Already Qaarreling

The following from The Cincinnati
Commercial shows that our Rcpub-
lican brethren are not dwelling to-
Gethcr in harmony:
There has been a single infatuq-
ton in Chicago about The Convention
that had just closed its lahoTs. The
people have been to some extent
fooled by the press, and tie city peo-
pic, press and all are in false Posi-
ton.
The local influences were ovcresti-
mated. The assumption vas made
that Chicago could nominate Gresh-
am, and an extensive asaoltment Of
machinery was put in motion.
Gresham, the local candidate, was
a man of exceedingly good record as
soldier and Judge, and he was
pressed with endless energy; and 10
the man against whom Chicago was
especially bitter carries off the prize.
Upon this the Chicago Tribune
pitches into "the monopolists" and
accuses them-Jay Gould included
of conspiring against Gresham ana
defeating him, AID this paragraph,
which is as Infamous as anything SO
foolish can he appears:
"Cbaurcey n. Depew, !be railroad
attorney and official head of the great
Vanderbilt railroad syndicate, with
IFS three hundred millions Of capital
and its doctrine of the public be
ID With Dephew as helpers
were Tom Platt and Weed Pulp
Miller
Now, Gresham never had any show
OF being nominated, and those who
thought SO allowed their personal
partiality to make them selt-dece;v-
ers.
The abuse Of ChaUncev Depew
after bis chivalrous conduct at CHI
cago, which gave a vast scope OF in
crease to bis popularity, is bad
enough, but the vul gar assaults upon
the men who have united the Repub-
licans Of New York, are exceptionally
malicious. The Tribune seems TO be

Another one Of those uncalled for
accidents, occurred in the killing of
Miss Atkins, age 10 years, by her SIS
ter 16 years of age. A traveller had
left his pistol unloaded in the house
on the 4th, but on the morning Of the
9Th, no loaded it and went out to get
bis horse. The girls, as they had
done the day before, began their
innocent sport by swapping the pistol
which resulting in the instant killing
of the elder of the younger. Another
case of empty pistol.

into your possession. You are never to
