Greeley Can Only Win with Dem
cratic SuDDORt.

From the Nashville (Tenn.) Union.l
Its election depends solely upon the
action of the Democracy Whatever
they shall conclude is best to be done
for the highest interests Of the country
will be done cheerfully. They vii!
preserve their organization intact and
act as body. With the lights before
US we do not doubt that when In
National Convention assembled they
will take such action as will lead to
the defeat of Grant and the election Of
the ticket presented at Cincinnati.

No Chance for Democratic Ticket
In the South.

We cannot suppose that any respecta-
ble number OF Northern Democrats
really contemplate such tomtoolery as
the nomination of Democratic ticket.
Such a ticket would receive no support
at the South, and every vote cast tor 1t
would inure to the benefit Of Grant and
the re>establishment of extreme Radi-
calism.

If the Democrats Make No NOmi ma
tiOns Greeley Must be Supported.

From the Lynchburg, VA Republican,
While it may be advisable to await
he action of the Democratic party,
through their chosen representatives,
We have no hesitancy in expressing the
opinion that, should there be no Demo
crate nominations, wisdom and policy
alike dictate a cordial and enthusiastic
support Of the Cincinnati ticket by the
people OF the South.

Kentucky viii Await the Decision n
Ofthe Convention.

From the Louisville Courier-Journal.l
We are inclined to think that the
Democracy will adopt it, but the situa-
ton is not of that positive kind-the
road before us is not Of that assured
and open description-to render our
action perfectly clear in advance. We
commit the question therefore, to those
whose business il is to determine the ac-
tion OF the Democracy as an organiza-
ton. They must decide it. The Ma
tional Democratic Committee meets in
New York next Wednesday, and it will
and ought to call a National Demo-
cratic Convention. That body will
finally settle the point, and in Ken.
lucky we have nothing to do but wait
upon its action, holding our local organ
izAtjon, in the meantime, well in hand.

Greeley's Hostility TO the Dem.
Ocracy.

From the Louisville Ledger.
With what face can Horace Greeley
ask the support of the Democrats? 4? Not
three weeks since he declared he would
support that Republican ticket which
exhibited the best chance OF success,
and that he would support Grant
whom he declares is dishonest and cor
rupt-in preference to the very best
Democrat in the world.

q recess OF five minutes f. p. GOulding Esq. cOun-
sci for the prisoner, opened his argument. He
compared the present case 10 a similar one in the
higher walks of life, claiming that in the present
case, there some evidence to show that the act
performed in self defence. The government
seeks TO convict the accused of murder IN the first
degree but ii is for YOU to decide i'll what degree
the crime shall be cassed. The evidence shows
that the man was horribly beaten and mutilated,
aud that both parties were under the Influence of
liquor at the time There is no evidence to show
that there any previous quarrel between the
deceased and the prisoner and the indications We're
that at the scene of the affair there was severe
struggle. When stack and Dunphg went up the
road they We're both intoxicated, both had liquor
with them, and the natural consequence was 4
quarrel Mr. GOulding then reviewed the evidence
in detail alluding to the fact of the prisoners hav-
ing told one story before the coroner, and another
before the court resulting from his being fright
ened at the time of his arrest. In closing he al
luded to the prisoner as being three thousand miles
away from his home and friends, with 10 one to
support him in his hour of trouble.
Attorney General Tram, in opening his argument
for the government, spoke Of the dsagreeabe duty
which the jury had to perform, and after explain
ing ut length the different degrees of CRIME which
constituted murder in the first and second degrees,
reviewed the evidence in relation to the actions OF
the men, from the time they left their boarding
| house TO the time of the deed, and their actions
after it had been discovered There is no evidence
| to show that there a mutual fight between the
| deceased and Dnnphy; the prisoner did not show
any evidence of having been engaged in light, and
| If there was any fight it must have been after
| Duuphy had Stack at a disadvantage. The intoX1-
| called cOndltlon OF the man IS no excuse lOf the
deed, and should not be taken into consideration.
In closing, he called upon the jury to protect the
| rights of the community, to satisfy their own con-
| scielces, and render verdict which they should
| never have cause to look back upon as unjust.
| Chief Justice Chapman occupied nearly half an
hour III his charge TO the jury, and at five O'Clock
| the case was given to them.
The jury. after being out two hours, returned q
verdict of manslaughter and the prisoner was SEN
fenced to fifteen years at hard labor in the state
| prison, with one day solitary confinement.
The prisoner received the sentence in the SAINT
| disnerested manner which he has maintained
| throughout the trial

canal.
Mr. Wilson, from the committee on military

bill authorizing the issue of 1000 rfled breech-
leaders and ammunition to the authorities of
Montana for the defence Of the settlers against

The senate consumed the morning upon the
bill TO fix the time for election for presidential
electors in Louisiana.
After disposing of the post office appropria-

Mr.. Sumner moved to strike ont all after the

ruled this motion in order, and an appeal was
taken from the decision of the chair, and this
gave rise to Il wide d scussiOn.
After long discussion the appeal was tabled

Mr.. Hill moved To amend the bill so as to

Mr.. Sherman advocated the adoption of Mr.
Summers bill as Il substitute for the amnesty

pOruuiy for fair vote on the question Of civil
rights; aud said he believed that If that ques-

bill would pass the senate by n three lourhs

HEADQUARTERS OF TREvINo's FORCES, REY
NosA, May Ga visit to this camp shows the
cause OF the failure TO attack Matamoras. What
ever the original force lrevinO's army was, he
has now only II pieces of artillery. 700 infantry
and 400 cavalry. The balance has deserted and
scattered. His army is completely demoralzed
and destitute. majority of his officers are
shoeless and dismOunted, their animals being
unable to walk. The men, without pay or food
are stealing and begging. The country is cleaned
OF horses, cattle and small stock, and the whole
army is afraid of CevalIo's pursuing.
Should the government forces appear. Treyi.
nos army would dissolve and abandon theil
wagons, artillery and everything. 1t is evident
that Ireyino never intended TO attack MatamOr-
ms. He was told the national guards would
open the city to him, and when undeceived he
retired. TreYlno says Juarez is certain to be
0vefthrown by this or another revolution.
There is no confidence between officers and men
of the revolutionary forces. There is no basis
for any of the exaggerated reports as to the
doings of the revolutonsts in the interior. The
truth is there is no force of any magnitude, only
small bands in various states preyiug on the
people. The universal opinion among the lead
ers here is that Diaz is dead and that the report
OF his being in JaliscO is untrue.
Nothing is known of the government opera
tons in the interior There are no sigus of A
force coming hither From present appearances
the government, with 1000 troops, could pacify
INC hoilheIu HOntler. Many cOmmlSS toner's
from the interior are here. They expected to
buy arms after Matamoras was taken, and they
regard the failure as a death blow to the revolu-
tionary cause. Trevino, with his troops, has
just started for Camargo. He says he will
await Ceyalos there, but he VIII doubtless go on
to Monterey.
MATAMoRAs, May 7-Cortna, long com.

their performances are exceedingly good, that
their action is fine, and that their time and ieath

somewhat deficient in dash and power, betrav a
disposition TO hang at the finish of the stroke,
and do not pick out the blades cleanly and
promptly Practice will, however, rcctiry these
faults. The London boatmen all regard the New

miration of spectators. A great struggle is Ger.
