Wales was back in society to teach
it how to dress decently, In con-
sequence Of her example, bare
bosoms and shoulders, during tile
past few seasons, grew less and less
bare. This season she has been abb
sent, and from that or some othor
cause, shoulders and bosoms have
again come into somewhat unseem>
y prominence.

The Mississippi Delegation and The
Platform.


clear on the lace Of the proceeding.
Of the Baltimore convention why the
vote Of our delegation was cast
Hgains, the majority upon tho ques.
ton of the platform, We will publisi
a btief statement Of the facts. ire
facing il with the rcmark, the truth
VI which will bcapparent, that there
was no disagreement whatever /
reference TO the living and practical
issues involved in election. In the
committee on resolutions which was
composed OF a delegate from each
State, who was designated for the
place by the delegation thereof, Mr..
Cassedy, Of New York, proposed
literally to adopt the platform OF the
Cincinnati convention, the same as
il il had been an original PROPOSE
ton, with the following introdus.
ton: "We, the Democratic electors
of the United States in convention
assembled, do present the following
principles already adopted at Gin.
cinnati as essential to just governs
ment." Here follows the platform
Of the Cincinnati convention.
In lieu of this proposition, the
members of the committee from
Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, Tex.
as, Kansas, Oregon, Delaware, Mis-,
sissippi, and, we believe, Maine, ad-
vocated a platform arraigning the
Grant administration for its misdeeds
and purely declaratory Of the vital
and essential issues OF the canvass,
divested ofall irrevelant matter what
ever. Tho committeeman from
Mississippi (E. Barksdale) advocated
this plan and insisted that the ninth
resolution containing an expression
of gratitude to the northern soldiers
for the part borno by them In the
civil war was not q declaration Of
political faith, but purely matter
Of sentiment and feeling, and was
wholly out Of place in the platform
Of an organization to which the
men OF the North and Of the South
were parties equally. He insisted
that in the true spirit Of the cove
nant between these parties, to lot
the dead bury its dead, to stand on
the present, aud to look to the fu>
.ure and take care Of it. A resolu.
ton having reference wholly to the
past aud which implied u reflection
on the soldiers on the southern side
Of the civil conflict should not bo
adopted,
The resolution objected to ,s as
follows
"Ninth-We remember with graf.
itude the heroism and sacrifice Of tho
soldiers and sailors of the republic,
and no act of ours shall ever detract
from their justly earned fame or the
full reward of their patriotism"
The motion Of the member from
New York, we regret to say, pre-
vailed by tho almost united vote Of
tho North and members from Ken
lucky, Virginia, and probably by
one or two other Southern States,

A GRIST FROM PGRKOPOLIS.
The War of the FactiOns-AIl About Re-
form.

AS the Cincinnati Convention meets to-
morrow, and the interest in its delibera-
tons increases, we give below some infor-
nation gathered from different sources. A
special from Cincinnati to the New York
Tribune dated Friday, Goth, says:
Some of the States evidently come with
great numbers, under the idea that the
greatest crowd carries the day. The men
who have the management of the prelim-
inarles are not altogether such as the cause
demands, and, without unceasing watch
fulness, those who assemble next week
may find other than reform the work be-
fore them. So far, the country at large
has taken very little thought as to candi-
dates, leaving that business to be decided
after discussion by the Convention. There
is widespread conviction that some of
the wire-pullers of these State delegations
have formed collision for the swamping
of the preferences of the less numerOusly
represented States, and the fOisting by ac-
clamation of candidates repugnant to the
popular voice.
The "Politician Element which at
first held alOOf, now that the movement
overshadows the country with its proper
tiOns, come boldly to the front, and insO-
lently demand the management. Pelf and
office are as Enthusiastically the object of
these barnacles under the banner of re-
form as under that of the officb Holder
Pennsylvanians are frank in their
repugnance to- Charles Francis Adams,
whose letter, is, regarded as frivolous and
undigniied. He is accused Of counting
Administration bounty by his careless, or,
afytlsey term it, sighting allusion to the
lLfberal Convention. 1t is claimed that
Adams has lost the chance he held last
week, through the earnest sympathy and
support extended him by the World and
August Belmont, who has been quite out
spoken i'll his preference.
The Free Traders hope, at least those
who represent them, to have the prelim-
mary management Of the Convention and
their avOwed favorites are Adams and
Brown.
The complication arising from the in
cipient attempt at fixing things" Gull

REFORMERs.

Cincinnati Performers" was dishOnora-
oily dismissed from the United States SER
vice during the late war, for "licentious-
ness and conduct unbecoming an Off

Western army until dismissed, and it may
be possible that General Grant approved
the sentence of the court martial which
thus disposed of him. This may have
served to give zest and relish to his ideas
of reform" which he would not have had
otherwise.
