IL COURT

Mr.. Settle and his friends were formally
presented at Court the other day. They had
a pleasant time of it; and the solemnity of
the occasion of rendering the President his
denomination was tempered with much
hilarity. The laughter of the gods has some
thing Olympan in it, we may imagine; but
the exclamation of Mr.. Settle and friends
was equine, not to say horsey. The
delegation were in fine spirits, and
had left their hosiery determined to do
their whole duty to the country and make the
most of "this pleasing occasion" Having
successfully achieved the establishment of the
President by telling him that he had been
nominated at Philadelphia, the delegation lin
gered a moment with the disclaimer that they
were not sure they had anything more to say.
But Mr.. Storrs of Illinois, with pleasant
Western breeziness, uttered his wish that
somebody would tell the President what ga
"superb Convention they had at Philadelphia.
This happy thought broke the awkward silence,
and Mr. Settle modestly confessed his inadequacy
to the task, and said to Storrs, aforesaid: ".Sup
pose you do it," On this the genial President
commented "That is a speech to which
"could appropriately respond. 1t is short and
"to the point" This began the fun; and the
official report says the sally of the President
occasioned general merriment.n Observe,
we would not call this sally;' it might be
-" soreheaded" in us to use such an undignifed
term but the official reporter, who, notebook
in hand, sketched this historic scene, dis
tinctly says "saly."
The ice was now fairly broken, and Mr..
Settle penetrated with the warm, champagney
feeling inspired by the wit OF the President,
wiped his laughing eyes, and solemnly averred
that no mortal pen, no, not even that which
writes for "the public prints" could describe
the unanimity of the Convention it was be-
yond the powers OF description. As for its
solidity of vote, its one-mindedness. he had
never seen anything equal to it in all North
Carolina But what be wanted was to tell the
President what he and his friends were to do
in November. Then up spoke Mr.. Paul Stro-
bach. who came from Alabama with the Ger
man vote in his pocket With an eye on
contingent post-Ofices, he was careful to
saw that he was a Vice-President of the
denomination Convention and a representa-
tive German. "Put me down for 100000
=" German votes in November he said, with
lofty mien, and wiped his beaming brow.
Emboldened thus, Gen. Solomon ID. Meredith
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1872-06-12

said that he, too, never saw such C0nven-
ton as that at Philadelphia. This nomination,
Sir was unprecedented, Sir, in the history OF
the United States, Sir. Some people reckon
Indiana as a doubtful State, but Gen. Solomon
d. Meredith then and there pledged her fifteen
electoral votes for Grant. He wouldn't be
sure about the precise majority; but he would
bet on the fifteen electoral votes. The Pres
ident, pleased, made another sally. He said:
AT any rate, don't let your people vote but
once.n Whereat there was more laughter"
At least, it is so set down in the official re-
port.
Recovering from their bOisterOus hiarity
Mr.. b. f. Cowley mOdestly pledged Georgia:
eve will do the best we can for you" where
upon the President launched another witticism
and said "1hat is as much as Georgia can
"do,n at which there was "great laughter
again. These repeated sallies warmed the dele
CATION up to the highest pitch of enthusiasm,
and they went on with their pledges. Mis-
souri, and Michigan were successfully prom
ised, and cOlored delegate from Virginia,
with tropical fervOr, set $4,000 as the minimum
of Grants majority in the Old Dominion. In
the roll-call of the States, Texas turned up with
the ingenious remark from Mr.. A. ID. Norton,
that the Democrats of his State, rather
than give up their organization to Greeley
and Brown, would surrender to Gen. Grant,
as they did in 1865. Mr.. Norton evidently
belongs to that noble class of whom Senator
Flanagan's Mr.. Carter said at the Philadelphia
Convention that they wanted strong gov,
eminent to make them behave themselves
There was no jOcund din at this sally; the
President had not said it only Norton and
the mention of Greeley and Brown, somehow,
created an uncomfortable feeling, and the
delegation, recovering the gravity of the occa-
sion, cast an admiration of their departing
presence on the military doorkeepers and
went beaming down the Avenue to cengratu-
late Mr. Henry Wilson on the unanimity Of
the Convention.

onstration, as Mr.. Howe's report admitted anu
justified the practice. The system OF seizures
and compromises is stingingly reviewed anu
condemned. 1t is shown how the system
encourages fraud. The wanton and caprlclOus
seizure of the books and interruption OF the
business of respectable firms is strongly
described. The fact is shown that the Gov

and the means by which he gained 1t. The
history of Mr.. Murphy's term of office receives
attention as shining specimen OF what taxes
Mace under an Administration which pre-
tends to desire a reform OF the Clvh
Service. Not only was Mr. Murphy
sustained in his efforts to make the
Custom-house a mere machine for coercing
conventions, but it is shown that he took this
course by virtue of a positive understanding
with the President. In fact, under any other
conception of the duty of civil officers, the
appointment-of Mr.. Murphy would have been
an absurdity. lie was good for nothing but
to manage ward meetings. His own deposit

"plainest and most essential duties of his place,

We print, this morning voluminous dis
patches from different parts of the country
which strongly mark the drift of political
opinion. In Iowa, the Democratic State Con-
vention has unanimously Endorsed the Cincin-
natl Platform and accepted its nominees; the
delegates to the Baltimore Convention were
instructed accordingly. In South Carolina
where carpet-bag and military rule have com
bined to aflict the State, the Democrats, IN
their State Convention, receive with cheers
and enthusiasm resolutions accepting Cincin-
natl. Kansas has done the same. The conven-
ton at Indianapolis seems to be grand affair,
and the reports which come up from all parts OF
the State show what hold the Reform move
ment has on the people. These signs OF the
times will be multiplied from day to day
henceforth.

Merchants and importers will have no occa-
sion to thank the Senate for any action on the
bills intended for their relief at the Custom
house. The programme laid out for the Pres
idential campaign did not include the
passage of the carefully drawn meas
ures regulating Custom-hOuses and the
seizure of books and invoices; 80 these useful
and much-desired propositions went by the
board as so much useless lumber. Action on
these bills was expected by the merchants
who had a hand in their preparation, but they
must wait for more peaceful times for their
enactment into laws.

document to be read in the gushing and devoted

inevitable or not have noticed that whenever any
of these mistakes have been mentioned all the Grant
newspapers have resolutely denied that they were
