Recent accounts from America are very fAvourable to the chances
of Mr. Greeley. The New York Democrats have accepted him with enthusiasm, as have also the Democratic Conventions of Kansas, Iowa, and South Carolina. It is believed that the Con- ventions of Ohio, Indiana, Florida, and Delaware, which are already sitting, will follow the same course ; and Illinois, which is influenced by Senator Trumbull, may be considered secured. The probability therefore that the Democratic Convention which meets on Monday will regularly nominate Mr. Greeley, instead of merely declining to nominate anyone, is increasing. If it does, the fight will be one of the most severe on record. The bitterness of the strife may be understood from the fact that Mr. Sumner, openly and in his place in the Senate, charges General Grant with having appointed every living relative to office, with accumulating a. fortune out of gifts repaid by high appointments, and with in- tending to establish Cwsarism.
