ALEX, II STEPHENS in his great
work IA constitutional war between the
States," gives the followi ng as his first
interview with Gen. Grant and his i'm
preston of the man:
was never so much disappointed in my
life, in my previously formed opinions, of
either the personal appearance or bearings
Of any one, about whom l had read and
heard so much. The disappointment, more
over, was in every respect favorable and
agreeable. was instantly struck with the
great simplicity and perfect naturalness Of
his manners, and the entire absence of every
thing like affectation, show, or even the
usual military air or mien of men in his
position. He was plainly attired, sitting in
log cabin busily writing on small table
by kerosene lamp. II was night when
we arrived. There was nothing in his ap.
pearance or surrounding which indicated
his official rank. There were neither
guards nor aids about him. Upon Col.
Babcock's rapping at his door, the response,
"Come in," was given by himself, in a
tone of voice, and with cadence which l
can never forget. His conversation was
easy and fluent, without the least effort or
restraint. In this nothing was SO closely
noticed by me as the point and terseness
with which he expressed whatever he said.
He did not seem either to court or avoid
conversation, but whenever he did speak,
what he said was directly TO the point, an d
covered the whole matter in few words.
l saw before being with him long, that he
was exceedingly quick in perception, and
direct in purpose, with q vast deal more of
brains than tongue, as ready as that was al
his command.

WE clip the following from the But
falo Courier Ga Greeley Democratic
sheet) of July 18th, showing clearly
that all is not lovely in their camp.
Query-If nearly one half the Demo
Gratis of Georgia will vote for Greeley,
for whom will the other more than one
half vote
NEW YORK July II.
The Posfs Washington special says; At
q consultation bet ween some Of the most
prominent supporters of the Greeley ticket
here last night, Senators Fenton, schurz and
Horace White, were present. Their object
seems to be to bring some influence to bear
ON Senator Sumner. Mr.. Fenton assures
Mr.. Sumner that New York will give Mr.
Greeley 10, 900 majority, and Sehurz tells
him that Missouri is good for AZ. 600;
A number of delegates to the Baltimore
convention are here. While those from the
south seem to be enthusiastic in favor Of the
democratic candidate, ii is noticeable that
many of those from the West still appear TO
give only hall way support.
A prominent Georgia democrat says that
nearly enc half the democrats in that state
will vote for Greeley.

During the Stokes trial in New York,
on Monday, Stokes himself was placed
upon the stand. The main points of
his evidence were statements to the
effect that he knew Fisk to be desper-
ate, u1scrupulous, vindictive man; that
he had threatened his life, and that on
the day of the shooting, and just before
1t took place. Fisk had drawn a revol-
yer with which to shoot him, and that
this was why he fred the shots which
sent Fisk to his grave. Miss Josie
Mansfield was also sworn, and her testi-
mony went for the most part, to show
that Fisk had on several occasions
threatened the life of Stokes. Other
witnesses were examined, but their tes-
timony was unimportant.

The Baltimore Convention.

The quadrenial festival of what used
to be proudly called the "great Demo-
cratic party" is over and its doings have
passed down into the archives OF history
not 80 much on account OF their In
tripsic value, but to be laid away as
memorial of the entire overthrow OF the
party who for eighty years held the po-
l;tical views of this Government. But
what did this convention do! is ques'
ton asked everywhere throughout this
broad land. Did it nominate candidates
for President and Vice President OF the
limited States. Did it unfurl its banner
70 the political breeze and bid defiance
to all its foes? Yook, look and listen in
vain for an affirmative answer. The
convention did nothing of the kind; 1t
did not even attempt to do anything OF
the kind. It did not nominate candl-
dates for President, and Vice PRESIDENT
of the United State, it did not adopt a
platform of principles, not even so
much as the groaning Of an original
resolution was heard from any one OF the
1872 delegates comprising the body All
this was done for them by their masters
the deceivers and tricksters of the Gin
cinnati pie-bald mass meeting OF May
1st, 1872.
It is true 1872 men claiming to repre-
sent the Democratic party of the United
States, the party that has always boasted
Thomas Jefferson as its father, that
elected Monroe, Madison, Jackson, Van
Buren, Polk, Pierce, and Buchanan
went through the farce of organizing
and remembered Jefferson by appointing
his grandson Thomas Jefferson Ran,
dolph, of Virginia, as their temporary
chairman.
Their man "Friday" August Bel
mont, called the convention to order, de
Iyered a short lecture in which ht
eulogized Gen. Grant as great soldier
but repeated as we'll as he could, th'
lesson learned by Sumner o
Dana of the New York Sun, and re
cited May 31st, 1872, in the unlte'
States Senate.
The Cincinnati tricksters were Their
as thick as toads after thunder shower
and on Wednesday morning when tn
convention met to nominate candidate
they said here are your men-Greele
and Brown, and here is your platform
and presented the thing invented b.
VIM. B. Tweed, and others at Cincin
natl as ambiguous as Caligula laws, an
the men and the platform were swa
lowed without greasing, without S
much as an explanatory speech. lib
most rigorous gag law conceivable wa
rigidly enforced.
Thus the convention began, so
ended, aud 50 ended the Democrat
party.

The State of Michigan is entitled to
the credit of having taken the lead in
legislation against accidental murder.
In that State, the pointing of frearm,
loaded or unloaded, at a fellow-citizen.
is adjudged misdemeanOr, punishable
by fine and imprisonment, and if dam
age comes of such criminal folly, the
perpetrator is held responsible, pecuniar-
lily and criminally. Other States would
do well to pass similar law. If every
man who points gun or pistol at fel-
low being were sent to prison for six
months, it would probably have a salu-
tary effect in stopping the Practice
missouri Democrat.
