The Rockland Free Press says: ALREADY
we hear it predicted that in the County of
Knox, some of the most influential and worthy
democrats will prefer TO give their votes fol
Grant, as every way preferable to Greeley.
We believe that instead of the Republican
party losing strength by this movement of
the democrats. it will add five or ten thousand
to its former majority and that the party
which basely surrenders principle for the
plumber which it hopes to obtain through the
aid of disgruntled republicans, will meet
deserved and crushing rebuke."

By the sagacity of his dispositions and the
favorable character of the results under Mr..

The New York Times says sin 1850, when
the tariff was simple, the Democratic party re-
CURED $685. to collect 500 of Customs duty.
In 1871, when the tariff was relatively very
complicated, the Republican Party collected
these duties at the rate of S311 for every
500. The Democrats now ask for control of
the Government on the ground that they can
manage it more cheaply."

POLITICAL.

1t is rumored that Governor b. Gratz
Brown has signiied his intention of doffing
his gubernatorial robes in order to enter the
campaign without embarrassing official i'm
pedment.
The Missouri Legislature has concluded to
either re-district the State or amend the pres
ent law so that four additional Presidential
electors will be elected. Gov. Brown has
sent in a message recommending an amend
ment Of the law so that additional electors be
chosen at large.
Tuesday was day of humiliation for the
bunker democracy of Maine. They swallowed
Greeley whole, but the effort was a tremen-
dous one. Fancy such oldtime leaders as

themselves hoarse for Greeley and Brown
Boston journal.
Noticing a prediction Of the New York
Tribune that Greeley would carry Ohio, the
Toledo Blade remarks "We consulted the
Greeley party in Toledo concerning this, and
his opinion is that it can be done if the cleo
ton can be postponed long enough He has
another man half converted"
Gen. Mosby, famed as dashing trooper
during the war, now accepts the situation,
and will in the coming contest support the
man to whom he surrendered. The General
visited the rooms of the National Republican
Committee at the Capitol Wednesday, and
declared his confidence in the success of the
Grant and Wilson ticket in Virginia.
The Mobile Register is getting little bored
by the noise made over Democratic indorse-
ments of Greeley 1t thinks it would he
good deal more to the point if the wires were
now and :hen to mention Republican con-
vention as doing something in that line.
The New Haven (Ct) Palladium is i'm.
pressed with the physical fact that there is no
telling where lightning may strike, by the
circumstance which caused a thunder bolt

to burst in the Woolsey fund of Yale College.
1t mentions two cases where wealthy men,
residents of the city of Hartford, who had,
in their wills, made handsome requests to the

to the bitter feeling engendered by the famous

MR. GREELEY TERROR TO THE BUSINESS
OF THE COUNTRY.

How the manufacturers and business men Of
Philadelphia regard even the remotest possibility
of Mr.. Greeley's election may be learned from
the letter OF the city correspondent of the
Germantown Telegraph, portion of which we
print elsewhere. 1t is well-known fact that
the year of Presidential election is always
characterized by extreme caution in business
Capitalists hesitate to proceed with extensive
undertakings, until they are certain what course
affairs likely to take, in the next four years.
Men who had intended building ships, or order
ing other important work, wait till the next yeai,
in order to be better ableto make definite calcu-
lations.
This, as we have said, is fact well understood
among business men. In the present campaign,
it is the case, to more than the usual degree. Mr.
Greeley policy as President, everybody believes
would be very different in many material re-
spects, from that of the present Administration.
But precisely how it would differ, nobody can
say and probably he could not tell, himself, since
be is one of those men whose actions are always
marked by sudden and unexpected changes. II
it could be made certain that he would pursue
positive, definite policy, however different from
that of President Grant, the business interests
could base their calculations upon it, and shape
operations, accordingly But to know only, that
he would be likely to act with eccentricty, is to
know nothing, and no man will risk his hard
earned money in enterprises which Mr.. Greeleys
suddenly formed notionsmigh strike down in an
hour

GOVERNOR CUnr1Ns MOVEMENTS.

Mlt seems to be certain, at least, that Ex-Gov
Curtin of Pennsylvania has been relieved from
his position as Minister to Russia, upon his own
request. This being sure, we may no doubt ex-
psct him home, as he would hardly desire to be
relieved, il he proposed remaining abroad
Ii he comes home, then, what course will he
take Many of his most earnest friends are
perfectly sure that he will advocate the interests
OF the Republican party, and faithfully support
Grant and Wilson. Hon. Henry D. Moore, OF
Philadelphia, now engaged in business in Russia,
writes home, quite positively, to- this effect. and
other gentlemen, resident in Pennsylvania, have
similar information
Colonel Mcclure, however, industriously
propagates the idea that Mr. Curtin will follow
his lead and go for Greeley. We should be sure
that this was mere campaign dodge, except for
one or two circumstances. In the first place, il
MIR. Curtin were the sincere friend of the Admin
istration, and opposed to change, it seems to us
that he would remain in st. Petersburg, satisfied
with the exciting certainty that the result would
be satisfactory. In the second place, Mcclure
is tempting him with the United States Senator.
ship. Probably Mcclure means to take this him
self, il he succeeds, by his bargains with Bucka-
lew, in securing a Legislature which he can
control, but it is most likely that for the present
at least he is holding out prospect of it to
Curtin. How much this alurement may affect
the latter can be better known after a while.
