THE COMING CONVENTION Scraps .of Literature Indited by Our Legislators and Governors. BLANTON "GIVING HIMSELF AWAY.” LOUISVILLE, August 26, 1872, Since the publication of the HkRALD's interview with Blanton Duncan, the number of letters re- ceived at the Bourbon headquarters here has in- @reased fivefold, They are pouring in now from every direction, and the two small States of Rhode ‘(sland and Nevada are all that have not been heard Jrom. All promise to send delegates and many have already held mectings and appointed them. Ycalied at the headquarters on Fourth street again ‘o-day and found Duncan excessively sanguine. THE CHAIRMAN DOWN WITH THE GOUT. Instead of being shown into the study, as before, the servant led me up stairs to the Colonel's bed- room. He was sitting in an easy chair by the side ef his bed, with one foot caretully pillowed in an- other chair. He was busy answering letters, as was also his amanuensis, “How ate you ?’’ he said, looking up with a pleas- nt smile as I entered and extending his hand. “Why, Colonel, you are not well ?” “No, ve got the gout. It’s hereditary in my family, but this is my first attack. It is the result ef excessive work and sedentary habits. I’ve con- ‘Gned myself closely to my room for the last six or eight weeks, working up this great movement, nd, as you see, my health has suffered in conse- quence. I'll be up before the Convention, how- ever. Business, you see, is going along just as if I ‘Was not sick?” Business did seem to be going on pretty briskly, fer the whole bed was covered with letters, which Be was opening. He would open one, read it, scratch a few words across the face of it and hand 4 to hits secretary, sometimes with some special instruction about which he was very particular and explicit. Sis “Well, Colonel,” said I, “what are the prospects of your vention now? Do you think it will be a success ?? “Why, dertainly, There's no doubt about it.” “Don’t you think the ding-donging of the opposi- tion newspapers has dhe you good 7” “Yes, it has given us newspaper notoriety; but, you know, we don’t covet (hat. (?) We mean to succeed by the aid of the people, not by the aid of the newspapers. Yvur letterin the HERALD seems to have set the press of the country mad. They ‘Wanted to talk about me before, but they had mothing to say. Your letter has furnished them with material, and strong material I think it was $68, $hough you did not get some of the best of the wotpers LO aay ee ere I explained thdt what I wanted was the gist of them—a few which would give some idea of the general run of the whole. I didn’t want only the strongest ones or only the weakest ones; I wanted the medium ones. With a kind of distrustful look he made a slight allusion to other portions of the letter, and intimated that there were some things in it which I ought not to have put in. ‘WISE, OF VIRGINIA, FOR TEMPORARY CHAIRMAN. “What arrangements have you made for the Con- ‘vention, Colonel *" “Oh, we’ve written to Wise, of Virginia, to be temporary chairman, but haven’t heard from him yet. I suppose he will accept.” “Where do you meet?” “In the Common Pleas room of the Court Honse. It 4s as large and as pleasant a place as I could find in the city. Besides, there will be place in the large rotunda and the halis of the building for the crowd that can’t get into the immediate room of the meeting. There will be thousands that can’t Ret in, and they always like to stand around ond talk, ou know. There'll be plenty of room at the Court se.” A a : THE COMING MUSE, * «pon't you think that the gratuitous ber Madge | ‘that Pid are now getting from the newspapers help bring the crowd ?” “Yes, but we don’t want that. There are too many coming now, There isn’t hotel room enough in the ctty for them, and I know by experleuce tae the people won’t throw open their houseg, I tri that during the meeting of the Commércial Con- vention, but they acted mighty mean about it and wouldn't do it," Colonel Duncan was chairman of the Committee of Arrangements of the Commercial Convention which met here in 1570, Ce 3 his efforts it was ® great success. He is undoubtedly good at such 4&4 HIS PRICE. Suddenly he broke, out with “Ha! cheap.” “What is it, Colonel ?”” ‘This fellow, who is a candidate for Congress in his district, writes that he won't sell out to Grant for less than five hundred thousand, He's cheap. My, price —you want to know my price ?”” hf “My price is ten millions.’’ THE CORRESPONDENCE, A HERALD full of letters selected from Blanton Duncan’s correspondence of any one day would astonish the public. There are are bushels of dis- ruption and discontent coming to the Bourbon headquarters here by every mail. The tone of these letters since I made the selections published im the HEravp of Thursday last has changed some- what and has become stronger and more coafident. ‘Those who long for a straight-out ticket have been encouraged by the assurance of strength which has ‘been given by the publication of the actual facts. ‘They see that there are others who think and feel as they do, and it bas made them bold to speak out where otherwise they would have remained silent. Out of the Immense batch which arrived to-day I will give some of the most gisty ones:— “NO GREELEY FOR ME.”’ A prominent official of Pennsylvania writes :— There are many of the party here who do most decid- edly oppose the idea of young for Greeley, and 1 think ‘weitld vote against him If there was a straight democratic ticket in the field. I see them every day and most of them ry. for me.” The Louisville Conventien certainly puta straight ticket in the field, with candidates of undoubted democratic antecedents and unbiemished character in the walks of lite. The idea of the great democratic party supporting Greeley is the reatest insult ever offered, and every man ought fo spurn it with contempt, I shall not vote for him in any event; for, as between Gre Grant, | shall take Grant. There are things in his life and career that [ can admire, but not ‘one in the career of Greeley, Ihave no doubt, then, that you should go forward, put a strong ticket in the field und upon principle take the chances. “If defeated let defeat reat at the door of those who have Invited it and sold themselves to the great.high pricst of political ambition. I shall be glad to hear from you and aid you so far as 1 can. BUCKALEW AND THE STRAIGHT-OUTS, Another Pennsylvanian writes :— On yesterday wo elected delegates to the Louisville Convention. * * We also appointed committees on organization and intend in September to hold a Conven- tion to noininate a county ticket and a member of Con gress. This will make the Greeley men tremble. We in- tend to cripple them in every way possible, and it Bucka Jew taker 1o Greeley publicly we will us’ our influence against him also. {don't know whether you think us right or not, but we don't feel like standing on the de- fensive all the time. “70 HELL WITH THE DAY BOOK.” An earnest, but victimized and rather profane old farmer from New York closes a iong letter wit h “To heil with the Day Book.” AN OUT-AND-OUT BOURBON, A Texas countryman writes :— The democrats of Texas cannot swallow Horace,” ti he did come all the way from bis far Houston, expenses paid, to make @ speech on “What I Know About Nothing,” ‘and did go on President Davis’ Dail bond tor $100,00, when millions could and woul have been deposited with the clerk it the exigency bh arisen.

He wants me to im- mortalize myself, He wants me to go back on the movement, declare for Greeley, elect him and be- come one of the grandest patriots in history.” “Who is it?” I asked. “He don’t send his name, but ne gives big initials and swears he is in earnest,” Colonel Duncan read the letter carefully, as he does all that he receives, and then handed it to me. It is a queer specimen, and deserves place among the records, The faiherty advice is exceitent:— Louisyiuue, August 20° 1 To Colonel Braxton Doxcan, ‘Chairman National Dono- ¢ratic Committee :— Covorxt—If_you know as Ido the deep dishonor, &c., 4c., Instore for those promoting Grant’s re-election oF opposing the liberal movement you will not be as earnest fo your convention, I regret very much that! cannot unvell you more than { do in this letter and pre- vious, because if I could open my heart and sho’ uu the Feality of my statements and how I burn to prevent you @ sinister fate and a degrading record in history. 1 be- lieve very sincercly you will hear my benevolent Gounscls and warnings, | There ean seem you, strange that one man anknown of you as well as in politics take 80 much interest for you, but long ago T know you of Feputation and your distinction, and am mortily to the utmiost to the Gourse) you have pursue since the Maltl- more Convention, knowing how it 1s prajudicial to the American people and #0 to yoursell.

THE DAY BOOK’S DEFECTION. “To what, Colonel, do you attribute the defec- tion of the New York Day Book ?” “To jealousy.”” “An! How 80 ?"? “Well, the paper and its managers wanted to be ut forward as the leaders of this movement, and didn’t see it; that’s all. I am not working for any person or paper, but for this great movement. They have been indignant at’me from the first for not seeing their greatness, and threw cold water on this thing even before I left New York. Dr. McEverie came to me while I was in New York, and advanced his theories in a very authoritative arty, They were that the constitutional amendments were utterly void, and that the nej had ought to be remanded back to his original position. I laughed at the idea, and no dount otfended nim by doing so, The talk tome from the start was that they were losing subscribers, who were going into the Greeley movement. That’s what's the matter. The paper has got batches of subscribers in spots which are going for Greeley and go it has to follow them or lose them. I ascribe the course of the managers in this matter to the fact that they were not put forward in the movement, when in reali We herons ane capacity so originate and let 8 0) us concern.”? i: Alp aAe SRPPERSONTAAY DEMOCRAT.

PREPARATIONS FOR THE CONVENTION. Colonel Duncan—You may say that the Com- mittees on Arrangements and Reception ve already been appointed, and that they consist of over one hundred of the best citizens of Louisville— men Of political influence and prominence, who are with me in this movement. We have sent out through the city a call fora meeting, which will be signed, by five hundred or a thousand names, when we will hold a mass meeting to appoint delegates tothe Convention. We've gota majority of the citizens pn ay “What do you believe Coke?” said he,'turning to his amanuehsis. “T believe we have,” said the amanucnsis. “Thos ag flocking over like fish.” L¥és," said Colonel Duncan; “the laborers are all pith ug." .. “I met two men this morning,” said Mr. Coke, “that [like had a quarrel with about it, but they have come over already.” “Who were they ?”’ eagerly inquired Colonel Dun- can. @“Well, never mind,” said the amanuensis; “I'll tell you all about tt sometime.” “One thing you can say,” interrupted the chair- man, “there are no defections from this movement, and the accessions are constant.” THE LOVISVILLE LEDGER. “Colonel, isn't the Ledger hedging? Don't you think it will come back to you yet ?” “No, I think not,’’ he said. “The Ledger is owned by two gentlemen who don't edit it, and who think that, in a business point of view, it is better to stay where they are.’? (This lets Colonel Dawson out. He was one of the originators of the Ledger, which was started to be the organ of the Bourbons of the State. He is Still its editor-in-clhnef; but it is @ Greeley paper.) TNE DUNCAN CAMPAIGN PAPER. Colonel Duncan starts his ‘‘straight-out” cam- poss paper next Monday, the day before the meet- ing of the Convention. It is to be called the True Democrat, and Colonel Blanton Duncan 1s to be editor-in-chief, In the mail which came while I was present be received a circular offering to sell him a press, CAMPAIGN BADGES. In the same mail he recetved a little paper box in which were cushioned away, bosom to bosom, por- trait hadges of the present opposing candidates for the Presidency. The manufacturer wanted the contract for making the badges of the “stralght- outs.” THE PEACE JUBILEE. “You might say,” again suggested Colonel Dun- can, “that they are getting along very poorly with their peace jubilee here. It has no friends. We are too strong for it.”” “Why, Colonel, are you not for peace 7” “Yes, we want peace. They have got John Quincy Adams down for one of the speakers, when he’s against Greeley. The jubilee was got up as a counter movement against this one of mine; but they have failed. Their weakness is indication of our strength. They want $20,000 to hag t it through and so far have only been able to collect $4,500. As the Louisville Commercial said the other morni: fr that isn’t enough to decorate the bridge.’ A TOUCHING EPISTLE. Just as I got up to leave the Colonel snatched up A piece of paper, and, after a little hasty scribbling, handed me the following, saying, ‘Here's By. com- plunents to Hurlburt, He wouldn't publish it him- self if 1 sent it to him so J send it to the HeRaL.” Tt was as follows:— Issue of the 21st received. Thank you for nothing, gory knight of the pen, whose deeds of blood and gallantry Will ive in history, Jockey of New York, be not too bold, For Horace, thy master, Is bought and sold. THE BOURBONS IN KENTUCKY. ‘The Bourbon movement has actually gained in Kentucky recently. It has not gained strength, | Probably; but the strength it already possessed ) among the hills and mountain fastnesses has been brought to a mutual Gig TI and is being organized. No doubt Kentucky will make a bij show in the Convention. I believe that Colonel Duncan expects fully four hundred thousand peo- ple to be present atthe Convention—four times as Much as the population of the city. All that is wiid and chimerical can be found at the headquar- ters on Fourth street, THE COTTON WORM AT WORK. MONTGOMERY, Ala., August 29, 1872, Reliable reports from all parts of Alabama repre- sent that the destruction of cotton by worms is more thorough than ever before. They have eaten the leaves and forms until the fields are bare as after a frost. The naked eondition of the plant reveals the fact that the mature fruitage is not so great aa usual at thls season Of the year. Fears of almost universal bankruptcy among the planters are entertained. No one expects the crop will equal that of last yeas Leonard Swett, of Illinois; Charles W. Britton, of Virginia; Samuel J, Tilden and General Carlos But- terfield, of New York; Samuel F. Cary, of Ohio; and J.B. Parmenter, of Troy. Mr. Cary ig on his way to Maine to take an active part in the canvass in that State. As an instance of repobuesn defection to the Greeley side the call for the meeting at Bridge- port on Wednesday evening is cited, 125 liberal re- publicans having signed it. A number of letters were received during the day enclosing the ‘‘doliar” subscription, which seems to have become & favor- ite vent for the patriotism of the mass of the Greeley party from all sections of the Union. The following letter on the subject presents a very valuable suggestion :— Esq, Cuaimman Rervsiican Nationa, Commrrrne Sin—I notice that the Grant party boast that they are rich and that Greeley’s triends are poor. They expect to Duy the election. Hus it come to this, that the will of the People can only be expressed through the purses of the Wealthy men} Every poor man’s pride revolts at the id preud news of this danger of monopolism fe coin @ Word) worse than monarchism, and let the “plain people” bear their champion, Horace Greeley. to power in deflance of money-bag tyrunny.

There was no business of interest transacted at the Grant headquarters, in the Fifth Avenue Hotel. The tollowing visitors were registered :—General Ww. Ss. pelsers General H. H. Weils, of Virginia; John Lynch, of Portland, Me., and Frank F, Weaver, of Connecticut. O’'CONOR SILENT. He Won’t Tell What He Knows About’ Refusing Nominations—He is Persecuted by Reporters and Cannot be Interviewed any More. The great political conundrum of the day is, “What is Charles O’Conor going to do about it?” Two or three despatches relating to that gentle- man’s supposed intentions, each almost contradic- tory of the others, appeared in yesterday's HERALD, One came from Albany and was to the effect that some nameless friends of Mr, O’Conor had given assurance to somebody, also nameless, that they Were able to secure his acceptance of the SYRACUSE HOFFMAN-GREELEY DEMOCRATIO NOMI- NATION for Governor of this State. Another came from Chicago, quoting a short letter from Mr. O’Conor addressed to somebody who is likewise nameless, and proclaiming his unswerving devotion to the Louisville movement, Still another came from Louisville giving Mr. Blanton Duncan’s contradic- tion of the rumor that Mr. O’Conor had deserted the “Bourbon straight” democrats, and telling what Duncan knows about O’Conor generally. Fully confident, from information previously re- ceived, that Mr. O’Conor WILL NOT ACCEPT the Gubernatorial candidacy at the hands of the Greeley amore and having no reason to be certain that he had’ written a letter either to Blan- ton Dune or to the nameless gentleman in Chicago, @ HERALD reporter endeayored to set all doubts at rest by obtaining a_ brief statement on these matters from Mr. O’Conor’s own lips. He accordingly proceeded to Mr. O’Conor’s office on Wall street at noontime yester- day. As he entered the ante-room he encountered |. the great lanzen coming from his private oMce with his hat on and prepared to go out. He was chat- ting with another gentleman and moving away when his attendant the ottice said, ‘There is & PE da aM Se cone ote Ir. aw! Wi tI Twon't uée reporters— back) said, “I told you Ican’t see reporters; but as he turned to pass the door zed the HERALD Ww and re man, came back and said, in a@ kindly tone, “Oh, you are the gentleman who was speaking to me at bes om at is it you want to know to-day ?”” EPORTER (producing @ copy of the HeRaLp)—I just want you to look at @ couple of short para- graphs here, Mr. O’Conor, and simply say whether ee true or false. . O’'Conor glanced at the paper and said, “On, Thave seen them, but Ihave made up my mind not to say whether those statements are true or not, There have been so many STATEMENTS THAT ARE UNTRUB in all the papers for the last few days, it would take y my time if I attempted to set them right. Besides you are the only newspaper man I ever permitted myself to talk to, and since you were speaking to me at ay ae Thave been persecuted by reporters; so that, while I would talk with you if I did with anybody, Ihave determined not to speak to members of the press on these matters any more. A dozen reporters have been here to- y On this very subject, but I have refused to see ny of them.”” EPORTER—Then, sit, I shall not press you to make an exception in my case. Meeting of the Central Campaign Com- mittee Last Night—A Committee Ap- pointed to Proceed to Syracuse—Pro- jected German Convention. The Central Committee of the German Greeley and Brown campaign organizations held a special meeting at the Teutonia Assembly Rooms last night. Dr. Feodor Mierson occupied the chair, in the absence of Theodore Glaubenskiee, the Presi- dent, at the opening of the meeting. Mr, Anthony Eickhoff, the chairman of the Ex- ecutive Committee, submitted a series of resolutions, prepared by the committee, definin, the position of the German liberal republicans and reformers in view of the pending campaign. The document was read by Mr. Charles Wendt, the sec- retary, and, after a brief debate, was adopted by a unanimous vote. One of the chief points of the resolution was @ condemnation of the course of the last Legislature in defeating the reform movement, especially the members of the administration party, who, on personal grounds, defeated reform measures. The document has also reference to a reform of the State School laws and the abolishment of local and special legislation. On recommendation of the Executive Committec a resolution was also passed that a committee should be appointed to proceed to Syracuse to present to the Liberal Republican State Convention these resolutions. A resolution was also passed direct- ing the Committee on Correspondence communicate with the German Greeley and Brown campaign organizations — throughout the State, calling upon them to send representa- tives to Syracuse while the State Convention is in session, to meet 2 convention with a view of agreeing upon a plan of joint action on the part of the Germans of the State during the pending cam- aign. The committee appointed to proceed to yracuse to present to the Liberal Yepabiican States Convention referred to includes the names Glaubensklee, Dr. Hartweg Gerke, Henry n, Ed Schlichting, Emil Unger, Moritz Evinger, 8S. Watermann, Dr. Mierson and others.

T. Barnum, on Tuesday evening at five o'clock, They occupied together a section of a drawing room car, and at Stamford Mr. Barnum “exhibited” Mr. Greeley to an admiring crowd gathered at the depot. Interested inaividuals on the train can- vassed the persons aboard for “Grant and Gree- ley,” and among the others the Philosopher himself was addressed, the canvassers not knowing bim. Mr. Greeley announced himself and an tntroduc- tion followed. The canvass resulted in Grant 91, Greeley 47, on the fence 10. The Philosopher received the result with apparent satisfac- tion, On arriving at Bridgeport Mr. Bar- num’s carriage was waiting at the depot, which was crowded with people, a8 is usual at that hour. The arrival of Mr. Greeley occasioned considerable stir among the crowd, and many pressed forward to gain a sight of him, and some were introduced and shook hands. Mr. Greeley was dressed in the conventional white hat, had on a linen duster, and carried an umbrella and satchel, After having seated himself in Mr, Barnum’s carriage, which turned to drive off, Mr. Greeley was taken to Wal- dmere, where Barnum kept him closely over night. In the morning of Wednesday Mr. Barnum and Mr, Greeley drove in a phaeton up to the city and to the Gel where they waited for the express from Hartford, on which came Mr. David Clark, the “ginews of war’ of the liberal republican party of this State. While awaiting the arrival of the train @ number of people collected about ‘he plaeton and attested their admiration by gazing at the illuatrtous: omens While this interesting in- spection was going on, Mr, George Beckwith, ae Surveyor, a noted temperance man, and very blu! and plain spoken, came along, and seeing the crowd and Mr. Barnum, went up to him and ad- dressed him thus:—‘Hello, Barnum! what have got here ? another humbug?” This sally occasioned a deal of amusement to those who heard it, and was laughed at alike by men of both ne as a good joke on Barnum, Subsequent; . Greeley and Mr. Barnum drove to the Fost OMfce, and while Mr. Barnum was engaged in tyne to his mail, a number of citizens jathered about the carriage and shook hands with r. Greeley. By far the larger number of demo- crats contemplated him with anything but favor- able looks from a distance, and one prominent member of that Ld refused to shake hands with —_ remarking that he was ‘waiting for Louis- viile, A lew republicans were presented to Mr. Greeley, and one of them remarked to him, “You can never be the President of the United States, Mr. Greeley,” to which the Hinge ie replied, “Well, I shall not have far to fall, furl have never been’ President yet’'—an answer which contained considerable phi- losophy. Mr. Greeley attends a clambake at Mills’ pace this afternoon, to which a select few of the vorably inclined are invited. To-night occurs the opening meeting of the cam- poten re—it being the fusior meeting of the beral republicans and democrats. The call was signed by 12v liberal republicans and as many dem- ocrats, and the meeting will be a mixture to recon- cile the two, While there are some aes names among the liberal republican ers the Bee aay of the party here repudiate the move- ment, and the signers Of the call will represent all of if not more than the defection from the republi- can ranks in this city. There are, on the other hand, many democrats who will not swallow Greeley, but are “waiting for Louisville ;” and these will take no part in the present canvass. Among the liberal Tepublicans are some men who have always been the particular detestation of the out-and-out demo- crats, who do not look with particular favor on this accession to their ranks. Among these repub- lcans are Colonel Dwight Morris, late Consul to Havre, who recently, branded Mr. Nathaniel Wheeler, the head of the democratic party here, a Mar in the public prints; Colonel William H. Noble, P. T. Barnum; Gideon Hollister, date Minister to. Hayti, and Dr, A. J. Jaques. These men are not re- garded as particularly desirable to the democratic arty, as their motives are called in question by he old-liners. This morning a Greeley and Brown flag was hung out on Main street, with no public demonstration whatever, and so quietly that few knew when it was done. It is expected that Mr. Greeley will not appear at the meeting to-night; but an arrangement will pee be affecte by which he will be near at land in the Atlantic House, and there it is proposed to serenade him and give him an opportunity to come out and re- md. There is less Greeleyism here now than there was @ month ago, and prominent men on both sides concede that it has seen its best days. MR. GREELEY'S MOVEMENTS. Mr. Greeley returned on the ten o’clock train yesterday morning from Bridgeport, and, with his valise in hand, wended his way to the house ofa oy. —, where he remained in industrious NEW JERSEY ELECTORAL CONVEN- TION.

Resolved, Thut the best interests of New Jersey demand the contintiance in power of the present adiniiistration, under which all our material interests have prospered beyond all precedent, and of a Congress that will be in harmony with that administration, and will carry ont it¢ policy of peace at home and abroad; a thorough enforce- ment of the laws, and the removal of abuses that have gathered about civil service during the last forty years, Resolved, That the great political parties ot the coun- try to-day are substantially the same as they were four years ago, whatever attitude the democratic party may to-day assume, or whatever candidates it may put in nontination, and we confidently point to the present pros- perous condition of our country asa strong argument for the continuance in power of the republican party, and we c y invite all honest voters of the State to co- Operate with us to this end. Resolved, That we pledge our best endeavors to, tmitate the example of our gallant brethren in, North Carolina, and up for the whole republican ticket a handsome jority in November next and cast our nine electoral votes for Grant and Wilson. The following from the State Committee was adopted after a lengthy discussion :— Resolved, That the basis of representation In all future Republican State Conventions in New Jersey be one dele gate foreach 200 votes cast, for the republican for President at the preceding Presidential ele one delegate for each fraction of two hundred votes ex- ceoding one hundred, and that each township and ward shall be entitled to one delegate. ‘The speakers of the day were Mr. Shipman, who, in a long speech, endorsed General Grant and the republican party, going over his war record aid characterizing him as great in peace as in war. Hon. Secretary Robeson was called for when the business of the Convention was concluded, and he, in @ lengthy speech, claimed for the republican party progressive ideas, and said that while there i8 @ wrong to redress, progress- ive truths to promulgate, party that will maintain power. He reviewed what had been done by the party, and predicted a victory for it in November. Some malcontents had said that the republican party was dead. Times may change, manners may alter, empires may rise and fall, but the great republican party will live, not only for the benefit of America, but for the down- trodden of all nations and peoples and tongues. The speaker described Grant as quiet but vigorou: astute, yet Simple; of broad views, but fixed pu pose; of noble aspirations and settled principles; a noble warrior, but with a heart open all that is good and- manly. With the courage of a lion and @ bravery for the right that constitutes true Grant stood as a worthy example of soldier and Christian, and he bad an- swered criticism by uniform good conduct, lide! by devotion, sncers by success and accusations by achievements. Mr. Robeson then reviewed the principal achievements of the last few years, and contended that it is necessary for the safety of the nation to keep the republican party in power, as he believed they would, by the triumphant election of General Grant in November. The Convention then adjourned. GENERAL M'OLELLAN AND THE DIAMOND DISOOVERIES. SAN FRANCIBCO, Cal., August 29, 1872. Generai McClellan declines any public reception and says his visit has no connection witn the Dia- mond Mining Company. He knows but very little about diamond matters, and is not even certain that the diamonds exhibited came from Arizona. A Few of Miss Manefield’s Favorite Articles— Very Little About “Poor” Jim and Nothing About Stokes—The Kind of People The auction of Josie Mansfield's furniture at the well known residence in West Twenty-third street came off yesterday. The attendance was non- descript. There were present members of the demt-monde, boarding house keepers, auction agents, furniture deale: ind but few respectable people, male or female. A Mr. Smith was also Present, and bought a great many of the best lots; but who this Mr. Smith was it is unnecessary to in- quire, as there is, it is satd, one of the Smith family at every auction, big or little. “Poor” Josie! Poor” Jim! was an oft-heard ex- clamation among the audience, The house did not look very poor, though. It was beautifully frescoed in the parlors, beautifully furnished all over, and the Cleopatra of city carnality was only too well “located” in a general way, as was plain to every eye. ‘The sale began at eleven o'clock A. M. in the back basement, then the front basement, then the base- ment hall; after which the crowd ascended to the fourth floor front room. In this last-named apart- ment, let it ve chronicled, that Josie’s mahogany rocker—Miss Josie’s favorite one, too—was sold for $36; albeit, let it also pe said for the com- fort of he who bought it, it was admitted on ali sides that it was worth $10 at the very most, Then the back room of the fourth floor, the third hail, the third story front hall room and the third story front room were all auctioneered without anything more Startling occurring than the selling of ‘poor’ Jim’s three whips—one the celebrated silver- mounted one, with which he used to ei! to drive the four-in-hand (sold for $10)—Miss Josie’s riding hat, which, horrible to say, only fetched $2 25, and the colored servant's livery hat, which was in a solemn manner purchased for sev- enty-five cents. In the third story back room everything went off in a commonplace manner; but in the third story back hall room a spring bed, said to be “poor” Josie’s little bed, was sold for $2 25, it having run all the way up from fifty cents to that ee figure. In the second story front hall room, Josie’s secrctatre, a very pretty little bit of furniture, reached $35, and her favorite lounge went 80 high as $19. In this room also was sold for $16 the Chinese lamp the Chinese ambassadors had resented to Mr. Fisk, and which that ardent lover gave to his beloved mistress, Two birds, called “Jim Fisk and His Mate,” were also sold here for the handsome sum of $16 each. The grand bed- stead on the second floor, front, was sold for $105, the La ‘4 bed bringing $15, A silver safe—N. C. B, Davidson's A No. 1—brought $95, and the pier mir- ror $100. A suit, consisting of a lounge, two arm chairs covered in two-color silk reps, original! bought for $480, was sold for $147 50, Yn the bac! room on this story Josie’s two Indian clubs were knocked down at $6, and these had the additional attraction of being marked ‘Josie Mansfield” in gilt letters, the enchasing thereof being by the en- chantress’ own beautiful hands sees, the recent retirement the doctors ordered her. ‘Three paint- ings—-'The Odalisque,” by Carl Veil, of Vienna; “Evening in the Tropics,’’ by Rosance, and “Good Night,” by Mier, of Munich—were sold for $175 and $38 respectively. Passing over the bathroom and the front hail, in the arlor, was ‘poor Jim's bookcase, @ very dsome article and which sold for $100; eto Josie’s ottoman for $7, and two bronzes— “Don Cesar” and “Don Juan’’—a birthday present of Venus to her victim, or, in other words, of Josie to Jim—which were tardily knocked down at $108, In the hall room on this story two engravings—the “Bristol”? and the ‘Providence’—were sold for $3 50. In the front parlor a suit, consisting of two Sofas, two arm Pe Aa chairs, all covered with crimson satin, mounted in Sévres and originally cone $1,500, were knocked down at $365; a mar- queterie cabinet, mounted in Sevres and ormola and originally costing $' was sold for $230; cen- tre table to match was sold for $145; a rosewood pianoforte, round corners, originally costing $850, was sold at $280, and the crimson satin covere stool at $21 60; an embroidered arm _ chair, the cover of which was made by the Indians at Niagara for the beautiful Josie, realized $72 50; a mounted marqueterie cabinet brought $200, and the two lace window curtains and lambrequins were given for $120, In the above enumeration only a few or the more prominent articles sold have been alluded to. It is said that the sale footed up over seven thousand dollars, Visitors were curious to see if any me- mentoes of Fisk or Stokes were to be seen, but ex- cept a few trifies there was nothing referring im- mediately to Fisk, and not even the veriest trifle calling Stokes to mind. No portrait or carte of either was to be seen. In fact, Josie had manipu- lated things well before hoisting the “red flag’’ of the auctioneer before her house, and except an occasional “little laugh” from the audience every- thing passed off in a highly respectable manner, A TORNADO IN ILLINOIS, CuIcaco, August 29, 1872, A Jacksonville, Il, despatch says:—A terrible tornado passed over this city and vicinity last night. About half of the roof of Capp’s woollen mills was torn off and a third of the roof of the Jack- sonville Home woollen mills.
