The nomination Of General Dix By
the Republican Convention Of New
York, Is a very popular one. We un-
derstand the nomination was made at
the suggestion Of Thurlow Weed. the
veteran journalist. General Dix Is
very popular In New York, and Will
draw out a full party vote. The Re-
publicans Of that State are very enthu-
siastic and have strong hopes OF being
able to carry it for Grant and Wilson
in the November election.

GREELEY goes Cabling through
New England about the prospects Of
his own election, just as he prophesied
the defeat of Pierce and the election
of Scott In 1852. In speech delivered
at Niagara Falls In that year, he pre-
dicted that Scott would sweep the
Northern States, and that Pierce would
hardly have a corporal's guard Of the
electoral vote. We believe Scott car
riel three or four States.

LONDON, August 17.-Further adyices

Of the rioting there on Thursday. There
were several collisions between tho Pro.

which large number were injured. The
entire city was in an uproar, and the dis.
turbances were only quelled by the most
active exertion Of the police. Many of
the rioters were arrested.

riot has broken out afresh, and severe
fighting Is now going on. A barrack of

wrecked by the mob.

WENDELL PHILLIPS.
On Grant and Greeley,

I
NEW YoRK, August 17.-Mr. Wendell
Phulips has witten 0 letter TO the leading
colo citizens Of Boston, counsellnS
them vote for Grant, In the course 81
which he says -. -.
"My judgment is the exact opposite Of
Mr.. Summers. 1 think every loyal man,
and especially every colored man, should
vote for Gen. Grant, and that the nation
and your race are safe only in tie hands
Of the old, regular Republican party.
N.N / know the defects of Gen.
Grants Administration as well as any
man. / think, distrustful as l was Of
him, am able TO see the good service he
has Unexpectedly rendered tho nation.
But no matter for those defects. At the
most they are not fatal; and events have
lifted President Grant into being to-day
the symbol and representative Of LOYALTY.
The conspiracy between Southern seces.
sionists and Northern copperheads,' Of
which, very naturally, Mr.. Greeley Is the
tool, and, unfortunately, Mr.. Sumner Is
the indorser, and, / think, the dupe, leaves
room but for two parties-those who are
for the nation and those who are against
It. l bate no jot Of my brotherly regard
and sincere esteem for Mr.. Sumner in
thus holding him deceived. The. entire
faith I have In his honesty OF purpose
o6liges me to think him duped.
The only wonder is how this is
possible when tho South Is SO
insolent and shameless in proclaiming her
intentions. The South has long sean
her mistake and often confessed It. The
Tribune itself makes this statement as
late as June, 1871. That mistake was to
contend for her ideas with muskets, and
outside Of the UDion-leaving us the Gov.
ernment and taking herself the part of
Q rebel. She has often announced,
In the last instance by the lips
OF Jefferson Davis-that the cause
was not lost, and must be won by getting
possession of the Government and leaving
US in the opposition. Such Is the present
plot That Mr.. Greeley sees it would
never prevent his aiding 1t. That Mr..
Sumner does not see 1t IS TO me matter of
profound astonishment. At such mo.
ment the regular Republican party be.
comes again the accepted and only
instrument Of resistance, and Grant re.
presents loyalty as Lincoln did in 1861.
.* = = II Gen. Grant is set aside,
who Is offered US in his placer Horace
Greeley. lnsed not tell you, my friends,
what Horace Greeley Is. We abolition.
lists knew him only TOO well in the weary
years OF our struggle. He had enough Of
clear moral vision TO see the Justice Of our
cause. But he never had courage enough
to confess his faith. II events had ever
given him the courage he never would
have had principle enough to risk any
thing tor an idea. A trimmer by nature
and purpose, he has abused even an
American politicians privilege OF trading
principles for success. But for lack Of
ability he would have been the chief time
server Of his aga. I never knew till now
any of his euloglsts so needless and un-
discriminating as even to claim that he
was sincere man."

Hon. W. @. Morlan made speech con.
demning Grant and Greeley in the
strongest terms.
The following resolutions were adopt

l. Res0Ered, By the Democratic party
OF Indiana, that we repudiate with scorn
and indignation the corrupt bargain at
Baltimore whereby the Democratic party
was handed over to a handful of disai-
tected Radicals headed by Horace Gree.
ley. n
2. RcsoEued, That while as aw.abiding
citizens we accept the amendments add.
ed to the Constitution by the party in
power, we still condemn and hold as In
famous, the illegal manner by which their
adoption was secured, and that we will
not join hands to-day with the authors OF
that infamy in paltry scramble for
Office. -,
8. Resolred, That we favor a tariff for
revenue only that we, regard as vicious
and oppressive the whole theory OF pro-
lection, and therefore cannot support for
President the most violent advocate OF
that theory.
4. Resolued, That the delegates to the
National Democratic Convention at Lou.
isvllle are hereby instructed to cast their
votes for Hon: A. P. Edgerton OF Indiana
for Vice President.
8. ResOLOed, That Samuel Glenn of fallen
county, and ]. @. Worcester of Delaware
be appointed delegates TO the Louisville
National Convention, and as many of the
Democrats OF the Ninth Congressional
district as can attend and act as contin.
gents.

Brutal Murder,

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, August IA special
to the Democrat from Fredericktown, No.,
gives an account Of a brutal murder there
yesterday. The dispatch states that
Phillip Schall who was somewhat intoxi.
Gated, while driving some cattle home
hurrahed for Grant, whereupon Thomas
Matthews, young man connected with
some Of the most influential families in
the country, shouted for Greeley and said
he could whip Schall or any other radical
in the country. Schall doGbted this, and
they commenced punching each other,
but were separated. Subsequently Mat.
thews struck Schall and Immediately
fired two shots at him from pistol.
Schall then knocked Matthews down
with his fist and began beating him, but
died almost instantly, being shot through
the head. After Matthews was knocked
down he stabbed SChall with dagger.
Matthews is represented as quarrelsome
man, and had twice before during the day
drawn a pistol on other. men. He was
arrested.

Mr.. Greeley as a Prophet.

There has always been good deal O.
mystery connected with Mr.. Greeley'i
trip through the Southern States yeal
ago. Under pretense of answering Su
invitation to lecture before an agricul.
tural society in Texas, 1t Is generally
believed that the Journey had spolitical
significance, and was intended 10 pave
the way for the possible contingency Of
Mr.. Greeley beng the Democratic candi.
date for the Presidency. At all events,
bis letters written to the Tribune during
the trip ioreshadowed with remarkable
accuracy the state Of things that now
exists, What could be more truthful in
the line of prophecy, for instance, than
the following extract from one OF Mr..
Greeley's letters, dated at Memphis, June
8, 1871, and published in the Tribuns on
the sth OF that month. Speaking Of the
rebels whom he now invites to "shake
hands across the bloody chasm," he says
"They propose to renew the fight, but
not with guns and saber. They expect to
regain, as Democrats, through elections,
the power they lost as rebels through
war; R 4 !
Not only did Mr.. Greeley thus correct.
ly state the objects which the rebels are
now seeking to accomplish by his election,
but he appears to have been let into the
secrets Of the way in which they propose
to do it. He was indiscreet enough to
blab it out, and here It Is as told in the
same letter:
"Tehy will seek to Icoerce enough of Il
(the colored vote into voting the Demo.
cratic ticket to give them q majority Of
the Southern electoral vote for next Presi.
dent"
This game Of trying to "coerce the col.
ored vote" was attempted at the recent
election in North Carolina, and 1t is
probably owing to its partial success that
the Republican majority was not ten
thousand instead of two thousand. II
will, doubtless, be tried on more exten.
sive and systematic scale at the Presiden.
tlal election, and the Republicans of the
South will do well to take q hint from
Mr.. Greeley's indiscreet revelations and
prepare themselves to meet II.
