Distinguished American Tourists Travel- ling to the Ancient Town. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. The following special despatch to the Hzratp thas been received from our correspondent serving at the seat of the Alabama Claims Arbitration Court in Geneva, Switzerland: — Geneva, June 21, 1872. It has at last transpired that the question of ‘indirect claims has been definitely settled, and ina manner unexpected by any of the mem- bers of the Court of Arbitration, as well as by the outside world. At the meeting of the 19th inst. an issue suddenly up which placed the subject of these claims wholly in possession of the Court, and called for its action upon them. ‘The American agent and counsel having been ‘instructed by their government to declare that the government of the United States DID NOT SEEK A MONEY AWARD for indirect losses through the acts of the Ala- bama and other vessels, but only desired the settlement of a principle, Lord Tenterden, ‘on tho part of his government, called the attention of the Court to the seventh article of the Treaty of Washington, which gives the arbitrators only authority to consider claims in rela- tion to a money award, and submitted that since the United States government declared they did not seek a money award for these classes of claims, they could not be properly entertained by the Court. THE AMERICAN COUNSEL CONSENT. The American counsel thereupon demanded judgment on this issue by the Court, the ob- ject of the American government having all along been to secure a decision of the arbi- ‘trators on the subjectof indirect claims. JUDICIAL DELIBERATION ON THE POINT RAISED. The Court took time for its decision, but ‘is known to have decided in favor of the point raised by Lord Tenterden, and against the ad- missibility of indirect claims. THE JUDGMENT. This judgment will be delivered, it is said, when the Court meets, on Wednesday, the 26th inst., and is reported to be acceptable to both governments. OFF TO CHAMOUNIX. This knotty point at rest, all the mem- bers of the Alabama Claims Arbitration Court have left the city for Chamounix. They intend returning on Monday or Tues- day next, when the counsel on both sides, for Great Britain and the United States, will exchange the results of their latest instructions from London and Washington, and arrange the order in which business will proceed after the reassemblage of the arbitra- tors on Wednesday, the 26th inst. INTERMEDIARY NEGOTIATIONS. Dufing the interval of recess the Right Honorable the Secretary for Foreign Affairs of Great Britain, Earl Granville, will negotiate with Mr. Secretary Fish, of the United States, | an the subject. PRIVILEGE OF THE PUBLIC. It is believed that when the arbitrators meet | again tho sittings will be public. DISTINGUISHED TOURISTS EXPECTED. General Sherman has arrived at Zurich, and | is expected in Geneva on Sunday, and Miss | Nellio Grant and party are looked for here at tho same time. THE QUESTION IN WASHINGTON. Joy in Administration Circles Over the Settle- ment—How It Was Arrived At—The British Dexterity Which Gained a Point for Fish. Wasurneton, June 21, 1872. The prospect of the treaty being saved and | arbitration proceeding at Geneva as though | no misunderstanding had ever occurred is the | came subject of felicitation in administration cir- | cles to-night. The manner in which the set- | tlement was arrived at is set forth in despatches | which have passed between the State Depart- ment and our agent at Geneva, and which are now being prepared for the public, and will probaviy be given out to-morrow or Monday. ‘liey are substan. tially as follows:—On tho assembling of the | NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, JUNE 22, 1872—WITH SUPPLEMENT: tribunal on the 16th instant the Bxitish gov- ernment, through their agent, filed a declara- tion to the effect that the two governments were SUBSTANTIALLY AGREED upon the points of difference noted in the protest filed by the agent of Her Majesty's government on April 15, but that objections of the British government to the language of the Senate amendments, by which the differ- ences were to be settled in the future, were founded on reasons to which they attached the greatest importance, and which applied to cases LIKELY TO ARISE IN THE FUTURE. The British government therefore asked. for time for the consideration of the supplemental article to the treaty. Our agent admitted that correspondence had been going on between the two governments for some time, and while confirming the statement of the British agent that. so far as the terms of the proposed article were concerned, they were explicit enough to settle claims such as were included in our case filed on the 15th of December last, he had no authority to represent this fact to the arbitra- tors as the declaration of his government until he was so instructed. On Tuesday last Secretary Fish sent two telegrams to Bancroft Davis in which it was set forth that we had NO OBJECTION TO AN ADJOURNMENT, provided it did not extend beyond the 15th of January next. At the same time Mr. Davis was instructed to say to the arbitrators that while the United States agreed in accept- ing the stipulations of Great Britain set forth in the amended article, that she would make no complaints or claims against the United States for any indirect, remote or consequential injuries or losses resulting from a failure to observe their neutral duties, the United States would ro- frain from pressing for pecuniary compen- sation forthe indirect claims before the Geneva Tribunal, leaving the tribunal to make such expression of opinion as it might think proper on that question. Upon the receipt of these instructions the British agent was informed of the determination of our government, and on Wednesday he presented to tho tribunal tho statement that as to THE DIFFICULTIES NOTICED IN HIS PROTEST of 15th April, they had been removed by the declaration of the agent on behalf of the United States not to press for pecuniary com- pensation for the indirect claims cited, as the prolongation of the war, enhanced rates of insurance and transfer of the American ma- rine; that so far as the complainants, the people of the United States, were con- cerned, the British government was bound to admit that this waiver had removed substan- tially the objections first presented, and that the tribunal was now fully seized of the case, and upon their decision of the following points Her Majesty's government agent was READY TO FILE THE ARGUMENT in accordance with their understanding of the terms and provisions of the treaty, viz :—-That according to the second article of the treaty the arbitrators must impartially and carefully examine and decide all questions that shall be laid before them on the part of the governments of the United States and Her Britannic Majesty respectively; that the agent of the government of the United States had averred that in the claims which had been the subject of controversy pecuniary compensation was not asked, but that the points involved were to be settled by a sup- plemental treaty, hereafter to be agreed upon, and that according to the provisions of the seventh article of the treaty the tribunal was only empowered to DETERMINE AS TO A MONEY AWARD ; therefore the claims in controversy were not before the tribunal for adjudication, and on that question they asked the arbitrators to decide according to the power conferred by the second article. To this our government interposed no objection, having from the beginning declared that it was for the tri- bunal to decide whether these claims were the proper subject of claim under the treaty, and that we were willing to abide by the decision of the tribunal. The arbitrators it is expected will on Wednesday next CONFIRM THE OBJECTIONS of the British agent, and thereupon the mo- tion for adjournment will be withdrawn, and their argument filed, based upon the recog- nized claims for direct damages, leaving the international principle of the responsibility of a neutral to be settled hereafter. On this point OUR GOVERNMENT HAS NO SOLICITUDE, knowing full well that Great Britain is far more interested in establishing the proposed | new rule for the government of neutrals than weare. This is precisely where the last hitch occurred, and which, on the arbitrators Tuling in favor of the motion of the British agent, will leave us masters of the situation, a position to which we are indebted, in the opin- ion of prominent officials, to the persistent opponents of the British Ministry. CHARLES FRANCIS ADAMS. | His Position on the American Presidential Ques- tion. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. Geneva, June 21, 1872. In an interview to-day with a correspondent the Hon. Charles Francis Adams said :—“‘I adhere to the principles laid before the Cincinnati Convention, and would accept the Baltimore nomination if the Platform is good and the offer spontaneous; but I will never be wire-pulled into place. I am deeply concerned for State rights in the future”? FRANCE. Parliamentary Party Reception with the President and Prospect of @ Ministerial Crisis, Cabinet Tender of Resignation—Bourbonism in tho Legisiatare—The Indemnity Payment Negotiations with Prussia—Flow of Specie to the Bank. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. Paris, June 21, 1872. Political affairs are apparently approaching & crisis. The interview yesterday between the delegates of the Right and M. Thiers leads to a complete rup- ture between that portion of the Assembly and the President. The members of the Right to the number of 350 have since held a meeting at which speeches were made expressive of great irritation at the attitude of the Chief Executive, and it was resolved to leave M. Thiers to rely entirely for support to his admin- istration upon the party of the Left, CABINET TENDER OF RESIGNATION. ‘The members of the Ministry all tendered their resignation to President Thiers before his interview with’ the delegates of the Right, but they were all persuaded by the President to withdraw their re- signations to-day, with the single exception of M. Larcy, the head of the Department of Public Works, to whom it appears the Right have offered induce- ments to persist in his determination. STRICTLY POLITICAL, BUT SCARCELY PATRIOTIC. The delegates of the Left are meantime quiet spectators of the expected crisis in public affairs, but maintain an observant attitude, BOURBONISM IN COMMITTER COUNCIL, During the session of the Assembly to-day the delegates of the Right summoned the Duke d’Au- male to a conference in the committee room. THE WAR INDEMNITY PAYMENTS TO PRUSSIA. It appears that the counter proposals of France to Germany, in the matter of the early payment of the indemnity to the latter, were not, as has been reported to the press, despatched to Berlin yester- day morning; but nevertheless a favorable solution of the negotiations between the two Powers for the anticipation of payments and the gradual relief of French soil from armed occupation is expected on terms much the same as already stated. FLOW OF SPECIE TO THE BANK. ‘The specie in the Bank. of France has increased 4,000,000 francs during the past week. A MURDERESS REPRIBVED. Marguerite Dixblane, who was sentenced to death for the murder of her mistress, has been re- prieved. pe Cabinet Canvass of the Question of Church and State Union. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. MapRID, June 21, 1872. It is reported that the Spanish Ministry have de- clared in favor of the separation of Church and State in Spain. THE ATALANTAS. Rumor of American Failure in the Henley Sculling Match—Professional Re- port of the Case. TELEGRAM TO THE NEW YORK HERALD. Lonpon, June 21, 1872. Itis now stated that Mr. E. Smith, of the Ata- lanta Boat Club, lost both heats of the Henley scull- ing match yesterday, instead of one only, as was at first supposed, and that he has been declared out of the race. PROFESSIONAL REPORT OF THE POSITION. The following report—the latest in London—will explain the position of Mr. Smith, of the Atalantas, in the contest at Henley for the Diamond Sculls. Mr. Smith rowed in both the second and sixth heats on Thursday, winning the second, but being defeated in the sixth, by which, as the loser of a heat, he was disentitied to row in the final heat, which was rowed to-day, and was won by Mr, Knollys. There were ten competitors in the con- test for the sculls, and, until the conclusion of the sixth heat the American seemed to have an excel- lent chance for victory. OUBA. The Steamship Columbia Under Convoy of a Spanish Gunboat—Execation of Insurgent Leaders—Various News. Havana, June 17, 1872. The steamship Columbia, which arrived at Sagua la Grande short of coal and otherwise in distress, has left that port accompanied by a Spanish gun- boat, which will convoy her along the coast of Cuba and until she leaves Spanish waters, Several engagements between the insurgents and regular troops have lavely taken place in the East- ern Department. The United States steamer Canandaigua has ar- rived at Havana. General Ynclan and Captain Varona were exe- cuted on the 15th at Puerto Principe. A tobacco plantation in the Vuelta Abajo district and @ sugar house near Matanzas were recently set on fire by lightning and destroyed. The business of Havana and Matanzas is para- lyzed by the interruption of cable communication with the United States. President Cespedes’ Messenger Captured with Despatches. HAVANA, June 19, 1872. An insurgent letter carrier, while conveying de- spatches from President Cespedes, was captured by the Spanish troops. On his person was a letter from Cespedes to General Modesto Diaz, ordering the General to concentrate his forces for the pur- pose of aiding ina grand movement in the direc- tion of Holguin. Surrender of an Insurgent Band—An- other Filibuster Landed in Cuba. HAVANA, June 20, 1872. The insurgent chief, Pepilio Gonzales, and fifty men, armed with Remington rifles, surrendered to the Spanish forces at Las Tufias, It is reported that the steamer Fannie landed a cargo of men in safety at Cayo Romano, and tnen steamed toward Nassau, and that the insurgents carried her cargo to the mainland. The report re- quires confirmation. THE WEATHER WaR DEPARTMENT, OFFICR OF THR CHIEF SIGNAL OFFICER, WASHINGTON, D. C., June 22—1 A. M. Probabilities, Clear and partially cloudy weather for Saturday from Tennessee to Lake Erie and the upper lakes, with light to fresh winds, and for the New England States, with light to fresh westerly to northerly winds; partly cloudy weather for the South Atlan- tic and Gulf States, with light to fresh easterly to northerly winds and possibly areas of rain along the coast. DISASTER ON LAKE HURON, Osweao, N. Y., June 21, 1872. The schooner Jamaica, bound from Milwaukee to this port with wheat, capsized and sunk in deep water on Lake Huron. The crew, with the excep- tion of the cook, a woman, were saved. ENGINEER WEST ASSAULTED AND ROBBED, ALBANY, June 21, 1872, Goldemith B.

Fifth Day’s Performance in the Coliseum. THE AUSTRIAN eaeuaemeeeiig Emperor Francis Joseph’s Pet Musi- cians Not So Successful. DAY. Repetitions by the 17,000 Singers and the Foreign Bands. po BOSTONIANS WORRYING STRAUSS. CouseuM, Boston, June 21, 1872. Another big day for Gilmore's Jubilee; the ther- mometer at ninety degrees above zero, an audience of over twenty thousand and an ocean of enthusi- asm and general demonstration of approval, tell the story, In numbers the attendance was almost equal to yesterday. The crowds outside, too, were just as large and just as hearty in their applause of what few strains of musio they could gather, a8 was the multi- tude of 75,000 the day before. Everything is “Jubilee” or ‘Coliseum’ in Boston, and nobody appears to think or talk of anything else, unless it be such kindred features as the French, English and German bands, and the mam- moth chorus of twenty thousand trained voices, which daily chime in with the instrumental strains of the vast chorus. The scenes in and around the Coliseum to-day were unusually excit- ing. The torrid atmosphere and the burning sun could not disturb or interfere with the general desire of the multitude to come and look at the vast structure if they did not enter it. THE AUSTRIAN DAY. To-day was the Austrian day, with Strauss alone to represent his countrymen. The Grenadier Guards Band and Mme. Arabella Goddard made their second appearance. The bill opened with a national hymn by Keller, which was of the usual canticle order, Here a word should be said about the pro- grammes. There has not yet been one concert given in which the programme was other than a shabby little plece of paper, plainly gotten up for an advertising dodge alone, and full of inaccuracies. The consequence is that some of the poor country critics are constantly falling into the pittatis prepared for them by the unscrupulous Yankee speculator, who concert each bill and con- tinue praising or abusing Handel and Meyer- beer, without any reference to the actual works performed. It is but a specimen of some of the incompetent management that has characterized this festival to find that the very bills pla in one’s hands as oficial are entirely disregarded by the performers, The second piece to-day was WESTMRYER'S “KAISER OVERTURE, In which the Austrian national anthem, “God Save the Emperor,” is very brilliantly worked out. This was all that was characteristic of the day, unless we count in the “Beautiful Blue Danube” waltz of Strauss, called on the programme “Kuntzeller Lieben,"’ and his “Pizzicato Polka." Madame Peschka Leutner sang “Ernant” in Valami, or rather the first part of it, ending with an allegro from “Lombardi.” It was not exactly what we would expect from a great artist, this dovetailing of utterly dissimilar selections, In response to an encore she sang one of Abt’s songs, the composer himself being the conductor. MME. ARABELLA GODDARD played Thalberg’s “Home, Sweet Home,” and Bene- dict’s “Erin,” and although laboring under the fear- ful disadvantage of playing on an instrument not worthy to be called a piano, yet her great reputa- tion which has been acquired and bullt up during @ long and brilliant career in Europe, made her one of the principal Gein of interest on the occasion. The piano part of the jubilee has been a cruel de- ception to this fair artist. The maker of the keyed abomination which figures on the stage of the Coliseum is a member of the Executive Committee, and he contrived to get the monopoly of the piano department into his hands, Therefore ever! pianist taking part in the festival is obliged to use this piano, and the best firms in America are entirely excluded, Wehlt sat down to it yesterday, but as no one heard him play it is to be presumed that he was placed there more for ornament than for use. GODFREY’S BAND confirmed the good impression formed of them on Tuesday, and gave a magnificent rendering of the “Semiramide” overture and a remarkably clear arrangement of striking themes from Meyerbeer's rand opera. In response to an encore the well nown “Leviathan Polka,” in which Levy created such @ furor in New York, was given. ‘This per- formance was admirable, but it 18 inferior in finish to that of Levy. It ts the most dificult feat of double-tonguing that could be attempted by a cotnet player, In the — selections from Meyerbeer Mr. Lanford, euphonium player, Mr. Ellis, cornet, and Mr. Spencer, clarionet, Tendered some deliclous solos, and testified to the individual merits of this great band, “God Save the Queen’? was given with all the pomp and clang that accompanied its first per- formance. Mr. Arbuckle, cornet, played a solo written for the violin by D. E. Berriott, but failed to exhibit any qualities superior to those of aay ordinary player in @ band, and the contrast between his playing and that of Godfrey was pain- fully marked. THE GRAND SEXTET PROM “LUCIA” introduced the bouquet of artists. A very fine pro- ‘amme is announced for to-morrow—the Russian day. So far, in point of artistie excellence, the band of the Garde Republicaine of Paris stands first. The Irish Constabulary Band has not yet been heard, and Pope expectations are forming of it, TRAUSS IAS BECOME A LION among the Bostonians, although ne is like led to the slaughter while in the hai female members of the chorus, The little man is not allowed a moment's peace from his entrance to the Coliseum till his exit. Before his een ercoet of the stage he is obliged to secrete himselfin a lobby to avoid being hustled about and introduced to hun- dreds of people whom he does not want to know, and who are desirous of meeting him simply to gratify their curiosity. The average Boston mind in not yet up tothe standard of minding one’s own business, and void that of other people alone, and Herr Strauss is the latest victim of their peculiar fashion. No sooner does he leave the stage than he is pestered with a crowdof from ten to fifty blue-eyed and pink-cheeked maidens, who, autograph book in hand, are endeavoring to wear out the poor man’s patience, and worry him into a passion by a continual urging that he may sign his name. The work is done willingly enough on his part. However, he signs with a grimace and dismisses them with a long-drawn sigh. It is said by the Jenkinses, who have watched him hereabouts, that HE IS SOMEWHAT ADDICTED TO FLIRTATION, and that, whenever he is confident that the matter will not interfere with the peace of his domestic household, he seeks and embraces every oppor- tunity for a quiet chat in the corner with some one of the many Yankee maidens who are dancing attendance upon the movements of the wiry little fellow, He evidently intends to enjoy his visit hither to the best possible advan- tage. Before Strauss all minor notabilities are for- gotten, and if he Laat possesses that vanity which looks forth from his countenance and ap- pears in his manners, he is evidently satisfied with his reception. Asmall share of attention is given to Herr Bendell and the members of the for- eign bands, but inasmuch as neither the pianist nor more than one-third of the musicians understand English, the flirtations are dry affairs and seldom get beyond a look. MUSIO IN THE PARK. The Department of Public Parks announce that, ifthe weather be fine, there will be music by the Central Park Band on the Mall at the Central Park on Saturday (to-day), the 22d inst. at half-past three o'clock P.

NEW YORK STATE SUNDAY SCHOOL CONVEN- TION, Norwicu, N. Y., June 21, 1872, At the State Sunday School Teachers’ Convention this forenoon the State Statistical Secretary re- orted that 428 schools had reported for 1871; that here were 418,000 scholars in these schoois, and 65,000 teachers; that there had been 13,000 conver- sions; the number of the voiumes in the Ubraries ‘was 760,000. It was resolved iw the Convention to raise $4,200 for the expenses of the Association the 1 next year. LOUISIANA. The Conflicting Conventions in Session. —— Tho Packard Custom House Gang Fighting for Grant and Against Warmoth and Greeley— Pinchback’s Run-with-the-Hare-and-Fol- low-the-Hounds Policy—He Wants to Support Grant as Well asthe Cincin- nati Bolter—Warmoth—The Split Between the Conventions. BATON Rovag, La., June 21, 1872, Caucusing continued up to a late hour last night, and was actively resumed this morning. By the time of the assembling of the Convention Kellogg's chances had fallen to a heavy discount through the fusion of Billings and Mary. The terms of this arrangement are understood to | be that each of the latter candidate's friends are to vote for him on the first ballot, and on the sec- ond for the one having the largest number of votes, which Billings confidently expects to have. The smaller try are very busy this morning canvassing for subordinate officers, but candidates are so plen- tiful that all below the Governor 1s a free fight. The Convention was called to order at ten A. M., with the lobby well filled by Kellogg's friends, and a new set of Sergeants-at-Arms were appointed by Packard in his interest. It was opened with prayer by THE CHAPLAIN, WHO PRAYED that the proceedings of the Convention might tn- spire the enemies of the party throughout tho Union with hopeless despondency and despair. With this cheerful purpose they went to work with @ vim. On the organizing committee's re- ports the rules were adopted without cavil, standing committees were appointed without delay and the bali was then opened. A resolution de- nouncing any speculation in State securities by State officers as subversive of public interests was rapidly offered and referred. Then came up the first tangle in the shape of a resolution providing for a conference with the other Convention. This stirred up all the discordant elements, and was summarily shelved by a vote of 177 to 50, thus REPUDIATING PINCHBACK HOPELESSLY. The friends of harmony came back again with re- peated attempts tn the shape of resolutions, all em- bracing the same object in a modified form. The debate over these resolutions was very angry, wasting two hours in uproar and confusion. Re- eated attempts were made by Pinchback's friends Oo suspend the rules so that the resolutions might be entertained, pnt all were voted down with a marked majority. Hardly had -quict been restored before all the discordant elements were clashing again over a mo- tion to throw the lobbics open to_ the public, It was fought sturdily by the Custom House clique, but finally carried. Some other unimport- ant resolutions were then read and referred ; among them one declaring in favor of the eight-hour move- ment, which was loudly applauded, The friends of harmonizing had presented claims so strong that the Custom House faction now gave way, and a compromise resolution was presented by Packard and adopted unanimousiy. It provided for the ap- ointment of a committee of conference with the Pinchback Convention, provided it would first ENDORSE GRANT and repudiate both Greeley and Warmoth. Both sides then made speeches, the sentiment of which was that everything was lovely, with the republican goose hanging high, sentiments which the Convetion endorsed with applause and cheers. The Chair ap- pointed a committee of eleven to confer with the op- position, and then the Committee on Platform pre- sented a long report, embracing the radical colored creed from Alpha to Omega. No less than seven- teen sections of this ponderous platform were de- me to national affairs, and aoout as many to the ate. A COUPLE OF DOZEN RESOLUTIONS accompanied it, all redolent of pompous piatitudes and extravagant verbosity; and every question, national, foreign and local, which has ever engaged radical attention, past, present or prospective, was taken ee in this report, turned over and decided upon. It took nearly an hour to read the report, and it was red hot with loyalty and devotion to Grant, and demands for high moral government on accepted Utopian principles. One ambitious speaker made a faint attempt to oppose it, but speedily got lost in its wilderness and broke down on the question of adoption. The whole Con- vention rose to assent, and considerable relief was experienced, the State and party being then con- sidered saved and safe. The Convention adjourned until seven P. M. THE PINCHBACK CONVENTION, only awalting the action of the regular Convention, mei, and did nothing but pass corresponding con- ference resolutions, and then adjourned until the evening. Its members apparently feel, though they don't look, like Peris at the gate of political par- ee The nominations will probably be made to- nigh SAVAGE RECRIMINATIONS. The afternoon was occupied in caucussing. The Convention assembled at seven o'clock P. M., witha brass band in attendance. The chairman of the Committee on Conference reported that they had refused to confer with the Pinchback Convention until it had complied with the imposed exactions, and they had given to nine o'clock to-morrow morn- ning. An eight-hour plank, exclusively with regard to public works, was then added to the platform after a savage debate, full of personal aspersion. Some trouble then arose about delegates; a charge was made that the rolls had been tampered with, anda number of members surreptitiously added. Nervous and angry fears of trickery were charged, and a motion was made to appoint a committee to examine the rolls, until the report of which no bal- lot for candidates should be had. This raised an- other savage debate, in which personalities were freely indulged in. THE PINCHBACK MEN WON'T BEND. A communication was at this stage of proceed- ings presented from the Pinchback Convention, en- closing the following extract from thelr minutes of this date, in the shape of a resolution to the follow- d, That this Convention bein qual powers and independe ed at Pike's Theatre, any ass dictate specific ac character as conditions precedent to and also the instructions of the Convention to their | committee to enter into no conference until this Con- | vention had complied with their mandates, are de | tory to the dignity and ind | extraordinary and unpre Mamentary bodies, and a we cannot submit to them without a loss of se and a sacrifice of the honor ot our constituents, a us to the reluctant conclusion that unless other counsels | prevail the harmony and success of the republican party ‘will still remain in fuminent Resolved, That this this State to republican rule, and ople whom it represents from the destruction of democratic | ascendancy, and are willing to adopt any honorable | means conductive to these ends. | As soon as the reading of this was completed a | motion was made to discharge the Committee of Conference from all further consideration of the subject, Unanimousiy carried. This secures a split in the radical party, a8 the Pinchback Conven- | represoutative | the Conven- | ny Convention — to tion, smarting under this rebuif, will cer- tainly nominate a full ticket to-morrow. After several members who had advocated harmonizing had publicly recanted their opinions and concurred in the action of the Convention, it adjourned to meet to-morrow morning, at ten o'clock, and proceed with the nominations. A bet- ter spirit is now manifested. The Convention sep- | arated amid loud expressions of enthusiasm, ALABAMA, Adjournment of the Democratic Conven- tion—Resolutions and Appointment of | Greeley Delegates to Baltimore. Montcomery, Ala., June 21, 1872. The Alabama State Democratic State Convention adjourned to-day. It declined to appoint electors, | leaving it to the Congressional districts after the Baltimore Convention, The followiug resolution was adopted by a large majority :— Resolved, That in the opinion of this convention, under existing citcumstances, the National Democratic Conven- tion ought not to make nominations in opposition to the | nominations recently made at Cincinnati. This resolution is not intended to instruct the | ‘o delegates to be sent to Baltimore. Delegates to the Baltimore Convention were | elected, and Alpheus Baker and J. J. Jolly were nominated for Congressmen at large. MISSOURI. A Deadlock Between the Two Branches of the Legislature Touching the Redis- tricting of the State and Election of Presidential Electors.

There has been a great want of harmony, the strife being principally on an effort to support Brooks, the Rice bolt- ing republican candidate for Governor. This endorsement, after very bitter and exciting con- test, failed, and t Jonvention adjourned, leaving. the democracy to support in the coming campaign any ticket they may think best. Prominent, and, in truth, the leading democrata stated im conven- tion that the democrat party was from this time dead and buried in this State; that Brooks cannot get the support of one out of ten of the democracy, and that they should go nome and take any posi- tion in the future that will suit them best. The Convention sent good delegates to Baltt- more, instructing them to vote for Greeley Brown, adopted the Cincinnati platform and left themselves in the State wholly disorganized. To- day there is much itement in the streets im reference to the Convention not making’ any State nominations, many de: ts claiming that they have been sold to the Greeley and Brooks party.
