Tho attitude which the third-term bolters from the Cook County Convention first as- Sumed scams to have been abandoned, and, necordlig to thelr organ, they propose to rest their case upon the following statement: Aga mattor of strict rule, the Senatorful dis triets uf Cook County, nnd the Benatorint dis- tricts along, have the right to njmo’ the delo- xutes to Bpringticld. Tho county, ns a wholo, ‘imply confirms these selections ns a matter of form. ‘This ruto was udopted a fow yoara ugo, and, prior to'thut, thy wards did the gama thiuy. Tt Mus been tha only custom recugaized by tha State Convention, a0 far as Cook Coltnty [3 con- corned, and It witl be tho only proceading recog nized now.

And we wut to say that the mulority of the Washburno and Blaine delegates muy kick and threaten all thoy pleago, this ‘will ussitredly bo tho outcome ef the matter, ‘The above reference fo tho primaries Is lugged in without any warrant. The call of the State Comuittes for the Springiield Con- vention divides the State d¢legates from Cook . County by Senatorial districts, and the fegu- lar Cook County Convention sogelgetpd then "The County Committee, in calling the County. Convention, designated the printarles by wards and towns, and assigned tha nuinber of delegates cach should elect, and the dele gates to the County Convention, Including the third-torm olters, were go chagen, Con- sequently the County Convention was mada upaccording to the direction of the proper nuthoritles (the County Committee), and the dtelogation to the State.

Of course this resolution was in no respect Dinding upon the County Convention of last Monday, which had the right to adopt its own rules, Ag a matter of fact, howaver, preelsely tha same course was taken, ‘The delegates organ{zed Into Senatorin! District Conventions, elected tholr otticers, and agreed. upon the dalegates which hud been selected by the several Committers of tho several Senntorial distrigty. ‘Thee delogutes wore regularly reported to the Convention ns a whole, and nppraved and accepted. Inorder toconform'to the preccdouts strictly, the Conventlon adopted the following resolu- tlon, offered by Col. Sehaifner: + Resolved, Thut the Chairman of this Conven- tlon nttuch to the cradontialg o llat of tho uames of tho members coinposiny thia Convention, , ghow Ing the site by Sonatorint districts, ‘Tho action of the regular County Conven- tlon at Farwell Mall was, consequently, In strict conformance with the gall of the State Committee, the call of the County Commit- tee, and the precedent governing the election of Stato delegates. No contest cay be sys tained on this point, It the third-term bolters should sot ups claim to representation by Senatorial dis- tricts, notwithstanding the forfelture of all thoir rights by seceding, 1t would give thom only the delegation ‘from the ‘Third Senatorial District—nine delegates in all,— because that Is the only district In which the bolters would have had a majority had they remained in the Convention and defended | tholr rights. ‘The eloven bogus delegates froin the ‘fwelfth Ward would have been re- jected In any onso, and the third-termers can- not deny tho right of a convention ta pass upon the credentials of delegates by gn ooverwhelining =«yiajority aud = upon the warrant of sworn evidence. The gubstitution of tho Inawfully elected delegates for ~ tho fraudulently elected delugates of the Twelfth Ward gave the antl- Grant delogates a majority In the Fourth Sonatorlal District. They had_a conceded majority in the First, Second, Fifth, Sixth, and Seventh Districts, Heuce the third- tormers, had they remained, could only hava clalmed nine delegates to the Stato Convyen- tlon, upon tho basis of Senatorial sepresonta- tion. But whon it comes to electing delegates at Springtield to the National Convention by Congresslonat districts, the Cook County dulegntion cannot vote elther as 4 whole or by Senatorial districts, ‘There fs only one Congressional district (the Second) which Hes wholly within Cook County. Tha Firat District takes Iu Du Pago County and the Third takes In Lake County. Now, there aro only three out of the seven Cook County Cangreasfonal districta which Mg wholly within a singta Congressional aigtrict—viz.: tho Becond, Fourth, and Sixth Senatorial Distrlets.

The four wards of the North Diviston, all the other othor Cook County towns, and Lake County will unite in selecting the two National delegates from the "Third Congreastonal- District. ‘The regular County Convention also foresaw this neces- alty, and provided for it by tho following resolution, offerod by 8, B, Raymond and adopted without dissent: Resolved, That tho Oook County delegation aro herehy fustricta meet at Springiield on tho morning o fe i tiget., and so apportion tho vates of tho Fi eaten and ‘Third Congres: atonal Districts for ‘delegates to the National Conyention tint the vote of Cook County bo cast BS the Washburna and 34 for Binine. It appenré, therefore, that the regular Cool Connty Convention provided 11) dotall for nll the duties of the delegates to tha State Convention atrictly In conformity to the call of tho State Committee, and Hkewiso in ae- cordance with the exigency af electing dete- gates to tha atipnal Convention by Cougres- slonal districts, ‘The reguigr delegation was selected by Sen- atorial District Conventions, apportioned pro rate among the seven Senatorial districts, approved by the County Convention as a whale, and Instructed how to voto by Senn- torinl districts and by Congressional dis- tricts. And the County Convention, In whieh this action was taken, was elected at the pri- maries according to the call of the County Committee, 4 : Where is there a single peg in all this upon which bolters can hang a contest ? .

One of tho eyl- dences of the deterioration of National senti- ment was the incorporation into the Con- stitution of a clauso prohibiting tho In- stitution of a suit by a citizen against a State, As this amendment to fhe Con- stitution was made ein the days of tho fathers, It will be seen that the moral de eay began at an early data In the Republic. aA cnge Involving indirectly the morality of this exemption of Stdtey from sults for debt {3 reported fn ‘Tie Trinune of thi morning by our correspondent at Nashville, ‘The cage 1s one gf same magnitude, os the sun Invalved is somewhere near $20,000,000, and this accounts possibly for the brifliqnt array of legal counsel cmployed on both sides, ‘The case hag juat been heard before tho United States Clrentt Cqurt at Nashville, and the arguments haye covered ‘several weeks of time. ‘The facts are given in detail in our’ report of the case, but may be briefly stated as follows: In 852 the Stato of ‘Ten- Negsee entered npan 9, sysfern of infernal tine provements on nu extended senle,.

After the War the State issued additional bonds for the sae purpose, and finally, In January, 1871, the rallrond debt of the State was, in.a round Bum, $34,000,000, At this time, the State and ‘the rallway corporations pelng both in- solvent, tho Logisla ro" spyght a heroic sremedy.

At the sane thne.the Legislature repented the existing law of ‘Tennessee which: authorized any per- son'to suc tho State In the courts, and thus fell back on the protection provided ogalnst stich sults by the Eleventh Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, ‘The pur- pose, certainly the effect, of this Inst action was to exempt the State of Tennessea from any suit for tho recovery of any of the bonds Issued uiider the uct of 1852, ‘Yh holders of bonds fasned ynder the act of 189, bolng thus deprived of uny remedy agalust the State, haye brought suit against tho several railroad compantes to whom thoy ‘were louned by the State, claiming that under theactof 1853 each company was Nable ta the holder pf the bond for its payment, as well ns Huble to the State; that, the payment of tho bonds, prlucipal and {nterest, was made 4 lien on each road for tha payment of tho bonds, as well to the holder of the bonds as to the State, and that the State could nyt dischargo that Hen for the payment of those Bpeelfie bonds to the extent of depriving the holder thereot of hfs vested right and secur- ity, ‘This is. question which has been aceu- pying the Court at Nashville for seyoral weeks, and {n the prayment of whieh have been engnged Mr. O'Conor, Stanley Mat- thews, Judge Hoadley, gnd many others of the most ominent Inyyers of the country, The bonds ou which this aut Is pending, with Interest runing frany 1800, naw agare- gate nearly $20,000,000, It the Court deciite, that the railroad corporations aro not ro- sponsible ta. tha bondholders, then tha latter, “having no legal redress qgalnst the State, will loys the whole sum, If, on. the other hiqnd, the Canrt shall decide the railways are responsible to tho holders of tho bonds, then tho offect will bo to siinplity the contrayeray In tha State as to the payment of the State debt.

Tie Tumung hag shown from the ree- ordy of the proceedings pf'Cook County Re- publican Conyentions from Qt, 91, 1870, back to Oct. 11, 1804, that in no Instance did the: Chairman of the Central Committee of this county ever bofora arrogate to himself the plaht to appoint, nominate, or nume elther the temporary or permanent presiding off- cer-of & Hepublican convention in this county, Our precedents ard all ngalnst sugh . exercise of authority, whatever they may be in Adams County, The tule heré has always been for a- delegate fo name some member of tho conyeution for Temporary Chairman, Sometimes two or three such nominations are made, and tho convention yotes upon thom and makes ity , plee; but it never permits tho Contral Comuittceman tonominate or name anybody to preside, What Slnger sought to do was wholly un- authorized and without precedent; and he knows ft. It was a gross usurpation of authority on his part ond was properly and promptly ainot ‘and ro buked. All the row, nolse, ant confusion that occurred !n tha convention was caused by this fmpudent act of usurpation on the part of Singer. Tho minority faction, who pramptod him to tt, dit so to make an excuse for bolting, “It was oll 9 pre- atranged scheme on thelr part. Tho “@rant bulldozers’? were perfectly wel! aware that Singer had no right to name or Appoint ‘Lemporary Chatrman, for sevaral of thoni lind been delogates to Cook County Conventions many times, and thoy were well Aware that tho usnge and rule af procedure Hore never permitted anything of the kind, Tho Whty should ake notice that, since Tits Tnimone published the precedents from tho records of Cook County Republican Conyen- tions, the bolters have “dried up” on that point, and admit now that Singer exceeded his authority, and had no business’ to nom- inate a Temporary Chairman, and that he violated our Cook County precedents In so doling. When Mr, Booth, of the Thirteenth Ward, nomlnated the Hon, Elliott Anthony as Ten porary Chairman, which was séconded by scores of delegates, it was Singer's duty to have put the motion; but, refusing to do It, and belng intent on thrusting 9 Chpinuan of Is selection upon the convention against its will, Mr. Booth very properly, and of par- linmentary right, put the motiop, took n, yoto yon it, ond declared tho result. Why should there have been any “row or rlot” after that way dong and a Chairman clectes ? Why dtd the minority go on with their “ rlot,” and attempt to oust the Chair- man from his sent? If the convention was a‘tmob” after the election of Mr. Authony, the third-term bulldozers created and con- stituted tt. 3 It should hqve qeeurred to the Whig that it was “downright rifianism and an out- rageous disregard of propriety and de cency” for Singer himself, not a member of the convention, to attempt to. thwart mut defeat tho will of . tho imnjority of tha convention by forcing on it a presiding officer not ,its cholce. Ie lad been informed, beforg tha convention had heen called to order, that tho How Eliott Anthony had been selected by the majority aldo of the cowreytion as Its tenyporary pre- siding ofiicer. Why di} he set up hts will against that of the majority, aud he not 9 member of the convention? What right had he, asa member of the Central Committee, to take sides between third-termers and antl- third-termers, and usurp authority to pro-, mote the purposes of the inlnority and defeat the will of the majority? Lhe Whig way profess to think such conduct “usual and: perfectly proper’; but itknows better. It it were * unprejudices,” it would percelve that tha Yazoo tactics * were resorted to by. the minority to overbear and bulldoze tho ninjority in the convention; and the Whig should be ashamed to espouse so rotten and rufllanly a cause, i 7 ed THE SPREAD OF MOHAMMEDANISM, Tie Londdn Spectitor of April 2t con:. {ning an nrticle of extraordinary Interest upon the growth of Molammedantism, the wrifer assuming the someyhatstartling prop- osition that “an fymeliate expansion of this faith till it Leesmeg tho orecd believed aud obeyed by, the largest portion of the human race Is on the cards.” The followers of islam are rapidly disappearing from Eu- ropeay the power and prestige of Turkey continually and regularly wane.
