The Alta California Grant fears that Mr.
Greeley has set out on the Obj tide and that he
will drift to sea, and, from the midst of the
ocean of political defeat, write another book,
emitting it, "What I Know About Deep
Waters The motto of such work might
be-
I'm on the sea-Tm on the sea-
am where would ever be,
With the blue above and the plough below;
am where would ever be-
I'm safe on my little farm at ChappAqua-we |
The Albany EUening Times (democratic) re-
fers to the fact that Grant was nominated on
the 9th of the present month, and 'yet there
yond the purchased tableau at Philadelphia,
been made in any part of the country" Per-
haps the people are preparing for grand
tableaur uiuants which will throw all other po-
litical tableaus in the shade.
The free trade ticket is regarded as side
show, with the pantomime cut off. Frederick
Law Olmsted is not inclined to be made a
Pantaloon of in the current campaign.
''They are coming, Father Horace, five hun
dred thousand strong if we are to judge by
the following, which we copy from the Elmira
IN. W Gazette Greeley democrat):-
After Greeley and Brown are endorsed by the
representatives of the national democratic party
and 1t becomes evident to all that they are to be
elected to the two highest Offices In the gift OF the
people OF this country there will be lively STAN.
pede of the republican rank and file, from Maine to
Texas and from the Atlantic to the Pacific to the
standard Of reform. Now they are breaking loose
one by one from old associations After the 9th Of
July they will come by hundreds and thousands.
The Albany Journal GRANT, says the liberal
reform party is ga party which is nothing save
a corrupt coalition for the spoils." Was there
ever q party coalition in this country or, per-
haps, in any other, but that was corrupt-a
bargain and sale of principle for plumber and
power? The old coalition party of Massa-
chusetts, concocted by Henry Wilson, Burlin-
game, Bird, Banks, Butler, Boutwell, and
others, was q coalition between free-soilers and
democrats for the purpose of obtaining power
and the possession of the federal Offices, the
abolition of slavery being made convenience
rather than necessity to carry out the pur-
poses of that coalition.
The Boston Post Greeley democrat) wishes
that the circle of listeners to Senator Wilson'S
recent speech in Faneuil Hall had been wider
It may be, adds the veteran of the Post, "that
the swoop Of Butler down upon the Faneuil
Hall meeting disconnected the Senator and
made him forget the only points he should
have made" Continues the POST
An open union Of liberal republicans with the
democrats In Missouri was the suggestion and
parent OF Cincinnati, and that promises to lead to
similar desirable revolution in the administration
at Washington. II Butler is permitted to rush in
and carry of many more such ratification meetings
1t Is not so certain that Senator Wilson will not be
ready for cooperation with the democrats himself.
Such questions as these are being pro-
pounded by the anti-Grant and Wilson
papers,
time had come when the uniform Of the S tate
militia should no longer be disgraced by being
seen on the back OF Catholic Irshman or an
infdel Dutchman ~
Here is an opportunity for the Natick
cobbler statesman to explain himself without
the danger of interference from Ben Butler
for Ben Butler, we believe, never encouraged
-Nothingism he always had one eye,
at least to the main chance.
According to report in the Boston Aduer-
tiser Grant democratic orator exclaimed in
recent democratic delegate meeting in Bos-
ton, eff we put third man in the field at
Baltimore we are, to speak plainly, damned"
The democracy of Massachusetts certainly
anticipate resurrection and quickening of
the flesh under the gospel according to
Greeley.
What is the matter with the Grant papers in
New England Here are two Of them-the
Boston Advertiser and the Providence Journal
Just at hand that do not sound o single
clarion note in favor of the 'Hero Of the
Apple tree of the Appomattox. The
Journal however, is slightly amusing in refer
ence to the Fifth Avenue Hotel bolt, which
reminds it, it says of Dean Swifts fieas =
SO naturalists observe, fea
Has smaller fieas that on 1t prey;
And these have other neas to bite 'em,
And so proceed al fnfn,tu1n.
The Journal cannot intend to say that the
slittle flea was the creation Of the Philadel-
phia Convention, and that other feas are
preying upon it. Alas how often it hap
pens that 1.-THE wicked flee when no man pur-
sueth."
The Baltimore American Grant states that
General Joe Johnston, Of Mississippi, is
against Greeley. 1t seems that he told Wigfall
chow fortunate he did not fall at Sumter y in
Baltimore the other day that he would have
nothing to do with him, and that to elect him
''would only be to continue the radicals in
power under another head" The American
adds: General Johnston is remarkable as
being the first man who gives Greeley credit
for being true to any principle he processes. :
The Washington Patriot (anti-Grant) has
discovered the philosophers stone 1t has
found out why Wendell Phillips sings his
palinode to Grant, and has no difficulty in
