The Houston nnd Texas International and Great Northern and Galveston, Houston and Henderson railroads, have already given notice to that effect. car. Bills and TIIK Sun thinks that if political management can accomplish that end, i i i be i a at Cincinnati, lie has at his back some of the most adroit political managers in Republican party, and what is very important, they fed confident of being able to nominate their man.

A paper says it seems strange to see Bnstow's friends so emphatic in their endeavors to disprove charges of corruption, when nothing that could be done will so surely insure his defeat at Cincinnati as to prove him and forget, provided they do the same. But if they do not forgive and forget, tell tiiem (pointing to the cannon) to i of that." Gen, Sheridan was next loudly called for, and replied with the assurance that ho was disposed to be as charitable as any one, but added, when I hear a man say he is going to try the same thing over again, I am going to reserve my shell." It would be easy to retort upon the and S'icridiiii way of putting the problem of reconciliation. It would be easy to convict them both of indelicacy, bad taste, nnd want of generous forbearance. But the criticism and the triumph would be alike unprofitable. The cause of genuine reconciliation is not to be advanced by drawing out the process of mutual irritation.

lu cases of this sort conlidCDCe and friendship must go hand in hand. It is morally impossible that reconciliation cau he established while cither party suspects the other of cherishing resentful memories and vindictive desires. Forgiving nnd forgetting, to become the basis of a cordial and durable good understanding, must be simultaneous with the parties and unreserved with both. It is need- Jess to proceed, further with these reflections. Let us study rather some of- the realities of tlic actual situa- I tion by the light of these recent utter-1 unccs of Gen.

Dix, Gen. Sherman and Gen. Sheridan on the subject of laying aside the abiding by the results ot the war. the average of the sentiments severally expressed, we may doubtless arrive at the average of Northern temper and thought in relation to the problem of reconciliation. Gen.

Dix assumes that irreconcilable fomcntors. Kcrth or South, ot the ancicoc-bitterness "are only sporadic coses of a moral distemper from which the great body of the people exempt." But Sherman and Sheridan, while claiming not to be behind Dix in disposition to forgive and forget, take caro to refer to the hypothesis of a revival of the Old quarrel as possible, if. not probable, contingency which ought to be. discreetly provided against. It would he useless to deny that this manner of tbe matter largely pervades the Northern mind.

Much of their time is necessarily spent in reassuring delegates alarmed at the tone of some dispatches received from Washington.

Tbis evening Senator Logan claims that Blaine has 300 votes on Srst formal ballot, and on tbc second will secure enough wanderers to put him through. Senator' Logan denies the statements that he is at "heart for Conkling.

Bristow men are making claims that on tbe second formal ballol he will have 200 votes; nearly all the Missour delegates unite on him.

Ohio men have grown to be very enthusiastic for Hayes. They had two meetings this afternoon anu evening at which reports wore made by promuitint members of delegation who have been in conference with, other delegates, "0 ing to show that there is a gcnernl feeling of confidence in the ultimate nomination of Governor Hayes as a compromise.

It was stated at the meeting that, with Elaine out of the way, a majority, of the Missouri delegation would go over to Hays, aud the remainder to Jlorton.

Kerr, but because it an act of simple justice to that cntlcman. He spoke of unfortunate circumstance which presented at the thrcshbold of the inquiry as to Kerr, a Democrat of Indiana, giving tho nomination to Greene, a Republican, and said, had it not been for that cir the committee would not have deemed it worth while to even open it.

lie was happy to say, however, that he had an idea that so far as the corruption of Mr. Eerr was concerned, there was not a single scintilla of truth in Harney's story. It was a falsehood, taken advantage of by a bad man for the purpose of attempting to blacken the reputation of a good man. lie spoke of these investigations, used by bad men like llarney, as being the very worst instruments- that can be used. This testimony of Harnev WHS but the natural outgrowth, of thtsc investigations.

Committees ofrhe House had been seen this session mousing around and dragging the public -life and private correspondence of citizens into publicity, publishing even the bank accounts of officials without charc-es and without specifications.
