THE MEETING IN PETERsBURG.--The
certified proceedings of the delegate con-
yention held in Petersburg on Friday night.
for the purpose of selecting delegates to the
Republican State Convention, did not reach
us in time for notice IN our Saturdays is
sue. We published the names Of the dele
gates chosen however. Hon. Franklin
Wood was president of the convention
Peter Archer, vice-president w. A.
Moody, secretary, and Q. M. Hamlin, Jr.,
assistant secretary. The convention passed
resolutions favoring the denomination of
Gen. Grant for the presidency; instructing
delegates to vote only for delegates to the
National Convention who will vote for his
denomination; and requesting that each
Congressional district may be allowed to
elect its own delegates to the National Con-
vention. The Hon. James III. Platt and
Peter G. Morgan were then chosen to rep
resent Petersburg in the State Convention,
as already stated, and j. p. Evans and G.
May elected altcrnates.
The following resolution, offered by the
Hon. Franklin Wood, was adopted without
8 dissenting voice:
"Resolred, That this Convention heartily
indorses the course pursued by our repre-
sentative in Congress, the Hon. James III.
Platt, Jr., and that we promise him faith
ful support in the future, should it be his
pleasure to allow his name to be used for
the nomination from this district"
Great unity of feeling pervaded the
meeting, foreshadowing the continued sue
cess of the Republicans in Petersburg.

Correspondence Baltimore Sum-.


WASHINGTON. November 14.-Thcre seems
to he a determined speculative interest
which is bent on forcing the Secretary Of the
Treasury to increase the volume Of currency.
Yesterday appeals were made to him as we'll
Us to the President to buy two and half
millions instead of one million Of bonds,
but when absolute refusal was made and
it became evident that nothing would be
done now to help Wall street except in
case Of actual panic the entire stock mar
ket declined. The Secretary has been again
appealed to to-day to come forward with
some measure Of relief by purchasing more
bonds or putting out additional currency
in some other way, but has continued deaf
ear to these entreaties, believing that they
are made in speculative interest only, and
not from any real apprehension of panic.
The impression Is well founded that the
Secretary of the Treasury will recomm end
Congress in his forthcoming report to au-
thorize the retunding of the bonded six per
cent. debt into five per cent. bond instead
Of a four and four and half per cent. bond,
as heretofore suggested. At five per cent,
and with an increase in the commissions and
the payment of the interest in London on
bonds held abroad, the Secretary has been
assured that he can successfully fund the re-
thorized, and the rest of the matured five
tWenties into five per cent. bond. 1t has
not transpired whether the Secretary will
again recommend that feature Of his last re-
port which virtually compelled national
banks to use the new bond or else release
their banking privileges.

1yanI sys;th Il aloug that street. Wien they
reached the front 81 the Monunfental Hotel
formerly the Washington there was pause
10 settle the way Of approach TO the Square.
Unfortunately, one Of the small wheels in
front stopped over culvert, the arch OF
which gave way, and the wheel sunk to the
axle. On the signal for starting the men
brought the pressure on the ropes that had
been sufficient to move the ponderous
weight, and it moved not. The motive
power, being intelligent, was aware at once
that new obstacle was in the way ana
fearing injury might be done by attempting
to force 1t without knowing what 1t was,
an examination was mades and the
cause being ascertained, ali prepared TO go
ahead. The signal was given, and the force
was put on and steadily increased until the
wheel was drawn up out of the hole and the
vehicle moved onward.
The line moved TO Broad and along Broad
to Tenth street, thence along Tenth to the
Square, across the gutter and curb and
through an opening which had been made
by tearing down the iron railing around the
Square. AS soon as the front wheels struck
the soft earth of the Square they sank down
until the front axle rested upon the ground,
and yet the men drew the great wagon
steadily'on, dragging upon the ground until
1t reached Its destination.
These omitted facts, we are sure, will give
our country friend an exalted idea OF the
irresistible nature of human power when
Droperly concentrated and directed.

CANDIDATES FOR SoLICIToR-G EHERAL.--Mr
Crounse, who is very good authority gene
rally, telegraphs to the Times that "the ap-
pointment Of Mr.. Phillips, of North Caro-
lima, to the office OF Soiicitor-General is fully
decided upon, and will be announced Off
cially as soon as Colonel Bristow's resigna-
ton is received" Another correspondent,
however, telegraphs that Ex-Governor Wells,
of Virginia, will be appointed Solicitor.Gene-
raj. Governor Wells has just bought a
$4,000 house in Washington, and evidently
comes to stay in some capacity. He is cred
tied with having made the most effective
single speech in the campaign-that in which,
taking the opposition text of "Grant the
dummy" lie showed what this dummy had
done for bis country. But here comes an
other telegraphing authority, who atfirms
off-hand that "the appointment of a Solici-
tor-General to fill the existing vacancy will
be given to J. J. Roberts, Of North Carolina,
and now reporter of the Supreme Court OF
that State" Probably Phillips is the man,
WashinGtOn Star.

six Liberal Republicans only Mr.. TrumbulPs
term expires in 1873. The House, under
the new appoltionment, will consist of two
hundred and ninety members, of which the
Republicans will probably have two-thirds.
This body, however, will not organize till
December, 1878, while the new senators will
take their seats at the executive session in
March.

Il Decided No Principle, No Policy.

Il Decided No Principle, No Policy
We observe that the leading keptoaeau
r,apers Of the North, especially the New
York Tyn,es, claim that the late Pressdensial
election proclaimed the generai approoa'''p
OF General GRAMS policy, etc.
OF course It is to be expected that these
n nre.ses should put up such claim. But
never had claim less ground to stand upon
], The election decided nothing in the way OF
principle or policy. It decided that General
GRANT was to be President for second
term, and that is all.
We do not beleYe that at this late day our
feliow.citizens OF the North voted from any
feeling of hatred to the South, or any antici-
nation that their votes were to continue Tue
inequality of the National Administration 10
its oflious determinations against the south'
7s,.y knew rs well as we did the purposes
of that inequality, and Of the falsehood and
elapirap which had been for season dis
s.mipated against the South; and believing
rs we did that the need Of them-be II
imaginary or not-had died out, they voted
for a continuation in power of those who
had employed them.
Thus we are satisfied that nothing was
really Observation-Disclosures the orators such
rs boutwell, might say-to widen the
.bIoody chasns." General GRANT was, per-
force of circumstances, the hero of the war
and by custom and precedent was entitled 10
govern for his term, which was construed
10 be eight years. There was world Of
force 10 this idea-enough Of itself to turn
the scale. But the people were weary and
tired and opposed to change. The money
power Affected to fear u change, and an i'm
mense part of the opposition party were In
different and suIen and stayed at home. OPP
posed to GRANT was q writer for the press
n philosopher and philanthropist-a grca
and good man, but presenting in an election
contrast upon question of personal force
and array OF subservient followers the wides,
possible.
No. The election decided nothing but thai
GRANT should be President, and tits expected
everywhere that his second term is to be
quiet, and that he will abandon all of the
machinery of southern oppression; all the
unequal national measures which, by great
mistake, he employed during his first term
1t IL expected that he will at last have
!. policy, and that that will be for the paciflca'
ton and harmony of the country, and the
establishing for himself good fame amongst
the people. This Is expected Of him; and
he will be recreant to himself as well as to
the country If he disappoints the nation.
No "policy" was considered at the cleo
ton and none approved. The var is over
the !" bloody chasm" tilled--and future cleo
tons will in no sense turn upon sectional
issues.
