MONTGOMERY BLAIR.-In a letter adj
dressed to prominent Democrat at
Baltimore, Montgomery Blair says:
"We will have to take Greeley or Grant,
and we will take Greeley, reluctantly OF
course. but not the less certainly. And
he will be the more certain of election
because the Democrats do not wish to
embrace at first. As for their running
candidate of their own, that would oe
both disastrous and disgracefnl. For
my own part go for the movement in
itiated at Cincinnati 10 arrest the further
progress of radicalism. It is the only
practical way of arrestlng. AS for run
ming in straight Democratic ticket b. .
tween Greeley and Graut, that is "a.
dodge that will not be allowed to sue
ceed. That can be done only in the
small field. of local politics, where the
contest between the real aspirants is
personal and has become embitteie .
The moment that the Democracy shall
set up itself, the North will close its
ranks again and the only effect would
be to sacrifse the leaders in the liberal
patty who had attempted to help us.
This would disgrace us, and SO help to
defeat US, not only now but hereafter -

Greeley in Washington.

The Washington correspondent of the
San Francisco Examiner, under date OF
May 20, writes:
There having been a number of ru-
mors as to the views of Democratic men,
bers of Congress, regarding the policy
of the Baltimore Convention endorsing
the candidate Of the Cincinnati Conven-
ton it may not be uninteresting for your
readers to know that out of one hundred
end five Democratic nembers there are
fifty-fve who eith,r strongly advocate or
favor the nomination of Horace Gree
ley, thirty-three who are negative, nom
committal or doubtful, ,and Eighteen who
bitterly oppose him. All, without ex-
ception, will both vote and work for
him in the event of his endorsement at
Baltimore. The opposition to him comes
from Delaware. Indiana. Kentucky, Ma
ryland, New Jersey, Ohio, Wisconsin
and OREGON.
Jerry Black, in speaking of the situa-
ton, said: 1.-The country is in great
danger. Nov the revenues of the Gov
ernment are used to enrich incorporated
monopolists legislatures are owned by
railwiy companies senatorial chairs are
openly sold to the highest bidders; our
courts are packed and corrupted, etc.,
etc. How much longer this will be
borne God only knows: but unless hu-
man nature is greatly changed, sooner
or later, there will be resistance. The
platform put forth at Cincinnati is .
broad, fair democratic platform. Thrs

is nothing passive in that. Now if the
Convention that meets at Baltimore,
finds in its wisdom that Greeley fits the
platform. we will make the best fight fol
him We can" This is the General feel
ing here even among those who are de.
-idedly opposed to Mr.. Greeley s nomin-
ition.
I have it from good authority that ex.
Governor Seymour, Of New York. has
written letter to member Of Congress
from that State. urging him to use hi
efforts for Mr.. Greeley as the best thing
to do under the circumstances.
A letter was received here on Satur-
day. from Gen. Merritt, proprietor o.
the State Register At Springfield, ILL.,. il
which he states that forty-ive out ofth.
seventy Democratic newspapers in tha'
State had already hoisted the names OF
Greeley and Brown at the top Of theii
editorial columns, and he claimed thai
the vote of the State would be thrown
solid for them at Ba .imore.
The Liberals claim that the reelection
Of Oi1is s. Ferry to the United States
Senate bv combination of Democrat
and Liberal Republicans in Connecticut
and the endorsm mt Of the Cincinnati
platform, by the New York Democratic
Convention, are most significant and
foreshadow the action of the Baltimore
Convention.
The friends of Greeley and Brown
bave rented large portion of the st.
Marc hotel for headquarters and are
at work already. John D. Defrees is in
charge until the Congressional organiza-
ton is perfected.
