CINCINNATI, September 21.-At various
points on the route, between Columbus
and Cincinnati, the train Btopped, and
brief speeches wore made by Mr. Gree?
ley. A great crowd met him at X mia,
where be spoke as follows: I think I am
somewhat known to most of yon, and
you can testify where, in struggles past,
where, in life-long compromise with pro
slavery ascendancy, my voice was not
raised on the side of emancipation and
liberty. [Applause. J Those days have
passed, and new days have come. I re
joio9 that I was with most of you in
making this a land of impartial freedom.
If we had heard that all men were to be
free, except 400 or 500. we should have
felt that our triumph was incomplete.
So I stand this day, demanding that
there shall bo DO disfranchised people,
black or white, ia this country; [ap?
plause] but that the genius of universal
liberty shall eufold nuder its mantle the
whole American people. That is my
platform, and all of it; that our victory
as Unionists, as lovers of impartial
liberty, being complete, there shall be
no man deprived of his natural rights,
when this struggle shall he ended. We
demand that the capstone be placed OD
the temple of liberty by the enfranchise
mont of the lost mao who now suffers
nuder the ban of proscription. Such is
my purpose; such is the ground whereon
I staad; as such, I commend it to all
those who, ia old time, the darker time,
. timo of depression, straggled with me
on the side of liberty. 1 Great Cheer?
ing.]

WASHINGTON, September 21-Evening.
The Bureau of Justice is considering the
eligibility of James A. Lee, a colored
alien, nominated in Mississippi as Presi?
dential elector, to cast a vote in the
Electoral College. The decision will
probably be that he must have been
naturalized since the ratification of the
fourteenth amendment to make his vote
volid. The question was first asked of
the Attorney-General, who declined to
answer, but subsequently, through direc?
tion of the President, the law was inves?
tigated. The question is regarded im?
portant in Radical circles, as the rejec?
tion of Lee's voto might defeat Grant's
election.
The St fir says: It is stated that the
President has refused to purdon certain
Ku Klux prisoners in tho Albany peni?
tentiary who had been recommended for
executive clemency, because of a protest
coming from the district whore the cri?
minals were convicted, from those who
would be most endangered by the re?
lease. The character of most of the con?
victs is very bad. Some of them are ig?
norant, lawless, desperate men, who, it
is believed, would not hesitate to wreak
their vengeance npon all who testified
against them.

CINCINNATI, September 21-Evoniug.
Greeley was received at tbe Chamber of
Commerce, at noon to-day, with great
applause. When quiet was restored, he
spoke os follows:
MK. PBESIDENT AND GENTLEMEN OF
THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE: xon will do
me the justice to believe ti at I would
not have chosen to appear before you as
aa instructor; for so it will seem to you,
with regard to matters which you must
understand better perhaps than I. I am
here beoause I am asked to be here, and
being here, I propose to make to you a
few suggestions, which I trust will have
a praotioal bearing. I fully comprehend
that you are business men; and that th it
is a business hour; and that whatever ie
said by me at any rate must bo veri
brief. To plunge at once, then, inte
the middle cf the subjeot, I nm oue ol
those who do not feel entirely satisfied
with thu financial and commercial coudi
tiou and prospects of onr country. 1
realize that we have just reaped ven
abundant harvests, and that these ari
very important elements of our com
meroial prosperity. I realizo that w
have currreuoy quite abundant in itt
volume and acceptable at par over tin
larger portion of our country. We havi
many elements of strength, and yet thor
soems to be also elements or portent
of weakness, which ought not to bi
passed over in silence. You wil
bear me witness thut, for the las
two or three years, at least, we hav
heard more, felt moro, suffered more
of commercial collapses, I might sa;
commercial difficulty, from the opera
tiona ot what are properly called "rings,
than ever before in the history of this
and, I think, in the history of unj
country. Corners in wheat, corners i
oats, corners in pork, [great laughter,
corners in gold, corners in stock, nnd s
on, and so on. Now, gentlemen, I ai
not hero to say that this partioalc
olique, which tried to force up prioes, c
that opposite olique, which triod to fore
them down, was right or wrong, in an
instance. I am not sufficiently familit
to judge. What I say, and think yo
must believe with me, ls, that these ei
hibitious, thoHo ebullitions, t re symj
toms of financial weakness, if tn
financial disease. They aro inciden
which are not likely to occur in a pe
fcotly Bound and healthy condition <
the commercial business and currency <
the country. Well, we get on wit
them as well as we can; or, rather, v
choose one uway, and another soon pr
sents itself, and every now and then, i
the great commercial centre where n
work bas been carried on, there comes
superior corner-a kind of a Black Fi
day, or something that threatens coi
meroial disaster-general disaster; ai
theu appears tho Secretary of tho? Tro
sary, with his boru of plenty, and I
lets loose something or other. He eith
buys stock or he sells gold, or he do
both, aud he puts us at ease for a litl
time again. Now, I am not here to d
oide that that is not the best he can d
I don't know about that. I do not i
eist that the business of the count
ought not to be in a condition to requi
this continual application of somethii
artificial, something lot down from aboi
that there should be a state of thin
wherein business men and business in
rests should take care of themselves, a
not require the continual interrupt!
of some public authority, in such a d
tatorial form. Some men are swamp
when he appears; other men are relievi
perhaps the greatest good to the great
number ia accomplished, for aught
know. I want to see a state of thit
where the Government is not continue
oalled upon to help us out. lt remit
me of a state of things that existed
my earlier days, when every once
a while Nicholas Biddle was oalled
Wall street, in about the same oapac
that the Secretary of the Treasury
pow, to put his shoulder to the whi
and lift us out of some catastrophe;
?B out of some mire, or ward off so
catastrophe. I think we ought to
able, that you, gentlemen, ought to
able, to devine the ways and means,
only of getting as out of our partial
corner, but preventing corners
future; rendering them itnpoisil
or, at all eveuts, disastrous to tl
contrivers. Now, I am . supposed
many persons to bo a man of isms
whatever is the word; a man of hobl
on this eubjoet. Some meu imagine (
I am very furious in the demand of
mediate resumption of specie pay me
My opinion was, years ago, and I ?:
seen no reason to change it, that w
wo had $125,000,000 in the Truasi
mainly gold, and when we had a reve
exceeding the necessary outlays of
Treasury by more thau $100.000,000
annum, that we were thea in a oondt
to resume specie payments. That, if
Government had chosen to say, '
will resume; we will take our green ba
und we will receive them os gold,"
there would bavo been no difficult
making that resumption. Under
state of things, I have seen the Bau!
England rename. I have known bi
of our country to resumo with very a
smaller proportion of available usse
liabilities than the Treasury of
United States had at that time; so
it seemed to me to be a perfectly feat
thing; but we did not resume, rm
because the people-I mean tho busi
people-did not want to resume;
that, in my judgment, is the reason
will op?rate just as well now, a :
two years or tour years boneo, as it*
rated theu. It is my judgment tba
are not likely to resume in any nea
riod of time. Then, I say, if we
to resume, wo need all the reve
that we bad then, and wo o
to have husbanded them carel
But if we were not, as you and I k
to resume for along time to oome, tl
seems to me a business polioy wa
quired of the Government; that :
pay out all its gold, all its treasun
duce its debt by so much, stop the
rest, and leave the gold and curren
the hands of tho business men, in
of hoarding it up iu tho Treusur
make one of - these periodical-[The
OOUCIUB?OU of this sentenoo was drowned
by applause.] But I nm uot a dog?
matist. I do not protend to present this
as u matured and settled conclusion.
What I do hero ask this ohamber to
originate is, an inquiry and investiga?
tion, by meu of business and capital, as
to whero the proper remedy for these
disorders, of which I speak, is to be
found. _ Lot us bo calm about it.
Lot us investigate slowly and carefully;
and let the businesBB men of the coun?
try come to a conclusion us to tho pro?
per remedy; not for a particular dis ord* r
to-day; bat something which shall bo a
protection against a periodical re-occur
j renee of these disorders. This is what
I would have. Business mea of this
country, do - look at the matter as a
disease, not at ono particular symptom;
and determiue just whut and where is
thc romedy. I veuture to say if men
who, composing a chamber like this,
will agree upon what that remedy is,
they can bavo behind them the press of
the country, with scarcely un exception,
and the public sentiment of thooouutry;
and whutover shall seem to them, after
mature d?lib?ration, after careful dis?
cussion, the true cure for our financial
disorders and dangers, will be accepted
by the generalfjudgment of tho country,
and carried into effect. This is ali, gen?
tlemen, and with these few remarks, I
thauk you for your patient attention.
[Great applause.]

A MYSTERIODB DEATH.-Tho Jackson?
ville (Fla.) Union, of the 18tb inst., has
the foliowiug aooonnt of the mysterious
death of a former citizen of Charleston:
Early last Tuesday morning it waa
learned that the body of Mr. John T.
Hcnerey had been found floating in the
St. John's River, noar the railroad wharf,
with the whole of his face blown in and
a largo hole through the top of his head.
Mr. Heneroy and family-consisting
of a wife and three daughters-came to
this city three year? ago from Charles?
ton, S. C., where he had spent about
twenty-five years of his lifo. Mr. Hene
rey was a native of Beaufort, S. C., aud
was about forty-five years of age.
On Monday morning last the deceased
left his home in LaVilla about 4 o'clock,
taking with him bis Spencer rifle, pistol
aud cartridges. He said nothing to hit
family, and they thought that he wac
geing to his faun HUI OHS thu river, as wac
often his custom. Nothing more WUE
heard or seen of him pntil Tuesday
morning, when his floating body wat
discovered by tho mate of the schoouei
Guy R. Phelps, then moored to the rail
road wharf. Upon the discovery of th?
corpse, it was hauled upon some stope
leading to the wharf by Joseph Morzyck,
of this city, and others.
About 5 o'clock Monday morning a
man's hat, coat and gun had been fount
upon a piece of timber which projeotuc
over the river from a pile of lumber oi
thu wharf, by the mate of the sohoone:
H. A. Hunt, also moored at tho earn?
wharf. Connecting all the above facts, i
was the universal conclusion that the lib
of Mr. Henerey had been taken by hi.
own hands.
There is no doubt as to the identity o
tho body, although tho faco was fearfully
mangled and shot away, as the initials J
T. li. were tatooed upon ono arm ii
blue ink, while an eagle was stained upoi
the other. From the appearance of th
wound, the position of the hat, coat um
gun, the natural inferenco drawn is, tba
Mr. Hcnerey took off bis hat and coat
seated himself upon tho projecting tim
ber, with his back towards the water
placed the stock of the rifle upon th
timber, and with the muzzle placed a
his mouth, pulled the trigger, am
launched his soul into eternity.
The only really mysterious thing i
connection with this homicide is, thal
although from the positiou of the weal
iug apparel and gun, the shot most hav
been fired within three rods of th
schooner H. A. Hunt, no ono heard th
report.
The deceased has gained his living b
plying bis trade as a mason and bric!
layer, and owns considerable property
He bore an irreproachable character, an
was kind and affectionate to his famihj
The cans? of his death is supposed to h
depression of spirits.
A short time ago Mr. Hen ry pu
chased some land across the river, froi
which he expected a rioh rev. uni, bat wi
disappointed, having spent cousiderabl
money, and got no return. His tran
actions became Bomewhat embarrasse;
his health bogan to fail and be began 1
grow morbid. Only a short time beioi
his death he was beard to say that 1
would kill himself, as he could not bei
the weight of his troubles. A coronet
inquest was held by Justice Durkee, i
the wharf, and tho following verdict wi
rendered:
..That tho said John T. Heneroy, b
tween tho hours of 4 and G o'clock, c
tho morning of Septembor 19, 1872, c
tho railroad wharf in Jacksonville, Flu
with a Spencer carbine, loaded with bi
and cartridge, which ho then and the:
had and held, inflicted upon bimse
either by accident or design, a mort
wound by shooting himself with sa
carbine, loaded as aforesaid, in tl
mouth and front part of tho face."
DISTRESSING.-Last Saturday, novel
children wero playing in tho yard of t
Seventh Street Congregational Churc
in Cincinnati, and oue of thom, a Uti
five or six year old eon of the sexton, w
induced to descend to tho bottom of
dry cistern. After he got to tho botte
bis little playfellows called to him th
.'now ho was shut down forever," a!
closed tho cap over him for two or tin
miaules. Wheu ho was taken out it w
discovered that ho had lost his reas
from fright. Tho distressed mother,
is said, is crazed in consequence.
They ore at it again. The poor c

GRANT'S FRIENDSHIP FOR THE SOOTH -
On the 23d of March, 1871, Preeident
Grant amit a special message to the
House of R'/prosoutatives, at Washing?
ton, a?irining "that a condition of affairs
now exists in some parts of the Union
rendering life and property insecure."
Congress granted tho special legislation
sought in that message, and straightway
the President places certain Counties in
some of the Southern States under mar?
tial law, and institutes Ku Klux investi?
gations in others. The legitimate infe?
rence of every capitalist at the North and
in Europe from this official declaration
of tho highest officer in the Government
of the United States is, that "life and
property" in the Southern States is inse?
cure. This official declaration stands
upon record oncontradicted, with all the
authority of the solemn official sanction
of thc Pretddeut of the United States to
verify it. What Northern capitalist,
with this message staring bim in the
face, would invest his capital in the
South unless the risk should be fully
covered by the rate and made amply se
cure? If Northern capitalists will shun
auch investments, much more English or
German. The only protest which the
South can enter against this calumny,
cruelly severe upon its citizens in their
struggle for recuperation, is to voto
against Grant, aud for peace and r?con?
ciliation, and Horace Greeley, who is
known all over Europe and throughout
the North for his life-long antagonism to
slavery and the South, but who now
comes forward for peace ami reconcilia?
tion, "to clasp hands across the bloody
chasm"-wheo Boutwell, Grant's right
arm, spurns reconciliation.

FORETELLING THE WEATHER.-Some
interesting ideas concerning the cause of
earthquakes and tidal waves, of storms,
and in general what we may call tho phi?
losophy of the weather, are advanced by
Mr. F. Li. Capen, of the American
Meteorological Society. Mr. Capen bas
devoted muny years to incessant watch?
ing of the weather, and in noting its
various phenomena. He thinks he has
found the key to tho whole meteorologi?
cal system of the globe. So confident is
he of the verifications, already obtained,
of the principles which he has finally
adopted, that he has accepted from
General Myers, chief of the Signal Bu?
reau, a proposition to submit his theory
to an extraordinary test. He desires
Government aid in the prosecution of
his work of investigation; and to test the
reality of what he behoves he has already
discovered, he accepts a proposition to
foretell the weather seven days in ad?
vance; and ho offers to continue this
seven-day test for a time long enough to
satisfy the Government of the truth of
his principles.
The Grand River and Peton Sioux had
a very big talk with Secretary Delano
yesterday. The gist of it all was that
they wunted arms and ammunition, and
wanted them quickly. The eloquence
of the chiefs rejoicing in the euphonious
appellations of "Two Bears," "Medicine
Bear," "Bloody Mouth," "Grass,"
"Afraid of the Bear," "Black Eye," and
"The Man that Packs the Eagle," was
undoubtedly overpowering, and com?
pelled the Secretary to promise them a
personal interview with the G rent Father
himself.
BOUND FOR A LAND OF EQUALITY -
880 French Communists, convicted of
various outrages against life and proper?
ty, were embarked at Breat yesterday in
penal deportation to tho couviot settle
mont in New Oeledonia. Captain Cook
found the island inhabited by a popula?
tion of the Papuan negro race when he
discovered it, in 1774. If any of their
descendants remain they will, no doubt,
fraternize agreeably with the would-be
reformers of society and publio morals
in exile from Franco.
Miss Clara Louise Kellogg was given a
brilliant reception on the occasion of her
return from Europe, at the Arcadian
