settled, and to controversies which
are closed.
The Liberal party turns from the
past to the future it seeks to heal
the wounds which years Of sectional
hate and angry conflict have inflicted
on the country it strives to release
the people from the CALLING fetters
Of party tyranny, and to combine in
one great movement all the opposi-
ton to the corrupt and despotic gov
ernment at Washington and to the
equally corrupt and -despotic faction
which represents the national admin
istration in this State.
Representing great popular
movement and great popular i'm
pulse, it yields to the diction Of no
cliques and is subservient to no indi-
vidual. It invites to its councils all
who sympathize with its effort to re-
deem the State and to cooperate in
the redemption of the nation. 1t is
essentially party Of principle and
toleration, and it's action will be in
Auenced solely by the intelligent
public opinion to which alone it con-
fdes. It appeals to the common
sense, the virtue and the judgement
Of the people; and to this appeal
the responses ore SO general and so
emphatic that it has no longer any
fears for the result.

Committee.

The Soldier and the Politician
All Is sold .

lne SOA01eF ana Clle HCl1t1ClaM
I have in days gone by spoken Of
Grants magni6cently fought battles
of Mission Ridge and Lookout
Mountain, Of his unrivaled tactical
skill and indomitable will as display
ed in the bloody Wilderness. I have
even, to the satisfaction of his most
Jealous friends, praised and extolled
him as a soldier, and I ever shall !;
but to-day I am speaking of his po-
litical, and not of his military,
achievements. I want to hold up
before your faces Grant the politi-
clan, and not Grant the soldier. I
ask you to look upon him now as
the leader Of ring Of politicians
who claim that the Republican par
ty is all justice, all honor, all mercy,
and above honest criticism, and that
they, with Grant, constitute the Re-
publican party, and not upon Cen
eral Grant, the successful leader of
our great Union armies. And when
I tell you that this government has
been plundered under the present
| administration as no nation WAS ever
plundered before since the days when
republican Rome was ruled by a
Caesar and robbed by Mark An
tony, I don't want you to answer,
Yes, tits true, but then Grant cap
tured Vicksburg." When the whole
country is clamoring for civil service
reform, and reform in government
and judging from the past we can
not have it under Grant-we will
not be silenced by the cry, Yes,
but Grant whipped Bragg at Mis-
sion Ridge" And when we show
that Grant and his admirers have
disgraced and humiliated us ma
tion abroad that he arrogates to
himself powers delegated alone to
Congress that the whole tendency
of his administration is toward CEN
tralization and finally, that he at
tempted to force through Congress
the outrageous proposition to place
in his hands the power to suspend
law in the time Of profound peace,
that he might place creature Of his
own at the ballot-box, backed by
federal bayonets at every town and
hamlet, to re-elect himself to the
high Office he has SO shamefully dis
graced, it will not do to say, 6 Yes,
but Grant received the sword of
Lee at Appomattox Courthouse. -
Gentlemen, the partisans of Grant
are powerless to refute the charges
of wholesale frauds, Of executive
maladministration, Of dishonesty and
corruption in highest places, Of the
crimes and misdemeanors of their
chief himself. He and his partisans
are trampling upon the rights of the
State and the liberty of the people ;
they are binding us over to militia
ry despotism, and their cry comes
back, What are you going to do
about it didn't Grant capture Lee
at Appomattox Courthouse ?" They
shut their ears to the indignant mur-
muring of an awakening people,
They close their eyes to the OMNIBUS
strides already made to Grants in
ordinate ambition and lust for pow
er, and, deralding abroad with peans
of ecstatic praise his most insignif-
cant achievements, they tremble at
his nod and bend in humble submis-
sion to his slightest wish. Gentle
men, let us rather he dogs and bay

Mr.. Greeley Notified OF His Nomination by
the National Democratic Convention
-.-liis Reply.


---liis Reply.
NEW York, July 12.-The commit
tee appointed by the Baltimore Con-
vcntion to announce to Horace Greeley
his nomination, assembled ut the Fifth
Avenue Hotel this Il. M, every menu
bcr present. Soon after II o'clock the
Club to meet Mr.. Greeley, who was
present with two or three friends, to
receive him. Senator Doolittle, adj
dressing Mr.. Greeley, said:
The National Democratic Copvcn-
ton had devolved upon the committee
now present the pleasing duty to wait
upon him in person, to notify him of
his unanimous nomination for the
presidency by that convention, official
notification ofwhich he now presented
to him. Published reports of the pro-
ceedings showed there was great una
nimity, but only those who took part in
them had any idea of the enthusiasm
with which it was determined to
sustain the Liberal Republican move
ment, and to support the principles
contained in the Cincinnati platform,
and they felt that the surest means of
same candidate.
He then introduced each member of
the committee to Mr.. Greedy, and after
II cordial greeting he replied to tho an
nounccmcnt. Mr.. Greeley said that
perhaps it needed more time and con-
sideration before replying fully to such
an important communication; it may
be he should have replied in writing,
but inasmuch us he had addressed Il
letter to the committee Of another con-
vention, which had been extensively
published, perhaps it was not necessary
that he should at this time make
formal and full reply; he accepted the
nomination., he said, and With more
pleasure from the gratifying spirit with
Which it was presented. His position
was proud one, and il was nevcrthc-
less an embarrassing one; but he trust
cd that his embarrassment was only
temporary. II subjected him to mis-
construction on tho part of valued and
lifelong friends, but he was assured that
time only was necessary to vindicatc tho
motives and disintcrcstcd and patriotic
course he had determined 10 pursue,
before he received such hearty cooper
alton. While you (said Mr.. Greeley
in making this nomination are not
less Democratic, but even more so,
than had you taken the opposite
cause, l, in accepting it, am as much u
Republican us ever was. Applause.
Iic was no! much accustomed, nc said,
to receive nominations for President, If
he had been he probably could have re-
spOndcd more iitly. This was all he had
to say, except to invite the members of
the committee, or rs many of them as
could make it convenient to visit him
at his farm ut Cl,appnuu,; he could as
sure them Ola warm welcome; he should
be there tomorrow, and then they could
consult and confer more freely ut that
time. The Committee thcn Withdrew,
ana Mr.. Greeley made II brief visit to
the National COMMITTEES of Liberal
Republicans.
