John Juniper juno assembled a convention only
to see E. turI, about and sit down upon himself.
There seems TO have been profound silence at

It cught not to take a great while to decide
whether Soath Carolina shall be permitted To
buIldozc the United States Government.
Governor Hampton is said to repc with scorn
the idea that be may run for Vice-Prc.ident on
ticket with Grant. Whore he encountered such an

General Grants friends displaying great indus
try in keeping him in the public mind. Letters and
interviews abound in the newspapers. One Of tho
former written by a companion Of tho Generals
from Amsterdam and published in Detroit, repre-
srntS him as saying, in reply 10 a remark tia when
he went back 30 his country he might he q caudi-
date for President: " II thought that would not
go back at ALL"
The news Of yesterday was calculated 10 show the
average voter what serious business this FalP5
election will be. A Southern State boldly dcfyng
tho authority Of the United Statcs; new party de-
uOncng stability aud order and a desperate schome
for an attack upon the rich for the benefit Of the
Door. Every one of these schemes has been cncouT-
aged by the Democratic party. The Republican
party has fought and Will tight them all.
The new Postmaster at New Orleans, vice Buffers
brother-in.law is received with evidences Of satiS-
faction by the Democrats Of that city. They Say he
is Radical Of the strctest sect, but il as ltte
obnoxious a. any member Of his party, and is be-
licycd to be capable and honest" A funny thing
about the brOthcr-In-aw is that he tUed hls best
to harmonic with the Administration having sent
this dispatch when the Southern policy was hrst unt
i'm force: "YOur policy Is q success, thfHk God "
This Id not atone for the conduct Of Butler, how
ever, and so the reform struck.
The Republicans of North Carolina have decided
to hold no State Convention this year. there is to
be only judicial ticket voted for. They Will use
their strength assist the independent candidates
who have been nominated against the Bourbon
Democratic candidates Tor the Legislature, and will
support the regular Democratic nominees for the Su-
prcmo Court because they present the liberal ce-
ment of the party. THIS seems 10 be wise step.
Ouu thing in ITS favor j. the uHeaslne>s t causes o
BOurbOns. They are dTeadWiy nervous abOUt any
movement which is likely % encourage boilers from
the Democratic ranks.
General Sam Cary is determined that the Demo-
cratic party shall not swallow the Nationals If he
can helpit. He says il ali we'll enough for the
Western Democrats TO declare now that they will
force their financial views into the party's next
Presidential platform, but he knows by experience
that they can't do it, Thc Eastern wing OF the
Democracy is controlled by the money power, and
he is sure it VII always be powerful enough to con-
troll the Western wing. Al of which is sound, 50
far rs DaSt experience Is guide: but what viii he
the result If there IS HO financial qUcs ION IN 1850

Spontaneous CpmbustlOn aud shall we not then be

way. and may kind Heaven grant it may 50 come
about.
