IT is said that the President was
walking in Pennsylvania avenue
when he was informed Of the death
of Stanton. His first remark was
one Of surprise, and when assured
OF the fact, his head dropped up
on his breast and he showed much
emotion. Extraordinary! The
idea that such q stolid creature as
Grant could show emotion Of
sorrow is prepOsterous. When
Rawlins, the man who made him
great, lay dying and vexing the
wires with plaintive calls 10 Grant
at a neighboring watering place to
return to his dying friend and
companion, Grant threw aside the
dispatch and continued his dissi-
patton and permitted one who
loved him devotedly' and who
labored like q slave for his ad-
vancement, to die unnoticed.
There Is not room for a soft emo.
ton in his heart of stone.

DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION.
Failure to Make a Nomination.

The Democratic Convention which met
in Greeneville last Saturday, after labor
ing for six dreadful hours, failed to agree
upon a candidate, and adjourned for two
weeks. The two most prominent candid
ates were James White of Hawkins, and
eX. President Andrew johnson. On the
last BALLOT White was three votes ahead of
his illtstrious opponent, and his friends
stood as rocks, determined not to yield an
inch to the johnson wing, who, we under
stand, attempted to domfneer their favor
tie leader through the Convention. What
the result of two weeks calm deliberation
will be, it is hard to determine. Such old
tricksters as Andrew johnson may accom-
plish a great deal in that time and we
tremble for the consequences to MIR. White,
who claims the right to the track on the
ground that he made a canvass against
Mr.. Butler when he saw defeat staring
him in the face. Whether he deserves
much credit for making that Quixotic ex-
pertinent, is a question the democracy are
discussing, and we leave the discussion
with them, not being particularly interest
ed, only IL little curious to know which
one of them we will have to beat on cleo
ton day.

NO USE FOR A CONVENTION.

Our friends in Carter county, as will be
seen in another column. intend to leave no
uncertain impression on the mind of their
delegates as to who they shall vote for in
the Greeneville Convention, but instruct
them to 90 for Butler ''frst, last and all
the time We have. no particular fault
to find with the resolution, only we would
suggest, as railroad travel is high, money
scarce, and time precious at this season of
the year, that instead of sending a dozen
or more delegates to Greeneville, that they
simply send a copy of the resolution to the
President of the Convention. with tie
compliments of the Chairman and Secre-
tary of the Carter county Convention, and
dispense with the delegates altogether
/ We can't see the use of delegates, nor
why one would not do as well as a dozen.
They have but n duty to perform and
why not do that the shortest and cheapest
way? If all the counties would do like
wise. we could dispense with the District
Convention altogether. Let each send its
vote to the Chairman of the Executive
Committee, and let him declare the re-
suit by proclamation. Then there would
be no money spent except a three cent
postage stamp, no time lost, no whiskey
drank, no wrangling or quarreling, but
every thing would go off tremendously,
and the result would be precisely the sam e
as the delegates have no discretion in the
matter as it now stands; the primary
Conventions deciding the question before
hand. We are decidedly in favor of in
Producing a reform of this kind. 1t is the
very thing we have been needing. We
trust the Congressional Executive Com
mittee will take the matter in hand at
their next meeting, and amend their Con-
stitution in accordance with this plan.

FRANCE

The people of France have declared for
q Republic. The United States have
promptly recognized it. Our Government
could do no less under the circumstances ;
still we have little faith in the permanan-
cy of & Republic in France. The French
people are not educated in accordance with
Republican ideas. and the tendency of
Louis Napolean's reign has been to unfit
them for self government. Besides it is
not the policy O the other European pow
ers to tolerate any other form of Gov
eminent except a monarchy. Thus the
sympathy which France would receive
from the other crowned heads under a
monarchical form of Government will be
entirely lost to her as & Republic We
doubt even, whether King William will
look with favor upon any such termiha-
ton of the present difficulty. A Repub-
lie such as France might become, will ex-
crt anything but a healthy influence to-
ward the perpetuatlon of power in the
hands of the present reigning families of
Europe. and it is not likely that with all
their professed love for the people of
France and the declaration so oft repeat
ed. that the war was not made against
them but against Napoleon, that they
will sacrifice the interest of their
own descendants, to the somewhat doubt
full purpose OF aiding the French peO-
pie in setting up a form of Government
so dangerous to their own institutions,
and contrary to their own notions of what
should constitute the governing power.
