From the New Albany (Ind.) Ledger
This is the tune the Radicals sing over
every Republican who has the manliness to
renounce Grantism, and declare for Horace
Greeley and honest government. "Glad to
get rid Of him-he was always an elephant
On our handsI" We yesterday heard Grant
man make this remark of Col. Morrison,
whose speech on Saturday night last proves
to be thorn in their side. OF course they
are glad TO get rid of every man that leaves
them. This is natural (?) They are glad,
more, they are delighted, TO get rid OF Carl
Schurz, Geo. w. Julian, Sumner, Trum-
bull, Fanten, Koerner, Crayens, and the
rest. The smile they affect at each departure
of the sort looks ike ths expiring glow OF
twice dilapidated and thrice reconstructed
glow worm. All of which reminds Us, as
Mr.. Lincoln would say, of an anecdote: a
number of ladies were gathered at a tea
party, and, as was natural, nHeo up
their odd moments in discussing their
neighbors. First, Mrs. Black came IN lor q
share Of animadversion, and next Mrs;
White. Finally, Mrs. Jones got up and
LELAND the Whole party turned upon her,
Kidding her character in regular Radical
style. After a time Mrs. Smith left and
they began on her, and so on. Presently q
poor w0Gian was observed in one corner OF
the room weeping piteously. "Why, what
ais Mrs. Johnson" asked one Of the party.
I yant-I want--'ant toto go-home
boohooed Mrs. johnson. "Well, why don't
70 go?" queried sypaLhetic. "Beesuse-
;ause-Tm a-a-afraid you'll all talk about
me after Pm gone," sObbed the poor wo'
man aloud.
Perhaps this is what keeps a good num-
Der from leaving the Radical tea-party-
they are afraid they'll be slandered-aftcr
they are gOnel Sal "

BACKING HIS OPINIONS.
Mr.. Murphy Can be Accommodated.

Mr.. Murphy Can be Accommodateo'
From the New York Spirit of the Tiriies.
A Herald reporter, who interviewed Gen.
Grant at Long Branch on Wednesday last,
was informed that ex-Collector Thomas
Murphy wished to bet gentleman at the
West End Hotel, in that VILLAGE, $4,000
that Grant will carry nine States, whose
united votes will be sufficient to elect him.
The reporter says that the gentleman de-
clined. This, however, is more than we
will do; for Mr.. Murphy can have his prop
osition met by calling at this Office. Ii,
however, Mr.. Murphy has dwindled IN con-
fidence since he made this offer, we will bet
him that he cannot name nine States
of any calibre, whether they shall
cast a majority of Presidential votes
or not, which will vote for Gen. Grant next
November. The editor Of this paper,
though be has already bet $4,000 that
Greeley will beat Grant, desires to have it
understood that he is not in any sporting
sense betting man. He never staked
dollar against public game in his life, he
never bet at horse race till he bought a
pool on Longfellow at Long Branch, and
he bets on politics only because it enables
him to back his own personal efforts and
political opinion. In this way, even, he
does not encourage this mode of contro-
versy, but at the same time is not apt to
shrink from it when deliberately pushed
upon him. This was the case even in the
bet recently made at Saratoga, that Gen.
Grant would not ges a single State. THAI
bet was made to restrain an inordinate dec
larat;on on the other side, and an odds wa;
required Of thirty-seVen TO one, that beins
| the number of States in the Union.
