BACKING DOWN.

There is 10 doubt but that on the day
Greeley and Brown were nominated atCin-
cinnati ex-senator Hendricks, of Indiana
and Hon. George Pendleton, of Ohio, the
leading Democratic politicians of their re-
spective States, endorsed the ticket and
promised to support it. But now that the
Northern Democracy is making its hostil-
ity to the radical ticket" known, these
leaders hasten to say they never commit
ted themselves to it. Both have taken
special pans to announce that they would
not support it. The speech of VOORHEES,
in Congress is i'll the same spirit. 1t is
daily growing more apparent that to save
the party from disintegration a straight
ticket will be nominated at Baltimore.

THE Cincinnati VolkSblaH thinks it sig
niicant that no meeting to ratify the NOM
nations of Greeley and Brown has yet
been held in Cincinpati-the city where
the great convention was held. 1t ven
lures as a reason that not a prominent
English or German speaker, Republican
or Democrat, could be found to make a
speech on such an occasion.

The Brown electoral ticket is but half
converted to Radicalism and can't begin
the canvass until after next July, because
the Electors don't know now, which side
they are to talk on. They don't know
whether to hurrah for Grant, Greeley or
Nasty. They are waiting for orders from
Baltimore. The Banner men ought to
get out and challenge them to the stump.
Wouldn't they make a nice appearance
before the people?

The unconditional Greeley radicals in
Tennessee, headed by the Banner and
Chancellor East, by their bold flank move
ment have badly demoralized the hall
hearted Greeleyites who can not tell
whether they are for him until they are
certain he is to be elected. If the straight
Greeley men will put out their electoral
ticket and show they have some conf
dence in their leader, they will rally the
new converts to the old John Brown AbO-
litionist. The recent convention had SO
little confidence in the election of the Gin
cinnati ticket that they are waiting to see
how the current runs before putting to

missed him two feet, but the only attention
he paid to 1t was to turn his glasses to the
battery that fired it. Polk had in the mean
time separated from the group, and was
walking thoughtfully away with his left side
to the enemy-his head down and his hands
clasped behind him. The second shell fred
at the crowd struck him in the arm, and
passed through the body, tearing out his
heart, and then crushing his right arm above
the elbow. He dropped on one knee, wa
