81L1I, WSD2IKSD1T ilM A lUHBOW KM WJW. The Wtsco Democrats are beavy on how dodges. They have, for several yean Invented one expedient or anotb- er hv which they have sot away with the elections. This year It Is a slde election, run excJuslvely by private . parties, and with i surprising nnanlmlty lor tho betnocfatk ticket. . riombeVof petsons got blether In 'one OftheicilalUnl precincts, ten miles : tfyrwb the appointed place of voting nelthei-ottfjeJudjres of election belngf 'preseaU They opened polls receh?t;d1 About lorty-flve Democratic votes ana made a return of the same to the'Bem- 'ocratlc County Clerk. Meanftine, Die r eguUrly'appolnted Judges' bletectlon, "opened the polls at U8 appointed place and held the election in accordance with law. The predoct, of course, 'returned two sets'of poll books. The Democratic clerk, In pursuance of the toian which !-bad unquestionably beep jareed'upbo, rejected the regular poll .botiks 'arid "counted the return made by the vonductors of me side-show, . Tbetponbooks returned by the regular Judges election, gave Moody about fifteen majority. The books counted by the clerk Including the above invented one gave Monroe, the Democratic can dldate, fourteen majority. By this expedient, Wasco, Republican, is made Democratic, and the will of the people legitimately expressed, has again been over-ridden by the Democratic, trick sters of Wasco. as Eszarr to the state. A more disreputable organ than the Portland Herald has become since the election, was never seen anywhere. In Its spite toward Ben Holladay, it is attacking the credit of the most im portant enterprises of the State; try ing to break down Oregon Railroad securities and to discourage invest ments of capital In our midst. It does this to bust" Ben Holladay, for assist ing to defeat the Democracy. But it Is not doing him any harm, nor can it do him any. It may succeed, how ever, In doing injury to the State ; for the State Is vitally interested in main taining the credit of the enterprises on which its progress depends. The Herald might as well advise the ship pers of Europe that they need not come here for grain, because there Is none ; or emigrants to star away be cause there is nothing here for them ; it might as well advise the outside world that the country is worthless and that it has no possible capacity for development, as to continue in the strain of depreciation and misrepre sentation, In which It has been indulg ing for the last few days. Its effort tends directly toward preventing any development of the country. The Herald is simply an unprincipled sheet which puts party before all other con siderations. COMFORT FOR TBEHBLIXe MOl'U. Doubtless many good people have been led by Democratic declamation to fear that sundry schemes injurious to the State and in tho interest of Ben Holladay will be proposed and proba bly passed at the coming session of the Legislative. It has been asserted over and over again that a Republican ma jority in that body would meet simply . to record Holiday's will. This was electioneering clap-trap, furnished by litigant editors and their liege lord, Gov. Grover. It auy have been mis led by it they have only to wait in pa tience to have their minds disabused. In the first place no legislation can be enacted which would be of any service whatever to Mr. Holladay or his rail roads. Not a single measure can be proposed or devised which would ben efit him or them in the slightest de gree. And we here put on record and ask readers to mark the sequel, that no measure In the Interest of Holladay or his railroads, will pass the legisla ture. Mr. Holladay has nothing to ask ot that body. And in the second place the Republican majority in the Legislature' is composed of men who represent the Interests of the btate. I 'Better Imeterlal'was, never sent to a Legislature. These men will act with a view to promoting the progress and prosperity ot the State, and from con vlctloDSof duty to their constituents and themselves. They cannot be " run " In any special Interest. But while they propose no legislation for ' the benefit of Mr. Holladay, (who asks nothing of tho kind) we hazard nothing in saying that they will not allow the great interests and enterprises which - he represents to he harassed and fet- ' tered by narrow and unfriendly legis lation. They will take no stock in the Democratic onslaught upon the most important industrial and commercial enterprises of the State. Liberal pol ler, regulated bv justice aud b v a re- rgardforthe States highest Interests, is the motto of the Republican party ; and a Republican Legislature will pur sue that policy as the one demanded by an enlightened public judgment. That judgment can have no sympathy with the narrow, prescriptive, parti san, spiteful and: rancorous course of the Democracy, as reflected by their chief 01 gan, the Portland Herald. The course ot that paper and of those who encourage it, resembles a schoolboy's spite and malignity. HOW IT HIKTH. The philanthropist will be really pained to observe with what grief our Democratic brethren take their defeat . We find the litigant organ of Salem saying: .. -- - - - Hundreds of low-born, dlrt-eatlng servile creatures having done the bid ding of their masters iu California, and assisted to overthrow our party tnere. were shipped like so many peons or coolie to this State to vote for the Re publlcau ticket. ;- Tbey had no more interest In the welfare of the State than have the natives of the South Sea Islands. They voted tor a price, and hundreds, If not thousands of these mis erable derils, with upraised bands add ed neriurv to their many (his the damning crime of perjury." - Ot but It hurts ; the prospect ot stoppage ot swamp land stealings, liti gant pickings and Democratic schemes ot plunder in general. "JTo wonder Gov. Grover and the editors of all his organs are now clad in raiment of gun ny cloth and sitting in the ashes or sorrow.- Tbey will never forgive those who have put a stop to their game of " stand and deliver." The Mountain Sentinel (La Grand) has a suspicion that Old John Brown'. soul has been "marching on," ii Union ; oonnty. However that may be, It Is evident that there's nothing tha'inatter with Banna, up tliere. . The Mercury complajns that Mr. P, Sf Krilzht did not vote for tier. W. R, Ntewurt .hi- onooncnt."

OCT IAJfD 6BASTB. While the Herald arraigns the Na tional Republican platform for Its plank declaring against further grants of lands tomonpoltes, tCv, the Plain dealer Is tasistbTg thirt the resolution Is a cheat and I tldt Congress will con tinue t give away'the public domain. It seems quIte ltKpossIble to reconcile these fellows. If we go for land grants, they wall the gobbllng-up of the publlc'domaln. If we go ior Keep ing the lands for settlers, they rail thatve have gone back on Internal improvements. ."The Republican party is entitled to all the credit for the grants of lands that have been given, to the great trans-continental and western roads, and it can well afford to leave tbe de cision as to tbe wisdom of those acts, to time. For our own part we think Congress never did a better thing than giving away the lands without which. j the Union and Central Pacific rallroud would never have been batik, and the Northern Pacific woJd never have been begun. Those grants rerolted in bringing into market millton'j of acres of land that otherwise wou'.d have re mained as valueless for a century as they were ten years ago. Those roads and others bnllt or to be built tinder the munificence of Congress, will create an empire west, 0f the Mississippi, where, without them, a desert wxrald have remalnr-d forever. They are making sale, for lands of the United States, tbat never, otherwise, could have befo sold 5 and they are making way Cor tens of thousands ot homes where, otherwise, the Indian and the cayote would have lived undisturbed lorever. Beside that, they are peo pling and developing the Pacific States and Territories as nothing ele could have done. They have annihi lated two-thirds of the distance be tween the Atlantic and Pacific sea boards, bringing the widely serrated parts of tlte country into social and commercial relations closer Dy so many degrees that figures can scarcely compute the Importance of the change. What the land grants have done for the regions passed through and con nected by these roads, may yet be done by grants for other roads through the great interior. There are other great sections of the interior country that may be profitably opened up and started upon a career of development, by railroads. The united states may yet reclaim, by a liberal railroad-aid policy, other millions of acres of land now lying as useless as the deserts of Arizona. At no very distant time, the universal judgment of the American people will be that all such grants oi laud were wisely given away. THE WASCO RETlBJfS. The Wasco county returns, as we publish them this morning, are as they were "fixed" by tbe County Clerk. They give Burnett 38 majority ; and Monroe, for State Senator, 33 majority, As we said tbe other day, the legally polled vote of one precinct was thrown out aud a bogus poll in the same pre cinct was counted Instead. The legal vote of the county gave Wilson 2 ma jority, and Moody, for State Senator, 14 majority. The returns, however, were "doctored" so as to give the Dem ocratic candidate for State Senator the certificate of election. We understand Mr. Moody will contest, and that he will be able to show a shameless and undeniable fraud and to prove beyond question his own election. The Re publicans of Wasco have been "trick ed" out of one or two elections before. That sort of thing has been carried 011 quite long enough ; and we shall hope to see the matter set right at the prop er time, and in the proper way. A short time ago, tbe Herald was furiously charging that Ben Holladay was gobbling np one of the finest coun tries in the world : and now it is seri ously declaring and trying to prove that there is not enough of the country to be gobbled by anybody, and that Ben Holladay must inevitably fail in trying to operate a railroad in Oregon. Wont the Herald please Inform us to which text it will stick? POSTAI. MATTERS. An order has been Issued establish ing a post office in Wasco county to be called Mt. Hood, and Mr. Holllns- worth has been appointed postmaster, Charles H. Hicks has been appointed postmaster at EHensburg ; and Henry P. Butler, at Toledo, Benton county Tlie Herald showed signs yesterday morning of having begun to realize- in a business way, perhaps that its recent malignity toward Ben Holladay reaching to basely false aspersions of Oregon, its people and industries, will not pay. It is beginlng to plead that it has tbe good of the State at heart as much as any body and like tbe whip ped xchool boy exclaims that It It has done and harm, it "didn't mean 'ter. The Mercury is savage on tlie late tariff, because it lays "a tax on luxu ries" whiskey and tobacco. It is ev idently under the impression that Con gress intended to raise the principal part of tlie revenue of tbe Government off ot Democrats by taxing their sta ples ot consumption. The tariff U little bard on that party. Speaking of the "act to protect liti gants," whereby pauper newspapers are enabled ,to force the public to sup port them, a contemporary says tliat the "act" o't tbe people in the late election don't protect "llturant" or gans to any appreciable extent. The Idaho Standard says "a defec tive platform" was probably . what broke the Democracy of Oregon down in the late election. On tbe contrary, it was such a load of damnable legisla tion as would have broken any party or platform down. The Albany Democrat declares in favor of Hendricks, of Indiana, for President, and Parker, of New Jer sey, for Vice President ; but is willing to go for anybody if the Baltimore Convention says so. A DEM04 KATIC VOICE. The Democratic Era which is about the only straight forward Democratic newsttperin the Willamette valley, wont have any of Greeley. .

In early boy Ixwd he became a member of tlie Methodist Church, and soon after catered Dickinson college, at Carlisle. P. lie was graduated in the first rfass n ftcr the institution camo under the control of the Metho'Hsts. After traveling several years with much suc cess as a minister, he was elected pres ident of Dickinson seminary, at Wil liamsport, I'a. His popularity was such that whenever ho preached in Williamport, he attracted crowds. Desiring to re-enter the pastorate, he resigned the presidency, but hardly had he resumed pastoral duties w hen he was elected president ot the Indiana Ashbury University, at Greencastle Ind., and was Induced to accept, and here he lias remained until the pres ent. REV. DR. WM. L. HARRIS was born In Ohio, in November, 1$17, and became a member of the church in his 19th year. Two years after lie was licensed to preach, and the next year lie joined tlie Ohio conference, and spent ten years iu tho pastoral work. He was then elected principal of the Baldwin institute, and after three years' service resigned to accept a professorship in the Ohio AVesley.ni university at Delaware, Ohio, the presltlency of the late Bishop Thomson . In 1860, a"t the general conference held in Buffalo, N. Y., he was elected as sistant missionary secretary, which office he has held to the present time.

Instead of continuing in that profession, joined the Philadel phia conference in 1849, and in the next 3-ear sailed for China as a mis sionary, returning to this country in 1K54. His knowledge of medicine was of signal value in the mission work Immediately after his return he entered uioii pastoral work, and four years af- terward was elected president of the Pennington seminary, in New Jersey, and lield that position five years.

Stephen's new Society Novel, is In press, and will be published in a few days by T. B. Peterson & Brothers, Philadelphia, Pa. It is said to l the best book that this popular authoress has ever written. "The Reigning Belfe" will be' issued in a large duo- uecimo, voiuinne, umiona witn jars. Stephens' Seventeen other works, and will be for sale at all the Bookstores at the low price of $1,75 in cloth, $1,50 in paper cover, or copies will be sent by mail, to any place, post-paid, by the publishers, on receipt of the price of the work in a letter to them. We understand that T. B. Peterson & Brothers, Philadelphia, Pa., the pub lishers of the popular poem of "Beau tiful Snow," have secured the services ot tlie distinguished American artist, Mr. Edward L. Henry, of New Yerk, to illustrate this fine poem for them ; and they have iu press, to be shortly published, a new illuslmled edition of it. We are sure tliat tlie well known reputation of Mr. Henry will insure to tlie public something above in merit what is usually seen iu so-called illus trated books. The new novels just published bv this well knowu house "Who Shall Be Victor," the sequel to "The Cancelled Will," by Miss E. A.

An Englishman who went to see the Hoosac tunnel was disgusted and said it was only a "blasted E le." He wa right. POLITICAL PARAGRAPHS. The only prominent paper in New England, lieretofbre identified with tlie Republican partv and now sup porting Mr. Greeley, Is the Springfield (Mass.) Republican. That paper is constrained to admit that "tlie anti Greeley movement is evidently gain ing momentum and headway." It closes an article on the "outlook" with tlie observation that, "so iar as present appearances go, the prospect of a cliange of tenants at the White House next March can hardly be described as encouraging." Tlie editor of the Hartford Post, who has lately visited the Southern States, reports that the colored voters will go with the Republican party, while the old rebels to a large extent ftvor Gree ley : lie says: "The instinct of the black man "is to vote for f lie party which brought freedom." He omits j to explain the instinct which moves the old rebels to support Greeley, but it is easily understood. They feci that he may enable them to break down I the Republican party and give them control of the Government. Judge Caton, of Illinois, a proml-j nent Iietnocrat. has written a letter to the Chicago Times, in which lie thus testifies to the general denioraliaation of his imrty and the causes of it : "You tliink I assume too much when I say our choice is necessarily to be made between Mr. Greeley and Mr. Graut. Would tliat I could see that we could have a wider range of clioice. II our party were drilled to the discipline it once was; If we could count upon ev ery Democtattc vote in the country; if we could kindle in tlioin tliat enthusi asm which can alone be aroosed by confident hoie, then we might have some chance of electing a majority of the electoral votes inasmuch as a plu rality vote in most ot the States can elect electors. But in my judgment, our party is so demoralized we cannot depend ttiion ti the voters who liave acted with us." And he proceeds to say ftrrtlier: "The truth p, we are hopelessly de moralized, and the course of events for the last two mouths lias done more to produce this state of things tlian all our disastrous defeats iu tlie last twelve years. Hence it is that I think it would be imiossible to unite our party, with all its strength, on any candidate our convention inisrlit name, no matter how accecptable he might be to us all." WEXDEIX PHILIPS OX UBKEUKl. Wendell Phillips was interviewed recently and said : Whom I shall vote lor, or whether I shall vote at all, I do uot know ; but certainly as against Greeley I am for Grant. We liave had one Andy John son, I will not run the risk of getting another in, and Horace Greeley is such. I want a man with some de cided principles. Greeley never liad any ; besides, I consider Greeley a secession candidate. I believe the plot to nominate him was hatched by Southern white rebels more than a year ago, and has been mainly nursed by them. I advise any one who means to vote for him to find out wliat agree ments have been made by Greeley's tnends with .left Davis and his stan. As to ollice and patronage, I am per fectly certain that there tea distinct mutual understanding it not a positive contract between them, if Horace Greeley enters the White House, that .left' Davis will be as truly a part of the administration as Seward was iu Lincoln's day. Xo negro can vote for Greeley who values his life or property or cart's for his race. If by a frown ot Providence he is elected. I sliall ad vise everv Southern loyalist to load the revolver that Grant's arrest of North Carolina Kiiklux lias allowed to be laid aside. Jf he is elected let tlie ne groes live iu squads of fitly ; whom no coward will uare to snoot tiown, auu show no property alter sunset. Lonely men will be shot, and no black man will own a mule fortv-cisdit hours if :uiv reliel knows the tact. For a loyal administration to pro tect the neirro, awe the rebel, and give the workinsrnien a clianee. Grant's lit tle finger is worth a baker's dozen of Greclevs. MISTAKEN IDENTITY. A irood storv is. told in Washington of a genial young gentleman, unwilling to omit recognition of an acquaintance who, at a wedding reception, lately caught sijrhi of ;i gray-whiskered and rather stately person, and being satis fied by inquiry of his identity, imme diately edged along to nis sioc. "Good eveninz. said he, extending his hand with cordiality. "I'm de lighted to see you ! I believe we liave not met since we parted in Mexico." "I really fear," said the gray-whiskered magnate, "that you have me at advantaire." "Why, you don't recollect! But then I was'very much younger." said the other, "when with my father in Mexico." "And, to tell the truth," said the other gentleman, "my remembrances of ever having been In Mexico are very Indistinct. "Excuse the question," said tlie young, rather desperately ; " are you not Sir Edward 1 horntou r" "By no means. I am Judge Poland of Vermont." "A thousand pardons," said the dis comfited youth moving away." But a tew nights afterward, at an other reception, his eve was similarly cniiirlit, and tho edge ot his mortifica tion having jieen worn ofT, he could smile at his mistake, and he accord in i: ly made his way once more to tlie sit of a gentleman, with gray mutton- chop whiskers, and after a word or two on the weather and scene, he suddenly said : "That was an awkward thing of me the other night, when I took you Ibr old Thornton." "And who do you bike me lor now, may I ask? said Ins companion. "Whv why," said the embarrassed young man of society "you told me you were Judge Poland, of Vermont. "On the contrary, my name is Thornton," was the rather annihilat ing respone ; and the young man at this day calls it a case of diabolic dual ity- SENSIBLE TALK ABOIT AN AlKl'RD If I could persuade alt the young people of Elmira never to treat each other, nor be treated, I think one-lialf of the danger trom our f-trong drink would be gone. If 1 cannot get you to sign the total abstinence pledge. binding until you are twenty-five, I would lie glatl to have you promise three things : I lr.st, never to drink on tin; sly, alone ; second, never to drink socially, treating or being treat ed ; third, when you drink, do it open ly, and ui tne presence or some man or woman whom you respect. Now. boys, jf you wish to be generous, and treat each other, why not select some ether shop beside the liquor shop? Suppose, as you go by the postolhee. you say, "Come, boys, come in and tike some stamps." These stamps will do your friends a real good, aud will cost you no more than drinks all round. Or go by the tailor's store and sav, "Bovs. came In and take a box of collars." Walk up to the counter, tree and generous, and say, "What style will you have?" Why not treat to collars as well as treat to drinks? Or go by a confectioner's and propose to treat to chocolate drops all round? Or say "1 II stand a jack-knue all round:' How does it happen that we have fall en into a habit, almost compulsory, of social druikl.ig? iou drink many a time when asked to, when really you do not want to. When a man has treated you, you feel mean and Indebt ed, and keep a sort ot account current In your mind, aud treat him. And so in the use of just that agent, which at the very best Is a dangerous one, you join hand in hand to help each other to nfln instead of hand in hand to help eacu otner to temperance. l nomas tv Beeeher.

Greeley is quite sanguine of his elec tion. General James Shields U strongly for Greeley. Ex-rebel Postma ster General Reagan is a Greeley man. Greeley's life is insured for $150,000. He couldn't get his election insured for double tlie sum. Somebody neatly refers to Whitelaw Reid as editor of the New York Tribune, vk Greeley, up a tree. The Chicago Times takes decided ground against Greeley, who, it as serts, has tailed to unite the opposition to Grant. Mis? Anna Dickinson Is understood to be preparing a lecture on Horace Greeley, which she proposes to deliver through tbe country during the Pres idential campaign. Judge Curtis, of the Marine Court of New York, is the first instance of an ollice-holder seeking to have hU office abolislied, lie having" written to the Speakcriof the Assembly that tlie Court, having grown useless, should be abol ished. Edmund C. Stedman. the hanker poet, has given up his speculation hi Wall street, broken iu health aud hag gard with financial excitement. He will now resume writing, to the de light of his Boston publishers and the admirers ot his poetic gonitis. The Detroit Tost says: "William II. Seward, the oldest of living Amer ican statesmen, and, notwithstanding some mistakes, the most illustrious, has pronounced himself earnestly in favor of the re-election of President Grant." "Don't ask us which we prefer, Grant or Greeley 1" exclaimed tlie dis gusted Louisville Ledger. "Ask a mau whether he prefers to be bitten by a rattle-snake or a mad dog. and he will tell you. neither, if he can help it." The Democrat who talks of voting for Greeley iu 1872, and then organiz ing on Hancock or some oilier Demo crat in '76, has almut as much idea of party managements as Pat had of trimming shade trees: "Pat," said his employer, "have you finished that work?" "No, sir, yer honor ; but I've done cut the trees all down, and am going to trim 'em up to-morrow." The result of Greeley's sojourn at Ciiappaqua is that the tribune has an article on the adulteration of milk. He thinks tliat If the cow were better under-drained, and the control of its internal revenue regulated bv the Con gressional Districts, it would lay cocoa nuts oi a better quality with titty per cent, more cream to the acre. A compositor, now in the office of the .Newark (..J.) Advertiser, once asked Mr. Greeley's iiillueucc to pro cure a government clerkship in Wash isgton. "Can you saw wood?" quer ied the philosopher. "Yes, sir." fal teringly replied the applicant. "Then stay away from Washington, ' was the only further remark vouchsafed. The compositor now tenders the same service to Mr. Greeley, "no matter whether he can saw wood or not." This is how Greeley's name was first mentioned for the Presidency : On taking his scat in the Thirtieth Congress Mr. Greeley vigorously at tacked the old-mileage abuse, and was bitterly opposed by many of his fellow-members, and at length it was gravely proposed to expel him. "The movement," says Mr. Greeley, "was crushed by a torse interrogatory re monstrance from Long John W'ent worth, then a leading lX'inocrat : 'Why, you blessed fools, do you want to make hini President ?'

Womanly women -are very kindly critics, except to thouiselvits and now and then to their own sex. The les there is of sex aliout a woman, the more she Is to be dreaded. But take a real woman at lier best moment well dressed enough to lie pleased with her self, not so resplendent as to Ik- a show and a sensation, with the varii-d out side influences that, set vibrating the harmonic notes of her nature stirring iu the air alxiiit her and what has social life, to compare with one of those vital interchanges of thought and feel ing with her that make an hour mem orable ? What can equal her tact, her delicacy, her subtlety of apprehension, her quickness to leel I he changes of temperature as the warm and cool cur rents of talk blow by turns? At one moment she is microscopically intellec tual, critical, scrupulous in judgment as an analyst's balance, and the next us sympathetic a the o;h'ii roso that sweeU-ns tlie wind from wjiatever quarter it finds its way to hor iiosom. It is in the hospitable soul of a woman that a man forget he is a stranger, and so becomes natural and truthful, at the same time that he is mesmerized by all those divine difference which make her a mystery and a bewilderment. SEVERE KITH ISn. The New York Evangelist thu al- ludes to Horace Greely : With all his talents, his long ex perience of the world, he has very lit tle insight into human nature ; and in dealing with those who are crafty and plausible, is as innocent and credulous as a child. How many leeches have fastened tqioii him, draining his purse, and almost sucking his blood. Such creatures nse his name and his author ity for thir own seltish ends. This would be our fear iu regard to Mr. Greely, tliat no sooner would he be established in power than there would spring up under his nose a Kitchen Cabinet, that would manipu late things for their own purposes, without a suspicion ever entering his honest soul. And so it might come to pass that, while this sudden uprising ot the eopie might clear out the "military ring," as it is called, and thus exorcise one demon of corruption, yet no sooner would this be driven out and tlie hot.se swept and gam is! ted than tliere would enter in seven other devils worse tlian the first. This might he, even while no man doubted tlie personal Integrity of tbe President. Just as great frauds and scandals were perpetrated under the very eye of Lin coln, tliough he was the most honest of men. such things make ns have a misgiving in regard to this new depart ure, and lecall Lincoln's saying about "swapping horses while crossing tlie stream." A young lady requested to be re leased from her marriage engagement on tlie ground tluit when she contract ed it slie believed her love a "duck," but has since found him to lie a goose. TAEVE OF TTIOKOrtai-BRED ANI HALS. V A thorough-bred animals Is one that will transmit its peculiar characteris tics with almost ineniug certainty to its progeny. Crosses and grade ani mals will not do this with satisfactory certainty. Prof. Agassiz stated a fact which breeders of domestic animals should never forget or undervalue, when he said no offspring is simply the offspring of Its father and mother. It U, at the same time, the offspring of grandfather aud grandmother ou both sides. Without touching ground at all debatable, he might liave asserted tliat this independence ot offspring or liability to reproduce family charac teristics extends much farther up the ancestral Hue. Hence the importance of thorough-breeding. According to acceptation, a cow Is never a thoroiigli bred nor a full-blood ; but in the In stances where sire and dame are Ayrshires, or Durham, or Devon that Is, have been bred pure from many generations they are called thorougli-bred, or full-blood, the terms being synonomous in bi-eeder's rar lance. " A thorough-bred Is made by carefully breeding to estab lish a distinctive and permanent tyie, or interbreeding to retain it; but ot two thorougli-bretls of distinc tive types or breeds are interbred, the Crogeny Is no longer regarded fnll lood or thorough-bred,but cross-breed. THE tVCSTBY TTIINKN OTHER WISE. Mr. Greeley thinks he should be President. Fortunately the country knows better than he. Let us ee : A President who would have said at the commencement of the rebellion, let the South go in peace. A President who would haye ordered the generals "Ou to Richmond" only for defeat. A President who would have ruslied np to Niagara to go through the stupid farce of negotiating a treaty of peace between the North and South, with a scalawag from Colorado as the prinei Kil on the Southern side. A President who would have gone to Richmond to fo upon Jeff. Davis' bail bond. A 'resident who would have bankrupted the country by trying to force sjieeie payineut. For tlie people, especially business men, liave uot forgotten liow, at the close of the war, with gold away up iu the forties, Greeley used all the force of the Tribune to resume at once, crying daily, "The way to reach re sumption Is to resume." If Greeley had been where he could have carried out his policy then, he would have cost this country as much by financial dis aster as the war debt amounted to. Mtl'IBS. Fanners sow wheat; their wives sow tires. A man carrying a bucket of mortar I on his licad must be a sub-lime charac- ter.
