CLEvKLlsD, May II, P. M-Judging
from the number of delegates already in,
and those reported on the way, the con-
vention tomorrow viii be composed Of
several hundred delegates. There are
many Missourians in attendance, but the
delegates from Illinois, Iowa, Arkansas,
Ohio aud Pennsylvania are also large;
Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Kansas,
New York and Massachusetts,, are also
represented, bat not largely. The Ger
mans have delegates from IL States,
some Of whom held and informal meet
ing on Sunday, when, after an inter
change Of views, resolutions we're adopt
ed against Lincoln and in favor Of Ere
mont, against the suppression OF the
press and in favor Of the right Of trial

Engagement upon this right as destructive
Of American liberty; also, in favor Of
amending the Constitution TO prohibit
slavery, and for the Monroe doctrine,
and the one term principle, as absolute
ly necessary 10 check corruption.
Apparently none but the War Demo
Gratis from New York favor the nomina
ton OF Grant, with Fremont for Vice
President
They argue that victory in Virginia
next month will secure the Endorsement
Of this ticket at Chicago. On the other
hand the Fremonters say that they want
a man whose political record is yell de-
| fined and known to the country, and who
has positive strength. This they claim
for their candidate, and profess 10 be-
lieye be is as likely to be Endorsed at
Chicago as Is Gen. Grant The indica-
tons are that Gen Grants name will be
Withdrawn, and that Fremont will be
nominated without opposition. Several
are named for Vice President, among
them Gen. Cochran, Gen. -, Kratz
Brown, Gen. Logan, Gov Andrews and
Gen. Roseerans Cochran Is the strong
est tonight The platform will be sub.
Etantially that adopted by the Germans,
as indicated above On the points there
Get forth there seems 20 be no material
diversity Of opinion. Comptroller Rob
inson, Of New York, has written a letter
strongly favoring the nomination Of Gen

Parker Pillsbury brings with him q
letter from Wendell Phillips, expressing
regret at his inability TO attend the Con
vsntion, and complaining that the ad
ministration is q failure because il hal

A TRIUMPH FOR THH LADIEs--ThA |
great objections TO hoop skirts have been |
their inconvenisnt want Of dexibility,
the large space they occupy in pews, car
riAges and other crowded places, and the
frequent breakage by too great COM
preston, The ladies will be glad 10
know that these evils have been over
come by the invention Of the duplex
Elliptic Steel Spring Hoop Skirt, by
j. w, Bradley, which entirely removes
this difficulty. While giving the Skirt the
usual foil and symmetrical sppeArAace,
the wearer is enabled to contract II with
scarcely any attention or effort into so
small a compass that no trouble will be
experienced in the NEST crowded
coaches or cars, dispensing entirely with
the old difficulty and enabling the wear
err TO derive all the benefits which the
use Of this skirt has introduced.
The invention of this Duplex Elliptic
Spring" like all other vAluabls Inventions
is of the most simple kind, consisting Of
Duplex, (or two) Elliptic Steel Springs
ingeniously braided together edge to
edge, being very fea bic, tough and
elastic, enabling the we, rer to place and
fold it when in use as GO. lily and with the
same convenience as silk or muslin
dress. Another important feature of the
Duplex Elastic Spring, is, the durability
Of the wires or springs, giving much
greater strength to the Hoops, which
prevents their breaking or bending out
Of shape.
fSThe new Duplex Elliptic Skirt being
much more durable than the single wire
thus adding economy to the many othe
advantages, this invention is destined t,
create an excitement among the fai
sex, as no lady will dispense with tn
new Patent Duplex Elliptic Spring Skin
after once using it All made Of the me-
and elegant II and S-inch colored tap,
A stock of these Duplex Eipties ma
