This secures the State for Grant iu November, when at least 8,000 democrats yho voted for Merrimon yilf remain avay from the polls rather than vote for Greeley. The Tammany combination is badly hurt by this defeat." -They counted on tho State - sure by not less than ten thousand majority.' They expected a large negro voto, bat were disappointed. They fired guns in the park over their great victory oi several thousand. and re now the laughing-stock of. the city. J Tne game or brag, bluster, blun and bully weM carried to its highest pitch, but even that failed to win. fi-om this city by tho Greeley fusion to chal lenge yoters, stuff ballot-boxes and manip ulate returns, but tlioir work has been in vain, and North Carolina has gone Repub lican. As that' State has gone, so will go the U:ion in November, unless Greeley is taken from the field and two good Demo crats nominated in place of Greeley and Brown by tho Democrats. The Greeley ticket "s already defeated."' .The same paper speaking of ihe re ported frauds, says : ' : Can Such Things Be ? Is it possible? Has it really come to this ? The papers say. that the Republicans are manipulating the returns in North Carolina! That' the rea son for the dwindling down of the, Greeley Tammany majority is because some of Grant's ma'rshals are " doctoring" the re- r turns and changing oflk-ial fiigures. And all tins m the lace and raider tne eyes and noses of the experts in that line, graduates of Tammany," who -were sent to North Car olina by Greeley on purpose to monopolize that business !

Grant's chaps must change their figures freely, To beat the tricks, hangqs, alterations, ad ditions, and Tammany strategy of the prison convicts sent on by Greeley."
