The Independent Republicans of New York, a body of men nuinbering 50,000 voters, have. served formal notles on Conkilng & Co. that they will vote agalnst Gen. Grant If hets nominated. They give this notlea In advance of thelr fixed purpose in order to avold the charge of being bolters, and also to prevent the claim the miachine men. might set up that they would not haye nominated Grant If they had been notifled before tha Chieago Convention of the intention of those 5,000 Republicans not to support a third- term eandidate, By this formal public an- nouncement of purpose before the Conven- tlon meets, no machine man enn hereafter elnim thathe was “taken by surprise” at thelr refusal to vote for a third term of Grant, ‘These Independent Republicans give thelr reasons for this Irrevocable purpose to op- pose another term of Grant. ‘These reasons are powerful enogh to stagger any man who has the welfare of his country or tho honor of the Republican party at heart. Among the objectluns to anothor term of Grant which they set forth are these: If tho Republican party nominates Gen. Grant it will thoreby uasuine and defend before the country the various and numerous scandals of is previous two turns, all of which were the resuit of personul government, curried ou by Gen, Grant with the help and for tho bonotlt of his fuvority, and contrary to tho advice of the wisest statesmen of tho party, Gen. Grant found both Louses of Congress overwhelmingly Republican. Aftor eight years ho left both Hoses Demucratic. Can tho party afford to take him again? If ho fs renominated tho country will not bo allowed to forget, and the party will nave to dofend, tho followin, ainong othor things: 3 1, Ono of his vory frat acta as President showed naingular contempt for uw and regurd for hts own will alone. Ho nominated Mr, A. 'T, Stew- art to be Secretary of the Troasury, Mr. stews art, undoubtedly a cupnble man, could not dis enghge himself from bis vast importing ‘Iritér- esta; and a huw which bad stood for almoat three: quartors of n century on our statutes books, and. whose wisdom wus unquestioned, forbade an im- porter taking tho ollice, because {n collecting duties he would bo a judge in his own case. What happenea? Did Gen.,Grant submit to tho law? No, He coolly required a Ropublican Congress to repeal tho act, and whon that. re- fused, a3 was its duty, he lost his temper, 2, Next, Gen, Grant drove Gen. Cox, of Ohio, an ablo and pure man, out of his Cabinet because he refused to appolut: corrupt ‘and Inefllefent friends of the Presilont to oftice in the Indinn Burean and elsewhere, in violation of Clvll-Sorvize rules and honest government. 3. He foreed Joscph Wilson, of Miinols, tho honest Land Comnilasioner, to resiun because ho had decided a Missowrl Innd-clattn of the Dent family adyersely to tholr {nterosts, as Minister to England, and kept lin there until ho wus threatoned with arrest, 2 publle disgrace and scuudul, In apite of his notorious connection. with the Enna Mine fraud, 6, Ho enused the expulsion of Charles Sumner from the Senuto Forelyn Relations Committee, a post which he had held for many years, and in which his services to the country were of pecul- jay Importunce, because bo would not support: tho Sun Domingo scheme. 7 7. He appointed his brothor-th-law Casey to be Collector xt Now Orleans, and then maintained bim in splte of his proved incapucity aud bla open violations of law. 8. When publle opinion, outraged beyond en- surance at Casey's misconduct, demanded bis removal ho apparently submitted by requiring and ostensibly accepting Casey's roalgnution, “totake cifecton the appointinent of his suc- evssdr"’; but ho ever appointed’ a successor, and thus Casoy remalned Collector iu spite of tho public demand for bis removal. 9 In violntion of law, he gave his brothor, Orville Grant, the monopoly of trading witheer- tain tribesof Indiana, and caused the exchialon of other tradors certified to be respeetable men, 10. lo gave tho Federal appointments in the City of New.¥ork tou ward bummer pollticlin, Tom Murphey, connected with tho Tatnmuny Ring, and who was his own Intimate; and when public opinion Imperatlyely: demanded his resig- vnation Grant gave. bie a- letter, of fulsome praise. > 11, Hoappointed and long kept in thoimportant office of Attorney-General of the United States a oman (Landaulet Willams) openly churged with frauds, known to be Ignorant of Inw, untit by character and acquirements for tho place, but notortously a subservient tool of his own, 12.

' THE NATIONAL COMMITTEE AND DON GAMERON, Tho National Committee of the Republican parly is composed of one member from each State and Lerrltory, and ty the official organ- fzatton of the Republican party during the Interval between the adjournment of one Nationat Convention to the meeting and organization of the next, Last winter this Commiltes was culled together at Waghing- ton to determine upon the place where the National Convention should meet this year, and also tho date of meeting, The mem- ber.;of the; Committee from Penney! vanin was Mr, W, IL, Kemble,“'who ab. that thno had some “busineas tn tho Courts at home,—business likely to de- taln htm even beyond the next election, Ko ho ‘deslgnated Senator Cameron as his aut stitute, Cameron was subsoquently, through’ some manipulation, made Chatrmun, Usage has made it the duty of the Chalrman of this Committee to call tho National. Convention to order and to nominate a ‘Temporary Chatr- man, If no objection be mada, or division demanded, or other candidate named, the parson proposed by the Chulrmiin of tho Committeo 1s elected, and then the Chulrinan of the Conunittes drops out of oficial slylt. Until the ‘Temporary Chairman iy appointed or electod by the Convention, the Chairman of tho Committee Is tho quust prostding of- deer, : a ‘fhe primary question to ba determined by the Convention ta, whethar delegates aiall be allowed to voto ns dalogntos, each: for hin- self, and hayo his vote recordid os le may dlroct, or whethor thu majority.of each dete gation shallbo permitted to voto for them- selves dud also tor the minortty ot such del Bation. Of necesulty this question will arise upon the' motion to appoint a‘Lemporary Chatrinan, and will have to bo determined in the first tnt Cs or con by the Chalrman of the National mitted, ; é 5 ‘Tho Chatrman of tho Natlonal Committoe 1s, of course, the organ of that .Comnittea and subject to Its direction, A inajority of that Committea haye decided that, In orguntz: {ng the Convention te the oxtent of appolut- {ug o Temporary Chainnan, If ayotebe taken the delegates shail be allowed to vote in dividually, each mun’s vote to be recorded aa ho shall give It, ¢ ‘To this Mr, Cameron objects. He Instata, for instance, that, Instead of recording the vote of New York 48 Grant, 20 Blalne, and 9 for Shperinnn, tt shall bo récorted 70 for Grant if the majority of the delegation 80 direct; and, Instead of recopding tho vote of Pennsylvania 33 for Graut to 23 for Blalne, that it shall be recorded 54 for Grant ifthe majority of the delegation so direct. In this way the 45 delegates of two States will not only be dented the right of voting, Dub also their 45 votes will be given in «lireet opposition to their wishes ind those of their districts, and will make a dilference of Hd votes In the flial result. Now tho Natlonal Committee, recognizing that this ts.0 Nattonial Convention, composer of two delegates chosen from “ere Cone gresstonal district,” and of “four dele- gates ut large from ene State’? and two delegates from exch Territory, and not a “Convention of States"? but n Convention of the Sepubliean pare ty, lave tho right toinsist that its Chatr- main, acting by fis authority, siatt in the pro Himinary proceedings df appointing a prestl- Ing officer take and count the votes as they are given by the delemates, and not ns they inay be determined by majorities of delega- tlons. 2 If Mr. Cameron shall refuse to give his pledge that he will carry out this direction of tho National Committees of which he Is a member, and shall insist upon his right to tisfranchise 160 delemutes and exclude them from vollng, thon the Committea owe {tt to thomselves, and to the party, and to the country, to réquira Mr. Cumeron to resign, or, If he'retuse, to depose him aa Chatrnan and to cleet anvther to that aftlce.. In deal- ing with men who seek to disfranchiao the Republicans of the Union, and by means of a minurity of the Convention to direet and control Its proceedings and netions, the Na- tlonal Committee have an imperative duty to perform, and that is, to place the Convention fy the hands of n imijority of the delegates elected. Lt can do no more, and It can do no less without a betrayal of the best Interests of the party. LOGAN'S LARCENY. John A. Logan, pilitleally, is now in the possession of stolen goods, To put tha ense ina way which he will readily comprehent, he holds the stakes that have been won by stocking tho curds, Ile is clinging to proper- ty that does not belong to him. He Is guing {nto the National Convention with four dele- gates (Including himself) from the State at large whose appolntment was procured by bolting and fraud. In addition to these, he holds the rela and whip over twenty heneh- men who were not legally appointed at all, shice the districts which thoy seek to mlsrep- resent had previously, and according to party precedent ‘and usage, appointed twenty regu- Jur delegates, He has played n very des- perate game up to the polut where final au- thorlty will intervene t@ compel hin to des liver over the grabbud stakes to the people to whom they rightfully belong. He has achieved Nationn! notoriety .as a scientitic expert’ in fraudulent practices. Ile. hopes to hold fast to other peonie's property under certatn techntealities, No one seeks to Justify bis conduct ner his position ns Just or fair. 1f he should succeed in theond, the result would be mneh the same asin tho case of a man who AUPE conviction for swindling or larceny by some flawan the Indictment, Ho and those as- sociated with him In the effort to plunder the people of ten districts in this Stato out oft their rightful representation In the Na- tional Convention would wander about dur- lug the ensulug campaign under a tatnt of fraud and raseallty. They would be avoided by honorable and fair-minded men every- where, ant the people would wrest from them at the polls tho plunder which they had used for the suppression of the popular sentl- ment In the Convention, From this point on the odds will be against John A. Logan aud his pats. ‘Their game has been exposed.

If this shall not be the outcome of the Logan frand,—it the stolen property shall be allowed to remain jn the hands of men who do not own It,—if techuleallty or new fraud shall pe used to mature the villainy, then the men who havo plundered ten distriets of Miinolsund robbed the peoplo of thelr rightful majority in the State Convention will never enJoy the frults of thelr erlme., ‘Tho’ political bindlftt will bo drives away ‘from tho polls.,<Lbe.}, people will have :thé: power to avenge the wrong tat has been'fut upon them, and they will use it, ‘he Bess tad his assuciites-in this business may possibly pull down the Sepublican party, Sit they will pe burigd In, its rulns. es ‘ : .
