ILLINOIS DEMOCRACY. A MQMENTOUS QUESTION. Bpecial Dispaich to The' Tridune. 8rrinarizr, 111, July 25.—There are herc us yet but o mere handful of delegates, Central Committeemen, and managing politlcians to at- tend the Democratic Convention and accompa- nying slde-shows,~not enough to furnish other than fulut foreshadowings of the temper and probable actlon of that gathering. A careful canvass among those now here develops the fact that there fs not a little diversity of opinfon ns to tho programme to be adopted and carried out by the Convention. The deslderntum, it Is without ~dissent conceded, 1a to cifect = coalition with the Deeatur Greenback In- dependents. The disergence of views fs upon the mighty conundrum whether the tafl shall wag tho dog or the dég tho tall, and it may require considerable hartunlzing to solve it In anfthing like satisfactoryfashion, Gentle- men who assume to represent the Decatur movement are already on the ground, fnnocent- 1y straining to open wide thek mouths to swal- low the groat unterrified of the Statc, which is jn like manner propared to QULP DOWN THUE WHOLE DRCATUR CONOERRN ato singlo mouthful.,, The Democracy of the northern, part of the 8tate, so faras haro rep- rescuted, 18 generally favorable to the indorsement of the entirc Decatur ticket In order to get tho Independent-Greenback vote for Tilden Electors, and to pave the way for conlitions on Coogressionul ana Legislative tickets. It {surged that Stewnart, the Decatur nominee for Govexnor, is a reliable Democrat, oras good a Democrat a8 s wanted at least; that Hise, on the samo ticket, {s a dyed-in-the- wool Demoerat also, and that substantially the rest of the Decatur ticket 1s genuina old-line, only the candidates DON'T CALL THEMSELY 3 DEMOCRATS, But the Egyptian Democracy, as far as it has reached herc, is * dead zet agin anything except o straightout tlcket.,” They can't reckon up that they made anything out of their coalition with the Independents in the Halnes Legislature, and thelr experiences there nre re- cnlled with disgust, Bestdes, from the number of eandidates talked of, there ure, as an cn- lightened Democrat from the northern part of the 8tate sald to-dny, an awful lot of fools who think the Democrats are golng to carry the Btate, and who don’t kuow thut the only fight for thenyto make is for ~ TIE CONTIIOL OF THR LEGISLATURE, 80 88 to sccure the next Unlted States Senator. Thus Licut.-Gov. Glenn, Ban Marshall, Tom Caacy, Josh Allen, Gen, J..C. Blick, ex-State Senator Brown, and others of the war-lorse order, aro talked of for the Governorahip, Betweenthese two fuctions is s thizd, which Is opposed %o the ratlfication of the Devatur nominations, but fuvors the nomination ns Democrats of us many of the Decatur candi- dates as may bo neeessary in order to nnke cer- tain of the'eapture of the Independent-Green- back votes. “Thisis GEN, M'CLERNAND'S PROGRAMME. o enys the party fn Ilinols cansot put itselt upon a platform opposed to that adopted at 8t, Louis. “By rutifying tho Decatur nominattons the Illinols Democeacy would put themselves upon both platforms, one for the State and the other for the Nutlonal ticket, while the election comes off for both on the same day, and that, In tho General's opfuion, Is u clrcus act the Illinufs Democracy can’t perforin, On the other hand, Tickerell, “the Destur candiduts for Licutenant:Governor, who s here, reudy and willing to decept. tho Democratic nomination, wus t-duy heard to remark that it would be no more incongruous or diflicult for the Democracy of Illinols to mount both plutforms than to pul both ‘Tilon snd I[undr‘cka on the 8t.

Tn ather words, thut the prize for which tho contest fsto be made fs not the Qubernutorial chalr, but tho United States Beoatorship, The candidate for Qovernor wlll, In that viow, ho rpe- ally muking tho canvass lor the United Btates Benate, nud Koerner, Yaltmer, and Mar- shall aro cachi numed for th nomination for Governor, and are each supposed to HAVE AN EYE T0 TIIB SENATORGHIP, With the like vlew a movement Inaugurated in Kano Couuty is afloat to nominata Gen.

LATEST INDICATIONS, ‘To-night the prevalling sentiment is decldedly opposed to any ratlfication of tho Docatur nominations, though there arg here sotno strony edvocates of that policy, But tu-morrow’s urs vivals may wholly change the complexion of affairg in this regard, It {4 not without signitl- cance, however, that thero s a fulling awuy of candidates for cach of tho nominntions. For Lieutenant-Goveruor are named R. N, Cady, of Mound City; Dr. Rogers, of Bloomington; Btato Sonator Lee, of Peoria. For Becrotary of State, E. L. Conkrite, of Bn:icmsun‘, J. 0.

Only six of the twenty-two members of the Democratic Com- ittee put In an appearance, and but one mem- ber of the Decatur Commitieo was in town, and they didu't get together. There was so much vigorous expresston of indignation mmong dele- guteas and muavaging politietuns agaloet any at- tempt on the part of the Cominitice to oitempt to forestall the action of the Conventlon that the schemn was Incon- tioently abandoned. Pickreil, the Deestur nomninée for Licutenant-Governor, and Coy, the Decatur nominea for Attorney-ficneral, are hera with representatives of the other Decatur unminces, sceking a ratiflcation of their nom- inations by the Convention, and, with cach new arrival by the night trains, the wariner grows the discussion as o whether the Deeatur ticket shnll he adopted and ratified, nnd s to bow thiat can be done without also practieally adopt- Ingand ratifylng the Decatur platform, and thus preseating to the world the party In 11l nois as H(JlbntTy opposcd Lo [tself on the new Iusug of the canvnea, 'Thera Is also some dis- cussion of the advisability of ADOFTING TIE PASSIVE POLICY AGAIN, As to that, ex-Gov, Paliner to-day said, *1 wlll venture the prediction that the Convention will nominate an electoral ticket merely and adjourn, leaving the Demovrats and the Deea- tur ticket, and T venturs further that, unbe- known to us, the Independents will make such changres n thelr ticket as may be found desfra- ble, “They couldn’t do anything of ghe sort st thedictatfon of the Democratie Convention, and have It necepted by their voters,” To-morrow the Democratle Central Commit- tee will meet. 8o will also the Decatur ITnde- pendent-Greenhack parts’s Committee, and the elforts at a coalition wilf be vigorouely renewed, with, from ]u-uwnt anpearances, qulic as vigor- ous opposition, A firm stand will be taken to make it the condition of the coalition THAT STEWARD BE DROFPED, and that the candldate for Governor be either nominated by the Democratic Convention dl- rectly or be put upon the Decatur ticket ot the instance of the Demouratic maonagers, The ostensible object -of mecting of the Decatur arty’s Committec is to nominate eclectors at argze. This will place them under the uccessity of doing something flual, aud as well will put them in positlon to force an understanding with the Detnocratle managers. ILLINOIS, ’ EANE COUNTY DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION. Special Correspondence of The Tribune, Genzva, I, July 3&.—The Convention to appoint delegates to tho Democratic State Con- ventfon at Bpringfeld, on the 27th inst., was held on S8aturday; and the whole text and tonor of most of the speeches and action were in the Interest of o comblination with the Lew Steward Grangers to beat the Republican party in IlH- nols. They sung the song of the welrd sisters: Black Tlrlu and white, Blue sylrits and gray, Mingle, mingle, iningla with anything or anybody to beat the Republie- ops, There wero but sixty-threc or four per- sons prescut, {ncluding the reporters, who were, wlith a dozen or moro of otlier lookers-on, Re- publicans, But scvon towns out of the sixteen were represented. Gus Merrington, sceing the searcity of timber, wanted the Convention to resolve {tself Into o mass-meeting; but B, T. Huut, an old, fossllized ourbon, sald the Dem- ocrats were always beaten when they went Into mass-meetlugs, and, as they had now met to win, he was uppoml to guch n resolution. B, T. Fridley, who has not been fn a Democratie Convention before for years, introduced the fol- lowing résolution: E Resolved, That, 1n the opinfon of this Conven- tlon, the welfare of tlie (overnment domanda the overthrow of the Republican party; that we are fatienod o majority of tho vorers oF tho Siate of Tilinoln are opposed Lo the Republican party; aud weare in favor of such a combination of knch votcrs on much a State tickat a8 will defeat | yember next the corrupt ticket headed by o known corruptionlst of the so-called Ropublican iy in this State: and In our opinion but one lccé?rn:‘ llcheluslhnulld l!‘:n put in l.l;u flt};‘lhy] the combined_onporition to tho party of pablic plun- derers, ll‘rls hod 1t Wr(llcupn“ {hlm’g" nuE but scratched that out and pat {n ** plunderers, '] Fridley, 1 support of Lis resolutlon, sald: \ye havo got to hnva sain help {7 €XBYCL 10| beat tho liepublicans; -aftd we must combine, and not bo run by men it know too much. 1t the Republican party bent us thls fall, we're beat foraver, Lew Steward ls & good Democrat, and allers has boen, and bas been & gond Democrat in the meancat district In tho State,—Kenduil County, Fuller, In Chicago, sald the outside In. fuence would be bad; but, If {t was sald that the Democrats hul made 'acombination that would Dbeat the Republicans, 1 don't sce where the In- finence could be bud, There aln't no monoy:lusue now, and we won't have no moncy-isaue. We had euchz iesno in Ohlo; that fs, “the Ropublicans madu a dogina, and forced it on the Democrats, und beat ‘em. The Nepublicans aln't golng to stenl auy more greenbacks at a dlscount, but mean to have gold to steal. There are 100,000 Inde- endent voters in the State, and they have elected congressmen and Asromblymen; and tho party aln't no shadder, butngood, lively bady, We can E"' the Elcctoral ticket, and porhaps part of the tate ticket; any wny, we can git as much as they, and wecan't do nothing without ‘em. When onr Conventlun gets to Springfleld, if they don't com- bine, they mu woll call it balf n doy, and ml- Journ and po howe; for we are beat. Steward may not care to run now, and mn{ba wlll give way for our mans but I can vote for him first-rate, Gus Merriugton was in favor of a_combina- tiou, if it could be effected; but thought it coulll not easlly bo done, ag_the Independents Nad their candidates nnd pletform, which latter was fn coutllet with both the Repubtlean and Democrntie piatforma; and, though candidates and State Committees might agree to make such a transfer, the volers might not ratity such u snle, . . W. £, Brown was apposed to combinations,— the Tant onie, with Greeley, belngall of that kind ;:( :atuslucsubu wanted, “They gulned nothing by it. yAnnther delegate thought a great ¢al was gained By that coulitlon, fn the breaking-down af partylines, und now thousonds of Republic- uug were coming futo the Opposition eommon. Ed Jostyn said thero wero tao many words in the resolition, and that some of the belly ought to be tukon out, and more buckbone put in, did wot want ta go to Springlleld lustructed, hut wus willing to goand do the best he could, when there, to defeat the Depublicans, s he wits aure they woulill this tall. (Fridley—* 1 don’t know whether you kin or not."| Jues Powell, au old Democrat, of Aurom, Diad Vistened, evldently with much uttention, to the several readinga” of the resolutlons,—as PFrid had called for Its reading every thne any ouu spoke ugainst t,—and fulled to nd any of the fumlliar Detoeratic Hteraturo of the present campalzn (o [ty and o he ot upon his feet, and suld it seemod to hitm as though the resolution coulid bo much kmproyed by stelking out several of the words in t, and fpeerting in e thercofl WREFORM.” That was the wur-cry, sl must Lo kopt in view. C, B, Dodson—who svears by sud at the Thaes—sald it was all bosh ubout the Demo- cratie party. What had theydons these sixteen yearst They uad ot to dzbit the most corrupt purty that ever existed,—one that had destqvea our commerce, our currency, and our country; that hiad bougsht Alasks, and triod to buy Culin, wnd would have bought England if the English- men had nol put 4 stop toit. Aud Bristow, gven, whom they had pralsed so much, even he would not tetl of the ruscalitics of Grant and his Cablnet. Thess old men here to-day had run the Demovratic party luto the ground fn Kene County, and he wanted younger e, Ile was willing to go In with the Independeuts, it thoy could varry the Btats by so doing. Fridley eguin proteated that the resolution must be carried, or tho delegates would saythe county voted to malke no such combination’ and wantdd the resolution read ngaing and it was run through again, Gus Herrington wanted something ke this passed In Springtield: . Wugusas, Thero sre two partics of eqnual atrength nowy before thed people with their caudis dates; and Wnengas, The Independents are fl]ulll)’ dealr- ous with the Democracy to buat the Republicana and turn out their oflcers; therofore, fiesolrved, That it Is nexpedient for the Degjoc- racy to nominatu candldates for State oflicers, Tis, ho sald, would uvoid ti® making of & platform to quarrel uver, aud the Republleans conld ke no cliargo that tho Democrats had gonsover to soft-money, Wuwould then put up ectoral tcket on theSt, Louls platformy and aweep the State, Gus was evidently not fully natislied with his proposition, uad so called on that disinterested and unseltish rutrlut‘ John F. Farnsworth, to give lis advive In the matter, ‘The General walkked up to the bar, with his hat in his hand, and said, ucpulnhru.[ toues: 1am in favor of the 5t.

Gus suggested that Fridley withdraw his res- olution, Lt Fridley could not see the policy of so dofug, and ealled for the rw!huyz of it again, and said those who voted “agin ¥ the resolu- tlon wero “ agin ¥ the Democratie parly; and, ‘l]! I‘:’l was voted down, Liowould not go to Spring- eld. Fd Josiyn satd that Tllinofs was not all the Unlted 8totez, and the Republicans could have it and yet Tliden would be clected; and he shuld ko to Springtcld and do s’ e — pased, . R W, J, Brown offered a substituta for Fridley’s resolution, but no wne scconded it, and Ifer- rington sald e liked Frid's better becauso it de- nounced the Republican party, * Joslyn sald that argument was conclusive; and the question was calied, and the resolution carried by a bare majority. ‘Then the Conveation procecded to ecept the resignation of the County Central Comimittee, for the purposc of getting rid of an obnoxious member, and appointed a new onc; and the del- L;gnlu wero anuounced for Springfleld, togwit: James Herrington, Thomas .
