pressions of its leading men-thlt party
has placed itself squarely upon the record
as the champion of the Six Chinese Com
panies, and the advocate and supporter ol
the Coolie traffic in the United States
The Gazette says: Our Chicago special
states the important fact that truce has
been made between the Granters and the
supporters of Blaine and Sherman with re
gard to the organizing of the Convention
by which it is agreed that Mr.. Cameron, in
presiding while the Convention elects @
Temporary President, shall recognize dele
gates as they individually or collectively
wish to vote, and shall not require that
they shall vote together as unit as the
majority of each State delegation shall die
tate, in those cases in which State Conyeu-
tions have prescribed this unity. II, as ouI
correspondent supp0ses, the result OF the
truce shall be the election OF an anti
Gralte as Temporary President, then We
suppose the representative rights of dele
gates will be allowed in all the proceedings
of organizing the Convention-the ap
pointnent of committees and the elec
tion of permanent President, and that the
question of the unit rule will not come uI
until the Committee on Rules shall report,
or possiblr not till it shall be raised by dis
senting delegates in the voting on the nom
ination.-The revival of business prosperity
in England, of which we had announce
ments last winter, does not turn out o be
permanent. Mr.. Jennings, the London
correspondent of the New York World, who
ought to write intelligently, says tna
everywhere he hears the same story of con
tinuall' declining trade and renewed dis
appointments. In Sheffield and Manches
ter there have been what proved mere
''spurts" of renewed activity, while he
doubts whether the trade of London ha'
ever been worse in this generation.
The Commercial says: The increase o
Republican votes in Ohio from 1860 to 1876
amounted to 1OS, ,SS9, being an average Of
q, 222 for each four years-or from one
Presidential election to another. The in
crease in the DEM cratic vote during the
same period WAS IL, 265, or 2S, 066 for eact
period of four years. In 1868 Grant re-
ceived $50 167 votes, which was less than
the average increase over the vote of Mr.
Lincoln in 1864, and in 1872 Grant received
2S1, S52 votes, only 1885 more than in 1868
when, compared with the vote of 1864, ard
allowing the average increase, his vote
sh uld have been over 305, 600. Now take
tie Democratic vote of 1868, which was
23S, 62l, add the average four years in
crease of 2S000 and to this add the
25,000 Republican votes actually cast fol
Greeley and it would have given him q
majority of 10000 over Grant Hayes car
red the state in 1876 b, only 1000 ma joi.
ity, while Grant carried it in 1872 by ovel
$1,000, but Hayes received 48,S46 more
votes in 1876 than Grant did in 1872, show
ing the regular increased Republican vote
of 27 900, and q return of nearly $4,000 o
the Liberal Republican votes that went of
to Greeley in 1872. That election of 1876
discloses another matter that the Grant
men should not lose sight OF. The Demo
cratic vote for Mr. Tilden was 323 1872, OF
an increase of 1851 over the vote fol
Greeley, and majority of 40,330 ovel
Grants vote of 1872.-There are in the
lists published this morning, of Ohio Re
publicans who will not vote for Grant il
he is nominated, over eighteen hundred
names.
The German Papers.
The Volksfreund says: The Caesars ir
the Republican party are Conkling, Cam
eron, Carpenter, Cresswell. Kellogg Childs
and Logan. The latter is the only one
where apt ALTERATION does not apply bul
he has done more than all the others.
The Volksblatt says: The Enquirer is
for Grant first, last and all the time. Il
naturally wants a Republican candidate
no may easily be defeated
