NEW YORK, Jane 4.--The Greeley
ratification meeting was immense. _ A
letter from Montgomery Blair, speaking
of Radicalism, m\y% it was not until at?
tacked by Sumner, Sohurz and Trum?
bull, was it brought to bay. A letter
from Senator Trumbull congratulates
the Liberals fox their deliverance from
party trammels and for giving the peo?
ple the opportunity to elect Horace
Greeley President of a pacific govern?
ment and obliberate old animosities.
General Imboden says he hastens to
assure the meeting tbat the Southern
men unite in support of the polioy and
nominees of the Cincinnati Convention;
the unanimity in the South is without
parallel; the opposition in Virginia is too
feeble to provoke a campaign. The
D?mocratie Convention in Los Angelos
bas declared for Greeley and Serrano's
olemeuoy to surrendering insurgents.
Mrs. Jane Farley, iu a fit of jealous
despondency, put her throat.

Probabilities-The lowest barometer
over New York will move Eastward over
New England, followed by rising baro?
meter, clear and clearing weather and
brisk North-westerly winds over the
Middle States to-night, and extend over
New England on Wednesday morning.
Clear weather will continue very gener?
ally from the Gulf and South Atlantic
coasts to the lower and. upper lakes.
Dangerous,wiuds are not anticipated.

CHARLESTON, June4 - Arrived-steam?
ship Golf Stream, Baltimore.
100 anvils, to be used in the Boston
Peace -Jubilee, have arrived from Eng?
land, in the Gnnard steamer Olympus.
Twenty-five oannons have already been
provided. Military bands, royal and
otherwise, are waiting for the orders of
the triumphant Gilmore. And the Ja?
panese Embassy have all received invita?
tions to be present. This is the last
newB, and is anthon tic It is just the
sort of thing that will be enjoyed by
these distinguished foreigners immense?
ly. It will remind them of their native
land, and we should not wonder if, when
the anvils come into play, they shed
. tears. Sweet memories of gongs and
tomtoms, and dashing cymbals, will
melt their usuai stoical composure.
Envy at the inferiority of their own
land-in making the loudest noise'-tc
that of the "outside barbarians" of Bos?
ton, will complete their grief, and il
some of them commit then and there
hari-kari, it will be a matter of regret,
but can hardly be one of surprise.

?ON. B. GRATZ BBOWN.-In reply to the o<
otification o? his nomination for Vi oe- o;
'reaident, by the Oinoinnati Convention, ri
lar. Brown bas written a long response,
n whioh he says:
"I accept the nomination as a candi- b
late for Yios-President, and endorse ol
lost cordially the resolutions setting d
orth the prinoiples on whioh appeal is r<
? ada to the whole people of the United ?
(tates. A century is closing upon oar S
xperienoeof a Republican Government, si
nd while that lapse of time has wit- 8
tossed a great expansion of our freo iu- fi
titntions, yet it bas not been without y
Llnstratione, also grave dangers to the
tability of such a system. Of those, j
uooessf uUy encountered, it is needless to 0
peak. Of those whioh remain to me- \?
ieee us, the most threatening are pro- ?
'ided against, as I firmly believe, in the D
rise and paoifio measures proposed by t
roar platform. 8
"It has come to be the practica of <j
hose elevated to the position of national
mthority to regard the public service
jut as a means to retain power. This ?
esults in substituting a mere party or- g
ranization for a government itself, f
vliich constitutes aontrol amenable to no f
aws or moralities, impairs all indopen
lont thought, enables a few to ride tho |
nany, and makes personal allegiance the t
road to favor. It requires little forecast ?
;o perceive that this will wreck all liber?
ties, unless there be interposed a timely
reform of administration, from its high- 1
sst to its lowest station, which shall not ?
only prevent abuseB, but likewise laka (
away any incentive to their practice. '
Wearied with the contentions that aro !
carried on in avarice of spoils, the couu- 1
try demands repose. The Union is for
tiiied by more power than ever before
It remains an imperative duty to cement
our nationality by perfect reconciliation.
At the North a wide-spread sympathy is
aroused in behalf of those States of the
South whioh, long after the determina?
tion of resistance to rightful authority,
are still plundered nnder the guise of
loyalty, and tyrannized over in the name
of freedom. Along with this feeling is
present, too, the recognition that in
aomplete amnesty alone can be found the
hope of any return to a constitutional
government as of old, or any develop?
ment of more enduring unity and
broader national life in future. Amnes?
ty, however, to make it efficacious, must
be real, not nominal; genuine, not eva?
sive. It must carry along with it equal
rights os well as equal protection to all,
for the removal of disabilities as to some,
with enforcement as to others, leaves
room for suspicion that pardon is mea?
sured by political gain; and especielly
will such professed olemenoy be futile in
the presence of a renewed attempt at
prolonging the suspension of the habeas
corpus, and persistent resort to martial
rather than civil law in upholding those
agencies used to alienate the races, when
concord is most essential; and in pre?
paring another elaborate campaign on a
basis of dead issues and arbitrary inter?
vention. All will rightly credit such
conduct as bnt a mookery of amnesty,
and demand an administration whioh can
give a better warrant of honesty in the
real work of reconstruction and reform.
In the array of sectional interests a re?
public so wide as oars is never entirely
safe from serions oonfliots. These be?
come still more dangerous when compli?
cated with questions of taxation, where
unequal burdens are believed to be im?
posed on one part at the expense of an?
other part.
.?rt WM * bold, af well as an admirable
policy in the interest of the present os
well as future tranquility, to withdraw
the decision of industrial and revenne
matters from the virtual arbitration of
an electoral oollege, chosen with the sin?
gle animating purpose of party ascend
ano}', and refer thom for a more direct
popular expression to eaoh Congressional
District, instead of being muzzled by
some evasive declaration. The ooantry
is thereby invited to frankest utterance,
and sections whioh would revolt at being
denied a voice, out of deference to other
' success, would be content to acquiesce
! in the general judgment: 'HontBtly
elected.' If a local government be, as
? it undoubtedly is, the most vitsl princi?
ple of our institutions, mnoh advance
will be made toward establishing it by
i enabling the people to pass upon ques
, tions so nearly affecting their well being
. dispassionately through their local rep
. resentatives. Tho precipitance whioh
3 would forco ?he controling doolaratiou
. on the tax or tariff through the Presi
1 dential candidacy is only a disguised
, form of centralization involving hazard
? ous reaches of executive influence. A
- conclusion will be much more impartial
f ly determined, and with less disturbanci
f to trade and finance, by appealing to thi
most truthful and diversified local ex
r pression.
.. "Industrial issues can be likewisi
Q emancipated from the power of grea
e monopolies, and each representativ

H constituents. These are the most pro
minent features of that general concer
a of sotion whioh proposes to replace th
. present administration by one more ii
Q sympathy with the aspirations of th
masses of our countrymen. Of course
such concert cannot be obtained b
thrusting every minor or past diff?re nc
into the foreground, and it will be io
16 the people to determine whether thee
d objeots are of such magnitude and pr?
