The Cincinnati Convention.
u,st ts Thought Of 1t by the Press.

New YORK, May 4.-The Times rIdl-
orIa. the action Of the Cincinnati Con-
,sn,;on in nominating Mr.. Greeley. 1t
links the honest members Of the
convention were overpowered by dis.
honest politicians. 1t further says
there would have been something sensI-
h, in nominating such men as Adams
and Trambull, but to nominate man
who is or has been opposed to most Of
IN, points advanced by the distinguished
members OF the Convention, is a thing
vb,ch places the Convention in a thor
oDyh contemplate position by the
world 1t has not even one chance OF
success.
The World opens this morning by
saving:
We will not attempt to conceal our
ji.gu,t at the failure OF the Cincinnati
C,2vention to nominate Adams. In
,.rimatng the situation it never occurrd
.,it to test Adams and Greeley, but it
worked against Trumbull, Davis and
Brown. 1t is therefore much surprised
stthe result as it had considered Greeley
no, able to get more than a compli
nentary vote Itsupposed the Conven'
non would nominate prominent man
with a view to concentrate the Demo
cratic support, and in the face OF which
i has nominated the most conspicuous
opposer Of the Democrats that the party
uss in the whole country.
The World says if Adams had been
nominated it would have advised his
endorsement by the Democratic people,
but it cannot do so with Greeley. 1t
hs. no advice to offer to the Democratic |
National COMMITTEE, which meets here
next week to issue call for the regu.
lar National Convention. 1t says
We frankly say that Greeley is not
our choice. Our impression is that
the Democratic National Convention
will ignore the candidates entirely, and
nominate a new ticket. We do not see
what is to be the fate of Greeley.
The action OF the Cincinnati Liberal
Convention in the nomination of
Greeley Tor the Presidency is the sub
Iect Of general comment by the press
this morning.
The HsraH says the nomination will |
excite surprise and interest. After
tavorsbly reviewing Greeley's eminent
position both in journalism and poll
lcs, We ask the question, has the Con-
yention really nominated the next
President? Will the enthusiasm which |
sro.e Yesterday on the banks OF the
Ohio die away or sweep the country
Ike tornado? Will the strange and
hostile elements which gathered at
Cincinnati really form the winning
party? They are considered doubtful
questions, as also whether the many

yrntion will submit to the nomination

WASHINGTON, May 4.--The Nation.
a Republican, an administration or
gan, this morning thinks that the
Republicans have nothing to fear from
the Cincinnati nominations. The Lib.
erals, in nominating Greeley and
Brown, have thrown away their only |
chance otsucCeas.
The Patriot (Democratic), is surprised |
a,the result, but thinks that the ticket |
possesses great strength, and that it will
complete the work OF the destruction OF
NE Republican organization.
CINCINNATI, May 4.-The Commercial

Aai It our duty to urge upon our fellow
r,iz.ns the election Of Horace Greeley |
% the Presidency, depends largely upon
lat which will be done by the regular
o'ganization Of the old existing politi-
i. parties. Mr.. Greeley, few weeks |
ago frankly stated that he would sup |
'ou the nomination Of the Cincinnati |
1ayention, provided the Democratic
party did not attempt to take advan-
age Of the Republican divieiou; and
% case there was regular Democrat
minated, he would support strong ly |
lie Republican candidate. We have
made similar resolutions as to our dis.
a!feeng with Mr.. Greeley. We
,ways have disagreed with regard to
Ar. Irreeley's tariff notions.
