THE STRAIGHT DEMOCRATS.

Important Meeting OF Delegates In
New York ClIya- -UnanimOus Deciss
lon TO support the Candidates oi
the Louisville ConVentlons..MF.
Charles O'COnnor In Full Accord
with the Movement. q JtS0-'
NEW York, August 17.-A large and
important meeting Of Democrats opposed
to the Cincinnati platform and its. candi.
dates was held yesterday afternoon In one
I the parlors Of the st. James Hotel, in this
city. The purpose Of the meeting Of these
gentlemen, who represented nearly every
section Of the country, was 10 hayea full
and unreseryed interchange Of views and
opinions on ihe political questions OF the
day. The discussion was an animated
and interesting one, for only one OF the
delegates avowed his prediction for
Greeley, yet they seemed quite agreed
that II was the duty Of all Democrats
whe cared anything for principle or the
record Of the Democratic party to use
their influence toward sending strong
and able delegation from each State and
Territory OF the Union TO the Louisville
Convention, which is to be held on the
Sd Of September. The meeting decided
by an unanimous vote to push the work
forward in every possible way, in order
that the Convention may be properly at
tended by representative men who are
known to be earnest in their devotion to
the party with which their political for.
tunes have hitherto been identified.
1t was stated that such q delegation Is
assured from this city and State, and the
utmost confidence was expressed and as.
surances given that all of the other States
would move promptly and vigorously in
the same direction and for the same ends.
One OF the most important announce.
nents made during the consultation
among the delegates was the authorita.
tive statement that Mr.. Charles o. Conor,
the eminent lawyer, was in full and en-.
tire accord with the Louisville movement,
and had announced his intention Of giving
1t his earnest and unqualified support.
The meeting proved to be a most har.
monious one, and judging from tho tone
of those who took part in the discussions,
1t cannot fail TO have a great influence
upon the canvass. The adoption of
Greeley by the Baltimore Convention
was stigmatized as G base betrayal Of
party trust, which ought to be sternly
met and vigorously put down.

Greeley is elected, and not otherwise.
The circular will appear in the Carolina

says the result Of the election will not

the Legislature, which does not convene
until the third Monday in November.
There are some fifteen counties yet to be

From the character Of these communica-
tons it is evident that Tom Paine and Alb
ner Kneeland have greatly improved their
religious notions since they entered on
their spirit-life that Lorenzo Dow has
polished up his English q trife /; and
that Theodore Parker and Starr King still
continue to write with sense and vigor.
The volume can hardly fail to attract attcn-
ton in the hands of the thoughtful reader,
as the whole matter of it is of a high order
intellectually, morally, and spiritually. 1t
is no Understanding, but dips Familiarity
and deeply into philosophy, as understood
not only by the disrobed intclligencies of
the universe, but by those who made it
profound study before they "shuiiled of
this mortal COLL" If Mrs. Conant wrote
all this of her own volition, or rather if she
pronounced it all, in the course of her
several seances, by the aid of her memory,
she is a most remarkable woman, and the
book she has produced deserves wide sale
for its extraordinary merit as literary and
intellectual production. The volume can
be ordered from the publishers, or through
our local bookstores.

THE third annual meeting of the Bar
Iron Manufacturers Association, which
met in Philadelphia last year. was held in
in Pittsburg last week. A variety of mat
tiers relating to the trade were discussed
and adopted among others plan for the
formation of National Union of American
Industries, in which each branch should be
represented by one or more delegates. with
a proper executive, the design being to af-
ford the advantages of combination of the
industrial power of the country. The me-
mortal asking the association to accept this
plan was signed by leading manufacturers
and railroad men of the United States, who
asked the cooperation of the Convention in
this work, as eminently necessary, in view
Of the Free-trade and Revenue Reform
Leagues.
