Senator Coukling in PlattsburglOa Thursday evening, from hill

from valley, and from all the surrounding plain, the sturdy yeomanry oClinton County began to arrive in towito listen to the political Bpeech ofYork's eloquent Senator. As every-thing indicated that a large audiencewould be in attendance, the committei

id erected a stand in front of the Epii>pal church and made arrangementir au open air meeting. But when

the Senator arrived he declined to speakthe open air, fearing the injury that

The Senator's voice was clear and hisinnciation distinct. Every word spok-i had a meaning. The Liberal Eepub

__cans and the Democrats, the coalition-ists, who make up the Dolley Vardensuccotash party, received proper atten-tion at his hands.

style of maneuvering. But when th(Senator spoke of President Grant anaiiis administration, and referred to his-tory for the proof of his statements, hewas applauded to the echo. For me-than two hours he kept his audiencerapt attention, and when he made hnbow over his hist period, there was at>nce a spontaneous rising and thowingip of hats all over the hall, that not ony spoke the thanks of the audience fobe Senator's stirring address, but alsold of earnest work to.be performed iilie country until Grant is re-elected iibe autumn of 1872, and Mr. Greeley antis friends are taught the valuable les-on they very much need—viz., "Thor - 1

With the exception of Long Branch, whiifashion has claimed as its own peculiar possesion. the pleasure resorts in the vicinity of tlcity have fallen a prey to the rough. From Ho-boken to Boekaway he is everywhere fonnd,poisoning the air with, bad tobacco, insultingwomen with his foul language, and preying uponthe pockets of feeble or heedless men. On Bun-days, especially, he gathers himself together onexcursion trains and boats, and descends like iparticularly unpleasant plague of Egypt upoithe rural and sea-side retreats that are wlthii

The Straif ht-ont movement .

As the time for the National Conven-tion of the straight-oat Democrats atLouisville, Ky., approaches, we are ablemore clearly to estimate the strength ofthe movement and to judg&of its influ-ence in the coming election. That theConvention will represent no inconsidera-ble portion of the rankandfileof the Dem-ocracy, together with a few of the old-time leaders, iB now apparent. How farit will extend the seism, whether it will

ake nominations and strong ones, or baiptured by the more wily and leas hon-

est leaders who favor the Greeley con-spiracy, as some think, remains to be

Th those who argue thate straight-out move-will be shorn if the

Greeley conspirators can succeed inproving that they will be able to obtainthe object all of them have in view bysupporting Greeley and Brown. Butthis is not probable, for the leaders inthe straight-out movement are not dis-posed to resort to subterfuge and strate-gem to secure recognition of their prin-iples. They prefer defeat with flyingng banners, rather than triumph by ar-

tifice, or seeming acquiescence in doc-trines they detest. Of this mould iaAlexander H. Stephens, who advises aregular Democratic State ticket in Geor-gia, and urges attendance at Louisvillen order to secure a simon-pure Demo-cratic Presidential nomination. Mr.Stephens is not alone in his State. Adozen influential Democratic papers arefollowing his lead, and will make theseism felt. In Louisiana there is quiteas pronounced a body of straight-outs,who will doubtless send delegates toLouisville. In other Southern Statesthe movement is gaining daily. TheWestern States will have a full represen-tation in the Convention. New England

sympathies are all in that direction. Themovement may well cause alarm in theGreeley camp.—Boston Journal
