Summary of Last Nights Dispatches



Immediately after the adjournment OF the
Cincinnati convention yesterday the committee
on credentials met and organized by the cleo
ton OF ]. NJ. b. Young, OF Georgia, as chairman,
and A. Waltner, OF Oregon, as secretary. A
delegation from Arkansas objected to Smith NJ
much as his own seat was contested. The
chairman ruled the objection out of order, as
there was no notice OF contest before the COM
m1ttee.
THE NEW YORK CONTEST.
The committee then adjourned to O'Clock In

The Campaign Opened.

Our esteemed Democratic contemporaries,
considering that they have had only one day
to meet an exceedingly unexpected nomina-
ton, have improved their time to the utmost.
1t is evident that the action of the Chicago
Convention suits them exactly If they could
have had the selection of the man most easy
to defeat, they would have chosen James A.
Garfield. At least this is the natural infer
ence to be drawn from the comments Of the
press. There has not been as yet time to Sc
Cure full returns of all the villainy for which
Garfield is responsible, but when all the coun-
ties are heard from it will require a campaign
biography of several volumes and will be more
thrilling than the exploits of "Sixteen-String
Jack" 1t is proper for the Republicans to
understand some of the charges they will have
so meet.
In the first place there is no longer any
doubt that it was Garfield who penetrated the
forest at Chatauqua, and sawed Courtney IS
boat in two the night before the proposed race
with Hanlan. For this fendish deed he was
paid eight thousand dollars by the proprietor
of a rival bitters factory.
Again it was Garfield who stole Charlie
Ross, having been hired for the purpose by
''Shepherd'' Cowley, who needed one extra
boy for his home circle.
AS for the Mary Stannard murder, while
the proof against Garfield is not sufficient to
secure a verdict the detectives and scientific
experts are on his track and important devel-
opments are daily expected And in regard to
the Avon murders, his only chance is in PROV
ing an alibi The fact that no evidence has
been found against anybody else is considered
very damaging to him.
AS the campaign wakes warm, these light
offences will be lost sight of in the flood of

BOsToN Advertiser: The Greenbackers,
sensible of the obligations they are under to
the Democrats, have gone through the form
of nominating ticket which will not cause
the least embarrassment to their natural
allies. The nomination of General Weaver
must have been made for the purpose of
killing off the Greenback party, if there was
any purpose at all. At any rate, that will
be the effect of the ticket. The convention
was a roaring farce from beginning to end
The frantic confusion and wrangling among
men were never before heard of; the antics
of that amazing compound of recklessness
and vanity, Denis Kearney, down to the for
NAL balloting even with half votes in COLI
vention that allowed unrepresented States
to be represented by anybody who would
take credentials, all partook of the mock
heroic clap-trap of which Solon Chase's
steers and cOwhide boots are the best en-
blems

GEN. GARFIELD as chief of staff TO Gen
eral Rosecrans is thus described by Edmund
Kirke in his war book, 'DOwn in Tennes-
see," aritten in 1868:
In corner by the window, seated at small
pine desk-a sort of packing-box, perched ON a
long-legged stool, = and divided into pigeon
holes, with turn-down lid-was tall, deep
chested, sinewy-built man with regular, mas
sive features, full, clear blue eye, slightly
tinged with gray, and high broad forehead,
rising into ridge over the eyes, as if it had
been thrown up by plow. There was some
thing singularly engaging in his open, express
sive face, and his whole appearance indicated,
as the phrase goes,-"great reserve power. -
His uniform, though cleanly brushed and sit
ting easily upon him. had a sort of democratic
air, and everything about him seemed to de-
note that he was "a man of the people" A
rusty slouched hat, large enough to have fitted
Daniel Webster, lay on the desk before him,
but glance at that was not needed to con-
vince me that his head held more than the
common share of brains. Though he is yet
young-not 33-the reader has heard of him,
and if he lives he will make his name long re-
membered in our history.

THE Bridgeport Standard thinks one of the
best possible evidences of the excellent char
acter and strength of the Republican nation
al ticket, is the fact that while the most cap
tious of Republican ''reformers" is forced
to admit its respectability and that he will
vote for it, the Democratic press generally
find it very ''weak" and "poor" and "unsat'
isfactory." Had the ticket been good one
in their estimation and one satisfactory te

could support.

greater enormities. Tiden will shine as an
angel of light beside the blackness Of darkness
of Garfelds villainy and corruption.
1t will be proven that as a member Of the
appropriations committee of the House he
never allowed an appropriation to 90 through
without at first obtaiging some 20 per cent of 1t
for his own use. In this way he has acoumu-
lated some fifty millions of dollars ready cash,
by the use of which he has corrupted the
whole Western Reserve and spread broadcast
the pernicious doctrines of the United Breth-
rem, the religious sect to which he belongs 1t
will also be found that he runs a private faro
bank where he regularly robs the unsophisti-
Gated congressman from the West and South.
He is also believed to be interested In steam
heating company, and shareholder in u horse
railroad.

WHEN he was Republican candidate for
