Greeley and the Democracy.

The Times has an elaborate edito-
rial article, this morning, in which it
is claimed that the Democracy are
masters of tho situation. The plain
English of its rigmarole is this -

tween two Republican candidates,

This is rather premature confes-
sion of bad faith, but it only serves
the sorebeads right. They deserve
just such treatment. Desertcrs them.

of motives, greed of office, they had
no right to expect tair-dealing.
But the Tines reckons without its

tinctly ayowed the very reverse

with all his faults and weaknesses,
would, we are confident, withdraw
from the contest and support the reg.

Grant or any other man, if convinced
that he could in tina. way only defeat
the Democratic ticket. Such change
OF front could be effected by him at
any tlmc. BY coming cut with an IN

Death OF T. Buchanan Read.

The telegraph brings the not un-
expected intelligence of the death, at
the Astor House, New York, of the
poet painter, T. Buchanan Read, who
had been Ill for two or three weeks
past with pleuro pneumonia. Al
though Mr.. Read, in neither branch
of his artistic career, had displayed
great genius, still he had achieved a
wide spread popularity IN this cour-
try, and the news Of his death viii! be
received with very general regret in
both artistic and literary circles
throughout the United States and in
Italy, where he had spent many years
of his life. He was born in Chester
county, Pa, March -, 1922. At
the age OF II he went to Cincinnati,
and entered sculptor's studio, .but
soon gave up the plastic art and
studied painting In 1911 he remov.
ed to New York, and shortly after
ward to Boston, where he was chiefly
engaged in portrait painting. Hees-
tablished himself in Philadelphia IN
1916; visited Europe in 1850; re
turned to Cincinnati, and again went
toEurope in 1858. After long res
idence there, he returned to Cincin-
natl in 1853. Since that time he has
resided mainly in Europe, and at
tho time OF his recent illness had but
just returned from Italy, on visit
to his freuds IN this country. Mr..
Read was both poet and painter

their fairness of judgment, he may

that such law has not been enacted

The question OF time for holain..
the State Convention is attracting
some attention. The Convention ii
March instructed the Genital Com
miltec to call it in jane. Ii the In.
s;ruc,ions OF that Convention are all
judged to have no obligatory force,
they should merit at least the respect
Of all Republicans, and be allowed
considerable weight.
1t seems TO us that the Goth Of
June, the date suggested by the last
State Convention, is late enough. In
August or September, the months
suggested by various papers, no
farmer can leave his business without
great pecuniary loss. 1t is doubtful
ii it would be we'll to exclude that
whole class from the Convention.
