de-ign to argue the point..
Until the b.le war, we of tlie Unit

uijiiu in reality it was only free in
name it was the only one in which
human slavery existed as an "insti

law. limgland, at trreat cost of mon
ey, emancipated the slaves of her
West Indian pc-jessions Fiance
estopped colonizing negroes into Alge
rialittle Holland repudiated slavery
in her poa-ts.-ions barbaric and des
potic Russia emancipated her i-erfs
and Turkey, over whose heathenish
form ot i&ligfen, we were r.nd are so
wont to grow eloquent in denounc
ing, ransomed every slave within her
borders. As an associate in our hell-i.-h
buine'-s we had but decayed and
despied Hpain, and before the war
some of our politicians, were conniving
to steal from Spain a portion of her
possessions, (Cuba,) which ould
have had the effect of setting tlie seal
of death upon slavery in that country
ami extending the area of human
bondage in this.

For well nigh a century we kept the

are free, and before man and the law
stand the peers of their hue masters,

We regret that definite intelligence
touching the result of the North Car
olina election, which came oil' last
week, has not yet been received. The
indications, however, are that the
Jtepubliean nominee for Governor is
elected. At the prior election the
Democrats carried the State by a ma
joiify of o,000. It is safe for Grant
and Wilson.
" Returns from Kentucky show Re

The signs are auspicious. The very
atmosphere is laden with the aroma
of the Victory In store for the Re

farmer will wake up on the morning

defeat,

citizens, bears us out in our predic

St. Joseph, Mo., Aug. 7.

"tors" shaving-'iiors" that Rich

ocrats in that county refuse to swal
low Belmont's prescription, and
many of them aie out for Grant.
How is it about that Democratic pa
per at Salem ? lias any body heard ?
The Georgia Constitutionalist, a De
mocratic paper, has picked out from
its exchange list 114 Democratic pa
pers that refuse to support Greeley,
and these papers represent the consti
tuency that must support Greeley u
nanimously, or there is no show for
his election.
liEUEIi AltCUIVSS.
Our government has purchased, at
an expense of $7.3,000 the rebel arch
ives. The purchase was made imme
diately following the Congressional
appropriation for the purpose in June
last, and through them the govern
ment has already, in the matter of
one claim saved Jlij.OuO.
These documents reveal an histori
cal fact which ought to cover Horace
Greeley as with a dask pall, so far as
his aspirations for the Presidency are
concerned at least with Union men.
They contain indisputable evidence
that while Grant was thundering at
the gates of Richmond, Sherman was
buried in tiie enemy's country, and
Sheridan was chasing Early in the
Shenandoah Valley, Greeley was op
erating as a marplot in company with
Saunders & Co., at Niagara. The ev
idence is conclusive that Saunders &
Co., were self-constituted Commis
sioners, not calculating on securing
peace, but through Greeley to awaken
in the minds of Northern people that
Lincoln was deaf to peace projects
and bent on a war of exteiminatioii.
They got Greeley to propose to the
Administration the policy of paying
the slave owner.-$400,000,0000 for their
si tves, and that "a wide spread con
viction that the Government and its
piominent supporters are not anxious
for peace, and do not improve proffer
ed opportunities to ac!ieve it, is do
ing great harm now, and unless re
moved to no ntr greater m me ap
pioaching elections."
Notwithstanding that Greeley long
since learned that he wa-a grossly and
purposely deceived by these Confed
erate Chieftains, some two 'Sabbaths
since he went to his church (Chapin's
Cniversalist) with St-tmders, and
gave to that traitor a seat in his pew.
Lincoln could not be deceived by
either Greeley or Saundeis & Co., and
he wrote to Greeley that Saunders it
Co., if they meant business must
come to Washington, show their cie
dentials, and make known their mis
sion. Not having credentials they
were prohibited from visiting the
Capital, as Greeley wished them to
do. there to operate as spies.
Was ever a man so gulled as Gree
ley ? Yet he is the man proposed for
tho Presidency.
sistency ?
Wlii.e the same press ffratcaised in
to the heavens the peace policy ol
Gen. Grant towauU the Indians.,
which brought as good, if nor better
lesuits. than the former belligerent
one, now they find no words hard
enough to condemn it. Every sensi
ble person knows that alwao nioieor
less murders and little robberies will
be committed by the Indians, until
the last one of these anomalies has
disappeared. Even-one, who i3 ac
quainted with the history of the last
.en years, knows that dimes commit
ted by Indians have decrtased consid
erably during- the last three years,
and that the former Indian wars,
for example, the massacre at New
Ulm, and for which we are indebted
for the massacre at Foit Fetterman,
have been stopped for tlie past three
years. Besides the present policy
toward the Indians has proved to be
cheaper, as well as more human, than
the policy of exte. mutation. Espe
cially comical, in that respect, shows
Greeky himself, whose Tribune was
formerly altogether - "Quakerish,"
now he wants to eat Tiffevery Indian,
and prefers I1L21 without oil or vine-
Ull .
In our neighborhood it looks quite
comical to see the liberal press at
tacks on Mr. Koerner, bcctiu.se he is
the fiercest opponent of the temper

pork, which for months has run the
gamut of 5-1 1. "0 tn .12.75, has sudden
ly risen to $11, ami other hog pro

erations in Chicago, which, always
attempting something big, iias gotten
up a corner in mess, and run up the
price to $1G. I have somewhere seen
a picture of the cow that kicked the
lamp, that lit the !ied. that burned
the city of Chicago A match pic

collected individuality of the pork

made largely in trade by that dwts

debtpd to that cow as are our provis

getting rid of stock at finely remu

will be cleaned out. "Tn the meantime,
what is to become of the Chicago ac

slackened, lea and coffee in less re

The charges that Horace Greeley
bargained with the Democrats for the
nomination of Presidential candidate,
ami that it was a "set-up job" long
before the Cincinnati Convention,
and that pensions for rebel soldiers
was a stipulation in tho contract, has
been sustained on tho sworn proof of
reliable men knowing to aU the facts.
Horace Greeley wao nominated at
Cincinnati b- Democratic manipula
tion. Hence the early backwardness
of Sehur. and Trnmbuil, and the
slowness of Sumner. The facJs are,
that there was never so much
political corruption exercised in any
convention held in the United
States as at Cincinnati. Charges of
corruption comes with exceeding ill
grace from that political wing.

The following letter from Senator
Wifsou is wortlij of a circulation in
Democratic journals much wider
than it i likely to receive. It is the
contradiction of one of the most ma

at one time Mr. Wilton spoke in
terms of unmeasured condemnation
respecting Irish and German citizens:

Certainly it i-. a singular aspect how
tlie dilTeient papers in Germany ac
cording to their party coloring, judge
the candidacy of Greeley and iJrowu.
It is not a mere accidental coinci
dence when the libera! progressive
German papers, like Viw'he, Xatiun
al Ziiuny and the Provincial, Corrta-
pondence, the latter being uuder the
direct influence of Uimarck, not on
ly declared, as soon as they received
tiie intelligence of the nomination of
Greeley and IJrown at Cincinnati,
thru the Germans of America wver
would suppoit such a ticket, but
more recently they even went farth
er and went stronger and against it.
The Vtissiche Ztitun say.-:
"We really cannot understand how
any German -American could be in
duced, through the sophistry of un
scrupulous demagogues, to plead for
the candidaoy of Horace Greeky.
Xo ! The Germans of America can
not and will not support him. Him,
the personification of inconsequences
and vulgar theories, of exploded ideas
on State economy. Alws.ys a weath
ercock and never consequent! We
thank the Lord that every mail from
America confirms the tact, that the
number of Germans who support him
is very small."
The Provincial Correspondence,
(Bismarck's paper,) says :
"We are sorry to see that certain
politicians and papers in the United
States are so un&crupuloiiEdy trying
to put the German voters in the lie
public against President Grant, on
aocountof the position he took dur
ing the late war with France. We
have said it since and we say it Again:
