Our disaster may be attributed entire
ly to such men as are described in the
following article—
The Silver Greys.—Frank Granger
cubbed the “ nationals” with the name
of “ Silver Greys,” in his speech, on the
opening of the Utica Convention. The
Buffalo Republic says that at the Seward
ratification meeting in that city on Sat
urday last, Seth C. Hawley, Esq., gave
the history of this appellation as fol
lows :
During the war a large number of ex
empts, who were permitted to remain at
home and take care of the women and
children, were called “ silver greys,” and
he presumed, Mr. Granger, in applying
the name to a portion of the Whig party,
intended it for that class, who, when
there was a close fight with the Demo
crats, staid at home with the women and
children.
