GEN. GRANT TO BE IMPEACHED.

The papers throughout the country
are blowing on the President, and are
telling some horrible stories about the
quantity of whiskey he consumes and
the number of times he gets eight
every week. The Washington cores
pondent of the New York Sun says
that "it is now alleged that the miser-
BILE propensity which compelled the
resignation of Captain Grant from the
army in former times, has again OBJ
tanned such a mastery over his DISPOSE
ton that for about two-thirds of his
time he is under the influence of drink,
and that the public business suffers
lamentably on this account The
Montgomery Advertiser says 1t knows
nothing about the formidable move
ment to impeach the President as a
sort of representative national drunk
ard, but suggests that che is master.
He can get inebriated every day of the
week, and cgt up drunken antics with
Sheridan, as be has done, in the streets
of the villages of indiana, and be
brought away from Chicago by his
friends in order that his state of de-
bauchery might be concealed from
popular observation; but he can laugh
with scorn at all threats. He is mas
ter, and the people in their cowardice
are his subjects. Such is not only our
opinion, but it is the opinion of the in
telligent classes throughout Europe.
Besides Radicalism being in itself an
nfamy, its most trusted agents are
moral impostors, representing its own
degraded spirit. What do the numer-
nus treasury thieves care about Grants
Nothing whatever"

that the Dutch beat the Irish all hollow

DUBLIN, October &c, 1873.
The priests of the Deanery of Dunmore,
Archdiocese of Tuam, constitute the latest &C.
cession to the ranks of the Home Rule party.
These reverned gentlemen have declered very
emphatically their adhesion to the national
movement. They have gone so far as to say
that, provided q candidate for the representa-
ton of their county is known to be thoroughly
souud on the question of Home Rule, they will
not require him to pledge himself to any other
matter whatever-not even to the support OF
the denominational system of education those
generated and experienced guides of the poo
pie seeing quite plainly that if Ireland had
the management of her own affairs she would
not be one moment without endowing denom-
national institutions. All the priests of the
great Archdiocese of the West over which
DR.. MacHale presides have now gone in for the
national movement; and the two counties
Mayo and Galway-may, therefore, BIO counted
as certain to return two Home Rule represent
Stives at the general election. Those counties
already possess each one such representative;
and hero may mention that Mr.. Mitchell
Henry's second address to his Galway oonstitu-
ents on Home Rule, will be delivered in Tuam
tomorrow in presence of the Archbishop.
But the best evidence can give you of the ad-
vance the home RUE movement mas recently
made is the fact that even the Erening Post

sculptor, Mr.. j. II. Foley, to whom has been
Entrusted they work of executing the Grattan
statue, which is to be erected in College
Green, opposite the old Parliament House, has
announced that he will have finished his task
against May. The small model of the statue
has been for some time in Dublin, and has
been admired by everybody who has seen it, rs
splendid work of art. When completed, the
statue will be of bronze, will be nine feet high
and will be placed on a proportionately lofty
pedestal. To-day the committee that has the
matter in hands, met in the Mansion House
