The New York Tinsss attempts to be
severe upon Carl Schurz for recommend
ing to the President German saloon
keeper of Lafayette. Indiana, named
John DoffiD. for the United States Con-
sulate at Nuremberg, because Doffin,
upon a certain occasion, presented Schurz
with bouquet and bottle Of cham
payne. If this be true, it proves that
Doffn vas only endeavoring to turn to
practical account the lessons taught him
by the present occupant of the White
House. He no doubt thought the best
way to secure Official patronage was to
make present. but the m stake he made
was to fee the man instead of the master.
Had he sent the bouquet and bottle Of
champagne to the right quarter. he
might now be tie Consul at Nurem-
berg.

The Grant Demo nstration,


There is but little to note in the com
ments of the New York press upon the
Cooper Institute meeting on Wednesday
evening. The World says editorially :
A public meeting which merely shows
that Grant has about as many friend S
left as he has lost IN this city, can give
him but cold comfort since, if the two
meetings are equal they would seem to
prove that the Republican party is split
in two in the middle. But it is on ly
necessary that small segment Of it
should cleave off to remand Grant to the
obscurity of private life.
The Tribune says:
Unlike the Liberal Republicans. who
made no special exertlons. hardly gave
their late meeting the ordinary publicity.
and incurred scarcely any expense about
it, the Grant men strained every nerve
! and exhausted all the devices for attract
ing atte1t ton, to make their demonstration
an overwhel lining success. They did not,
al ter all. get into the hall of the Institute
quite SO large an audience as that which
spontaneously packed it last Friday night
to hear Senators Trumbull and Schurz
The Herald says:
AS distinctly as that meeting Of Sep
TENDER last expressed the ind ignation of
the honest masses of this community at
the astounding disclosures of the corrup.
tons and crimes of the Tammany ring,
this meeting of last night was an ex
preston of the confidence Of the great
body Of our substantial citizens in the
honesty of General Grants Administra
ton and ia the safety of all the great in
terests of the people under his manage
ment of their National affairs
The Times (Grant organ says:
The character Of the meeting was as
remarkable as its magnitude 1t was
made up of all classes in the community.
Called together by the action Of the lead
ing business men Of the city, it embraced
greater number of the mef can sile class
than nave assemble in Cooper Institute
since the last Presidential campaign, it
We except Che great Reform meetings of
the Committee of Seventy, which alone
could approach IT..
The World also gives the following
incident of the manipulation of the
Postofice in the Grant interest. 1t says:
The following stirring appeal was
handed to every box-holder at the Post
Office yesterday with his mail

The distribution of these notices was
done, not at the expense of the persons
who prepared them. for they were net
prepaid, but at the public expense. 1t
was SO done in palpable violation of law,
and was an outrage upon every taxpayer.
An exhorta alton to a man to support
party which in the very act of exhor'ing
sw ndles him and breaks the law gives
rise in thinking men to sentiments the
reverse of those it is intended to inculcate

use all honorable means at the Cincinpatii
convention to secure the nomination OF
Chief Justice Chase for the Presidency.
A platform was adopted, liberal in
character. which briefly covers the follow

The perpe.uity and sovereignty of the
American Union the rcstora ton Of local
self-government; the preservation and
co ord ination of the three departments of

and judicial; an acceptance in good faith

There is now an apparent calm in

There is now an apparent calm in
Federal politics calm that precedea
q fearful struggle. The Radical Party
held together by plumber and bribery
shows unmistakeable signs Of dissolution.
Every effort has been made to bring back
the dissatis6 ed members. and to restore
harmony within its ranks. The effort bias
failed, and the Cincinnati Conven ton,
which was at FIRST considered Of no ina
peltance, has assumed such gigantic pro-
portions that leaders of Radicalism now
look on with fear and trembling" The
people have become aroused, the heart of
this mighty nation throbs with joy at the
prospect of deliverapce from the corrupt
and >fanatical party which has led the
people 10 ruin. From every section, of
the country the eys of true patriots are
turned TO this convention and from it is
expected to proceed new party bearing
.iott, as its standard. the watchward
aReform." Should other issues of minor
importance be dropped, and harmony be
st.ured in the effort to accomplish this
one great purpose, success will be assured,
and the thousands of petty office holders
that now fawn upen the present occupant
Of the white house, will not be slow to
egincc their readiness to desert the sink
,pg ship. We can only look on and await
with patience the result of this new move.
Upon it depends the action of the DEM
ocratic Party and the defeat or triumph
Of the present ALministra lion.

The Republican State Convention

The Republican State Convention
which was held at Richmond to nom mate
delegates 70 the Philadelphia Grant
Convention was marked by tho usual
scenes Of confusion and disorder The
contest between the carpet-baggers and
Scalewags was bitter, resulting in blows,
5ut finally securing the triumph of the
ccrpet bag element. The Richmond
| Dispatch gives the following. account OF
the fight:
A'rREH Plight.
The chair did not dec ide the point OF
order at once, and Mr. Bowden continued
his remarks DIN id the conside rable confu-
sion. About twenty members sought to
obtain the floor. Numerous points Of or
der were raised. Before the chair could
restore order Mr.. Worthing ton, of Ches-
telfeld, who minated Colonel Plat.
and Mr.. Bowden who was urging the
claims of Major Hartman, were seen to
exchange blows, and a moment later were
on the floor and rolling down the aislef
toward the stage Several persons tried
to part the beligerent persons. and others
seemed disposed 70 60 Oh into free fight.

AT length Mr.. Bowden and Mr.. Worth
ipgton were parted. and being firmly
held on both sides of the hall by their
respective friends, there seemed to be a
chance for resumption of business. But
the prospect of peace was dashed to the
ground by another speek Of war This
time two other deleg ates were seen in
close con tact, each plugging at the head
of the other. A general row now seemed
imminent, and the raps OF the chairman
and the numerous appeals for order were
drowned by che noise on the. floor. Some
