DIX PREFERRED TO HERMAN.
The bootblacks Of Park row were quite astonished
on Monday by the arrival here of crowd Of politi-
cal gentlemen from various sections OF the Union,
whose sudden coming and confident eclGt OF bear
ing were equally surprise to the uninitIated. The
AstOr H0use-that citadel OF 30 many devoted
''bolts"-was the scene Of portentous confer.
ence which far collapsed in solemn Importance that
Of the famous committee which was charged few
days since with the hercuean task of coaxing Mr..
Charles O'Conor from his fortress Of resolution.
Most OF the delegates arrived on the same day,
and walked with stately steps, selfconscious Of
THEIR NOBLE NATIONAL MISSION,
into the corridors Of the hotel, where they were
received with open arms by the embarrassed
walters. Yesterday morning the gentlemen from
the provinces'' arose at somewhat unusually
early hour; were without exception, shaved
Clearly and RECALLED with fragrant vands and then
lOunged smilingly at the bar beverages of the
true democratic flavor, only more orthodox still,
perhaps, than those drank by the embassy from
Louisville when Influenced by o like mighty pur-
pose. .h-
motion, Mr.. James Worreil, Of Pennsylvania, was
called to the chair with Mr.. j. H. Wilson, Of Ala

elaborate speech, In which he reviewed at length
the political history of the nation and the features
Of the present campaign, and contended with
strong reasoning that it was the bounden duty OF
every democrat to support Grant and Wilson.
Other speeches were made, in which determined
protests were uttered against caucus and conven-
ton conspiracies and the perversion OF true demo-
cratic principles. The following resolutions were
unanimously adOpted:-
