DIVERSE CONCLUSIONS,

New YORK, June l5-Nearly every
journal in the city discusses the manifesto
from Schurz, Bryant and Cox, coming to
diverse conclusions in relation thereto.
The Post Of this evening, Which should
know something Of the subject, since Mr..
Bryant was one of the signcrs of the call,
makes the following editorial remarks
"The Tribune is aghast at finding out
that there really were men who not OILY
DID not go TO Cincinnati on false pretences
but they say so that when they said re-
form and purity, they meant reform and
purity; that they really did not
mean to cheat anybody, that they
have not the slightest intention
at quietly sitting down, content
ed to be cheated. The Cincinnati conven.
tion, so far rs great minority of tie men,
bers was concerned, was for lofty
and noble purpose. In the hands OF
small majority, who gathered there
with quite other motives, it turned
out au impudent impositon-a mon
strous fraud The question is, what
shall be done about itY III any one really
thinks the Cincinnati Convention did a
wise thing and answered its legitimate
purpose, such'persons have nothing to do
but support its candidates. II is those
who hold that the convention did not do
Its legitimate work who will have nothing
to do with the men it nominated, and who
want to come together for further consid-
GRAFTON. What the gentlemen who
come together next week may say or do,
neither they nor we, nor anybydy else can
tell but they will not make that meeting
meeting for the ratification Of the nomi-
nations at Cincinnati. Whatever else they
mo do, tha,- mill ip1, IL
They have been made fools of once by
others, and they do not propose to come
together now with deliberate intention
of making fools of themselves in precisely
the same way. The meeting is called with
purpose; whereas, it would be called
without one, If those who signed the call
could possibly reconcile themselves to
what has been done at Cincinnati
THE WORLD
The World to-day tells Mr.. Greeley
that the democrats must contribute nine
tenths Of the votes necessary to elect
Greeley and Brown. The democracy
must INSIST on pledge that .hc cabinet
shali be democratic throughout. Mr..
ureeley has said, continues the w orld,
II we are not misinformed that he will
oner the secretary ship of state to Charles
francis Adams, and make Mr.. Trumbull
attorney general, in case he is elected
There could be no better appointments
on the score of personal fitness but the
effect would be to give the liberal repub.
licans three eighths Of the executive in
