-Forney's Chronicle comes out with a
screaming spread-eagle article in favor
of the third term nomination OF GEN.
Grant. 1t says:
"And what has produced the revolutions In
public sentiment which now SO prominently
brlng General Grant before the nation as a
candidate for re electionP We answer, the
imbecility OF the Republican leaders, which is
utter, overwhelming, and so marked in every
state that the most splendid political organi-
zation the country ever knew is to day almost
without leadership; lacking leader able to
comprehend its wants. anu with the nerve to
respond TO Its wishes other than the man who
now occupies the White House,
After berating the Republican party
for its lack of faithfulness to itself, the
Chronicle adds:
SIN such conjunction the people VIII really
love the Republican party, and prefer it to the
Democratic, naturally turn to Grant as the
oQly man who can rescue it from Its environ
ments, and whose denomination for third
term, in their minds, is as imperative as was
mis- first and second"
And so on for quantity. The third
term "baby" never was very healthy
child; and with Forney as its wet
nurse, it does not bid fair to long life nor
a healthy growth.

A city gentleman who had just pur-
chased farm in the country, wished to
buy some cattle with which TO stock it,.
He therefore attended an auction where
COWS were to be sold. One OF them, a
remarkably fine animal, soon. attracted
his attention, and he bought her at fair
price. lie was examining his purchase,
when farmer, who unfortunately had
arrived too late to buy the COW himself
as he had intended, drove up, and thus
accosted him:

cowrp

"Weli, did you know that she had no
front teeth in the upper jawp
"No," replied the gentleman, indig-
nantly. els that sow
"You can see Tor yourself"
The gentleman examined the mouth of
the COW, and finding no upper teeth. i'm.
mediately went to the auctioneer and
requested him to sell the COW again.
"Whaps the troubleT asked the auc.
tioneer.
"she hasn't any upper front teeth,"
was the reply.
"very weli,n replied the auctioneer,
with a smile, ''Pll put her up once
more"
He did SO, and the shrewd farmer who
had given the information to the cit,
gentlemen, bid her of at the same price.

The rejection OF Randall as the Demo-
cratic candidate Tor Speaker, is q lie
necessity for the Democratic party. In
case of his election the prospects of the
party would not be worth anything.
The wharf property of the city forms
sea ed book, the unclosing OF which would
lead to nignly in eresting and pointed
disclosures.
. [From the volksfreund.1
Among the most prominent candidates
for the position of Speaker is undoubt-
edly Milton Sayler, member OF the House
of Repre- sentaJiPes from the First Dis
trict of Ohio. His election would be
compliment, not only for the city and
State, but for the whole West, and we
feel confident that the citizens OF Hamil-
ton county will jugde it an especial
honor to assist MIR. Sayler in his candi-
dacy with their power. As we find
from reliable source, Sayler can depend
upon the votes of ali the delegates from
Ohio, and, among all the Candidates that
have been mentioned up to this time, is
the only one that can boast OF the unani-
nous support of his own delega-
tion. His prospects, therefore, are
good, and, according to thorough
politician, If he can hold the votes
OF his delegation during i've ballots, he
will be assuredly elected. The principal
| fight will be between Kerr and Randall.
Both are strong candidates, and have
assiduous friends. Should, therefore,
the supporters OF these men not be able
to agree upon one OF the two, then Say
ler would be fitting compromise can
didate, especially on the ground, that he
has taken a conservative position on the
finance question, and can be reckoned
neither among the hard-money men who
want to return 'pell-melp to hard money
payments, nor to the intlationists. Say
Ter, moreover, possesses qualities that
would eminently capacitate him for the
important and difficult position OF
Speaker.

scholars are always eager to know what their
