Greeley Cordially Indorsed-No Nominations Wanted. NASHVILLE, May 9.—The Democratic

State

Convention assembled at the Capitol to-day noon. Delegates appeared from every county in the State. The Convention was organized by the selection of B. J. Lea, of Hayward, as President, aud the appointment of other officers.

John C. Brown was nominated by acclamation as a candidate for re-eleetion for Governor.

Resolutions were adopted as follows: 1. Indorsing the Administration of Governor Brown. 2. Providing for the appointment of a St.'.te Executive Committee. 3. Recognizes as tiie cardinal points of Democratic faith the following: The preservation of local State Governments against Federal encroach men and centralization of power the equality of ali men before the law, and equal participation of all citizens in the rights and benefits of the Government the subordination of the military to the civil authority the inviolation of the right of habeas corpus] the purification of the corrupt Civil Service of the Government economy in the expenditures of the Government, a'nd a faithful compliance with its obligations the preservation of National honor at home aud abroad the union of States with all the guarantees of the Constitution respected. To carry out these principles we are ready to co-oper-ate with all good citizens in the pending Presidential contest, irirespective of party.

The following is the fifth resolution: 5. Inasmuch as the Liberal Republican Convention held at Cincinnati has presented to the country the itnes of Horace Greeley and B. Gratz Brown as candidates for President aiftl Vice President, pledged to maintain and enforce the doctrines above enunciated and having invited the co-operation of ail patriotic citizens in their support, we deem it but the part of patriotic duty to declare that, in the contest now well nigh upou us, said nominees deserve the support of every patriot in the lawd, as against a ticket representing the principles, policies aud practices of the present Federal Administration and, while reaffirming our purpose aud desire to preserve the integrity of the Democratic party, we nevertheless declare in our behalf and in behalf of the people we represent that with the lights before us the presentation of candidates for the Presidency and Vice Presidency in the approaching contest by the Democratic party of the nation would be unwise, unnecessary aud exceedingly dangerous to the welfare of the people at lar«e.

From the N. Y. Evening Post—Telegram. WASHINGTON, May 7.—A9 many persons believe that Mr. Sumner has indorsed the nomination of Mr. Greely, it is proper to say that he has not siguitied any intention of not abiding by the result of the Philadelphia Convention. Mr. Sumner believes that the Greeley movement is formidable, and that it v\ill be endorsed by the Democratic party through its National Convention but he also believes that victory is still within the reach of the Republican party if the Philadelphia Convention acts wisely. The solution of the political problem now before the country, he says, is for President Grant to withdraw his candidacy before the Convention, and thus restore harmony in the ranks of the party, and unite all dissatisfied elements in support of a nomiuee, and thereby bring victory fb the party in November.

From the Evening Post—Editorial. It is evident that the Republican party is drifting into dangerous waters, and needs steadier pilots thau those who have seized the helm since the last National electional. If the riugs which seek to control it will not tolerate criticism, they must at least regard facts. If no candidate had beeu forced upon the party as a lest of allegiance, and no obnoxious rings had usurped its management, the Republicans would have been united, with the assurance of an overwhelming victory next November. What the Republican party should do is to demand the abandonment of idols and rings, aud an open contest for candidates who are not em harassed by doubtful associations. If they succeed in this effort, and restore the liberal and enlightened principles which directed them-fouryears ago to their platform, they can govern the country for an indefinite period.

Mr. Greeley and his Style of Dress. The upholders of personal government a fleet to laugh at Greeley because he wears a white overcoat and a broadbrimmed hat and has a lingering attachment for aswallow-tail coat. They affect to think that on account of these peculiarities Greeley should not be elected President.

Objections of a similar kind were made against Lincoln in 1S61. The ungainly style and not handsome features of the martyr President were ridiculed and caricatured, just as Greeley's style aud dress are now. But caricatures and ridicule did not prevent honest Abe from being elected by an overwhelming majority.

The earnest Republicans who were for Lincoln then are tor Greeley now. The people do uot feel any need forau Adonis in the Presidential chair, but they do want an honest man. Greeley's white coat and broad-brimmed hat will last him through his one Presidential term. Unlike cigars, bull pups?, aud demijofcns, the supply will not need coutinual renewing and besides, he pays for them himself.—-V. 1'

BERLIN May 10.—Prince Bismarck has not yet recovered from his indisposition although his physicians entertain the hope that by totally abstaining from the active exercise of his official duties for a time, and retiring to his estates in the country, he may enjoy undisturbed ease and complete restoration to health may be effected. His disease is announced as insomnolency or sleeplessness, induced by the excessive mental and physical exertion to which the Premier lias been subjected in consequence of the arduous duties of his office for upwards of a year past.

LONDON, May 11.—A rumor is in circulation here to-day, to the effect that the British Ministry have finally decided to withdraw the Euglish case already submitted to the Geneva Board of Arbitrators, and to retire from arbitration altogether. This rumor is received with general credit in well-informed circles.

NEW YORK, May 11.—A Herald's special cable from Madrid says: The downfall of Sagosta's Ministry is immiment. The apparent want of vigor and the reactionary tendencies of Senor Sagobta, made him unpopular with all parties, and strong influences has been set to work with the King to affect his removal. With him, all his present colleagues will go out to give place to anew ministerial combination, under the leadership of Marshall Serrano. As soon as the Carlist revolt is suppressed, Serrano will return to Madrid and choose members for the new Cabinet, of which he will be the Minister President.

NEW YORK, May 11.—The condition of Buchanan Reid, the poet, who has been lying dangerously ill at the Astor House for some days past, was unchanged last night, aud the hopes of his recovery are still very slight.

A tire in Tarrytown, Westchester county, yesterday, destroyed thirteen buildings, including the freighting establishment of A. Stoots, hotel of Geo. Shoemaker, lumber yard of Guntz & Nore, aud a store of Walter E. Martin. The loss will reach $75,000 partially insured.

The pedestal, now being made in Scotiand, is S feet 4 inches in length.

NEW YORK, May 11.—Bonner gave his young stallion Startle, a trial in Prospect Park yesterday afternoon, when he trotted a mile in the remarkable time of 2:19£. This is tue fastest time made by any stallion of any age. Startle is not yet five years old. Commodore Dodge, Robt. Fletcher and SimeonHoagland acted as judges and gave out the time as follows: First quarter, 34£ sec. half a mile, 109 sec. three-quarters, 143\ sec. and a full mile, 219^ sec. Startle is a brother in blood of the renowned Dexter.

NEW YOKK, May 11.—A Tribune's Washington special says: It is evident that the only hope of an early adjournment of Congress lies in the abandonment of the tariff bill, now pending in the House. Judging from the slovv progress that has been made with the bill, it will take until the lstof January to pass it through the House. A fortnight would be a short time for the Senate to act upon it, and another week would be consumed in harmonizing the disagreeing votes of the two houses.

The desire for an adjournment before the Philadelphia Convention meets with so strong an approval that it is possible that after another week the debate on Dawes' bill will be dropped. A short measure of the tariffs and tax reductions were crowded through by the suspension of the rules on Monday. In view of the probability of this course beiug pursued, most of the members are now preparing for au adjournment on the 4th of June.

NEW YORK, May 11.—The Times' special says the Committee on the District of Columbia yesterday formally agreed upou a report in the matter of the District investigation. The report was signed by seven of the nine members of the committee aud entirely vindicates the Governor and Board of Public Works from the malicious charges against them. Roosevelt will make a miuority report for the purpose of showing, be says, that Radical plundering has been a great deal worse than Tammany plundering.

At a late hour last night, Phelps, the jeweller, who was shot by a burglar at his residence on Sixth Avenue, was sinking fast.

Greeley at Present. NEW YORK, May 7,1872. AFTER THE SURPRISE.

I find that people are beginning to think more seriously of Greeley's nomination and prospects than they did immediately after they were startled by the fact that he had been put up at Cincin liati as a Presidential candidate. I re member the feeling that was aroused here in 1860 amxrng the Republicans when the news was flashed from Chicago that Mr. Liucoln, instead of Senator Seward, had been nominated for the Presidency. Nine out of ten of them were disappointed, disgusted, chagrined mortified. The great statesman of New York, famous for twenty year*, had been set aside t: give place to an Illinois lawyer of eccentric peculiarities, who was"almost wholly destitute of political experience, and whose name lrad but recently been heard of outside of the limit of his own State. Not a few men who had previously been Republicans deserted the party in disgust, and some of them were determined to take revenge upon it for its maltreatment of Mr. Seward. When the "rail-splitting" excitement began, still others of the Republican sort broke off, unable to endure such tomfoolery, even to help the cause of tin "great rail-splitter" who had been nom inated over their favorite statesman. But the Republican party grew rapidly among the people, notwithstanding all this and in November the vote of the State of New York was cast for Mr. Liucoln.

I believe it would not be too much to much to say tiiat three-fourths of the Liberal Republicans here were dumbfouuded when it was aunoun.ced last Friday, that Horace Greeley had beeu nominated. The Grant portion was mirthful and happy, for they believed that Greeley would easily be defeated, and the majority of the Liberals were mortified, for they believed that their only hope of success lay with Charles Francis Adams, the experinced statesman. As for the Democrats, they seemed completely nonplussed, and were unable to tell what at titudethey must now take toward theLib eral Republican movement and its nominee. There was a great deal of hilarity all around, and many people, unable to credit the news, looked on the report as a joke at the expenseof the Cincinnati Convention. Greeley is regarded here as a very odd personage, odd in his person and style, in his ways and habits, as well as in his opinions and views concerning things in general. But nobody could indulge in doubt about the news for any length of time,and by Saturday everybody was anxious to know what you thought of Greeley's nomination. I never knew an occasion when so few people were ready to give an opinion, and so many were anxious t^get one.

Since Sunday, however, there has beeu a change, and Greeley's nomination and prospects are now seriously discussed on all bauds, and people are beginning to take sides with great rapidity. The Grant set are less mirthful and sarcastic than they were at first the ultra Free Trade Liberal Republicans are enraged over the selling out of their cause, at Cincinnati, to Greeley the Greeley party among the Republicans are rapidly gainingstreugth the supporters of Greeley in the Democratic party are already powerful at on?e in numbers and determination the Germans—it is hard to say what conclusion they will come to after they have had time to think over the matter, but they will surely, in any event, hold out against Grant.

CIIAOS.

I have never before known such a condition of political chaos and confusion as exists at the present time, in all parties, aud among all classes. You have but to listen to the talk of a score of Republicans, a score of Democrats, and a score of "iedependent voters," to realize how greatly the political bonds and associations of other times have been broken up within the last few months.

To Democrats.

Is there any difference or principle between the Democratic party as it stands to-day and the Liberal Republicans? Does Horace Greeley, as a candinate for President, represent any idea or any system of public policy which the Democratic party can not heartily adopt and support

Horace Greeley is for universal amnesty. He is for the supremacy of civil authority over military force. He is for maintaining the rightful balance between the States and the National Government, and for putting an eud to all aggressions of the one upou the other. He is for the purification of the civil service, and for puttingdown aud preventing administrative and legislative corruption. He is for the supremacy of the law. He is for reduced and equitable taxation. He is tor economical and honest expenditure of the public money. He is for the restoration of specie payments and specie currency at the earliest possible day. He is for maintaining the honor and dignity of the Government and the democratic aud liberalizing ideas of our republican system in our relations with foreign powers.

Is there anything in these principles that Democrats do not thoroughly and enthusiastically approve? Is there any important issue now before the country for settlement that is not included in this platform? Is there any reason for the preseu day aud hour why the Democracy should not support Horace Greeley, standiug upon sitfeh a platform ami pledged to carry out ita doctrines if elected President?

So perfect is the accord between the principles above stated and the views aud purposes of the Democratic party, and so free is Horace Greeley from any objection on accouut of any political doctrine or any public measure now at issue before the people, that Democrats ol high standiug have not hesitated to declare that if under the present* circumstances the Democratic party should reject such principles and such a candidate, it would simply commit suicide.

But we will not argue the question. We merely state obvious 'facts and con"siderati«ns. If, on the whole, the Democratic party prefer to continue Grant and his camp-followers in control of the country, we can probably stand it quite as well as they can.—N. Y. S"n.

A sc HUB-HEADED boy, having, beeu brought before the court as witness, the following amusiug colloquy ensued: "Where do you live?" inquired the Judge. "Live with my mother." "Where does your mother live?" "She lives with father.". "Where does he live?" "He lives with the old folks." "Where do they live?" says the Judge, getting very red, as an audible titter goes round the court room. "They live at home." Where in thunder is their home?" "That's where I'm from," said the boy, sticking his tongue in the corner of his cheek and slowly closing one eye on the Judge. "Here, Mr. Constable, take this witness out and tell him to tfavel he evidently does not know the nature of an oath."

MR. GREELEY received the first information of his nomination from the American Press Association dispatch, which bait been bulletined at the News and Mail offices, a lew doors from the

Tribune. As soon as the bystanders read the announcement they moved in an immense crowd to the Iribune office shouting, "Greeley!" "Greeley!" He apneared in the counting-room, and the office rang with cheers Uncovering himself, he bowed to the crowd, in the meantime blushing to the roots of bis hair. Cries of "Speech!" "Speech!" then burst from the enthus'»stic crowd, but he declined to respond, aud passing iuto his private office l*pked himself in. An army of reporters then assailed the office, bent on interviewing Greeley, but he refused to be interviewed.

Murder at Richmond.

Particnlars of tlie Tragedy. RICHMOND,IND., May 10.—About half-p-ist 5 o'clock this afternoon, during an alarm of fire, Mr. Joshua Dve, acred about thirty,"who is in partnership with his father, and owns a erocery at Abbingfon, eirht miles south of here, entered W. H. Bennett's livery stable on Main street, and wished to hire ahorse and bugery to take him borne. He was much intoxicated and quarreled with the clerk about the price of the conveyance. Passing into the rear of the stable, where a colored hostler, Sol. Davis, was greasing harness, it is said he stniek Davis twice with a head stall. The latter firt struck Dve with lines, whereupon Davis used offensive language and the neirro, who, as usual was considerably intoxicated, struck him a powerful blow, and commenced

There is considerable excitement and mauy conflicting humors, but the above is considered reliable. Some assert that Davis struck Dye upon the side of the neck with a heavy neck-yoke, and an usrly wound on tlie head indicates either a severe fall or a blow from a blunt instrument.

The authorities forbid any conversation with the prisoner.

OLIVE LOOAN commenced one of her lectures at Newark, recently, with the remark "Whenever I see a pretty girl, I want to clasp her in my arms." "So do we," shouted the boys in the gallery. For a moment Olive was nonolussed, but, recovering her self-posses3ion, she replied: "Well, boys, I don't blame you."
