Aftera three hours’ session the Cincin- nati platform was adopted without any modifica- tion whatever, with the following introduction :— “We, the democratic electors of the United States, in National Convention assembled, present the following principles, already proclaimed at Cin cinnati, as essential to a just government.” All the States voted for the ge as thus pre- faced, with the exceptions of Delaware, Georgia, Mississippi and Oregon.

The National Democratic Executive Committee held a session this evening after the adjournment of the Convention. No official business was con- sidered, and the chairman will not be selected until the meeting of the committee to-morrow af- ternoon. The Americus Club of Philadelphia serenaded to- night the Massachusetts delegation at Barnum’s Hotel. An immense crowd was collected and elo- quent eee were made by T. J, Gargan, of Bos- ton, and G. M. Stearns, of Springfield, Mass, An immenac crowd guthered ii Monument square, et speeches were made from Guy's Monument lotel by a number of gentlemen. The impression prevails among several of the leading members of the National Committee that the Convention will adjourn sine die at two o'clock to-morrow; that before noon the Convention will proceed to vote; that Greeley will be nominated almost by acclamation; and that in the call of the States before Pennsylvania is reached he will have received a sufficient number of votes for a nomina- esd when the Keystone State will vote as a unit yr hin.

A Description of Him—His News from Baltimore. ‘GREELEY AMONG THE JERSEYMEN, The clerks at the Fifth Avenue Hotel were some- what astonished yesterday morning at eleven o'clock to see a dapper little gentleman with sandy hair and red whiskers come up to the office counter and register his name as follows :— Governor B, Gratz Brown, Missouri. He was about five feet six in height, anything but the idea of the traditional Kentuckian or the historic border ruffian of Missouri. His complexion is fair, but his face is covered with a thick mass of red whiskers, while his sandy hair falls in thick curly masses upon his shoulders. He wore a light lustre overcoat, gray vest and light pants witha stripe down the leg. He carried a small satchel. As soon as his name was registered the clerks were all at- tention, and gave him one of the best parlors on the first floor, NO, 48, Governor Brown was accompanied by Mr. Plant, of Missouri, and Mr, N. A. Hyde, of Indtanapolis. There were a number of letters awaiting him on his arrival, one from Ethan Allen, dated at Baltimore, and another from Mr. Greeley, requesting him to call upon him at the Lincoln Club, at three o’clock in the afternoon, The Governor and Vice-Presi- dential candidate retired to his room and changed his traveling dress, retaining the ight lustre over- coat, however, and then returned to the lobby of the hotel, where he was soon A CYNOSURE OF ALL EYES, A number of strangers, who had never known him before, but who were acquainted with his ap- pearance from the various pictures in the illus- trated papers, approached and spoke to him. He ‘was affable to all, and spoke quite freely upon all subjects, “How stands Missouri, Governor?’ said the HERALD reporter. ‘I see Colonel Grosvenor gives 70,000 majority in that State for you and Mr. Gree- ley.” “we can have it, sir, by any majority we want,” replied the Governor, The time seemed to hang heavy on the Goy- ernor’s hands until two o'clock, when he suddenly made up his mind to visit the Glenham Hotel head- quarters, just across the way, where he was re- ceived by Major Staples, and registered his name, THE GLARING MONSTROSITY of a picture of him upon a wall of the head- quarters was looked at by him with intense curi- osity, as if he was anxious to know who that could be intended for, The picture looked big enough for a dozen of the original, besides the hair and whis- kers are so red that the face of the Governor looks like it might be intended for a lobster of undergoing the process of here | “done brown.” The Governor, is after taking in this horror, inquired after Colonel fod ot and the prominent members of the commit- ee. At the headquarters he was met by A MESSENGER FROM THR LINCOLN CLUB, This messenger conferred with Major Staples for a while, and said to the Governor :— “Governor Brown, I believe.” Garey Brown grasped the man’s hand and sald :— “Yes, Lam Governor Brown.’ “B.

BALTIMORE, July 8, 1872. Hon. Henry STOCKBRIDGE, Chairman, &c. :- Sir—We notice in the issue of this date of the Ratnam Journal (democratic) a letter from Mr. William U. Saunders, one of the electors on the republican ticket, declini “the con- spicuous power conferred,” and also “severing his connection with the republican party.”? Sir, if you would serve the. best interest of the colored people of this nation, at a time when their liberties are in the greatest danger, you cannot serve that interest better than by making haste to accept the declination. The record of the republican party and democratic party from the election of Abraham Lincoln to thig very day is indelibly stamped upon the memory of every colored man, woman and child in the land, and for any man to presume that he can so hood- wink the colored people as to make them believe the democratic pore is their best friend and will be the best guardian of their liberties 1s to admit that we are fools and ignoramuses. We have a few colored men whose votes are up for sale to the highest bidder. The loss ot these men cannot affect the result of an election in the smallest election district in the State. have a few aspirants for official honors who left the democratic party to get office, whose thirst for Judas’ pence has induced them at umes to be neither hot nor cold. All of this class of men we wish to leave the republican party. As General Grant has been purifying the civil service of the government by purging it of thieves and speculators in office, 80 We desire to have the republican party of Maryland purified by an early stampede of these “dead weights,”’ The absence of Mr. Saunders as an elector on the republican ticket is an event for which all good re- publicans will thank God, It is providentlal. It was & great embarrassment to the party. It will be a in of hundreds of votes. The long, meaningless letter, with not one kind word for the republican party, but with many thanks to the democratic party, will hardly receive @ passing notice from any colored man in the coun- try. Respectfully yours, ISAAC MYERS, BANNER RAISING FOR GREELEY, Syracusz, N. Y., July 9, 1872, The Greeley and Brown Club of this city this morning swung an immense banner to the breeze bearing the names of their candidates for President and Vice President. It swings from the Post Ofice and the block opposite. It is an unusually large banner, and was received with enthusiasm by the supporters of Greeley and Brown.

ALBANY, July 9, 1872. The Senate met at ten o'clock and resumed the trial of Judge Prindle. Francis Owens, Solomon Titus, Luther Brown, Russell A. Young, Seth Cha- pin, Daniel A. Gifford, Samuel P. Thomas and Hiram R. Humphray testified to paying Judge Prindle various sums of muney for services in drawing papersin will cases. Attachments were issued for George A. Thomas and James G. Thompson, absent witnesses, Morris Birdsall testified to paying Elisha Prindle, nephew of the Judge, for services as counsel in pro- curimg the bonding of the town of Norwich in ald of the railroad of which he was president, at the suggestion of Judge Prindle; he asked the Judge how he got his pay; he re ited ti at he was paid a salary; he told what the salary was, and I thought it was very small; [asked him if that was all his pay amounted to, and he said, “Yea, unless I can make something out of you fellows ;? I considered that a Jocose remark ; did not think it @ proposition Deed oy did not intend to do anything to corrupt. William G. Welch testified that he had heard of the conversation between Judge Prindle and Mr. Birdsall as to his salary and Witness then said he went to the office of Elisha H. Prindle, counsel in the matter of bonding the town of Nor- id of the Green Railroad; I asked him for his bill; he handed it to me, and I saw it was $500; I then fold him of the conversation between Birdsall and the Judge, and asked what the Judge's bill was; Elisha H. Prindle told me he had not in- cluded his bill, as it would make {t too large; I told him to see the Judge and get his bill; subsequently the witness called again, and then found the bill was increased to $1,000; I remarked that our people might consider that a pre y large bill, when E. H. Prindie told me the ~~ thought he ought to have as much as he (E. H. Prindle.) E. H. Prindle, counsel for the defence, cross-ex- amined this witness sharply, but the witness ad- hered to his statement. He had opposed the re- election of Judge Prindle, though he belonged to the same party. Mr. Stanton, of counsel for the prosecution, pro- duced the bill for $1,000, which the witness thought was the one presented him. The bill was made out “debtor to E. H. Prindle,” and Judge Prindle’s name does not appear on it. The bill was put in evidence. Recess till four o'clock. Afternoon Session. The Senate reassembled at four P.M. Several witnesses were examined, but no new testimony of importance was elicited. The respondent was required to produce the record of letters of admin- istration granted by him and other papers, or allow an examination of the records by some one designated by the counsel for the prosecution. Adjourned until to-morrow morning. WHIPPING A CLERGYMAN, An Alleged Officious Ecclestastic Un- dergoes the Torturcs of the Cowhide= Why the Lash Was Applied. St. Lours, July 9, 1872. The men who were brought here yesterday to the THE GOVERNOR'S FUTURE MOVEMENTS. “when will Lsee you again, Governor #” said the Philosopher. | “Tam going to New Haven to-night,” responded | Brown, “to attend the twenty-fifth meeting of my | class at Yale College, and I hope to get back on | Thursday evening. 1 will be here all day Friday, | After that I expect to return at once home.” “Weil, then, until Thursday,” said the sage, ‘* will bid'you good-bye.” And with that the TWO PARTED. Governor Brown returned to his hotel, where he received a number of visitors. Finding that some mistake had been made as to the sailing of the New Haven boat, he remained over night, and will take the eight o'clock train for New Haven this morning. Among the gentlemen introduced to Governor | Brown and Mr. Greeley during the day were Colonel Bird, Mr. Hanscomb, A. J. Harrington, of Louisville, and a number of others. Horace Greeley in Passaic Village. | The few rustic denizens of Passaic Village, N. J., who were up by half-past seven o'clock yesterday morning, Were astonished at the sight of the veri- table and original Cincinnati candidate for the Presidency in the form of Horace Greeley. He took breaklast, consisting of toast and water, at the house ofa friend, and then spent tne morning visiting the mills, with the exception of an hoar's | nap at.ten o'clock, as he felt fatigued. He returned to the depot in time for the noon train to New York, AT THE PASSAIC DEPOT he was taken by the hand Le? @ number of gentle- men of ail parties, whom he greeted cordially. During THE INFORMAL CONVERSATION that here ensued Mr. Greeley remarked that he had no doubt of the success of the reform movement, These were new times, Old prejudices were buried, and out of every forty young men in the shops and factories thirty accepted the living issues of the day, and their force and power would add reatly to the xapidly swelling tide, He had een asked not fo write letters or make speeches, nor could he answer all the calls | by sla ndering | taking an upon him; bub the letters of personal aud charged with brutally whipping Rey. Thomas Cal- Jahan, in Reynolds county, a short time ago, em- phatically deny that they had anything to do with the affair, but say if he was whipped at ull he de- served it, as he made himself very obnoxious ladies in the neighvorhood, active part in local politics | aud in other ways, They tell a rather confused story about aifairs connected with Callahan, the trath of which will doubtless come out at the Judicial examination. Sherii? George was released ‘on $3,000 bonds, and Parks and Allison on $1,500 each, the latter on his own recognizance. It ap- pears they were arrested before being bronght here and bailed by United States Commissioner Swartz, at Ironton, to a, for examination July 15. They also deny that there is Ku Klux or any other un- lawful organization in Reynolds county. RETURN OF THE SEVENTH. Arrival of the Regiment in the City, from Sarato; ‘The Seventh arrived at the Forty-second street depot last evening, after an un-eventful journey by rail from Saratoga, and marched through Forty- second street to Fifth avenue, to Fourteenth strect, to Broadway, to Astor Place, and thence to the armory. They were heartily cheered by the spec- tators who lined the sidewalks of the streets Sere which they passed. Each company on its arrival at its quarters found a nice little luncheon laid out for its benefit, thanks to the thoughtfulness of the honorary members and those who had been unable to go to the encampment, The, marching to the armory from the depot, the steadiness of the men in the ranks, and the way the distances were pauetly kept, showed that camp life and its many everyday drills have had a beneficial eifect all round, although, in the single matter of marching, ie command always has been as perfect as can be. One thing is cer- tain, fi aging from the regiment’s drill work in camp, ‘al is called upon to do out-and-out active service oh the 12th instant, it 1s pretty certain that the way it has been drilled in the use of the new Remington rifles will be a source of great danger to any class of people who iptend to make a disturb- anna WASHINGTON.

Awarding the Prize Money to the Cap- tors of the Rebel Iron-Clad Albemarle, An act of Congress authorizes the payment of the: valne of any rebel vessel destroyed to the destroy- ers as prize money, During the rebellion Lieuten- ant Cushing and a boat’s crew destroyed the rebel ram Albemarle in the harbor of Wilmington. An appraisement of its value was afterwards: made, which left out the item of her armament, whereupon a few weeks since a new appraisement, was ordered. The report was submitted to the special term of the ‘District Court to-day, as fol- lows:— In obedience to the order of the Court, we have carefully examined and considered the testim taken Nofore us in the city of Washington ping 1ith day of June, 1872, and we have since 0 enabled to obtain from experts and ditferent sources pertientars, relating to the weight of arms carried by the Albemarle at the date she was ee by_ Lieutenant Cushing, of the United tates Navy, and beg leave to submit the sum ot 3282, 856 00 as, in our opinion, a just and equitable appraigement of the said rebel iron-clad lbemarie at the date she was sunk, in hull, ar- mor, engines, guns, stores and equipments, Respectfully submitted.—W. E. Roy, Commo- dore United States Navy; Earl English, Captain United States Navy; Robert W. Sems, Commander United States Navy. Thereupon the Court made the following order :— By consent of parties it was oan ordered by the Court that the report of the Board of raisers So a by decree of this Court on the ifth day of June, 1872, which. report appraises the rebel ram Albemarie,. the prize In the proceedings mentioned, as of the value of $282,856 90, be ratified and confirmed. The sum of $79,954 has heretofore been scatter with the Assistant Treasury of the United States at Washington for distribution to the captors. It is further ordered that the residue, $202,012, be deposited with the Assiatant Treasurer of the United States at Washington city, subject tor the order of this Court, - fi Official Information Concerning ‘Poor Lo.” Mr. William Welch, who has fust returned from an oficial visitation to most of the Indian agencies: that were about eighteen months ago placed by the: government under the Board of Missions of the: Protestant Episcopal Church, has made a full report to Secretary Delano, giving interesting details of his mission, with the names and history of the dif- ferent tribes, their habits, present condition, &c. Particular reference is made to the Santee Sioux, which tribe, Mr. Welch says, under the influence: of Christianity, ‘‘venerate their churches as much as the Jews did their temples at Jerusalem.” Con- siderable space is also given to the Poncas, whose friendliness to the government and earnest encouragement to the missionary cause among them is spoken of at considerable length, Mr. Welch says in his report that the merciful policy towards the Indians inaugurated and fol- lowed by the President meets with the universal favor of all right-minded people with whom he has been brought into contact, and adds that anor. ganized opposition to the present administration is being formed in our frontier States and Territories, because the President has placed the large appro- priations for the Indians beyond the reach of dis- honest men who claim this patronage as their right. Several other important subjects, including the North Pacific Railroad, whiskey trafic on the Mis- sourt, keeping Indians on reservations, the dis- tribution of rations to Indians, titles to farms and traders on reservations and other topics are also given much attention in the report, and are being further discussed to-night at the residence of Sec- retary Delano, where Secretary Belknap, General Walker, Commissioner of Indian Affairs; General. Howard, Special Indian Commissioner, and Mr. Welch are in consultation with Secretary Delano, It is stated upon the authority of General 0. O. Howard, Special Indian Commissioner, that the re- port this morning from California that the Camp Grant Indtans have left for the war path has no offi- cial confirmation. The Governor of Arizona says they are doing well. They were permitted to move to @ healthier locality, and the report of hostile in- tentions may be founded on this fact; or, if not, it is like the last one about the Slerra Blancas, with- out proper foundation. The Apache Visitors. General Howard leaves for Philadelphia on Thura- day with tne Apache Indians, and will visit New York on Friday. The Apache Indians now in this city discredit the report that their braves have left the reservation, broken the treaty made at Camp. Grant and gone on the war path. Santos says it ie the invention of bad white men, and hopes the President will not believe it. Suicide of a War Department Clerk. George T. Cottrell, a clerk in the War Depart- ment, committed suicide in the Ebbitt House this: morning. He engaged a room there Jast night, and this morning, after ringing for water, cut a gash in his wrist with a razor, and also inflicted slight cuts on his throat. Death was caused from the wound in the wrist. He left a note, asking to: be buried in Potter’s Field, and saying the suicide was premeditated, Cottrell was a native of Ver- mont, but resided in Wisconsin for some years. The New Tobacco Regulations. The Commissioner of Internal Revenue has just. decided that pediers of tobacco who pay the special tax imposed upon pediers py the act of June 6, 1872, are not required to pay a special tax as dealers in tobacco also so long as they engage in. other branches of the tobacco trade, A Melee Among Negroes, Arthur Cole, colored, was badly cut with a razor by John Rollins, also colored, at a picnic last night, Jealousy was the cause. Rollins was arrested here, after one o’clock this morning. He succeeded im getting on the top of an unoccupied house, and. made a desperate resistance. After his arrest he was carried to the station house, and soon three | or four hundred colored people gathered in front of it clamoring for Rollins, to kill him. Cole will. die.
