UAmPAIGN NOTES.

CAMPAIGN NOsES.
The Grant men are paying dollar head
in some counties of New York for signers
to calls for Gront meerings, and hard work
to get them at that.
Greeley and Brown clubs have been Or
ganized in every ward of Kingston, Ulster
county, New York. Many of the principal
officers are Republicans.
The Trenton Gazette, Republican author
ity, says that 'the Greeley men in New
Jersey outnumber the pOtato-bugs, and po-
tato-bugs are thick"
Out of eigbty-four Republicans who
\ sIgned the call for Grant meeting at Mad
B ison, Wisconsin, only forty-four were office
holders.
A report having been circulated that
Judge Thomas George, of Newburg, life
long Democrat, had declared for Grant, the
Judge has written letter denying it. He
is for Greeley.
Hon. Charles Reemelin, Of Cincinnati,
says over his own signature, that the st ate
ment that he has announced his intention
to vote for Grant is not true.
The Milwaukee Ne1cs says: "The Gree
ley electoral ticket recommended by the
Joint Democratic and Liberal Republican
State Central Committees of this State, is
enthusiastically adopted and affirmed by
the Democratic Republican papers of
Wisconsin without exception"
On the 9Th inst, John d. Bush, a promi-
nent Democrat of Dubuque, Iowa, made a
bet with D E. Lyon, prominent Repub-
lican, of thousand dollars, that Grants
majolity in Iowa will be less than 10000,
and another thousand that it will be less
than 5000. The money was deposited.
a letter from Decatur, ILL.,, says: ga
Greeley and Koerner club Of over 400
members was formed in this city tonight.
Among the members of the CLUB are some
Of the most active and foremost men of the
Rep blican party of 1868. Four-ffths of
the German vote of this city are now out
spoken Greeley and Koerrer men,
The Tyler (Texas) Reporter accepts
Greeley and Brown rather reluct sntly, but
as a duty devolving on every Democrat.
We believe every Democratic paper in the
State has now fallen into line, and the Gal
weston Ecccs predicts that Texas will give
Greeley and Brown larger majority than
any other Southern State, according to pop
Ulation.
Several Federal ofice-holders having re-
signed their commissions in order to work
for Greeley and Brown, one daring inno-
vator in United States revenue office in
Brooklyn has determined to say and fight
it out. lie does not think that his personal
political preferences have augh5 to do with
his tenure Of office. Let US see what the
Administration will think about it.
The st. Louis Republican says: 1t is
announced authOritatively that the Hon.
Henry T. Blow will, under no circum-
stances, consent to be a candidate tor Gov.
ernuT, and that the same is true Of the II N
John Il. Henderson and the Hon. Z o
Stanard. 1t would be difficult to conceive q
more conclusive refutation Of the elaborate
estimates Of an Administration majority il
Missouri than this.
gentleman writing from Jonesville
Michigan, says: "The papers in this Stat,
are largely bought up by the Chandler ring
and we get in them little else than slang
misrepresentation, and abuse. You cal
Cook for a good report from Michigan il
November next. expect We shall carr
the STATE by small majority for Creole
and Brown; at all events, it is now classe
among The doubtful States by good mau
leading Grant men, and we mean to carr
it if honest work will DO t."
Judge Lomuel d. Evans, of the Texa
Supreme Court, was nominated by the Re
putlicans as one Of the two candidates 70
Corgress-at-Large, but he is suspected {
