WHERE Is TWEED PoL1r1cA1LY2 -Mr. viii
liam M. Tweed has been interviewed by one of
our reporters, with view Of discovering his
position on the Presidential question. The
result is not very satisfactory. The deposed
Tammany chief intends to go wherever he is
well treated, and that, he thinks, is not in tho
Greeley ranks. He doubts if Greeley will
carry New York city, much less the State;
claims to control twenty thousand votes; to
be able to carry all the city south Of Fourteenth
street; thinks Apollo Hall stronger than
regenerated Tammany; believes Judge Church
the strongest man for Governor, Seymour the
weakest, Herman doubtful and Slocum tolera-
bly, good Only one certain thing can be dis
covered, and that is that Mr. Tweed has made
no promises, that his friends are ''down' on
Mr.. Greeley, and that he is in a state Of I'M
certainty himself, everything depending upon
how he is treated.

the prompt and efectual aid rendered by the
garrison the grand old building, which has
survived the ravages of seven centuries might
have been reduced to ashes. Happily, the
fremen obtained control OF the flames, and
shortly before noon the fire was extinguished
but not until about one hundred and fifty
feet of the roof were completely destroyed. 1t
will crafty many of our readers who
have visited the grand old structure and
admired its monuments Of medieval art. as
well as the costly improvements which
have been made in recent years, to learn that
the shrine of st. Thomas i Beckett has not
been injured. The mosaic pavement of the
cathedral was covered with molten lead which
had dropped from the burning roof, and the
altar was deluged with water; but it was found
possible, after the fire was extinguished, and
In spite Of the smoke which filled the interior
of tho edifce, TO carry on the daily religious
services, which have not been intermitted in
three hundred years. The cathedral has
during the present century, and particularly
during the present reign, undergone very ex-
tensive repairs. 1t is matter for regret that the
beauty of the odifce should in any way have
been marred; but we mny rest assured that the
work Of repair will be begun at once, and in
as brief a space Of time as possible all traces
Of the fire will have disappeared.

The Syracuse Conventional Large
Attendance Of Liberals and Demo-
Gratis. 49,. .'.-N
The Democratic and Liberal Conventions
which assemble In Syracuse to-day are very
largely attended The reports from that city,
published elsewhere, state that the numbers
present last night exceed all former State
Conventions. The hotels were filed, the
halls and passages filed with cots,
and late corners we're compelled to seek
accommodation in private houses. The lib
eral republicans ore present in great force,
outsiders as well es delegates; and, while
there are some indications Of soreheaded-
ness among them, they are for the most part
representative men. The Liberal Convention,
it is said will be such representation Of re-
publicanism as used to be seen in Lincoln s
time, and among the delegates ore many Of
the fathers of the organization.
The democrats are also gathering in strong
force, and it is remarked that there is graft
flying absence of the 'plug ugly element,
which the rings have Of late years drawn about
the party conventions There are some indi-
cations of jealousy in regard to the candidates,
the democracy apparently claiming the right
to make the nominations to suit themselves
and the republicans desiring to have something
to soy on the subject. This difficulty will,
however, be overcome. and the proceedings
will, no doubt, be harmonious and enthu-
siastic. Judge Church is said to be
the fayorite for Governor. but his refusal to
accept is announced as positive by his friends.
Francis Herman, of Utica, and Augustus
Schell, of New York, appear to be the next on
the list, with an increasing feeling in favor Of
Mr. Schell. Thus far all the names suggested
have been good ones, and the Horatio Sey-
mour farce appears to have died out If the
Conventions are prudent in their action, and
give an earnest of their sincerity in the cause
of reform both in their candidates and plat
form, they will be able to make gallant fight
in the State. MY o. ...-...-.'

can people know Charles Sumner and do not
require any evidence of his integrity and con-
sistency other than is supplied by long and
honorable career. -. .-r q ~
The important point of Senator Summers
speech is contained in his plea for reconcilia-
ion between the two sections of the country
and the two races as essential to peace and
happiness In this he touches the popular
sentiment, and his words are the more valua-
BILE and imp ressive as the words of o states
man who has devoted the best years of his life
to the cause of human freedom. The present
condition of the Southern States is scandal
and reproach to the nation, and the people of
the North are beginning to realize the fact.
The history of the carpet-bag rule forced upon
he Southern people by the radicals makes o
terrible exhibit Since the war the debts and
liabilities Of the ex-rebel States have
increased from seventy-sx millions to
over two hundred and ninety millions, and
in some States the robberies have been
80 boldly and recklessly committed that
there is scarcely an attempt at concealment
This plumber and the determination to control
the vote OF the South in the Presidential cleo
tions have lain at the foundation of the arbi-
trary treatment of the Southern whites, of the
extension of military rule over peaceful COM
munities, and of the attempt to keep alive the
passions of the war and the old hatreds of
slavery. The people now understand why the
false reports of rebel outrages and intrigues in
the South ore circulated by the republican
orators and journals, and why people who
have honestly accepted the results Of the war,
who have renounced all their secession senti-
ments, and who ask only for peace and consti-
tutional freedom, arc persistepuY misyepye-

piuuuel Ois tue puDuc treasury, ana tnaC our
expenses would have been kept down to a rea-
sonable rate. Nevertheless, under the most
favorable circumstances, Mr.. Lincoln might
have been puzzled to put down the Southern
rebellion on the principle of ''pay as you Co."
If we are never to have honest government
until this principle prevails we fear we shall
long be the victims of knavery.
Mr.. O'Conor's letter, says the general report
Of the proceedings, "failed to elicit any
response" and was referred to the Com
mittee on Platform but one indiscreet
individual from Kentucky, after it had been
read, created temporary excitement In the
Convention by moving an adjournment till
November 20, and was put out He subse-
quently explained that he thought Mr.. O. Conor
recommended the Convention TO merge itself
into the Greeley movement and "his intense
detestation Of Greeleyism" induced the indis-
erection. After Blanton Duncan's speech, the
venerable Chatfield and Chauncey Burr, of
New York, addressed the Convention, as did
also Mr.. J. Lyons, the President, who ridiculed
the Greeley party as dolly Warden" party
joke that can scarcely claim the merit of
originality. The Convention il evidently
failure, as it was natural that it should be;
and the least ridiculous thing the people in
attendance can do is to endorse tho nomina-
ton of President Grant and go home and work
for him until the evening Of election day. In
that manner alone are they likely to make the
movement pay.
