aud in Septémber of the same year we find Greeley sending secret circu: tara to the Governors of the loyal states in which he attempted to procure the withdrawal of Limccin asa d@p@idete, and the substitution of some other man. These facts in relation. to Greeley's course are proved by his own letters and the public documents, authority whivh tliere is ’ no disputing. ‘They show that he is erratic, easily flattered, and entirely unfit to be trusted in the -administration of the. Government. Under polidy wauld be as uncertain as the weather, and would soon loose the respect of the people and its influence abroad. Greeley is no niore fit for the head of the nation thana rovlict is for the light of thé Glenbrook Park Jockey Club Races.“On Saturday last the first day's racing, under the management of the Jookey Club, took place at Glenbrook Park,.The weather was splendid and the attendance very good.

Republicans desire to fill up the. Johnny Lamertine, mare ‘Sallie’. This purse was for $10, the riders being changed by the judges, and the last horse out to win the purse. Horace Greeley’ behaved badly from the start, requiring two or three aids to get him to the score. The start was good, the three horses getting off well together, and Horace trailing in the rear, his rider whipping him across the shoulders, as the animal objected to any other urging, and was soon.out of the race. ‘‘Sallie’’ came ‘in first, mule second, and When the ‘last . ’ horse crossed the score Greeley had just reached the half-mile pode, aud he came in in about 7) minutes. The judges declared that the thing was ‘‘put up,” but the owner offered to bet $250 that no man on the ground couldtake’ Greeley”and make better time than he did in the race. The bet was not taken which was third. © sion of the purse.

It is kind in them, nevertheless, that they should be ready to ay they are willing to forgive the North for doing what they did themselves, provided the North would send to the rear Grant and other reminders of Union triwmphs, and let Jeff.
