GRANT AND COLFAX THE TICKET


PHILADELPHIA, June Q, 1872.
The gathering of delegates and lookers-on is now
full and interesting The hotels on the main
thoroughfares have no more beds or rooms and
the long of cots In the Hobbies look like hosp
tai wards. Average Philadelphia, however goes
about its business and Is little affected by anything
The weather Is the pleasantest Introduction to
summer that one can experience In any climate
and to-day all the church going people are out in
their best attire
Nominations will not be made till Thursday,
June Q, and on that day the Convention win proba.
bly, adjourn.
POINTS OF NEWS.
Among the arrivals to-day were Horace White of
tne chicago Tribune, accompanied by part OF mis-
STAFF He edits the leading republican Greeley
paper OF the West and reports that Greeley is
gaining constantly in the Northwest. He saws
Governor Koerner the German longest In public life
In this country, is staunchy for Greeley and that
k0eraer puts the issue as between military despo-
tsm and free election. Kocrner says 'if Grant
prevails now what may he not be able to do with
she same instrumentaltes four years hence9n and
he has appealed to Carl Schurz to rouse from his
lethargy and take the field.
A BACK DOWN.
Adviccs received here by Pennsylvania free
traders are to the effect that David A. Wells has
already repented OF his speech at Steinway Hall
last week. and will shortly declare his considerate
preference for Greeley over Grant.
The Nevada delegate. who has arrived here at the
Convention, says he will vote for Greeley.
LOGAN AND SUMNER.
The Presidents friends take Joy at John Logans
speech OF Saturday, and think he will be great
power on the stump in Ohio. General MARYLAND a
1nahi pppt
OF Grant, says that Sumner will come out for
Greeley after the nomination OF Grant, and
that his speech meant merely to
be an apology In advance for the position he will
take in the campaign MARYLAND thinks that Den
nison's name may not be presented at all by the
Ohio delegation, and that Jim Wilson'S friends will
also decline put him in nomination. and that Col
fax win be nominated on the first ballot.
CoLFAX AHEAD.
washington arrivals report that Grant Is now
anxious to have Colfax retained on the ticket and
Summers speech has evidently affected Colfax's
fortunes favorably by the presumption that this
is no time to be respecters of persons for
merely unmportant honor. Oolfax is confident
and quiet. About one-haf the delegates
who have yet arrived are ofce-holders. General
Comfy OF Columbus, Ohio, while not satisfied that
Dennison has any great showing, thinks the Ohans
will cast their fortyfour votes for him straight and
that he may get some help from New York and
Pennsylvania. He says the considerations in favor
ofDennson are his consistency and the promptness
with which he resigned the Postmaster Generally
rather than follow Johnson's policy, and his record
i the first war Governor of Ohio. Denpison Is a
IN an of iron gray hair, impressive and genial ad-
DIR, ss and close party allegiance. Ohio BESIDES is
ST ate that requires some attention at the hands
OF tn ADMINISTRATION. Dennison lives at Columbus.
Gov ernor Noyes, Of Ohio, is here, with head
quartz RS at the Continental. He is country
looking black-beageed, thick-set man. hardl over
the mid, lie age.
