TAKES NO STOCK INIC.

A confidential" circular was distribute
in Cincinnati on the goth Of June among
Democrats and Liberal Republicans OPP
posed to the endorsement of Greeley by
the Baltimore Convention. The design Of
the authors Of the circular was to assemble
in Baltimore, at the same time with the
Democratic National Convention, a body Of
respectable, representative Democrats,
equal in numbers to the delegates to the
Convention, to protest against the nomina-
ton of Mr.. Greeley, and to organize bolt
against him if he should be made the De-
mocratic candidate. The Cincinnati En-
gltircr stated sometime since that it had the
best Of reasons for asserting that this circu-
lar. which was understood to have come
from Louisville, originated in The Grant
Headquarters in that city. 1t appears that
copies of this circular were sent to the New
York World, with permission TO print it
about the 4th of July. That paper says in
its issue of July 8:
ave take no stockln this disorganizing
movement. So long as there remained
the slightest chance of defeating Mr.. Gree
lev at Baltimore, we spared no effort,
sirunk from no responsibility, and gave no
heed to the yelping Of TRAY, Blanche, and
Sweetheart, little dogs and all" We
thought it, and still think it, a nomination
unfit to be made. But we have had our
say; and finding our strenuous efforts, and
the strenuous opposition of many Of our
ablest Democratic journals of the coun-
try all in vain, we submit to the inevitable,
with such grace as we may, and decline
to take any part in VAIN
attempt to stem the current. We have
never contemplated any opposition TO this
strange nomination outside Of the Demo
cratic organization. We have constantly
daclared our purpose to submit TO the judg-
men, and be bound by the action ,ofth9Dem
ocratic National Convention; and now,
when the composition of that body, and the
committals of the greater part of the dele
gates, are known, we trust we have sense
enough TO understand the situation.
GAL honest patriots desire the over
throw of the present corrupt, incapable
and scandalous Administration. There IS
no possibility of defeating Gen. Grants re-
election except through the Democratic
organization"

CALIFORNIA is once more rejoicing in
an abundant harvest. The yield of wheat
this year is larger than has ever before been
known in that State. For the last two or
three years the grain crops have been def
Gent, owing to the drought and bad
weather. But this year the crop is all that
could be desired both as regards quality
and qua nifty.

The Rochester Democrat, CRepublican)
now one of Greeley's bitterest detractoIS,
some feur years ago wanted to make him
Governor of the State, and held him up as
a paragon of all the human virtues. He
was represented as the purest, the most
patriotic and the most popular of men.
"With Horace Greeley for Governor" said
the Democrat, eve should at least be sure
of an honest, pure and economical admins,
tration. We should be sure that the Em-
pire State would stand firm for freedom,
eIualitySand true democracy. Every good
aud noble cause would be promoted, aud all
corrupt jobs and all dishonest men dis
countenanced." Such was the universal
opinion of Greeley among the Republicans

A CURIOUS IMPOsTURE.

Berlin CORES pondent Of the New York
Sun communicates 10 that paper the facts
of q curious imposture which has just been
exposed. The victims are the celebrated
.authoress, Louise Muhlbach, Hon. George
Bancroft, the American Minister at Berlin,
and Miss Ida Meyerbeer, daughter of the
composer of that name. 1t appears that
Mrs. Muklbach was the correspondent of an
American, who wrote for one of the West
ern dailies. In her correspondence she
me ntioned the fact that the Hon. George
Ban lcroft was about to marry Miss Ida
Meyerbeer. 1t was too piquant piece
Of news for a correspondent of a
daily paper to keep, so the fact was daily
chronicled. From America it reached Ger
many, and was spread abroad there, much
to the annoyance of Miss Ida, who was, it
appears, really engaged to the Baron Won
Teller, and Mr.. BaHcroG-who is only in
Iove with himself. An interview with
Nj rs. Muhlbach, brought to light the fact
that there was spurious George Ban
croft in the field, who at the fash
ionable watering place of Pyrmont,
had passed for the real
America n Ambassador, ard deceived
many pc rsons, Mrs. Muhlbach among the
Tslmber- Ali this was some years ago.
Last month this mysterious stranger is
said to have been discovered. At one of
the eading hotels in Ems, the fashionable
water ing place in Western Germany, there
stopped for some time an elderly gentle
man, who bad registered his name as Lord
Chichest, II, and who borrowed a cnnsidera-
bic sum Cf money from his landlord or a
check of the Westminster Bank of London.
The cheek came back protested, the
officers of The London bank reporting that
they knew of DO such person as Lord Chi
chester. As matter of course the elderly
gentleman was arrested, and an examina-
ton of his trunks showed at once conclu-
sively that he was a swindler. He had with
him thousands of new visiting cards, bear
ing the names Of distinguished statesmen
and diplomatists. About one hundred of
them bore the name of the Hon. George
Bancroft.
