ANTHRACITE COAL TRADE.—We have searce- ly any change to notice in the coal trade for the week eniling on the 2’th ult.

THE CONVENTION. BELMONT CALLS TO ORDER His Remarks. THE TEMPORARY ORGANIZATION THOMAS JEFFERSON RANDOLPH, CHAIRMAN HIS SPERECE. SCENES AND INCIDENTS—OUTSIDE AND INSIDE. GREELEY AND ANTI-GREELEY, Pennsylvania Delegation all Right for H. G. (Spectal Dispatches to The Evening Star.) Batrmorsg, July 9, 11:40 a. m—The city literally overtlowing toeday. Arrivals by the morning trains find it impossible to secure sleeping accommodations. The streets are alive with processions of clubs and flying banners and bands of music. The attendance is larger than at the Cincinnati convention, and quite equal to that at Philadelphia. ‘he vicinity of the opera house and the building itself are gaily and elab- orately decorated with banners, flags and streamers, while the air is enlivened by music from resident and visiting bands. THE SETTLEMENT OF THE DISAPFECTION in the Pennsylvania delegation, by which its vote is to be cast as a unit, removes the last objective point from the convention, unless it be the threatened bolt of Delaware. Congress- man Biggs of that delegation, says that under their instructions he fears they will be ebliged to withdraw from the convention if Greeley and Brown are nominated. The New York delega- tion, at their meeting this morning, voted unan- imously to go for the nomination, and to op; any amendment to the Cincinnati platiorm. Nearly all of the other states delegations took similar ground to-day, which insures a formal nomination of the Cincinnati ticket and an acceptance of its platform. THE PASSIVE POLICY MEN. This is contrary to the desire ot the Missouri delegation, who wanted a complete fulfillment of the passive policy by a mere indorsement. A nomination, they say, makes Greeley and Brown absolutely democratic candidates, which wil! have a tendency to drive off liberal republican yoces. Senator Tipton, ex-Senator Fowler, Col. Aleck McClure, John Cochrane, and other lib- eral ie taper are in conference this morn- ing. -Senator Hendricks telegraphs that he will not be here, and therefore declines to be permanent resident of the convention. ‘The = will therefore tall on General McCler- and, Opening Scenes. By 11 &. m. the delegations, spectators and newspaper men commenced to take their scats in Ford's Opera House, so that by noon the con- vention was in order and promptly ready to Proceed to business. The upper gallery, how- ever, was not more than half full, though every other portion of the hall was densely packed. In view of the gorgeous descriptions heretofore published of the inside of the building, it must be confessed that there was quite a disappoint- ment at its actual sight. The coatseot-arms of the various states depended from the two tiers, and were festooned with flags and evergreens but the ceiling was without a single decor tion. Mr. Belmont calied the convention to order with an address, Goring which the mention of the name of Greeley elicited tremendous enthu- siasm, all the convention rising to its feet and cheering. Mr. Randolph, of Virginia, was made tempo- rary chairman, and a temporary organization was otherwise effected by the appointment of committees, secretary, &c. The heat in the opera-house was not as great a8 was expected, owing tothe admirable ar- Tangements for ventilation. A CIRCULAR has been distributed through the convention headed with the names of Sumner and Groes- beck for President and Vice President. SUMNER FOR GREELEY. It is announced that Tilton arrived here to- day from Washington, and reports that he saw Mr. Sumner, and that he will declare for Gree- ley and Brown in a few days. ADJOURNED TILL POUR P.M. The convention, at 1:10 p. m., having effected @ temporary erganization, adjourned till four o'clock p. m. A. Outside Scenes. BLOOD-TUBS AND GREELEY FANS. BALtimore, July 9.—The arrivals last night and to-day have considerably swelled the num- bers here, but there is nothing notable thus far in the way of crowdsor enthusiasm such as have marked the great political conventions of the last twelve years. ‘The display of decorations, public and private, is also insignificant as com- pared with that at Philadelphia. The ony marked feature of display is the Grecley fan on which the round face of the great Chap; quack appears with a border of tluss represent ing his white whiskers. Everybody carries a Greeley fan, and it is droll to see the short- haired, heavy-jawed blood-tubs and plugs of Baltimore masquerading behind the beaming, Pickwickian face of the Greeley fan. A. large Trrperaph of Greeley, issued by Rev. Theo. Tilton, 18 d ‘everywhere as an adver- tisement of Tilton’s pee ij GREELEY AND THE NEWSPAPER SYNDICATE. ‘The newspaper syndicate is badly demoralized since it went to Philadelphia in close column to beat Colfax. Now it ia split up into Greeley men, Grant men, and ‘+don’t-care-a-darn’s,” and the jousting of the keen lances, like “Gath,” of the Chicago Tribune (Greeley), and “Mack,” of the St. Louis Democrat (Grant), is amusingto spectators. The cry of ‘‘Postmaster!” Tevoled by the syndicats upon jeg! Holloway, or any- body who raised a voice for Colfax at Philadel- phia, is now at the “boys,” as Shaw fra- —— me pty ante Greeley, P= all in good temper. 4 ‘THE DEMOCRATS CAPTURE A COLORED MAN. it has been felt that it was a weak side of the Greeley cause that it was going into the canvass with the colored vote of the country almost go fe in every piece of party finesse in Mary jand. ANTI-GREELRY. The city is Sooded also with the handbills of the Bourbon demoer: and the Greeleyites charge that the republicans haye a hand in issuing them. There are circulars atioat in be- half of the nomination of Sumner and Groes- beck, and this morning a letter has been issued, written by Isaac Myers, the colored speaker, in behal( of labor reform, replying in caustic terms to the letter of the colored ¢ ders, captured by the demoe: cause of Saunders’ defection i dismissal as special agent by well. ecretary Cres- FOUR-PIFTRS FOR GREELEY. The convention hall ‘was crowded to-day in all but the upper tier, which for some reason was only about two-thirds full. The applause when Greeley’s name was mentioned in Bel- mont’s speech seemed to be started by prear- rangement, but was so general and well sus- tained as to indicate that four-titths of the convention are for Greeley. THE ANTI-GRERLEY CONVENTION at Maryland Institute to-day was larger than yesterday, but there were only about 100 present, The speeches, however, were red hot against Greeley, especially Brick Pomeroy’s, wih claimed to represent 200,000 democrat readers, who repudiate Greeley. He spoke the democratic convention as recreant bret ren, who were Going to nominate the head devil of republicanism. His declaration that Horace Greeley never could be elected was received with great applause, and the little gathering a; the institute are evidently in earnest in opposition to Greeley. There is some disposition the democratic convention to nominate this afternoon, and close up the business to-day; but it is not likely that it will get through berore to-morrow. COURTESIES TO CORRESPONDENTS. Messrs. John T. Ford and Frank Richardson, both of whom are well known in Washington, merit an acknowledgment for their services in behalf of the members of the press attending the convention. Both have been indefatigable in their efforts to secure accommodations for the newspaper men, and deserve the warmest thanks for their untiring kindness and courtesy. Through them members of the prest were fur- nished with eligible seats in the Opera House, nl every reasonable facility afforded for re- porting the proceedings. N. LATEST. Doolitile permanent president. BAtiorg, July 9, 4:5 p.m.—The Conyen- tion has reassembled, and elected Doolittle per- manent president. The nominations will be made to-morrow. Ay [BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.) BALtimo: duly 9.—The Convention assem- bled at Ford’s Opera House, which is band- somely decorated for the eccasion with banners, on which are inscribed the coats of arms of the several states. The building, though too small for such an assemb! }» is irably ventilated, and more comfortable than could expected in this oppressive weather. The chairman's desk is equipped with the live oak gavel made from a piece of the old frigate Constitution, and which has done service at several democratic national conventions. Among the distinguished visitors on the platform are Hon. Reverdy John- son, whose entrance was greeted with applause. At 10 minutes past 120’clock the convention was CALLED TO ORDER by August Belmont, chairman of the national democratic committee. MR. BELMONT SAID: Gentlemen of the Convention :—It is again my privilege to welcome the delegates of the national democracy who have met in order to present to the American people the candidates for President and Vice President, for whom they solicit the suffrages of the democratic and conservative votes of this great republic. At our last national convention on the 4th of July, 1568, I predicted that the election of General Grant would result in the gradual usurpation of all the functions of the government by the executive and by Congress to be enforced by bayonets of @ military despotism. The vast majority of the People of the United States have witnesscd with lef and sorrow the correct- ness of that prediction, and they look forward with fear and apprehension te the dangers which are threatening us, if by the reelection of General Grant the policy thus pursued by the radical party be continued. The thinking men of both ies have become alive to the fact that we are now living under military depotism overriding the civic authority in many states of the Union, that by the enactment of arbitrar: and unconstitutional laws, through a deprave: majority in Congress,the rights of these statesare infringed and trampled upon, and that C.eser- ism and centraligition are undermining the very foundations of our federal system, and are Sweeping away the constitutional bulwarks erected ‘Ly the wisdom of the fathers of the republic. These abuses have become so glaring that the wisest and best men ot the republican party have severed themselves from the radical wing which is trying to fasten upon the country another four years reign of corruption, usarpa- tion and despotism; and whatever individual opinions we may entertain as to the choice of e candidate whom they have selected in oppo- sition to General Grant there cannot be any doubt of the patriotic impulses which dictated their action, nor can any fault be found with the plattorm of principles upon which they have placed their candidates. The resolutions of the Cincinnati convention are what the country require, and they must command the hearty support ot every ra throughout the vast extent of our land. In the struggle which is before us we must look to principles and not to men, and I trust that no } tag eer predilections or prejudice will deter us from doing our duty to the American ple. General Grant has been @ good and faithful soldier during our civil war. His stubborn and indomitable courage has helped to crown the Union arms with vic- tory, and the American people have rewarded his services with the most unbounded generosity. J am willing to concede that his intentions on taking the Presidential chair were good and patriotic, but he has most signally and sadly failed in the discharge of the high trust imposed upon him by the confidence of a grateful people. He is this moment the very personification of misrule which is oppressing us, and his re-elec- tion is fraught with most deplorable conse- uences for the welfare of .the republic and en- ngers the liberties of our people. On the other hand, Mr. Greeley has been heretofore a bitter opponent of the democratic party, and the violent attacks upon myself individually which have from time to time appeared in his journal certainly do not entitle him to any sym- but Mr. Gree- rinciples of the Cincinnati platform, and by Eis ‘admirable and manly letter ot acceptance he hasshown that be is fully alive to their spirit, and that if elected he means to carry them out honestly and oe, Should you, therefore, in your wisdom ide to nce in faver of the Cincinnati candidates, I shall, most cheerfully bury all past differences, vote and labor for thelr election with the same with which I have readin, them sequently procured from the clerk's desk the committees named were as follows, the first name after each state being on the committee on cre- dentials, the second on the committee on or- California—_Ww.

It strikes me as the duty of this hour and of this body to wrest the government from the hands ot its despotic and corrupt holders, and to place it in honest bands, to restore to the citizen every- where the proud consciousness of personal right and to all the states the perfect integrity ot local self-government. This with the recogni- tion of the supremacy of the civil constitution and the laws, in my judgement, discharges all our present duty. The foregoing remarks were delivered with much energy and effectiveness, considering that the speaker is nearly an octogenarian, and wero repeatedly cheered. PRAYER. Rev.

Mr. Madigan, of Maine, moved that E. 0. Perrin, of New York, be appointed temporary reading secretary; agreed to. Mr. Metienry; ot Kentucky, offered a resolu- tion of thanks to Mr. Belmont 'on his retiring as chairman of the national committee. The chairman ruled all resolutions out of or- der until an organization was tected. Mr. Lamberton, of Pennsylvania, moved a resolution that each state be called in aiphabet- ical order, that the chairman may name their members of the several committees, and may also, in case of contests, name the contestants. CONSIDERABLE CONPUSION cecurred here from the failure to announce distinctly what committees were to be appointed under this call. Governer Hoffman, of New York, urged that the states be called for responses to seo who were present. Mr. Fenlan, of Kansas, moved that on the ” dence ts to inaugu porary chairman. roll call each state announce its committee on credentials and also organization. After considerable uninteresting discussion the roll was called, but there was so much noise on the floor that it was difficult to hear the names a8 announced, and no appeals to the secretary could induce him to ceport loud for the benetit of the press.
