G2IELET AND GEAKT.
Thcra is a magnetic attraction
shout a man wlv has risen from ob
scurity to a iiosition of honor by his
own exertions, which every true
American is proud 10 acknowledge.
Thousands of men, in this country,
rie every year to wealth and social
position upon the crest of some un
expected wave of iortnno and either
sink again or float along the current
unnoticed. lint the man who by en
ergy and integrity overcomes every
obstacle and earns fame, always re
ceives the homage due those who win
such honorable attainments. Abra
ham Lincoln's reputation as a rail-
pplitter secured him a firmer hold up
on the hearts of the masses of the
northern people than did his achieve
ments, either in the law or in politics.
Andrew Jackson, Daniel Webster,
and many other men who have at
tained the highest distinction in the
annals of American history, owe their
.success to the fact that they were of
the iieoole. Thev had known toil
and grappled with poverty, and they
had vanquished both. Such men are
entitled to the sympathy and confi
dence of the laboring masses. They
know the wants of the people, and if
honest and capable they are the safest
men to trust with power. Men boru
in wealth and nursed in the lap of lux
nry aud ease may be Democrats in
theory and practice, but they have no
sympathy in commofl with the sons
of toil who constitute nine tenths of
the American people. Hut it is not
safe to regard a man worthy of con
fidence simply because he was born
poor ami lias risen suddenly to public
notice by some social or political
eruption. The sudden attainment of
weaith or power has not a tendency
to elevate the human character, but
rather to induce proHigacy and a de
sire for self-indulgences.
The difference between self-made
men and those thrown into notice by
some capricious freak of fortune is
clearly illustrated in the characters of
the two men now before the Ameri
can people as candidates for the Pres
idency. Both were born in compara
tive poverty, but by what diS'erent
w?ans did they attain emiuence.
Greeley rose by honest and unaided
toil along the paths of peace; Grant
was thrown to the surface by the re l
crested tide of civil war; Greeley
has been attended in his weary ascent
by the onward march of science, art,
literature arid civil aud religious frec-
rfom; Grant dashetl out upon the po-1
Jitical horizon accompanied by war,
discord, rapiiser famine and all tkeir .
attendant horrors; Greeley had in
scribed upon his banner the golden
sheaf.'and the oHve branch; Grant
flaunted the skull and cross-bones;
Greeley's life has been owe of temper
ance ami self-denial ; Grant's, one of
dissipation and self-indulgence; Gree
ley attained honor and distinction like
a Franklin; Grant rose to notorVety
like Iiis friend and associate. Jim
Fisk. Behold the comparison and
judge between the men. Which of
the twnin would be most likely to
shel honor upon tho name of Amor
ca by being elected to the chief mag
istracy of the nation ? To donbt the
answer which will be given at the ballot-bos
next Xovember would be to
brand the-people with recreancy to
the principles of their fathers, the tra
ditions of theii? mothers, and their du
ty to their God.-

Tiik Futccr Mistres.? of the ' has left in the public treasury a eoiv
White IIol.se: Miss Ida Greeley, siderabJe sum of money. In Xoveui
eldest daughter of mr next President, ber, 1 857, President Cornonfort, made
in-'view of the certainty- of beini! i hhn Secretary of State, fand subse-
-
al!ed upon to preside at the White
House; is now the feminine sensation
of tho day. She is nineteen years of
age, and all accounts agree that she is 1
a- worthy child f an illustrious father.
Being interviewed- by a correspond- i
ent recently r regarding her ideas of
politics generally,- and- Woman Suf
frage iu particular, sho- said she had
never thought much on the' Woman
Suffrage question; but i she was per
mitted to- vote she should certainly
vole for Greeley. Ida is a sensible
American girl and when she comes to
be the President's daughter, we'll bet
the soda she'll never make her coun
trymen blush by flirting through Eu-'j
epe, a la Nellie, the daughter of the
Gift Taker.
Stilt They Come. Hon. W!-L.
Adams, the oldest and ablest Repub--!
Jican editor m Oregon, declares
inteution to support Greeley and
Brown. Mr. Adams was for a num
ber of years editor and publisher of
. the Ar'jm at Oregon City. He wasf
appointed Collector of Customs, at
Astoria, by President Lincoln, at tho
request of Col. E. D. Baker. lie is a
profound thinker, aud one of tho
ablest speakers in the State. He
knows the corruption which is seated
v lh places by Grant, and it he
slumps the State we would advise
waul s iaew.eys to 'taud from under.
POSPgTIYE PRICE OP WIlPAT.
Fanners arc now fairly at work
saving their yrahiv Throntrhout the
Willamette- Valley and in Southern j
i Oregon there wilt he a good average !
In i
Kasteru Oregon, and Washington
Territory the yield is not so heavy
per acre as last year, but more ground
was sown last Spring than any previ
ous ycur, and thut portion of the coun
try will consequently have as largo or
larger a surplus than heretofore. It
is therefore safe to estimate the num
ber ol bushels which will be thrown
upon the market after harvest at a
higher figure than tho surplus of last
year. Perhaps it is not Jar out of the
way to-say that one-third more grain
will be shipped from Oregon this year
tlum in 1871. Well posted farmers
make this estimate, and some think
the excess bo even greater.
In regard to prices, data now avail
able justifies the prediction that wheat
will advance beforo tho season is ovef
to 80 cents., and perhaps to a dollar.
Xo valid reason has been given, in
any of the market reports wo Lave
seen, why it should not. I-rfttcst Eu
ropean dates quote prices as high as
last year, when buyers were ottering
a dollar and upwards in this market.
In our Eastern cities there is nothing
to indicate a depression in the wheat
market. Throught the western and
middle States which supply tlx? east
ern market, there has been but an
average yield, so that there can be no
depression in consequence of an in-1
crease of the surplus over last year, j
France is reported to have raised a j
small surplus over what its people j
will consuine, which is better than she j
done last year, and this is the only j
country on tho globe named in any of j
the market reports, where the crop of ;
tno present year exceeds that .t last.
It is said by some, that a want ol
touage to export gram irom uregon j

reasonable to supp5ie, however, that j

up, and that shortly. As the lack of
tonage is the onlv reason given for
the present dull stale of the wheat
market, there is no cause for uneasi
ness among the farmers in regard to
prices remaining seriously low. The
cause given for the present depression
in the market, is one which will speed
ily pass away, and we predict that
farmers who hold on to ihtrir grain
for a short time will fiud there is '
"luck iu leisure."
DEATH CP A NOTED HAN.
The name of Benito Juarez. Presi-!
dent of the Mexican Republic, whose
death was announced iu last week's
dispatches, l:s long been familiar
to American readers. ' He was born j
in 1807 at a Tillage near Jatlau (at
present- known a Villa Juarez), in
the State of Ojaca. lie is descended
from the pure aWgmai stock, and
t t . II !
was born in humbVe circustances. He
prepared himself for the profession of
the lnv in which he gained distiction.
Devoted to liberal ideas, he took an
active part in politics as a member of
the Legislature of his native State.
lie successfully went through the
ehole range of the judicial organiza
tion of his State from tho position
of Justice of Peace to that of presiding
Judge. In 1840 he was elected Dep
uty to the Constitutional Congress- in
the City of Mexico. During the pe
riod of peace he devoted himself to
the opening of roads, the increase of
primary and higher schools, and the
reform of the financial administration;
and on retiring from the government
j j - , .
j iqitently ho was appo.'ited President
of the Supreme Court i Justice.
t'ndeir Cornonfort, the liUnal policy
which- Juarez advocated wjTS urged
forwar-d, provoking the hostii.'ty of
the Church party to an extreme, and
laying, the foundation of those civil
feuds which led to the invasion of the
French and usurpation of3Iaximili.it.'.
Juf rer became President in 1858, by
the resignation of Comonfort, under a
. . . '
provision of the .Mexican Constitu
tion, which, in case ot vacancy, makes
the Chief J ustice ex officio President."'
His history since then, the part he
took in the overthrow of Maximilian,
and the bold: measures by which he
retained his place as Chief Maistrate
are familiar to- every , newsp aper
reader.
His death' is mourned by fhV best
class of his countrymen, who , regards
ed him as the prosonification of theiK

ECCLESIASTICAL WHITEWASH.
Mr. Cramer is President Grant'
brother in law. lie holds tho posi
tion of Minister to Denmark, by Pres
idential appointment. Cramer is de

Uramers capacity or incapacity as a

"Snollegrier'' in that lino. Doubtless
he is, and. if so, is it not a pity for him j
to "wast; his sweetness on tho desert
air" vainly endeavoring to play the
roll of diplomat, for which neither
nature nor education fitted him?
Would 'id not have been more becom
ing, had tho Cincinnati Conference,
after endorsing the orthodoxy of Rro.
Cramer, assigned him a circuit out
West where ho could exercise his
ministerial talent to some purpose ?
When a conclave of Christian minis
ters descend to the low calling of
smearing ecclesiastical white-wash
over such a man as Cramer, just to
tickle a venal President, they cease to
deserve, respect and should be held up
to public scorn.
On, Mosr..s: The following extract
is from the pen of Mrs. A. J. Duui
way :
"It is well known in Vancouver
that Grant, while here, was afliicted
with the worst stages of delerium,
tremens. And further, a man named
Lovelace, who was in his employ,
used regularly in the evenings to take
him to the worst type- of Indian
y& . carriage ami gr inter urn
, . . . .......
next morning, ius pronigacy while
heto was common talk
among the
boys on the street."
" General lngalls, now luarter-
mastcr General, was one of General
Grant's "Vancouver chums. He hail
madatto and half-breed children there;
but while he gathered them up and
ed noted them, and has lately taken
them' home, tjenerat (.mint leaves his
aborginal offspring to hunt and dig
camas." ' !
Mrs. Duniway is now a. zealous
supporter of Grant. Really there is
no accounting for tastes.
Poor Soi.-ls. It is truly affecting
to witness the amount of feeling man
ifested by the Oretonian and 'other
Grant organs over " the" l&st glory
and traditions of the Dioeratic
party." Poor, weeping." Jerjniahg
