WASHINGTON. juno eth. 1872.
There IS the most stupcndouS effort on
foot tn keep alive the enthusiasm which the
,,rlir"-hcidcrS manifest on account of Grants
rtnumimtion a; ard no one is disposed to
deny the truth of the statement that IN this

country. nor could Philadelphia during the
l,>t hours OF the adjourned convention hold
any better claim than Washington. Here
There is sincere rejoicing, because the city

Delegates to the convention have been
