The Opposition 70 Grant.

WASHINGTON. May 3o-Mr. C. C. Fulton, o MEM
Der of the National Republican Committee, tele-
graphs over his signature TO his newspaper, the
Baltimore American, the following:
The opposition to Grant among merchants and
business and the best class of citizens s almost
universal. The local Blaine and Washburne clubs
are circulating among the delegates with badges,
and their headquarters are thronged. The National
Committee adjourned at Washington to meet at the
Grand Pacific. but Cameron disregarded the orders
of the committee and took rooms at the Palmer
House, where most of the Grant delegations
sembled. He has also appointed q different Commit
tee of Arrangements from that orde by the com
mittee all Grant men, who have charge Of the con-
vention hall, and would have given its use to the
friends of Grant for mass meeting on Monday, but
the propretors refused permit this TO be made
of IT, These arbitrary acts have caused great indig
nation among the committee, two-thirds Of whom are
opposed to Grant.
The first meeting Of the committee. on Monday,
will be very exciting, and possibly result in the
deposition of Cameron and the appointment Of q
new Chairman. This will lie DONE unless he pledges
his honor attempt to force the unit rule in the
selection of n temporary Chairman Some members
of the committee not willing to trust his word
in this matter, if he should give it, believing that he
will devise some means Of escaping from the duty.
