LONDON, July 12.-London Journals comment
as follows on the nomination Of Greeley to the
presidency by the Baltimore convention:
The Advertiser conlesses that its sympathies
are entirely with Greeley as newspaper man.
The Post declares that such fragrant redUctiO
dd dbsiTditm will largely tend TO bring about
an abandonment of the system whereby the
people Of America have so long been deprived
of all real choice for their presidents.
The Telegraph styles Greeley political
weathercock, and says: "As democrat, SUP.
ported by the south, he is endeavoring to unseat
the general who saved the Union"
The Standard thinks Greeley would not be
an eligible candidate were II not Tor his elcc.

ton to support Grant as Il safe and true man for
president He says, "Geu. Grants career dur
ing the war was marked by humanity and
kindness. and defy Greeley democrats to point
to single act of Grants administration that
would warrant even the Supposition of vindic-
tyencSs or malignity on his part towards the
south" He says Grant has never attempted TO
assume power or usurp authority, and before
his election, on the only occasion when he had
10 speak of the south he made a report in IFS
favor. He thinks General Grant is entitled to
reelection and to the full vote of the democrats.

Gus TO the boat race between Ellis Ward and
O'Leary the interest in boating matters in this
city has been at rather a low ebb, but having
received slight stimulus at that time, there is
some prospect that before the season IS over,
other contests not as important, but perhaps
more close and exciting, will be arranged. There
are several local Oarsmen who keep private
Doals Mt the lake and who have improved their
odd hours for some time past in exercise at the

oil course friendly rivalry in regard to speed

occurring during practice, do not appear to have
satisfactorily settled the question: it is proposed
to determine 1t by a regular race. Seventy-Aye
dollars has been raised by subscription to be
given IN prizes, fifty dollars to the winner and
twenty-five dollars to the second best. IL has
also been proposed TO fix an entrance fee of two
dollars, winch amount shall lie piven
to the third boat. The time for the race has not
been definitely fixed, but it will probably occur
on Thursday or Friday of next week. IL is UNI
