| tackled and burned a wagon train. Nine men
and one woman escaped, who brought the news
to Fort Clark.
Lieutenant Vincent, who followed and fought
the Indians, was killed.
Intense interest prevailed here during to-
day with reference to the events at Cincinnati,
not only in the Executive and Legislative cir
cles but throughout the city. Inquiries were
| constantly made as to the latest intelligence
from tho convention. The progress of the bal
loting seemed to add if possible to the excite
ment. Everywhere the news is spreading with
remarkable rapidly. Those in the Executive
Department heard it about the same time as it
became known in Congress. The kilograms,
announcing Horace Greeley as candidate for
the Presidency were received with surprise as
previous private kilograms foreshadowed a
different result, The Republicans not in SYM
pathy with the convention, are expressing
themselves as not alarmed at the selection,
while the Democrats said that their National
Convention, which is to convene on the 4th of
July, will define the policy of the Democratic
party.
The news of the nomination interrupted for
some time the proceedings of the House, the
members gathering in front of the Speaker )
desk to hear the latest intelligence. There
were similar exhibitions in the Senate while
Mr.. Casserly was speaking. That gentleman, re-
ferring to the inclination to business, moved
that an adjournment take place until the Gin
cinnati Convention was over
The excitement subsidized with the announce
ment of Gratz Brown as the candidate for the
Vice Presidency.
Tonight gentlemen of all parties are discuss
ing the effects of the proceedings Of the Con-
Tention.

CINCINNATI. May 8.

CINCINNATI, May g.
The Union and Reform Convention is fully
organized. They want to secure State lights.
They want man for President who can be a
soldier in war and citizen in peace. The move
ment is to have Trumbull for President and a
Southern man for Vice President

said the League opposes Adams and favOrs
Greeley.

noon eager for news from the Cincinnati Con.
vention. The announcement of the nomination
of Greeley and Brown gives very general salts
faction to Conservatives and Liberal Republi

could have been selected.
The State Journal thinks Greeley the mos
vulnerable man that the Liberals could have
nominated.

The nomination of Greeley and Brown is very

Democrats here. 1t is universally conceded
that Greeley is less Objectionable to the South

WHAT THE PRESS SAYS OF HORACE
GREELEY.
How the Philosopher Will Take.

In discussing the chances for the Presi-
dency, Greeley's name was occasionally
mentioned. He was not considered strong
until Fenton made the bargain and sale
with Gratz Brown. But several journals
referred to him as follows:
The New York Evening Post, strongly
in favor of the Liberal movement from
the beginning, will oppose Greeley.
On Wednesday last in looking over the
candidates it said:
We leave out of the account Judge Da-
Wis and Mr.. Greeley; there is no doubt
that Judge Davis will receive large vote,
but his popularity has been advanced
by questionable means; it signifies moth
ing, and his nomination would be unfor-
tunately weak, and as for Mr.. Greeley, his
nomination Mould be the death blo1O to the
reform movement, because he is the enbOd-
intent of Capitalization and monopoly.
The Chicago Tribune, one of the strong
est papers for the Cincinnati Convention,
will oppose Greeley. The Cincinnati Times
of Wednesday says:
But Mr.. Horace White is very explicit
in his statement that under no circum-
stances will the Chicago Tribune support
Horace Greeley.
The Cincinnati German press oppose
Greeley. t. $4,000.
The VoIkSbzat, edited by Mr.. Hassaurek,
said OH Wednesday: ~
The political managers are laboring to
get up ticket that will suit nobody. 1t
is hoped that they will have their trouble
for their pains. A combination such as
Davis and Curtin, or Curtin and Palmer,
would simply be the end of the movement.
Neither IS HorUce Greeley q candidate a0t0
can deUeLop any considerable strength
among Germans. ..-...Ir WA
The Volkstremad does not like Greeley.
1t says:
NO doubt strenuous efforts will be made
to bring out Greeley as candidate, but il
is neither probable that he will be nomi.
mated for the Presidency nor that he will
accept the Vice Presidency. Greeley knows
himself and he, ds tOeU as the people, knows
that he possesses no administrative or par
tiamentary talent, and that he has SeTiola:
faults, though otherwise an honest and
well-meaning man.

The French Arms Scandal.

A special from Washington of the 30th
ult. to the Boston Transcript says:
Berlin advices state that the leading Con-
sentative journal of that city speaks of
Senators Sumner and Schurz concerning
the Frencharms business as follows:
Both may have been influenced by re-
gard for public morals, but it cannot be al
together denied that they, the most promi-
nent opponents of the present Admins
tration, have stirred up this matter in or
der to create embarrassment and organize a
new political constellation. But even if
this inference did them wrong, their move
ment give rises to another unpleasant inn
preston. 1t seems they went to work
with negligence which is not to be expect
ed from politicians long experienced.
Their assertions have, one after another,
been refuted, and they are now in a posi-
ton by no means agreeable The whole
job has the appearance of a foreign intrigue
in which senators of the United States
allowed themselves to be trapped. Even
those who started the thing may now wish
they never had done so. At all events it
must be admitted that the examination of
the bill was merely manmuvre such as
politicians frequently resort to in excited
times.
