SoOO The Corstitu,iouals,s are also believed TO be

great ad6ons by the capture of that of Gen. Vega

That general engagement Will 6e fought, ane ne

one man was better than with another, that
other being sound Republican. But Mr.. Greeley
conld have done nothing had not the delegations 10
which have referred ooncurred with him; aud they
may certainly be supposed TO have known what was
best for their own States and 10 have had honesty
enough 10 tell the truth. Besides, Mr.. Greeley was
not allowed TO express his opinions unqnestoned or
massailed All the abusive things that have since
NJ peared in print against him were repeated al
uans uyu at Chicago. he was accused Of hypocrisy,
disappointed ambition personal malgnity, and all the
other mean and malicious motives which are now
claseed upon him. His statements were weighed in
connection with these charges but they were sup
ro,i.d by a hundred other men, most of 'hem dele
gates. and all men whose dsnerested Republicanism
could not be questioned the shafts of sanderfe harm
less No one man could have produced the result
ascribed to Mr.. Greeley. When the unanimous testi-
mouy Of the delegations from the pivotal States IL ig-
pored small cause may be assigned for the defeat of
Mr. Seward; but the facts they existed being
known, the outcry against Mr.. Greeley seems bet a
convenient vent for disappointed and selfish maigalcy.
In conclusion let Inc AK Is il not better this use-
less war of words be endcd' A plain duty is before
those who sincerely cherish Republican principles. Is

POLICY OF THE COUNTRY.
To the Editor Of The n. Y Tribune.
SIR: | need hardly premise that am not partisan

gain lose by the ascendancy Of either of the great
parties other than the general welfare of the
country may be affected. SO far my remarks shall
seem 10 ,incide with the action of the Republican
party il will he for the sole that that extent
it accords with my convictions of what will be sound
policy looking TO the interest of the entirety OF the
Union.
Public attention has lately been occupied with the
nomination of candidates for the Presidency, and it
might be supposed upon superficial observation, that
the strife was simply for the Of certain promi
rent politicians in the Accomplishment of their aspira
tons and the rewards which would be at the dsposal
of the victor among his adherents. rejecting mind
will however, perceive that there underlying all
this struggle for Office, principles of vastly
quence To The country than al the qualification OF per-
sonal AMBITION
The late Convention at Charleston was an act in the
great national drama whichis now being enacted. One
part think il now developed which il ia important 10

ayowal of Southern views. IL il no longer 10 be "A

THE RESULT AT CHICAGO.

TO The Editor Of The ". y. Tribune
SIR: have been reading for some days past, with
feelings of regret, the personal controversy that has
been in progress between yourself and Of your
broth editors as to the influences that defeated Mr..
Seward at Chicago, and the part Mr. Greeley took in
that memorable result. Now, Sir, was II delegate
in that Convention from California and took pains 10
inform myself fully to the opinions OF delegates and
outsiders generally, and believe know what causes
contributed TO Mr Stewards rejection; and that tho-e
causes set in motion by no one man, or small
body Of men. My own feelings toward Mr.. Seward
may be Judged from the fact that gave him my vote
on every ballot, from the high respect entertained
for the character Of the man. and from gratitude for
the peculiar services he has rendered TO the State in
part represented. But / convinced, before the
first ballot by conversations with the Connecticut,
Pennsylvania New.Jersey, and Indiana Delegations,
the " doubtful slater, that Mr. Seward could not be
nominated and that his prospect Of an election
very slight, if placed in nomination. The delega-
tiops from each of these States declared they
coplS not carry their States with Mr. Se ward.
They dictated no other candidate, though most Of
them b,,d preferences, but all united in opposition TO
Mr. Seward. Hr. Greeleys views ! learned by fire.

the Delegations from these States az question Of pol
