satisfaction by The people. They have been
waiting for this moment TO giro on their ar
NOR preparatory 10 the great battle which is
10 be fought in November intending 10 make
il short, sharp and decisive The old Mary
land line thai never wayered when confronting

Liberties us secured BY the Constitution or their

Lord z said ~ perched on the pole of a
stage-eoaeh, "what dust ne raise So, no
doubt, thought Banton Duncan, who had un-
dertaken the guardianship Of lie Democratic
party himself Know Nothing and had fig
nred in the murder Of Irish citizens in Louis
vile in ls5i.-when he wheeled few old
gentlemen to has Convention at Louisville
what dust zee will raise. And SO il came to
pass-the Convention met nominated, and ad-
journed, some Of the delegates unable TO pay
their bills, and bad 10 call on him or go up
TO the post-oiiice or the custon-house and get
it, = the money! as one OF the delegates said
when the hoiel-keeper presented him his bill
j matters very little whether Mr. o. Conor ac-
cepts OF not, neither he nor ''this Duncan who
hath mot borne his honors so meekly,n can
control the party, and tie Grant managers have
found out that They expended a good deal Of
money very foolishly, About as bad an invest
lnent as that spent in the Con lerate archives
The Radical press are giving Gen. Grant a
great deal Of credit for paying oil the national
debt. There is nothing very smart in that
Anyone could do the same thing if the people
would furnish the money as they do to Gen.
GRAFT. Now suppose they tel the people how
much more Of the debt would have been paid
off if the money had not been wasted. Blanton
Duncan got credit for $50, o00-$75 900 for
the Confederate archives hopperning was
awarded S443 600 he didn't earn We are
only mentioning small matters, and say moth
ing Of the amounte expended in North Carolina
JuDGE BLACKS LETTER The letter Of this
distinguished gentleman and lifelong Demo-
GRAFT, has been more extensively published than
any letter written during this campaign We
presen: it to our readers in the hope that ifany
are yet wavering in the support they ought to
give Mr., Greeley all doubt will be removed by
perusal of this mastery letter. Surely, if
such men as judge BLAcK-a gentleman whose
Democracy is as consistent as his life is pure
can support Mr.. Greeley, other men need not
blush for their consistency.
We are really apprehensive the result Of the
elections in Vermont and Maine will Sc, the
Radicals stark mad. If they are rejoicing be-
cause they dida't lose more, Il is well. but ifit
be because they have carried these .sfast an
chored States, it looks like a waste Of ammu
milton. The Reform party laid no claim 10
them, all they hoped to do was 10 diminish the
majorites, and the RAIDS are glad il is no
worse. That's what's the matter.
TnE ELECTIONS in Vermont and Maine have
resulted in favor ofihe Radicals, as was ex-
pectcd, but in both States the heavy majorities
have been somewhat reduced, as compared
with former years. Il is no news 10 hear thai
