SATURDAY, MAY 11,1872.
Democratic Opinion as to the Ratification or Greeley at Baltimore. Special dispatches to the Cincinnati Commercial, contain the following: "The coming Democratic and Republican National Conventions at Baltimore and Philadelphia continue to be the fruitful source of speculation here in political circle. Hon. James Brooks, of New York, whose active participation in politics for thirty years has given him a National reputation, in conversation today, stated it to be his opinion that Greeley will receive
three-fourths
of the
votes cast in the Democratic National Convention. He says three-fourths of the New England delegates, all New York, the greater part of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, several delegates from Ohio and Indiana, nearly all of Illinois and Michigan part of "Wisconsin, all of Minnesota, Iowa, Nebraska, Oregon, California, and all the South, except part of Georgia, will be for Greeley. He expects the ratification of Greeley's nomination will be warmly opposed by delegates from Ohio, Indiana and Georgia such opposition to come from gentlemen whose views are generally extreme. There may be, he thinks, a rupture in the convention, but its ultimate effect will be only to strengthen Greeley among the Republicans.
a noticeable fact that a large majority of the Democratic Senators and Representatives here, who do not like Greeley, nevertheless state that they will abide by the action of the National Convention.
Ralph Waldo Hutehius writes here to John D. Defrees that the most influential and sagacious Democrats yi New York approve the Cincinnati nomination, and will support it. In this connection, General Slocum, of New York, at present Representative from that State, having telegraphed to leading members of the Legislature at Albany as to how th« Democratic members were affected toward Greeley, received a reply to-day that there was not a single member of that body but were favorable to ratifying Greeley at Baltimore.
As to the Philadelphia Convention the Administration men seem to have achieved the philosophical conclusion that they will support the nominee of Philadelphia, even if it should not be Grant. The candidacy of the latter and unqualified support thereof are no longer the absolute conditions of Republicanism. The Baltimore American, an officeholding organ, edited and owned by office-holders, this morning published an editorial which has attracted universal attention here. It opens with the declaration that the first duty of the Philadelphia Convention will be to reunite the Republican party. It admits that if the Democrats ratify Greeley, he will be elected. It then proceeds to warn the Convention that it must so act that Greeley will not be able to entice any votes from the Republican party. This article is construed here as foreshadowing the abandonment of Grant, and the nomination of some Republican against whom there can be raised no Republican cavil."
Anti-Grant.
It is again among the political gossip that a combination is forming to place other Presidential candidates before the Philadelphia Convention, with the evident purpose of inducing Grant to withdraw. Speaker Blaine, Vice-President Colfax, Senator Wilson and Judge Wilson, of Iowa, are among the names mentioned. Whether any such movement will develop inte anything serious or not can not of course be predicted, though there is no longer any doubt that it is earnestly considered by some of the loyal adherents of the Republican party. An effort will probably be made to iuduce some of the Western organs of the party to come out in favor of such a course. If that is done, then the reported combination will assume positive shape, and an earnest effort will be made at Philadelphia to reunite the Republican party
011
a ticket headed by some other name than Grant.
Horace Greeley and the Tariff. The New York correspondent of the Boston Globe, who has lately visited Mr. Greeley, put the question to him as to his views on the tariff, and how far they would influence his action if elected President. Here is the question and here is the response for, "For instance, if it so come to pass in the course of events that Congress would favor the repeal of the Tariff Bill, what would be your aotion, as President, iu the premises'?"
Greeley—"I should immediately give wav to the wishes of the people as expressed through their Representatives in Congress, and would promptly sign any bill passed by it."
THE Vermillion Transcript, Democratic, in speaking of the nominees of the Cincinnati Convention, says:
We are free to say as between these men and the Cincinnati platlotm, and Grant or anv ot his clique, and the platform of the Administration, we will be found on the side of Greeley, Brown and Liberal Reform,
Letter from Montgomery Blair. Montgomery Blair has written the following letter on the Cincinnati Convention and the future course of. the Democratic party. It is addressed to a prominent Democrat in fialtimore:
WASHINGTON, May 7, 1872.—We will have to take Greeley or Grant, and we will take Greeley—reluctantly, of course, but not the less certainly and he will be the most certain of election because the Democrats do not wish to embrace him at first. As for their running a candidate or their own, that would be both disastrous and disagreeable. They all gave in adbesion to th©
Cincinnati
Convention, and the
most obstreperous of Greeley's opponents had their candidate before that Convention. Voorhees, for example, was loud in his advocacy of Judge Davis and the World was earnest in pressing Adams.
Xow, there certainly ean be no greater departure from principle in supporting Greeley than there would be in supporting Davis or Adams, or any other Radical. There can be, in fact, no motive assigned for the support of one of these men and the refusal to support either of the others, but mere personal prejudice. This is not statesmanship it is mere caprice, if not something worse, which men can indulge in without the loss of public confidence.
For my own part, I go for the movement initiated at Cincinnati to arrest the further progress of Radicalism. It is the only practical way of arresting it. As for running in a straight Democratic ticket between Greeley acd Grant, that is a dodge that will not be allowed to succeed. That can be done only in the small field of l»cal politics, where the contest between the real aspirants is personal, and has become embittered. But the contest between the Republican and Democratic parties has always been a sectional contest, one part^ representing the North, and the other the South. And while that contest retains that character Republican success is assured by the censas. It is only by dividing the numerous North and allying itself with the more liberal division that Democracy, representing the South, can hope for the recovery of the right of selfgovernment for its section. The moment that the Democracy shall set up for itself, the North will close its ranks again, and the only effect would be to sacrifice the leaders in the Liberal party who had attempted to help us. This would disgrace us, and so help to defeat us. Not only now, but hereafter.
Of course there will be some honest Democrats who will not regard the subject in this light, and who will prefer to stand by their guns, etc. But the noisiest fellows will be those who are in the pay of the Administration. Chandler said recently, I hear on good authority, that there wonld be a straight Democratic ticket, and he would give $25,000 to start it himself. There are a good many Domocrats of the Tweed order ready to take his money and help to keep the statu quo which is profitable to them—fellows who understand manipulating elaims quietly. The Administration has the public purse at their disposal, and understands them and how to make the most of them.
There were over one hundred officeholders of them, Grant's emissaries, in Cincinnati working for Adams. They were nearly all from Washington. I can furnish the names of about fifty of them. The strategy of Grant's friends was to secure for hitn the Irish vote by putting Adams on us, and so compensate for the loss of the Liberal Republican vote. But he failed, and they are furious. The great majority of Adams' supporters did not understand it, but the public mind is now thoroughly aroused and when this is the case the power of purchasable individuals and of the venal press is inconsiderable.
THERE will be no change in the Philadelphia programme. Grant will, of necessity, be the candidate there. As the case now stands, and with all his weakness, he is the strongest man whom the office-holders can nominate and the question still is whether he will be defeated by the Liberal Republican candidate supported by the Democracy, or whether the Democratic party will be induced to nominate a straight ticket of their own, and thus insure Grant's election.
A CORRESPONDENT of the New York Herald says that Mr. Greeley is essentially the friend of the working man, whether he be a hod-carrier or a millionaire. That is true. No man coulji have been placed on the ticket, whose sympathies are nearer to the great laboring classes of the country. A model of heroic industry himself, he believes in the rights of labor, as he has exemplified in his own experience its honorable rewards.
JUDGE DAVIS hit the nail directly on the head the other day, when he said to au interviewer: "This is a popular movement, in which the politicians will have to follow the people." There is no doubt the politicians have been beaten at several points already in this Liberal movement, and that by an earnest uprising of the people. Judge Davis has reason to know this, if any one has.
THE Baltimore American, edited by the Cairman of the Republican Committee of Maryland, has a striking editorial calling upon the Philadelphia Convention to reunite the party, and iutimating that the only way it can be done is to select another candidate than Grant.
THE Chicago News says: "It is useless to conceal the fact that the Democratic party of Illinois are, considered as a whole, favorably impressed with the idea of supporting the platform and candi dates of the Cincinnati Convention."
JUDGE J. D. CATON, one of the most prominent Democrats in Illinois, and a friend of Judge Davis, has written a two-column letter in favor of the Democracy endorsing the ticket of Greeley and Brown.
THE Democratic Convention of Tennessee, which met at Nashville, on Thursday, declared in favor of the Cincinnati nominees, Greeley and Brown. This an an unmistakable evidence of public sentiment in the South.
The Question of the Day.
Ever since the Convention at Cincinnati the only, question respecting the ticket has been Will the Democracy support it
Everybody understands that if the Democracy and the Liberals vote for Horace Greeley, he will be carried into the White House on a perfect whirlwind of enthusiasm.
Well, all the indications to-day are that the Democracy will vote for Horace Greeley for President and B. Gratz iBrown for Vice President in November next.
The tendency of the Democratic party to this noble and patriotic resolve has been evident from the first. It is true that Horace Greeley has been a persistent and manful opponent of that party but it is also true that to oppose him now is to support Graut and to keep the power in the corrupt, lawless and incompetent hands that now weild it.
The Democrats of all the old slave States area unit for Greeley. The German Democrats are ready to support Greeley.
The Irish Democrats are enthusiastic for Greeley, and will not hear of any other candidate.—.iV. Y. Sun.
Another Indication in Favor of Mr. Greeley's Success. The London Times is against the election of Mr. Greeley for President of the United States. Other aristocratic jour
nals of England concur with the Times in hostility to the Liberal candidate. This is encouraging. If the Times had been in favor of the Cincinnati nomination all true Americans might have had reason to fear that there was some mistake about it. The opposition of the aristocratic and monarchical press of England will confirm all friends
of
liberty
and democratic ideas in the conviction that in supporting Horace Greeley for President they are doing what is right.
IF the fusion is carried out in good faith between the Liberal Greeley Republicans and the Democrats, in the adoption of the Greeley and Brown ticket, they (tffe Fusionists) will carry nearly every Congressional district in the States of Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, and secure nearly all the county offices, from Sheriffs down to Coroners. This local supremacy for the right is well worth considering. The fusion is not for the Union alone, but it is for the States, the comities, the cities and the towns, and everywhere it will root out the Grantites who are now in office.— Cin. Enquirer.
Editorial Notices are so common that it is almost impossible for an editor to express his honest opinion of any article without being suspected of interested motives. This fact, however, shall not deter us from saying what we think of a new addition to the Materia Medica to which our attention has been recently directed. We' refer to DR. J. WALKER'S CALIFORNIA VINEGAR BITTERS, a remedy which is making its way into more families just now than all the other advertised medicines put together. There seems to be no question about the potency of its tonic and alterative properties, while it possesses the great negative recommendation of containing neither alcohol nor mineral poison. That it is a specific for Indigestion, Billiousness, Constipation, and many complaints of nervous origin, we have reason to know and we are assured on good authority that as a general invigorant, regulating and purifying medicine, it has no equal, It is stated that its ingredients, (obtained from the wilds of California,) are new to the medical world and its extraordinary effects certainly warrant the conclusion that it is a compound of agents hitherto unknown. If popularity is any criterion, there can be no doubt of the efficiency of of the VINEGAR BITTERS, for the sale of the article is immense and continually increasing.
The History of a National Remedy.— Here is the history of the most celebrated tonic of the age in a nutshell. In 1860 it was announced that a certain combination of vegetable ingredients, with a pure diffusive stimulant, was working wonders in the cure of chronic dyspepsia, nervous debility, liver complaint, periodical fevers, rheumatism and constitutional weakness. The unpretending name given to the specific was PLANTATION BI'WERS. The statement attracted the invalids everywhere. The new remedy received a fair trial, and the results more than confirmed all that had been said in its praise. Thenceforward it was a grand success. The business columns of the press spread the glorious news far, and wide, and the martyrs to indigestion, billiousness, physical prostration and premature decay, as if by common consent, sought relief from the new vegetable restorative. They found what they sought. Trom that time to the present the increase in the demand for Plantation Bitters has been one of the most striking events in this age.

AGAIX VICTORIOUS!
Our recent onslaught upon the Carpet trade caused a decided sensatiou. We have never seen a more complete success. Within 24 hours after we had announced our prices to the public, our Carpet room, was crowded with customers, and each week our sales of these goods have continued to increase.
It is the Hit Bird that Flutters!
This accounts for the fluttering amoim our competitors. They erot their backs up at once and rushed into print to tell
the
pets to the price of ours. The people answered, "We don't believe you, aud even if you have, Foster Brother- compelled you to lower your prices, or you would never have done it. We propose to tjive our patronage to the merchants whose prices are so low that they have never had to reduce them to meet the prices of other stores."

Knowing, as we did, that his "Hand Loom" Carpets, for which he was charging $1.40 and $1.50, were exactly the goods that were selling at $1.20 and $1.25, and that his so-called "Family" Carpets at $1.00 were the same as our 85c goods, we submitted to him four distinct challenges on the subject, which he lias not dared to accept.
The brief campaign of the past few weeks has placed us
AT THE HEAD OF THE CARPET TRADE!
WE PROPOSE TO KEEP THE LEAD!
We shall do it by offering to the public ouly well kuown brands of Carpets, and by always representing our goods to be just what they are. As we shall keep no makes of Carpets to which the manufacturers are ashamed to put their names, it will never become necessary for us to dub any of them "Finger Looms" or "Family Frauds."
