lBY TEIgGRAru TO THE TRIBUSEl
UucA N Y Feb. 24.-TLe one feature OF inter
est in TO days rather dcsutory caucuslng has been
the evident difference Of opinion among the major
ity of the Convention concerning the extent TO
winch they will use their power. Some favored o
moderate of it, others what is called the heroic
use. The controversy has been quiet one. but still
the difference Of opinion has existed and has
been much discussed. Tho argument of the party
of moderation has been that If General Grant is 60
be nominated at all at Chicago it will be the first
ballot that if the small minority of anti -Grantmen
who are likely to be placed on the delegation see
that his nomination is inevitable, they will not at
tempt useless opposition. but Will vote with their
colleagues. II was urged that it was not worth
while. merely considering expsdiency, TO take ex-
treme action for the sake of securing small aivan
tage which might afterward come of itself. II
Grant not sure of nomination on the first bal
lot bis name would not go into the Convention at
all. and the minority might do as they pleased.
On the other hand. the men who believed in an
aggressive policy argued that the voice of New
York at Chicago should be unanimous, so as 10 be
emphatic.
Some Of the most ardent supporters Of General
Grant have expressed themselves as firmly opposed
to any action which would deprive the Congress-
Ional Districts Of any Of their rights and have said

The North German Gazette, in its editorial artlce-al-

the intention OF Russia to erect fortcaOns at Roano
Bialystoc aud Groduo, observes
It's scarcely possible that there exists in Russian
Government circles apprehension OF an attack by
Germany on Russia and il IL at the same time clear that

not be undertaken without an object Their
immediate purpose then Is probably to create
a belief among the Russian people that

Eiber France nor Russia has ever been attacked by
Germany and the colossal armaments of these two
states. which BY eompuision weigh upon the rest OF
Europe therefore only DC based upon an aggressive
policy.
The North German Gazette publishes an authoritative
letter replying to its article Russas ordcaons on
her Western frontier. The writer declares that the fact
OF State terrifying It's frontier does not neces-

n mere desire to guarantee It's own security.

THE CONVENTION AT UTICA EXPECTED 10 BIZ hAH-
MoNIoUs-MoDERATIoN TO CHARACTERIZE THE
COURSE OF THE MAJORITY.
The consultations among the leading dele
gates at Utica last evening resulted, 1t Is be-
lieyed in a determination to pursue such
policy in the Republican State Con-
yention to-day that the unity and harmony OF
the party will not be endangered. The unit
rule will not be insisted upon by the major
ity: but the delegates to Chicago VIII be
instructed by resolution to use all honoraole
efforts for the nomination of General Grant
1t is believed that Senator Blaine will be the tirst
choice of large number of delegates should
General Grants name be withdrawn. A con-
yention of German Republicans at Syracuse,
Yesterday adopted resolutions in opposition
to q third term.
