The World says: "We now bow to the
decision of the Democratic National Con-
vention, and loyalty accept Greeley as
the Democratic candidate for President. "
Of an organized bolt, it adds, there will
be none, but if hundreds of thousands oi
dissatisfied Democrats stay away from the
polls, the reelection of Grant would be
a foregone certainty. The World says
the relations of Augustus Schell with
August Belmont are such that the for

Democratic Committee affords the party
the strongest possible assurance that its
interests will be administered hereafter

The convention decided to endorse the

tance of fthe ticket land pledges the party to
its support. 1t will serve more than any
thing else, while retaining the authority
of the party in the North and West, to
bring the South up to the ca->e in al
most solid phalanx. To argue that the
nomination of Greeley by Democratic
convention will ALLEVIATE fastidious Repub.
licans who brought him out a candidate
do not want him elected. Whatever
course is best calculatd to unite the Con
servative vote OF the country at the elec'
ton is the course all of Greeley's friends
will most heartily approve, and that the
convention adopted just the course OF al
others the most jndlcious we cannot en
tertain a doubt. -
