cheaper and better clothing; get more real

much of the vile humbug medicine that does
you only harm, and makes the proprietors

NOW FOR CINCINNATI.

The republican national convention has
done its work, and well has it been perform
ed for the benefit of the Democracy. No
better nomination could have been made for
us than that cf the Rev. James A. Garfield,
except Grant. While we feel that victory
is now an easy matter, the opportunity may
be lost by an njudicious nomination at Gin
cinnaii or by the inactivity of our party,
Democrats must not go upon the presump-
ton chat anybody can beat Garfield, nor that
even a strong candidate will be elected with
out the vote of every member of the party
There must lie no drones in the hive. The
nation has been too long in the hands Of the
corrupt republican rulers, and every man
should make it matter of personal interest
to himself to put an end to such adminislra.
tions. A return to good old Democratic
times is not only possible, but probable.
There is dissatisfaction ard contention in the
ranks of the opposition and they may he
easily overthrown if wise counsel and sound
judgment shall prevail at the coming Con
vention. But if the gathering at Cincinnati
shall be but repetition of the mob at Chi
cago and bitterness OF feeling shall be en-
gendered among the leaders, then may oui
golden opportunity be lost and disaster auc
defeat be the result next November. With
Hancock or Bayard as our standard bearer
such thing is not probable. With such :
nominee let the Democracy adopt the uni
rule at the polls and vote solidly for tht
candidate, and the enemy will be over
thrown,

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Wash ington,. D. c. June Sth 1850.

The Greenback Convention, called week
later than the Republican, seems likely to
get TO work before the other. Even the
Democratic Convention, called for the 22nd
may hope to find the Republicans still en-
gagged in an attempt to select candidate.
This sort of delay, VIII, lily without precedent
in the Radical party, will probably have
damaging effect on the party's prospects, in
asmuch as it shows, what has been alluded
to heretofore in this correspondence, that
the party is not now so much Republican
party as collection of Grant men and
Blaine men. Numberless voters who have
clung to what is known as Republicanism,
would if once convinced of this abandon
the organization. Besides numerous animosit
les will be created. Bitter speeches.like those
| Conkling is constantly making, have an eff
| feet no matter who may he nominated, which
will not expire with the Convention. On the
whole, Democrats have every reason to con.
gratulate themselves upon the display made
at Chicago, and also an example they will be
sure not to follow.
|
way is greatly increasing. | am not aware
of the estimates of the comparative strength
of the various gentlemen named for the can
ddacy, but for few days past there seems
to have been disposition among many to
IGN lre many or all the candidates first prom =
iuently mentioned.
1t is now generally believed that adjourn
ment will not take place upon the 10Th, the
day named in the House resolution. But
whether adjournment takes place on or af-
ter the above date, it is certain that the
measures pending in the House and passed
by the senate, will be pushed through. They
are the deputy Marshals bill, the Morgan
electoral count bill, and the election super
visors bill. The bills are now upon the
Spe ker's table, and await only the will
OF the majority to take up and pass them
This can be don at any time. The House
passed the Ute agreement yesterday, previ
ousy passed by the Senate. Everybody will
be gratiied at this action. All fears Of an
Indian war are now at an end and Secretary
Schurz no doubt feels as happy as he wei
can. The refusal of Congress to indorse BIZ
policy, as embodied in the Ute bill, woulc
have been the signal for an extensive wal
i fare, besides showing lack of confidence il
the ability and wisdom of Mr.. Schurzs man

Movements Of the Cubans .
CANADIAN CITIES THE SCENE OF SECRET
HOSTILE PREPARATIONS AGAINST
SPAIN.

A special dispatch from Quebec says: The
greatest excitement was created here when
it became known that discovery had been
made of Cuban filibusters, and that vessel
had been seized on her way down the river
from Montreal to Havana with a large
quantity of arms aud ammunition for the
Cuban insurgents, supposed to be hidden
away beneath her cargo. Count de Premio
Real, consul general in Csnada for Spain,
and Judge Chanveau, with Collector Of Gus
toms Dunscomb, were noticed all the after
noon upon the wharves, and about eight
O'Clock we're seen to hail a tug and put off
in'great haste for two ships which were towed
towards the sea from Montreal by the
Moselle The departing vessels were over
taken with difficulty just before reaching
the Isle of Orleans, when it was found that
both had deck loads-one of grain, the 9th
that much search was impossible howev-
er the Atalya was detained and two guar.
dians placed on board. The grain cargo
will be Thoroughly overhauled, when doubt
less the expected discovery of arms will be
made. Canada has no desire for more Ala
bama claims, and the official aid rendered
the Spanish consul general in this case is
in accord with a proclamation issued in
August, 1872, with special reference TO
Cuba, under the regime of Lord Dutferin.
Count de Premio Real has acted with
much ingenuity and diplomacy in this i'm
portant business. Already aware that an
insurgent leader named Castro and some of
his friends had come on to Montreal he
learned through the Dominion detective
agency that the Atalays had received on
board at that city 100000 cartridges and
quantity of fire arms for Cuba, aud was to
proceed to sea at once. Meanwhile, on
Sunday one of the insurgents, thinking to
iiyert from the Atalaya the attention of the
until she was safe at sea,
,ame here and called on the Count, pre-
'enting kilograms purporting to be from
we'll known Spanish loyalist in Cuba. aud
prosenting himself as secret emissary
ntrusted with the surveillance of Castro aud
,is party. The consul General ingeniously
discovered the fraud, and his vigilance will
doubtless be rewarded by the discovery Of
the contIaband articles ofwar.

Gen. Hancock.

| wish to mention some reasons why Gen.
candidate of his party:
lst. He is generally known and estee med
throughout the whole country. The differ
ent states sometimes have very good man
commend him for President. If every State
should set up their best man for President,
perhaps we would not get any at all.
2nd He is known to be Union man
and all would put confidence in him. He
would probably unite the different sections,
better than any other candidate; indeed he
seems to have no enemies anywhere.
3rd. DE has never sought the Office. There
are men in both parties who spend good
bit of money for their own election. The
people ought not to countenance this. Let
the people choose the men, and not the men
the office" Perhaps Mr.. Tilden is spoken
He is not as popular as he was four years
ago. 1t is doubtful if the South would give
him their vote at ALL They have no conf
dence in his success They prefer Union
General, and believe Hancock to be an hon.
est, good man, such as they want
This speaks well for the South, and con
tradcts some of the reports of leading radi-
Gals. l think the Republican party would
like to have Tillen nominated, thinking it
would be easy to beat him. 1t is wonder
he does not withdraw his name from the
list. One would think that with his wealth,
and being in poor health, he would prefer a
life of ease, trying to improve his health,
instead of doing the very thing likely to in
iure or destroy it. Probably he is led on by
his friends, or those he considers as such.
Remember, Gen. Hancock is not man to
ertend the term of office. If this party hone,
or expect to succeed, they must all unite in
the same candidate; they must be willing to
give up favorite, for the present, and give
their influence to the most available one. 1t
is to be hoped that this whole party will
strive for the same one; and that he will re-
ceive an overwhelming majority, so that
none can doubt that he is elected.

Shooting Affair at West Point.

A Newburgh,N n. Y, dispatch is as follows
John G. Thompson, Jr., of Ohio, son of the
Seargeant.at. arms OF the House of Represen-
tatives, at Washington was shot in the alb
domen Saturdsy,at Highland falls, by Beau
mont Buck of Texas Both were candidates
for admission to West Point, and attending
the preparatory school. Buck had been
made the victim of mild form of hazing,
and becoming enraged at some remarks fired
at Thompson. Buck surrendered himself
Thompsons condition is critical.
Buck declares that he has been unmerci-
fully hazed by the students of the prepara-
atory school. His father is president of Dali
las College, in Texas. The prisoners age is
twenty, wears a good badge won for oratory
in competition with students of several
Texas colleges. Thompson is about the
same age.
just before the shooting Thompson had
taken Buck to task for au alleged statement
that Buck had 'cleared out" the whole
school, Buck denied the statement. After
some wrauging, Buck backed away six feet
and remarking with oaths that he would
stand no more of this, fired. The ball passed
through Thompsons body.
Buck ran, pursued by the students, and
gave himself up. He told the justice that
the students had used him worse than mig
ger. Buck does not seem to realize his situa.
tion.

Greenbackrs IN Counsel.

CHICAGO, June 9.-The national green
back k-labor convention was called to order at
1890 O'Clock, by f. B. Devices, of Pennsyl-
vania, chairman of the national committee,
who asked Rev. Mr.. Ingalls,, of Des Moines,
to open the proceedings with prayer.
Mr.. ingalls, referred to the fact that prayer
had been offered in New York for the two
great national conventions at Chicago and
Cincinnati omitting any reference to the
great greenback convention, and said:
"We come to Thee, o Lord, on our own
hook" Applause, He asked heavenly
direction in the conventions proceedings.
His prayer was interrupted by applause and
cries of ''Hear. Hear" and Amen"
The chairman then read the call for the
convention aed then nominated Gilbert A.
De La Matyr, Of indianapolis, for temporary
president He was unanimously elected.
Charles II. Litchman, of Massachusetts,, and
Perry p Maxsom Of Kansas, were appointed
temporary secretaries.
About $50 delegates, representing all the
states of the Union, were present, and nearly
1000 spectators.
Chairman De La Matyr, on taking the
chair, explained the principles of the party,
and spoke of General Garfeld's reference in
congress to the Weaver resolution as the
last spawn of a dying faction, as false SIM
lie and an untrue statement
The convention then proceeded to the ap-
pointment of committees During the call of
states,all of which except Oregon respOnded,a
delegate from New York moved that paint
ing of the late Zach, Chandler, conspicuous
over the stage, be removed as obnoxious to
the feelings of the convention. The chair
man ruled that the motion was out of order,
but promised the removal of the obnoxious
portrait
Unanimous consent was given to the read
ing of memorial from the Woman's nation
al suffrage convention. Several women del
egates are present in the convention.
While waiting for reports of committees
the convention was addressed by Wallace
and Wright of Canada, on the currency
question:, anu ny beuis heai"0y ou 'no ie'
publican nominees. He thanked God that
even the republican convention had the
grace to reject imparialism in the candida
cy of Grant. He prophesied that Garfield |
in consequence of the weakness Of the re-
publican platform on the subject and his
record on the Chinese immigration bill,
would not receive one third OF the vote of
California, Nevada and Oregon, while Blaine
would have polled two-thrds of the votes
IF those states had he been nominated.
A strong anti-Chiuese resolution was Of
ferred and referred, when the convention
Adjourned until tomorrow morning. The
Pomeroy faction resolved to disbsnd and
merge itself into the regular organiza-
ton
