Brown and SehurZ.

The effort of Gratz Brown to deny his
bad treatment of SChurz and the bitter dis
appointment of the latter at the result of
the convention is all folly. The course
pursued by Judge Stallo, who entertained
Schurz, and who is recognized as one Of
his most intimate friends, would satisfy
all doubling minds if anything else was
necessary. Samuel Bowles writes to the
Springfield (Aiass.,) Republican III this
style:
My review and record of this notable
convention are not complete without re-
ference to its distinguished leader and
President, the real master spirit of the
movement, whose first National Conven-
tion carried so severe a blow and sharp
wound to him personally. The conduct Of
Gov. Brown, and its resultant nomination
of Mr.. Greeley, were indeed a sad surprise
and serious blow to Carl Schurz Pledg-
ing in faltering voice his support OF the
nomination to the convention, he left it
weary with labor and sad in spirit for the
house of his friend, Judge StalIo. Enter
ing there circle of equally disappointed

What Will the Democracy Do?

The Washington correspondent of the
New York E'Uening Post, (disgusted Lib
eral republican, sends the following un-
der date of the 7th inst:
a representative who has made a careful
canvass among the Democrats in the
House and Senate says that not one Dem
ocrat in ten is in favor of Mr.. Greeley
The feeling is almost unanimous in favor
of nominating a regular ticket. A promi-
nent Southern Democrat says that just at
the present time Mr.. Greeley seems very
popular in the South, but when the sober
second thought comes, and the people re-
fleet that he has supported every measure
advocated by President Grant, and has
favored the continuance of the kuklux
law, and OF the suspension of the writ of
habeas corpus in the outhern States, a re-
action will set in, and Mr.. Greeley will be
far from popular. This Democrat adds
that during the late war the Southern peo-
pie lost everything but their honor, and
that they would lose that, too, by support
ing the Cincinnati nominee.

CLOSING INCIDENTS OF THE CONVENTION
The jubilee Oh Friday night was an en-
inent success, rejecting the highest honor
on Greeneville. Some two or three hun
dred children convened, and under the di-
rection of Mr. Dukes and his choir, they
made most delightful music. I think
Greeneville may well be proud of its mu-
steal talent. I have seldom seen so many
BRIGHT rosy-faced, healthy young girls,
with such sweet voices. Several pieces,
such as the Sweet By and By" were re-
peated by request. Addresses were made
by Messrs. Washburne, Rogers, Lyons,
Richards, Anderson and AtweIl.
Among the gentlemen of Greeneville
particularly active in contributing to the
success of the convention were Messrs. J.
A. Galbraith, D. c. Dukes, D. r. Britton
and Revs. w. B. Rankin, S. V. McCorkle
and J. A. Ruble.
The thanks of the convention were ten
dered the Fast Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia Railroad for half fare tickets to
the citizens of GreenevilIe for their hos
pitality; to the choristOr and choir for eX-
cellent music, and to the officers of the
convention for their satisfactory discharge
of duty.

ventiOn, now in session in this city. So
far its deliberations have been of great in
terest and profit. Assembling here at a
time when the community was thrown

terest that it would otherwise have done,
and yet we were gratified to see how cor
dial and deep an interest the community
take in the proceedings. Greene county

address of fifteen minutes at the close of
this mornings session on "The Decline of
Morals in Our Country"

siding officer, and Rev. J. Lyons an eff
cient clerk
Mr.. David Richards, of Knoxville, as
usual, ,enlivens the convention by his plain,
sensible and characteristic talks He is
always heard with delight and profit.
The President holds the convention close
