DESCRIBES HINsELF.-Over his own
signature, Horace Greeley wrote let
ter last summer to Gen. Frank Blair
and printed it in the Tribune. We
will leave It to our readers If he has
not described himself vigorously and
piquantly in the following passage:
"You would like to be the next
candidate of the rebels aud pro-rebels
for President; and !, for reasons
which nowise fiatter y0u, wish sue
cess to that aspiring go crafty your
desire for controversy. Nay more,
i assure your new friends that in spite
of past vacillations, they may trust
you SO long rs they shall take care not
to thwart your ambition. You never
thought of leaving the Republicans
till you sought the speakership at their
hands and were denied it.; and you
will be equally true to your present
until they in turn shall
refuse you Fsomething on which You
shall have set your heart General, 1
long ago learned that principals were
inconvenient, and that he who makes
his own aggrandizemen his aim must
wear them loosely or put them aside
altogether. l doubt that You would
ever attained your present dizzy ele-
walton had you permitted yourself to
be encountered with them. But am
oldfashioned and cannot change my
camp or my flag with your admired
facility"

The New York " Sun" has column
account of an interview of one of its
reporters with General Fitz Henry
Warren, the sOldier-statesman," who,
az the g Sun" tells MS, has occupied
his time since the collapse at Apo
mattox in beating his own sabre into
railroad iron, and succeeded in grid
ironing large portion OF Western
Vermont with the product" The
Sun" further assures its readers that
Warren is q " Western leader" though
not professional politician" (!)
The "Sun" further informs us that
Gen. Warren, though in favor Of uni
versal amnesty and universal suffrage,
has still been willing to yield to the
dictates of the Republican party, and
support its candidates and principles
This will be news to the Generals
friends here At home, where he has not
been known as Republican since he
swung off with Andy six years ago
and run for Congress on the Demo-
cratic ticket. According to the ASun"
the General told its reporter that soli-
tary and alone he started the Liberal
movement in Des Moines county
that it spread like wild-fire until he
secured delegation OF one hundred
and thirty to fs.c Cincinnati Conyen-
ton, that Iowa would 60 for Greeley,
and that he would sweep the North
western States, with the exception
perhaps, Of Michigan! We are really
thankful to the General that he has
left us one State even. It must be out
Of true benevolence that he does so,
for having carried Iowa for Greeley,
he could just as well give him every
State in the Union. The SUM- read
ers will doubtless regard General
Warren as great man. But here at
HONEYWELL, be is . pleasant gentle
man, and wewill not say anything to
injure his standing with the Suns"

uency,--BurJfnstos Hasoksys.

This is fast becoming byword
among the Grant boys. 1t ought to
be inscribed ON the banner OF every
form Of opposition to the Repub-
lican party. The Democratic poiiti-
cian is willing to acknswledge that
sdesing the ten years past he has been
. scoundrel,- ! scalawsg, or anything
else. and swear by his Maker that he
loves Greeley, always did love him, or
any other man, If through him he can
best Grant, who whipped his brethren
Of the South whom he don't love,
and never did love. Finally he will
promise anything, swear to anything,
do anything, If thereby Democracy
can place old Horace in the Presiden-
tial chair, and then he will crowd
around the old man and receive pay for
his aid. Next then is the Liberal, who
il such because he has become . cypher
in the Republican party, or because
not having risked his carcass within
range Of rebel bullets, complains that
soldiers have too much to do in run
ming the present administration, or
because he has spite against Grant
for some alleged private grievance or
finally, for some other reason akin to
those we have mentioned. These fellows
too want TO beat Grant and for this
purpose they will affiliate with Tam
many thieves, and lovingly embrace
the rebel Democracy. The cloak of
these men all wear, is
Reform. This is their syrcn song
to wheedle the innocent.

Colonel Forsyth, Of the Mobile Reg
ister, is still "pegging away" in the
name of the Southern Democracy,
against the nomination of Greeley. In
his issue of June 18th, he says:
"1'hc Register is unalterabbly against
Greeley, because as representative OF
the great idea symbolized BY the Gin
cinnati Convention, he is dead fail
ure, and If VIC follow him we follow
him to defeat and disgrace. Mr.. Gree

Grant opposition, and without nearly
all ofthese Grant win beat him. He
cannot carry the Democratic party

The New York Nation, which was
courted 90 afiectlonAtely by the Lib
erals" in the early stages of that dis
order, has the following Of the late
Fifth Avenue Conference:
(" Mr.. Schurz closed the proceedings
with an explanation of his own posi-
ION, which is this: That he, more
Than amy other man, was chagrined by
the result at Cincinnati that he does
not consider Mr.. Greeley q reformer,
and has no expectation Of any reforms
at his hands, and will say so on the
stump; that be believes him to be
surrounded by bad men; : that he, (Mr.
6churz,) however, is SO satisfied Of the
necessity of defeating Grant and dis
solving existing party organizations,
that he is ready to use any instrument
for this purpose, and will, therefore,
support Greeley in the modified and
guarded manner indicated above. He
looks forward, with Q hopefulnest
bordering on enthusiasnl, to the good
things which will grow out Of the
confusion following on Greeley's cleo
ton, and is deeply touched by the
Southern eagerness for Greeley"

seems probable that the Court will
consider seriatim the character of the
Confederate Cruisers accordingly as
they determine that character, they will
adjudge England responsible or not for

ships the character OF the ships be-
ing thus determined, the arbitiatiors
will next consider the award Of dam
ages, and on this point, will probably
confer freely with the council of
either side. should these views not
too widely differ as to amount Of i'm
demnity, the court may name n gross
amount between the two estimates.
If there should be no hope Of rec
Onciling the conflicting estimates the
court will refer the award Of damages
to assessors provided for by the Treaty,
and 80 conclude their labors. Now
that the arbitration goes on at Geneva,
il will likewise continue on the San

The Chicago Tribune is at last class
ga generally where it long since ought
to have been, viz: as an organ of the
democratic party, seasoned with dy-
spepsia and muleism. For four years
past this paper unblushingly published
to the world that it was ''the great re-
publican paper of the northwest"
when y Carried in every number ON
its brazen face indubitablc evidence Of
the falsity of its claim. Still it would
now fight under the cover of. the re-
publican name, and denies that it is a
democratic paper, when democrats all
over the country by scores discard the
Chicago Times to take It. It, with its
scattering followers, are like the man
on the jury who said Of his eleven fell
low jurors, because they would not
agree with him, that they were eleven
Of the most obstinate men he ever saw.
The Tribune thinks that over three
million republican voters have all gone
back on republicanism, and 1t alone
remains steadfast, because they cannot
all agree with him to go Greeley, and
throw Grant overheard. Give us a
bold open enemy, but sneak in SIGHT
we detest. The republicans of Illinois
gave expression as to where they
thought the Tribune to DO by tho. fol-
lowing resolution in State Convention :
Resolced, That the course Of the Chi
eago Tribune is such as to forfeit the
confidence and support Of the Republic
can party of Illinois, and we earnestly
recommend to county committees and
Republican clubs, and to those who
may desire to subscribe for Chicago
papers, the Inter Ocean, Std0ts-Z eit-
ing. Ece,ing Journal and Ecenimy
Post, as earnest, faithful advocates Of
true Republican principles.
