This conferense also suggested that the different State Republican delcgations hold conferences on Baturday night. This was done to a limited extent. Amonu other confercnces held weru thore of the Illinois aund Iowa delegations. Becretary Bherman hiad very little to eay, and nothing in reference to the Bouthern policy. He urged upon those present that s s important that Republican members should eall upon the President and talk freely with him. e thoughit it would bu a serious mistake for them should they sbsent themselves bLabitually on account of their dissatisfaction. In sunswer to the expressious of dissatisfaction with the Civil-Scrvice order and its operation, SECHETART SUERMAN INSISTED that * the order Lad been misinter- preted ond misunderstood. fn this he was warmly seconded by Garfleld and Foster, each taking the position that the Frendents intention was not to prevent office- holders frow takiue n properly active part in the campalgn after the Convention Bed put a tlcket In the feld. Gen. Cox, of Ohto, defended the President, indicated his cordinl support of hls entire pol- fey, aud argued that the President had stmply carried to thelr practical effect the principles enunciated in the Republican platform and in his letter of acceptance. At this point he was interrupted by Frye, of Maine, who asked Gen. Caox to puint to that plank in tho plstform or that clause of the letter of acceptance which forcshadowed the appointment of an ex-Con- federate and lfe-loug Democrat to a Cabinet position. Mr. Crapo, of Massachusetts, indicated his support of the Prealdent, both in his Southern policy and fn his Civil-Bervice order. Frye, of Ma'ne, spoke In very strong terms in condemna- tion of the Southern policy, oud as to the Prest dent's Civit-Service reform declared there was nothung fn it Ilale contined his remarks chiefly to the real subject Lefore the meeting, namely, the treatmeot of the auucipated Democratic resolution. NEITHER GARFIELD NOR POSTER had much to say i reference to the Southern polley, but occupled themselves chicfly with the discussion of avoldini a split In the party upon any vote which thoe Damocrats might force. Martin I, Townsend, of Now Yurk, said he had {elt very kiudly towards the President, and had desired to support him cordially, but that ho had become tmpressed by the reports which he had read from thioo that tbe President regundea memucrs of Congress unfavorably, and that, as lic was considercd a tolerably honest and re- spectable man at home, he did uot care to In- troduce himself at the Wiite House, where e could not be certain of the standing which he oceupleds ORN. BUTLER spoke with great carncstness in recard to the importance to tho country of upholding and continuing the Kepuolivan party, Bpeaking of it a4 the hope of the country, he ook the position that the great ohject of Republicans should be to {nsure iLa suceess, 111s remarksin regard ta Civil-Service reform were directed to Gen. Cox's specch upon that subject, and were PILLED WITIl ENERIS at this portion of the policy. In regard to that purt of Cox's speech in which ho declared that the President was in full sympathy with the party, aud only desired {ts good, Dauford, of Ohlo, ssked what evideuce there was that the President sincerely desired the goud of the party iu bis sclection of o Cabiuel, in which there were at least three wem. bers who did not care a straw what became of the Repnblican party, alluding to Evarts, Bchurz, and Key, Cox, 1o his reply to this, declared it to be un- falr to assume that these gentlemen were not {n acvord with the party and that they did not de- aire Its succ TIORNBUIOA, OF TENNESSEE, sald that the Hepublicans of that scetion wero utteriy sllsheartened, that thero was no longer a licpublican organization fu the_ State, that they had norepresentative fu the Cabinet, and that they were oblized, when seekiny anything i1 conncetion with the Post-Otien Department, 10 go over the head of that department to the Yrestdeut himaself, and that Southern Repub- Jicaus wuuld uot confer directly with the Poat- master-Generul.
