Abiding to the rumor that there
is a conspiracy set atoot by the Re
no,ninationists to tamper with the
Baltimore Convention and to buy up
Democratic delegates enough to Sc
cure a straight Democratic nonina-
ton, The Richmond Wing says "We
believe it will fail, as all other devices
have heretofore failed. The popular
sentiment is too strong in favor oi
the Liberal ticket to be resisted. >
The truth is, these gentlemen have a
notion that everybody is for sale.
They are in the Presidential market
because they are paid to be there,
or expect to be paid and SO they
fancy that if they only had money
enough, they could buy up the whole
Baltimore Convention body and
brccches.

Beauty of Women.

A New York contemporary draws
a parallel between American and
English women, and, by very easy
line Of argument, makes out the for
mer to be by far the most beautiful
Of course the standard of female
beauty varies SO with countries and
climate that each nationality con-
ceives beauty according to its own
fashion. The Africans, Of course,
figure. beauty as black or bronze,
with swollen lips, and to make the
lower lip more beautiful, some tribes
render it pendulous by attaching
heavy jewels or weighs to it through
artificial holes. In Peru the longest
ears are considered the handsomest,
and great mark of beauty in the
females. Some people stain their
teeth black and some red, and in
Basque the women do not consider
themselves fit for brides until they
have shaved their heads close to the
skin.
The Mexican women rejoice in
low foreheads and very thick heads
of hair-the blacker the better, and
the coarser it is the higher the ap-
preciation while the Italians ven-
crate red, golden and light hair
The Spanirrds fancy light, slender
figures in their women s. the Italians,
on the contrary, are fond Of full de-
velopments of limb and figure. The
Orientals and Westerns are also at
complete antipodes as to the man
ner in which they interpret beauty,
and what relates to it. The Eastern
women use yellow cosmetics, while
the French and English dread that
tinge in their complexions Tho
Asiatic, whether of China or Siam,
is delighted with the olive skin and
high cheek bones of the Mongolian
women.

The Irish, rightly and wrongly
get credit for almost all the bulls
that go the round Of the papers. 1t
was an Irishmau who wanted to find
a place where there was no deaths,
that he might go and end his days
there. It was an Irish editor that
exclaimed, when speaking Of the
wrongs of Ireland "Her cup Of
misery has been for ages overaowing
and is not yet full r. It was an Irish
newspaper that said Of Robespierre
that he left no children behind him
except q brother, who was killed at
the same time" It was On Irish
coroner who when asked how he &C
counted for all extraordinary NOR
tality in Limerick, replied sadly -
"I cannot tell. There are people
dying this year that never died be-
FORE" 1t was an Irish handbill that
announced with boundless iberality,
in reference to great political de-
monstration in the rntunda, that

Among the killed in the recent
battle at Monterey was Ezekiel Steele,
an American, who was we'll known
throughout Mexico as the pioneer
cotton manufacturer. He was in
that county before the Mexican Wit

taken command of q regiment under
General Trevino. Almost during

Republican:
New York, June 23.-Having re-
ceived the personal congratulations
of majority of those attending the
Fifth Avenue Hotel conference, MIR.
Greeley yesterday repaired to Chap
paqua, accompanied by a party of
about thirty, including his daughter
Ida, and several journalists. Mr..
Greeley declined to converse about
Fridays Free Trade nominations,
but sent for what he cnlls his "Cin-
cinnati OK" Armed with this favor
able implement, the thermometer
standing at nincty-five in the shade,
he cut down four l.rgc naples, and
trimmed of the branches. A repaat
followed, at which Miss Ada Greeley
presided. The Herald says that in
view Of the probability Of her be-
coming, next yea, the lady Of
the White House, she is entitled to
description. She is young lady Of
eighteen, of medium height, hand-
some, with dark eyes, shapely fea-
lures and the fine complexion Of her
father. Her manners are affable and
cordial, in conversation ready and
sprightly, and, from the manner in
which she presided at the table, it is
evident her domestic accomplish
ments are thorough. Greeley's po-
litical companions were terrified yes
terday to see the next President hop
ping about from limb to limb, fifteen
feet from the ground, but their pro-
tests were useless, and Mr.. Greeley
finished his weekly constitutional,
looking the freshest and healthiest
Of the whole party.

The ScHoo1MAsrER OF CALIFORNIA
A pedagogue in Curlew, who was
had up" for numerically welting
the back of little girl, justified the
action by explaining that "she per-
sisted in finging paper pellets at him
when his back turned" That is no
excuse. The Town Crier once
taught school up in the mountains,
and about every half hour had to re-
move his coat and scrape off the
dried paper wad adhering to the nap.
He never permitted a tride like this
to upset his patience he just kept
on wearing that garberdine until it
had no nap and the wads would not
stick. But when they took to dip
ping them in mucilage he made a
complaint to the board Of directors.
"Young man." said the chairman,
"ef you don't like our ways, you'd
better sling your blankets and git.
Prentice Milford tort skule yer for
morn six months, and he never said
q word agin the wad."
The Town Crier briefly explained
that Mr.. Milford might have been
brought up on paper wads, and
didn't mind them.
"It amt no use," said another
director, "the children hev got to
be amused"
The Town Crier protested that
there were other amusements quite a
diverting but the third director
here arose and remarked
II perfectly agree with the cheer ;
this youngster better travel. I con-
slider as paper wads lies at the root
of poplar edyercation they're a

TEN. Mr.. Chairman, I move that

observe the result OF the voting.

citation, said. with regard to the
treatment Of Insane persons, be
thought the fashion of at once dis.
patching o lunatic to an asylum
should by no means be necessarily
followed in all casses. Many cases
recovered without ever being sent to
an asylum, and many cases were
on record which baffled oil treatment
while resident in an asylum, but rap
idly recovered, after effecting their
escape.
N. Comte was {, notable instance
Of this. He was IN inmate of Es-
quirol's Asylum, but, managing to
effect his escape, he recovered and
wrote his famous work on Positive
Philosopher" On tho whole DR..
Mandsley thought that only in a very
few cases, was it absolutely necessary
to send the patient to an asylum
The recovery of many patients was
retarded by the absence Of " home
influence" and the utter banishment
from their friends and relatives
which was entailed upon them. It
was unfortunate that the treatment
Of the insane had become a narrow
speciality and it would be an excel
lent thing if the State would author
ize medical men to receive a very
small number, say two or three, in
sane patients in their houses. He
believed that patients placed in this
position, would be more likely to do
we'll, than those who were sent to
larger establishments.-The Lancet,

ing Massachusetts district. What
more natural than for him to suggest
the name Of one Of his old political
associates for the purpose Of aliena-
ting the out-and-out free traders
from the support Of GrecleyP The
object being to weaken the latter 80
that he may bring in Grant with fly
ing colors Another reason that is
urged for tho belief that Butler is at
the bottom of the Bryant movement
is. the ready support given to it by
one of the New Orleans journals,
which is popularity supposed to be
controlled to great extent by the
influence Of tho distinguished repre-
sentative from Massachusetts. Evi-
IDENTIFY the whole thing is a dodge
resorted to in the Grant interest, and
just the thing to be taken up by q
paper that is really running in that
.rut, while pretending to be dissatis-
fed with its position. William Cul-
len Bryant has no chance at all of
being elected, and none know this
better than those who are calling
upon him to try for it. Tho result
will be too insignificant to attend at
tention, and will not probably spread
beyond New Orleans, where it will
be forgotten before the election.

The Bryant Movement.

Certain parties who support Grant
for the Presidency, either openly or
coyertly, profess to be dissatisfied
with the nominee of the Cincinnati
Convention. And in q meddlesome
and officious spirit they are constant
ly suggesting other candidates, whom
they declare to be more available
The object is, of course, to distract
aud divide the strength of the party
opposed to Grant, SO that they will
lose the election. A few old gentle
men, who are respectable enough,
perhaps. in everything but political
acumen, recently called a meeting in
New York under the pretense of con-
sidering the free trade question, and
taking some action upon the Presi-
Dental question. A very small hand
full of men responded to the call,
and little seance was held Of the
Fifth Avenue Hotel. The whole af-
fair did not rise to the dignity of an
ordinary ward meeting. Mr.. Groes-
beck, who was not present, and takes
no interest in the movement, was
nominated for President, and the
meeting adjourned. An effort has
been made in another quarter to gal
vanize a little life into the long de-
funct name Of Jerry Black, of Penn
sylvania. He has also been nomina-
ted. Mr.. g. Kerr, of Indiana, re-
ceived a like compliment from a
country paper in Louisiana. Some
indiscreet friends Of Judge Davis
have endeavored to feel the public
pulse in regard to their candidate,
but the response was anything but
flattering, and the doctors put up
their watches and shook their heads.
The latest nomination of the kind
is that of William g. Bryant, Of the
Evening Post. He was one Of those
who figured in the free trade meet
ing in New York, at which Groes-
beck was nominated, and probably
has not heard yet Of the honorable
mention his name has received. But
there is more significance attached
to this last named piece of strategy
than to any of the Others. It is be-
lieved that the idea originated with
General Butler, who is known to be
the chief manager Of the campaign
in the Grant interest. The General
is an old time Democrat, and holds
to all his free trade notions, though
he never thought proper to trouble
Congress with them while represent

GREELEY DELEGATES CHOSEN TO BAL
T1MoRE.
ATLANTA, Ga, June 26.-The Dem
ocratic Convention, which assembled
here at 10 o'clock this morning, was
the largest gathering Of the kind
ever known in Georgia. Nearly
every prominent politician in the
State was present. Contrary to ex-
pectation, there was no speech-mak-
ing. The resolutions adopted pro-
fess adherence to the organization
and time-honored principles Of the
Democratic party. The delegates to
Baltimore are left untrammeled by
any instructions. The following are
the names Of those chosen to repre-
sent the State at large Gen. John
B. Gordon, A. r. Wright, Thomas
Hardeman. A. H. Colquet, H. L.
Benning, Julian Hartridge and G.
T. Goode. Eighteen district dele
gates were als chosen. The senti-
ment of the Convention, as was
shown in the selection Of the dele
gates, was overwhelmingly in favor
of the Cincinnati ticket, still, out of
tenderness for the feelings Of the
minority, and to preserve harmony,
no instructions were given.
The following resolutions were
adopted /:
Resolved, That the Democratic
party Of Georgia stands upon the
principles of the Democratic party
Of the Union, bringing into special
prominence, as applicable to the
present extraordinary condition Of
the country, the Interchangeable doc
trine that this is q Union Of States,
and that the indestructibility of their
equality with each other is an indis-
pensable part Of our political sys-
tenn.
RESOLVED, That in the approaching
election the Democratic party invites
everybody to cooperate in a jealous
determination to change the present
usurping and corrupt Administra-
tion, by placing in power men who
are true to the principles Of consti-
tutional government and q faithful
and economical administration of
public affairs.
Resolved, That in our opinion the
delegates to the Baltimore Conven-
ton should 60 untrammeled by in
structions, and should act with oil
the lights before them, as they deem
best for the good Of the party and
for the welfare of the country.

RICHMOND, Va, June GA bril-
liant demonstration in favor of Gree

tonight. An immense ratification
meeting was held at the theater,
which was addressed by Gov. Wal
ker and a number Of other promi-
nent men. An hour before the meet
ing began Broad street, for the space
of half mile, was, densely crowded
with people. Bon6res were liz hted,
guns fred, and brilliant displays of
fireworks took place from the front
of the theater and from the head
quarters Of tho numerous Greeley
clubs A fine torch-light procession
paraded the principal streets with
banners and transparancies, bearing
q great variety of striking devices
and pertinent notices. The follow
ing inscription upon one Of the tran

Only q small fraction of the i'm
mense crowd could get into the the
ater. The greatest enthuiasm was
manifested, and the warmest express
sions Of the speakers in favor of
peace and good will, and fraternal
feeling between the North and South
were indorsed by hearty applause
Mr.. Greeley's name was loudly cheer
ed whenever spoken. The young
men of Richmond took the leading
part in getting up the demonstra-
ton, but nearly all the prominent
politicians participated.
The Conservative State Conven-
ton meets, tomorrow, to elect dele
gates to Baltimore. Nearly all the
members have arrived, and the opin-
ion in favor of the Cincinnati ticket
is absolutely unanimous It is be-
lieved that there will not be single
man in tho Convention opposed to
Mr.. Greeley. The sentiment is so
strong throughout the State that
there was serious talk lately among
many leading politicians of sending
no delegation at oil to Baltimore. in
order to show that Virginia consid-
cred the ticket already made which
she meant to support. This course
will not be followed, however. A
unanimous Greeley delegation will
be chosen, tomorrow, and the Con-
vention will express its views upon
the issues Of the day in unequivocal
terms. Thirty thousand majority is
predicted for Greeley in Virginia.
