"Soldiers' Convention."

The convention of soldiers, which recently assembled at Pittsburg, passed a series of resolution?, which proved it to have been a convention of demagogues, composed of the same old political hacks who ran the Grand Army of the Republic into politic?, and then ran it in the ground.

Henry Wilson was the principal speaker, and all the service he did his country during the entire war was, remaining in Congress and drawing his $5,000 per annum. It is said he made pretty good time in running from Bull Run. That he was never closer than live miles of that fight, we have positive personal knowledge and that he played a Yankee triek to get his conveyance even that close to danger, is known to several gentlemen of this city. He is peculiarly fitted to address a convention of soldiers. He has shown himself to be a most arrant demagogue since he became a candidate for the Vice Presidency, and the soldiers who, in a soldiers' convention, pass resolutions endorsing C4rant and Wilson, write themselves down greater demagogues and bigger asses than even the Natick cobbler himself.

WE weep for that very virtuous gentleman whose sensitive feelings were so frightfully lacerated b3\£he GAZETTE'S description of Mr. Grant's stumper, Tilly. In the simplicity of his nature he can't see the connection between wigwam and squaw.

WILLIAM HENRY SMITH,"sinceissuing his edict, through the Associated Press, for the suppression of Tilly Fletcher, has assumed the position of managing editor of the Chicago Tribune. He will relieve the Hon. Horace White in the active duties of the daily issue.

THE Mat toon Journal man, after having admiringly feasted his eyes on the magnificent personal appearance of Mr. Grant's orator, Tilly, during the deliverance of her speech, excuses his meagre report of her remarks as follows

Mr. Grant's Colored Guards. Mr. Grant's paper here, denies "the intimation that there was a disturbance or difficulty of any kind between the colored escort, or between anybody, at the pole-raising at the nail works, the other night."

As it gets well along in its denial, the organ grows indignant, and winds up by asserting that any such intimation "is utterly false and without the slightest foundation whatever in fact."

This denial is emphatic enough, and from any other source ought to satisfy the most incredulous. But the fact is, and it can be easily established, that there was a disturbance in connection with that pole-raising, and it was in the colored e-cort club. One of the members, a mere youth, stepped out of the ranks and was assaulted, as uear as we can learn. The lad was defended by others and a general row resulted. Next morning a number were fined by 'Squire Nehf, and Wall street was considerably worked up about the matter. Some of the boys sai 1 that they would never inarch in the procession again.

WOOD'S Household Magazine for October is at haXd and, like preceding numbers, is very useful and exceedingly interesting in all its departments. Gail Hamilton, the chief editor, contributes an article refuting the old saying of love's lab lost." under the head of "Love's Labor No( Lost."

MR. GRANT'S Printing House paper grows indignant because Mr. Greeley is to attend the Cincinnati and Louisville Expositions. Mr. Grant don't care anything about Expositions, hence Mr. Gree« ley is invited. Mr. Grant would rather go to a dog fight or horse race.

LEXINGTON, KY., Sept. 19.—The attendance at the races yesterday afternoon was good and the sport fair. The favorite in the first race was Susan Ann, who made such a good record in the East but sh« broke down badly almost from the start. The first race was two mile heats for a purse of four hundred dollars. There were four entries. In the first, heat Aureola won, Molly Wood was second, Susan Ann third and May Viley last. Time, 3:37|.

The Tribune's Leavenworth special says Letters have been brought to light here within the past twenty-four hours which reveal several very interesting chapters on Kansas and National politics. The letters were found iu a letter press, among the papers of T. M.

D. Anthony.

Among the letters are a number from Jas. F. Legate to Senator Pomeroy and Willis Gay lord, and from Sol Miller and several other persons to Legate. They implicate Pomeroy in Andy Johnson's impeachment, and shows that Legate rebelled against the attempt to fasten the obloquy of forgery upon him in order to screen Pomeroy.

That noble instrument recognizes no distinction between citizens of the United States based on ^eoKft^and I should be governed thereby.

REPUDIATIXG GRAflT'

Another Life-long Repnblican Join Reform Ranks—Florida Rained Grant's Administration.

General William Birney, of Florida son of James G. Birney, the first Aboli tion candidate for President, has written a letter in which he repudiates Grant and thus gives his reasons for supporting Greeley: "It is with pain that I take this step. I have been an active member of the Kepublican party since its organization, as I was of its predecessor, the Liberty party. I bore arms five years to support its policy. I glory in its proud record of gallant service to the human race I eti tertain a high respect for General Graut as a military man, and a warm personal friendship for Senator Wilson, but the cluty of the hour I conceive to be to support the old-time Republican, Horace Greeley.

The four years fule in Florida of men calling themselves Republicans has put put the State on the road to ruin, morally, politically aud financially, and rtidst Of the evil has been done by a confederated band of United States officials, who have used their leisure to devote themselves to the trickery of State politics, seize on the party machinery, emulate State offices iu their own hands and in those of their degraded parasites, and form a legislative ring to aid their private speculations. Superficial as they are corrupt, they have got the State finances into a hopeless tangle taxes are unequal, everywhere oppressive, and in some counties equal to the annual rental of property delinquent tax collectors are not brought to justice in the only honest effort to prosecute an indictment against a number of the ring, a Revenue Collector for the State Senator, for embezzlement of county funds, the State Attorney himself was removed to prevent his trying the cauie.

Sound Republicans have again and again brought this state of things to the notice of the President, who, if I am correctly informed, has always sheltered himself under the rights of patronage conceded by political usages to United States Senators. There would be force in this if the President had enforced the rule of the Treasury Department forbidding its subordinates to hold State offices the suspension of this rule to euable Treasury officers in Florida to hold seats in the Legislature is equivalent to intervention in our Senatorial elections by the President. The only hope of restored prosperity and morality to Florida, it is clear, lies in the defeat by the people of the President's special friends, nnd the only way to effect this is the cordial uuion of all true men under the Liberal Republican banner. Yours, &c.,

WILLIAM BIRNEY.

Horace Greeley's Address on Industrial Progress. NEW YORK, Sept. 17.—In his interest^ ing industrial address at the Newark exposition last night, Mr. Greeley concluded as follows: "By means of the telegraph the world is becoming one commonwealth. What is known in one land is known almost simultaneously in all others, and the interests, aspirations, and conceptions of the people of all countries are becoming closely interwoven. About twenty-one years ago I groped my way up a dark stairs iu Fulton street, New York, to see a sewing machine. EliasHowe, Jr., the inventor, sat there, wild and seedy-looking, frightened.at the approach of a stranger. He thought I had come to steal his idea from him. When I told him I had not come to take his sewing machine, he became communicative and told me what he had hoped from his wonderful combination of the needle and the shuttle. Now there are a million sewing machines in use, and six immense factories are busy turniug out more to meet the demand. I believejthat as we improve iu our lightening human labor deputing the heaviest muscular work to that faithful servant, steam, that we will also improve the conditions of wages and labor that the system of weekly pay now iu vogue will gl?e way to even a better system, where the. laborer will have a personal and direct interest, not only in the quantity but the quality of his work, and that he will have a co-oj-erative interest in the work which capital now commands*— Thus labor and capital wilt'be brought gradually and quietly j,uto better aud nobler accord.
