Why Genera Grant Was a Republican.

Boston Mass Sheciai-
A gentleman of this city has the following
lines in the handwriting of General l.. :. Graut.
written and signed by him in 1850. The reason
therein cited for being q Republican is as per-
tinent to-day as eight years ago:
There is not q precinct in this vast Nation where a
Democrat cannot cast his ballot and have il counted
as cast, no matter what the predominance Of the OF.
posite party. He can proclaim his political opinionsk
even IT one among thousands. without fear and with
out prescription on account of his opinions. There
are fourteen States. and localities in some Others.
where Republicans have not this privilege. This q
one reason why L am a Republican

Chaplain Lozirr at Gr.eu wood.

Special &c the Indianapolis Journs.
GREENWOOD, Oct. 15.-The mammoth tent
erected by the Republicans of this place has.
during the past week. done excellent service, but
never has it shown its convenience and comfort
more than this evening, for, Notwithstanding
the threatening weather and muddy streets and
roads. the crowd which greeted Chaplain Lozier
was large and enthusiastic. Mr.. Lozier, while
a resident of this State. had charge OF q
church in this county, at which time he formed
many friends and acquaintance in and around
town. Many came to hear an old friend and
see a familiar face, but more were attracted by
the name and fame Of the speaker. He fully
satisfied those who came to hear Z model cam
paign speech. On his arrival at the tent he
headed the elee club. who, in company. occupied
the platform. and opened the meeting with q
rousing song Of the Chaplain's own COM
position. His speech opened with
q discussion OF the tariff, which
question and most others he would settle as he
would q moral question which was unsettled. In
moral questions a safe rnle is to lind what the
devil wants you TO do. and then do the opposite.
In politics find what John Bull and the Johnnies
went You to do, and do the contrary. John
Bull encouraged John Calhoun In his null'hca-
ton policy; John Bull encouraged the Southern
Confederacy; John Ball encouraged Grover
Cleveland in his free-trsde policy. and lastly
tho Johnnies offer us the D per cent reduction Of
tariff which will reduce tariff on Northern pro-
ductions and leave the South whole. His tenn
peraEce argument WAS lone and convincing.
The frequent applause showed how well the
speech was received. Next Monday evening
Hon. W. II. ii. Miller aud ID. 5. Alexander, of
New York. will be here, ut which time an at
tempt will he made to have a meeting notable
IN the county's political history.
