MORE GREELEY MENDACIEY

In the same spirit of mendacious effront-
cry which has characterized all the dely-
erances of the Tribune concerning the peo-
ple's reputation of the pretensions of its
candidate, that paper claims the Greeley
Buckalew party to have been cheated out
of Pennsylvania by-fraud. One can pardon
something to the natural desire Of badly
beaten man to assign in explanation of his
overthrow a reason which will hurt his
vanity as little as possible. But in this
instance the claim of the Tribune is piece
of impudent and inexcusable dishonesty.
The returns from every quarter of the
State show marked Republican gains. If
there was fraud, it must have been as uni
versa as the air, since the gains themselves
extend from one end of the State to the
other. But the Tribune does not believe
its own assertion, which is simply despe-
rate attempt to break, lift can, the terrible
force of the death blow which it knows
Greeleyism to have received on Tuesday.
The selEimportance of the Tribune is as
ridiculous as the egotism of Horace Gree
ley. The latter demands that all men
shall implicitly accept him and believe in
him as peace-maker, and screams like
fishwife at such as refuse to take him
at his own valuation; while the
former parades its false theories and
foul scandals as oracular truths to be
questioned by none but fools and scoun-
drels; whereas the plain fact, unpalatable
as it may be to the complacency of the
Tribune and Horace Greeley, is, that the
candidature Of the one for the Presidency
and the advocacy of Buckalew by the
other, helped largely to bring about the
overwhelming Republican victory which
has crushed Buckalewism and Greeleyism
together. The sooner the Tribune and Mr..
Greeley both understand that since their.
apostasy they do but weaken whatever
cause they support, the better for them
selves and for that Democracy which they
have brought into irretrieyable disaster.

AFTER Congress meets and an appro-
priation is allowed, suitable arrangements
will be made for tho distribution of the
new postal cards. They are made from
dies cut in hardened steel for surface print
ing. a novel and heretofore considered inn
possible mode of engraving. The lines
instead of being sunk are raised like those
of an ordinary wood cut. so that the plate
may be used in tic same manner as type
in any printing press. The completed card
is three inches by five and one-eighth
inches in size, made from fine quality of
card board, and is of light buff color. A
borter of scroll work runs around the
edge, while in the upper right hand corner
is very handsome stamp, consisting Of a
head Of liberty encircled with stars and
surrounded with elliptical scroll work.
The denomination is one cent, and the color
of the work rich velvet brown. The
inscription is simply United States postal
card-Write address only on this side, the
message on the other" Below are ruled
lines, while the reverse is blank.

SCRIBNER'S MONTHLY.

We have received from Messrs. Scribner
& Co.. through J. T. Ellyson, of this city,
the bound volumes (three and FOUR of
.Scribner's Monthly, made up OF the twelve
numbers of the past year.
These splendid volumes would adorn
any library and deserve to be in every
reading household. iScribacr has steadily
Improved under its present management
until it has achieved reputation second to
no American magazine. Its promise for
the future is cheering. Besides the cela-
brated writers who are pledged to contrib
ute during '72-73, the editorial control
and direction of the magazine will remain
in the hands of DR.. Holland,
who will continue to write "Ihe
Topics of the Time" His associate, Watson
Glider, will also continue to interest the

Draper will instruct them by his record Of

Science" The departments of " Home
and Society" and Culture and Progress "

a score of able and facle pens on both sides
of the Atlantic. In its essays it will de-
vote itself specially to the discussion Of
living questions, and in its poems, sketches,
stories, and grayer articles, it will endeayor
not only to catch and express the spirit Of
the time, but to lift and lead to those pure1
aims and nobler tastes which characterize a
higher Christian civilization. The subscrip-
ton price is only s4.0O year, and special

DURING the recent session of the e rit-
ish Scientific Association, curious paper
was read before the chronological Section.
It was an eloquent plea against missiona-
ries. The author said they rarely carried
savages as good faith as they had already.
He seems to have substantially agreed
with Herbert Spencer, that every race has
the religion that is best fitted for it, and
that too great change in that religion is a
blow to the race development. In his au-
dience were several of the Archbishops OF
Canterbury's heathen," who were evil
IDENTIFY glad to hear his bold statements. 1t
is noteworthy fact that the chronological
Section not only heard him with the deep
est attention, but applauded him vigorous
ly. His paper was more warmly greeted
than almost any other, and seems also to
have provoked less dissent.

HON. JOHN ID. BALDWIN.

In justice to the Hon. John Il. Baldwin,
whose remarks at the Old Market meeting
on Wednesday night, as reported in the
Wing of yesterday, we criticized some.
what sharply, we publish the following let
ter which we find in the same journal of
this morning:
My attention has been called to your report Of
what said at the Jefferson ward meeting last
night, and am informed that it is understood
as representing me to have advocated social pro-
scription for political opinion.
Please say for me that such was not my mean
ing or purpose, and that such is not my prac-
tice
My opinion of Radica'ism, and especially #
southern Radicalism, is bad enough, and have
not hesitated to express it upon all suitable oc-
casions, but have among the members of that
party personal ftiends, whose characters | re-
speet and whose good will l value, and have
no idea of introducing into our social life any
other tests than those of gentlemanly conduct and
personal integrity.
Respectfully, your obedient servant
JOHN d. BALDWIN.
Richmond, octo5er 10, 1872
We would say further that we were in
formed yesterday that Col. Baldwin
had remarked in the presence Of several
gentlemen, that his language, as reported
in the Vh,g, was substantially correct.
Whether he referred to the portion of his
speech criticized by us, or to the general
tenor of it, we do not not know. But as
he repudates the sentiments attributed to
him by our contemporary, we give him the
benefit of our columns for his disclaimer.
As to his "opinion of Radicalism," it
may be the double-dstilled quntescence OF
all that is hideous and repulslve in Ills own
mind. He has the same right to his opinion
OF oar Radicalism F" that We have of his
Democracy )" and can express it, at oil
times, with nothing more than legitimate
criticism on our part.

THE Indians Of the Sisseton agency have
set up claim to that section of country
lying between the Red river on the east,
and the James river on the west, and the
Cheyenne on the north to the line of Fort
Wadsworth on the south, all in Dakota
Territory. Through these lands the Nor
thern Pacific railroad runs, and large
section of their land grant is comprised
in them. The town of Fargo is included in
them, and on them there is probably about
5000 settlers. 1t seems that the Indian
title was never extinguished by any formal
treaty. Congress gave tho matter consid-
cradle attention last winter, and appointed
commission to investigate it. A confer
ence has been had with the Indians, and it
is understood that a proposition made by
the "original possessors will be recon-
mended to the government for acceptance.

WITH all the allegations of fraud in
Philadelphia at the late election, it turns
out that the vote on Tuesday was one Of
the smallest polled in the city for several
years, not reaching in the aggregate, no.
900, while in 1868 it reached l22, 900.
This shows that the hue and cry about the
Allen and O'Brien frauds were all gam
