeley to obtain
the Democratic nomination. He was aided
in the alleged transaction by Gov. Fenton,
Waldo Hutchins, and others of the corrupt
ring of Republicans who run him. A Mr..
Carmichael of Otsego county, and Horatio
Seymour seem 10 have been the principal
Democratic managers of the movement.
Part of the programme was that Mr.. Gree
lev in the event of his election, should IA
vor the giving of pensions TO disabled reb-
el soldiers. We sincerely hope that these
charges will prove false.
