Greeley Will Stick.

We clip the following from the Washing
ton correspondent of the CODlDlcrctdt
A gentleman of much prominence in the
West wrote letter, not long ago, 20 Mr:
Greeley, with reference to his position, and
the complications which might arise in
connection with the Baltimore COnven-
ton, and making the inquiry whether or
not Mr.. Greeley would retire if the Demo-
Gratis at Baltimore should nominate a
separate candidate. To this letter Mr..
Greeley responded, that he should stand
by his editorial of April 10. Subsequent
ly the same gentleman, during a recent
visit to New York, had a conversation with
MI. Greeley upon the subject, when the
latter, in effect, stated that, after consider
ing the matter very carefully, and having
laid the question before some of his most
trusted friends for their opinion, he had
decided that he had no right to withdraw
as candidate that he did not seek the
nomination, and it having been intrusted
to him by so large body of men and hav-
ing received the Endorsement OF large
portion of the public, he doubted if he
could, with propriety, and with a proper
sense of his responsibility to them, retire
from the canvass.

CONGRESSIONAL.
SENATE.

WASHINGTON, June 6.--TheTe were
many factious amendments TO the clause
of the Appropriation bill giving quarter
Of a million dollars to Southern mail car
riers. when the matter went over until
Friday.
The bill to punish the obstruction of the
administration of justice in United States
Courts, passed. It goes to the President.
Chandler made an elaborate attack on
Sumner for statements regarding Stanton
and Grant. Sumner said he would read
one single letter to show the truth of what
he had said in reference to Stanton's opin
ion Of Grant. Before reading it, however,
he would declare that Stanton did say to
him what he had reported. He asserted
on this floor that this was so. Sumner
then read the following extract from a
letter from Horace White, of Chicago:
DEAR MIR. SUMNER: The late Secretary
Stanton, not once merely, but several
times, expressed himself to me substan-
tally the same opinion of General Grant
that he did to you, with the addition that
General Grant had been greatly overrated
as a military commander. As to the latter
point recall long conversation with him
after the fighting at SpOttsylvania Court
House, in which he, Stanton, expressed
more Apprehension of the results of the
campaign than I had ever known him to
feel cOncernin g any campaign he felt
that he could not cantinue to fill up the
awful gaps made by Lee in our ranks with
out a further call on the loyal States for
troops, but l suppose you know all about
that
During a portion of this conversation he
kept Chandler cooling his heels in the
ante-rOom in order to furnish what he had
to say to me, bohemian, although twice
suggested that it would be indecorous for
me to remain while a Senator desired an
audience.
The River and HarbOr bill passed and
gOes back TO the House for concurrence.
Most of the Southern appropriations
were increased. .-
Kelloggs amendments were all adopted.
The Red river raft appropriation of l50,
900 occasiOned considerable discussion, but
was finally adopted.

name before his death was household

of West Tennessee, from the Florida war
until Haslzell's death, giving an account
not only of his own action in the military
and political strifes he was engaged in, but
also of the many eminent men he met on
both fields, and is book that should be in

i Gallant Act,

Serious accidents on the streets by dri-
VerS of StreCt-carS and OnnibuSeS and 9TH
er vehicles, are not common in Memphis :;
neither are they altogether unknown.
Caution OH the part of parents and those
who have charge of children. are as neces-
sary to prevent the occurrence of accidents
in this way as caution on the part of the
drivers.
An accident of most serious. perhaps
fatal, nature was averted yesterday by the
cool intrepidity of the driver of car
No. 2, on the Main street line by the
name of Robert Maddox While
passing Market street about six o'clock
yesterday afternoon, and looking out for
passengers, little child not more than
two years old was standing right on the
track in front. The car was going at fair
rate of speed ut the time. A little girl in
car saw the child as the mules head
passed over where it was standing, and
she felt so certain that the little thing
was doomed, she covered her face and
cried out: my God save the child ~
The mule almost miraculOusly passed by
the child, whose head rubbed against the
side of the animal, without knocking it
down. The scream of the girl inside the
car was the first intimatiOn the driver
had that there was danger. The mo-
ment he carried his eyes to the front he
took in the situation at a glance. There
was no time to deliberate, not the hun
dreth part of a second, neither was
there time to pull up" and thus stop
the vehicle, for before that could be done
the child would be mass of jelly. The
driver took no time to think; he did not
need it. His presence of mind being per-
feet, he adopted the best mode of action
at once. Reaching over the dashboard
of the car, he grasped the child by the arm
up, he landed the dear baby safely inside
on the platform where he was standing
himself without infllcting any sort of in
jury, or even soaring the baby. When the
mother of the child discovered what dam
ger it had escaped, and at whose hands the
rescue was effected, her gratitude was
effected, her gratitude was boundless.
Every one that saw it said it was the most
heroic and coolest thing they ever had
any knowledge Of.-Memphis AppCuL
