result in no increased use of credits. 1t wouid
lessen by not more than one-fortieth the
amount of currency used at the chief COM
mercial centers in determining prices. The
real objection, which the Senator inexcusaDiy
misses. is that silver is naturally ana mainly
used in r, tail transactions by the poorer ana
laboring classes, and its disuse would therefore
affect prices out of all proportion to It's share
in the general work of exchange. 1t Is un-
necessary to add that if he attributes increase
of crimes or suicides, increase OF failures or
decline f prices, to demonetization OF silver In
this country. he only brings ridicule upon the
cause he wishes to aid.

general and paramount welfare of the people
of these United States. If they are honest,
they will leave all old contracts to be settled
strictly according to their terms, and provide
annie means for such settlement. AS to the
future, if the general welfare will be promoted
by adopting the single standard OF England,
they should prefer that course. Ii 1t VIII DO

have vet to be heard from. it seems almost
certain that Hayes and Wheeler are to he the
officers inaugurated next March. Mr. Blaine
has made a magnificent fight and has
developed qualities of leadership OF which
no other candidate has shown sign. Con-
yinced that he had been most unjnsty
attacked, The TRIBUNE supported him.
and the extraordinary scenes when his name
was mentioned at Cincinnati showed that hc
controlled not merely the support but the sym
pathies of a very large section of the Repuoli-
can party. But his most ardent friends must
now admit, first that he had bitter enemies
in his own party; and secondly, that his cam
paign, il he had been nominated, would
of necessity be defensive one. There
are no such objections to Messrs. Hayes
and Wheeler. They represent cOnciliation
and cordiality within the party. They
will unite all the hitherto jarrlng FAC
tions, and enable even Bristow men ana
Conkling men to march to the polls together.
The Convention moreover has shown great sa-
gacity in considering tho question OF locality.
The nomination of Gov. Hayes secures the
largest of the October States, whose vote must
influence all the rest in November, and the
selection of Mr.. Wheeler does all that is pos
sible to appropriate the vote of New-Y York.
The Democrats will find it almost impossible to
make more popular ticket; we shall be glad
to see them try to make better one.

LOCAL CELEBRATIONS or THE FOURTH

LOCAL CELEBRATIONS or TIE FOURTH.
The preparations for the observance Of the
Fourth of July in this city are nearly COM
pleted and partially announced. We are to
have an Grafton, with singing, illumnations,
and professions. The Celebration Committee
have issued nm address which we trust will he
responded to-, asking for the voluntary co0pe-
ration of the citizens, who are invited on the
great day to assemble at some convenient hour
in their churches and to add to the other ex-
ercises those of thanksgiving and praise. We
are happy to say that the national interest in
the Philadelphia exercises, patriotically enthu-
siastic as it is, will not prevent minor celebra-
tons in different parts of the country. Of the
population of the United States only a small
fraction can be present upon the Fourth of
July in Philadelphia, however large the as
semblage in that city. Those who are compelled
to keep ut home should have their good time
also. Indeed, we should think the rare occa-
sion very inadequately improved if every in
habitant Of the Republic were not reminded
by some incident or token, however small, of
the completion of a century 80 full Of interest
to every child of the Republic.
There are certain methods Of public reJoic-
ing to which we have, through long Gust IN,
become attached, and of which we shall have
enough and to spare upon the Fou th-iire-
works, bell ringing, professions and oratory.
We hope that our friends in the rural dis
tricts though they may be able to do nothing
very pompous or noisy upon the occasion, and
may be cut off by circumstances from gorgeous
pageant or imposing spectacle, will still be
content to have quiet merry, thoughtful
Fourth of July. Special care should be taken
of the children. This hundredth Fourth will
be something for them to remember and talk of
long after we oldsters have departed. We are
" have historical celebration in

sOnR OF THE FORK or THE CONTENTION

SONR OF THE FORK or THE CONTENTION.
The Convention did some valuable work
besides presenting the country with good can
didates In the first place it broke the official
machine. That cOntrivance was wound up and
set going with vigor never known before,
and it completely failed, making little racket
at the beginning of the proceedings, and then
running down with great rapidity. Hereafter
voters in private life will probably express
their preferences with q freedom which has not
always been permitted them.
In the next place the Convention purged the
party of some noxious material which we have
been trying for several years TO induce 1T to
cast out. II refused to admit Boss Shepherd,
even when ho came in the company OF
Frederick Douglass. 1t refused to admit
Spencer, even when the leading man OF
his delegation had just been authenticated,
so to speak, by appointment to
Federal office. 1t snubbcd Chief-Justice Poker
Jack Mcclure. 1t treated George William
Curtis with marked cordiality. 1t kept in the
background the Keloggs, Packards, and other
persons of that class who have done so much
discredt to Republican Conventions in other
years.
Altogether it has done well. The Republi
can party learns by tribulation almost as much
as the Democracy forgets in prosperity.
New-York tribune., 1876-06-17

COnstantinople is again the scene of terri
BILE tragedy. A Circassian officer, OF the rank
of Adjutant-Major, who was assigned TO duty
at Baglad and imprisoned for his refusal to
leave ConstantinOple, was released on Thurs
day, on his promise of obedience TO orders.
The same evening he proceeded to the gesi-
dence of Midhat Pasha, the Grand Nizier, who
was in council with his Ministers, was admitted
to the council chamber by mistake, drew Il re-
volver and instantly shot Hussen Ayni Pasha,
Minister of War. In endeavOring to escape
arrest, he further shot and killed Reshid Pasha,
Minister of Foreign Affairs, and seriously
wounded the Minister of the Marine Depart
ment. A servant and soldier were also killed,
and another servant wounded. There is not
the least probability that this tragic affair has
any political significance, further than the loss
of two intelligent and experienced members Of
the Government. Hussein Avni Pasha was the
recognized leader of what is called Young
Turkey" the party which demands avigorous,
Independent. and patriotic policy, and he
seemed destined to play an important part in
the future history of his country. Reshid
Pasha, also, was a man whose loss will be
severely felt at this juncture. The fatalistic
Orentals will be apt to draw an evil horoscope
for Sultan Murad's reign, in view of the blood
shed which already stains his first month of
power, although not drop of it may cling to
his own hands

The extradition question is becoming graver.
Our Government has not yet taken cognlzance
of Winslows release, but it will doubtless do
so promptly. Meantime the London press is
more or less in our favor. The Times says that
" arguments have been advanced on our (the
"British) side which we cannot but hold to be
"quite untenable.' The Daily Ne,rs holds that
Mr.. Fish occupies "the more tenablc ground
"in law and policy" The Stdndard-the Con-
servative Organ-is Ominously silent. Brcnts
case is also under review, but one OF those
minor officials who really control their re-
spectve departments, intimates that he will be
released. As the whole subject is to come be-
fore Parliament, we shall soon have the con-
duct of Mr.. Disracli fully explained. Having
the stronger side, our Government can afford
to act calmly and deliberately.

New-York tribune., 1876-06-17

Suicide following murder is not specially un-
common, but it Is not often complicated with
lynching as in the strange case reported from
Clermont Mills, Md. The story is that the
murderer, being taken to the woods by a
crowd, was hung for little while, and then
cut down before he was strangled; and that
afterward he hung himself. This looks like
tale invented to cover the actual facts of
lynching performance but even if it be true,
the crowd of lynchers can and should be held
for assisting at suicide; practically, at a
murder.

The stirring events of yesterday give our dis
patches from Cincinnati something of the dash
and brilliancy of the Especial correspondent" 4"
in war times. The whole is vividly told, and
our readers can trace the brief, evcntful his
tory for themselves. The third vote was the
first that seemed ominous for Mr.. Blaine
for on that Pennsylvania failed to give him
the hoped-for second choice The fifth ballot
first showed the Hayes combination, but in
this vote Mr.. Blaine got his highest figures
The sixth exhibited more clearly the direction
of events, but the last ballot was still sur
prise to the Convention itself.

The outlook at st. Louis, after careful es-
innate of the preferences of delegates, gives
Gov. Tlden 1872 of the 369 votes. He will
need half as many more to secure the nomina-
ton but there are 4S votes classed as FUN
"known," and 35 besides of delegates not yet
elected, and it is rather curious circumstance
that these undetermined votes If cast for
Gov. Tilden would just give him two-thirds
majority in the Convention.
New-York tribune., 1876-06-17

The Centennial Loan Art Exhibition, by
which the public is to be enabled to see the
best pictures owned by New-Y York's citizens, is
an assured success. More than 500 OF the
finest paintings in this city will be lent by
their owners to grace the walls of the Acad-
emy of Design and the Metropolitan Museum
of Art; and the Belmont Gallery will also be
opened to the public. A million dollars would
scarcely cover the value of these pictures,
which are catalogued in another column. The
opportunity thus given for seeing the best
works Of art may not recur in lifetime.
