A slip was handed us tho other night
with one of Mr. Lincoln's 6tories on it.
Brother Dovey made such a good speech
that we could not find it in our heart to
spoil its efiect by anything less appro
priate ; but now that election is over
the story is just as applicable.
Dill Reynolds had a fine old blooded
mare that had run Uiany a race and won
many a prize. At last they turned her
out to rest, and in course of time Bill
found that she was with foal.
Expecting nothing less than a "world
beater," a racer, Bill in due time
marched out to see the colt. One glance
sufficed. Instead of a short haired,!
clean limbed, fine grained "Abdallah,"
a runty, long eared frowsly haired, mule
colt appeared.
"A slouchy, long eared mule colt, by
Moses 1" shrieked Bill, in wrath, and
left ; while the old marc, after one square
look at her progeny, gave a snort of
disgust, threw up her heels in a vicious
kick at her disgrace and made for the
bush. She was never seen afterwards,
and the mule was left to shift for itself.
The Cincinnati Convention miht aptly
bo compared to the old tnare. Its pains
and labors were great, vhila the Bill
Reynolds, in the world of politics looked
rn with anxious expectation, 6ure that
nothine but cood blooded stock would
h nfTomd for such a race on euch a
track.
The eolt was born, aod as the tele
rrmnri flashed the name of Horace Gree
lv ticross the contiaeEt, the people
shouted ' slouchy mule colt, by Moses,
and tho convention (its tuother) after
nn irood look at its work left him to
wiggle for himself, and
out.

Card Jrcm Greelej,
- Horace Greeley prints a card saying
"The undersigned will resume the editor-
ship of the Tribune, which he rclin-1,1,:,
qui?hed on mbarkingin another line of
business six months ago. Henceforth it
shall be his endeavor to make this a
thoroughly independent journal treating
all parties and political movements with
judicial hurness and can lor, but courting
the lavor and deprecating the worth ot
no one. It he can nereaiter say any-
thing that will tend heartily to unite the
whole American people on the broad
platform of universal amnesty and im-
partial suffrage, he will gladly do so.
Pnr th rrpnnt. however, he can best
command that consumatioa by silence J
and forbearance. 1
T23 EESULT CP TES'ELSCKO:
Our unavoidable absence from town
yesterday prevented any comment being
made on the election returns. Suffice it
to say, that we have gained a great nad
gionous victory; that the thousands up
on thousands lolled up for Gen. Grant,
prove beyond even the shadow of the
suspicion of a doubt that he was the free,
glad, heartfelt choice of the people of
these United States. It proves that a
straight, clear, consistent record is worth
something to a man, and it settles for
ever the principle that there is no real
gain, a&d no use in this free and cnlight-
eued community, for any party to run
an expediency candidate with the sole
hopes of gaining votes . from the oppo
site party.
The N. Y. Tribune claims- that tho
Liberal defeat is owing to the corrupt use
of money, but that argument is so futile;
so utterly senseless, that Mr. Whitelaw
Reed will be the first man to deny that
7te ever sanctioned such a theory, six
months hence. You eannot buy the
whole people of the United States. No
party can. These majorities are so large,
so unanimous and so overwhelming that
all talk' about the votes of such a mass
of people being bought is idle, jdje va
poring.
The fact is that tho people distrusted
G reeley--wcre afraid of his vagaries;
hi3 queer financial theories, and also dis
trusted the power of the party that in
the main, backed him, or by the help of
whose votes alone, he could hope to be
elected.
That truth, staunch adherence to a
fixed policy, and equal -ights, have tri
umphed over connivance, vacilating-cou
victions, and a bold faced attempt to
override the well known sentiments ol
a large portion of the Union, is the les-
son of these elections. Our victory is
tremendous.
It is sublime. Let us be
thankful and bear no malice.
Greeley says he ingoing to return
to bis first love, the Tribune, and that
hereafter he will support J.he Adminis
tration and be a good boy.
That business meeting of the stock
holders a short time ago, probably had
something to do with this sensible determination.

tennial Commission hasreceived uo Gov-
ercment aid, such as England extended
to her World's Fair, and France to her
Universal Exposition, yet the labor and
responsibility imposed upon the Com
mission is as great as in either of those
undertakings. It is estimated that ten
millions of dollars will be required, and
this sum Congress has provided shall be
raised by stock subscription, and that
the people shall have the opportunity of
subscribing in proportion to the popula
tion of their respective States and Ter
ritories' The Commission looks to the un
failing patriotism of the people of
every section, to see that each con
tributes its share to the expenses, and
receives its share of the benefits of an
enterprise in which all are so deeply in
terested. " It would further earnestly
urge the formation ia each State' and
Territory of a Centennial organization,
which shall in time sec that county as
sociations are formed, so that when the
nations arc gathered together n JS7G
each Commonwealth can view with pride
the contributions she has made to the
National glory.
Confidently relying ou the seal and pa

every national undertaking, we pledge
and prophecy, that the Centennial Cele

Gen. Grant says, in subitaoce, that
he is glad the people of this country,
his country, have vindicated his charac
ter and tstified in the strongest possible
way the way a free country does ex
press its opinio--ti the fact that they
do not believe the calumnies circulated
against kim. And we soy that (Jen.
Grant stands to-day twenty per cent,
higher in the estimation of all honest,
sound ihinking men than he did at the
outset of this canvass. His patience,
his calm forbearance, under the vilest
abuse have won him hosts of friends,
It was oiwe said of a famous English
man, that, "he never said a foolish thing
and never did a wLe one." but we have
found a man who through a long and.
trying career ha not only never said a
foolish thing but has unmistakebly done
m-i-ny wise thing-, for the nation, for
himself and for his party, not the least
of which was to hold his tongue in the
ftce cf sueh great provocation.
It is said the washer-women of Chica
go are getting up a wring.
Dr. Renner, wbese judgment on po
litical matters, is usually good, is con
siderably put out, by the election re
turns; but he i(ands his defeat with re
markable good grace. In his last issue
of the Stuats Zeitung, he says :
"There is much comfort in the idea
that the defeat of yesterday is not the
first one in history. The list of the
vanquished is precisely as long as that of
the victors We have plenty of com
pany of which we need not be ashanied.
Were not Caesar, Napoleon, Frederick
ihe Great and many others defeated?
Such a thing can happen in the "regu
lated families" among the greatest men,
most heroic armies and to the purest
patriots. "Whom the Lord loveth he
