Tlio Democracy of Nmv York as
sembled in Stuto Convention at Ro
chester, on tho 5ih, and tho Radicals
met at Syracuse the lny provious. In
tho former entire hnrmoiiy prevniled,
notwithstanding tho sovero denuncia
tions of tho Tammany tonuptionists;
while the liittcrncoms to have been con
trolled by a mob niado up of Awsessors,
Collectors and I'ost Masters, which
hud to bo quelled by the police. The
New York Herald and tho Sun thus
draw tho contrast betwocn tho two
conventions. The Herald says s
''Tlie Rochester Convention presents to tlio
ciuntry in oue respect a gnitilyiug contrast to
tho Hyrneuee gathering of InM vn-k. It proceed
ings thus far bare bean orderly aud dignified,
wlnlo thoso of tlio ltcpu'jte.ins were marked by
scene of rowdyism worthy of tlio pullnicat darn
of tlio Empire Club or the Moxart organisation.
Tho tiino wns wliou Demoerjoy wns supposed to
lio ft synouytn for ruQinnisui at all public nio-.-t-Ingr
aut if we are to jud?o from the experience
nl' tlie present yenr the political parties appear to
liavt exchanged characteristics, anil tbe lighting,
sweoriu;?, cudgelling and shoulder-hitting ecera to
be monopolized bv ll.fi hitherto respectable repub
lic.ins." 'i'ho Smi fsys :
"Tho contrast between tha Repulilleatl anil
lltuiocratio State Conventions I worth noting.
Tlio tlinnt Convention wai punked with rougUa
and policemen, who assailed tlio lin-elcv dck-g;it-a,'
and disgraced lite meeting by a terrible row. The
lluineurats s.'ttled tbiir dilierewuua beluro the
t'onv.-nllon bcan. and everything moved oil
quietly, no rouglis or pilicttnan being present."
The Kkform" Comi.no. Tho Stato
Superintendent of Common Schools
has issued a circular to the School
Directors of tho State, informing them
that negro children nro ontillod to the
Kitmo rights and privileges in tho
common schools thnt is accorded to
white olios. And as soon as twenty
negro children can bo collected tho
Directors must build' them n house
und hire a teacher, or admit them
into tho schools with the wliilrj chil
dren. Thero nre plenty of localities
in tho Stato whero that number of
whito children uro beyond reasonable
distance from a school bouso, yet wo
do not now recollect that our Stato
authorities ever took a similar interest
in twunly whitc.chlldrcn. This js a
king sliiJc toward bringing uhiiu
children down to tlio degradation of
African offsprings.
Returning. Tho Grants, Dents,
Porters, Btibeoeks, und other govern
ment families, spent last Friday in
Pittsburg. The President ' of tlio
United States was not insulted and
blackguarded on this occasion as was
Andrew Johnson in 1807, whan ho
visited that godly, loyul city. The
heavy, reduction of the Radical majo
rity in Allegheny county tho pact few
years bus evidently improvod ' the
miners of tho inhabitants of tho
Smoky City. Tlio President of tho
United Stutes can now pass through
Pittsburg without being insulted.
Hunting Relation. For two
weeks Gcti. Crawl lias been scouring
tho Wostcrn States on tho hunt of
relatives. Ho has only appointed
forty-four to office yet, and bo thinks
thuro nro slill some more somewbero

- As for what Gon. Grant can afford,
ho will probably judge for himself.
lie has reason to believo that be can
afford just what ho pleasot. Thoso
w'no make a fuss ubout Tom Murphy
and lolerulo all lho rost, aro like those
celebrated humbugs who strain at a

There is a great outcry among the
Republican journals for tho resignation
of Honest Tom Murphy, Collector of
lho fort 01 rtew lorlc.
Why don't they first invito Useless
3. Grant to resign his office as Presi
dent f Murphy is in every way bet
ter as a Collector than Grant is as
President. His administration Is im
mensely ahead of Grant's in honesty,
ability, and dignity.
After tlio dissatisfied Republicans
havo got Grant to resign, il will be
time enough for them to try their
hand on Murphy. JV. V. .Van.

Served Hi.m Riiiiit. In tlio Court
of Quarter Sessoins in Philadelphia on
Siiturduy Inst, Judgo Porco fined
Edgar M. Chipinan, u member of tho
bar, ?'.'& for contempt of Court, in
having declared fo a witness while
under examination that ho was guilty
of perjury. Tho Judgo said that a
witness on (ho stand, or while attend
ing court, Is entitled to protection
from all outrugos of his feelings or
person ; and that although in order to
elicit tho truth, tho ingenuity and
even tho boldness of counsel mny be
exorcised toward a witness who is ob
stinato or refractory, or who prevari
cates, to go beyond this and cbnrgo
him Willi lalsehood Is to pass I rom
the domain of reason nnd examination
into that of passion nnd outrage upon
the proprieties of tho occasion, tlie
dignity of tlio Court, and tho rights
of the witness. Tho uso of insulting
language toward witnesses by coun
sel is not uncommon in courts of jus
tico; but tho infliction of a penalty
for such conduct is 0 novelty.

Grant Butlkred. Tho Now York
Sun makes tho following contrast be.
twecn tho Massachusetts Senators
and President Grant :
Gen. Ben. Puller found Senator
Sumner and Sonntor Wilson together
in Boston tho othor day. "Did you,
asked Bui ler, "authorize tho announce
ment that you were bolh against my
nomination for Governor V "Wo did,"
wns tlio prompt and manly answer.
In lho summer of ISfii Gen. Grant,
nt City rolnt, issued an order rcmov
ing Gen. Butler from the command of
the Army of lho Jumcs. The ordor
wns issued oflcr much deliberation.
A copy was sent to Butler at Bermu
da Hundred in lho evening. The next
morning bo camo over to City Point
wilh tlio order in his hand. "Did
yon," he asked Gen. Grant, "direct
that th;s order should bo issued T"
Grant seemed to be stunned. "I did
not direct il to bo issued in this form."
Tho order was withdrawn, and Butler
remained in command of the Army of
tho'Jamcs until his failure at lort
Fisher.
Dkxteb, AC.MinrnoM Mn. Bonnes
Editors F.mnina Express: I have
observed in your paper a paragraph
stating that cortuin citizens of Mil
waukee offer to make a bet of 810,000,
if Dexter will trot on their course.
This proposition is absurd on ils faco,
ns everybody knows I novor allow my
horses to trot for money ; but even if
1 woro going to trot lor monev1, 1 cor
tainly would not do it on a track like
tlieMihvaukcotf.uk, where a quarter
of a mile is out of siirhl of tho judges.
You might us woll talk about trotting
a horso on a pilch dark inirtit, whero
nobody oould see whether tho horses
trotted or ran. But whilo I do not
bet, I nm ready, as I havo previously
offered, to pny $10,000 for lho more
privilege or Boeing nny horso equal
Dexler's lust preut performance, whon
ho trotted a milo to a road wason in
2:2M.
Another absurd report is tho one
that liexler was Inloly ncaton on liar
lorn Lnno ono Sunday morning. In
tho first pluco, I never drivo or even
travel on Sunday, and Dexter 'never
was on Ilsrlcm Lane in Ins lifo on
Sunday. Moreovor, ho never was
beaten on Harlem Lano any day

Tub Result ts Massachusetts.
Tho defeat of Ben Butler in Massn
cliusotts is the defeat of Grant. Nol
that they lovo each olhor : on tho
contrary, thoir animosity is sincoro,
Grant detcils Buller, and Butler
would liko nothing so well as to cut
the throat of Grant. Put their com
mon haired of Sumner and Wilson,
and olhcr Republican leaders, makes
them lor a lnno hrm and luilhtul allies.
Butler bns hnd tho support of the
Custom House, and generally of all
the tools of lho Administration.
Loudly proclaiming himself tho hjio
cial advocalo of Grant's re nomina
tion, ho has endeavored to break down
all opposition, not only against him
self, but against the President,
In this effort ho has been defeated,
and Grant has been defeated with
lit til. It was a great victory for tho
causo of personal ant) oflleial honesty
and fur tho gonuino Republican party
which was won al Worcester on Wed
nesday. "Gone Up." A Radical orgaaal
Charleston, South Carolina, has sus
pended publication, and in ils valedic
tory It declares its death is the result
of lho Ingrnlitudo of llio Republican
pnrty of Columbia. It further dis
closes tho fact, that an unwillingness
to becomo tho ready tool of tljoifp who
would uso lho Slate government for
their' own pecuniary interests hns
drawn upon l tlie ijl will of Governor
Scott nnd his clique, who havo conse
quently denied it tho pslronago to
which it had a political cluiin. Wo
polo these facts to let the people seo
how much depondenco Is to bo placed
upon Radical orgsnp. N)' ben they play
tho proper liino'thoy are subsidized.
When they toll the truth they pino
and dio for want of support.
