THE OREGON SENTINEL. Saidedat Mokxixg, July 0,1872. H. KELLY, Editor. NATIONAL REPUBLICAN TICKET- For President in 1872, ULYSSES S. GRANT. For Vice President, For Presidential Eltctors, AV. ID. HARE, of Washington County. A. B. MEACHAM, of Umatilla County. J. F. GAZEL.Y, of Douglas County. "I would sum up tho policy of the Administration to bo a thorough enforcement of every law ; a laithlul collection of every tax proided for; economy in the disbursement of the same; a prompt payment ol every debt of the nation; a reduction of taxes as rapidly as.the requirements of tho country will admit; reductions of taxation and tariff, to be so arranged as to afford the greatest relief to the greatest number; honest and fair dealings with all other people, to the end that war u ith all its blighting consequences, may bo avoided, but without surrendering any right or obligation due to us; a icforin in the treatment of Indians, and in the whole civil senico of the country; and finally in securing a pure, untramm elled ballot, where every man entitled to cast a ote may do so, just once, at each election, without fear of molesta tion, or prosecution on account of bis political faith, natiuty, or color." U. S. Grant. Silent Ken. Ono great objection that is raised against President Grant is his extreme reticence. That trait of characti-r when rightly viewed must be consid ered an'clement of strength rather than weakness. Refined modesty in creases with intellectual greatness The greatness of men is due to their sensitive nature. Tho moro keenly sensitive an individual the less will be bis self confidence and presumption; hence, he will never presume to press his views on the public. It is the presumptious and second rate minds that assume to be public speakers and teachers. Great men speak by deeds and ac tions, and are known by what they have accomplished, and not by what they have boasted of doing. "Washington never made a speech. In tho zenith of his fame ho once at tempted it, failed and gave it up con fused and abashed. In framing the Constitution of the United States, the labor was almost wholly perlorrmd in a Committee of the Whole, of which George Washington was daily tho Chairman, and ho made but two speeches during tho Convention, of a very few words each, something like one of Grant's speeches. The Conven tion, however, acknowledged the mas ster spirit, and historians affirm that had it not been for his personal popu larity and the thirty words of his fin.t ppeech, prnouncing it the best that could be united upon, the Constitution would havo been rejected by people. Thomas Jefferson never made a speech. He couldn't do it. Napoleon, wliose executive ability is almost without a parallel said that fiis greatest difficulty was in finding men qf deeds rather than words. When asked how ho main tained his influence over his superiors in ago and experianco when Commander-in-Chief of an army in Italy, he saidby reserve. Tho greatness of men is not measured by the length of their speeches and their number." t3T"Thercis nothing UJce leather.'" With U.S. Grant, tho tanncrj Henry Wilson, tho shoemaker, as tho leaders of the Republican party in this cam paign, wo shall tan tho raw hides of tho Democrats so beautifully, and wax tho Liberals so neatly, that when we have ionojegging away, there won't be. anything left of them. Greeley's quest for Presidential honors -will prove a bootless adrenture. The country feels that iu aul is at stake iu this"con test, and will stand by Grant to the last as the sole hope of iho country. St. Paul Fioneer. JLieut, Boutclle, of Ft. Klamath, is stopping in town. The New Postal Law- The new law just passed makes some interesting changes in existing postal regulations. The most im portant is the authorization of one cent postal cards for correspondence or printed circulars similar to those which were introduced in Great Brit ain nearly two years ago, and are now in use in nearly all European countries'. The House prowded in the bill for cards with a paper flap to cover and couceal the writing. The Senate changed this to an open card.- In conference committee the style of the card was left to the discretion of the Postmaster General, who ptefers the opeij card, and will order that kind only to be manufactured. The face of the card will bear a one-cent stamp, and will bo provided with lines for the address, and the back will be ruled for tho letter. The price of the card and stamp-will be only ono cent It will probably be three or four weeks beloru they will be ready for sale, as the plates for priming have yet to be prepared. The postage on circulars, newspapers, and other transient print ed matter, w'lieh, under the old law, was two cents for every four ounces or less, is now one cent for two ounces or less. Small circulars, which formerly cost two cents to mail, can uow be sent for one cent, an important reduc tion to business men who use the mails largely to advertise their business. The change is now iu force, the law being immediate in its effects; but the First As-istant Postmaster Gen claims the right to suspend the op eration of the' law until it can lie promulgated to postmasters through out the country. Chicago Post, June 12. Investigations. Relerring to an observation of oure respecting an investigation of the "Canal and Locks business" -by the Legislature at the approaching session, the Fanner says it wants the resolu tion so amended as to require ''an in vestigation of the means and method used to securo the railroad land grant 1868, and also the meat s and methods employed to secure the passage of the $300,000 subsidy bill iu 1870." Cer. tainly; if these investigations or any others are wanted by anybody, let us hac them. Tho Farmer declares that "the first le.-sons in bribery and jobbery" in this State "were taught by Ben llolladay in 1808." If that paper knows this, it is its duty to state par ticulars and furnishu proofs. Tho people want to know all about it. But mere general accusations iu a case of this sort will not suffice. Common slaiigwhanging will not do. If Ben Ilollowday or anybody else ever got anything through our Legislature by "bribery it concerns the public to know it. Who were the venal members and how much was paid them? The Falmer professes to know, but it doesn't tell. I-it prep ired to iiifoim a Cum mittee of the Legislature? There has been much loose talk on this subject; now cannot we get to the point, and hao the charges substantiated or dropped? What proofs the Fanner may have tic can't guess; but if it has any the public are entitled to them. But we apprehend that its information, as is such cases, is mere, hearsay, and not traceable to any responsible source. Yet we trust that paper will have an opportunity to tell what it knows to a Legislative Committee. We jiiin it in demand for investigation. And while the spirit of investigation is rife, it would probaly be as well to in quire into the statement made by Sen ator Fay and tho Jacksonville Times, to the effect that several members from Southern Oregon received money in largo sums for going into the Kelly caucus and pledging themselves to support him for United States Sen ator. Oregon ian. Judge Davis has published a letter withdrawing from the candidature for the Presidency. He says in substance that when he accepted he thought the Cincinnati Convention would nominate him, but as it didn't ho will dimis tho dream of the Presidency and. at tend to his judicial laborR. The Con vention which nominated him is recall ed, to meet again in July at New York City for consultation. The Mountaineer says: The family of Hon. J. G. Wilson, composed of his wife and three children left on Wed nesday morning for tho Atlantic States, via Portland, San Francisco and the Overland Railroad, on a visit to friends in Ohio. Important Agricultural Correspondence. jonx siirrn to h. g. Dear Sir: In reading an English novel yesterday I came across au ex pression which was quite new to me, but which yon can perhaps explain The author speaks of a "clever cob" as among the attractions of a country life. I have looked in vain through Walker's dictionary and your valua ble work on farming for a definition of the words. Can you tell me what a clever cob is? Yonrs respectfully, JOHN SMITH n. g. to sous smi'tii. Bear Sir: In reply to your queston I have to say that, although I have planted at Chappaqna every variety of corn that would grow (and several that would not), I am as yet unac quainted with any kind bearing clever cobs. I think it likely that the phrase you quote is a misprint for "clover cobs," in which case the hybrid may be produced by following my sugges tion of grafting clover tops on each ear of corn. Ii you wish , to try the plan on anything like a profitably scale, I would advise you to go West. Yours truly, A. G. Frank Leslie is -i nom da plume. The man who wears it used to be Hen ry Cjrter and had his name changed by the Legislature. MA1UUED. CLARK UAYDliX-At the residence ol J. 1J. While, UucK Point. July 1. 1872, by lie v. M. A.
