Probable Wife Murder. A Patereon, N. J., dispatch of April
13. says: r our months ago one Mc
Gione, who had given himself the name of Bropb), hired a house on the banks
of the Passaic in Paterson. The house
was a mere cabin, which had been put
on tne oia stone quarry under the hill,
ana in a lonely place on an unfrequented park or wagon road leading to
the valley of the rocks. Shortly after
Mcfilone moved hia family there, his
wife one night, after clearing away the supper table, took the pail and went to
the river shore, but a few steps away, to
get water lor morning, as was her usual custom. She did not return. The hus
band was soon afterward told by the children about "mother" going out for
water, and he guessed she would come
back and sent the children to bed, and went to bed himself ; but the wife and mother did not return, and suspicions were excited against him, as he tried to make it appear that she had gone off to Ireland. But the family was obscure, and after a talk among the neighbors the man moved off' and the woman was forgotten, until the body was found on Wednesday last, washed ashore opix-
site Passiic village, about seven miles.
by the river, from the town whence the
woman was missing. I he body was well preserved and bore evidence of foul play. A justice of the peace from
Lodi v as requested to hold an inquest,
but got a rough box, tumbled the bodv
into it, and, nailing it up, buried it. It was conjectured that McGlono moved to the lonely spot at the "swash," intending to murder his wife, knowing that her cries could nevar be heard above the roar of Passaic falls. The publication of the facts led to a disinterment on Saturday, and lefore a Paterson .jury, the woman's oldest boy's testimony pointed clearly to his father as the murderer. The body having been exhumed showed evidence of foul play, and the jury rendered a verdict against McGlone. Not having read the newspapers, he returned to l'aterson yesterdey, and is in prison. Behind this crime is a dashing widow at Long Island to whom McGlone haa puid attentions.
yew Stjle In Suicides. A most extraordinary attempt to commit suicide is reported from Sherborne, in England. A man employed as a fencer at Sherborne Castle was found by a woman in her kitchen sitting by the fire, with blood issuing from his mouth, blood being upon' the floor, and his neckerchief on fire. She asked him what he had done, and he replied that he had tried to blow his brains
out. Assistance was immediately ob
tained, when tho nozzle of a pair of bellows was found lying by his side. The
old man said he had only half done it; his head was too thick to blow off. It
seemed the would-be suicide had been carrying fusees and rock powder about
him, and bad drilled a hole in the noz
zle of a bellows, converting it into a
kind of small cannon, and inserting
the end of it into his mouth. He had
been addicted to drink, and had before threatened " to make a hole in tho water."

The Cincinnati onrention. From frank Ltmllo'i Ia,pr.
It is beginning-to say the least of it to be palpable that the idea of the.Cin cinnati Convention is more than popu
ir. i mm political portents indicate a healthful storm to follow that Convoca
tion, which if properly directed will
sweep tue nation. Not a narrow current that bJm 11 merely carry a State or a section, with the pushing help of selfish, corrupt party engineering, but a
grana, oia-ume uprising for the Union and the Amended Constitution and the
New Nation; an awakening such as that which followed the fall of Sumter.
i ininkuiat the tremulous tactics of
the Military Ring and tho empty abuse of the Hing Preis, aa leveled against Cincinnati, furnish proof that the pure and simple office holders and office hopers see the clans gathering who are to draw the line of demarcation, at Cincinnati, between that handful and their narrow aims, and those of a great peo pie, who are yearning for the complete restoration and progress of a common
country. A noble patriotism, when
once it fully stimulates the free and generous masse, cannot fail to ma Up
short work of all the machinery and prejudices (which is all that there is of the Military Ring und its Satellites) left by the war all the discuatinir and
needless divisions, kept alive by designing men only for personal nurnoses. be
tween the public which represents alike
the patriotic sentiment of all Liberals, whether called Republicans or Demo
erat.
It is impossible for the neonle to close
their eyes against the fact that the time
has come to reunite the sections, and to nut down all wicked and silly agitators. We have been divided long enough. The Reconstruction Acts are accepted.
All of the aggressive mission of the Re
publican party has been fulfilled. A
New isatiou is born. The growing sentiment is, let us get rid of the old dan-
gerous barnacles, and go ahead in the ways of statemanship and peace. Let us first see to it all of us, North and
South, Republicans and Democrats that we lay Ftrong and deep thefoundatious of a patriotic and wise American party. After that is done, and well
done, we may afibrd to differ upon new and harmless issues. But, until this work of National restoration is wiselv
achieved beyond all question, all else
must be held subordinate thereto. We must have men adapted to the new
era the Grant wing of the Republican party does not comprise such ! They stand out as the men of the President
of Section and of Faction, when contrasted with the grand army of National
progress. It is vain to deny this fact. Abuse ctnnot destroy. Prejudice will not cloud it. The machinery of the Office-Holders' Philadelphia Convention must submit to, or be trrn into fragments by it that is, unless Cincin
nati shall throw uway the noblest opy . r i .

This movement is no personal quarrel with Genera' Grant. It simply means that he shall retire on his military laurels, his money and other rewards, and make way for new ideas, and for men whose experience and prestige commend them as statesmen to the whole country old names, trained in civil
government, of well established civil
characters and political attainments.
whom we all know and can all trust.
So far from being a third pai ty or a war against the Republican party, Cincinnati proposes to fuse all loyal elements into the Republican ranks. To solidify
and nationalize the Republican party here in the North ; to teach it better things than eternal sectional political war and prejudice. To inspire in it higher hopes than are bounded by Wall
staeet, and a nobler ambition than to
cling like hyenas about the graves of
the slaughtered and bankrupt South.
and the dead bones of the Chicago and New York Democratic Presidential
Conventions of 1864 and 1868. We
propose to live in the future and not to
die with the past. We are done with mounting guard with forming mili
tary sectional lines. The simpletons are few who really think that pickets are needed to warn us of the anDroach
of the defunct Southern Confederacy.
It has blown its last bügle, sounded its
last trumpet. We propose at Cincinnati to solidify the Republican party, aUo, in the South not by carpet-baggers and bayonets, but by taking hold of the hearts of their people with that
strong American love for our common traditions which still burns in their
souls. Only the trade of politics now divides the sections. The st-uggle of sectional war had a mighty heart in it
which beat high and strong. Sectional trading in politics, on the other hand.
it the low, sneaking and base thing which all the tyrants of mankind hau with delight, because in that ignoble
direction they behold our Democracy tumbling into faction, dismemberment, anarchy, chaos, despotism. Even if General Grant proposed to carry out all the object suggested by the Cincinnati Convention as he does not it would be impossible for him to secure confidence enough among the sections to harmonize and help forward this new mission. lie has gone too far in the opposite direction too far in his sectional policy, too far in the bad work of heaping power, honor and trust on corrupt, arrogant, inefficient and contemptible men ; too far in the by no means light thing of belittling the exalted chair which he ungracefully fills. The heart that finds its echo in the Barty and sectional fury of Hon. Mr. torton, its exponent in Tom Murphy, and its expression through ".Tones," can awaken no response with the promoter of the Christian work laid out for Cincinnati. Indeed, it is the personal sectional ton of the President and of his advisers, quite as much as any other cause, which gives birth to the Cincinnati Convention. I stood near Mr. Lincoln when he
made hia last public speech ia Washington, after the fall of Richmond. Spaking of reconstruction, he said: "We can't have chickens if we smash the egg!" After the band had g.ven Yankee Doodle, Old A'te remarked that he had consulted the Attorney General as to whether the American army had finally captured "Dixie." "Having received an affirmative opinion," con tinued Uncle Abe, "I now move that the music gives us ' Dixie,' as our property." And so the struins of "Dixie'' and "Yankee Doodle" were blended, on the first return of peace, and at the request of Abraham Lincoln. Now that reconstruction is settled, it is fat Cincinnati to execute that teste ment of the martyred President. Another four years of nractical an.
archy, and it may be too late to restore
the tone of the nation. In that von t
the well known prophesy ef the English Premier will be verified: "With
the close of the American war and the debility of a forced reunion, begins the
downfall of the boasted Republic."
J UNira. West Virginia for Judge Chase. Parkirsbiio. W. Va., April 18. At conferenceof loading Liberal Renubli-
cans and liberal Democrats held in this city to-day, i was resolved that the lib
eral llepublicuns of West Virginia who
may attend as delegates the liberal Republican Convention at Cincinnati on
the 1st of May, 1S72, be requested to use all honorable means to secure the nomination by that body of Chief Justice Chase for the Presidency. A similar resolution was adopted requesting the liberal Democrats who maybe in attendance as delegates to the reunion and Reform Convention which meets at the same time and place, to use their influence for the nomination of the Chief Justice. A platform was adopted liberal in its character, which briefly covers the following propositions: The perpetuity and sovereignty of the American Union ; A 1 A l! f I 1 '
me restoration oi local Bell-government; the preservation and co-ordination of the three departments of the governments-executive, legislative and judicial ; the acceptance, in good faith of the three late amendments to the constitution ; the adjustment of our tariff laws to a revenue standard, with such discriminations only as the general interests may require ; amnesty for all past political offenses; the protection of the rights of labor; a speedy return of the currency to a specie standard ; the accession of neighboring States when it can be done without interference with international obligations and without force or fraud ; tho protection of Amer
ican citizens, whether native or naturalized, from the despotism of foreign governments, and the inviolability of the national debt. The platform concludes with an appeal to all patriotic citizens to unite to protect the union of the States, the righu of citizens, and for the restoration of the peace, progress and prosperity of the entire people. Overthrow of the Kepnblican Party. The Burlington Gazette publishes a letter written by the late Senator Grimes, of Iowa, in 1871, and addressed to Judge Maon. The letter predicts the entire overthro v of the Republican
party in ana assigns as reasons the entire failure of the radical scheme for the reconstruction of the North ; the resolve of the radicals to perpetuate as long us possible the passions of the civil war ; their inexorable resolution to maintain an enormous tariff; their persistent attempts to force the annexation of Spanish Catholic negro states ; and the corruption which is reaching everywhere in legislation in the shape of jobs, subsidies, and fraudulent claims, and in the administration in the shape of Indian land fraud-, Wail street gold-corners, etc. The letter indiciles Dlainlv ihnt. if
the life and health of the writer had been spared, he would have entered vigorously into the movement now almost consummated for the overthrow of the abuses of which he complained. Consternation in Administration Circles. Washington, April 19. The liberal Republican call for a State Convention in Pennsylvania, and a delegation to Cincinnati, has, next to the defection of Gov. Palmer, of Illinois, ciused the greatest consternation in administration circles here today, from the fact that it comes from a State that the Grant party must carry to win the electioa. If the liberal movement becomes as formidable in Pennsylvania and Illinois as It now promised, the Grant men here concede the loss of thoe States, and the success of the liberal ticket.
Tns New York World closes a highly commendatory editorial notice of the Cooper Institute Liberal Republican demonstration as follows : " If this great and spirited meeting is a foretaste of Cincinnati, the Democratic party can well afford to wait, and watch. It will put no obstr action in the way of a movement which seems to stand on so strong abais. But it must nevertheless reserve its final judgement until the present hopeful anticipation shall ripen, by the progie s of events, into established facts."
Rnsst Paper says of the Liberal move ment in Kansas: We mean business. There is no going back, and we shall expect the Cincinnati Convention to act with promptness and vigor by placing a distinctively Liberal Republican in the field. To go to Cincinnati and make no nominations, would be worse than not going at all."
