Well, wife, we've had a meetin' at the schoolhouse on the bill, And I was chosen chairman, to keep the old men still. And found I couldnt do it; each man down his cane would plant, And shout with ail the voice he had, "I'm goin' in Lor ureal, We talked about the last four years, what great tinns had been done; How the uati n's debt has melted, like the snows Deiore 1. sun; We said, to ketp it meltin', do a better thing we can't. Than to stick and hang together, and all go in for uranu We all looked through our spectacles upon the neked tacts, Then drew the veil of char'ty over giant Sumner's acts, We Baid, "We like yon Sumner, but go your way w e can 1 Then made the school-house echo with a rousing cheer for Grant. We didn't have much charity for Trumbull or for Schurz; They stand around the party gate, a pair of snarl ing curs, Tlieir speeches cannot harm us, nor make Grant toe the mark, He's an old Galena tanner, and knows how to handle bur. We talked about Grant's smokin'; we thought it nu groat sin To vote mat out of office we might vote a worse oue in: And seein' we were smokers, twouldn't do for us to rant, So we lit our pipes together and smokci the health 01 tyrant. In the clays of the rebellion, none of us could go to ligut, But we read from morn till evening how he battled ior tue rigut; lie has been tne nation's servant in the days of peace and war, And treason melts before him like the smoke from his cigir. After I'd a.ljoumed the meetin' I gave eacr thj lrienJly grip; We every one determined to stand by the war tried ship; We wiil not topple over, we will not even slant.

Koscoe Conkling ad dr ss;d one of tiie largest meeting: ever held in Cw per Institute. The speaker had a must enthu siastic reception, and-made a poweriul siieech on "GlLOiT AND HIS DEFAMKRS 1)EDS AGAINST The Senator said : For twenty years it has bwn my privilege tu ad dnss my neighbors upon political issues, 'lou mucU araor lias )i.riia;s beeu among my iaults, vet uo cuivasa has ever surr-d ma so Uet-p as tins. Ino election has ever appealed so strongly to my sense ot fair play. 2o canvass within my memory has ever been so full oi loul play, injustice, aud malice. .None has ever more strongly tested the common sense and generosity ot tu American people, eleven years' service in Congress has made me a cl'-se observer ot lour 1'resiuciita auj many public m u. Ii among tnem all inure is one l.vuig or ueJ who never knowingly tailed in his duty, that one is I iyssus Sidney tiront. There was a forecast in i.rtjug him the name of Sidney, lor his un-atest, gentiest quality is his magnanimity. L there has ueeu a high oilicial ever rtaiy to aumit and correct an error; ir there has been one w ho did wisely , lifmly, well the tilings given him in charge, Uiui one is a so.dier in war, a quiet patriot in peaei-, who ha been na!iied apiiu by every township in lorty-six States and Teiritories tor the grrtit uust he now holds. Vet this man, honest, brave, mod est, and proved by his tiauscenuiut ucetls to be be stowed with the genius ot common sense and mor al qimlities adequate to the greatest aliairs; tliis iuku who saved ii.s country, wiio snatched our na tionality, our cause from despair, bore them on his shield through the name Oi battle in which but lor him they woulu have perished. This man tiuder whose administration our country has flourished, as uo one dared predict; tiiis man whom the na tion s gratitude and benediction are due, is made the mars tor ribala jests, and odious, groundless slanders. Why is all this Simply because he stands in the way of the trreed aud ambition ot po liticians and schemers. A warot mud and missiles has been waged lor months. '1 he President, his .amily, and nearly all associated with him, have been besiKittered. Truth and decency have been driven lar away. Every thief, cormorant, and drone, who has been put out; every badled mouser lor place or plunder; every man with grievance or grudge; ah who have something to make by & change, seem to wag an unhridleu tongue or drive a loul pen. The President cannot enter the lists of controversy and detend himself. The propieties ot his station torbid it. His chief competitor, managing behind the curtain of a newspaper, Iroia which he pretends to have retired, is free to defend aud putf hiinseh, feels tree to till his paper with b.ise, scurrilous lalsehoods, in the hope of blackening a name which is one of the treasures of the nation, which will be the pride of posterity. All this pol lution will, in the end, disgrace only its authors. It will not disgrace Grant or the nation, because the nation will spurn and resent it. 'I he disgusting personalities emptied upon Gen. Jackson secured his re-election. An oft ended people struck back, and they will strike back again. RIB A LED KESEGADE EEPUBLICAHS. Had the cool veterans of Democracy formed or selected the issues to be presented, they would have been wise enough to so frame them that the people could decide in their favor without fixing a stigma upon tien. Grant, without blasting his name, or doing wrong. Uut the Democratic states men, leaders in hundreds of fights, have been mere lookers-on. The leadership has been assumed by Kepublic&n renegades and outs; men so eaten up whith envy, or so maddened with loss or reiusal ot place and patronage that nothing would satisfy them short of a rancorous, revengeful, personal raid. When & man turns l urk he spits on the cross, and when wide-throated ultra Republicans clandestiney trade with the enemy, and then turn open traitors to their party, they become the mean est, fiercest of the opponents, jnst as the Yankee slave overseer from New England wasalways more brutal than those born in the South. When the men whose vanity was hurt, and others gnawed by ambition and cupidity, went out to ruin the party which they could not rule, madness drove them on. They had no polar star except hatred ot Grant and his supporters. These lnsty patriots, who modest ly assumed the name of reformers, would not have an ordinary Presidential canvass or a fair discus sion oi political questions; such a proceeding would have been too tame and insipid ior them. Then stomachs craved stronger, more game-flavored meat. Hard names must be called. Vengeance must be satisfied. The President must be politi cally court-martialed or dragged before the national assize to be tried as a malefactor. In the Senate the Democrats proper kept silent or talked about business. I give them credit for wasting but little time. But half the last session, eight mongths in length, was worn out and wasted by slanderous electioneering harangues, aimed at the Administra tion and its triends, by men badly in need of being reformed themselves. TheAA aelf-rirhfjnii nrttKv ! oracles pitched the key in which the AnU-Grant vuorus was to oe sung. Hence comes the absence of political questions and the presence of person and scandalous issues. Public journals, and newspa sl per correspondence from Washington, con trolled by these Liberals liberal in nothing so much as in defaming honest men, praising and helping themselves took the cue from heartburn ings, distempers, std ambitions, which set them on. "Anything to beat Grant," was the motto. It gratified their lite and spite to assail the President personally, heap malignant charges npon him. f hus his character, his integrity, and his standing s a man have been put in itsue. The people are compelled to pass upon his guilt or innocence. Ibe case has been so put thatlhe question is not merely whether Grant shall be President, but whether Grant shall be pronounced by the nation a fool, a knave, an impostor, and an enemy of his country; Had the issue been taken upon public measure, or a public question been raised, whether new questions or those which have divided parties heretoiore, the popular verdict would have been a verdict only between parties, policies, and princi- les. Such a verdict would have rested upon pub c grounds, personally disparaging to no one. In that case Gen. Grant could not complain. THE CINCINNATI BALTIMORE PLATFORM. The Senator then referred to the Cincinnati plat form, characterizing it as libelous upon the Presi dnt, and of the men who figured at Cincinnati as gro ips of disreputables from the political gn tiers. Their tariff resolution 13 a mere jangle, a shallow evasion. The amnesty resolution is spent because a general amnesty bill has already been passed, while that about centralism, if it meant anything, referred to measures oi Uemgress which Greeley had himself approved. Where, then, is the politi cal issue the people are to pass npon? It cannot be civil service retorm, unless dishonesty is imputed to the President. He is tor civil service reiorm. He recommended it, inaugurated it. The Phila delphia Convention specially declared for it, There can be no issue of that kind except by pretending that Grant is a hypocrite and that Greeiey is not. Neither of these things would be easy to prove. The condition presents only assaults upon the President, and is nothing more or less than a chal lenge lor a comparison between the candidates, t he issue is wliicn is personally the fittest man ior the Presidency. The Democracy had surrendered its creed, and now, to wipe out the very memory of Democracy, these vaulting managers selected" as their figurehead a professed ultra itepublicau, and ask honest Democrats to vote tor him against o man born and bred a Dem'ici at, who never acted with the Kepnblican party till after the war had raised new issues, on which Democrats divided. The anti-Grant managers are daring, it they are not silly. '1 hey attempt to crowd down the throats ot Democrats, who lought the .Maine law, the men who drowned all other voices in his ou' cries for penal statutes, Sunday laws to stop by for:e drink ing even lager beer. Upou what erounds are Dem ocrats expected to vote tiie ticket.' There can be no reason unless Grant 13 unworthy of confidence or respect, and to be found guilty of the crimes and vices alieged agaiust him. GRANT'S RECORD. The sneaker then referred to the onlv mlnrntlnn and liie oi Grant, reading from letters" written to ms parents over t urtv venrs a".K Mr. Sumner, he said, wituers him by reminding us that he tanued uiues at Galena ior a few hundred dollars a year. He did not masquerade as a woud-cuopper; he did nut figure in pictorials as a farmer; he did not go round tellilli; what he knew about mivtliinir that lie didn't understand himself. His career in the re- netiiou is known to tne whole world. Subsequent ly the Democrats sought to nominate him lor the Presidency, but he declined, liis integrity taualit him that when a j arty chooses a candidate Irom the other side somebody is to be cheated, and by Grant's consent no one ever was or ever will be cheated. '1 he speaker then cited from the New York H'or.l and Horace Greeley allusions comulimentarv to Grant, made in 1 S05.

TUE PHILADELPHIA CONVENTION. The Convention at Philadelphia turned out to have not uioie than thirty oilicc-holders. No Na tional Convention 01 a party in power ever met be fore in wnich men holding "othcial station were not largely present. Perhaps uo single precinct in tiie wuole country so eiiecuial.y gave the lie to the pre tense that otlice-houlers controlled the people as the Seventh V ard, boston, in w hich Sumner lives, and in which the Kcpublicans turned out en mux and voted unanimously tor Grant. Sumner, in his opposition, could not command a vote. iue announced wish ot Cohax to withdraw from public lite leit the Convention without unity of Sentiment as to the second place on the ticket, t he cho.ee led upon the man wuoin Air. Wade has well described as the incarnation oi American citi zenship. Born a ehild ot poverty and toil, the Na uck cobbler had won a place in the respect and good wiil of his countrymen which made it fit the second office in the Republic should be held by Henry Wilson. Without contrast between his colleague and himself, tiie prize might not have iaden to him but lor the inexcusable conduct of Sumner. The Convention preterred Wilson for his own great merit, also because his nomination would record the national judgment against the preten sion that the party belongs to any man, or is sub ject to the wliim or dictation of any knot of men, however petted in the past. Wilson has been a Seuator many years. During Gen. Grant's whole military anil civil service he has at all times upheld Republican measures; therefore is answerable, as he wishes to be, tor the acts of the party and tbe policy ot the Administration. Objections to either candidate apply to both, and can be argued togeth er. The administration is on trial. Charges are made against it which must be met. The speaker then proceeded to show how George Washington was abused by his political opponents, aud said: "Suppose all that has been said about Grant was true, he had made a goed President," SAN DOMINGO. The Senator then took up the San Domingo question, and said that when the treaty was pro posed, Grant asked Sumner, Chairman of the Com mittee on Foreign Relations, if he would support it. General Babcock and Colonel Forney were present at this interview, and all understood Sum ner to have said that he would support it; that he could not think of doing otherwise than support ing the Administration in tbe matter; and, further, that there was no objection to the instrument as a whole. Yet Sumner, having meanwile taken of tense because his views and wishes in other mat ters were not deterred to, became incensed at the President and Secretary Fish, and denounced them, and among other things, the San Domingo treaty, and raising tbe issue of veracity with three wit nesses, denied that he ever intimated that he would give the treaty his support. Among the glaring absurdities heaped npon the San Domingo matter is the allegation that war was made upon the Republic of Hayti. The foundation for this is that a vessel or two" cruised in that part of the ocean during the negotiations. Not a gun, pocket-pistol, or percission-cap was fired, and the only warlike demonstration ever heard of was that a sea-captain sent up a sky-rocket from the deck of his vessel. The purpose of this Bky-rocket or where the stick came down never has been ascer tained. .; SUMNER AND THE FOREIGN RELATIONS COXKIT TEE. The Senator then spoke of Sumner's removal from the Chairmanship of the Foreign Relations cuiuuiiucc, uuu boiu 1 1 was not a removal at. an. All the Senate committees die at the end of each session. He was not deposed because ot his oppo- ' sition to the San Domingo scheme. Sumner did not bold communication with thetitate Department, and the Senate was delayed for weeks for the lack I of information. The simple, and indeed the only cure for this was to select another chairman. This was done, and nothing more, and it turned out that the treaties, six or seven in number, having long lain buried in the committee, altera change oi chairman were at once brought up and ratified; "nepotism." private secretary; Uovernur Reward's son was As- i S rvh.i!.t, ,- - Administration: has assailed sistant Secretary of State; Edwin M.

The Sentitor then proceeded to pxammp lire,.. ley's fitness tor the Presid.mcy, and claimed that the very talents he Lea shon-u nntit him tor tne Presidency. The Republican party has been blam ed tor not gratiiying Greeley's ambition tor oihce, but the mass ot the party, thousb appreciating his eccentric genius, believed him erratic and not pos sessed ot practical wisdom, moderation or business Capacity to make a useldl or sale official. His course in the Constitutional Convention was a se ries ot peevish attempts to do everything, and re suited in his prematurely leaving bis post alter pouring upon members a vollv ot oaths. His aiHii- atious with men tad shown him to be a poor judge ot hitman nature. The worst men have stiu lc hv mm iiKe oarnacies, aud his management ot every .aji. w.uiuj a ucwsuauei, una snuwu him wanting in business capacity. As an editor he lacked a balance wheel to keep himtrom inconsist encies. His investTtnts of monev, his ventures with Tweed, and lending his name to men unwor thy to trust, evinced unsound iudsment. The eni- thets and libels with which he pursues those he uaies or envies, snows a strangely unennsttan and unbridled nature. Truthful history will never re- coru mat norace ureeiey owed tbe Republican party nothing, but the verdict will be that he spoke like the scheming ingrate when he said: "1 am periectly willing to pass receipts with the Pcepubli l.can party and say our accounts are now settled and closed." Mr. Conkling next came to Greeley's record, say ing all his deeds are to be found in his words. Ex tracts from the 7r(6t(we, after the first election and prior to the inauguration of Lincoln, were read to show that he incited secession by expressing wil lingness to let the south leave the Union peae..-ably, as were all the extracts from the speeches by Gen. Blair in the Senate in 18T1 to making the same charge. The "On to Richmond" articles of the Tribnue were also quoted as the incarnation of con summate and lolly, which drove the army headlong to Bull Kun. Betore that battle said Con k ling, Gree ley imputed treason to Gen. Scott, and after the de feat he coddled np to Scott, whom he had tried to dishonor less than four weeks previously. Greeley, early in Lincoln's administration, be came his enemy. This Lincoln knew, and was ever on his guard. This is noticeable in the Niag ra Falls peace affair. Greeley had been for seces sion when secession might be avoided; he had been for battle when the tune was not come; he had been in turn for war rnd peace, when each was im possible; and early in 1364,, when the rebellion wis about to eolapse and when everything depended up on keeping the North erect, with united and un daunted froEt, Greeley fell into a swoon of de spondency, and blamed our authorities for not try ing to make peace. Details of his negotiations at Niagra showed, said Conkling, undeniably that First Greeley was gulled by a shallow swindle. Second That he not only bit at the bait, but pressed the matter npon Lincoln, in a manner show ing his intention to carp at him unless he yielded to his views. Third That Lincoln punctured the fraud at a glance, and yet Greeley did not see it. Fourth T hat Greeley bungled the whole affair at Niagra or else purposely violated the repeated in structions ot the President. Fifth That he tamely submitted to the most un blushing effrontery and imposition from rebels. Sixth that he expressly admitted and stated that Lincoln had been fickle or untruthful, when he knew he had not, and finally; that when Lincoln Bought to vindicate himself by making the truth public, Greeley stifled the truth by threatening If it were told to publish matters having no bearing on the case, but whiiih would deeply wound the public interest. Who, said Conkling, can wonder that Stanton proposed the arrest ot Greeley tor holding unau- uiui icu uuu injurious intercourse witn tne euemyv Greeley's financial policv, first opposing the Legal-Tender Act, then favoring it; now opposing and . a.-uHi,UuC ui sausiactory coiidi- i u e find also, social Science, or what do we mean SjH aking o civil service reform, the Senator Prison Reiorm What aVe C Ss?

My first reason, liKe most people who travel rauch, was for health ,My second reason to see the. c.untry, and see how the people stood'oa; the Presidential question. I find- after seventy rive days steady investigation that the middle, Eastern, and Western States ar for U. S. Grant,; and the South-' ern States are tor Greeley. Kentucky goes for Greeley or the ground that Greeley was always a staunch Clay man. The Repablican States gtv tor htm on tne ground that he is their warmest tr tend, and that their wishes, in fheirowri opiniouins, will be adhered to. Thousands ot whites aud three fourths of the blacks will vote for Grant, and thus ail the Middle, Eastern, and Western' States to elect Grant, by a large majority In the time given above I have listener! 'to arguments on all sides since the "Lib eral Convention," and the whole weight seems to go for Grant. One gent leman remarked "we know what Grant has done, and we know how well and efficiently he hasjarried, on the Gov ernment aflairs; and now, for us to place in office a new man, and especially one too old and leeble to transact his own newspaper buai - ess, it looks to me like tomfoolery and for my part I am strict ly opposed to such a change, and will go' mybi)tttm dollar for Grant, the patriot and: soldier." Another said "I cant see how any Democrat, after having read Greelev's New York Tribune for fortv years caw stomackhe him (Greeley) for their candid'-' ate lor President, when during all thai time he has said and w ritten all he could1 against the Democrat party; while on thep other hand we all know,' General Grant, to be of genuine old Democratic princir' pies, and a most faithful and popular-" head of the government."
