It Is understood that tbe administration
senators have at last reached a definite solu?

Grant must be withdrawn as a candidat? for
renomination by the Philadelphia Convention.
Senator Cameron was deputed to notify
President Grant of the action of the caucus.
It is now admitted on all hands that the
nomination of Greeley has utterly demoral?
izes" the Grant clique, wbo see in lt their

LATEST GOSSIP BY MAIL.
The Feeling In Washington on Wed?
? nesday.
A Washington telegram of Wednesday night
to the Baltimore Sun says :
It ls noticeable that among the members
from the cities the Greeley and Brown ticket
ls gaining strength, while the country mem?
bers, who are mostly non-com mi ital, admit
that the almost universal expression of opin?
ion in favor of Mr. Greeley in the South will
have great weight in the National Democratic
Convention. The statement telegraphed from
New fork, however, that Mr. Greeley intends
to withdraw If tant convention nominates
-another ticket, has given rise to no Inconsider?
able speculation, and ls construed by those
Democrats who opposed Greeley as an at?
tempt to dictate to Democratic delegates to
unite on the Cincinnati ticket, while others fa?
vorable to the latter say that it Is a fair notice
of Sfee Democratic Convention to meet the
-Conservatives in a fair way and harmonize all
the elements opposed to Grant The move
-ment to get the latter to withdraw as a candi
date has failed In its Inception. The adminls
trallon organ- here authoritatively announces
that the President sees no motive for taking
steh a step, and gives three very emphatic
reasons why he will not withdraw from the con
vention at Philadelphia, Accepting this deda
ration as official, Mr. Sumner, lt is understood,
will promptly declare tor the Cincinnati ticket
and advise the colored people to support it.
What the Tribune Think* or "the |l
Prospects.'*
[From the New York Tribune.]
The Journalists who at first resolved to .
treat the Cincinnati nominations as a Joke, J
lind their forced laughter, freezing in their |1
throats, axe looking around for avenues of es<
cape ?rom the disasters which confront them.
Very naturally, their first recourse ls to the | '
Bourbon or fossilized element of the Demo
eratic party, which, having rushed that party
repeatedly on the breakers foaming Just
. ahead, ls counted on to render the same ser- 11
vice once more. After demonstrating, **o their
own perfect satisfaction, that the Liberal
movement bas no other purpose, can have no ,
other result, than the restoration of the Dem-1 j
ocra ts to power, they insist that those very | ?
Democrats w'U deliberately, with malice afore?
thought, crush out the Liberals, and give a
fresh lease of power to our Conkllnge, Mor?
tons, and their satellites,
i It is barely possible tbat the Democrats will
play the suicidal part assigned them by their
implacable enemies; If we Judged only from
the recent past, we might almost pronounce
it probable. But the indications from every 1}
side are BO unanimous and overwhelming that
we are confident that no intelligent, dispas?
sionate observer would insure the nomination
Ot LS Bourbon. Democratic ticket for i ess than
ninety-five per cent, premium. . I
- This reliance of the Two-Term people being1
so manifestly a broken reed, lt ls whispered
that General Grant may be. induced io de
.cline, and that this, with the nomination at
Philadelphia of a personally unobjectionable
successor, will dissolve the Liberal organi?
zation,- and secure the withdrawal or ita (
ticket. We are unaware of any warrant I j
for this assumption. A Bourbon Demacra-1 (
tlc ticket might possibly evince strength
enough to shake If not shatter the Liberal r.
organization; not so a change of front at Phil- c
adelpbia. For the Liberal movement wars not %
-upon aman, but a system. It insists on one I
Presidential term as an Inflexible rule, not as a i
temporary expedient. It condemns nepotism ]
in the persons of Its apologists and justifier? t
as well as of Its chief exemplar. It demands i
a civil service reform which shall make the
m-;re tide-waiters and oi her humble servitors
of the government independent of party mu?
tations. It requires an amnesty for political
offences, now seven to eleven years bye-gone,
which shall be so complete as to leave no ex?
ceptions to be the subject of luture prayers 1
and struggles. For these and kindred reasons, j
we are morally certain that the Liberal Be- 3
publicans will maintain and extend their ;
organization, uphold their banner, and sup- 1
Sort their candidates to the end. unless the {
i emf ?era! s shall see flt to drive off the course t
-which they are not likely to do.
A Talk With Gov. B. Gran Brown.
[From the Cincinnati Commercial.]
Sitting quietly In his snug quarters, our
Thin-Edged Reporter on Saturday afternoon
was lamenting his III fortune. In missing the ] j
opportunity of seeing Gov. Gratz Brown, the
new candidate for vice-President, when he
saw a flash ot light Illuminate the window,
auM the next instant the reddest haired man
that, f-ince Jefferson, ever aspired to the Vice
Presidency. Tu is was Gratz Bru wu- a short,
well-knit figure, erect and quick In bearing
and manner, dressed In a weh titting and well
brushed black suit, hands and leet small and
tidily booted and gloved. His whiskers, worn
full, long and rather bushy, were three shades
redder than his hair, which was a so long and
curly at the ends. His head seemed large tor
bis body, probably due to the heavy red hair,
and his face appeared to be a very good one.
His features were sharp, by which ls meant
that his nose was sharp and his features thin.
His forehead was both high and broad, and
unquestionably denoted intellect. His eye, as
now remembered, was bright and of a gray
color and slightly sunken. His lace was a
floe one-a sensitive and cultivated face.
Quoth our reporter:
"Well, Guvernor, now that Ihe nominations
are over, what do you think ol the prospect."
"I have not," he' answered, '-any more
doubt of the result ol the approaching election
tban I have that the election day will dawn.
I am sure that the tioket nominal ed yesterday
will be elected.
"What do you think of the plat loria T*
"The piai form is wholly satwiactory to me,
and I do not see how any good citizen can ob?
ject to lt, whether he be in the North or South,
the East or West. There are factions which
may aflect to dislike lt. Many would have a
?tranger iree trade p ank, and many others,
equally patriot ic, would preler a straight pro?
tection theory. AH can not be sat'sheri. Tue
.aim should belo satisfy ?he greatest number."
"Then you mink the elements of success are
with you ?"
"YfP, I have been assured, and I believe,
that New York and Pennsylvania will go with
us, and I am very sure that Mr. Greeley will
Jfcjirrv the Soul h entire, and I believe Illinois
'and Indiana will give him a majority."
"How about Missouri ?"
"Well, slr, the State, that elected me BO hand?
somely as Governor, against the efforts of this
administrai lon, will, I am vain enough to be?
lieve, double, and even treblo the majority for
me for the Vice-Presidency. You need have no
lear of Missouri."
'.But how about the German rote, Gover?
nor ? I hear that the new ticket min be bolt?
ed by the Germans, especially in the North?
west. Does not Senator bchurz say so ?"
'.As regards the Germatfvote, I have no fear
of lt as a body. In Missouri it is a great and
good power, and I am sure., our ticket will re?
ceive IL As for Senator Schurz, be will sup
Sort the nominations with great earnestness,
[e preferred another ticket, but be can be re?
lied on. I talked with him last night, and am
satisfied with nls position. You will see where
he stands In a very short time."
"Do you intend to go into the canvass ac?
tively ? Do you Intend to take the stump ?"
''That cannot be determined yet. I presume
I shall take part in the canvass; I have done so
heretofore, and 1 shall try to do my part in the
approaching campaign."
Plain Talk from General Frank Blair.
(From the Cincinnati Commercial] .
Our faithful reporter encountered the de?
funct Seymour candidate lor Vice-Pr?sident,
and author of the Broadhead letter, on his
way to the office to get his sleeping-car ticket
to Washington. He only bad lime lo say:
"Hello, Senator, what do you tbink of the
nominations v
Senator Blair (with much cunning.) Oh.
they are well enough. They suit me as well
as any. They're very strong.
Reporter. But they say the Democrats will
ot support them.
Senator Blair (with some spirit and a trifle
of profanity.) Oh, bell ! People are fools to
talk that way. Why, Greeley will carry the
whole South. Any man must be a d-d fool to
say the ticket ls not acceptable to Democrats
-especially in the South. I know what I am
talking about. There is no danger of a Dem?
ocratic nomination. The Democratic party is
not an asylum ulled with Idiots. Don't tell me
the Democrats will not support Greeley. I've
got to go now. Pm going back to Washing,
ton to-night.
Saiiog which, Frank Blair disappeared with
a set of happy gentlemen irom tbe sunny
South, with tbelr carpet-bags In their bands.
Some ot John Mitchel's Reasons for
Supporting Greeley.]
[From the Irish Citizen.
The nomination is made for President and
Vice-Pr?sident, and, ou the whole, lt is a good
nomination, seeing tbat we cannot bare Dem?
ocrats pure and simple. Last week we ex?
pressed our preference for Horace Greeley
among all those likely to be presented lor
nomination at Cincinnati; and now that be ls
nominated we do earnestly exhort all oar
good Irish eil ieene to vote for him. It Is true
tbat Mr. Greeley bas some quite peculiar Ideas
af his own, in which, respect, as in all others,
he differs widely from Grant, who has not an
idea at al), nor even hall an Idea, of bis own.
Platform language ls often vague, and may
noe always really mean all that lt seems to
mean; but so far as we can understand tbe
language of this platform, and so iar as we
san interpret the public conduct of Mr. Gree?
ley, and the part he bas taken In public affairs,
(which is no small part,) lt does seem to us
tolerably clear tbat, in the absence of a straight
sut Democrat, Greeley must command the
rotes of Democratic citizen*, and especially
af foreign-born citizens. Everybody knows
that he never stained his fingers with tbe
Know-Nothing venom. He bas been-and
mis is not the first time we have acknowl?
edged lt to bis honor-one of tbe warmest
friends ol European immigrants, both Cer?
ium and Irish. He will receive, then,, a large
rote from these quarters, and the larger the
letter.

THE RELIGIOUS WORLD.
EPISCOPAL DIOCESAN CONVENTION.
\ Seconal Day's Proceedings.
The Diocesan Convention reassembled yes?
terday morning, at ten o'clock, pursuant to
adjournment. Morning prayer, was said by
the Beys. w. H. Campbell and E. C. Edgerton.
The anniversary.sermon before the Society for
the Advancement of Christian Religion In
South Carolina was preached by Bev. E. R.
Miles.
The convention was then called to order by
the Bishop, and the minutes ol yesterday were
read and approved.
On calling the names of members absent
yesterday, Rev. L. P. Guerry, of the clerical
deputies, and. Messrs. Wm. Whaley, J. A.
Young, W. W. Keitt, B. G. Trott, G. A. Tren
boJfti, A. J. Bacot, E. W. Edgerton, B. A. Prin?
gle, C. R. Holmes, W. C. Courtney and Edw.
Barnwell, of the lay deputies, answered to
their names.
The Bishop then read his annual address,
which Included an Interesting and exhaustive
report of bis visitations and official acts since
bis election, and details the condition of the
diocese, which is reported as on the whole
satisfactory and encouraging.
The convention then proceeded with the
election of the standing committee, Revs. J.
W. Motte and E. C. Edgerton being appointed
tellers of the vote of the clergy, and Messrs.
N. B. Mazy ck and H. S. Bali, tellers of the lay
vote. The balloting reeulted in the re-elec?
tion of the former standing committee In both
orders, as follows: Revs. J. H. Elliott, John
Johnson, C. C. Plnckney, A. T. Porter and Ur
8. Trapier, and Messrs. H. D. Lesesne, E. Mc
Crady, C. G. Memmlnger, W. A. Pringle and
W. T. Wragg.
The election of trustees ot the Diocesan
Seminary resulted in tke re-election of the
former board, with the Exception that the
Rev. J. D. MeCollough wa*aubstituted lor the
Rev. C. P. Gadsden, decease^
The finance committee repVed that they
had examined the statement ov^g treasurer
of the bishop's permanent fund;'W the sala?
ry of the late Bishop Davis had bli? pal(j m
lull, and the salary of the present bVop up
to the M Instant; that the balance \ the
hands of the treasurer, after the paymev 0f
those salaries, warranted the recommendafV
that one quarter's salary (one thousand doH,
lars) be paid .to the family ef the' late Bishop
Davis, and that the salary of the present
bishop be fixed at the rate of four thousand
dollars per annum, from the 1st of December
last, when the entire charge of the diocese de?
volved upon him. The report concludes as
follows :
The Income of the permanent fund being
Insufficient to provide for the Bupport oi the
episcopate, and recognizing the duty of every
member of the church to provide for her chief
pastor, the committee recommend an assess?
ment upon each parish In the diocese of a sum
equal to fifty cents for each communicant, not
meaning to exclude non-communicants from
the privilege of contributing to the support of
the episcopate. The committee would have it
urged upon them to supply the deficiencies
that occur from the Inability of needy com?
municants to respond to the assessment. That
the plan suggested at the last convention, of
appointing collectors lu each parish to collect
quarterly or semi-annually from the several
members of the parish be inaugurated as Boon
as practicable, and that these appointments be
made by the rectors or ministers Immediately
after the adjournment of this convention.
The following resolutions were adopted :
Resolved, That the salary ol the bishop of
this diocese shall be $4000. to take effect from
the first day of December last, (1671,) payable
quarterly.
Resolved, That an assessment for the sup?
port bf the bishop, and for the Increase of the
bishop's fund, be imposed upon each church
In the diocese, until otherwise deemed by this
convention to be inexpedient or unnecessary,
equivalent to fifty cents for each communi?
cant connected with Bald church, and that
such assessment be collected semi-annually,
in the manner that the rector and vestry ot
the respective churches of the diocese may
determine to be best calculated to carry out
the objects of the resolution, and that the
amounts when collected be promptly trans?
mitted by the rector or vestry to the treasurer
of the bishop's fund.
Resolved, That each minister in the diocese
be requested to bring the foregoing resolution
Lo the notice of the members of his congrega?
tion, and Impress upon them, as a matter of
duty, the necessity of prompt and uniform
payment of. the small Bum above assessed on
each communicant.
Rtsol ued, -That the sum of one th ou? and
dollars (one quarter's salary) be paid to the
widow ol the late Bishop Davis.
The finance committee also reported upon
the general condition of the finances ot the
diocese, and, after some debate, the subject
was referred back to the committee.
The committee on unfinished business made
a report which was also recommitted to the
commltte?, and the convention, after prayer
by the Bishop, adjourned until ten o'clock,
this morning.
Episcopal Missionary Society.
The sixty-second annual meeting of the
Protestant Episcopal Society for the advance?
ment of Christianity In the State of South
Carolina, was held In St. Stephen's Church
last evening, Bishop Howe presiding, and
Messrs. John Hanckel and H. P. Archer sec?
retaries. The annual report ol the trustees
was then read by the corresponding secretary,
and showed that the Income of the society
during the past year had been $4501 66, and
the appropriations $4950, Including an allow?
ance of $100 per quarter made to Rev. J.
Mercer Greene, city missionary In Charleston,
for his use in works of charity among the city
institutions. Reports were also received from
the following missionaries, showing generally
an encouraging condition ot affairs in their
respective charges: Rev. Messrs. A. H. Cor?
nish, Pendleton; B. B. Sams. Blackville; J.
V. Welsh, St. Stephen's; S. Melllcbamp,
Orangeburg and St. Matthew's ; W. H.
Hanckel, St. Stephen's Church, Charleston;
L. F. Guerry, Florence; P. F. stevens, St.
Stephen's; E. E. Bellinger, John's iBland, Ac,
and Rev J. Mercer Greene, Charleston.
The Bishop appointed the Rev. Ellson Ca?
pers to preach the next annual sermon before
the society, with the Rev. E. C. Edgerton as
alternate.
The election of officers waB then proceeded
wlih, and resulted as follows: Rev. C. C.
Plnckney, vice-president; H. P. Archer, cor?
responding secretary; John Hanckel, record?
ing secretary; Revs. A. T. Porter, R. S. Tra?
pier, E. Capers, T. F. Gadsden, J. H. Elliott,

son, and Messrs. Wm. C. Bee, C. G. Memmln?
ger, W., C. Courtney, A. H. Hayden, J. B.
Palmer, J. D. Aiken and J. B. Kershaw.
The rest of the evening was devoted to a
general discussion of the condition of the mis?
sionary work in the State, personal expe?
riences of the clergymen in their various
charges, and similar subjects. The Rev. Mr.
S'even? mentioned the inroads that had been
made In tbe colored membership of the Epis?
copal Church by the special attractions held
out by other denominations, and ottered the
following resolution, premising that as a mat?
ter of course the consent of the Bishop mus1
be obtained before even the consideration or
the subject be commenced:
Resolved, That thia society respectfully re?
quest i he Diocesan Convention to consider the
?>ra4tlcabllltr and utility of organizing an ad
unct convention for the colored people.
' Mr. Stevens said that as a matter of respect
and duty to the Bishop of tbe diocese a state?
ment of his views upon this subject should be
requested before the debate upon the resolu?
tions was begun, and Bishop Howe stated that
he would certainly not object to the discus?
sion of the subject and had no objection to
offer to the action proposed by the resolution.
He Bald that lt was a subject which had de?
manded and received his serious considera?
tion, and whlcb must at some time be Anally
considered by the church.
A debate ensued which was participated In
by Bev. Messrs. 8tevens, McCullough, Bellin?
ger and ethers, In which there was a full'and
free interchange of opinion upon this delicate
subject, and in the course of which a number
of Interesting personal experiences and al rik
lng illustrations ot the difficulties ol the posl
tlon were evolved. The discussion continued
until a late hour, and may probably be revived
In the convention to-day.
The Proposed Insurance League.
In accordance with tbe adjournment of the
preliminary meeting oo Thursday afternoon

noon, ut St. Philip's Church, to perfect tbe
proposed organization for securing the pay?

Nomination. ? ~ .
[FROM ODS OWN CORRESPONDENT. J ?
NKW YORK, May 8.
Tbe political situation shifts so rapidly that
Ula. difficult to keep up with lt. When the
Cincinnati nominations were announced, they
were received with growls of disappointment
by the Northern Democrats,. with execra?
tions-by the Free Trade Republicans, with
shrieks of laughter by the . partisans of
Grant, and with a whirlwind of enthusiasm
by Mr. Greeley's personal friends. But four
days have elasped, -and the situation lg
strangely altered. The Democracy are clearly
split In twain as to the advisability of adopt?
ing Greeley and Brown. The South comes up
with considerable unanimity to their support,
rae Irish, with their usual impulsiveness, have
committed themselves to the ticket, and a
panic has set in among the administrationist.
rhe wrathful free traders still bold out. The
germans refuse to be comforted, and a slgnlfl
:ant letter has appeared In Massachusetts
'rom a leading free trade Republican solicit
ng an expression of sentiment as to the eali?
ng of another National Convention "to try
igaln to extricate" the reformers from the al
srnatlve of supporting a bad ticket nominated
)y corruption and blunders."
The size and enthusiasm of the Cincinnati
fathering, and the extraordinary interest
vhich its nominations excited, baye undoubt.
idly frightened the administration leaders
fhey had consoled themselves with the
nought that there was not going to be much
if a shower after all. The deep feeling of dis?
atisfaction pervading the whole country,
vblob made Itself manifest through Clncinoa
I, surprised them. Just at this crisis comes
he exposure of the fearful blundering of the
,d ministration in the Alabama indirect claims
natter; an exposure perfectly damning to
irant. who will be held responsible for lt by
he opposition. These leaders cannot fall to
baerve that the chances of re-electing Grant,
o good a few days ago, are seriously impair
d. Their master ls not as available as he
ras; Indeed, his case ls almost hopeless.
Hence these rumors of caucuses of ad minis
ration leaders at Washington, of Boutwell's
esignatlon preparatory to a contest with
Irant for the Philadelphia nomination, of
.taine's hasty visits to this city, of Grant's
oleful observations to senators, and the cu*
lous leading articles in the New York Times,
Intlng at sacrifices that somebody ought to
lake, and mysterious dangers that beset the
epublican party, It cannot be doubted that
strong effort is being made, by a portion at
last of the Republican managers, to induce
rant to withdraw from the race. Under all
ils smoke there certainly ls fire.
The attitude of the Northern Democracy Is
ill obscured by doubt and hesitation. A
invass "rJLthe leading Democratic journals of
ie North shows a large proportion on me
nee, professing to be waiting for the action of
ie National Convention. They all appear to be
jslroua of running a straight ticket, If lt can
3 demonstrated that there Is a reasonable
lance ot electing ir. But the troublesome
Ubiern in in case of a Democratic nomination,
w^iot Greeley withdraw in favor ol the
P elphia candidate? His supporters
threat . |t( ttnd he himself gives color to the
suBplclo^at he ffU1 gQ Qyer ,n a certa|n con.
tlngency,. h| leading article In to-day's
Tribune. \ 6
The situ?t^ ^ curloualy complicated.
Nothing exactly ^ " h&g occurred before ,Q
our political hist* The Democracy do not
know what to do.weeley doea not know
certainly If he wlil ^ tnrough to the ?ad.
The Radicals are In u bt whether t0 drop
Grant or not, and the Et TraderB are in the
sulks, with no definite co"fl for ^ future
yet fixed in their mlndB. N^ let u8 BjjppoBe
several things, all within th? 1Dge 0? p0S8[.
Milty, and behold how singular, we ar<J an
likely to be placed. Suppose tbe i^aaelphla
Convention seizes the bull by tx norDPi
and nominates Greeley and ?-own ?
Where are we of the Democratic Pr8Ha.
sion then ? Suppose Philadelphia nomll?te8
Adams ? ' What Is to become of the Democrat-, i
journals and street-corner orators who bavt!
been, proclaiming him to be the man ol the
epoch lor President ? Suppose the Democratic
National Convention nominates Adams, what
is to become of the Democrats who have
already committed themselves to Greeley?
Who can tell under which banner we will be
marching two months hence ? I have heard
Radicals say they will vote for a Democrat If
it ls necessary lo do that to defeat Greeley. I
have heard Democrats say they would rather
vote tor the nominee of the Philadelphia Con?
vention (providing lt is not Grant) than
Greeley. I have heard Greeley men say,
angrily too, that they will, vote for Grant li
there ls the slightest prospect of the election
of a Democrat. ' '
We shall hear and eee, and possibly do,
many strange things before the ides of No.
vember. At the present writing, Horace
Greeley is still the centre of interest. Friends
who want to shake his hands and reporters
who want to pump him swarm around the
rrlbune door. Last Saturday he fled tt. Chap
paqua, and nearly a score of reporters went
after bim. A passenger train not being ready,
jome followed on the milk train. He dodged
them, and all day Sunday they were scouring
Chappaqua in their wild search. One keen
fellow tracted him to the woods, where he
he found him, with his coat off, try?
ing to chop down a tree. The reporter
whipped out his note book and began
to ask questions. The venerable farmer took
not the slightest notice of bim and went on
chopping. In the evening Mr. Greeley got
back to the city and took refuge at the house
of his friend, Alvin Johnson. He has re?
turned to bis regular work at the Tribune of?
fice-writing four or five hours a day and read?
ing all the exchanges carefully on tbe pleas?
ing topic of his nomination. A reporter in?
forms me that he sat in Mr. Greeley's office an
hour yesterday trying to get something out of
him, and that he could not get a word. The
candidate talked freely the day he was nomi?
nated, and one of the reporters distorted his
language, and got him into trouble with Sam?
uel Bowles, of the Springfield Republican,
who is supporting him. For this reason, doubi
leBS, Mr. Greeley is determined to hold his
tongue In the future.
The local press is still discussing the nomi?
nation with reeling. The Evening Post, rep?
resenting the free trade Republicans, ls ?!1
gall and wormwood. The Times ls milder 1?
its treatment of Mr. Greeley-showing evi?
dently that its hilarity bas turned to whole
d<
at
GK
some fear. T?ie World continuos to advocate
separate Democratic., action. The Herald
veered around a point la favor or Grant to?
day. The Sun is exuberant with its new sen?
sation. The Irish papers have all come out
for Greeley. They claim him as the grandson
of an Irishman. The Staats Zeitung, tho lead?
ing German paper, looks to the Reunion and
Reform .Convention, which was lately in ses?
sion in Cincinnati, and which. adj o urned over
until next month, to give the country a can?
didate that Germans can support. Frank; Les?
lie's paper is ont pictorially in favor of Gree?
ley, Matt Morgan's cartoon Xor this week
jeing very olever.. Everybody looks .forward
o Nast's next with eagerness and curiosity,
?e is expected to Burpass himself on the sub?
