- Kendallville Correspondence, - KENDALLVILLE, JuLy 29. Mz. Eprror:—The Greeley and Brown | club met on Friday evening according to adjournment. After the transaction of some business pertaining to the meeting to be held here on the 81st inst., General Milo 8. Hascall was introduced and favored us with a very interesting speech which was received with frequent applause by the large audience present. The General has been a Republican from the time of 'the organization of that party, and 1 think he conyinced the audience that he has not in the least departed from true republican’ principles in taking his present ppsition. He is a graduate of West Point and was a first lieutenant in the army when Grant was a second lieutenant. He served in the army nearly four years during the late rebellion. He was at the front in active service, and figured prominently in many important engagements, as the history of those times will show. The General was quite severe in his dealings with Iddings, Moon, Copeland, & Co. He says that the nomination of Sayler is very satisfactory to the officeholders of this District, and that they expect to manipulate him to their interests it successful in the coming elections. He says the position of the democratic party is'a proud one,—that it has risen above party prejudice and is ready to join hands with its former political enemies in order to reclaim the country from the hands of bad men ; that Greeley’s cabinet would be composed of such men as Trumbull, Seymour, Schurz, Thurman, Groesbeck,— the purest and ablest men cf the country. The speaker ' contrasted the financial ca~ reers of the two candidates, Greeley and Grant; the former a perfect success, the latter a failure until the late war, and then successful only as a gift-taker. After the close of the General’s speech, Mr Goodwin came forward, in response to'the call of his friends; and assured the audience that he is emphatically for Greeley and Brown, promising to address the club at an early date. Mr. Sayler claims that the railroadsand ‘other improvements, promised by the car-pet-baggers of the South, have been made. Horace Greeley, after traveling through the South La’nd making a thorough examination, said, in a speech before the Lincoln club, that the improvements have not been made, and that the bonds stuck to the fingers of the issuers, I think “H. G's” remarks will apply to Sayler: “You lig, you villain, you lie!” B The Standard last week devoted three columns to the denunciation of Col. Wil. liams and his speech at Ligonier. A few short weeks ago it had naught but praise for him. i

I must again speak of the irritable condition of “Senator” Bunyan's mind. He is certainly losing that christian fortitude which he once possessed, for once when he and Gousor, with some others, were playing a game ot “‘seven up,” he became satisfied that Gonsor was cheating him and said: “Gonsor, d—n you, if it was not for my christian forbearance I would kick you down stairs.” it The Greeley and Brown club, at their last meeting, adjourned to meet on next Wednesday evening, July slst, when 1t is expected that Senator Hendricks will be present to address the meeting. . “Come out and see the next Governor.” “Come out and see the next member of Congress,” and now I see stuck up, “Come out and see the next Vice President.” These are characteristic invitations, to be seen on nearly every radical poster.. You have heard of persons whistling to keep their courage up. I think this is a good illustration, ‘ A Mr. Snyder, living some two miles west of this place, lost two children last week of what was thought to be scarlet fever. Delegates wishing to attend the convention, to-be held at Columbia City .on the 6th of August, can take a train which leaves here at 4:20 in the morning, making connection with a train on the Eel River road, which leaves the crossing at 7:20, &. m. and arrivesat Columbia City at 8:50, a. m. | Our liberal republican friends are quite afixious to have a representative on the county ticket. Some gentleman from Noble township, who is a Liberal Republican, is mentioned for Recorder. : A man by the name of Walker, a particular friend of Hi Iddings, who formerly lived in Ligonier but is now residing in Tennessee, professes to be a Greeley man and says that Greeley will ‘pay for the slaves if he is elected. Now, thisisa game that is being played by Grant and his office-holders. This Walker is one of Grant’s emissaries, hired to start just such stories. / ' . Ed. Spencer had a horse stolen last week. No intelligence of either the horse or thief yet. : [ ~ We have more than fifty Liberal Republicans in this township who will vote for Horace Greeley and the entire antiGrant ticket. HORACE.

THE largest political meeting held in Michigan thus far, was held at the opera house, at Detroit, on the®23 inst,; to ratify the Cincinnati-Baltimore nominations. The opera house was crowded, and the meeting was presided over by Hon. Rob: ert McClelland, and addressed by him, Congressman Blair, and Duncan Stewart, Liberal, of Detroit. About 4,000 people were in attendance, and everything passed off harmoniously and great enthusiasm was a noticeable feature of the meeting.

IT is amusing to see the friends of the Long Branch President squirm over the constant accessions to the Greéley movement of leading Republicans. Whenever a former Grant man takes' a stand for Greeley he, is immediately stigmatized a “dead-beat” and'a “sore-head.” Plenty of “scre-heads” this season, It seems to be a good year for them. i

Tae Young Men’s Jackson Association of Pittsburg, whick prior to the Baltimore convention was in favor of nominating a “straight” ticket, has adopted reso: lutions unanimously endorsing Greeley and Brown. This i§ another strtaw for the Grantites to squirm over, inasmuch as they are so deeply interested in the course that Democrats are now pursuing. ; It is now believed that the persons who recently attempted to assassinate King Amadeus were the hired instruments of a political conspiracy. Tm&pd

i : .. For the National Bpnner?ifffq Self-Condemnation—President ._Gmlpl‘ | and the Philadelphia Platform. ' The severest commentary that'can bemade on the failure of the first term of Grant’s administration 1s the platform on which he stands for re_election. ' Every ipxportant promise which it puts forth for ‘ the future is a confession of the adminis—l tration's dereliction in the past. Each successive pledge made at Philadelphia thms State’s evidence to convict the very candidate in whose behalf it was made.

| Let us examine some of the planks in this famous Philadelphia platform.- ’ | 18t. Grant’s platform demands a reform of the civil service. Grant has been in power nearly four years. During all this time he has had a working majority in ﬁoth' Houfkes of Congress, ready to do his daily bidding. Indeed at times this majority has exhibited toward him the subrviency of lick-spittles. Thaey have been prompt to serve him. Have they not in every case made undue haste to confirm he appointments of his father, brothersij]h law, nephews, uncle’s wife's relation,— ‘in short, all his nepotistic appointments? ‘This majority of Grantites in Congress “were quick to catch his wink, and to obey his beck for the removal of Charles Sumner from the chairmanship of the Committee on Foreign Relations. Did they not, like cowards,submissively bow their knees with the “bold fighting President,” who nevertheless is for peace, in a common and ignominious surrender to England. When ‘ ‘has he failed to receive their votes when he wanted,them for any purpose, good or bad? Never. Why, then, does his party at Philadelphia, through the mouth of a packed convention, demand civil service. reform ? Of whom do they demand this? Of themselves. What'thoughtfu) citizen, therefore, can refrain from asking, why bave they not alréady inaugurated that. civil service reform which they pretend to demand ? What excuse can they give for having delayed it? What apology will they ofler for this neglect, especially ! since Gen. Butler has denounced it? Out of their own mouths are'they adjudged guilty, and whereby they s’&and'self-con-—‘ demned. o ;

2nd. Grant’s platform demands that the franking privilege be abolished. We ask again, why have his relatives,natural and adopted, always so systematically voted against any such measures? Could they not have done the very same thing they now promise to do? Past actione speak louder than promises for the future. They have had every opportunity to accomplish. this reform. If they were in earnest, now the devil trust them, when they have had the fairest opportunities to achieve this triumph at any time within the past three years, to say now that the franking privilege ought to be abolished.. If it is popular with the republican party, judge of the condemnation resting upon this ungodly crew for not having abolished it long ago. Here, again, they are self-con-demned in their own court. ¢ |

3rd. Their platform asserts State rights. Why, then, hus the administration so repeatedly violated those rights? Why have we had during Grant’s administration an unbroken series ot intrusions by the Federal government into local affairs ? - Why has the military been used to aid and abet the alien and carpet-bag governments in the Southern: States, the like of which, for rottenness, has never been equalled in the history of our nation, save by the Tammany ring? Why has the party in power thrown out the votes‘of from one to six counties in the States at its own pleasure in order to keep its own partisans in power ? - State rights, forsootht These never have been so flagrantly violated as by Grant and his party. To say now that these broken bones must be mended—these rights maintained, after they have well-nigh destroyed them,and the assumption that such aas§t of hypocrites will, in the future, maintdin these State rights, is simply absurd. It 1s bold effrontery to make such declarations in favor of the very thing they have tried to annihilate. Such culprits are self condemned and will be damned. W G 4th. Grant’s platform asks for encouragement to ship building; and yet his Congress has never dome anything - for American commerce, except to cripple and repress it. American merchants are doing only 36 per cent. of their carrying trade, leaving the remaining 64 per cent. to fall a precious prize to foreign flags. Why has not this President of royal blood blotted out this disgrace? Why is its outrageous record reduced to-a mere pitiful promise concerning our maritime products? Al though the government has done nothing to promote ship building in the past three years, it promises to remedy this neglect in the future, The statements made at the Philadelphia convention, by the lovers of Grant, in regard to the decay of our commerce, is but a confession on the part of the administratior, of its own misgovernment, The President, his Congress and renomination are witnesses of their own delinquencies and self-condemnation from centre to circumference. sth. Grant’s platform demands the protection, in foreign lands, of American cit.izens in all their just rights. But unhappily for him, and unfortunately for them, the government has, in & number of signal and flagrant cases, sufferered our citizens abroad to be outraged and mulcted with: out redress, It is not enough that such a President should promise in a msre campaign document that American citizens, traveling in foreigh countries, shall be protected. He must make restitution for past neglect and answer to the people of ‘the United States for these injuries before he can receive their votes for re-election. ‘These platform framers here, again confess themselves guilty of delinquency, and are self-condemned. ~ ; A

6th. Grant’s Platform demands sympathy toward all ‘foreign nations who are struggling for liberty. This is, no doubt, a bid for the Fenian gnd Cuban votes. But, we ask, did this President show any sympathy to Fenians, Cubans, French, or any others except to the Mormons? And, promising such sympathy in the tuture, does he not thereby acknowledge his neglect of this duty in the past? The perforinance of this duty (if it be a duty) has been left undone. The President and his party are onte more condemned. 7th. Grant’s platform puts forth a platitude concerning the supremacy of the civil over the military power. Why, then' has the President persistently and defiant: ly elevated the military over the civil ? Why did he make unauthorized and illegal use of the mavy in a war-like act against Hayti? Why has he, in direct defiance of a civil statute, surrounded himself with military, instead of civil sec retaries? 'Why, in equal violation of law, is his son, an army . officer, now absent from duty, pumuinfg ‘a_pleasure excursion in a foreign land, from which such an officer, though a President’s son, is forbid‘den by the very regulwﬁnnd of the service? Did not the President’s brother-in-law, a Custom House officer. at .New Orleans, employ & vessel and bayonets with military mensce and threat of blood-shed, to overawe the civil functionaries of a State government ? Q}‘V by did the patriotic Governor of Illino rﬁc the encroachment of this milifary President, who had sent troops into the Prairie State for purposes ‘at war with civil and local ﬁwf“? ! ; ¥y mgu same military despotism now ar-

Tested & large number of white male eitizens 1n North Caroling just on the eve of gu State election, if" it be not to keep. lis own carpet-bag crew in office, and for ‘g:‘l,itical effect? Why bas an attempt n made lately in Congress, and which was partially successfull, to give the President power to suspend the kabeas corpus, to clutch the State machinery of the elective franchise, and to re-elect himself by the aid of martial law, as is now being re: duced to practice in North Carolina, and in the South generally? Grant and his Philadelphia brigade profess that the civil power should be supreme over the.military; but they do not show their faith by their works. For which God or any King ‘would condemn them. ! % Bth. Last, but notleast: Grant’s Platform says that the pablic funds should not be squandered. Why, then, we ask in the name of reason, has his clique in Con gress, by his sanction, regularly and lavishly squandered them? . There are now petitions béfore Congress for land grants torailroad monopolies that would take the last acre; and what may we expect; judg-: ing from the past, if this monied aristoc racy is continued in power? Let any reflecting student of our country’s condition consult the records of the Department of the Interior and scrutinize the following enormous table of recent land grants to the various railroad corporations : :

It is but a blind to deceive the people. It is the clincher of- the self condemnation of this party. Next November we will give them the finishing touch that will forever settle them with kindred spirits. Let these- citations be well pondered. they constitute a series of indictments, .which President Grast’s platform makes 'against his own administration. These are the voluntary and unanswerable concessions of the failures of the party in pow. er, even allowing its best friends to be its Jjudges. 1t is a sad spectacle to see our President put under condemnation by his own party. There remains but one thing for the people to do: that is to clinch the nail of annihilation. | These Hamanites, seeking to hang “old Mordica” Greeley, have erected a gallows more than seventy cubits high; let them ‘be_ hung thereon: until they are politically dead, dead, dead. Hurrah for Greeley and Brown. 8.
