mick, Wells, King and Cornings, of Mis-
souri,, are all for Greeley. The position Of
Kendall, OF Nevada, is not known. The
three newspaper members, Bell, HibbaTd
and Parker, are all for Greeley, and were
from the start. Parker and Bird,
Of New jersey, are strong against
Greeley, and suppose, under railroad in
fuence; all the Democratic members from
New York, Townsend, Kinsella,' Slocum,
Roosevelt, Roberts, Cox, Smith, Ely,
Brooks, Wood, Potter, Tuthill, Perry, War
rem, Rogers, Carroll and Williams are for
Greeley. 1t is the same thing in North
Carolina, Waddell, Leach, Shober, Roger
and Harper are all for Greeley. There are
five Democrats only from Ohio. Mckinney
is warmly for Greeley. Gen. Morgan ad-
mits that no other man has a chance-to car
ry Ohio, while Campbell, Van Trump and
Lamisen are opposed to the nominations.
Slater, Of Oregon, is against the Cincinnati
nominations. In Pennsylvania all the De
members, save one, are for Gree
ley. These are Sam Randall, Getz, Storm,
Haldeman, Meyers, Speer, Sherwood, Grif-
fifth, Foster and McClelland. DIR. Acker
is against Greeley. The six Tennessee
members, Garrett, Bright, Golladay, Whit
thorne, Caldwell and Vaughn are all
for Greeley; so are Che three Dem
oerats from Texas, Herndon, Con-
nor and Hancock. Virginia is so
earnest, enthusiastic and unanimous for
Greeley, that her five Conservative mem
bers, Duke, Critcher, Harris, BraXton and
Terry, may all be set down the same way
Hereford, of West Virginia, 1 learn, is now
disposed to acquiesce in Greeley's nomina-
ton. Davis position is not known. FL
bridge, of Wisconsin, is said to belong TO
the Grant ring, and is against Greeley,
while his colleague, Mitchell, is for him.
As to the Senate, that body is less amena-
bic than the House to popular influences,
and the summing up is less satisfactory. L
classify them as follows: Blair of MisSou-
ri, for Greeley; Bayard, Of Delaware, is op-
posed to him, but ready to acquiesce
in the decision of the convention. Messrs.
Thurman of Ohio, Casserly of Califor-
MIA, Stevenson of Kentucky, Hamilton OF
Maryland, also opposed, but are ready to
abide by the action of the Convention.
Messrs. Johnston of Virginia, Ransom OF
North Carolina, Norwood of Georgia, Coop
er of Tennessee, and Garrett Davis Of Ken
lucky, are all for Greeley. Mr.. Kelly OF
Oregon is also inclined that way. Mr.Nick
ers of Maryland not yet ascertained. Mr..
Stockton of New Jersey, and Salisbury, OF
Delaware, very strongly opposed. All the
changes that have occurred in the two bod
les, and they have occurred rapidly, are in
favor of Greeley. The opposition to him
in Congress is now kept upby less than
twenty out of hundred and twenty MEM
bers, and is being fattened out every day.
When Dan VOORHEES, comes back from Indi-
ana he will find half his parasites have gone
over to Greeley.
The Democrats and Mr.. Greeley.

WASHINGTON, May 26.-In spite of re-
ports which claim nearly all the Democratic
members for Greeley, many of them are al
heart bitterly opposed to the idea of accept
ing Greeley. Still, most of them agree thai
they can do nothing to stay the movement
toward Greeley. They keep still, in obedi

When the convention meets many of the
leaders who are quiet now will find means
