"A bold attempt has been made to blacken
the character of Hon. M. G. Kerr, Speaker
of the House of Representatives Charges
have been made against him that he accept
ed a bride of $3.50 to procure the appoint
mcnt in 1876 of one Augustus 2. Greene us
second lieutenant in the u S. army.
1t is alleged by Lawrence Harvey, for
merly an assistant doolkeeper of the House
Of Representatives that Greene gave him
$400 to which he added the remainder him
self and gave it TO Mr.. Kerr, who, in consitl-
Grafton thereof, procured Greene the appoint
ment he sought. Harvey was cross exam
incd and made contradictory statements. He
could not even tell the number of the house
ington while door-kecper of the House of
Representatives.
The examination was made by the Com
mittcc on Expenditures in the War Depart
ment. Upon the conclusion of IIarney's
testimony Speaker Kerr asked TO be sworn.
This having been done he said:
II only want to remark to-day that deny
every material statement made by this wit
ness affecting my personal honor and official
integrity. That is all. II were in sufficient
health | would make statement of the cir
cumstances which led to this investigation
in connection with the anonymous letter
received but | do not feel able to do so to-
day. will further say that consciously never
knew this witness in my life, but | do not
say, or wish to be understood as saying, that
that he did not introduce Greene to me.
do not know six doorkecprs about this
House now, though they are supposed to be
my political friends. | never consciously
exchanged one minutes conversation between
Heaven and earth with that person. / never
knew him and hc was never at my room as
he has stated, and of course never received
| any money from him, nor from any one else"
Harney's story is generally discredited in
Washington, even by Republicans, not only
from the pure character of Mr.. Kerr but
from the manner Of the witness. The theo,
ry of Mr.. Kcrl's friends is that this attempt
| to blacken his character is in pursuance Of q
plot concocted by certain New York polili-
clans for the purpose of weakening the force
of the investigations which have been in pro-
gress.
MIR. Kerr will insist upon full and free
| investigation. Ifthe object is to divert atten-
ton from the exposure of the misdecds of
Belknap, Babcock and Grant, it will fail
AT all events no lapse of virtue on the part
of Democrats will afford any excuse for the
shameful manner in which high Republican
officials have plundered the government and

THE ST. LOUIS NoMINArIoN.

Among the many reasons why the Democratic
party may look forward TO success in this cam
paigu is the feeling Of confidence and dctermi
nation everywhere manifested, both by the press
and by individuals. The usual show of opposi
ton to this or that nomination is heard, as
matter of course; but no member of the Demo.
cratic party has been found willing TO put him.
self on record rs declaring tina he would not sup
port the nominee Of the st. Louis Convention.
1t may be assumed as q fixed fact, that every
true Democrat will vote the Democratic ticket
in the coming election. Local opposition, from
personal and other reasons, will have no weight
in the Convention, because after the nomina.
ton is made, all such opposition will cease
Even in Ohio, where bitter fight has been car.
red on between two wings of the party, the
friends of Senator Thurman are pledged to the
support of Gov. Allen, should he be the nomi-
nee at st. Louis. The question for the Conyen.
ton will not be therefore: "Who can poll the
full party vote" it will be: "Who can draw
the largest vote from the oppositionT' The adj
dress Of the Democratic National Executive
Committee invites those Republicans who arc
dissatisfied with their own party, to join the
Democratic party In electing President. The
issue will be Administrative Reform; and it
will become the duty of the Convention, while
nominating true Democrat for President, TO
see to it that he is the man who can draw the
largest support from the enemy, on that issue
That the St. Louis Convention will do its whole
duty in this respect, and that its action will be
endorsed ny the party, In every sectlon, without
question or bubble, is an absolute certainty
These expressions of confidence | base on tic
opinion of leading Democrats, with whom l
have talked, from every section Of the country.
In reference TO local opposition, it should be
borne in mind that the iaIk against Governor
Tilden, in New York, comes from the same men
who have opposed him steadily for the past five
years. When he was nominated for Governor,
they predicted his defeat by from 10000 to Sc, :
600 votes, and he was elected by over 50, 900 ma.
jority. The same men asserted, before the Utica
Convention met, that Governor Tilden would
not be the choice of that convention. lie was
its choice by unanimous vote. 1t is not
strange that few Disconnected politicians, and
personal enemies, have Deen unable to effect
anything against the man who has driven cor
rupt men from Office, without regard to party,
and who has saved the people Of his State nearly
$4,000, 900 in taxes in less than fifteen months.
With such record as that, no opposition could
defeat Governor Tildcn in New York, and no
Republican can be named who can stand against
