WEDNESDAY ..... , . JULY 1^
THANK OOI) FOR SUNDAY.
Now God be thanked! that he haa given—
Men! boon to eaint and einner—
A dav of rest —one day in seven
Wliere toil is not the winner;
Kent for the tired and jaded brain.
The wearied hand on Sunday.
That they might gather Htrength again
For toil renewed on Monday.
The merchant iu his counting-room.
The clerk o’er desk and ledger,
The artisan at forge and loom.
The ditcher and the hedger
The laborer, who must toil and alave
From early dawn on Monday
Until the week sinks in its grave.
All cry: -'Thank God for Sunday!”
The day that lifts the w eighty chain
Which all the week bath bound us;
That respite gives to heart and brain,
From thousand caret around ns ;
That in the toilsome march of life
So bids us take, for one day,
Rest from the battle and strife.
Oh! God be thanked for Sunday ’
If thus by ail one day of rest
He hailed, as respite solely.
How to the Christian, doubly blest.
Mnat be the Sabbath holy ;
Ae. in faith s light, he lifts his eyes
To the bright world where, one day
He longs to spend beyond the skies,
Ablest eternal Sunday!
TRUST ONE ANOTHER.
Look into tout brother’s eyes, man,
And bid him read your own :
One half the strife of human life
Is Iforn of guile alone!
Deceit creates full half our hates.
And half our love it slays ;
Look in each other s eyes. men.
And meet each other’s gaze.
Pardon yonr brother’s faults, man,
And ask that he forgive,
Could human sin no pardon win,
No mortal soul might live.
No need of Heaven were none forgiven.
For none would reach its doors.
Pardon your brother’s faults, man,
And bid him pardon yours.
Feel for your brother’s grief, man.
No heart is safe from woe.
Though lips and eyes full oft deny,
The sorrowing weight below,
A gentle wile, a pitying Hmile,
May sweetest balm impart.
Feel for vour brother's grief, man,
And you may win his heart.
Stand by year brother's side, man,
And bid him clasp your hand,
To him he just, and yield the trust
That you from him demand.
How simply wise, w ith soul and eyes.
To trust, and still be true
Do to those, we love. man.
What we would have them do,
RAINBOW OF GOLD.
If you get to the foot of a rainbow before it
fade away you will find a bushel of gold.”—Lk-
OK.NI> OF FaIBY LoVJC.
When I was a child T was solemn!}' told,
When the rainbow appeared in the sky.
That under its foot was a bushel of gola,
That any could get would they try ;
So 1 ran where the splendor came down to the
ground.
Hut it fleeted as fast as I ran.
And with all of my search it was nothing I
found :
Yet I’m doing the same aH a man.
There's the rainbow of love, when the affec
tions are young.
The brightest, we think of the**lot;
We followers find it a thing of the tongue.
Or a foolish abstraction of thought.
There’s the rainbow of fame, with its amaranth
crown ;
' We chase it in ominous strifo,
We reach where its foot so enticing came
And find we have wasted in life.
Hope’s rainlmwH are ever abroad in the air,
Alluring us fools to pursue.
We follow and follow, and find nothing there,
Save a sprinkling of glittering dew.
Earth’s rainbows of promise, so fair to the sight,
Are hut fictions at best of the mind;
Their gleams give at most unsubstantial do
light,
They fade and leave nothing behind.
Then what of the rainbow that gleams beyond
death ;
Then promise hereafter! Who is there can
tell
If. after the parting of body and breath,
Ho is sure under that rainbow all will bo
well ?
Gan be certain it is the last bow to allure
The oiio that stoops down oil the bushel of
gold,
The g<*ld hk at last shall possess? Who is
sure ?
Alas ! ’tis & secret we cannot unfold.
A FEW MORE MORNINGS.
A few fkore mornings ; yet a few more moni
tor
We ll watch tho light’s low dawning, dull and
gray;
A few more mominga we’ll faintly murmur
To those who love us. “ Tis our latest day.”
From weary brows will fall the life worn mask.
I'rom tired hands will drop tho half done
task.
A few more morning, but a few more morn-
UlgH

We longed tor, toiled for all our Hooting hoivrn.
The crown of crowns that never could be

A few more mornings ! Amidst distant dawn

1 hey who come after »oi auiuy sav,
“ Where now th<» tabor of those gone before

Tho recompense of all their burdened day ?
They are not missed where they were always

And life moves on as if they had not been.”
A few more mornings ! stilled will bo forever
The hearts that thrill to-day with Love’s
dear pain.
All suffering desire all done the long en

The far-out yearning of the lofty brain,
There’ll bo in the low house where wo lie down
No love ! no hale ! no dream of high re

A few more mornings ! ’Twill all bo told—ouj

Ho sweet, so brief. Why war with change

Why cry for love ? Why spend our strength

Why pray to God with prayer importunate ?

Like leafy shadows on the Hummer grass.
A few more mornings and then again in

The earth will wear tho splendor of her

While we within tho universe of spirits
Will wander some where among viewless

We still must see our human home is fair
Where’er it be in all the heaven of air ;
Wondrous must he God's gift to compensate
For all we miss within our human fate.
WHICH SH ALL IT UK f>
What parent 'h heart will not he touched by
the exipiitsito pathos of its meaning, and the
purity of thought anil eentiment pervading
every line of the following beautiful poem :
Which uliall it he ? Which ehall it he ?
1 looked at John, and John looked at me—
Lear, patient John, who loved me yet.
Ah w ell an though my locks were jet—
And when I film that 1 must speak.
My voice sounds low and weak.
"Tell me again what Hubert said."
This is his letter: "1 w ill give
A house and lands while you shall live,
If in return, from out your seven,
A child to me for aye is given."
I looked at John s old garments w orn.
And thought of all he had homo
(if poverty, aud want, and care.
Which 1. though williug. could not share.
I thought of seven mouths to feed.
Os seven little children's need.
And then of this: "Come. John," said I.
"We ll choose among them as they lie
Asleep." So. hand in hand,
Lear John and I surveyed our baud.
First to the cradle lightly stopped.
Whore Lilian, the baby, slept
Her glory gainst the pillow white.
Softly her lather stooped to lay
His rough hand in loving way.
W hen dream or whisper made her stir.
And huskily he said, "Not her, not her."
We knelt Vvcside the trundle-bed.
And one long ray of lamp-light shed
Across the boyish faces there
In dreams so pitiful and fair.
1 saw on James' rough, red cheek a tear
tTulriad. "lie's hut a baby, too," said I.
And kissed him as we hurried by.
l'ale. patient Kobie's angel face.
Nay. not for a thousand crowns not him."
We whispered, while our eyes were dim.
Poor Lick, had Lick, our wayward son
Turbulent, restless, idle one’,
ianhe be spared ? Nay. He who gave
Kids us befriend him to the grave •
Only a mother's love can he
Patient enough for such as lie.
"And so." said John. "1 would not dare
To send him from her loviug care."
Then stole we softly up above,
And knelt by Mary, child of love ;
Quite suddenly he lifted up a curl that lay
Across her cheek in willful way.
And shook his head. "Nay, love, uot thee."
The while my heart heat t odibly.
Only one more, our eldest lad.
Tmstv and truthful, good and glad,
So like Ins father—" No. John. no.
I cannot, will uot lei him go."
So we wrote in a courteous way.
" e could uot give one child a wav.
Happy in truth that not one face
Is missed from its accustomed place,
thankful to work for all the seven.
Trusting the rest to One in heaven.

WASHrstiTox, Julyß, noon.—Delegate- '
freighted trains, late on schedule, have j
reached Baltimore in safety.
The question of endorsement vermin \
nomination of the Cincinnati nominees !
is confined to the Ohio, Missouri and j
Pennsylvania delegations.
The New Yolk delegation are divided, !
and have separate headquarters. Oth
erwise, the delegations seem unanimous,
mostly for Greeley and a nomination
under the regular two-thirds rule.
Sharp contests are progressing over
the honor of the temporary and perma
nent chairmanships. Virginia will prob
ably have the temporary and Pennsyl
vania the permanent President.
It is estimated that God delegates have
been iustmeted to vote for Greeley, but
they are divided on the question of nomi
nation or endorsement. The delegates
in opposition to Greeley are estimated
at 41.
A number of Greeley’s friends, in
cluding John Cochran, are here.
Trains from all directions come jam
med.
Baltimore, July 8, night.—The Na
tional Democratic Committee unani
mously elected Thomas Jefferson Ran
doplph, of Virginia, temporary Chair
man, amlF. O. Prince, of Massachusetts,
temporary Secretary of the Convention.
Nearly all the delegations are full.
Over six hundred delegates have regis
tered. The theme to-day is a straight
nomination or simply endorsement of
the Cincinnati nominees.
A meeting of bolters was held at the
Maryland Institute to-day. About two
hundred were present, the majority of
whom wire speculators. There were
about twenty-live Hi/non puren who will
not support Greeley if nominated.
Joseph Pv. Flanders presided. Among
those present were Blanton Duncan, of
Kentucky; Joseph Slidles and William
White, of Illinois; Henry Sherwood, of
Connecticut, Win. Reed, of Virginia.
The bolt was a failure.
The interior of the Opera House,
where the Convention will meet, has been
decorated in a handsome manner. The
circles have been beautifully festooned
with flags and evergreens, while sus
pended between the gaily painted
columns whieli support the galleries are
the coats of arms of each State. On the
private box facing the east is placed a
line portrait of General Washington, and
on the box facing the west is the por
trait of General Jackson, and over this
box is the portrait of Van Buron, and on
the opposite side that of Henry Clay.
The stage has been divested of its
Scenery, and will be enclosed on two
sides and rear with woodland scenes,
which some facetious persons declare is
intended to represent the forests of Chap
paqua.
It, will be necessary to use the dome
lights and reflectors in order to throw
sufficient light upon the body of the
House, and the chandeliers under the
balcony circle will also he used, as well
as the gas jets over the stage. With
that much artificial light, and aided by
the front windows, it is supposed there
will be no trouble on this score, while
the mellowing effect of combined sun
light, and gas-light, mingled with the
rich hues of the trimming, will have a
beautiful effect.
A scenic representation in keeping
with the character of Mr. Greeley lias
been prepared, ainl will he presented to
the Convention as soon as the endorse*
moot, of Mr. Greeley has been made by
the Convention.
lit the lobbies of the Opera House
will be a great, profusion of potted plants
and flowers and small cypress trees,
and a large number of valuable oil
paintings.
The, Grand Triumphal Arch in front
of Uii> Opera House is almost completed,
and will boa counterpart of the tri
umphal arch once the pride of Paris.
It will bo lavishly adorned with flags
and evergreens, and have upon its face
the famous words of McMahon : “Every
mountain has sent forth its rill and
every valley its stream, and 10, the ava
lanche is hero.” Outlie east, and west
side of the arch will be the words ;
'‘Democratic National Convention, 1872.”
Over the main entrance of the theatre
nearest Eulaw street is the Democratic
legem 1, the words of Gen. Jackson :
“The .Constitution is still the object of
our reverence, the bond of our Union,
our deft use in danger, the source of our
prosperity in peace.” Over the entrance
nearest Howard street is the following
motto from Thomas Jefferson : “The
whole art of government consists in the
art of being honest.”
The other mottoes, on the front of the
bnihi-'.v, •0 , 0.. the lli.-.1, story, are four
quotations from Washington’s farewell
address:
“'(■have already intimated to you the
dangers of parties in the State founded
on geographical discriminations ; lot me
now w arn you against the baneful effects
of the spirit of party generally.
“The spirit of eucroachment tends to
consolidate the powers of all tho depart
ments in one, and thus create, under
whatever form of government, a real
despotism.
‘•Likewise avoid the neeessityof those
overgrown military establishments which,
under any form of government, are to
he regarded as particularly hostile to re
publican liberty :
“That yonr union and brotherly
affection may lie perpetuated; that
the free Constitution, which is the
work of your hands, may be sacredly
maintained ; that its administration in
every department may’ be stamped with
wisdom and virtue.”

Bai/i (MORE. Julynoon. —Lust,evening
was devoted to meetings of delegations
for organizations and speech making at
several places in the city.
The principal hotels are densely packed
and the private houses are open to per
sonal friends.
The situation at midnight was un
changed; eviilontlya large majority favor
nomination, though it is still the para
mount theme.
Mr. Sainbale, of Louisiana, with six
friends, bolted the bolters' preliminary
meeting yesterday.
Louisiana, California, Minnesota, Ne
vada, New Jersey and Oregon were not
represented in the meeting of the
National Committee yesterday.
The Pennsylvania delegation compro
mised by the following resolution:
sotevd, That the Chairman be in
structed to east, the vote of this delega
tion for candidates for President and
Vice-President as each delegate shall
direct, and that he be authorized, when
two-thirds of the Convention shall have
voted fill' a candidate, in the name of
the united delegation, to move to make ,
such nomination unanimous."
The Georgia delegation is unanimous |
for Greeley, with some modifications,
and additions to the Cincinnati platform, j
The Louisiana delegation has but one j
straight out nomination man. but will
support Greeley if the Convention norni- j
nates him. j
The Mississippi delegation resolved to
coincide with a majority of the Couven-i
tiou, whatever its action may be.
Delaware will vote from first to last
for a straight Democrat.
Calling the Convention to order, Mr.
Belmont said :
Qentl* men of the Convention :
It is again my privilege to welcome
the delegates of the N atioual Democracy, j
who have met iu order to present to the
American people the candidates for j
President and Vice-President, for whom >
they solicit the suffrages of the Demo- j
erotic and Conservative voters of this ■
great Republic. At our last National I
Convention on the 4th of July, 1868,1 pre- ,
dieted that the election of Gen. Grant j
would result in the gradual usurpation J
of all the functions of the Government
by the Executive and by Congress, to l>e
enforced by the bayonets of a military
despotism. The vast majority of the
people of the United Stated have
witnessed with grief and sorrow
| tlie correctness of that prediction, and ;
they look forward with fear and appre- j
hension fit the dangers which are threat-.
ening us, if, by flic re-election of Gen.»
Grant, the policy thus far pursued by
the Radical party be continued. The
thinking men of both parties have be
come alive to the fact that we are now
living under a military despotism, over
riding the civil authority in many States
of the Uuion; that by tlie enactment of
arbitrary and unconstitutional laws,
through a depraved majority in Con
gress, the rights of the States are in
fringed and trampled upon, and that
Ciesarism and centralization arc un
dermining the very foundations of
our federal system, and are sweep
ing away the’ constitutional bulwark
erected by the wisdom of the fath
ers of the Republic. These abuses
have become so glaring that the
wisest and best men of the Republican
party have severed themselves from the
Radical ring, which is trying to fasten
upon the country another four years’
reign of corruption, usurpation and des
potism ; and whatever individual opin
ion we may entertain as to the choice of
the candidate whom they have selected
in opposition to General Grant, there
cannot be any- doubt of the patni >tic im
pulses which dictated their action, nor
can any fault be found with the platform j
of principles upon which they have
placed their candidate. The resolutions 1
of the Cincinnati Convention are what
the country require, and they must com- ,
hiaml the hearty support of every patriot
throughout the vast extent of our land.
In the struggle which is before ns we
must look to principles, and not men, i
and I trust that no personal predictions :
or prejudice w ill deter us from doing 1
our duty to the American people.
Gen. Grant has been a good and faith
ful soldier during our civil war. His
stubborn and indomitable courage has
helped to crown the Union with victory,
and the American people have rewarded
his services with the most unbounded
generosity. I am willing to concede that
his intentions on taking the Presidential
chair were good and patriotic, but he
lias most signally and sadly failed in the
discharge of the high trust imposed
upon him by the confidence of a grateful
people. He is at this moment the very
personification of the misrule which is
opposed to us, and his re-election is
fraught with the most deplorable conse
quences for the welfare of the Republic
and endangers the liberties of our peo
ple.
On the other hand, Air. Greeley has
been heretofore a bitter opponent of
the Democratic party, and the violent
attacks against myself individually
which have from time to time appeared
in his journal, certainly do not entitle
him to any sympathy and preference
at my hands. But Mr. Greeley repre
sents the national and constitutional
principles of the Cincinnati platform, and
by his admirable and manly let
ter of acceptance he lias shown that ho
is fully alive to tlieir spirit, and that,
if elected, he means to carry them out
honestly and faithfully. Should you,
therefore, in yonr wisdom, decide to
pronounce in favor of the Cincinnati
candidates, I shall for one most cheer
fully bury all past differences, and vote
and labor for theireloction with the same
zeal anil energy with which I have sup
ported heretofore, and mean ever to sup
port., the candidates of tire Democratic
party. ,
The American people look with deep
solicitude to yonr deliberations. It is
for you to devise means by which to
free them from the evils under which
they are suffering. But in order to ob
tain that, you are called upon to make
every sacrifice and yield party prefer
ence. However much you might de
sire to fight the coming battle for
our rights and liberties under one
of the trusted leaders of the Demo
cratic party, it will become your duty to
discard all consideration of party tradi
tion, if the selection of a good and wise
man outside of our own ranks offers bet
ter chances of success. You must re
member that you are here not only as
Democrats, but ns citizens of our com
mon country, and that no sacrifice can
be too great which she demands at yonr
hands.
Mr. Belmont, after some personal re
marks, nominated Tlioh. Jeff. Randolph,
of Virginia, temporary Chairman, saying,
it is an auspicious omen that a scion of
the signer of the Declaration of Inde
pendence is to inaugurate the struggle
of the Democracy for freedom, and
equality for every American citizen, and
against oppression and tyranny in our
fair land.
Mr. Randolph was elected by acclama
tion. In taking the Chair he said :“ I
am aware that the very great honor
conferred upon mo by this body is due
to no personal merit of my own, but is a
token of respect to the State from which
I come, and is a recognition of other cir
cumstances possibly adventitious. I am,
perhaps, the oldest member of this body,
and a life of eighty years with the Demo
cratic-Republican party constitute me a
senior member. f remember freshly
every Presidential contest from the first
election of Jefferson to tho present time,
and T can say with truth that I re
member none which involved higher
questions of personal liberty, local
self-governmemt, honest administration,
and constitutional freedom than the
present, or out. which demands of our
party and our people a calmer or more
earnest recourse to prudential principles.
It strikes me as the duty of this body
and of this hour to wrest the Govern
ment from the hands of its present des
potic and corrupt holders, and to place
it in honest hands; to restore the citizen
everywhere to thepnmd consciousness of
personal right, and to all the States per
fect integrity of local self-government.
This, with the recognition of thesnprem
acy of the Constitution and the law will,
in my judgment, discharge all our pres
ent duty.”

Speaker’s gavel is made from a piece of
live oak from the old Frigate Constitu
tion.
Reverdy Johnson appeared on the
platform, and was cheered.
The Committees on Credentials and
Organization were appointed.
Belmont’s remarks were frequently in
terrupted with moderate applause.
Tin' mention of Greeley’s name re
ceived loud demonstrations of approval.
The band played “. Dixie” when Ran
dolph took his seat as temporary Chair
man. Received with cheers. His speech
was delivered with much energy and
effectiveness, considering that the
speaker is nearly an octogeniarian, and
was repeatedly cheered.
Rev. Henry Slicer being presented,
addressed the throne of grace.
The rules of the former Democratic
Convention were adopted.
A resolution of I hanks to Belmont
was adopted, and the Convention re
cessed till four o’clock.
THE ANTI-GKEET.EYITES.
The anti-Greelev Democrats assembled
between twelve and one o’clock this af
ternoon, at the Maryland Institute.
There were present about one hundred
persons. When the Convention was
called to order by Mr. Flanders, it. was
moved and seconded that the preliminary
arrangements made yesterday for organ
ization he temporarily continued.
Van Allen called for the reading of the
report of the names of delegates.
Blanton Duncan suggested that the
committee on tho subject have further
time, which was agreed to.
W. H. Murrell,.of Louisville, said lie
understood it was not the object of this
Convention to take any definite action
until it should bo ascertained what
course has been taken by the Baltimore
Convention, on the action of which
hinges somewhat what this Convention
will do. This Convention will acquiesce
in what is done by the Baltimore Con
vention; provided it adopts a Democrat ic
platform and nominates a Democratic
candidate. If that Convention should
fail to do so, this Convention propose
to take some sfej’s for the purpose of
continuing the organization of the Dem
ocratic party.
For the purpose of furthering this ob
ject, the speaker moved the appointment
of a committee of seven to report an ad
dress to the Demoeiwy of the country.
Van Allen, understanding the motion
did not conclude the making of a plat
form, seconded the motion. The greed
of the Democratic party was well known, ,
especially to those who were here assent- j
bled.
Stokes, of South Carolina, spoke m
favor of initiating a movement which
would bring together tho pure Democ
racy of the count ry and preserve its or- j
ganization. |
Peter Keyser, of Indiana, earnestly
advocated the necessity of keeping the
Democratic party together.
Murrell’s motion was agreed to, and j
the Chair appointed as a committee to*,
prepare a Democratic address, Murrell, I
of Kentucky, Chairman ; Samuel J.
Bayard, of New Jersey; M. M- Pomeroy, 1
of New York : Geo. I). Parker, of Vir
ginia ; Joseph J. Davis, of West V ir
giiiin ; Joseph LeDie, of Dlinois ; and j
E. Keyser, of Tesgs.
On motion of Francis Hopkins, a com
mittee of seven was appointed yn per
manent .organization. ,
PERMANENT OltO AKI7.ATTON OF THE CON
VENTION.
The Convention elected as permanent
Chairman ex-Senator J. S. Doolittle, of
Wisconsin. Senator Bayard ami Gov
ernor Hoffman conducted him to the
chair. He was received with great ap
plause.
In taking the chair, he said:
Gentle-men of the Convention :
I thank you for this great honor.—
Words can hardly tell ho.w much ; but
vou will allow me to pass at" once
from what is personal, to speak of
the great occasion, the duty and tlie
purpose which brings ns here. Two
years ago, nearly five years after the
bloody period of the civil war bad closed,
the Liberal Republicans of Missouri,
[applause] feeling keenly all the evil of
the proscription test-oath, the hates
and the strifes and the passions of the
war had left npott them, long after the
war itself had ceased, and feeling keenly
the Executive Federal power in their
loyal elections, determined to organize
a movement to restore equal rights to
all our citizens [applause], white as well
as black [applause] ; to restore local
self-government and to arrest the fnrther
centralization of Federal power. [Ap
plause.] They then said this thing has
gone far enough, if uot already too far.
'Hie time has come when all honest and
patriotic Republicans must suv halt, and
reassert the vital doctrine of Republican
Government ; that under the Con
stitution the powers of the Federal
Government are defined and limited
[applause and cries of good, good], anil
that the people of the States have the
right to govern themselves in their own
domestic affairs, upon the basis of the
equality of all the States before the
higher law, before the Constitution, and
the equality of all men before the law
[applause], of universal loyalty, am
nesty, suffrage and peace. Taking no
j steps backward, taking no right and
j franchise which had been secured to
the blacks, pledging themselves to sup
-1 port them all in their full vigor—they at
the same time demanded in the name
; of peace, in the name of liberty, in the
i name of Republican Government itself,
that freedom and equal rights should be
| restored to tlie white people. [Great
; applause. ] They organized nearly 40,-
| 000 strong, and called upon B. Gr?tz
Brown—[applause]—to lead the move
ment. They placed him in nomination
for Governor. Then what followed?
| Eighty thousand Democratic Repnbli
| cans—| cheers] —looking upon the suc-
I cess of that movement as above any
1 party triumph—[cheers]—resolved to
j sustain it with their whole strength.
; Love of country, love of Republican
| liberty, love of equal rights of all men, I
1 inspired that union and taught men
1 to act together who had been politi-
I cally opposed to each other all their i
I lives upon other questions and in 1
other times, ami without violating
honor, logic, eonscienee or consistency |
on either side. This patriotic union was
based upon higher grounds than ordi- :
nary central political action. [Great ap
plause.] Even those who had fought
against each other in battle clasped \
hands over the bloody chasm [renewed
applause]; and side by side,like brothers,
with hearts beating in unison—beating
strongwith the same high purpose—they
helped to bear its flag to a glorious vic
tory. That, gentlemen, is Liberal Republi
canism [enthusiasm], and that is Demo
cratic-Republicanism. [Great entlinsia
isin. ] The victory which came from that
union was the end of proscription, test
oaths, of pain and strife, and of all dis
loyalty—in a word, the real end of the
civil war came with that victory, and
did not come until then in Missouri.
[lntense applause.] It redeemed that
State, it gave the right of freemen to
70,000 men who had been bound and fet
tered. Missouri is now a free State in
this Union, with all her rights, dignity
and equality under the Constitution,
and not one murmur of disloyalty is any
where heard. By that union Federal
dictation in Missouri in their local elec
tions was overthrown, and by that union
strife and hate have given place to
peace and to good will. By that
union, liberty with equal rights for all
have given to the State unbounded
prosperity, and to her people a joy al
most. unspeakable. So great was their
joy and so complete tlieir success, the
Liberal Republicans of that State were
not content without making an effort
to extend the same union of Liberal and
Democratic-Republicans, and with it the
same blessing of liberty, peace and fra
ternity, to all the other States. [Rounds
of applause.] Accordingly, in a State
Convention, on the ‘24th of March last,
they resolved to invite the Liberal
Republicans in all the States to
meet them in National Convention in
Cincinnati, on the first day of
May. The invitation was accepted;
there was, indeed, a great response.
They came by thousands—in such vast
numbers, that a delegate convention of
representatives of all the States was
formed, both from principle and from
necessity, to give form to its proceed
ings. Many of the ablest men in the,
country, lately leaders in the Republican
party, were there, and took part in its
deliberations. They were assured that
a large number of Liberal Republicans
in every State and from all portions ol
the country, stood behind, ready to sm
tain them, and they were morally certain
that if tlie millions whom we this d*y
represent [cheers] would only come to
their support, the number of Liberal
Republicans would reach half a mil
lion o’r more. [Great cheers.] That
Convention presented a platform and
presented candidates to the coun
try—for President, Horace Greeley
[long and continued cheering], and
for Vice-President, B. Grata Brown
[more enthusiasm], and that conven
tion, for the promotion and success
outlie principles, declared in that, plat
form there enunciated, and the support
of the candidate nominated by that con
vention, have invited and cordially wel
comed the co-operation of all patriotic
citizens, without regard to previous po
litical affiliation. Those principles were
so clearly and concisely stated in the
platform itself, and restated in tho letter
of acceptance of Mr. Greeley [more
cheering], and they are so well known to
you all that I will uot restate them. For
weeks that platform and these candidates
have been before the country. Meanwhile,
the Convention called to nominate Gen.
Grant [hisses], and to endorse and to
continue the principles, practices and
policy of his administration, has done
its work. [Hisses], As between the
iw I „.i,iii,mio ana tin; iouowers
of the Grant Administration, the issue is
clearly made up —it is Grant or Greeley
[lmmense enthusiasm and cries of Gree
ley], While these events were passing
the Democratic-Republicans, whom we
represent, held their conventions in all
the States. The Liberal movement, the
example of Missouri, the Cincinnati
Convention, its platform and its candi
dates, with tlieir letters of acceptance—-
were all before these conventions, which
were very largely attended by their
ablest men; and the paramount
questions before these conventions
were, shall we accept this invitation to
eo-ojierate with the Liberal Republicans.
[Great applause.] Shall we adopt their
platform ? | Loud cries of “yes,” “y«s,”
and some cries of “ never]”. Shall we
nominate the same candidate ? [“Y«s,”
“yes,”], and shall we elect thtm,
[“ves,” “yes,” and loud oheering]-t-or
shall we refuse to co-operate —nomiinto
other caudidat.es, | “ No, ” “ no*—l
“Greeley,” “Greeley,”] and strive to j
elect them over both tickets already iu i
the field ?
Gentlemen, these are tlie questions!
which you are to decide now and
here. That you will decide them
wisely, T cannot doubt, nor can
any one doubt who looks over this
body of men, representing, as they
do, three millions of citizens, and who i
feel, as every one here must feel, the |
high and patriotic purpose which in
spires you. Gentlemen, wliat means
this great and rising movement which
we everywhere see? What means this
proposed union of three millions of
Democratic-Republicans with a million, j
it may be, of Liberal Republicans ? j
What means this union upon a common 1
platform, and this proposed union upon j
the same candidate ? —a union so sud
den, so compact, so earnest, as to sur
prise its friends and to confound its one- ,
mies. [Applause.] Which comes as
the winds come; which, to borrow
a figure, overwhelms the ordinary
currents of public opinion as the j
great storms always run to the surface
currents. What means all this? There
are somethings, gentlemen, it does not
mean. It means no abandonment of
what is true, of what is just, of what is j
good in human government. [Applause.]
It means no union of the dead upon dead
issues, but a union of the living upon the
living issues of the present. It means no
union for the spoils of office [applause],
! but it means a union of men with the same
j faith, upon the great and paramount
I issues of the present hour ; a frank,
j manly, honorable and equal union of
I men who have the sagacity to see and
I tlie moral courage to accept the situa-
I tion. [“Good,” “good,” and loud elieer
! iiig. ] It means a union of men who
j have the sagacity to see what is past and
j to deal with the issue of the present,
and for the future to do their duty to
; their country, their God and their fel
j low-men. The issue of to-day is not
I the repeal of the Missouri Compromise,
I oiiy the question of slavery in the Terri
| torn-*, opqp which alone the Itepubli
can party was organized in 1856. It is
! not upon that which followed when the
Lecompton constitution to* Kansas
divided the Democratic party in twain
j and fleeted Abraham Lincoln to
| tlie Tresiifetjfy in 1860. It is not the
question of seceaswß, por of war to put
down rebellion, dor the abolition of
slavery in the States by military order
I or by constitutional amendment, upon
* which Mr, f,,ip£ghi was re-elected in
I 1864; nor ret is it tipi question of re-
construction, or of the lfeii or the 15th
amendments, nor the question of negro
suffrage, nor the establishment by Fed
eral power of universal negro suffrage,
as a condition preueifefit to the States of
the South haying any rights or any ex
istence even as States in the Union. It is
none of these questions that is now in
issue. AU those have been issues of the
past —great issues, sufficient iu them
selves to create and dissolve political
parties, because ideas are stronger than
men or parties ; but they are all past
issues. They have been fought out, and
fought to the end in the forum, or in
the field, ana they are no more in issue
to-day than the Mexican vgT or U ,e war
of rebellion. [Applause.] We eoutd i[fft
reopen them, if we would, and they
falsely misrepresent our purpose who
say that we would reopen them if we
could. This great Liiioij, therefore,
means no steps backward [cheevs] —;
forward is the word—[lond cheering. ] —
And first of all, it means to do for all tlie
other States of theSonth what it has al- |
ready done in Missouri. Instead of:
proscription, test oaths, suspension J
of habeas corpus and military despot-;
ism, it means personal freedom for the
individual and republican good for all.
[Loud applause.] Instead of negro
supremacy, upheld by proscription and
the bayonet, it means equal rights to all
men, white as well as black. [Loud ap
plause.] Instead of thieving govern
ments, organized to plunder subjugated
States, it means the dominance of
intelligence and integrity. Instead of
strife, hate, and robbery, it means
justice, liberty, peace, loyalty and
good will. And, gentlemen, for our
whole country—East, West, North and
South. It means, instead of a war Pres
ident, trained oilly in a military school,
and whose whole character has been
formed in the ideas, arts, habits and
despotism of military life—instead of
this, it mennsjthejßlection of a peace Pres
ident [cheers], trained in the ideas, arts,
blessings and republican simplicity of
peace and universal freedom [loud
cheers] ; of peace, not enchained ; of
liberty, not under arrest awaiting trial,
sentence and execution by a drumhead
court-martial; but’thnt liberty ainl peace
which the Constitution secures by pla
cing the civil law above the sword [loud
; cheers] —by preserving in full vigor tlie
| sacred writ of haluax corpus, and the
right of trial by jury. [Applause.] It
; means another tiling, and perhaps tlie
most important of them all. It means
to arrest the centralization of power in
the Federal Government. [Loud cheers. ]
It means to assert the vital principle of
! our Republican system in which it
moves and lias its very being—that con
; stitntions are made by the people in
i their sovereign capacity, for the express
! purpose of defending and limiting the
powers of government —[applause] —
) the powers of all governments, State
or national. It means that we are
| determined that Presidents and Gov
ernors, Congress and State Legis
latures, and every department of the
1 Government, shall obey the Oonsti
] tution. [Prolongued applause.] Mr.
! Doolittle concluded : Gentlemen, I have
i thus briefly stated tho situation, the du
' ties and the purposes which bring us
1 here. A great responsibility rests upon
J this Conventior. If its action shall be
sneli, I doubt not it. will be, as to put.
an end to this misrule which for the
past few years has afflicted our beloved
country, this generation and generations
to come after us will remember with
pride and gratitude the Convention at
Baltimore, of the fitli of July, 1872.
Amid loud and long continued ap
plause, Mr. Do .little took his seat.

Baltimore, Ally 10, noon,—The dele
gates were generally in their seats by 10
; o’clock.
A second brlss band, located in tlie
! upper gallery, aitertained the audieueo
with various ais, of which, “My Mary
j land” and “Yaikee Doodle” were equal
ly applauded.
At a quarter tfter 10 o’clock, Chairman
| Doolittle announced that the hour to
i which the Convention adjourned had ar
-1 rived, and calle] the Convention to or
\ der. lie eallednpou Rev. Dr. Leyburn,
! of Baltimore, wio addressed tlie Throne
of Grace.
The Chair aniounced that fertile con
venience of menbers of the Convention
and the press,, that every person rising
to mitko a i mill on or «peali, aliall an
nounce his name and State.
Cabal], of Arkansas, asked seats, by
! courtesy, forfive delegates from Arkan
] sas, in excess of their regular number.
Agreed to.
Burr, of Connecticut, announced that
the Conunitjee on Resolutions was ready
to report. He came to the platform,
and, at his iequest, Reading Clerk Ber
lin read the report, recommending the
adoption o! the resolutions already
adopted by tlie Liberal Republican Con
vention at Cincinnati. [Cheers.] In
order that there should be no misrepre
sentation as to the resolutions, Burr
called for their reading in full to the
Convention, which was done—each plank
in the platform being received with ap
plause. The one term plank was espe
cially well received.
j A call for three cheers at the close
elicited a partial response.
! Burr explained that the resolutions
were the Cincinnati platform exactly—
, nothing added, nothing excluded. This
’ platform was adopted in the committee
I by all the States, except Delaware, Mis
sissippi, Georgia aud Oregon,
i He moved the adoption of the report,
|and moved the previous question,
j Bayard, of Delaware, inquired whetli
■ tr the previous question, another name
fir the gag law, had become tho law of
J tie Democratic Convention,
i Without notice to the delegate’s ques
j tbn, the Chair said "the Convention had
alopted the rules of the House of Rep
resentatives, so that tlie motion of Burr
j wss in order and not open to debate.
Til-ions gentlemen appealed for witli
| dravval of the motion, in order to allow
i a sjort debate.
Birr said he felt compelled to decline.
1 Ascene of great confusion followed,
| amic calls of “question,” “debate,’ -
&c.
On a motion to sustain the previous
, question, the call of the States was or
dered aud, being taken, resulted in
yeas, 553; nays, 176.
Hofman, in casting the united vote of
New Sjark in tlie affirmative, said some
of tlq delegates, himself among the
numlwv, were opposed to the previous
question
Hancv, of Ohio, denied the right of
his delegation to cast the vote as a unit,
and askul to have his vote recorded
“ No.”
The Clnir announced that Burr, of
Connecticut, was now entitled to one
hour to de.iate the resolutions. Also,
that the fpntlcmau from Delaware
(Bayard) appealed for ten minutes.
Burr conceded this request, as Bayard
is a member of the Committee on Reso
lutions.
Bayard took the platform, saying
while there was no disposition to carp
at and oppose mqi because of formed
political opinions, ]ie hoped tlie great
Democratic organisation would be al
lowed to have inippendent expression
of its own honest sjitiments. [Cheers. ]
Why take, out and Iried, tlie resolutions
j of another organization? [Applause. 1 Why
have tho opinions oft.ther men.not chosen
by us, forced drtvn onr throats as
onr expression ? It is proposed here
that we shall go beffre the country fertile
first time without <nr own independent
j expression of prinetdes. It is not just
or wise to ask ns go into this cam
paign under the drilling of a minority.
: [Calls of “time,” “fme.”]
The Chair annoniced that Burr, out
of respect for the minority, consented to
give Bayard ten rn bates more.
Another Connecticut delegate ob
jected to any man's occupying the time
iof the Convention in tips way. [Ap
i pltqjse and hisses. ]:
Tlie Cl,air pallid to order, and re
. minded the delegates that this is a de
liberative assemblage, and urged a re
: spectfnl hearing of any one who occu-
I pied the floor, whether they approved
1 his sentiments or npt.
Bayard finally resumed, arguing the
necessity for some expression of opinion
upon the question of exercise of Federal
military power under color of legislation
to enforce the fouiteenth and fifteenth '
constitutional amendments. If the Con- I
vention failed in this, there would be
serious disappointments. In eoncln- !
sion, he entered his protest against the j
pending motion to adopt the report as a
whole, asked a separate vote on the
several distinct pending.
O’Connor, of South Carolfjia, regret
ted that there should have been any dif
ference of opinion here. All other i’ssues
should be merged in the single one of
defeating the re-election of the present
national administration. He said the
reconstruction acts and the 13th, 14th and
15th constitutional amendments had
been accepted. Public opinion was
higher than governments and supe
rior to any declarations by conventions.
[Applause.] There was nothing left as
an issne now but to save the nation from
destruction by corruption. He re
viewed and criticised the foreign policy
of the Administration, and urged the
union of the whole nation to defeat the
unhallowed purposes and shifth-ss policy
of the present Government. [An allu
sion to the prospective election of Gree
ley was received with great applause.]
As to the fifteenth amendment, he would
he the last man to attempt to wrest from
the four millions of freqdmeu the right
of suffrage. [Great applause]

tion upon adoption of the report of the

All the votes were east for Greeley, ex
cept for Bayard, Delaware, (1; New Jer
sey, 0 ; Groesbeck, West Virginia, 2 ;
Black, Pennsylvania, 21. Pennsylvania
voted two blanks.
FURTHER DEBATE.
Judge Reagan, of Texas, followed.
He said it was supposed among his peo
ple that the Democratic party could suc
ceed at this election with a distinct
Democratic party. Therefore, they had
come here to unite with their brethern
from the whole country in effecting such
an arrangement as will unite the Demo
crats with all honest opponents of the
Administration. Tt was wisdom, there
fore, to take the Cincinnati platform.
Why refuse to accept the situation and
make the host of it ?
Barksdale, of Mississippi, asked if it
was admissable to take a separate vote
upon each resolution.
The Chair answered “no, as the pre
vious question had been ordered.”
Barksdale—Then I ask the unanimous
consent of the Convention to a division
of the vote. [Cries of “no,” “no.”]
Mcßae, of Tennessee, made frantic
efforts to obtain the floor, and was final
ly recognized by tlio Chair, and proceed
ed with an excited protest against the
cutting off of debate. [Cries of “ sit
down,” “ call the roll,” “ call the roll.”]
ROLL OF STATES ON THE PLATFORM.
The roll of the States was called on
the main question—the adoption of the
platform—which resulted in yeas, CG2;
nays, 70.
At the close of the call, when Dela
ware voted “no,”thei - o were loud hisses.
The Chair appealed to the Convention
to treat with respect the vote of any and
every State. Delegates would aid the
disturbance which was in the galleries.
Before the vote was announced, per
mission was asked by the Chairman of
the Alabama delegation to make an ex
planation of tlieohange which hr desired
to make in the record of Alabama’s vote.
Objection being made, the Chairman
ruled that while Alabama had the right
to change the vote, lie could not main
tain it. Subsequently, unanimous con
sent being accorded, Shorter, of Alabama,
took two minutes to explain that there
were in the pending resolutions some
statements, rather than declarations of
principles, which some of his delegation
could not endorse without explanation
ami without stultification. Having said
this, he changed Alabama’s vote from
12 ayes and 8 nays to 20 ayes. [Cheers. |
Hoffman, of New York, presented a
petition of 15,000 Germans of the cityof
New York, relative to a nomination of
the candidate for President. It was
sent to the desk, where it was read by
the Secretary. It recommends the nomi
nation of Greeley and Brown, and ex
presses the belief that they will receive
the hearty support of the Germans, re
gardless of past party affiliations, as the
best nominations that can bo made.
[Cheers.]
Ray, of Indiana, offered an amend
ment, providing that on the calling of
each State, its Chairman shall state how
the delegation votes and his statement
alone shall be taken.
The amendment was accepted by the
mover of the original resolution and the
latter adopted viva void-.
Snowliook, of Illinois, presented the
name of Horace Greeley as the Demo
ciatic candidate for President. [Cheers.]
On the roll being called on the Presi
dential nomination each vote for Greeley
was received with cheers. The ballot
resulted: Greeley, 686 ; Jas. A. Bayard,
15 ; J. S. Black, 21 ; Groesbeck, 2.
INCIDENTS.
When Hoffman rose to cast the vote
of New r York, her delegation was greeted
with three cheers.
Order being restored, Hoffman dis
puted Missouri’s promise to give Gree
ley the largest majority of any State in
the Union, and said New York’s major
ity woubl be larger than Missouri’s total
vote. He also expressed his regret that
there had been any division of the vote
here. He knew those who did not vote
for Horace Greeley were acting consci
entiously, but he desired to appeal to
them. New York is a Democratic State;
it had more than four hundred thousand
Democratic voters, and when these were
ready to sacrifice personal preferences
and prejudices on the altar of the coun
try, he Imped their brethren elsewlfcre
would do the same. [Great cheers. ]
After the Chair had announced the re
sult of the ballot, Wallace, of Pennsyl
vania, took the platform, being received
with cheers. He said that in obedience
to the decision of public sentiment in
his State, their delegation had east part
of their vote against the gentleman.
By the usages and customs of the Demo
cratic party, he is now its nominee for
the Presidency. They would yield to
the decision and accept the result which
the great high court of appeal of the
party had decreed. In conclusion, by
instruction:; of his delegation, he moved
that the nomination be made unanimous.
| WildYheers and music], “Battle Cry of
Freedom,” followed by “Hail to the
Chief.]
When the music ceased, a scene was
lowered at the rear of the stage, pre
senting a view of the White House.
[Applause. ]
Order being restored, the motion of
Wallace, that the nomination be made
unanimous was put and carried with one
or two dissents only.
The roll was called on the nomination
for Vice-President.
On motion of Chalmers, of Missis
sippi, the nomination was made unani
mous.
Bonck, of Wisconsin, moved a resolu
tion appointing a committee of one
from each State, to he named by the
respective delegations, to apprize the
candidates of their nominations.
Payne, of Ohio, moved to amend by
adding the President of the Convention,
to he Chairman. Agreed to.
On motion of Heaton, of Ohio, a
resolution was adopted that on adjourn
ment the Convention would, with music,
escort the New York and Missouri dele
gations to their quarters.
A resolution was adopted leaving the
place of the next National Convention to
be decided by the National Committee.
Also adopting resolutions of thanks to
John T. Ford, to Frederick Raine and
to Baltimore for courtesies ; also, of
thanks to ex-Senator Doolittle for the
able and impartial manner in which lie
lias presided over the Convention.
Thayer, of New York, made a few re
marks eulogistic of Greeley.
The Chairman returned thanks for
the kind expression towards him, and
invoked the blessing of Providence up
on the efforts of the Convention.

General Summary.
New York, July B.— Stokes made his
statement to-day. His version of the
tragedy is ; 1 went up by the ladies’ en
trance, and when I got. up, I saw a lady
come out of the parlor. She turned away
her head, and I saw I was mistaken,
and 1 started to go down stairs, ■when 1
saw Fisk coming up stairs. He made a
rush, and when lie got to the platform
he pulled out his pistol. I could not by
any possibility be mistaken. I saw it as
plain as anything I ever saw. It was a
silver mounted pistol. I was in a line
with him then, so I jumped aside and
said : “ Don't fire,” and pulled out my
own pistol and fired. I had lit in my
outside coat pocket, or I wouldn’t have
had time enough to draw. I leaned on
the rail and cocked it with one hand
and fired. He held his pistol in both
hands, and as 1 fired he cried, “Oil!”
He didn’t stagger much at the first shot
and 1 fired again. 1 knew he would
shoot me if I didn’t fire. It. was three
or four steps down. He dropped his
pistol on the stairs after the second shot.
There was no one near at the time. I
had received numerous warnings that
Fisk threatened to have my life.
Question —Did you intend to hit Fisk
when you fired ?
Answer—Yes, sir.
Question —And knew your pistol w r as
loaded with four balls ?
Answer—Yes, sir.
Miss Mansfield was also on the stand.
She said Fisk was a very moderate
drinker. She gives a curious story, that
Fisk called at Mansfield’s house, and
said unless I turned to him he would
kill Stokes. Fisk said, “ Yon had bet
ter release me from this tiling.’’Mansfield
said, “Yes, if yon come out publicly
and acknowledge I was right and the
affidavits against me were frauds.”
Fisk said there were sft many people in
volved lie could not. Mansfield said,
then, “ I won’t withdraw.”
Fisk said, taking out his revolver,
then I will kill Stokes. I told Stokes
and advised him to be careful.
New York, July B.— The representa
tives of S2,(MK),(MiI) of North and South
Carolina bonds met to-day. They pre
ambled that they were defrauded of the
accrued interest by dishonest politi
cians and resolved to co-operate with the
State authorities in prosecuting the
robbers of the treasury. Judge Willard
was spokesman.
Little Rock, July B.— Tlie excite
ment here with regard to counterfeit
bonds is still oil the increase. Spurious
bonds, to the amount of $6,000, have
been found in the office of the State
Treasurer. An examination into the
affair lias been going on to-day with
closed doors.
Cincinnati, July 7. —This afternoon a
hoy twelve years old, named Frank
Sehikk, the son of a widow, was shot
and killed by Rev. Samuel J. Browne,
an aged local preacher. It appears that
Browne lias been for some time past
greatly annoyed by boys, who, in spite
of repeated remonstrances, have entered
his premises to take his fruit and com
mit. other depredations.
To-day a number of boys were playing
ball outside, when the ball was thrown
into Brown’s yard, young Sehikk enter
ed the premises to recover it, and the
old man fired at him with slugs, one
piece striking him in the breast, inflict
ing a wound from which the boy died in
a few moments. Browne was arrested,
but subsequently released on $50,000
bail.
The affair created intense excitement
in the neighborhood of the Brighton
House, near which it occurred. A large
crowd assembled to-night in the vicinity
of Browne’s house, which is guarded by
the police, and there is danger, from
the temper of the people, that they will
take the law in their own hands should
Browne he found.
Washington, July 10.—Alluding to a
camcatnre in Harper's Weekly, under
lined, “When the rebellious traitors are
overwhelmed in the field and scattered
like leaves before an angry wind, it must
not be to return to peaceful and con
tented homos—they must find poverty
at their firesides and see privation in
tlio anxious eyes of mothers and the
rags on children.” The Tribune says:
“We deem it only necessary to say that
not a word of this pretended extract is
found in tlio Tribune of that date, and
no such words were ever written by Mr.
Greeley. We leave the public to judge
the moral quality of the act committed
by the Messrs. Harpers.”
Washington, July 10.—The Revenue
Commissioner decides that a person who
has a fixed place of business in a car, as
for instance at a stand in a Pullman car,
or in a steamboat, to which persons may
go and procure cigars, ike,., instead of
being sought out in various parts of the
train or boat, and solicited to purchase,
is a dealer ill tobacco and not a peddler.

COTTON GIN.
Price, $4 per Saw.
rivjIESE CUN'S wore sold the past season for
1 tho first time. They are made under Mr.
Guli.ett’B personal supervision, at his works
in Louisiana, who never allows one to he sent
from his works until it has been fully tested,
and made to gin perfectly in every respect.
'Tliis mode of testing is very important to the
purchaser, as he does not inn the risk ol re
ceiving and setting up a Gin to find it, on trial,
to he imperfect.
The IMPROVED GIN differs materially
from the Steel Brush Gin formerly sold by us.
inasmuch as the Steel Brush has three brushes,
while the New Gin has but one.
We guarantee every Gin to be of very light
draft, to thoroughly clean the seed, and make
a superior sample. Besides, it is simple in its
construction, easily adjusted and gins very fast.
We respectfully refer to all those who have j
used the Improved Gin the past Winter.
Planters wishing Gins will consult their own
interests by either writing to us for our Circu
lar with Certificates, or calling at our office and !
examining for themselves before purchasing
elsewhere.
tv.-' We will take back every Gin which does
not work well when fairly tested, and pay all ;
exponseg incurred by the purchaser.
