This heurt- less, cruel eding found a ‘victim amon; our white ‘chow citizens. An excellent merchan' of Connecticut, praised by all who'knew him, was plunged into prison by z, where he was im- mured because it was feared he would write against the treaty of annexation, and this captivity was proto with the connivance of two oe of the vresident, one of whom is found constantly with + him, and is part of the military ring immediately about flim, ‘That such an outrage could go unpun- ished shows the little ‘dof the President for human right whether in white or black. I confess my trial as I was called to witness these things. Always a supporter of the admin- istration, und sincerely desiring to labor with it I never uttered a word with regar to itexcept in kindness. My early opposition to the treaty of annexation was reserved, 80 that for some time my opinions were unknown. It was only when I saw the breach of all law, human and divine, that I was aroused, and then began the ANGER OF THK PRESIDENT | and of his rings—military and Senatorial. Devoted | to the African race, I felt for them, besides being | humbled that the great republic, acting through its President, could set such an cxample where the national constitution, imternational law and hu- manity were all sacrificed, Especially was [moved when I saw the indignity to the colored race, which was accomplished by aelingagee s fandamental principle of international law, declaring the equality of nations as our Declaration of Independence de- clares equality of man. This terrible transaction, which nobody can defend, is among the an- tecedents of President Grant, from which you can judge how much the colored race can rely upon his “heartfelt sympathies.”” INDIGNITY TO DOUGLASS, Nor can it be forgotten that shortly afterward, on the return of the Commission from this island, the Hon, Frederick Douglass, the culored orator, ac- complished in manners as in eloquence, was thrust | away ‘rom the company of the Commissioners at ; Mie common table of the mail packet on the Poto- mac, almosc within sight of the Executive Man- sion, simply on account of his color, But the President, at whose invitation he had joined the the Commission, never uttered a word in condemnation of this exclusion, and when entertaining the returned Commissioners at dinner, carefully omitted Mr. Douglass, who wea in Washington at the time, and thus repeated the in- dignity. Other’ things might be mentioned as showig the sympathies of the President; but I cannot lorget SH AIH. RIOHES ILE, . which is the capstove of that equality before the law to which all are entitled, without distinction of color. President Grant, who could lobby so assidu- ously for lus St. Domingo scheme, full of wrong to the colored race, could do nothing for this benefi- cent measure, During a long session of Congress it was discussed constantly, and the colored people | everywhere hung upon the debate; but there was | No word of “heartfelt sympathy” from the President. | At last, just oefore the nominating Convention, he addressed a letter to a meeting of colored fellow citizens in Washington, called to advance this cause, where he avoided the question by declaring himself in favor of “the exercise of those LB ted to Which every citizen should be justly entitled,” leaving it uncertain whether colored people are justly entitied to the rights secured by the pending bill. Tunderstand that Horace Greeley has been | already assatied by an impracticable democrat as | being friendly to this bill, but nobody has lisped | against President Grant on this.account. } the antecedents I deem it myd | little capacity of industry of | tecting colored people and in Lo ee pers at the South, Nobody can doubt that @ small portion of the effort aud earnest will, even without the lobby- | ing, so freely given to the St. Domingo scheme would have averted THOSE BU KLUX OUTRAGES which we deplore, so that there would have been | no pretence for further legislation by Congress. But he was disabled both by character and tne drawback of his own conduct. After violating tue constitution and interna jaw to insult the | Dinck republic, and setting an_ example of insubor- dination, he was not in a condition to rebuke law- breakers, PRESENT CONDITION OF BOTH CANDIDATES. Second—vassing from “antecedents,” I come now to the present position of the two candidates, which is the subject of yotr next ingniry. It in any former particulars the two are on an equality, yet, in ail substantial | obvious advantage is with Horace Greeley. Each | was nominated by a republican Convention—one at } Cincinnati and the other at Philadelphia; so that in tis respect they may seem to be on an equality. Lut it will not fail to be observed that the Conven- tion at Cincinnati was composed of able and acknowledged republicans, many of whom have acted with the party irom its first tormation, who, without previous organization, came together vol- | wntarily for the sake of reform and purity in the government; while on the other hand the Vonven- tion at Piiladelphia was composed ot delegetes chosen largely under the intlnence of office-Lol | who assembled to sustain what is known as ism, being the persona) government and perso pretensions of President Grant, involving nepo' repayment of giits by oficial patronage, neg pubhe duty, absentecism, military rule, disreg: j of constitution and law, and indignity to the colored race. All of which is 80 arepubiican as to make its support impossivie | for true republicans. Therefore, the Convention at | Philadelphia, though calling itself republican, was Jess repeblican than that at Cincinnati, THE TWO PLATFORMS, so far As concerns especially the colored race, are ) ake la substan but that of Cincinnati is ex Xpresse@ in terms most worthy. Of the equa! nts it states and claims:—“We recognize the equality of ali men before the law, and hoi that it vis the duty of the government in its dealings with 4 the beople to mete out equal and exact justice to wil of whatever nativity, race, color or persuasion, religious or political.” in other respe is the most repabli just those unrepublican abuses which have been nursed by the President into per- | Dicious activity.

To suppose that. Horace Greele; hem the most go depart from the rule of his honest life, is an in- suit to reason.

They ave accepted the Cincinnatl platform with its two- ae ; gsi and intend in good faith to main- " hi the Oonv enti on adopuing wile platform, who, at le nvention adopt a fol sang Greele, to the tune of “vid Joan Brown, Hi ul is On,” king especially the establishment ef character in the national govern- mony 4 ey will pepacs the President to ‘be always true to himself. Therefore I put aside the Ly “| allegations.

Nobody who votes for Horace Greeley wiil go'to the democrats, nor do I believe that when elected Horace Greeley will be under any influence except that tened conscience which will keep him ever true-to the principles he represents, entiemen—In thus answering your two 1 quiries, I have shown why you, a8 Colored fello’ citizens, and also all who would uphold your rights and save the colored race from sole ity, should refuse to sanction the re-election of the ident, and put your ‘trust in Horace Greeley. I ought to add ‘that with him will associated, as Vice President, Gratz Brown, whom I have known for years a3 most determined abolitionist. The two together will carry into the national government an unswerving devotion to your rights not to be disturbed by partisan dicta- tion or sectional prejudice. Besides all this, which may tully guide you in determining between the when placed where he can do t! will two candidates, it is my duty to remind you that as Falege of the United States and part of the coun- ry, Egg welfare is indissolubly associated with that of the whole country. Where all are prosperous | you will be gainers, erefore, while justiy careful of your own rigata you cannot be indifferent to the blessing cf good government. It is for you to con- sider whether the time has not come for SOMETHING BETTER THAN THE SWORD, and whether a character like Horace Greeley does not give wtronger assurance of government than can be found in the insulter of the colored race, already famous from the'rings about him and his plain inaptitude for civil life. The supporters of President Grant compe! us to observe his offences and shortcomings, The comparison they challenge cannot be declined; it will be for others in the present canvass to bold it before the American peo- ple. Leche pet for myself, I have to say that my vote wili given tor Horace Greeley; but in giving it Ido not go to the democratic party, nor am I any less a republican, On the contrary, I am 80 much a republican that I cannot support a candidate whose conduct in civil life shows an incapacity -to app%ciate republican principles and whose administration is marked by acts of delinquency, especially towards the colored race, by the side of which the allegations on the impeachment of Andrew Johnson were technical and trivial. UNQUESTIONABLY PRESIDENT GRANT DESERVES TM- PEACHMENT for high crimes and misdemeanors rather than a renomination, and on the trial it would have been enough to exhibit his-seizure of the war power and his indignity to the Black Republic, with its popu- population of y in violation of tue national constitution and of international jaw. And here a contrast arises between him and Abraham Lincoin. The latter, in his first annua! mi nition of what sovereignty of Hayti;” but it is at these that Pr dent Grant has struck, One of Abraham Lincol first acts was to put the Black Republic on equality with other Powers; one of President Grant's acts to degrade it. Iam so -much ofa r publican that I wish to see in the Presidential chair a lifetime abolitionist. 1 wish a President sincerely devoted to civil service reform, beginning with tme one term principle, which President Grant once accepted, but now disowns. 1 also wish'a President who sets the ex- ample of industry and unselfish dedication to the public good, and I wish to see a President throagh whom we fay expect peace and harmony instead of discord. Strangely, President Grant seems to delight in strife. If he finds no enemy he falls upon his friends, as when he struck at the Black Republic, insuited Russia in his unnual message, OFFENDED BOTH FRANCE AND GERMANY and then in personal relations quarrefled gen- erally. nt personal experience teaches how futile is the charge that because Horace Greeley receives democratic votes, therefore he becomes @ democrat, or lapses under democratic control. 1 was first chosen to the Senate by a coalition essage, recommended the recog- he called the “Independence and esi of free soilers and democrats, Democratic votes helped make me Senator from Mass- achusetts, as they also helped make my excellent friend, Mr. Chase, Senator trom Ohio and will help make Horace Greeley President, But neither Mr, Chase nor myself was on this account less faithful as free soiters and, answerin; for myself, 1 know that I never became a democrat or lapsed under democratic contro}. 1 do not doubt that Horace Greeley will be equally consistent. The charge to thecontrary 80 vehemently repeated seems to reilect the character of those who make | it, exeept that many ae it by rote. ‘There isa common saying, “Principles, not men,” and on this ground an appeal is made for President | Grant feeling that in any personal comparison with Horace Greeley ie must fail, But a better saying | is “principles and men." m for the principles of the republican party in contradiction to Grant- ism, and lam for the man who truly represents | them.

The citizens and city officials and the residents for miles around have been working themselves into a terrible state of excitement for the past few days over the announcement that a real live President of the United States had condescended to come down upon them, not so much like a wolf on the fold as like alamb tothe slaughter, The day here has had the appearance of a general holi- day, all the inhabitants turning out in their best sunday clothes, and the hotels, public buildings and many of the private dwellings being gayly deco- rated with every conceivable variety of banner and streamer, The Presidential party named in to-day’s HERALD were assigned a separate sleeping car at the Erie depot, Jersey City, last evening, and your corre- spondent engaged a berth in the next car, taking Ins ticket for Norwich, N. Y., where it was arranged the party should breakfast on the arrival of the train this morning. That arrangement was subsequently altered. The desire of the people in the various towns through which we passed to get a look at the President was strongly manifested. In most of them the trains aid not stop at all, and .the consequence to those who remained out under the fog and the dew up to a late hour at night must have been dis- appointing, tosay the least, Wherever the train did stop swarms of villagers of all ages, sexes and sizes surrounded the track and climbed upon the cars.in @ vain endeavor to catch a glimpse of THE GREAT TWO-TERM CANDIDATE, When we arrived at Turner's the passengers rushed out to get something for supper, but most of them had to return to the cars unsatisfied; the colored waiters all flung duties to the winds and came forth to greet the man who as they rightly or wrongly conceive has given freedom and protection to thelr race, The Presidentiai car, the Queen City, switched off singly with a special engine at Binghamton at half-past three o'clock A. M., and arrived within a mile of Nor- wich at twenty minutes to four, thus making forty miles in an hour and ten minutes, Here the engine halted half an bour to give the sleepers time to dress, aud allow General Porter time to attend to his arduous duties, after which the train moved into the depot at Norwich. Notwithstanding the early hour, the whole village had turned out to greet Grecley’s rival. The remaiuder of the route being narvow gauge, the party was compelled to change cars, and a few of the sightseers thus got a short timpse of the President. The car in which he now found himself was a mi iicent palace.car; it and the baggage car being the only ones attached to the engine, which was ver; decorated with the Stars and Stripes an banners, so that the remainder of the President's journey to and through this city was really pur- Sued in state, On board this car J first noticed A PERSON NAMED BROWN OR THOMPSON, who called himeelf a railroad superintendent or something of that sort, who insisted on forcing his unpleasant presence on the party, and made ‘ybody uncoiufo: table by his oifensive and in- t stupidity, It 1s quite probable that he won't any federal patronage this year or the next, 1 he can spare himself much trouble and anxiety by not looking tor it. At @ quarter past seven the train arrived at Washington Mills, and here it was met by a large jegation from Utica, headed by Mayor Buttertield Solgred people to band togetuer in @ hostile voup, wi a baker's dozen of Aldermen, As sooa a8 Utica’s representatives were safely on poard, the train coptinued on the route to Utica, Mayor Butterfleld was then sented to President Grant, and as the others came into the coach they were introdnced to the Presi- dent, Who shook hands with each, The President aan aWakencd from a nap to perform this opera- on. pre- TTERKIELD TO THE PRESIDENT. ney—We have come ina body as the re- utatives of the citizens of Utica to welcome the Magistr United the vies And to extend (@ yh beaadml ¢ a won Couneif or Utica held yesterday tt hich T have the honor ie preseat to y We hat you will enjoy your visit to carry away with you pleasant memories ot its people, who will accord you'a hearty welcome. A SOTTO VOCE SPERCH. President Grant bowed in response to Mayor Buittertield’s address, and remarked aside, “1 aun to be the guest of Ponator Conkling, | believe.” He then invited the gentiemen to take seats, and seated himself as he gianced over the resoluttot of welcome, adopted by the Common Coun esterday, Mayor Butterfield sat opposite to him’ and engaged in a brief conversa- tion, But soon gave his seat to Judge Bacon, who rode to Utica in the car, A few of the City Fathers were introduced to Mra. Grant, who, after a few remarks, gave up her seat to the gentleman and retired to her state room, where young Jessie Grant was taking a nap. Lieutenant Fred Grant seemed to be en- Joying his nap in the south end of the coach, and was only presented to a few of the excursionists ag the train entered the Utica depot, The tirst note of welcome was sounded by Duun’s battery, as the train entered the city. A moderately iarge number of eitizens were congregated in the depot yard. When the train Was stopped Sengior Conkling and wife entered the President's coach and greeted Mrs. Grant and child in their stateroom. Beiore the President left the coach he SMILINGLY REMARKED TO SENATOR CONKLING, ¢¥he Common Connell of Uuea appears to be’ al most as large a Neppistrye body as the one we hav in Washtupton. hope it is more orderly thah that one. penatgr Caukling eaygriod Mrs, Grant to her car- | Gazzan wt guce called gs @ Vovy upon bis all were jatroduced Mayor Butterfield | oe ; the Presiaetit offered his arti and to Hinks dnd the Rrechteit tered, rece inmeat ately to the Senator's house, while the carriage con the in which were seated Sen- ator Private Secretary Porter and Lieu- tenant rant, Waited the arrival of the Cee ‘Zouaves, headed by ni volunteered to ‘tal band, thered potsand all ha in the rear of the de oD tunity to see the President, As soon as a veterans saluted the party they marcel over Main street up: Genesee to Hopper, street and Senator Conkling’s resideuce. was 0 Cg ssident, who occasionally bowed and Iifted his hat to acknowledge the salutes of the ladies and gentlemen.

DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLES. Whereas it has been decided by the Chair that this mecting isan endorsory body, and notan adjournment of the Columbus Con vention; and Whereas no party is in the’ field recognizing our prin- ciples, now therefore the committee recommend — the mnectliig to consider the propriety of making a nomination for President and Vice President, upon the platiorm of the labor reform party, as laid down in Columbus. The report of the committee was received. A motion was made to add Mr. Kilyare, A PHILADELPHIA INTERNATIONALIST, to the list of delegates, which created inuch feeling, Mr. Kilyare denied that he was an Internationalist, and he was admitted. The report of the committee ‘was adopted. Mr. STEWART, of Pennsylvania, offered the follow- ing resolution :— Resolved, That the working classes of this country ha’ nothing whatever to choose between President Graut Horace Greeley; th dearest to labor t united in opposition thereto, for either candidate helps to let the country torget or i nore the issttes that most concern his progress aud happ ness. This was adopted, after discussion, Mr. Gaazan moved that the meeting proceed to | nominate a candidate for President and Vice-Presi- dent. Mr, Kilgore moved as a substitute that it is inexpedient to make nominations, and made a superb Greeley speech during the five ininutes to which each speaker was limited. Mr. Troup at- tacked the committee appointed to notify Davis and | Parker of their nomination, and made numerous charges against Mr. Kilgore. Mr, Kilgore toid him he nttered falsehoods. Troup was for a straight-out nomination, the finances could be secured to conduct the canvass, Mr. Beimonsnyder wanted unity, and did not approve of the attacks upon the committee—Messrs. Groom, Perett and Cameron. John Syme, of Pennsylvania, thought it injudicious to make nominations, Mr, Groom detended himself from the charges of Troup. Mr. Steward thought he could see the han of Greeley in Kilgore’s — resolution, and suggested as a substitute that “while our poverty and lack of time antl organization make it impossibie to present candidates for Pres- ident and Vice President, it is not too late to urge every labor reformer to stay at home rather than endorse President Grant or Horace Greeley. Mexsrs. Biissitt, Horace H. Day and McNeil spoke on the subject. The latter charged that this Convention ‘was an attempt TO SELL THE LABOR VOTE to the new demo > party, the Bourbons, and he hoped the representative of that party present (Mr. Blanton Duncan, of Kentueky) would wader. stand that the workingmen conld not be deceived nor controlled by sucl men as Brick Pomeroy, A vote was taken upon Mr. Kilgore’s subst.tute, | whfeh was tabled. A resolution calling upou the _deipbia on the 2uth of August was offered ws aesub- stitute for all other resolutions, Upon this Patrick | Logan, of the Twenticth ward, made a flerce apeech in javor of @ straight nomivation, and declared | that he was opposed to a bargain that would i BRING HOFFMAN TO THE SURFACE, and if Greeley and Hoffman ran on the same ticket he would stump the eDowell ask ate, for the reading of a letier Jovernor Geary, of Pennsylvania. ‘lis re- quest Visibly excited some of the delegates, who | cried, “No, no,” “What's the use wet it go over to next meeting,” | here * &e, The letter was read, and it di length the labor question, dectared ti necessary to send representatives of their own party to legislatures, Congress, &¢., urged =the convention to be in its — deliberations, as it held — the balance of power. Mr. Dony, who nad ofered the Why the det is, he not ne die drew the resolution. A motion to adjour! was lost, and tue Convention took ® ess at & quarter past six until eight o'clock. During the recess the reporter of the HERALD Was assured by Many delegates that the object of the icaders was to sell out the party to Grant. It was open); charged that a bargain had been séruck by whic! the administration was to furnish the funds to con- duct a workingmen’s campaign, and by putting in the fieid a third ticket, DRAW THE LABOR REFORM VOTE FROM GRERLEY and throw the election into Congress. For this service the administration Is to entorce the erght- hour law, it is said, During the evening recess a great Goal of caucusing was indalged in, and at eight o'elock the Chairman called the Conven- tion to order, At the evening session there were put twenty-two persons present.

Lost. Mr. McNeil fearing that the Convention was about to burst up, attempted to tuke up a@ collection to defray ex- pense, but was ru out of order, After bitter isputes the Convention instructed the chairman to call a nominating convention at Philadelphia for the 22d of August. The Convention adjourned in great demoralization a little before midnight. The Bolters in Council—A Vote by States—The Corpse of the Labor Reform Movement. The delegates who bolted before the Committee’ on Credentials made their report numbered thir- teen. They held a meeting in a back room, with Max Hedmond as Chairman. It wasa very noisy: one, Patrick Logan, of the Twentieth ward; Dennis. Grifin, Mr. Kane, of the Iron Mouldera’ Union; Colonel Gibbons and others participating. They denounced the other crowd in unmeasured terms and finally took avote upon the merits of Grant and Greeley. The votes of the States represente® were shown as follows :— Connecticut—Grant and Wilson. Pennsylvanta—Grant and Wilson. New York—Crant and Wilson. Missouri—Grant and Wilson, Virginia—Greeley and Brown, New Jersey—Grant and Wilson. Delaware—Grant and Wilson. Maryland—Grant and Wilson. The proceedings took the form of a burlesque and the meeting adjourned until the afternoon. Kane, Logan and GriMin were admitted to the regular convention in the afternoon, and when the bolters again assembled it was with: Coroner Young, who held an inquest over the bolters. The afternoon session was even more funnv than the first one, and the public were ad- mitted to the show, About seven the meeting re- solved itself into a convivial feshering but John Heckler, of Philadelphia, declared that the bolters in a few days will nominate @ ticket of their own. SENATOR WILSON. He Explains Concerning Know Nothing- ism by Branding the Alleged Extracts from His Speech as Pure Inventions, Wicked Forgeries, Absolute Falschoods. Boston, July 30, 1872 The following letter from Senator Wilson ex- plains itself:— “ Nartox, Mass., July 29, 1872. Mr. J. 0.
