LOUISVILLE, July 10.-The nomination
OF Greeley and Brown, was received here
by the Democrats with general satisiac.
ton. The Courier, Journal tomorrow, In
an editorial, says: "The Convention rose
above mere party, and throwing the an.
cient prejudice to the winds, did what
patriotism required. II Is hoped all who
call themselves Democrats, will now enter
heartily in support Of Greeley and Brown,
and all who are worthy Of the name, win
do II. AS Democrats, no other course Il
left them. Before tho nomination, they
had a right to oppose Nr. Greeley. After
It, as party men, they have none. We
do not claim Greeley and Brown to be
Democrats, with unexampled self abne.
CATION, the Democrats have given both
platform and candidates to their allies.h
CLEVELAND, o., July 10.-The news
from Baltimore made no special stir, as It
was expected. The Liberals and Demo.
Gratis are happy, and while under the in.
lluence Of their delight, arranged for

front Of the State House. Speeches were
expected from Gen. Brinkerhott. Fl. j.
Jewett and. other local speakers. at q
O'Clock, when q few citizens had gathered,
gentle rain began TO fall, and so the
meeting was postponed until Saturday
evening.
The Republicans express themselves as
glad that the Baltimore Convention placed
Greeley regularly in nomination, and that
II he is to run they want him TO go before
the people as q Democrat and not Lib.
eral nominee alone. Some Of the most
prominent Republicans declare that they
do not doubt the election OF Grant, not.
withstanding all the elements Of opposi.
tion consolidated against him.
CHICAGO, July 1.-THE news of the
nomination Of Greeley and Brown by the
Democratic National Convention created
very little excitement here, the proceed
ings Of the Convention yesterday having
SO plainly indicated it, that nothing but
failure to nominate the Cincinnati
ticket would have elected surprise.
The Journal this evening, in an edi.
torial on the nominations, takes the
ground that It places Greeley among the
Democrats; that the ticket is purely
Democratic ticket, and that no Re.
publican can be expected to or will
vote it. 1t regards 1t as sad spectacle
to see Greeley, lie long opponent Of the
Democratic party, Its men, and It's prin.
ciples, now standing before the country as
It's chosen and wiiliHg champion, in oppo.
sition 10 the Republican party, ol which
he has been u leader, and compares as
aspostacy 10 that Of Jno. Tyler and An.
drew johnson.
The Tribune Tomorrow, in leader on
the result OF the Convention, says: "There
is no prouder event in the history
OF any nation, than this instance Of
whole people after q long civil
war, meeting together and uniting
upon common agreement; to bury al
the past controversies; to ignore the ha.
treds OF generalities; to proclaim the
common equality Of citizens, and to con.
duct the government upon q policy Of
fraternal affection. In the history Of the
parties there has never been nobler in.
stance of the superiority OF the love Of
the country than this abandonment OF
past preiudices and the union of the peo.
pie against the common enemy Of the
peace, union, honesty and national honor.
The writer says the nomination gives
the final blow to opposition and assures
triumph to the Liberal cause.

Mr. Greeley may have been right when he
said the Cincinnati Convention could
name the next President. ItD
The Courier, German Republican,
which favored the Liberal movement,
will say they regard Mr. Greeley now as
the Democratic candidate, whom they
cannot support; and as between Greeley
and Grant, they will support Grant,
though Il may be done with reluctance.
The P0lkstfeund, German DEM will,
tomorrow, come out in support Of Gree.
ley, saying: II he accepts the nomina.
ton he will become member Of the
Democratic party. Moreover II he &C.
ceps on conditions he can not be elected.
Mr.. Greeley will wear the democratic
cockade In his white hat strange asst
may look.

but will probably incline 10 neutrality.
