The Louisville Convention.

day. There is no longer any
doubt that the convention will
be held, and from present indi-
cations it will be a formidable
affair. An Indiana dispatch to
the Cincinnati Commercial
a Greeley organ-of Tuesday,
recognizes the situation In the
following words:
"TLe Democracy are becom-
ing alarmed in this State. From
present indications Indiana
will be represented by an
abler and more respectable del
egation at Louisville than she
was at Baltimore. Rush C un
ty will be represented in that
Convention, and if a ticket is
nominated there composed of
men OF national regulations a
very large vote will be polled
in this, as well as in nearly ev-
cry county in this State, for it.
The masses of the Democracy
never did take to Greeley with
a relish, and since the North
Carolina election they haye no
hope of his success, conse-
quently they will vote for The
straight ticket.
In Fort Wayne, on Monday,
Hon. Will. Q Moreau made an
able speech before a conven-
tion Of the Ninth District De-
mocracy. T Q convention
adopted resolutions repudlat-
ing Greeley and appointed
delegates to the Louisville con-
vention. In Johnson county
similar action was taken, and
the nominee for State Senator,
who had previously announced
his consent to support Greeley,
took occasion to repudiate him,
and declare his adhesion to
the Louisville convention. The
Delaware State Democratic
convention has declared for
Louisville, and SO it goes in
numerous instances which
might be cited. Whether the
convention will carry with it
any considerable number of
voters will depend on its own
action. The prospect now is
that the nominee for President
will be Hon. Chas. O'Conor,
of New York. Should such be
the result and the nominee
for Vice President be a worthy
man, and the platform be in
accord with the character and
principles of the nominee, the
tc1et will, command the re-
spect of the thinking men of
both parties, and will undoubt-
edly develop a strength which
will astonish the country.
Mr.. .O'Conor, who now stands
foremost as the probable can.
didate, is a gentleman against
whose private or public char.
acter no word of detraction
has ever been uttered. One
Of the most eminent lawyers
in tie country, his counsel
and advice has long been
looked up to in matters of
state, as well on account of
his purity of character as his
extensive legal knowledge
Having an income from his
practice larger perhaps than
that of any officer in the
United States, he has never
sought office, has been perfect
ly Independent of the rings
and factions of his own party,
and when the Tammany frauds
were discovered, he promptly
took the field against the
theiyes, and is now conducting
the suits against them before
the courts. Should the politl-
cal chances place him in the
presidential chair he would
havecthe. ability to fiji it, and
the country would feel assured
of, an honest, safe administra-
tion of the laws. This much
we can say for Mr.. O'Conor in
all truth.

The Letter OF Gen. DIX Declar-
ing for Grant.

Ing for Grant.
ONE Of our Greeleyite friends
inquired of US very anxiously
last week why we didn't "pub.
lish the speech of some good
Democrat and not that rebel
Mosby3' We published Mosby't
speech, not on account of any
admiration we bad for the man
or his record-which has been
entirely too Democratic for our
taste-but because it contain.
ed many truthful admissions in
regard to the magnanlmity ol
Gen. Grants course toward the
rebels, which they have here
tofore attempted to deny. But
we are always anxious to ac-
commodate the public taste,
and this week we give the let
ter Of that sterling old Demo
crat, Gen. DIX, and will follow
it probably next week, by the
speech, at Columbus, of that
old Ohio heel-horse, Gen, Joe
Geiger. Our friend shall not
hunger and thirst after true
Democratic literature. Here
is Gen. Dix's letter:
WEsTHAMPToN, July 81, 1872.
DEAR SIR-Your letter Of the
18th inst, asking for my aid to
procure a speaker for a Gree
ley meeting at Hancock, was
sent to me while was in New
England, and | have been una
BILE until now to acknowledge
its reception.
lido not understand OIL what
ground you considered yourself
authorized to address such a
request to me. If you had been
familiar with the course Of my
public life, and equally so with
Mr.. Greeley'F, you could not
have supposed me capable of
advocating his election to the
office of President of the Unit
ed States without imputing to
me the utter abandonment Of
all political principle.

be as "unstable as water" per-
petually floundering Ito carry
out the Scriptural figure) amid
the surges of opinion, and de.
ficient In all the requisites es-
sential to firm, steady and
consistent administration of the
Government.
4. Because he has usually
been found among the most
extreme ultraiststs on the great
questions of political and So
cial duty, which have been
brought under public discus
sion during the last quarter
of century.
3. Because he has been the
advocate (and in this instance
persistently) of that most un-
just and unequal commercial
system which is destroying our
mercantile and shipping inter-
ests and heaping up enormous
accumulations of wealth in the
protected classes to the impov-
erishment Of all others.
4. Because he is associated,
in relations more or less init
mate with some of the chief
plunderers of the city of New
York, justly warranting the ap-
prehension that through his
completely or his facile disposi-
ton, the same system of fraud
and corruption which has dis
graced the Municipal Govern
ment of this city may be car
ried to more infamous extremes
in the administration of the
Federal Government; and,
8. Because in the darkest
hour of the country's peril,
when a traitorous combination
had been formed to overthrow
the Government, he openly
counseIed the cowardly policy
of non-resistance and acq quies
