COUNTY CONVENTIONS.

The reports from the county conven-
tions begin to come in. This is a healthy
sign. 1t is evidence that the Democracy
are beginning to wake up and prepare for
the struggle. The Grant party are at work
diligently. They have revenue and other
officials in every county, with whom the
Executive Committees here, in New York
and in Washington are in constant COM
munication. With them the work Of
organization is easy, and it will
be thorough. Every man of their party
will be brought to the polls and will vote
the printed ticket prepared for them by
Maynard s. Co. 1t is idle to denounce
conventions until some better plan of Or
ganiaation can be suggested. Our candi-
dates for tie Presidency and Vice Presiden-
cy are the nominees Of conventions. Our
candidate for Governor is the nominee of a
convention. So are our electoral candidates,
and so will be our candidates for Congress.
So will be the candidates for the Legislature
in nearly, if not entirely all the counties
of the State. The enemies Of Democracy
will denounce conventions and insist that
every man shall run who wishes TO solicit
the sufrages of his fellow citizens. Turn
a deaf ear to such. The dis0rganization
and defeat of the Democracy are what such
teachers desire. Let the work Of organiza-
ton 60 on. Let every committee go 10
work. and where no committees have been
appointed, let them be appointed al once in
every county and in every civil district.

but suspicion rests on a man who was near
the house that morning inquiring for work.
Detectives are on his track. The particu-

the murderer went in the house about 6
O'Clock in the morning and ordered break
fast. While Mrs. Matthewson was prepar-
ing it he undertook to ravish her and she
resisted. Her clothing and person showed
unmistakable signs that there was laterri-
BILE struggle for life. Her hand was horri'

very respectable and among thel first in the

HoE. LEWIS TIILMAN, formerly enc Of
the leading men of the Radical party in this
State, member of the last Congress, pub
fishes card in the Shelbyville Commercial
in which he declares himself ior Greeley and
Brown, and adds;
Ia don't propose 10 vote for Democrats
as readily as Republicans, but shall, as here
tofore, vote for Republicans or Wings, up
on isues the war neither made nor set
tied, such as the tariff, currency, internal
improvements and education, and will take
occasion here 70 say that l shall take pleas
IRE in voting for Horace Maynard for Gov
srnor as a long tried, devoted and able
friend of those old Wing measures"
Greeley and Brown for President and
Vice President and Maynard for Governor
form rather 8 strange admixture. If Mr.
Tillman can stand it, the country, it is to be
hoped, will still prosper.
