be made the victim of a choice between two
evils. Men came from New York and Penn
sylvania who were as much intruders as the
devil was when he intruded himself among
the sons of men; they came and Outwitted
and Outnumbered them. He did not belong
to anybody now. He was not vet willing
to say that be would not vote for Grant,
but he should not vote for Greeley.
General Jack Easement asked if they
were not all pleased with the platform,
other members answered Eyes, yes" He
further inquired if Greeley was not an
honest man; what more was wanted! He
General Casement) had joined this move
ment and torn up his bridge behind him,
and he was going to stick by the nomination.
General Burnett said that he now felt
discouraged and disheartened.
He did not think that civil service reform
had anything to hope from the hands of
such men. Greeley was honest. progress
sive and liberal in his views, yet he was
man of crOchets. He had no judgment of
men. and his political friends and associates
in New York were among the men who did
not enjoy the public confidence, and who
were nearly allied TO the ammany cOrrup-
tiOn. Though he was deeply grieved at
the result to-day, he thought they ought to
maintain their organization for future work
and not take hasty steps which they might
repent.
Colonel Parrott, of Montgomery county,
said there never was more shameless trade
by men than that made by Gratz Brown in
the convention.
Mr. Fry, of Clark county, said that bar
gain and sale were evident. Some mem
bers asked where was the evidence. Mr..
Fry replied that the evidence was in GFatz
Browns speech.
Mr. Ayres, of the fourteenth district,
urged them not to judge too harshly, and
cOunseled moderation.
Mr.. BrinkerhOff announced his resignation
as a member of the State Central Commit
tee. He was not willing to abide by the de-
termination of the convention.
General S. LAME also declined to support
the ticket, and resigned his position as a
member of the State Central Committee.
Mr.. Spalding of CuyahOga, and Mr..
Smith, of COlumbiana, came to the defense
of the convention. The latter, in his re-
marks, said that Greeley was among the
first to fight Tammany, whereupOn two or
three persons arose, saying that he was not
he rather defended them.
Judge HOadley again got the floor, and
charging that Tammany had triumphed,
said that he would defeat Greeley aud
Brown if he had to vote for Grant to do it.
He was no Othce-seeker, but was after men
to punish them before they got their hands
into the public treasury. But he was not
in favor of abandoning their organization.
He said they should remain together, main
tanning their organization until the time
should arrive when their principles could
prevail.
Several others spoke for and against the
nominations, and finally after long session
a motion to adjourn prevailed.
A large number of delegates departed for
their homes last night.

The RefOrners,

The RefOrmers were out last night, hold
ing forth in the second ward, corner of St.
Charles and Calliope streets, where a wig
wan has recently been built out of lumber
contributed by the lumber merchants there
unto adjacent. The occasion was an cleo
ton to be held for two delegates to the
parish committee of the Reform party.
For long time but small audience gath
cred to recruit the energies of the Reform
ers, and one solitary black man, alone in
his glory, staggered around big as life.
The proceedings commenced in the an
nouncement by the chair that the meeting
was called to order. This announcement
was all the more proper, inasmuch as no
one would have known it unless the chair
had told them SO. The secretary read the
constitution and bylaws, which said
that any one, twenty-One years old could
become a member of the club if he
produced legal evidence that he lived in the
ward The election for delegates resulted
in the choice of William H. Deeves and
William Phillips to the post of delegates,
and these gentlemen marched straight
down to the rooms of the parish committee,
No. q CarOndelet street, to add their mite
to the works of that organization. Speakers
were called for. Mr.. Hinman, of the tenth
ward, declined to make speech, though
he said enough in conversation to define the
principles of the Reform party. Mr.. Roach
never made a speech in his life, so he said
and invited the Reformers outside to take
a drink on it, and the meeting wound up
with the sentiment of DR.. Lockwood, who
indOrsed Greeley. So endeth the Second
Ward Reform Club.
The solitary result OF the meeting of the
parish committee was the selection of
James Todd for president, w. C. Raymond
for vice president, A. w. Stewart for secre-
tary, and C. E. Slay back for treasurer.

WASHINGTON, May Andrew Johnson's
claims tor rebate on income tax amounts to
over $4,000.
The President, Secretary of State and
Foreign Committees of the House and Sen
ate had a conference to-day. The President,
when directly approached, said he did not
think it proper to communicate the object
or result OF the conference. The other par
ties to it were equally reticent.
From loose conversation the following
may be regarded as a close approximation
of the object of the meeting to-day, at the
State Department.; Mr. Schenck has mott
fed this government that England, under
no circumstances, will permit the question
of consequential damages to be presented
at Geneva 1t is noticed that the Demo
cractic members of the foreign committees
of the House and Senate were not invited
to the conference. Parties to the confer
ence having their mouths closed, a back

probable, in fact, is considered almost
certain.

gale, and canters over the plains in untold

The soil of these prairies excels in rich
ness any in the world, perhaps. Elegant
farms, with every comfort and convenience
of home, dotted here and there, give an air
of industrious life to the whole well pleas
ing, indeed. There is scarce a vegetable
production that these lands, by careful til
lage, may not be made to yield in rich
abundance.
We visited, few days since, the farm of
one Mr.. Barton, in the vicinity of this town.
1t was, indeed, delightful to see people so
entirely selfsustaining and Independent.
The table grOaned under the weight of its
generous burden, while the stables, grana-
ries and pantries were bursting with rich
plenty-aIl home production. The wheat
fields of this comfortable and hospitable
farmer flair specimens of the fields generally
around this distTict) are, indeed, feast to
the beauty loving eye. Wide, far-stretched
as the eye can span, the beautiful green
wheat plays wantOnly with the soft, per
fumed breezes, and waves gently in the
zephYr's arms, a sea of beauty and prom
ise of plenty. This gentleman tells me he
will average over forty bushels of fine
wheat to the acre. Come, We tOil-burdened
and weary ones, to land Of plenty, healCh,
wealth and beauty.
There is no country on the globe offers
brighter inducements to the immigrant,

possesses the people, and Open-handed

MEMPHIS, May 4.-The Cincinnati nomi-
nations are almost universally regarded as
the strongest that could have been made.
The appeal and the AUdIGnche unhesi-
tatingly indOrse the ticket.
DETROIT. May 4.-The Free Press says
that Mr.. Greeley is strong man with

lily indorses the nomination.
New YORK, May 4.-Ben Woods DGilg
NeCS tomorrow contains an editorial
strongly indOrsing the Cincinnati nominees
and platform.
WASHINGTON, May 4.-The surprise about
the Cincinnati nominations is subsiding.
Leading journals are much divided, but
the impression here very strongly favOrs
Democratic nominations, though the real
leaders of the party are TeticenG.
SYRACUSE, N. Y, May 4.-One hundred
guns were fired last evening in honor of
Greeley.
ALBANY, N. Y, May 4.-One hundred
guns were fired here in honor of Greeley.
PHILADELPHIA, May The Age suggests
a straight Democratic ticket
WASHINGTON, May 4-The nomination of
Mr.. Greeley, while it excites mirth in all
high political circles here, seriously changes
the probable programme of the Democrats
The Democratic leaders are virtually
pledged to the Cincinnati convention, with
Judge Davis as the standard bearer, but
now the shrewdest politicians predict
square Democratic nomination, with fair
prospect Of success, in view Of the interest
taken in the probable action of the Demo-
cratic party.
The following from the World is teIe-
graphed. 1t editorially expresses profound
surprise at the result in Cincinnati, and
says
Adams, who proved by far the strongest
of all the candidates who had been ex-
pected to be strong in the convention, might
have been cordially indorsed by the World,
as he would have been cordially supported,
by the Democratic party.
Mr.. Greeley can receive no such in1orsez
ment. Nor has he any reason to expect
such support. The convention has chosen
to nominate The most heated and cOnspicu-
GUS opponent OF the Democratic party in
the country, called for revenue refrOm, it
has selected the most Jealous of pTOtec-
tiOnists
This leaves the Democratic party entirely
free to await the developments of the imna-
dlate future, and opens the way FOR q r"s-..
bic Democratic victory.
The World will reserve its Judgment until
the meeting of the Democratic NaI"u7
Committee to be held uoXt week ln Jttz
city. 1t would recommend an early oef2
for the assembling uf the convention.

The Legislative Warrants in the Eighth
District Ourt-S3OO, OOO-''ShOO Fly"
After the trial of the twenty odd manda-
mus cases which came up before Judge
Dibble, yesterday, on vouchers, checks and
warrants of the Legislature, seeking to OBJ
tain Auditors warrants out of the apprO-
priaUiOn recently made to pay a remaining
balance Of the expenses of 1872, the Judge
was heard to remark that he could decide
all those cases in two words, viz: "ShOO
fly;" Whereupon, it is stated, one of the
Etigants threw his warrants, checks and
vouchers to the amount of several thousand
dollars, in sums of $500 to $4,000 each, on
the floor and table.
They were picked up by some of the at
tOrneys, and by direction of the court we're
counted, list made Of them, placed in an
envelope and given to the clerk for delivery
to the owner when called for. The evil
dence adduced yesterday exhibited the
greatest carelessness in the issuance of the
leg slative vouchers and checks in 1871
some of them not being even signed by the
Speaker-Others not numbered or entered,
and judging from the appearance of things,
it will not surprise us if the mass of them
are refused, and the whole matter remitted
to the next Legislature.
They can not be taken up in the funding G
bill, because that provides only for the Au-
ditOr's warrants and certificates of indebt-
edness, and the power to issue certificates
of indebtedness is taken from the Auditor.
No doubt some just claims will unfOrtu
nately suffer- but the majority of holders,
purchasing them cheaply, can well affo rd
to wait until our new Legislature con-
venes.
Our fnaacial condition requires the
greatest possible care, and we must do
nothing to weaken the public credit; and
whatever stands in the way of economy
and reform must be removed. The officers
must do their duty faithfully, the taxes
must be collected, and the revenues care
fully and judiciOusly applied.
All "shoo fly" paper must either go by
the board or await the action of the Legis-
lature to be ushered in jointly with the
election of the representatives of national
honesty and refOrm-Greeley and Brown.

Summers Mixed School BiII-NOtice of
an Amendment-Day of Debate in the
House.
WASHINGTON, May 4.-Sendte.-Mr. Sum
mer called up his bill fer mixed schools,
which meeting with some objection, Mr.
Summer threatened to object to every bill
until his was disposed of. He then moved
to take up the bill, which was agreed to.
Yeas 25, nays u.
Mr.. Bay ard, who was entitled to the floor
on the bill said it was an utterly unneces-
sary measure and uncalled for. The people
chiefly to he affected by it are opposed to
it: charity does not demand it. Justice,
either to the black or the white, does not
demand it. II is as unjust as it is uncalled
for, as Unwise as cruel. 1t was mere act
of visionary zeal.
He (Mr. Bayard) would show by the
school laws of this district that now most
ample and generous provisions were made
for the education Of the cOlOred people of
the district, and cheerfully, at the expense
of the white people. He believed that this
mixture of the two races would be fraugbt
with great evil to til, weaker race, and that
it would be most injurious to society.
There is not a white parent in this dis
trict, whose children attend the common
schools, who has asked for this bill.
There is not a Senator On this floor who will
vote for this bill whose children or grand
children will ever go to these schools to mix
with the negro children, but ;hey will vote
to force this association upon the children
of poor parents, who are compelled to send
their children TO the comm n schools
What kind of philanthropy is this!
The white people of this district are now
compelled to contribute most unequallY to
the support of the cOlored schools, and now
it is proposed to take from them the poor
privilege of doing as they please with the
rest of their money.
Mr.. Ferry, of Connecticut, gave notice of
an amendment providing that before the
act goes into effect it shall be submitted for
ratification to the qualified voters Of the
cities of Washington and Georgetown, at an
election to be- held on the first Monday Of
July, 1879. The bill then went over
The pOstofice appropriation bill occupied
the balance of the day.
House.-Entire day occupied in debate.

The Treasury Department in presenting
its objections to the steamboat bill pending
in Congress takes very strong ground
against any further legislation at all, pre-
ferring that the present law should stand
as it is than risk new legislation. But if
there must be legislation, it is preferred
that the present law be so amended as to
give the Secretary the appointing of the
supervising inspector general; to have
power to convene the board at Washington
or elsewhere if he sees fit, to frame new
rules and regulations to carry out the law,
and that he have the power to review the
rules and amend or approve them as he
pleases. The steamboat men are earnestly
opposed to the recommendations of the
Treasury Department.
