ABOUT PRESCRIPTION.

Mr.. Greeley insists that all other
questions must be kept in allegiance
until it is settled that ''al the reb,
el white men of this country shall
have equal rights with all the loyal
black men," He puts it in that
way because he insists that the
black men already have all the
rights of white men provided them
by the Republican party.
But how long would that be true
under a Greeley Administration!
How long before the contest ovel
the equal rights Of the black would
be renewed after the equal rights Of
the rebel white had been secured
A help to the answer is given in
the attempt of Greeley's supporters
in West Virginia to fasten on the
Constitution of that State a clause
which says that "any white citizen
entitled to vote, and no other, may
be elected or appointed to any Of
fice." No prescription about that
of course! Another clause prohibits
white and colored children attend.
ing the same school. Equal rights
their, of course.

The reduction of the public debt
during the month of August was
$l0,735,000. Steadily and honestly
the Grant Administration proceeds
in its policy of reducing the public
debt. Ten million seven hundred
and thirty-five thousand dollars of
bonds have been bought and can
celed since the 1st of August, thus
reducing the interest $643, 900, max
ing an aggregate reduction of the
national obligations, for single
month, $l1 1,57S,000. Thus the Re
publican Administration goes stead
lily forward carrying out the finan-
cial policy of the party-collecting
the taxes honestly and faithfully,
and appropriating the proceeds to
economical expenditures in support
of the Government, as directed by
the laws passed by a Republican
Congress and for the purchase of
Government bonds. The democrats
as reformers would soon change this
system if they should get the power
to do so. Greeley's schemes and
vagaries would soon be brought into
play with destructive effect. He has
more than once declared his hostil-
ity to "Boutwel's policy as he
calls it.

LIBERALISM IN MISSOURI,

Liberalism in Missouri has proved
a failure. All attempts there to Sc
cure Reform by coalition with the
Democracy have proved abortive.
1t was in Missouri that Liberalism
had its birth and Gratz Brown was
its first-born. He has been so poor
a Reformer that the Republicans
who stood as his godfather have
abandoned him with disgust and
-repudiated their action at the christ
.ening. They do not admire his
soft shell crab and cherry proclivi-
ties, and they condemn in unmeas-
ured terms his leniency to the Ku-
klux who have outraged many citi-
zens and driven them from the State,
while others have been murdered in
cold blood. They do not propose
to give him the chance of becoming
President as did Andrew johnson,
and they are back again in the good
old fold of the Republican party.
and working for Grant and Wilson.
Missouri has tried Greeley's Recon
ciliation plan for two years or more
and it doesn't work.

MR.. GREELEY As A POLITICIAN.

Eccentriclty and fickleness are
Mr.. Greeley's traits; as politician,
he has bolted and advised boiling;
he has opposed the nomination or
election of every President who has
been chosen for thirty years; he has
quarreled with ever Administration {;
lie has assailed the character of
those he differed with, wantonly and
savagely; he has imputed corrup-
tion to others merely for not voting
or thinking as he did; he sought by
intrigue the defeat of Mr.. Lincoln
after he was nominated the second
time, and as late as September 2,
1864, wrote secret letters, which
have since come to light, to concoct
measures to prevent Lincoln's cleo
ton; he strove to poison President
Grant against capable and honest
Republicans,and advised him to ex-
clude from his councils men trained
in public affairs; he has recon-
mended unfit men for Office, and in
sisted on their appointment; after
indorsing and applauding every
thing involving principle Or relating
to the public interest done by the
Administration, he has struck at
the President on account of "pat-
ronage," and bolted the party, after
man9uvring more than a year to
get its nomination.

GREELEY STICKS TO HIS LIBEL ON
THE Sol OIERS-

The veteran defenders of the
Union, the fathers, and sons of
those who fellin defense of the Union
and those who believe that the men
who fought for the Union have a
right to express their sentiments
as to who should administer the
Government of the Union, will take
notice that Greeley has not re-
tracted or modified one word of
his atrocious libel on the soldiers,
utterd at Pittsburg. His attention
has been over and over again called
to this matter and the falsehood or
the assertion insisted on, but he does
not retract or modify a single ex
preston. He stands convicted OF
wanton and malicious slander
against the men who fought, sufferd
and periled their lives that the Union
might be preserved.

WHAT DOES 1T MEAN?

A few days ago as we were ri
ding from Orrville to Wooster,
two democrats in an adjoining
seat were talking over political
affairs. One was Wayne county
man, and the other from Stark
county. Not knowing US, they
didn't seem to care particularly
whether we heard them or not.
The Wayne county man said
among other things that the
show for them in that county
this fall was very poor. That the
Treasury trouble was working
hard against them. Finally he
said that this defalcation bust
ness had just cut down the Cam
paign Fund about Iaoenty
Thousand Dollars. Now here
is mystery to us to know what
connection the defalcation in the
Treasury had with the democrat
ic Campaign money in that coun-
ty. Twenty Thousand dollars is
a good round sum to spend in
one county for election purposes.
If theGreelyites felt that it would
require that sum to carry the
county, where will they be
without its Talk about corrup-
ton, where will you find it rank
er then in the very bosom of the
party who are crying reform!
down with corruption? Is this
twenty thousand dollars to stop
the breach2 What does it mean!
