A few week.s a'O a large number of Republican journals poured the red hot hell of deri.iion into tho liberal Republican movement; later they began to characterize it as a meeting of disappointed office-seekers and their friends which would amount to nothing; but within a week past, while Cincinnati has found its hotels gorged with delegates to the convention, conven-tion, tho tone of these papers has materially chauRcd, and tho wiser among them do not endeavor to oonccal their fears that it may result in a coalition coali-tion which will change the political aspect of the country. The Cincinnati coaventioa meeta this morning. Nearly every State in the Union is represented, and the delegations delega-tions from somo of them aro very numerous and influential. Of tho speculations concerning the probable candidates the press dispatches have been and are furnishing considerable information, yet speculations now aro comparatively useless when a few days more will givo the result. The convention con-vention will likely organize to day and by to-morrow will be ready for the business before it. |
