At the consolidation meeting held at livansviliepii the 7th in stant, strong delegations of earn e8t' busiifes8 men were present from every county traversed by the line of the road.

The people along the line must do their whol duty. Let the work of local subscriptions go on. Each man who can con tribute anything mi money or ma terials should freely do it. This course will inspire increased con fidence with Eastern capitalists. A long pull, a strong pull, and pull altogether, will now certainly build the road. Seymour Sun. Selling Powder to the En-.. . emy. , The Germans, both at home and abroad, are most indignant on learning that -Grant, instead of being their best friend, as he professed, has been detected in the act f selling arms and am munition to the enemy.. While the war- between Franco and Prussia was in progress, and more especially when its result was no longer a matter of doubt, the President expressed himself with such zeal on the subject that, in stead of being Scotch in his de scent, as l.e claims, he was sup-, posed to be a genuine son of "Faderland." i Bat-' it' now turns out that, during all.,' this while, he and his friends were rnnninsr the Government' bffices day and night in the preparation of car fridges uto kill the d d Dutch,' as : Ulysses is reported to have said when in hi3 cups.V Consid ering, the .vw eighty siifiport they gave him in his election, it is by no means a - matter, ot surprise that they should resent this du plicity; . and - if they now carry ont their intention of withdraw ing their votes from him in the event of hi9 re homltiation, no one can deny that it will be an act of deserved retaliation and well inflicted punishment. Prevaling Erros. It is a mistake in the Radical leaders to suppose that the Gov ernment of the United. Stutes has no other excuse for existing than that of being useful to the Radi cal party, v . '" " . V ; It is a mistake in Grant and his associates to snppose.that the rank and file of the Republican party will be satisfied to have that party used solely for 'the purpoee of enriching rings. 7 i , It is a mistake .' of the ' protec tionists to suppose that farmers earu money merely for the pleas ure of having it lakenfrcm them by monopolists. ' .! It is a mistake that should be remorselessly crushed out where- ever it exists, to suppose that of fices, are established for; the ad vantage of office-holders, and not for the good of the people. 2FIf the German press in dicates the views of the German voters, Grant will have little sup port from them. .
