A TRIBUTE TO THE POWER OF INTELLECT.
From Je,cfsA Tyr<s


The nomination of Horace Greeley for Presi-
dent surprise alike 70 his friends and adyer-
saries. His warmes admirers did not believe In the
final OF their efforts. but neither they, the
friends Of the other candidates. whose names were
prominently before the Convention, OF the
enthusiasm which the name OF Horace Greeley, the
friend OF the oppressed the father of the Republican
party, the banner bearer OF progress, the
politician whose honesty OF motive was ever
inspiring that it baAed the calculations OF the most
experienced politician; 10 was spontaneous tribute TO
tine who from the lowest ranks OF the people,
made himself leader by the force Of intellect and the
honesty OF purpose, and whose election would undOubt
sentiments between the South and tho North. The
nomination OF Horace Greeley is tribute paid by the
representatives OF great people to the or intel
lect and refinement and though his manners may DC
and his craftsmanship border more the craft or
the American politician, yet he Is moro idon-
titled with the interests OF the people than
his rival, Is better acquainted with tho wants and
stands the beat of the popular heart and even his great
est opponents cannot deny his sngencss OF purpose to
advance the welfare OF the people. There can be no
question either that the principles with which the re
speaks well for the future of country that after so
short q time after the close OF the rebellion men Ike
PendetOn and other representatives of Southern Demo-
cTacy ndorse the nomination OF Horace Greeley TINS
sounds like practical restoration OF peace the political
of such adyeTsares has good effect uncon
dtona amnesty. OF his election there be doubt
II the leaders OF the Democratic party Will not again
throw away the opportunity OF bringing peace to their
sOrey tried BOnthern friends. The election OF Greeley
would secure them all the principles they contend for
while they hope to elect candidate or their
own Were they 20 nominate one, they would make the
election of the Philadelphia nominee certainly ana the
pie from the oppressive discipline of party rule will
not soon be offered again.

MIR. ATKINSON REPLIES TO MIR. COOPER.

JAMES W. COOPER. Esq.
SIR: I shall condescend to make short reply
TO yours OF the 9th u which reached me at Cincinnati
You persist in making the National Board OF Trade re-
sponsibe for my statements before the Committee on
Commerce. and you now base your allegation upon Mr..
Hamilton A. Hills letter This letter states only part
of what told you before. I invited by the Ex-
ecutiye Council address the Committee. but not as
member representative Of the Board, and as in
formed you before, very carefully Invested the Board
the Council, and every connected with IT, OF all re-
sponsbity for my sayings doings before began my
address II you still persist in attempting 10 make the
Board responsible shall take further notice Of the
matter, In which course am very the members Of
the Board will join me.
lam now prepared TO admit that you have convicted
OF great bunder and shall hasten to correct IT,
since you have very kindly furnished with the data
made hasy calculation Of the saving which might be
made by the free importation Of steel barges
for use between st. Louis and Cairo and
other points the Mississippi and its tribu-
taries and New-orleans. In my letter to you
estimated the saving grain at per annum OF
which fourtenths would pension all your employees en-
gagged In steel making at 900 year You now give me an
estimate that these 500 barges would carry SOOoOo
bushels and that export only 81 100000 from all ports
What OF that l proposed to confne the use OF
these barges to the carrying of grain for export only NO
but fool would do that II they carried gram ior
export cheap they would also carry that intended for
domestic consumption as cheap, and am inclined ~
accept your estimate that the whole 500 would be re-
auired for grain only and that made great bunder In
not making estimate Of the number needed ior o'her
heavy freight
How many more do you think ought to addt surely
0oOOooo bushels OF gram year Ia but oderA'o es
