not vote for Grant i'll the event OF his nonli-

for Grant, in view of the strong and deter

withdrawal: The anti-Grant men are bold
and determined, while the Grant men are
on on tie troubled waters. Tile Grant men, H.
by their behavior, confess the wrongs

A BIG REAPER MAN ON I.oGAN1sM.

:. SYCAMORE, ILL.,, May 2s.-At the Inaugural
ton OF the Chicago Grant "bUo1ls," in March,
the 'sgentleman from Jackson" "-then plain
Senator Logan-in lis speech OH that occa-
Ni.& In tfn&r I'll,
Grant and Julius Caesar, as also with the
Duke Of Wellington. We then supposed that
the Senator bad obtained a confused idea of
Caesar from Shakespeare, or some other poet,
propositions; but in the light Of recent events
we are led to believe that the gentleman had
really made study OF the times when ROme
lost her republicanisnl and became IMPERIAL
for, like i worthy Lieutenant of Caesar, sur
deprived ten Congressional districts Of their |
political independence, and, having reduced |
thein to the condition Of provinces, lie llas |
set over each political Governor III the per
son OF hls appointee, as member OF the State
Heretofore districts supposed they had the
right to choose allu appoint these officials rs
their representatives, but under the arrogant
assumptions OF this new sort of Republican,
District with its great Republican lnajoritics
cannot be trusted t0 manage its own affairs
through its own chosen representative, but,
as II f,t, It were = Roman or EgUption province,
over US. Will the Fourth and other districts
submit I'd, SUCH insolent deprivation of po-
litical rights?
His reference to Wellington was very ap-
proprlate tor the Duke, having been honored
lect, SGT his face as flint against I'LL efforts
to, relieve or help the soldiers through
whose blood and over whose bodies
e [ertune had so emDed en r,nt To- h,vn fame oo, and
wartled to the. fullest extent (and deseryedly
50 as soldrr), could sign the bill doubling
his salary, and turn his back upon measures
st1nking to the relief Of his comrades in arms.
