Insulting the Gel mans.

SO long as our German citizens remained
true to Grant they were petted and maze
much of by the radical leaders, but the mo-
ment they dared to act independently and re-
pudiate the corruptions and usurpations OF
The present administration, they began to be
asssailed after the fashion of Grantism. In
their wrath at seeing the German vote desert
them by thousands all over the country, the
Grant organs begin TO abuse the representa-
tive German leaders, like SchurZ Gnd hoer-
ner. The former has received special atten-
ton at their hands. lie has been constant

Another letter was received from gentle
man in Madison, Wisconsin who at the pres
ent time holds a responsible position in the
State and Is recognized as competent Judge
of political affairs. He writes as follows
The Liberal movement is taking hold here
beyond our expectations and with proper or
ganization there is no doubt We can carry
this State for Greeley The German vote will
be almost solid. | think we shall receive
ninety per cent. of it. or the Irish vote we
shall be able to hold the regular Democratic
portion. OF the Norwegian vote, the n0ml-
nation of VI. Anderson as elector at large
will draw largely. as there is considerable
feeling among them fora change, think we
will be all to reduce this vote about ten pei
cent. Among the English. Scotch and welsh
there is n strong feeling for Greeley, especial
ly among the Scotch. Among the Americans
/ think it safe to calculate on twenty nine
per cent. of the Regular Republican vote
The Democrats are almost unit. what we
need is thorough organization. l desire to
have an organization in every Assembly dis
trict in the state, and for this purpose, some
active men should be sent to every county.

VooHEEs-In his recent speech at
Greenfield, Indiana, Dan VOORHEES, made
the following sensible remarks which VIC
commend to the careful consideration OF
"the straight outs: !"
have told you that have great re.
spsct for that class of Democrats who
found II necessary to reason themselves
into the support of Mr. Greeley. l be-
long to that class myself, aud have reach
ed my position by careful survey of the
field of duty, and not from impulse or
mere personal inclination. l have
weighed the calamitics which will accrue
to the country from Grants reelection
against the benefits to be procured by the
election Of Greeley, and have taken my
stand accordingly | have no word of
abuse to huri against the men engaged
in calling the Louisville convention, but
their purpose cannot be mistaken Ev
cry intelligent man in the United States
knows that it is n movement solely in
the interest of Grant and directly tend
ing to his re e-elcction. That convention
is the hope of the Grant party Mr.
Greeley is now the only choice we can
make to bring peace and reconciliation
to the country.

Mr.. EDTToR:-
A splendid meeting of the Reform party
was held in the vicinity of Natural Dam, YES.
terday. The people continued to arrive from
all quarters until II o'clock, when Wilcox go
up and asked their attention. He did not ad.
dress them in the hackneyed style of de.
claimer, but in the style of philosopher and
statesman. He analised the course OF
Grants Administration with consummats
ability, and demonstrated that the Grant
platform is a stronger bill of indictment
against him, than that drawn by Sumner
hlmself-in word, he showed that no man
ever had better chance to do good, and nc
man had so utterly failed. In fact, he showed
that

lie then took up his great competitor, Gree

TACT that "the drying up a single tear has
more of honest fame, than Shedding seas OF

Ihomasor spoke next on State affairs, and

that notwithstanding the Great Jehovah had

If the devil stood in the door. | would like
to enlarge on rs speech, lut time forbids.
Mr.. Northcutt spoke next. He confined
his remarks to County affairs, and showed
from irretragabe evidence, that the people
had been plundered, without shame and with
out remorse. particularly in reference to the
School fund. lie demonstrated that enough
of School tax had been collected to pay ten
teachers, tor eleven months, at fifty dollars
per month. These scoundrels haze assumed
Nh awful sponsibilty in cheating the chill
dren of the poor and the widow out their
schooling. Carson made a few remarks He.

officer.

Superintendent of Public Instruction is
of interest to many Of our readers

STATE OF ARKANSAS,
LITTLE Rock, Aug 16, 1871
Mr.. p. PUTNAM:
Dear Sir-Yours Of the Sth inst. has
| been received and considered. | sx-
ceedingly regret the state of affairs ex-
isting with respect to schools in the 9th
Judicial District. The case is novel
one, and as my duty in the premises is a
matter of construction, there may be dir.
ference of opinion as to what course shall
be pursued.
In my judgement, il Mr. Henderson
makes truthful representations as to the
course pursued by the Governor, he has
not been legally removed from the Office,
and is consequently still Superintendent,
and should be SO regarded. Entertain
ing this view of the case, have sent him
the statement Of the apportonment Of
the public fund to the several counties in
his circuit and presume he will make the
distribution to the several school dis
tricts.
There can be but one Superintendent
for the district, and as there are two
claimants, it devolves upon me to decide
which shall be recognized at this Office,
and Henderson having been properly ap
pointed and confirmed by the Senate, |
must be assured that he has been legally
removed before recognize any other.
Veiy respectfully,
THos. SMITH, Superintendent.
In another letter to the same individu.

tor, heretofore one of tho straightest o
the straightouts, comes out for Greeley
and Brown. AS form of confession
We cheerfully recommend it to others O
our brethren who are still on the wrong
side of the fence:
WE SURRENpER.-A man should never
be ashamed TO own that he has been il
the wrong, which is but saying, in other
words, that he is wiser to day than he
was yesterlay-Pope
Pope was man of sense He wrote
an " Essay on Man and the Universal
Prayer y besides having translated Ho
mer, But by far the noblest work of his
life was the above production. 1t suits
our case exactly, We had felt uncom.
Portable for several days. A sense OF
loneliness and isolation oppressed as.
We knew our principles were right, but
still our conscience was uneasy We
tried to be serene and dignificd, bat that
provoked 4 grim smile even from our
self, We then imagined we were martyr
to Democratic doctrine, but no visions
of glory filled our soul with ecstacy. We
tried while to play big Ike a" but that
didn't pay. We then got mad aid said
something about voting for Grant thro
spite, but that produced q fuss in the
family, and something was remarked
about man selling his postGity to
Grants kin this caused us to cal Grant
bad names, and to utter few things not
found in the Lord s prayer.
We then commenced thinking about
the hot weather, and remembered that
Prince Frederick and Princess Nellie
were in France, and Let us hav, Peace
at Long Branch Then we quickly pro-
nounced few other things that do not
appear in the shorter Catcchis n. Still
we felt poorly, and knew that something
was wrong We read Greeley's North
Carolina letter and began to improve.
But we had committed ourself against
the old white-ha cuss so often, we
felt ashamed to go back on our record.
A mans record is a dangerous thing. 1t
makes him do good many things " t
for grandeur. 1t takes a man Of pluck
to acknowledge his mistakes, even af,er
his judgment is convinced. He likes to
find some authority, some example, to
excusn or justify him lprocedeats, are

do something, but don't knoW dew to do
it. Pope-the great Pope--came to our
relief We shall vote for Greeley We
do not like to, but "there is no time foi
swapping horses now" We rather
thought SO the next day after sthe Balti
moro Convention, but there was cur rec
ord and records are strange things. VIZ
know now exactly what Job meant whcr
he said that observation about his enc
mics writing a book. We are done with
records; we know better. But we arc

Mississippi County.
On Thursday last personal encounter
took place at Osceola, Mississippi county, Ar
kansas, between Mr.. J. d. Murray. Sheriff OF
the county, and one c. B. Fitzpatrick, well
known Radical and firebrand Of that district
The difficulty originated from some charges
made by Fitzpatrick against Murray, In a
speech he made the night previous to n con-
vention of negroes, which were resented by
Murray, when he was shot aud mortally
wounded.
The Little Rock Journal, on this subject
says:
Mr.. j. b. Murray, Sheriff of Mississippi
county, an account OF whose shooting by the
notorious Judge Fitzpatrick Is related else
