The Philadelphia Nomination.

The interest Of the week will center
in The doings of the Republican Nation
al Convention ut Philadelphia. There
appears to DO nearly entire unanimity
Tor Grant. and the only interest will be
in the selection OF the second name on
The ticket. A canvass of the delegates
shows large majority to be uucommit-
ted and uninsiruetsd on this point. and
il is possible that there may be some dit
ficulty in agreeing upon the man. But
We will not anticipate. Ere this reaches
our readers We shall probably be on the
ground. and the result will soon thereai-
ter be flashed across the country.

Col. H.-Oh, yes. Well, why amt you in

Col. H.-"Why, you ought to have more than
that"
Cuffee-"Oh, Pm gwine to get more fore m
done. Pm gwine to get house arter while"
There never was more open unblushing colo
nizing than has been done by the Grant Repub-
licans in the Pennsylvania election. From this
city large number of negroes have left for
Pennsylvania, to return after the election there.
Our Committees of the Conservative party should
lose no time in getting list of the negroes who
go to Pennsylvania. They 60 there to vote and
will vote and cannot vote in Virginia when they
return. There can be no trouble about this
matter. We can't prevent their fraudulent vo-
ting in Pennsylvania, but we can prevent their
voting here again. The Conservative party pos
sesses the polls in this State and will not allow
fraud in any shape.
