ing tonight on the question Grant and Gree
ley" The judge said he should have preferred
to vote for Adams, Trumbull, Cox, Chief Justice
Chase, or dr0esbeck, but the choice now was be-
tween Grant and Greeley, and he tould not sup
port Greeley, as neither his character, the MAN
ner of his nomination, or his surroundings en-
titled him to support. The speaker went on to
give the history OF the origin Of the movement
which led to the Cincinnati convention, and of
the difficulty experienced in agreeing upon
platform, especially the tariff plank, and said
that though others beside himself thought
that in the resolutions adopted a state
ment of the principles of the movement
was wanting in an essential element, still they
looked forward with hope to the probable nomi-
nation of Adams, as likely to lift them into n
clearer atmosphere; but when Greeley and
Brown were nominated, he and many of his
friends left the convention in anger, which has
not yet cooled. HOadey claimed that under
Greeley there could he no hope of civil service
reform, and it would be an act of folly for the
American people to elect him president.
