W. DEECIIER ON THE PRESIDENTIAL. NOMINEES. lVhat Ace the lessons to Yaungr Mcu Taught by the lives oi the Two Can- dldates lor the Presidency, From the Cbicazo Tribune. The attainment of the highest position in Americans the result of the suffrages a great and intelligent free people, w an event unprecedented in the history of nations Kinpr1 inherit by descent, or take the throne by military power; but a here roan i isee from obscurity, without family or name, or wealth, or friends, to a power greater than that of an Emperor. The history of aaoh a phenomenon is most instructive, and the example most powerful as an educator of ambitious youVn for good or evil, Take first the case of Grant: Sent by Borne friends to tho military schools of the Nation, although exhibiting no special intellectual ability, he graduates only respectably as to the attainments. JIo retires to private unsuccessful business life, doing nothing, sayinir nothing, writing nothing to benefit society. Neither in art, or science, or morals, or education, or political economy, do we hear of him ; but, during the war, he comes to the front, receiving all the men and means he asks for; leads our army to victory, crushes the Rebellion, and becomes General of tho Array of the United States and Provident of the Nation. The only lessons taught are : First eccure, by the influence of friends, an an education . at the public expense ; eecond, wait for a war, and fight, and rise to command if you can,and yoa may become President. Now, what is the moral effect of such lessons on our young men ? Arc they Republican, or desirable, either morally ar civilly ? Uut, in contrast with this, behold a youth brought to labor, acquiring an art and an education by hia own labor, patience, and perseverance, without friends, or patronage, or wealth; pushing' his way, in our chief city, amid the bustling, striving, selfish throng; establishing a journal, doing his own type setting and press-work, writing his own editorials, securing items of news and of business employing his men, and as his paper and means grow, selecting hia writers and the employes of hia office without papital,and against powerful competition and partisan strife and misrepresentation ptcadily gaining friends and influence. Taking ground from the start, against the use of intoxicating drinks, by his iqwn consistent example, clear, earnest, and cogent writings, ho carried with others, the Temperance cause on to to. great Buccesa. He 'bid always advocated the disuso pf tobacco and opium, luxurious living, and sinful and injurious amusements; has advocated industry, honesty, truthfulness; frowned on cruelty, Injustice, and oppression, by whomever practised, end, by tho most powerful, clear, and pungent editorial, enforced by hia own consistant example sought ever the best good of hia fellow countrymen. In the groat Anti-Slavery Btrufrgle,--tho greatest moral, political and physical content the world has ever known extending in its ratifications to tlH.1 Jf -JilVKigSagf iLLS!J almost every nook and corner of social, civil, political, commercial, and religious life, and exciting the fircest passions of all classes, he was foremost and always faithful, when it cost much to be so, for both political parties, the great commercial interests, a largo part of the Christian ministry and of tho churches, were not Aoti Slavery, much less abolitionists. Through all the struggle, till the fiual victory, he was faithful, and good and powerful with his pen, neither bought with inouey, frightened by threats or seduced by oilers of place and honor. Always taking the part of the poor, the unfortunate, the friendless, he aided them by his sympathy, advice, and money ; sometimes imposed upon, but ever saying," better to give to many imposters" than let one worthy -brother suffer ; always in the van of reform, maintaining the rights of the laborer, the emigrant, the slave, and of women. Ho stands before the American peoplo the most remarkable and wonderful example of an intelligent, persevering, and successful editor ever kuown in this or any other land, having written on a great variety of subjects of vital importance, with fewer mistakes and less to take back or regret, than uny other. Much more might be truthfully added. But I hasten to ask. Which of these lives, example?, wcrks, shall be hdd up and urged ou the American youth : the man who, by his own in dornitable industry, intelligence, and perseverance, has not only achieved a noble education and a standing in the front rank of journalism ; but who has done more, a3 an educator, for honesty, truth, temperance, chastity, morality, as well as National politics and Republi can government, than almost any other , who never took a bribe or gift to blind his eyes ; who never was accused of f.i'sahood ; whose fiercest political ene mies dare not charge him with dishon esty ; or the man, educated on public chanty, made prominent only by war , not given to tcmpcranco ; wlfo is pois oned through and through by tobacco, as II. Wilson testifies; who has taken mmy gifts ; who has been a partaker with the thieving Murphy; who has never cast a Republican vote; who has never been known toie imposed upon by poor unfortunates because of his kuowu kindness and generosity; who has never written or uttered a remark able sentence on any subject ? Look on this picture, and then on that. Which shall you wish your pon to imitate? Whose example shall be elevated to the gaze of the American youth for the next four years ? William II. Rekciier. Chicago, Sept. 2G. TCRRIKIJ; ARR MCN.MENT OF THE A 1S1I NITRATION PARTY. From a vigorous letter written by Geo. Alfred Townsend to the Chicago Trib une, we select the following telling points: Til It WEALTH THAT IS FOR Oil ANT. It may safely be said that there never were so many mean men in America as at this period. In the brave old days of wealth amongst us, the successful men maintained whaling fleets, traded with distant regions, hoisted the flag of Free Trade and Sailors Right's and relied upon the public spirit to be more certain and sovereign than Federal caution. Much of the wealth amongst us now is the prize of chicanery, of 'profit of evil gotten monopoly, the spoil of the public estate, the sweepings of usury, and the friut of oovetousness on the Paternal Government" in time of loose purchas ing and boundless out-lay. To sec the party disband, under whose auspices this kind of traffic began and continues effects many a guilty, gainful conscious ness. TWO RICH MEN. Take the two supreme instances of accumulations in America-" Stewart and Vanderbilt. The former is a liberal hand cd advocate of Mr. Greeley's election ; the latter, over the card table, with hia breeches-pockets buttoned, says that Grant's election is tho best for New York Central stocks. Mr. Stewart was a prosperous merchant before thowar and Gen Grant was so impressed with him that Stewart's name was presented to the Senate for the first responsible office in the lease of the Administration. Mr. Vanderbilt has no respect for any laws ; ho lobbies at Washington to save the payment of taxes upon fraudulent issued stock, and falsely declare divi ders : lnvbroaks the laws of the State of New York every week in the year, and defends his ill-gotten profits by systematic and costly litigation, pre. DALLAS, OREGON, ferring to fatten lawyers rather than to pay his dues ; and he is tho type of that class of men who do not take their chances before honest courts, who have no confidence in the people or public expression, and who prefer a Grant they dscpise to a Greeley they fear and can not buy with presents. WHICH IS THE SAFE COU.SE. The South, is growing poorer every day, with the solid moial influence of tho Administration systematically turned against them. The negro has been made a citizen, but not a man ; ho caunot defend himself; he is inci ted to remember his former condition and oppress his late master. Is it a "safe Presidency" that you propose to put upon these patients, appealing millions of fellow men, with wives, daughters and infants, like unto you, in that man.on-horseback whose Sec retary of the Treasury says there shall be no shaking of hands across the bloody chasm- Or is it not as safe to clasp the outstretched hands, and hear with pride the Rebel army singing "Wo rally 'round the flag?" For this our young men died ; our old men marched ; our women bore the absence of sons and husbands. Their sacrifice is not till now crowned with a perfect laurel. It is Horaca Greeley who goes forward to meet thii column of half our Union ? It is the Migittrate who feels no pul-e beat at this great conccss ion, but hastens off to Long Branch, like a duller Tiberius to a meaner Ca prea G3FELF.Y AND THE ROCOIIS; It is said with tho 1oso assertion of the seoond-rate or dependent press, that Mr. Greeley's associ ites were not the most exalted rnn ; yet who ever heard of him taking entertainment from Jita Fi.-k, or attending a hre rare or lunching with Jocphi'ne ManScld, or .laying poker with Rufus Ingnlls, or writin potter to lock up gold under the dictat:on of Abel R. Corbin ? Hm acquaintance h universal, as an editor's raul be; and it is the iuot extraordina ry instance of the inspiring and beloved character of the man that, among the clafecs he has uifvt often rebuked, the fi'Tce aud physic!, he has staunch and anient advocates. He who cau taiu the lawless as an editor can assuage pannon and outbreak when he h made a magistrate. Half the power of Magistracy is in its benignity and mild influence upon the erring. He who ignores the representatives of tho rouuh clashes, and rules for a purely rich and respectable world is blind as an idealest. The sturdy belief of Hor ace Greeley, that kiudnews is sovereign, and that even a thankleps errand to save human life is not in vain, has received in our age the greatest testi monial in history. The effect of his hastening to sign the bail bond of JeffcrHou Davis is seen in a nation of of warriors adopting his principles, and taking, under his leadership, re newed pride and interest in our common country. THE SQUARE BUSINESS MEN FOR GREE LEY. The honestly prosperous men of the country those whose capital is all in vested in the lines of production arc confident in the honesty and consistcn cy of Horace Greeley's life and pur pose. He believes that money should not be a printed lie passing for more than its value, to the permanent insta bility of prices and the injury of pro ducers and consumers. Ho has no admiration for vast and subtle combi nations of usurers and note-shavers, called Sydicatcs. Ho docs not think that, corporation's should plungo wildly into debt to give brokers opportunity to realize millions in the negotiation of bonds. He docs not approve fhc ctucI hue-and-cry against the good inten tions of the South, in order that Mr. Scott may pick up the impoverished railways there and annex them to his monopoly ; while Mr. Cook by the same tactics, sells all the bonds of hia North Pacific Road by discouraging investment in tho Southern Pacific. Such unlawful and ungencrtus schemes as these, passing under the cyo of General Grant without his knowledge, may well see tho ghost of good order come back to life in the countenance of Horace Greeley, and tremble for their thirty pieces of silver. Nothing can bo secure; wealth attained without desert ; posterity is cursed for the processes of its parents, when" grasping 1 Mammon lends the President by tho hand, and the Secretary of the Treas ury swears that none shall shake hands across the bloody chasm. A vote for Greeley is a vote for torn- pc,.c; morality and reconciliation SATURDAY, OCT. 2G, TIIE LID ICR AI, PARTV. The Libtral party has already mad such progress as was never before witnessed in a national government, so hastily organized and so purely spon taneous. It has won to an acceptance of all the results of tho war, substan tially the whole democratic party. It has extorted from its antagonist a partial measure of amnesty. It has buried tho questions of secession, slavery, tho rebel debt,pensions to rebel soldier, negro disfranchisement, beneath a practical agreement of parties, and of the whole American people. It has given voice and force to the popular demand for national reform. If it die-to-morrow, it would nevertheless have earned the gratitude of patriots, and a sure and high place in the hitory of tbo country. But it has about it all the signs of vitality and success. Made up of co alitions, as was the Republican party, it has taken the best from each, has in it the same classes of young men who brought speedy succe? to Republican ism, is inspired with the same healthy ardor, tho same certainty of possessing the future, the sarco aggressive devo tion to its convictiouH. More than all; it follows a noble leadership. Wc do not now speak of the national candidates, who. at this late day' need no praise of ours. But just look once more at the plane to which our stand ard bearers in the States have lifted this contest. In Michigan, Zachariah Chandler marshals the administration forces. Againt him stands Austin Blair, war governor, Republican of Be publicans, stainless public servant, in spiring popular leader. Liberal Re publicans and Demoerata unite in pup jrting him for Governor. Mr Zach ariah Chaudlcr docs not think well of him. Voting men ' whichj leader think you, is likely to have the party of tho future f In Illinois, ex Liut. -Governor Korr ncr, one of the noblest types of the German-American, while round him rally Palmer, Trumbull, Davis, and a whole hct of men, diftingnished for ability acd purity, whee habit it is to lead live parties, not to hang battening on the verge of decaying ones. In New Vork wc have Francis Kcr man, a gentleman of wJio?e hih ability and winning personal character even his bitterest enemies must sjeak with respect His political record is al?o unspotted. A consistent Democrat, he was nevertheless a firm supporter of the war, and one of the earliest, most earnest and efficient allies of Samuel J. Tildcu and Chatles O'Conor in tbeir crusade against the Tweed and Sweeny ring. Ho is a fit reform champion for a reform canvass. In Pennsylvania ex-Senator Bucka lew presents a remarkable contrast to his competitor. While the administra tion has chosen as its leader in that State the most vuluuerablc of all the politicians of tho corrupt Cameron ring, tho partner of a convict, our friends have presented the name of one the most distinguished and honorable statesman, Kx-Scnator Hendricks in Indiana is one of the strongest men of the Dem ocraticparty, a statesman of national reputation, who has filled many offices with credit, and been more than once proposed for the chief office in the na tion. Finally, in Massachusetts the Liberal Republicans have nominated Charles Sumner. Kulogy of this illustrous man, would be little better than imper tinence. His fame is part of the glory of America. These are the standard bearers with whom the Liberal party is marching on to victory, To every one of them the people can turn uot merely with pride, but even with enthusiasm. Every one of them will strengthen tho canvass nod add dignity to the c?use ; and it may well be paid that no party in the United States has ever fought a cainpaigu under such tu ar ray of distinguished captains no los ing party has been able to win for its leaders such a group of winning men. . One of Grants Revenue Collectors was arrested at Lancaster, Pennsyl vania, the other day for attemping to bribe one of the judges of ejection to stuff the ballot box and reduce Buck alew's majority at that place to one hundcrd majority. What a precious set of thieves that man Grant is ac quainted with. State Rights Demo, crat. Four years no Hamilton county, Ohio, in which Cincinnati is located, avc (Irant ix thousand majority.
