Convention at Rochester, to-day
Rochester, May 15.-Thoughth the proceed
ngs OF the Democratic Convention to-day
appear almost tame on paper, they were
highly significant. The election Of Mr..
first as temporary and then as
permanent chairman, meant business, and
he right kind, too. AS chief manager Of
Inc Brooklyn Eagle, he has given his hand ;
and heart to the Cincinnati movement
rom the start, and he is now an earnest
md eloquent advocate of the acceptance of [
IS nominees by the Baltimore Convention.
Ills speech, on taking the chair, drifted ]
steadily and strongly in that direction, and
he enthusiastic cheers which it ELECTED
showed that he carried the Convention with
him. Delegates and the audience applaud
ID Vehemently at the right places. The
peech and the plaudits meant the Cincin-
lati platform and the Cincinnati nominees.
No doubt Baltimore will take the hint and !
isten to the voice of New York.
"The long and exciting discussion on res
buttons and proposed amendments thereto, :
Il regard to the mode of sending delegates
o Baltimore simply showed that the Con-
'ention was intent upon sending thither a
delegation that would act together as a unit,
md cast the vote of New York as unit,
md thus make great power felt. In a
word, the Convention here determined that
he delegates from New York to the Nation
i Convention should all be of one mind,
md should all ultimately vote for one can f
lidate for the Presidency. Not to put a :
ice point on the action ofthe Convention at
Rochester, to-day, on this subject, it means .
)r.Greeley atBaltimOre in July. Murphy and !
)eWOf are known to be open and hearty
or nominating Greeley and Brown. Gov.
Hoffman, it is understood, expresses no
loubt that such viii be the ultimate result.
ord is a confidential friend of Judge
CHURCH, believe. Judge Church has given
Up all idea Of anybody else being nominated ]
t Baltimore except Greeley and Brown.
No body dreams that a single one of the
Whole siXty-eight delegates to Baltimore will
e hostile to the acceptance Of the Cincinnati
ominees. Gov. Seymour was not pres
mt at the Convention. There is no doubt,
owever, that though not exactly on the
icket line, he is moving forward with the {
lain body of the anti-Grant army of DEM Y
