CAN'T SUPPORT GREELEI.

The leading democratic paper of the
Northwest declares that it will not sup
port Greeley. We refer TO the Chicago
Times In its leader of Wednesday
morning, assuming that Greeley would be
nominated, it announced that it cannot
and will not espouse his cause or labor for
his election. 1t says Greeley is now the
Of the Democratic party, as far
as he can be made such--a fact which it
regards as hard one, but which cannot
be ignored. It's also a fact that the choice
of the people mus, be either Greeley
or Grant. The question as to how Demo-
Gratis shall vote in this contingency, the
Times says, is one to be decided by the
individual voters themselves, inasmuch as
the Baltimore Convention has not placed
the Democrats under the slightest obliga-
tons to vote for Greeley, one OF the worst
of radicalism the country
has ever known.

FLAG RAISING At SKOWHEGAN-
ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING.
To the Editor of the Journal;

To the Editor Of the Joarnol;
Last evening the republicans Of >kow-
hogan, after a short notice, had general
meeting. and formsd a Grant club of over
one hundred, which will be increased to four
or FIVE hundred, and during the ringing of
bells and firing of guns, unfurled 10 the
breeze a magnificent flag, on which was in
scribed the names Of Grant and Wilson
Speeches were made by Hon. s. ID. Lindsey,
Hiram Knowlton, and VIM. Folsom, Esq
A large number OF ladies and gentlemen were
present at the raising and manifested great in
terest. All reports in regard to large number
of disaffected republicans in this vicinity are
without foundation in truth From present
appearances, the republican party will gain
from the democracy As many as they will lose
by disatfection and better material We can
afford the change. NIGlt>xT.

WHY LIABLE TO BE MISCON
STRCED?

In his recent speech accepting the nom
ination of the Baltimore Convention, Mr.
Greeley dwelt upon the fact that his posi-
ton is embarrassing, that he is subject
ed to the an noyance of "misconstruction
of his motives by lifelong friends"
This confession that he is in false pc.
sition is rather embarrassing to liberal
republicans. We understand them to hold
that their position is pleasant. easy to be
understood, straightforward and honest,
but Mr.. Greeley closes their mouths. We
are not surprised that he finds his situation
unpleasant. The arowal that it is 40 is a
confession of importance. 1t ia an ac-
acknowledgement that his course needs ex-
PLANTATION, and that even friendly eyes
cannot Justify it. We think he must have
been looking over the New York Tribune
of several years past before his speech,
which would have tendency to "embar-
rass" him as the democratic candidate for
President. We confess we have been en-
barrasscd, we know our neighbors have
been embarrassed, and we judge that the
embarrassment has been quite general
throughout America at the position
of Mr.. Greeley. In fact wherever
Mr.. Greeley and the Tribune are known
there is something so nnaccountable-so
difficult to reconcile with reason in his be-
ing the democratic candidate for president,
that it is monstrous source OF embar-
rassment to every one who desires to
think we'll of the human family, and cs-
pecially the Greeley family.

If Mr.. Greeley's unftness for the position

he promised to pay for it, his unfitnes is new

know of, by single responsible journal and
hardly by a single responsible man in the

every household and industry taxed to the
utmost. Is there anything in such COM
bination to entice any decent or prudent
man to support it ? Where is the repub-
lican who will abandon the glorious old
party, with its noble record of the past
twelve years, written in HEROIC blood, to
become the associate and tool OF the Tam
many thieves, the unrepentant rebels OF
the South, and the horde OF hungry office
seekers of the country? If Mr.. Greeley
were a saint such associations would drag
him down to perdition. If he were an
honest republican, he. would have spurn-
ed the nomination at Baltimore when
made to him by the democracy as the Sa
vior did the temptation of Satan.
True, Mr.. Greeley did good service in the
republican party; so Judas followed the
Master until he fell, and Arnold fought
bravely for his country until he turned
traitor; but the two last were abandoned
by those who had trusted them when they
proved false, and so will and should
Horace Greeley be forsaken in his aposta-
sy. There is vast difference between
Mr.. Greeley as republican and Mr.. Gree
ley as the democratic candidate for Presi-
dent. He says he has not changed, but
his new friends give him the lie direct,
for they say he has, and they are right for
once. He has gone over to the enemy to
destroy the republican party, to aid in
putting ii under the feet of the democratic
party, which by his own statements is
rocking with corruption and fit only to
rule in the lower regions

New Orleans,
WASHINGTON, April 3O.-There was half
hours cabinet session to-day. Nothing Of
Importance has transpired. Secre taries Of
the Treasury and Interior and the Attorney
General were absent.
1t may be regarded as certain that conse-
quential damages will not be claimed before
the Geneva arbitration.
Senator Kellogg and Representatives
Sheldon and Sypher have recommended the
Postmaster General to abolish the Red
river mail. The reason given is, that the
land service is safer and speedier than the
steamboat service. Senators West and
Flanagan, and Representatives MOrey,
Darrall, Conner and HerndOn, earnestly
protest against the discontinuance of the
Red river mail.
They claim that it is more expeditions,
and the interests of their constituents are
better served by the river mail, and advO-
cate increased mail facilities, instead Of di-
minishing them.
Senator West has repeatedly reported to
the Postmaster General complaints regard
ing the irregularities in Ficksburg mails,
but without effect.
