CAMPAIGN NOTES.

1t was thought, at last accounts,
that O'Conor would accept the
Louisville nomination.
Senator Davis, of West Virginia,
says the recent election in that
State was 4 Greeley triumph.
Indiana is ablaze with political
excitement. The reception of
Gen. Tom. Brown, republican can
didate for governor, on Tuesday
night, at indianapolis, was the
grandest demonstration of the
Campaign, consisting of a torch
light procession with numerous
bands of music and fine display
of fire works. After marching
through the streets, Gen. Brown
was escorted to the wigwam and
addressed an immense crowd.
Ex-senator Henderson is the
Republican nominee for governor
in Missouri, and the old Border
RufIian Silas Woodson is the
Democratic Liberal candidate.
Lyon, president of the Louis
Vile convention, pronounced it q
farce.
Col. Mcclure who is engineer
ing the Greeley cause in Pennsyl-
vania, is in a slough of despond.
He SAYS: "If Buckalew is beaten,
the game is up with Greeley"
"My idea of the canvass" added
the Greeley head centre, "has been
that the tide would rise about this
time, but it doesn't appear to COM
ing, and blast my eyes if 1 don't
begin to think it won't come"
A Washington special says: The
Liberals here have learned Of o
move among the Democrats direct
ed against Mr.. Hendricks of Indi-
ana, which is giving them much
anxiety. 1t appears that a num-
Der of Democratic managers in.va-
rious parts of the country, who
charge Mr.. Hendricks with be-
traying Mr.. Pendleton in 1868,
will have combined for the purpose
of defeating him now. These men
have agents in the State for the
purpose of using certain informa-
tign placed in their possession
among the Democrats who supper
ted Pendleton.
The Quitman (Ga. } Banner may
0clasp hands across the bloody
chasm," but it does not talk like
one willing to forget the past.
1t says: "The atrocities of the
northern soldiers are still too fresh
in our memory; the scars on our
hearts are not yet erased; the
names of Chickamauga and Allan
ia still suffuse the eyes with tears
and the heart with terrible thought
of vengeance" The Banner, of
course, supports Greeley, and
hopes to realize its thoughts of
vengeance" through that channel.
The notorious Yerger, the muir
derer of Colonel Crane, of Dayton
announces himself as a candidate
for congress in the third district
of Maryland. He is clasping
hands across the bloody chasm
with his. confederate friends. He
was recently entertained at Chap
paqua by Mr.. Greeley.
Francis Herman, the Greeley
democratic candidate for governor
of Nav sYorks was an anti-war
democrat, and denounced Presi-
dent Lincoln's proclamation call
ing for troops in April, 1861, after
Fort Sumner had been besieged
and taken by the rebels.
Sumner will not succeed any
better than Andy johnson in his
attempt to play the role of Moses
for the colored people. The diff
Guilty with Moses Sumner, as it
was with Moses johnson, is that
he wants to halt the colored peo-
pie on the wrong side of the river.
The Democratic and Liberal
Conventions of Missouri have
compromised and coalesced-the
Democrats taking all the impor-
tant Offices, and giving the Liber-
ais those in which there is but lit
tie honor or profit. The Democ-
racy eat the corn, and the poor,
hungry, God-forsaken Liberals
suck the cob.
At the Missouri state conven-
ton a resolution declaring that
universal suffrage demands univer-
sal education raised such violent
opposition that it was Withdrawn.
The Democratic Liberals speak of
the Republican candidate for Pres
ident as the cigar-stump, the bull
pup. and such pet names. And
what have they picked up for their
candidate? Why, the old pig iron
bail of the Confederate slop buck
et.-White Cloud Chief.
