It was cloarly evidont that the Convention mntonded to simplity the fssucs of tho cnmpnign 8o far as its platform wns concerned, and, aftor much ekirmishing, the majority roport was adopted with ong or iwo unimportant: amendmonts, Tho hard-monoy elomont was #o cloarly in the majority that THE INPLATIONISTS GAVE UP TUE FIGHT withont & strukglo us .toon s tho voie was annouuced, Tho discussion was esrnost, and developed the factthat tho Domocratic olementin the Convention, votoraus at that, wore as much at varisuce 88 tho Republicsus of AMichigan, Mr, Dlanecbnrd, of Ionis, snd A, Wilson, of Knamozoo, had & sharp tilt, both being old Domogratio war-horses, the former favoriug maderato inflation, while the latter was squarely tor hurd money and the carllost possible return to upecio payments, In tho debate Mr, Blan- chaurd statod thnt Senator Chaundler told hima year ago that tho REHUMUTION OF BUECIE PAYMENTS was an impossibility, and that it would not bo reached in this gonoration.
