A SlcKENING CRIME. A wealthy Danish
lady, just married, had an arm torn from
her body in the late railroad disaster in New
Jersey. On one of the fingers of this arm
was diamond ring of great value. When
the arm was searched for it was found thal
one of The train hands had stolen and secret ed
it to obtain the ring. The arm and rin2
were recovered, and the lady is in fail
way to recover. Human depravity cannot
be described by human language.

A GRANT SPECULATION.

We have had the following article, which
appeared in the California Demokrat, a
German paper, on the 18th inst, translated
by lady friend
at might be interesting for a good many OF
the readers of this paper to know that on the
9th OF June of this year, Congress passed law
ordering that from the lst of August there shall
be no more ten gallon kegs of beer sold.
This order was received from Washington by
the department Of the United states Internal
Revenue Office of this city, only day before
Yesterday; and, at tie same time, directions
we're given to all collectors to send back to
Washington all stamps for ten gallon kegs which
were not sold by the 3lst Of July.
ANYBODY who doubts the truth of this most
singular, and at the same time most arbitrary
law, can assure themself of its existence by
making inquiries at the office OF the Internal
Revenue in this city.
Without giving any value to this law of Con
gress we call the attention of the public and the
brewers on this coast to it,and leave it to them to
take steps to have the law modified or taken
under revision.
1t would seem that this law was passed to
catch the brewers. Grant and his ring will
have agents out to buy up all the ten gallon
kegs and sell new eight gallon kegs. When
Congress meets in December the law will be
again changed to ten gallon kegs and the
Grant ring will have the old kegs on hand to
supply the brewers. Why, this about as
good thing on the brewers as the red
sandstone quarry was on the government
for Grant and his thief pimps.

CArAoAzY, hte Russian minister at
Washington, fell into disrepute because his
wife was more accomplished and handsome
than any of Grants official plugs wives.
For this reason alone he was treated dis
coureously, and felt the indignity kcenly.
1t seems now that through the facilities fur
nished by the European embassies and their
spies, Catacazy gained possession of all
he rascali,cs that were taking place under
Grant, and 10y his thieves at Washington,
md now proposes to make them public for
consideration. If he really knows one-enh

THE BALTIMORE CONVENTION.

The Democratic National Conveniion was
called to order promptly at IL o'clock NJ.
Tuesday .last, by August Belmont, Chair
man of the Democratic National Committee,
who presented the name of Thomas Jefferson
Randolph, of Virginia, for temporary Chair
man of the Convention, remarking that this
Thomas Jefferson Randolph was a scion of
the author of the Declaration of Independ-
ence, and stating that he believed it an
auspicious omen that the grandson Of Thomas
Jefferson is to inaugurate the struggle of the
Democracy for free lom and equality.
Randolph, on taking the chair, remarked
dat lie did not deem the honor conferred
was due to any personal merit, but was a
cecosnition of other circumstances, possibly
ldventtious. lie was, perhaps, the oldest
man in he convention, (being over eighty
years of age) He stated that he could
distinctly remember every Presidential con-
test from Jefferson's first election down; but
he rememb bered none which demanded of the
party more earnest and persistent efforts to
place the government in honest hands than
the present.
Frederick O. Prince of Massachusetts, was
chosen temporary Secretary and E. 0 Bren,
Of New York temporary Recording Secretary.
Committees on Credentials and Organization
were appointed, and the rules Of the last
Democratic Convention were adopted. After
a recess, the Convention re-assembled at
P NJ. and, proceeded 10 the permanent
organization. Fix L. S. Senator James r.
Doolitte, of Wisconsin, was reported by the
committee for President, with Vice Presi-
dent and Secretary from each State and
Territory. Senator Bayard of Deleware,
and Governor. Hoffman of New York escorted
the permanent President to he chair, who,
after prolonged applause, proceeded to ad-
dress the Convention at considerable length.
He reviewed the Liberal movement from its
first start in Missouri down TO the present.
He eulogized the actions and impulses which
characterized those who composed the Gin
cinnati Convention. lie reviewed the actions
of the Philadelphia Convention, stating that
those conventions were held before many of
the State conventions of Democrats and
Republicans. Before those conventions was
the question whether they would coop
crate with the Liberal Republicans, adopt
their platform and accept their candidates, Or
whether they would refuse the invitation and
nominate other candidates and try to elect
them over all opposition. The question: he
said, is now before you and do not doubt
but you will decide wisely. And wisely
have they dec ded it.
When the roll was called on the Presiden-
tial nomination, the first ballot resulted
Greeley, CSC; James A. Bayard, Is; J. S.
Black, 81; Groe,beck, 2. Greeley's NOM
nation was then made unanimous. On roll
c,ll for n nomination for Vice President,
Brown received 713; Stevenson, of Kentucky,
s; Bnck, 13. The Cincinnati platform was
adopted without change.
