THURSDAY, MAY 16,1872.

The South Under Republican Rule. Could the exact facts, without exaggeration or coloring, respecting Recondition of Southern States, be presented to the

honest-minded

and pure-hearted masses

of the nation, there would be such an uprising of the people against the abominable misrule, as has never been witnessed in the history of this nation. We do not believe a stage of things as oppressive, as odir»"» dlgr.dlng and dos,ruo«,ve^^ oil wn {iold dear, can be found in tne nis to at on a exists in almost on^half States of this Union.

THE New York Post, an anti-Greeley paper, says: "We are not among those who think the nomination of Mr. Greeley a simple joke. No doubt it is a nomination which has a great many ludicrous things about it. Mr. Greeley has always been a ludicrous object in our politics, but the nomination for the Presidency of the best known editor of the United States means something quite different from a joke, and when parties are drifting helplessly about in an open sea without rudder or compass, it becomes a very serious matter. It is quite time that those who, of whatever party, believe the election of Mr. Greeley would be a serious National calamity, should arouse themselves to the fact that his election is not among the most unlikely things in the world, and the more thoughtful Democrats are trying to create a feeling in the ranks of the party that the nomination of some such men as Adams, William S Groesbeck or Governor Randolph, of

New Jersey, is the best hope of the party. But it is one thing to commend a candidate in the columns of a newspaper and another to get him chosen in convention. When the convention meets a respectable party among the delegates will find itself swamped by mere aumbers, just as was the Liberal Republican Convention."

THE Express has at last found out the position of Hon. D. V. Voorhees on the Greeley question. Now let our cotemporary bo disereet and respect the political opinions and position of its distinguished opponent.—Journal.

Of course the Express has "found out the position of Mr. Voorhees on the Greeley question," and its editors have given proof of their admiration for him. They nominated him for the Presidency yesterday morning and, though "they could not promise him their support," think Mr. V. a model of propriety as a "Bourbon" candidate. For the first time, the Express compliments him. If it be true that he prefers Grant to Greeley, that is all the Express requires. It is meeting Mr. Voorhees' former enemies more than half way. In consideration of such fraternal brotherhood, the Express will be "discreet and respectful to the political opinions and position of its distinguished opponent." The Express and Journal are now cheek by jowl, in the bonds of a new litter of 'possums.

speech

is noticed as follows: From the Louisville Courier-Journal. A CONGRESSMAN'S FOLLY.

Mr. Yoorhees has made a ,very foolish speech. To say that it is in every respec an unwise deliverance is perhaps to say aU of

which can be

said

with perfect

and justice. Mr. Voorhees is not

an idiot. Nor is he the paid servant of the Administration. But he is very far from being what he conceives himself to be, a sagacious political leader and an unselfish patriot. He will have Cfuse to regret what he has'said and there is not a man in the South who will not regret it as soon as he has read it. It is just such leadership as that proposed by Mr. Voorhees—such calculated and pretended passion, such mock heroism and

self-assertion^-which

has

cost us nearly our polical existence. far as the Southern people are concerned, they can not afford it, nor can they afford to tolerate a man who indulges it. Mr. Voorhees mistakes the temper of the South. He does not commend himself to the gratitude, but to the distrust of the Southern people by his reckless and unseasonable demonstration of conceit and folly. He misses the substance of the political situation in order that he may fly at a shadow with which he is rhetorically familiar. He has made a very sad display indeed, and by it has qualified himself to become the double of Stephens, of Georgia, who may be described as a cross between a professional patriot and the periodic sensation-monger. If Mr. Voorhees and Mr. Stephens have a mind to get up aside show concern for the coming Presidential canvass, HO one can hinder them. The Blanton Duncan Democracy of Kentucky will give them encouragement. To this complexion has it come at last, and to that we leave Mr. Voorhees, very much regretting the sacrifice he has made and not trusting ourselves to consider very minutely what may be his actual motives. Of course we do not pretend to discourage the freedom he has exercised in talking out of meeting. This is all right. We exercise the same freedom in stigmatizing it, and we do this with the more alacrity because the matter of his speech seems to us, hardly less than the occasion, to deserve the promptest rebuke from the Southern press.

The New York Democracy Endorse Mr. Greeley. Yesterday the Democracy of New York, in their State Convention, passed the following resolution, which virtually instructs their delegates to the Baltimore Convention to vote for Horace Greeley

Resolved, That the recent declaration of political principles by thaconvention of Cincinnati, is evidence of the progress of public opinion toward sound and wholesome views of government that we believe all patriotic citizens may unite on that platform for the purpose of securing

THE Herald accounts for Voorhees' attack on Greeley by an interview between him and Senator Conkling, the

That looks brazen-faced and affair was premeditated, is further evi hypocritical.

denced by the fact that Voorhees could not have made such a speech, brimming full of historical allusions, without studied preparation, and further by the fact that he acknowledged to a friend tonight, 'I have made this thing a study I lay awake thinking about it so long, that I dreamed of it last night I don't think I have made a mistake, but I feel that I have done my duty.'

Bigotry and Ignorance.

At the Methodist General Conference at Brooklyn, New York, yesterday, a memorial was read, signed by H. Cramm and others, of Gernesse county, New York, asking the conference to take such action as to induce ministers of the church to withdraw from the "unholy, unchristian and idolatious society of Free Masons." Great laughter was provoked by various expressions in the petition. Under the rule, it was referred to the Committee on the State of the Church. Brother Cramm's notions have gone out of date long ago.

THE Indianapolis Journal is in a witty mood over Mr. Voorhees' late demonstration. That paper thus pleads for our member of Congress: "We beg the Cincinnati Enquirer and other Greeley papers, to deal gently with Mr. Voorhees while he is in the tantrums. He has bad spells, occasionally, at Washington, and, while out of sorts, talks agreat deal with his mouth, sparing neither friend or foe." And how should a man talk but with his mouth Daniel has a good opening in his face for making an eloquent speech, though his head is not as cool as it might be. His friends regfet this.

GRANT was once a Democrat, and is probably ashamed of the despotic part he has been cempeiled to play. Greeley is an enemy to States' rights from choice, from convictions of duty.—Journal.

That's not complimentary to General Grant. What authority has the Journal for saying that "Grant is prohably ashamed of the despotic part, he has been compelled to play?" Was that feet learned at the White House, or was' it simply communicated by Secretary Robeson?"

Miss NELLIE GRANT has been presented to Queen Victoria, whereupon the London limes says: "The lady of highest place in America has thus commenced her acquaintance with England aiid the English It may be fortunate

DEMOCRAT.

Editor of Terre Haute Gazette: SIB :—The prospect for Grant is looming up every hour. The Tall Sycamore of the Wabash, it was said on the floor of Congress, had been recently visiting the White House on various occasions. This was apd is ominous of something more than usual. Dan recognizes the fact that all which ever split Democrats, and Republicans in the West is settled forever. Hence the tomahawk^is now buried, and we hope forever. Now, sir, with Grant for President and Voorhees for Vice President, where is there any show for Greeley? You know the Democracy will all flock to the standard borne by Mr. Voorhees. Why not then yield a hearty support to the claims of your neighbor and life-long personal friend Hurrah, hurrah for Grant and Voorhees!

AN OLD-LINE REPUBLICAN.

THE Lawrence, (Kan.) Journal speaks of Dan. Voorhees as the representative of the creek-bottom and pokeberry Democracy.

Editorial Notices are so common that it is almost impossible for an editor to express his honest opinion of any article without being suspected of interested motives. This fact, however, shall not deter us from saying what we think of a new addition to the Materia Medica to which our atteution has been recently directed. We refer to DR. J. WALKER'S

CALIFORNIA

VINEGAR BITTEKS, a reme

dy which is making its way into more families just now than all the othei advertised medicines put together. There seems to be no question about the potency of its tonic and alterative properties, while it possesses the great negative recommendation of containing neither alcohol nor mineral poison. That it is a specific for Indigestion, Billiousness, Constipation, and many complaints of nervous origin, we have reason to know and we are assured on good authority that as a general invigorant, regulating and purifying medicine, it has no equal, It is stated that its ingredients, (obtained from the wilds of California,) are new to tbe medical world and its extraordinary effects certainly warrant the conclusion that it is a compound of agents hitherto unknown. If popularity is auy criterion, there can be no doubt of the efficiency of of the VINEGAR BITTERS, for the sale of the article is immense and continually increasing.

A Sad Falling Out.—It is indeed a sad falling out when, after years of the closest intimacy, the hair parts company with the head. Fortunately the lamentable separation may be easily prevented and the twain more closely united than ever by a timely and systematic use of LYON'S KATHAIRON, the most potent invigorant of the hair and promoter of its growth and beauty known to modern pharmacy. It completely obviates the dry and parched condition of the roots of the hair, which is preliminary to its coming out, by supplying the precise degree of moisture requisite to its preservation iu a healthy state. It is the only true dissolvent and evaporant of dandruff and other impurities of the scalp, whose presence is injurious to the hair. As a beautifier of the head the Kathairon has no equal. It not only increases the quantity of the hair, but improves its quality immediately, imparting a lustrous appearance and silky texture which are exceedingly attractive.

CAEPETS.

AGAIN VICTOllIOUS

Our recent onslaught upon the Carpet trade caused a decided sensation. We have never seen a more complete success. Within 24 hours after we had announced our prices to the public, our Carpet room was crowded with customers, and each week our sales of these goods have continued to increase.

It is the Hit Bird that Flutters!

This accounts for the fluttering among our competitors. They got their backs up at once and rushed into print to tell the people that they had reduced their Carpets to the price of ours. The people answered, "We don't believe you, aud even if you have, Foster Brothers compelled you to lower your prices, or you would never have done it. We propose to «ive our patronage to the merchants whose prices are so low that they have never had to reduce them to meet the prices of other stores."

THE "AMBULACE RIDER" BACKED DOWN!

HE MAKES A\ INGLORIOUS FIZZLE!

His "Hand Loom" and "Family" Carpets Prove to be a Humbug!

Knowing, as we did, that his "Hand Loom" Carpets, for which he was charging $1.40 aud $1.50, were exactly the goods that were selling at $1.20 and $1.25, and that hisBO-called "Family" Carpets at $1.00 were the same as our 85c goods, we submitted to him four distinct challenges on the subject, which he has not dared to accept.

The brief campaign of the past few weeks has placed us

AT THE HEAD OF THE CARPET TRADE!

WE PROPOSE TO KEEP THE LEAD!

We shall do it by offering to the public only well known brands of Carpets, and by always representing our goods to be just what they are. As we shall keep no makes of Carpets to which the manufacturers are ashamed to put their names, it will never become necessary for us to dub any of them "Finger Looms" or "Family Frauds."
