THE OUTLOOK FOR THE UTICA CONVENTION, Special Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Uriga, N. ¥., Feb. 24.—Tho action of tha Re- publican State Convention to be hetd hero to- morrow has beon, 80 faras tho main tssuo is concorned, decided i the County Conventions which elected the delegates. The question of Grmintorantl-Grant was before thom, und it Is safo to believe they have not ignored it in tholr choice of representatives, ;The Convention willnumber over 400 delegdtes, and of those thors are not thirty whose proferonees nro not known here now, That there aro any is owing not fo much to any unwillingness on their part to proclaim thelr views as to the cireunstance that for some reason thoir viows have not beon reported, although doubt- less well known to thefr constituonts, If this Convention hud to voto on two lat sof delegates, one Hst containing only names of men who unconditionally favor Grant's nomination, tho other naines of mon who would oppogo his noml- nation, the former Ist would obtaln about 250 votes, and tho lutter about 150. It ts not Ikoly that the issuo will como {n 80 simplo a form, and thoretore = 3 f MAY TURN OUT that tho votes actully taken will vary some- what from these figures, The phrases * Grant" and “antl-Grant™ are not preeiscly the ones most in vogue to dealgnato tho opposing fac- tions, The oppononts of Grant's nomination prefer to be called tho antl-third-term party, Speuking generally,~nnd thoro are few excep- tions to the rulo—thoy profess respect and friendliness for Gen. Grant, and base tholr op- position upon a conviction of tho unvwisdoin of nomlnating any man to bo Presidont for a third term, saying that in the first place it would boun- wise to eatablish such a precedent, and that iu tho next placo, public sentiinent being what It fa on this polnt, it would be assuming too much risk to challenge the prejudices of 2 formldubto section of the Hepublican party. ‘These aro tho things that appear on the surface; but one ean- nog cireulate much around the politicians who throng tho hotels, and tatk with thom, without discovering that another consideration of moro local and {immediate importance hus much to do with shaping tholr judgments. Senator Conke ling’s authority and prestige in the Republican party of tho State fs almost as much Involved in tho isauo of this Convention as in that of THUY STATE CONVENTION OF LAST YEAR, Senator Conkling isin favor of Grunt’s nom- ination, and the section of tho party which dis- Ikes Benntor Conkling’s uscendenoy and control in tho party opposes Grant's nomination, be- onuso thoy not unnaturally think that hia aleo- tlon would muke it inoro dificult to resist Conk- Ming's autocratic dictatorshtp, In which thoy can sod ho present or future good. With some of thom, therefore, it fs not so mua Grant as Conkling they aro fighting. Conkling's friends appreelute this condition of tho contedt, and heonuse thoy are hia frionds they aro tho moro. curnest and doterminod in their support of Gruut, not cariug for Grant particularly on auy othor grounds than beeauso he {3 Conkling’s candidate, Ono of tho’ moat prominent of this cluss, when asked what candl- dute he proferred for tho Pres{doncy, promptly responded, “Whosoever Conkling wante,” If Conkling should, for any reason, think it unde- sirable to urge the nominutton of Grant when tho Convention meofa, all tho delogutes and alt tho Now York Republicans who belong to this ¢lags—and thorv are many of thom—would fol- Jow tho lead, without protending to have an ine dopondent judgment in tha matter, Tho oppo- sitlon to Gen, Grant : APIEAIS 10 BY CONCENTRATED UPON SENATOR DEAINE, Undoubtedly the Maine Senator has a largo number of devoted and active champions in that Btato, but it would bo a injstake for his friends olsewhere to suppose that the use of his nano aa tho representative candidate of all those who ure opposed to Conkting and Grant isan accu. rate guugo ot his atrougth. For the thne being mon whose first choico Is Bhormun, or Wheoler, or Washburn, or Edmunds, are content to bo cluaged a8 Blaine men, Inn classification of the delogntea by thoir peetarenaes, wich appeart in the Uticu Heralds hia morning, the editor says: “In tho Blaing column, wa have loeuted Lor convenience all those who are known to be opposed to a third term, whether thoy favor Mr. Dnino, ag tho great bulk of thepr do, or whetbor thoy aro for Sherman, Washburne, or simply opposed to a third term, It 1s easily accounted for that a majority of the opponents of Grint and Conke Mog should turn naturally to Benator Blaine, ‘Tho personal and pollens relutions of Conkling ond Bling are such, and uve so well known, that those bitterly hostile to Mr, Conkling take great SATISFACTION IN BUPYORTING THE MAN supposed to bo most obnoxious to hin. BMore- over it would be an error to ussume that opposition to Mr. Conkling fs composed ox- Clusively or mainly of men who object to tho purty machine per so, und want reform, Thoy believe in muchine methods, but they do not like tho boss. Theav prefer Blaine, because thoy think he fa a connate pollticlin who, 18 sucgessful, would recognize tholr support and reward |t, ‘Thoro aro stlll othors who support Bluine becauso, a8 a mattor of political sagnel- ty, thoy think be ta the candidate jn tho feld agalnst Grant who has most prestige and pop. ulur stronyth, and who fa, therefore, inost available as a standurd bouror.

THY DEMOCRACY, EFPECT OF TI LOCATION OF THY CONVENTION, Spectat Dtepaten to The Chteagn Tribune. Wasitrxaton, D.C. Feb. &,—The Democrats ore much divided fs to their theories of the political effect of solecting Cincinnat! as tha place for holiting thoir National Democratic Convention. A Democrat who has been nenr to ‘Tien, and who claimed to have positive Infor- mation direct from Tliden ns Inte as Inst woek, antd: Old Sammy is as much a candidate na he hag ever heen,” Thia statement can be made ns authoritatively ag any statementcan be made on Uehalf of Tilden. Tildon fs a positive candidate, He has already formed” his plans for the eampatgn, [fe privately denounces most of tho men who have been mentioned as likely to be his residunry leyntees. He is particularly bitter agrinst Hendricks, and witl never forgive him. Field's namo, ho thinks, will never be mentioned. If it ehould be it would bo easy to crush him. “Thurman,” this gentleman reports ‘Tilden assaying, “isn man of abliity, but he has been playing double in nance, and bas no chance,” Tho position of Vice-President has been promised to Gov, Palmer of Illinois, Hoad- ly of Cincinnati, Payne of Cleveland, and to gentlemen {n Wisconsin and other Western Btates, és TILDEN INBISTB, TOO, that ho Ig cnpable of holding the breach, In New York, butho does not mako the assumption that he can be elected without the ald of New York, On tho contrary, ho thinks that he can carry that State,and !s absolutely certain that bo will be re-nominnted, Anothor gentleman sald: In my opinion the action of the Democratic National Comrltteo leaves tho polltical situation practically un- changed.” Somo of Mr, Tildon’s friends have the {den that the fatlure to secure St. Louls ts something of a defeat, but tho Intinences which will surround tho Domocratio Convention ara the samo whorever ittmay be held; the same kind of people will nt- tend it; tho delogutes will bo tho sumo cvery- where, end combinations would not be affected by any differencoof location, Thero were many arguments against St, Louls, Its botel accom- modationy are lest even than they were four Fonts fy, Owing tothe destruction of the arent hotel. The State besides is Democratic boyond queation, OMNO, AT ALL EVENTS, will bo a contested State, and there was an iden minang muny intelligent Democratie friends of the different candidates that by holding the Convention in Cincinnath it would be paesiile to carry =omore Congressional Districts, and might have an Influence on tho | State. The choico of Cinefmnatt dues not nec- essirily affect ‘thurmin’s — chances, — al- though |= Thurman's — friends ure very confident thut the selection will’ be a benefit to him. Thurman's cause has, on the contrary, for tho Inst two months been weakened by tho knowlellge of the fact that smoot tho most pruminegt men of Ohfo do not now favor him, n this category ire classed Judge Hoadly, Frank Hurd, Henry ‘B.

Tho Peace Cone vention waa called in opposition to this Conven- tion of Unfontsta, and was in reaponso to n request In the local papora that nll oltizens op- posed to civil war should mect. Tho first epeaker was one Cot. Whitetey, who devlared that It was his opinion that THF Filet GUN YROM BUMTER was tho denth-knell of the Union, Thon Thomas F, Bayard, present Senator, spoke. His speech waa publishod Inthe local papers, aome three weeks afterward, and oppears to have boen ro- vised by bimeelf.

He VAVORED A PRACEFUL TREATY fn opposition to war, Mr. Bayard arraigned President Lincoln as having Inaugurated wur In violation of tho expressed terms of tho Conati- tution, He denounced bim for violuting tho Constitution in that he bed iesucd a call for “6,000 volunteers, Tho acts of the Government in attempting to suppress trearon in the North, he characterized ns A nerics of tyrannical an uneonelitutional acts and usurpations.” The at- tempt to suppress the Robellfon be apoke of 23 “Anattempt at the conquest of the South." At the meoting resolutions wore adopted which ‘leclared that the "Acknowledgment of the independence of the Confedernte States is preferable to an attempt to conyuer and hold thet as subjugated provinces,” Then. followed series of resolutions In whieh Abrne hom Tincoln’s Governinent was denounced as “hiving {nnugurated a reign of terror and ervasiy violating the Constitution.” One of the resolutions congratulited Senators Bayard aud Suulsbury for their stand in the Senate'in. ayy ition to all Iegisintion to put down the War, and concluded that, if in their Saulsbury’s anc Rayard’s) “judgment no other mode presents {teel€ whereby this end can be obtained, to ad yoeate the acknowledgment by the United States Government of the independence of the Confedernte States, so that peace and prosperity may bo restored among us.” The spenker.
