? zy' mt VCLUME IX.-NUMBER 1967 CHARLESTON WEDNESDAY MORNING, MAY 1, 1872. EIGHT DOLLARS A YEAR. HONEST OLD HORACE ! THE LIBERAL CAMP-FIRES DOTTING TUE WHOLE COUNTBT. The Democracy of tb? Great Empire State Endone tue Cincinnati Move? ment. The roar of ratification follows promptly upon the promulgation of the work of the Cin? cinnati Convention, and lrom Kentucky, Vir? ginia and all over New York, with echoes lrom yet more distant localities, come words of endorsement for the nominees of the Libe? ral party. At Petersburg, the largest Con servative meeting since the war was held Tuesday night to ratify th? nomination of Greeley and Brown. At Buffalo, the previous evening, a tremendous outpouring of citizens gave expression to the same sentiment. And so of a hundred different localities, North, South, Bast and West. But the Interest ot minor demonstrations ls dwarfed just now by the attitude of New York State. The action of the New York State Conven? tion of the Democratic party Is not yet fully appreciated the political moles who, bur? rowing along under the ground, are taking the utmost pains to keep themselves out of the light of day. The Rochester correspond entof the World admits that "the mass of delegates from everywhere were Greeley men by select ic J." We can add a little to thia Information. The president of the con? vention was Mr. Kinsella, the editor of the Brooklyn Eagle, wblch, as our readers hav* seen, bas been a Greeley paper from the moment of his nomination. Mr. Kinsella did not walt to hear lrom Mr. Belmont, nor from the would-be leader, the World, but took the lead himself. lu his paper of la'st week, Theodore Tllton said be would not be at all surprised If before the presidential campaign * was over Mr. Kinsella should gravitate Into the practical leadership of the Democratic party of the S'ate of New York. The predio tlon ls already fulfilled. The convention met last Wednesday, and Mr. Kinsella was made Its president. He had approved himself a leader, and bia proper position In the line was duly recognised. At the same time a rebuke was administered to the Belmont organ. Tone of the Speeches. In presenting the name of Thomas Kinsella for the chairmanship of the convention, Hon. Bamuel J. Tilden made an earnest speech as to the course of the Democracy and his own course In connection with them. He bedeved that the great Democratic party. In their coun? cils with one another at the Baltimore Con ventlon .and afterward, would go right and | ' unitedly, and where they went they would } cartv victory. Their piala course was to use 11 all rae means In their power to put down cen- | a trallsm and corruption-'-those twin evils wblch had threatened and which continued to [ threaten everything that was holy, everything t that was dear In our beloved land." Mr. Kinsella c said be knew he had been selected lor the post- ? tion beca- iso ne was among the first to advo- g catea union o? the liberal men of the country, r. a anion destined to restore honesty in the ad- J? ministration of the government against mill- 'c tary rings and military sway. Patriotic men t nave been overborne Ia their own political a organization, and having Invoked the assist- p ance of the Democracy in a good cause, they c should not invoke In vain. The party ia power D had taken a great part la history, but to secure c what bad been achieved, venality must rule at Washington, and one section of the country be given over to plunder, desolation and mili? tary force. His peroration was aa eloquent prediction of the success that awaited the j 1; party with their old principles and new allies. Th? Platform ' adopted reads as follows: 0 The Democratic party of the State of New t York, assembled la regular convention to * select delegates to a national convention to be Q held at Baltimore, to nominate candidates for c President and Vice-President, declare and a resolve: p That we recognise the ch an jes In the nature a and constitution of the ' government which t have taken place, aod without reopening the t questions ot the past, are ready now to co-op- g eraj? with those, whatever their previous 1 party affiliations, who favor limited aud loca - c lzed governments, who seek to restrain tue s exercise by Congress of aosolute aud general d powers; to prevent Ita entering on general t private legislation; to restrain the growth of s vast corporations, and to work a permanent l civil service reform. And be it inn her a Mssolvea\ That the recent declaralloo of poll- t tlcal principles by the Convention of Gael u- r natl is evidence ot the progress of pabilo opio- C ion toward sonn,' und wn olesomj views of ti government ; that we believe ail patrio ic ci ti t zens may unite upon that platform for the ti purpose of restoring the honest administr?t lon s of national affairs, and euforclog tne obliga- i tlons ol the constitution ; aud our delezate* lo t Baltimore afe Instructed to take the course t best calculated to secure the triumph of these t principles, and the eleciloa of any candidate a representing them who shall meet the ap- t proval ol the Democracy la National Conven- i tloa assembled. s The resolutions were adopted. 1 The Delegates* Of the delegates chosen to represent New York at the Baltimore convention, the well ( posted correspondent of the New York Sun * says: r The list comprises manv able mea, aod, as a t whole, ls a safe delegation. It reflects the average opinion of the State convention. It will act asainnltat Ballimore, and make the' Influence of New York felt at the right mo? ment and la the right way. The delegation will carefully watch the drift of the tide, and act accordingly. I think I am dose to the mark when I say that li the Liberal Re? publicans want the delegation to take the . initiative at Ballimore la favor of Dr. i Greeley, they mn-t swell the Liberal c movement to formidable dimensions. The 1 Democrats who have been selected to repre- ' sent this State ia the National Convention ' have oo Intent ion cf taking stock in a l&slng, } or even a doubt lui enterprise. If they are 1 going to be beaten, they prefer defeat under their own flag. I know the temper of the New York Democracy, as exhibited by its leaders bere, and I do not misjudge when I say that, ? while they are wilting to take Greeley and j Brown, li lt appears to them that in that way. , aod ID that way a'oue, they caa overthrow , Graat, they are wholly disinclined to try any < ~ doubtful experiments la ?batdlrectlou. There- j fore, let Dr. Greeley aud his irlends govern | themselves accordingly, aod make a satisfac- ? tory exhibit of their strength, If they waut , the help of the New York delegatloa at the , Democratic National Convention. , Organizing for the Canvass, I WASHINGTON, May 19. < Tba Greeley and Brown headquarters are established at the St. Marc Hotel, Washington, until the Congressional organization for the campaign ls projected. All communications maybe addressed.to John D. Defrees, at tne ! above place. Lists of names favorable to the cause are requested. Document, speeches, < ?c., will be furnished lrom these headquarters J to all parts of the country. | The Political Outlook. ] . The Brooklyn (N. Y.) Eagle, In commenting 1 on the recent meeting of the National Demo- J eratic committee In Nev York, says: t The members of ?he committee were unani? mously of oplnloa that they had no authority l for deciding or dlscasslng the question of the i propriety of calling a convention of repre- i seniaiives of their party. This duty ls en jomed upon them. Their power ls exhausted in deciding when and where the convention Bimi I be held. If it were otherwise, we should not bull wi ai auy satisfaction the determina tlon of the quesion ol whether or not the De? mocracy shall support the nominees of the Cincinnati Convention by twenty Ave or thirty Democratic representatives not selected tor SUCH a purpose. The settlement of the ques? tion 01' the duty of the Democracy at Ibis time, by a score of politicians, would seem too much liken job. aud would carry no weisin with it. The Giuclnnall mu vern ..ru ls strongest with the masses of tue people, and we desire mat the will of the Democracy shall be declared thrungli representatives elected in view of Hie cnange lu the political cit nation, brought about oy the revolt of all thut ls best and most liberal tn the Republican party, against venal, iv, Incompetency and centraliza? tion. We have entire confidence that un agreement can be efT-cted between the ina-sos cf both patties ou this platform, de? spite all the machinations of politicians, who can conceive of no higher purpose in pol?tica* organiza'lons than a struggle for the spoils of office. So far as the teuip-r ot the Nut.onal Democrat lc com m ft tee cun be inferred irom lu-? act ion, it ls not decidive either way. For some mouths past, lt appeared to be conceded that the convention should be held In a Western city, and St, Louis was believed to be the first caolce of the party leader?. Now, lu sel-ctlng the place lor bolting the convention, those memoers o? the committee wno favored the endorsement ul the Cincinnati nominees would natu? rally preter St. Louis, for the Liberal movement had its inception in that city, and the surroundings of a convention held lu Sf. Louis would be m favor ot Its assured success -and Its assured success will be lu the hands of the representatives ol the Democratic party. The decimation ot st. Louis as the place would have beeu accepted largely as settling tne que.?tloti, but the c mimi iee mid not the power, aud did not undertake to seule ir, und Ballimore was n-itned as the place for the assembUge o? the repr?sentai Ives of the party. There ls a warning In the very name of that city. Twelve years ago the Democratic party held the destiny o? tne country In Its hands. After faldug to agree on a c md Mate at Charleston, the Deimern lc Convention ad? journed to meet at Baltimore, lt was possible mere and men to have nominated a statesman for president, with a certainty of bis election. Devotion to the lnter<jsi, of party leaders stood In the way of this, and the division lu the ranks af the CouFervatlve party o? the country he? ralded an attempt to disrupt the Un>ou, and l?d to lour years ct fratricidal eli lie. The troubles jf tue republic can be brought to a close on the very spot on which they hud tbel: Drigln. At Baltimore the political revolution >egaa. lt eau be terminated there, but not by i ollnd devotion to party leaders, not by the tssumpiion that auy candidate endorsed us 'regular1' must ot necessity command the 'Otes ot the masses of tte party; but by cou? ll ila'ion, by a large-hearted appreciation ot the iecessltie8 ot the whole country, and a deter nlnailon to sink all division-* ol' tue past to escue lt from the perils which now surround bose principles of government whose over brow republicanism itself cannot survive. Wolle the place named for holding the con? tention may be accepted os squinting toward i dlsiloct Democratic nomination, the date tamed lor holding the convention ls almost lecislve against lt. If the Democracy intend to un a separate candidate he should be placed n the field as early as the middle of June .nd a month earlier than is now possible. The effect on the country of the nomination aade in Philadelphia on the 5th June wtil nave teen ascertained within a week or two lrom hat date at furthest. Nay, lt has been dis ounted already. Il ls weil knowa that Grunt an command tue nominal lon, and the po. Ul? ai adviser who doubts his determination to do o cannot see beyond his nose. A candidate lominated on the 9th of July could not fairly ie placed before the country before the l-t of lepiemoer. It ls impossible to organize and onducta presidential campaign wlihln the wo months intervening between taut date nd tbe day of election. The issue ls narrowed own between Grant and Greeley. It Is lm 'Osslble to change it. Tue people have nc* -pt.id it. Poillloianr. may hold yul?? Inridr, 1 nt the result ls inevitable now. The federal ? freeholders who will meet at Philadelphia mist obey the orders of their master at Wash- ' rigton. Tbe pressure of tue people who de? land a change in the admiui.-trailon will com- I iel the Democratic Convention to Insure lt, , nd there ts but one way to do it. The WorH, in tr> lng to force from Mr. GreeJ 1 ey the declaration thai he wi 1 run as a can lldate of the Cincinnati Convention, irre- j pectlve of ihe action of the Demcciais, Is , 'lind to public sentiment. It knows nothing f the feeling if the pirtyfor which lt pre- < ends to apeak. We hay now emphatically- ( nd we" believe we expre?* the feeling ol a ( Teat Conservative c^ustItuency-ihat Mr. keeley and his friends cannot, help the Demo- 1 laue party, if they were inclined to do so- ? nd the bair e makes no such demand of them | -by keeping the Cincinnati ticket bel ire the ?opie la the event ot the Democrats making 1 , distinct nominati m. lu such a contingency, f hoae who desire the success of a airalgtu i Icket would have a stronger Interest in ;eitlng Mr. Greeley out ol the contest than n keeping him In lt.

If the editor of the World will seek o ascenain Democratic sentiment ia the ? trongholdi of tbe Democracy, rai her than i a Mr. Belmont's parlors, tie will ascertain, , s we have, ilia', one-half the Democracy ot hese cities will voie for Mr. Greeley, and It ls tot possible to prevent them from doing so. keeley, as aa Independent candidate, wilt get , s<<re Democratic ih&u Republican votes In bis county.

New Torte speaks In advance of the National Convention. Her voice will be potential and lecloive.

[From the Lane.inter Ledger ] The duty of the whole South, Just at this lme, is to throw their Influence against a Democratic nomination. We think the south? ern people should nae as one man and make in earnest protest against any effort to defeat 3rant with a Democratic ticket. If the Northern Democracy appreciate the deplora jl? condition vt the .-outbern Stales, andar? sincere in their expressed sympathy for us, hey will lay aside, for the present at least, aersnnal preferences and labor upon the Lib? eral piatform, which in all essential particu ats is not objeciionable, to remedy existing ?vlls.

THE MOUTH OF HELL. GRAPHIC ACCOUNT OF THE RECENT ERUPTION OF TES tl riUS. Early Stages of the Disturbance-The Third Night-Destruction of Life Scenes Among the Neapolitans-The Last Alarm. The fellowing letter from the Hon. B. 0 Jell Duncan, of Newberry, now United States consul at Naples, giving bis impressions of the recent eruption at Vesuvius, will be read with interest: UNITED STATES CONSULATE, I NAPLES, April 28, 18.2. J TO THE EDITOR Ol? THE NEWS. I send you a paper with some account of the terribie eruption of Vesuvius, of which j ou will have heard so much before you re? ceive this. I would write you soma account ol lt, only I am too busy just now, ann know you will see notice enough of its horrors in the papers. Ic will taite rank as one ot the most violent eruptions tor centuries. Tbe damage done ls tremendous, and when we consider that the greatest violence did not last more than eighteen or twenty hours, we are horrified ac wUut would have oeen the de? struction had lt continued as is usual, two, three or four days. The scene during Friday and Friday nignt, 26th instant, was grand horrible beyond conception, much less de? scription. Think of a mountain over four thousand feet high, like one sold mass of lava-ot the Immense volumes ol smoke torced up In a direct line tb more than five times the height of the mountain, o? linmem-e red-hot clones, large enough to be distinctly visible lrom our wlndowtt, twelve and fifteen miles I dlsianr. thrown io the height or one to two thousand feet; ol a continuous roar like that of heavy thunder; and you may form a faint I idea of what was tne grandeur of the scene. Wubin the brief space of eighteen hours the lava rau further ihau at any eruption mis cen? tury, or than any probably since 1631. There has probably been no eruption more suoden or Violent in Its first outbreak, and never was the lava kuown to fl JW so rapidly. We could watch Its movement dlstlnci ly from our house The cause of the great loss of life was thai the mountain had been very brilliant the nlitbt of the 24th, thous h not al inn? ing, und this had attracted hundreds up the mountain in the expectation of seeing from nearer a similar show the nliiht of me 25 h. Towards 4 o'clock in Hie morning the terrible explosion tonk place, without a moment's warning. Eye-wliuesses say the whole side ot the cone seemed to open, and many were overwhelmed with the moss of stones and red hot lava, or scalded to death with (he boiling water thrown out. The number- ot the dea-t cannot yet be kuown. Many are missing who may probably yet return. I think not over thirty are knowH to be dead. I think no American has been lost, fora wonder, as there were many up the mountain early that night. B. 0. DUNCAN. A correspondent of the London Telegraph, writing from Naples on the 26th of April, says : Our volcanic neighbor baa not only been un? usually boisterous this time, but lt has excelled i'Self In treachery. The overwhelming ot Herculaneum, If net a myth, may have been sensational in Its day, but lu tragic horror lt must have fallen behind some of the heart reading scenes which we have boen obliged to witness during the past week. Before the storm there was a calm-an exquisite calm for which the destroyer decked himself in his most trauscendant beauty. For several nights before the new craters burst, the mountain wan so enchant! nu In Its robe of flame that. Na? ples could n<>t tnh.k ol going to bed. Hour alter hour HOI ll tne return of daylight one and all of us llo?ered la the streets, or by tbe shore of the bar, drinking in the glory of A VE8DVIAN TRANSFIGURATION'. mfrs mM\mt??h&?\i$T*mhM ness fell on the night of rae 23d, the great cone seemed suddenly to festoon Itself with wreaths o? fire. Fromlts sn intuit three orators were playing simultaneously. Continuous clouds of iumloloiis smoke ascended la the starlit sky. On their winns they bore solid masses ot scoritB, which, alter ribing to a con? siderable distance, either fell back Into the crater or wero thrown over the side of the cone imo me streams of lava winch were flowing down the mountain. The moon, as li Jealous of its terrestrial rival, shone with such ur.iliancy as only southern heavens are favor? ed with. The turee craters emulated it In the steadiness of their tllttmluaiion. From honr io hour the scene maintained an unchunitlag grandeur, until toward sunrise, when it effaced Itself almost as abruptly as lc hud appeared. Il was oast three o'clock before I could turn my baci on Vesuvius, and wend my way home? ward, thinking a Is tr us fully of the probable sequel. Next uighi the cone did not fulfil our eaiter antlcipailuns. Two of the turee craters failed to take pin lo the salamandrino spec? tacle, but tbe third belched and flashed and smoked wlih a trip e energy. The scoritc which lt ejected were pe culiarly Interesting and varied In shape. Some looked like stones of vast size; others were star-shaped, and others, as tiley ascended, exploded Into mil? lions of fiery fragments. Tne Discharge of lava, which on the ll -st night bad been hardly noticeable, now assumed a promlncut part In the drama. It was vomited forih with such energy as to carry it above the Hps of the cone and tnrow lc some di-tauce down me slope. There lt quickly divided Itself Into two streams, and made Its way in one direction toward the Ooservatory, and In another into tne old Atrlo del Cavallo, which, by aid of the reinforcement, resumed Its menuciog course toward Otiojano. THE THIRD NIGHT. On thc third night the snectacle had further diminished in bril.lance, but those who were not absorbed In spectacular enjoyment could discern Indications of increased volcanic en? ergy. The Immense tongues of flame, though they had lost some ol their dazzllug bright? ness, shot higher up than before. The lava and sconse were al JO carried to a greater height. The former was ejected In larger volume, which ultimately showed Its Increase la the accelerated flow of the lava-streams. The subterranean thunder, which early In the week bad made Itself heard but dimly, like the sound of heavy artillery at many mile?' distance, now grew more audible, and ap? peared to be approaching nearer the city. Ail through this l.l-futed night the premonitions of a catastrophe followed hard upon each other. Yet of what did happen no one could have the sitgl.i est warning. Ic was an incident un? precedented In the treacherous, capricious his? tory ot Vesuvius. Tue sympathetic sky was full of omens. Its cn sr al c earness had de? parted, und la place bf lt fleecy clouds were driving ncro.-s the heavens. From a thousand tinted effulgence they declined into dullness, then i ul o a heavy, threatening darkness. Moon and stars paled their lights ere they were veiled by the hazi which overspread the sky. But the surface of Ihe bay coin inned smooth und giassy, unruffled by even a summer breeze. As me shadows of smoke and flame cost upon lt from the mountain became more sombre, lt partook of their reflected gloom. Otherwise, lc was apparently unconscious of the Titanic struggle which was rending the bowels of the earth beneuth and around lt. As day was dawning, a fearful horror oc? curred on tbe side ot the inoumuiu next the city. Of late ye*rs, access io Veauvlis has been greatly facilitai ed by the short railway which skirts"ihe buy und connects Naples willi Castelamare, a town at the opposite corner. This laces tiie mountain througnout liswhol* distance, and la Its vicinity will be found most of Ute villages whose names always obtrude themselves during the progress ot an erup? tion. One of these, Resina, ls a favorite point for making the accent lrom. It ls nou far from Professor Palmleri's Observatory, and it enjoys tne more exciting distinction ol lying in the line of a great current of lava. Thousands ol visitors have ascended the hiil nightly from Resina, driving up as far as to t he ob-ervutorv, and then walking to the bed ot last year's lava. On Friday morning, many such excur? sion parties were assembled airectly under the cone. They had begun lo disperse with the first Indications of sunrise, but. hundreds still lingered on tb? spot. Without a pingie movement to warn them, the eaitn opened under loot, and the dead lava which they hau been treading upon as a curiosity turned again to molten tire. Those who were not engulfed In the chasm as lt. burst forth at? tempted to flee for their lives. Happily, tbe DESTRUCTION OF LIFE. ; fleet and sure of foot were many. Tbey reached safely; but woe to whoever 'fell by tbe way 1 Tbe earth they fell on waa already at furnace heat, and fresh wares of lava over? took them ere they could lise again. A few were miraculously delivered by the noble ef? forts on the part 'of i he strone nerved men in the company. Dragging them in haste toward the observatory, their deliverers placed them on the carriages which were walling there, aDd accommodation was provided for them at Resina. I have been told by a friend, who was at the very edge of the chasm when lt burst open, that the eflVot on the imagination waa as though the whole mountain hail begnn to move from ILS basis. As he fled he felt as If the mountain was io lowing him, and not until he bail recovered his senses at Resina could he convince himself that what he bad seen was only a partial eruption ot the crust which overlies the hidden fires of Vesuvius. An account which hus been furnished to a Neanolltau journal affirms that there were two simultaneous openings, and that flameo, burl? ing out from both, enveloped In a chele ol fire ali who were within reach. A carriage which happened to be inside this circle was burnt up In an instant, as if lt had been pplrited away. Shortly before the eruption a ladv was seen in lt. but of her nothing whatever has been heard ?.ince. Hie burna Inflicted were of a peculiar? ly painful character, even when they looked tl gnt. The pal leo ts, on reaching the hospitals, were lmmealately enveloped lu wool. Not? withstanding the care TV-ii tn which they have been dressed, and the skill with which they are nursed, tbey cannot move without endur? ing agony which compels them to scream. SCENES IK NAPLES. Throughout Friday consternation reigned In Naples. The first touch of peril had prepared all minds to expect the worst. Vesuvius gave, in various ways, sufficient occasion for in? creased alarm. The booming and the rumb? ling of the underground artillery Bounded aa clo-e as if lt were beneath our feet The flow ol lava had Increased, and two enormous streams were rolling toward the sea. as If they would sweep away halt a dozen villages in their course. Windows rattled, and the strong? est houses trembled to-their foundations. The smoke rising from the crater was now mingled with volumes of sulphurous vapor, and black? ened by the ashes lt carried in its furious ascent. There was far more danger In the scot lae than lo the lava, for they were]conflned to no cnannel. Scattering themselves wbere ever tne prevailing wluda carried them which was, huppllv, not In the direction of Naples-tney became firebrands for the des truciloo of houses, vineyards, forests, and every form of combustible property. On Friday night Naples was a degree lower in its descent toward abject, terror. The Bourse bad been closed all day. No one attempted to i hm kui anj thing but the awful noises under foot and the conflagration which was spread lng among the vidages h I ny at the mercy of the volcano. Poor San Sebastiano was nearly reduced to nahes, and Ita twelve hundred In? habitants bad to seek refuge nearer the coast, whither lava and the ashes were fast fol? lowing them. After nightfall, when the vol? canic and the artificial tires got mingled to? gether in a Plutonian landscape, lt was thought In Naples that all the towns bordering on ihn bay, Porticl. Resina, Torre del Ureco, and Torre del rAnnunclata, were in flames to? gether. The apprehension was fortunately overdrawn. Wuat deceived us was tne glare ot no lena than nine craters, all smoking sim? ultaneously. A BRIEF ALARM. This morning we had our last .and worst alarm, but lt was of short duration. A change of wind brought the clouds of smoke and ashes drifting across the city. Alter a few hours' anxious experience, In which we had presentiments orme fate of Pompeii, the wind mercifully cn op pea round to Its former direc? tion and the salamandrina foe passed on to seaward. While I have been writing a further Improvement has occurred. The sky ls now comparatively clear, for Vesuvius has begun to consume his own smoke-at least, he has rolled himself up in lt, and his mighty head is for the moment Invisible. Tne current ol lava has also checked Itself,- and there is a partial subsidence of the devil's tattoo which has been entne on below. OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. Aspects of tlie Canvass. [I-ROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] WASHINGTON, May 17. The first practical result of the dlacharge of ordnance by Mr. Dan Vuorhees in the House, the other day, was a coalition of the Liberal RepubllcauBand Democrats in the Connecticut Leg'alature by which Mr. Ferry, a Conserva? tive Republican and anil Grant advocate, was re-elected to the United Slates Senate. No better Indication could be given of the strength of the Cincinnati Keform movement, and no more significant illustration of the folly .of any ai tempt by Democrats of the ultra-hunker school to control the tide of reform which, commencing at Cincinnati, has rolled onward until the sentiment of the honest people of the whole country ins been aroused, and the reasoning, thinking, taxpaying portion of the great American community have evinced, In a most unmistakable manner, Unir deterrx'na ilou to rua uo longer lu the rut ol tue poli? ticians. Tue tact is, that the sentiment of the coun? try, which ts to determine the uext Presiden? tial election, was formed lu forty-eight hours aller the result of the Cincinnati Convention was announced to the people. Tne South struck the kev-note; the West is rapidly Jail? ing into line, amt wise Democratic politicians here regard the effort of Mr. Voorhees to in? augurate discord ia the manner he has done us the ravings of a malcontent, which are more likely to damage himself than auybody else. Prominent administration officials here regard the Cincinnati nosiness with Increasing fear for the consequences to Grant. Leading Northern Radicals express the opinion that New Tork bus gone by the board, and that it ls) folly to attempt to carry that State lor the silent Ulysses, while In Pennsylvania Came? ron has cooked Gram's fish effectually by his attempt to be his own successor In ibe Senate. In thin effort he has managed to make sucn divisions in ihe various Congreesloual districts that even Forney begias to despair ot the pros? pect of reconciling tue enmities and jealousies engendered ny the Cameron tactics. Another thing that mllliaies against peace for the Radicals m Pennsylvania Is the personal unpoptlarltv ol their guoernaional and other State caudldates, and Tom McClure on the other side to widen ihe breach. Altogether it looks bad for Grant In these two States. The administration senators who have hitherto carried Grant on their shoulders are heartily sick of him, and there Is no Joke In the an? nouncement that a strong effort will be made at Philadelphia to Induce Grant to stand aside, lu order that the Radical party may hedge with Blaine and Wilson. But Grant will never give way unless induced by something more potent than the mere argument of unavail? ability; and this tact seems to be well under? stood among the faithful, one thousand of whom have, lt is stated, agreed to put up one thousand doiUrs each to give him ipi present, lu exchange for ihe Philadelphia nomination. It may be safely asserted '.hat nothing short of such a reason will be likely to prevail with the great present-taker. It is almost impossible for people who have not observed the course cf the present admin? istration on all the most Important maners wlih which it has had to deal, to Imagine the widespread di-content that prevails even among leading politicians who 6tipport Grani s pretensions tor u second teim. His Kau Do? mingo project wu? so bald a speculation as to excite the private ridicule or the ^men who were most acilve In their efforts to log-roll the treaty through the Senate. The vacillating policy which has temporized with Spain and deluded the struggling Cuban patriots is another and very fruitful subject of disc ntent in Radical circles. The Quaker gun business on the frontier la a most aggravating and dis? astrous affair. Mr. Lo, having fooled ihe Peace Comralaalouers to the top of their bent at every point, and ihe hardy fi on tl er.-men who lie down at nigut with rifle at side tor the pro? tection of i heir scalps trom the pets of Mr. Vincent Colver, are not lu a mood to slue eplihaiaraiums In praise of ihe man whose lear of the Eu-Kiux bugbear in the couth has de? prived tne Western border ol me military assistance which alone can make their rude homes cafe at night from the tomahawk. Add to these the universal vote of the great Amer? ican nation of a want of statesmanship In the Alabama claims business, and wise men will I say that even Horace Greeley might h ve done I better. Bea Butler got foiled to-dav, moat unex? pectedly to himself. He begun yesterday by lotroduclog a r?solution providing for a recess of Coogress from the 29tn Instant until some late day In November next. To day he Called up bis resolution aod had the poorsatrsraction of seeing a substitute passed for ad J u urn m-nt on the 29th. The astute Ben han evidently been pat up to the Job of a raes-? In-order to prevent trie expiring of the Ku-Klux law until af. er tbe Presidential election, so as to give, the administration fud military control throughout the South, with a chance to coerce the tall election with baronets. The schema failed miserably, as lt should have done, and the House ls committed by a heavy majority to final adjournment on the 29th instant. N. . THE DISORDERS TB SP JUS. PARIS, May 18.
