THE PRESIDENCY.
British Opinion Of the Baltimore Nomination
What the London Press Says Of
Greeley and Grant
TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD.

LONDON, July II, 1871
The London Times Of this morning. In an editorial
article upon the nomination of Horace Greeley by
the Democratic Convention at Baltimore for Presi-
dent OF the United States, says:-"There never was
exhibited more 1agrant instance of party de-
moralization. The democrats swallowed their 0p-
pOnents' platform and candidates, confessng that
they had none OF their own to present. President
Grant, during four years, has committed no irre-
mediable blunder, and In saying this we give him
but faint praise. Nobody believes that Mr.. Greeley
could be President OF the United States four months
without making some terrible mistake. The discre-
tiOn, prudence and temper requisite for proper
performance OF the functions OF President Of the
United States are all wanting in Mr.. Greeley. We
cannot believe that the American people will elect
man who is so deficient IN every magisterial
quality"
The London Ne,os calls attention to the fact that
Mr.. Greeley was nominated at Baltimore on the
first ballot and at Cincinnati the SIXTH and rea-
sons from this that ''the democrats are even more
enthusiastic In his support than the liberal repub-
licans." 'However," says the London Ne,os, 'what-
ever may be the result of the Presidential election
In America there will be change In the relations
OF England with that country"
The other London journals make no comments
upon the American nomination.
