A MEDLEY OF OPINIONS.

CINCINNATI, May 8, 1872.
Mr.. Grecleys nomination affects people here
thus: THE old free traders outraged. Southern
democrats are delighted Old wings are notified.
The Irish are tickled. The Germans are cold and
complaining, saying in suggesting way, too much
water in mine. On the whole, the nomina-
ton discourages the intellectual men, the
agitators and brains of the movement. 1t
pacines conservatives and people who want
sentiment and quaint character in the canvas
The Southern democrats will fight desperately to
compel the democratic party to support and endorse
1t. The New York moneyed democracy will struggle
to ''pOOhpO 1t. In much OF the mississippi
region, in the Northwest 1t will do as well as any
ticket. In Northern New England, particularly in
Vermont it will create enthusiasm, and In the
Middle States 1t win go popularity and with rush.
The State Of Ohio is most disturbed about 1t.
OHIO sECEDEs.
That State this afternoon, in tumultous meet
ing, headed by the two Brink erholls, repudiated
the choice, denounced Geeeley as an imbecile and
Brown as swindler and a sell. The BrinkerhOffs,
however, live In the same town John Sherman and
talk Grant with suspicious magnanimity.
PROSPECTS OF THE TICKET.
1t win take several days to ascertain the position.
In my Judgment the nomination can be made to
carry Missouri, Kansas, Minnesota, Michigan, Wis
consin, Nebraska Pennsylvania, Vermont and
every State of the border and South.
DAVIS DEAD.
Davis men keep up hopes of a democratic nom-
nation for Davis. II that justice has any pride of
character he will not tempt fortune twice. He
showed no strength here. The press and the con-
trolling influences OF the country spewed him out.
II the democratic party try him 1t will be beaten.
Trumbull beaten by the stupidity OF the Illinois
al fiai
Davis movement Davis is denounced all sides
as fraud. He slew his fellow citizen Trumbull.
and yet poled not enough votes to dignity himself
The great States Of New York, Pennsylvania and
the South, together with the Missouri combination,
made Greeley the candidate.
THE SOUTH FOR GREELEY.
The South was for Greeley from the first. New York
was for him from State pride. Pennsylvania was
for him in order not to alarm tariff interest and
give to Grant. Greeley, to succeed, ought to say
something speedily and kindly for the free traders,
who not yet in open rebellion to the ticket but
very much hurt. He must say some generous words
to these-must endeavor to think Of them literally,
for they are the soul Of the movement and can yet
be recovered to it.
OPINIONS OF GREELEY.
Here ore some opinions. Gratz Brown says Gree
ley is the chvalrous spirit of the place. To write
three columns day six days in the week and be so
little of fool is craftsmanship Judge Brlnkerhofr
says Greeley is nuisance in the way Of all reform
ers he Is not man OF reason, and only has
q smattering OF odds and ends OF things;
the country Is not safe with him;
Grant Is failure bnt we can trust him." Colonel W,
Grosvenor, of Missouri, says eve discouraged
Carl Schurz says he has received by telegraph pro-
tests from everywhere this afternoon and that the
Germans do not like it. He adds, 81 retire to sleep
If ! can; perchance to dream" Fitz Henry War

make combination with the democrats and
carry the State from Greeley. Carl Schurz SAYS,
81 have no encouragement and come into the
Convention and by the Convention l win abide"
Horace White says II am not feeling well and will
try to feel better over our affair tomorrow"
David A. Wells says The Of free trade is set
back twenty years; will go to Europe and do
nothing TO help Grant; how can l be happy?''
Ed ward Atkinson says 81 want to 90 fishing: am
sold out; protection, like victorious nightmare
most popular in the United States; he viii carry
Iowa" Mr.. Jayne, brother-in-law OF Senator Trum-
ns Ct ticket is ns choice The
says, 81 am for the ticket personally; ! am beaten,
but can't be wheeled In for Grant" Long John
be on fire tonight everywhere for Uncle Horace"
Frank Stems, Of Richmond, says, at is
noble ticket and will sweep Virginia and
peace" Colonel Mcclure says, ave still
have to make big fight in Pennsylvania but we
can win with these men, Mr.. Dorshemer, a lead
ing free trader, Of New York, says:-"l voted for
Greeley every time He will be next President
Secretary d. Floyd, Of the Free Trade League,

neral guns Of this Convention" Judge Casey,
