Kelso, at Police Headquarters. and stated
that man named McCord, who had rep.
resented himself az the brother of Detec.
tive McCord, Of his (the Captain's) com.
mand. had induced him to par. with q
gold watch and diamond ring, valued at
$500. on the pretense that he had been
offered $500 by Henry Bruckner. a
Washington Market broker. to arrest him
(Miller) on charge Of fraud. and that he
would not do it provided that he gave him
as much money. The watch and ring
were then given to him, and lie pawned
them.
The negotiations were concluded on the
25th of April last. Mr.. Miller subse-
quently called on Buckner and asked him
if he had procured warrant from Justice
Hogan for bis arrest. Mr.. Buckner de.
clared that he had not, and Captain Kelso
at once detailed Detectives Dunno and
Kearns to work up the case. and arrested
McCord in Grand street this forenoon.
He was brought to headquarters, and
there identified a. being one of Captain

TYE CONVENTIONS.

Tho Democratic conventions which met
a, Metropolis on Thursday last, 9TH inst,
were al that the most hopeful Damoer"
e,pcrei they would be-large and enthn-
sisstic.
Assembled together from fifteen counties
Of Egypt, the delegates were all intent
upon the same object-the success OF the
Democratic party, and there was not
Among them A man who would have per-
mi,,ed any personal consideration to have
nsrred the harmony which prevailed
during all the time the conventions were
IN session.
In the Congressional Convention
,bcre was no contest whatever, and Col
.,obn NJ. Crebs was selected as the Demo-
cratic standard.bearer by reclamation.
The announcement was made amid deafen-
inc cheers, which were again and again re-
pe.,ed, until the Colonel made his appear
anee before the convention, when they
grew louder, and scene Of excitement en-
.aed which beggars description. Indeed
We have never witnessed q greater ovation
than tia, which the rcpresen tativcs Of the
Eeyptian Democracy gave their congress
sionnl standard bearer on that occasion.
Ne NAV well feel proud Of his triumph.
Few polticians win so complete victoty
over the hearts Of their par,isans.
In The Senatorial convention there
was contest, bu, no bad blood was eI-
h,bi,ed. The friends Of the defeated can
dida,es submitted gracefully and cheered
for Holcornbe and Gibson with hearty god
will.
Never was there greater harmony In
any political body than that which was
seen In these conventions, and the
en,hu.ia.m which was there exhibited au.
CUR. a grand triumph for the Democracy
Of Egypt in November next. The tide Is
rising, and all the records Of success which
Raliealisrn has made in the past will
eventually be washed on, BY the whelm-
ing waves Of Democratic triumph.
