The Grand Greenbsck Mass Convention
which has been advertised for the last three or
four weeks in the interest of the party organ,
was held in Town Hall, Wednesday last. About
fifty persons were in attendance, all OF whom
listened most Of the time OF the meeting to a
rambling debate over what sort OF platform
should be adopted. 1t was easy to discern
that the moderate men were in the ascendency.
until Cook, OF Hartford, reached the platform
and proceeded to first visit the Independent
man. with mouthy flagsllation, and then to
pronounce a eulogy upon Brick Pomeroy and
the Pomeroy platform. As result Of the
days meeting this platform was adopted and
no means were devised for the reliof OF the
organ, except what the proprietors have here
tofore dieted upon-promses The party is
now fully at SEES, with Cook at the helm, aud
ali dissenters FROM Pomeroy's doctrines, must
stand from under.

We clip the above from the Decatur Repub-
lcan OF the 9Th instant. That ought to be the
last paper to indulge in taunts. Old Buff, by
dint OF begging, raised some seven hundred
dolla.s to aid IN the purchase OF the Republi-
can, and but few months after, he was nego-
tisnng with committee OF Democrats from
Indiana to go over there and make them
democratic paper, and would have done so but
for the reason that his begging disposition
manifested itself too soon and too strongly.
BY his opportunities he secured the appoint
ment OF his son to be Road Agent on the
Northwestern railway, which position he has
now held about eight years with prospect OF
holding on for some time to come He, in like
manner, secured place for another member
OF his family in the Chicago Post office at least
It was so blazoned abroad. He has, in like
manner, procured himself to be appointed
. Minister to Chatham" and has installed an
other member Of his family as . clerk in his
office. Thus it will be seen that the Bufing-
ON family is, at present, pretty we'll quartered
on the Government. He is one Of those poll
acians whose fealty to his party depends very
much on how much he can get in the way OF
'poils and the number OF places be can secure
'or himself and family.
