unanimous. In the long and stormy ses,ion oil
the committee on resolutions, Judge Steele, as
happen to know, was sn influential member. and
made very favorable impression on the other
members Of that able committee. The frat three
panks of the platform were drawn by Judge
Steele, and believe also that in favor Of civil
service reform-a larger portion of the report
than was the work Of any other one man.
The selections of the delegation for the various
committees and officers were made with entire
harmony and their choice of Hon. George Nichols,
as the Vermont member Of the National Execu-
tive Committee, will commend itself to the ap-
prOval of the republicans of cur State, with
whom Dr. Nichols is so general favOrite.

The South and the Presidency.

=
The South has been claimed by Mr. Greeley
Snd his supporters, as enthusiastic for the Tin
cinusti platform aud nominees In 8 measure
this lie true. for the extremists of that lstitude
seem disposed to accept Mr.. Greeley because be
bliled JEFF Davis, and shook hands with him,
and slso denounced carpet bsggerf during his
famous trip to Texas But sane minds among
the ex-Confederstes, like Col. Mosby, Prof.
ETell, and Gen. wickhsm, dol not shsre in this
hurrah for the Tribune philosopher. They
see that if the whole South were committed
against the election of Gen. Grant. he or the Re
publican party could have 10 motives to endesvor
to preserve = conciliatory policy They know
TOO that until recently Greeley has been the life
long enemy of the So nth, while Grant has been
the generous conoueror and, AZ Col Mosby in
his celebrated letter says. "the instrument Of exc
cutting many laws obnoxious to them, which
were enacted under the pressure of public
opinion, created by Greeley, which ne man could
resist
The beat men Of the South sreitred Of turmoil.
They want peace and can see no hope for it with
the bringing into power Of such set of political
,1ankrupts aad adventures as Mr.. Greeley will
be surrounded with, on his accession to the
Presidency. In General Grant they re-
CO zqize an homes. man and patriot,
who hiss pity for the Southern people. They
bel ieve that the South hgs more to hope for, in
the way Of wise measures Of concilistion, from
him than from the man who was loudest in hif
dema.lls for vengeance" when such cries we're
likely to be popular, anu who only changed his
tune when be hoped to become President by
democratic votes.
Upon this roin; Col. Mosby thus declares
himself;

The NOMINATIONS IN New YoRK.-The an
ncuncement Of President Crafts denomination
created quiet sort of enthusiasm throughout
New York. There were no boisterous demon
STATIONS because no one was suddenly surprised
Ly the news; but men all over the city, down
town ia tine bgc;re,s streets, and IN the
hotels and at the Union Leseue GLIB. exchanged
hearty congratulations as over the fulhlment Of
s long anticipated and altogether joyous event
But over the result Of the contest for Vice Preti-
dent there was during the day considerable ex-
citcment. Men we're gathered about the bulletin
boards ard newspaper Offices all the afternoon
speculating on the situation, &n9 vhen the des-
patches we're buletned announcing thst Wilson
was chosen, the cheering was strong and clear.
At night republicans crowded tho Union
League GLIB rooms, and the hotel loobies, e.
pecislly those of the Fifth Avenue and the Grand
Central. to talk over the result. Almost the
universal expression Was that wilson was the
best choice that could possibly be made. " Col
