GREELEY ON -BAGGE2s.

On his return from a visit to the
South about a year ago, Mr.. Greeley,
not then anticipating his present posi-
ton. made a speech at the Lincoln
Club-room. in New York city. in
which he expressed himself as fol-
lows in regard to these disreputable
cormOrants:
Il alude to what are known as the
thieving carpet baggers. Applause. ]
The thieving caapet- -haggers are a
mournful fact; they do exist there,
and have seen them. They are fell
lows who crawled down South in the
track of our armies, general, at a
very safe distance in the rear; some
Of them on suffers wagons; some
bearing cotton permits; some OF
them looking sharply to see what
might turn mp, and they remain there.
They at once ingratiated themselves
with the blacks, simple. crCdulous,
ignorant men, very glad to welcome
and to follow any whites who profess
ed to be the champions of their
rights. Some of them got elected
Senators, others Representatives,
some Sheriffs, some judges, and so
on. And there they stand, right in
the public eve, stealing and plunder
ing. many of them with both arms
around negroes, and their hands in
Their rear pockets. seeing if they can
not pick a paltry dollar out of them;
and the public looks at them, does
not regard the honest Northern man.
who calls every carpet Dagger thief
deal. But these fellows-many of
them long faced and with eyes rolled
up-are greatly concerned for the
education of the blacks and for the
salvation of their souls. Great |
laughter. Let us pray they say;
but they spell pray with an e. and
thus spelled, they obey the Apos-
tolic Injunction to pray without
ceasing.' They got into the Leg
islatures; they went to issuing State
bonds; they pretended to use them
in aid of railroads and other improve
ments. But the improvements were
not made, and the bonds stuck in the
issuers' pockets. That is the pity
of it. What the Southern people see
OF US are these thieves, who represent
the North to their jaundiced vision,
and representing it they disgrace it.
They are the greatest obstacle to the
and permanent ascendency
of Republican principles at the South,

That is strongly and succinctly
put. No Democrat has ever stated
the case better, and no Democrat
could pursue a policy better adapted
to conciliate the country than that

Fighting Parsons In 0hio

Two clergymen, named Newbold and Gil
ray, had a fistieuff exhibition lately at Plvm-
outh, Ohio. The Advertiser of that place
says: The parties are both ministers in the
Methodist church, and for some time there
had been a bad feeling existing between
them, owing to some misunderstanding,
which has been exaggerated and kept alive
by the ever willing breath of scandal. On the
14th inst, the Rev. Newbold was in the drug
store of L. Dronberger & Son, when the Rev.
Gilray entered. 1t not being pleasant for
both to be in the same room at the same time,
Mr.. Newbold started to leave, but was called
back by Mr.. Gilray, who asked him New
bold) for So, which he claimed he had loaned
to him. Newbold claimed that it had been
paid one way and another, which Gilray pro-
nounced to be false. Newbold again started
for the door, and was again called back,
when, after few words, Mr.. Newbold told
Mr.. Gilray that he had circulated stories to
the effect that the lady with whom he New
bold1 was living was not his wife. This Mr..
Gilray denied, and upon Mr.. Newbold's re-
iterating the charge, he (Gilray) called him a
liar! The word was no sooner uttered than
the speaker received blow from the fist of
Mr.. Newbold, which cut his face, making a
basin of water and some plasters a matter of

A STRANGE STORY OF CRIME.-The Bos-
ton Advertiser says:
A singular case of depravity in a man of
good business standing, has recently come to
light. DR.. ]. Q. Dillingham;, the well-known
dentist of this city, has just confessed himself
guilty of numerous thefts charged against him
by absconding tor parts unknown, and a
strange story of his misdemeanors is now be-
fore the public. As far as is known, the first
of his peculations was from Messrs. Goldman
& Shurtleff on fremont street, from whom
he stole at various times some $1,000 worth
OF gold plate. Upon being accused of this
theft he acknowledged it, and gave his note
for six months for the value of the plate.
When this note became due he refused to pay
it, and threatened to sue Messrs. Goldman q
Shurtleff for compounding the felony. This
affair was kept quiet, and Dillingham's next
operation was to sell portion of his business
for $1,000 TO man named Wood. Fhe prop
erty thus conveyed proved not to have be-
longed to Dillingham;, the business was not
what he had represented it, and Wood sued
him to recover 1900. He managed to pro-
cure bail for $4,000, and was quiet for time
until his father died, about three months
since, and it was then found out that the
DIR. had forged checks and notes to the amount
OF $1,000. This was the last of his knaveries,
and the report is that he is on his way to
South America, though some insist that he
has not yet left the city. On two occasions
he has assigned his interest in his fathers es-
tate, making profit of 81 900 each time.

FRONTIER OF TExAs.-There is little less
than state of actual war, without the secur-
ity of its usages, being carried on between
the borders of Texas and Mexico daily; a
state of affairs which has continued for nearly
six years. The brigandage complained of is
carried on by Mexican horse and cattle thieves
under the patronage" of the Mexican Off
GERS of the army, and the civil officials of that
delectable government. The Mexican mar
kets are thus open for the sale of stolen prop
erty, and tax on the same is regularly col

GEN. GRANT PERsoNALLY-But your
correspondent begs to refer to the president
merely as typical head of his party, and not
the individual representative of any fraud, or
job, or corruption. He has always entertain
ed the belief of the presidents personal integ-
rity, and states furthermore that an investiga-
ton into his pecuniary affairs corroborates
his belief. He does this specifically to justify
his opinion, to do justice to political adver-
sary, and also to correct an erroneous impress
sion. The president has been and is possess
ed of this property, viz: One hundred thous-
and dollars donated to him by the merchants
of New York; a house in Philadelphia, S40,-
600, rented now at $2400 per year; $40 acres
of land near st Louis, purchased, with all i'm
provements, at less than $4,000; one-tourth
OF 120 acres of land situated near Chicago.
5000; $4,000 stock in Michigan iron COM
pany his Long Branch residence, $4,000,
and small amount in Adams express and
railroad shares. The bulk of this property
was obtained through the gifts made to him
by the New York merchants before he was
elected president, the real estate presented to
him in Philadelphia and Washington, and
his purchase of the st. Louis estate from his
brother-in-law. 1t is not improper to state
more specifically that the presidents income,
outside of his salary president, is about
$4,000 per wear. | make these statements be-
cause It has been charged by Mr.. Wendell
Phillips that Gen. Grant was worth S70O, 900
or SOC, 900, and because | am satisfied that
statement is untrue. Perhaps it should be
added to this that Gen. Grant is ANYTHING
but an extravagant man personally, and the
story is told. Louisville Courier Journal

JUSTIN MCCARTHY ON THE THANKsGIv-
ING PRoCEssIoN.-Justin Mccarthy, in a
letter from London says: An eminent Amer
lean, who was in London the other day and
saw the thanksgiving procession pass through
Fleet street, was, am told, delighted at the
wonderful order preserved in that vast crowd,
and frankly declared to those around him that
such thing would be impossible in New
York. As l have heard his testimony quoted
by several delighted Londoners, let me re-
mark that have seen several professions in
New York, and l saw the London thanksgiv-
ing procession from much the same point of
view as the American enthusiast, and nv
mind was filled all the time with reflection
of the very opposite kind. Order was kept in
Fleet street by mass of cavalry and infantry
and police, by troopers charges, driving back
the struggling and shrieking crowd by the
bayonets of soldiers presented at sitting men
and fainting women. / saw this sort of thing
over and over again under the windows where
sat. l saw the soldiers driving the people
with bayonets and sabres. saw our gallant
policeman, to whom all praise for his pluck.
wrench the bayonet from the musket of an in
furiated soldier and save some struggling
wretch from few inches of steel. l don't
say that the soldiers were to be blamed. I
myself heard the order given by an officer to
a cluster of cavalry to drive the crowd back.
although it seemed to me there was plenty of
room for any kind of procession to move
along. But why this sort of thing should fill
an American with enthusiasm and delight, /
certainly don't understand.

The defeat of the Burned Records Bill in the
Illinois Legislature is said to have been ac-

of the members:
"Mr. Speaker-I am opposed to this bill,
and l am coming down on it like June bug
on potato vine. have come to pronounce
its eulogy as Mark Antony did over Cleopa-
ira. am laboring man myself, and 1
know what laborers want, and know that
they don't want any such thing as this. I've
been in chancery, and | know how it is my
self. After hanging in chancery till the law
yers got my bottom dollar, | got my case be-
fore twelve honest farmers, and knocked
the socks off my antagonist just like falling
off a log. Now, here's King coming in here
with this bill to help out the legal fraternity
and put every man in Cook county into chan
cery. l amt nothing against my friend King,
but want to tell you right here that my
names Jack, and King cannot, never did,
and never will, take Jack. Look at this
section here, providing for masters in chan
cery-masters in chancery-yes, Wen have
them in Chicago thicker than fleas on dog,
to eas our substance and get fat ON our mis-
fortunes. l call upon the hard-fisted yeo-
manry OH the Democratic side of this House
to nip this thing in the bud-we don't want
-it, and we won't have it. We have got along
so far without it, and we can borrow all the
money we want, and sell all the property
we've got without going into chancery to do
it. Now, Mr.. Speaker, though Nero fiddled
when Rome was burned, and Lycurgus play
ed seven-up on his wife's coffin, that is no
reason our people should be gobbled up in a
chancery hopper after they have been burned
out, and ground out of what little they have
left"
