THE GRANT MEETING IN NEW
YORK

The New York Tribune is not satisfied
with the platform prepared in that city
for Gen Grant. la its issue Of the 5th
inst, that paper says:
"The carefully-worded platform, wherein
Gen. Grant was last evening presented at
Cooper Institute for President, plainly
ignores his support as Republican eandi-
date, or as the representative Of one dis
tinctively Republican idea. In that plat
form we find no word Of promise, even,
that the loyal governments now being
organized in the Southern States shall be
sustained, or that the loyal people of those
States, who had the misfortune 10 be born
black, are TO be guaranteed any rights
Whatever. 80 far as We can see, almost
any lifelong adversary of Republican,
principles and ideas might stand on that
platform, and be supported thereon as a
candidate for President. In the long cata-
logue Of names paraded as officers Of the
meeting, we remark, among those Of many
good and true men, those of several citi-
zens who can only support Gen. Grant on
the presumption that, if elected, he is not
to be, nor to seem, Republican" ea
The Cincinnati Gazette says "the
resolutions are such as an earnest man
would be strongly disposed to spit upon. =
