TUESDAY, MARCH 26, 1872.

The Cincinnati Convention—A Silly Plot and Foolish Alarm. The rumor that the Cincinnati Convention is to be taken possession of by the Grant men, is too thin for the most foolish to believe. That the federal officeholders would do it, if they could, there can be but little doubt but that they will, there is very great doubt. That tliere was a movement of that kind 011 hands by the "bread and butter brigade," we suppose is true, and its truth is shadowed forth in the following from the New York Herald:

What the friends of Grant should do is to qo to Cincinnati. We are told that it is to bo a "conference" of Republicans. Well, if it is to be a "conference," let the Republicans attend in a body. There is no reason why it should not be a full conference. Let Cameron and Morton and. Carpenter and Conkling, and the rest of the leaders, with their followers, go to Cincinnati and "confer" It will do thorn no harm. The Queen City of the West is noted for its beauty, its hospitality, its delicate native wines, and corn-led pork and belligerent newspapers. Let there be a fair "conference," with the party fully represented. Mr. Sumner can make his oration, Mr.

St.,

Schurzcan repeat his devotion

to that German government which was anxious to hang him twenty years ago, Mr. Fenton can shake hands with everybody, Mr. Greeley can tell what he knows about farming, Mr. Trumbull can recite his experiences as a politician and his conversion two years ago—and the Herald will •see that the orations and debates are well reported. The Conference over, nothing will remain but for the "conference" to take the sense of the convention and nominate U. S. Grant for rc-clection. This will be a good ending for Cincinnati, a good beginning for Philadelphia, and an auspicious ouening of what promises to bo the most exciting and important canvass since that of "Tippecanoe and Tyler too,"over thirty years ago.

Tli is is pretty bold, but it will not win. None are opposed to the Cincinnati Convention, but those who fear it. It will be composed only of Republicans of the real, true, genuine Republicans who have not sold out to the Grant party, and who will not sell out for all the bread and butter owned and controlled by the Grant administration. The Cincinnati Convention will he the Republican Convention, where will he gathered all the earnest and conscientious Republicans who attend conventions. It is not expected that any Federal officeholders will be in attendance. Postmasters, Revenue Collectors, Guagers of whisky, Route Agents, el hock t/cuns ornnv, are not expected to be-there. Indeed they are'not invited, and will not .headmitted if they knock at the door.

None but independent Republicans men who would rather he right than he President, will assemble at Cincinnati on the 1st. day of May—men who have no masters, who obey not the crack of the patty whip in the hands of demagogues, and belong to n& corrupt rings. Men who are iu favor of reform, of amnesty, of economy and honesty in high places, and who are decidedly, firmly, and persistently opposed to the renomlnatiqn of U. S. Grant.

In referring to this Convention the New York Tribune says: The Convention to be hold at Cincinnati on the first day of May is to be a Republican Convention. Neither the Grant nor the Democratic party can participate in its deliberations. The nominees will be Republican, and it will then be the pro.vinceofthe people to determine whether or not to elect them. No mail's vote, who may choose to give it, will or can be rejected. The inquiry as to what may have been his views in the past will not be made. Although all Republicans favorable to the movement are invited to attend, it is expected, of course, that the representatives of the different States will meet separately, and determine for whom the votes of their respective States shall be given, as is the case in all National Conventions. This will put it out of the power of those who might contemplate mischief if it were simply amass meeting.

Shoddy SelNConricted.

Mr. Thomas Murphy testified before the Custom House Committee that he paid money to defeat the election of Horace Greeley as a delegate to the State Convention from the Eleventh Assembly District, and described the arrangements which he made for that purpose with a man named Bennett, who professed to control the primary meeting "Bennett told me what he could do, and toM him that any arrangements Bliss 'made with him I would see were carried «mi. I rocnlioet pimply and distinctly that I paid$400 to Mr. Bliss to hand to Mr. Bennett fdr that purpose."

And this is the same "Tom. Murphy" whom General Grant so beslobbered with Presidential praise, in a letter to him accepting his resignation as Collector of Customs of New York. The President jyarted official relations with him in all U&he eudearing terms of confidential relationship. Tom. had presented him with the cottage at Long Branch had '•'-furnished him imported brandies and ^cigars, and driven with him behind fast .horses, and they loved each other. Soon ^companions.

What

influence having been

brought to bear upon Governor Palmer of Illinois to induce him to extend a pardon to one of the Chicago Alderman who had been convicted of receiving bribes, the upright Governor rather astonished the Alderman's friends by informing them that the very circumstances urged to procure a pardon for the offender afforded (lie strongest reasons why the greatest penalty allowed by the law should be carried out iu his case. In a government like ours,he said, a man elected toa public station who so acts as to destroy the confidence of the people is afar more dangerous criminal than the one who takes a unit of clothes to cover his nakedness, or a loaf of bread to satisfy his hunger. He could not understand why the Alderman, who was a man of means, with an interesting family, shbuJd have improperly taken money but he believed that an intelligent man, with the strong motive of a loving wife and innocent children to restrain him, who is convicted of such an offence is pre-eminentl asuitable object for punishment.

is unusual for him, it is said of

Senator Sumner that he suggested the idea that Grant's withdrawal would put an end to the Cincinnati movement. It is said that as an inducement for him to do so, he having had all the glory of the Presidency by his one term service, that he would be restored to the position he vacated, the Generalship of the army.

President Lincoln and Reconstruction. The April number of the Galaxy magazine contains a notable paper by Hon. Gideon Welles, ex-Secretary of the Navy, on the measures which were adopted by the Government, atter the fall of Rich mond and the successes of Gentfral Sherman in North Carolina, to re-establish the Union and promote peace. As ho authentic account has even been given of the occurrences of that importaut period, this quasi-official statement of Mr. Lincoln's views is interesting, and will serve to remove the rumors which have grown out of prejudice, and to show tne soundness of Mr. Lincoln's positions with regard to reconstruction, as well as the comprehensive breadth of his statesmanship.

The most important disclosures made, by Mr. Welles are with reference to the Cabinet meeting which was held on the 14th of April, 011 the evening of which day Mr. Lincoln was assassinated. The session of the Cabinet on that day was chiefly occupied with the subject of our relations wfth the rebels. As Mr. McCulloch, the Secretary of the Treasury, was considerably embarrassed with regard to permits and traffic, Mr. Stanton proposed that communication should be reopened by his issuing a military order authorizing and limiting traffic. Mr. Welles suggested, in place of this, that the President should issue an Executive order for opening ports to trade, and prescribing therein the duties of the several. Departments. The President, however, referred tiie whole subject to the Secretaries of the Treasury, War, and.Navy, and said he should be satisfied with any decision at which they arrived. At the close of the session, Mr. Stanton announced that he had drawn up, and he handed to the President, a rough draft of a plan for establishing civil government and preserving order in the rebel States. This gave the President an opportunity of expressing bis views 011 the subject, and, as these have not been given to the gublic before in such an authorative form, we reproduce them from Mr.-,Welles' memoranda:

He hoped there would be no persecution, no bloody work, after the war was. over. None need expect he would take any part in liangiug or killing those men, even the worst of them. Frighten them out of the couutry, open the gates, let down the bars, scare theai off, said he, throwing up his hands as if scaring sheepi Enough lives have been sacrificed. We must extinguish our resentments if we expect harmony and union. There was too much of a deeire on the part of some of our very good friends to be masters, to interfere with and dicate to those States, to treat the people not as fellow-citizens there was too little respect for their rights. He did not sympathize in these feelings. Louisiana, he said, had framed and presented one of the best Constitutions that had ever been formed. He wished they had permitted negroes who had property, or who could read to vote but. tins was a! questiou which they must decide for themselves.

Yet some, a very few of our frienus, were not willing to let the people of the States determine these questions, but, itt violation of first and fundamental principles, would exercise arbitrary power over lhem. These humanitarians break down all State rights and Constitutional rights. Had the Louisianians inserted the negro in their Constitution, and had that instrument been in all other respects the same, Mr. Sumner, he said, would never have excepted to that Constitution. The delegation would have been admitted, and the State all right. Each House ot Congress, he said, had the undoubted right to receive 01* reject members the Executive had no control in this matter. But Congress had nothing to do with the State Governments, which the President could recognize, and under existing laws, treat, as other States, give them the same mail facilites, collect taxes, appoint Judges, Marshals, Collector etc., subject, of course, to confirmation.

The discussion then turned upon Virginia, and the recognition of Pierpont as the legitimate and rightful Governor of the State. Upon this point there was a wide divergence of views, which resulted iu the President directing Mr. Stanton to take the document and have separate plans presented for the two States—Virginia and North Carolina. He was very earnest in impressing upon every member of the Cabinet the importance of the subject before them, remarking that this was the great question pending, and that the Cabinet now must begin to act in the interest of peace. This was the last expression ever made on the subject by Mr. Lincoln. That evening he was assassinated.

Mr. Johnson accepted the situation as Mr. Lincoln left it, and undoubtedly tried in good faith to carry out the plans of his predecessor, but, unfortunately, neither Connress nor the people had much confidence in Mr. Johnson. The latter was unalterably opposed to negro suffrage, and this soon brought on a collision between himself and Congress. The breach gradually widened, resulting eventually in the impeachment trial. As the outgrowth of this antagonism, Mr. Lincoln's wise aud prudent opinions with regard to amnesty and reconstruction were fast lost sight of, and Congress, without really iuteuding to do so, fastened upon these States the carpet-bag Governments, with their attendant train of miseries. Had Mr. Lincoln lived, all these misfortunes would have bten spared, since Congress and the President would have acted together, aud, hence,might have easily adopted a moderate course. Anting contrariwise, as Congress aud Johnson did, both were driven to extreme measures, from which the South is suflfering'to-day. If Mr. Lincoln had liv&f, tf^slttiKild have been spared the recital of both Ku Klux outrages and carpet-bag frauds, and North and South, in the six years which have intervened since his death, might hav& beeu in complete harmony, and that, toq, without losing any of the beneficial reforms which have been secured. So, too, the present disaffection iu the Republican parfey would not have existed for that: *TO^rgely pyj of the

imposition of disabilities upon the Southern States, of which Mr. Lincoln more than once expressed his disapprobation. In the light of current events, it is easjT now to. see wherein Mr. Lincoln was right, and that his counsels, if followed, would have produced harmony in the whole county, and would have restored peace and order in the Southern States. The opposite course, for which nobody but Wilkes Booth is, perhaps, to blame, has only provoked conflicts and dissension.-, and exposed the South to the iniquitous practices of ignorant and depraved men.

It is, perhaps, even now too enrly lo write an impartial history of the events of the period between the fall of Richmond aud Mr. Lincoln's death, hfi.t the contribution which Mr. Welle-* i.usiuii'de proves again that this man, who ro e, without advantage of education, and out of poverty and the rude life of the frontier, to the highest place in the nation, was one of the most comprehensive and enlightened ^tat» smen the country has ever produced.
