A Washington correspondent of the Anti-Slavery Stondard, writing about the President, says “the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court is tts ally,”? and Continues in this highly wronghtzstrain:—“Salmon P. Chase, mad with the Presidential fever and desperate in the consciousness of baffled plans, meanly jealous of Wade, and, perhaps, chorishing the forlorn hope of & democratic nomination, joins forces with the enemy, and stands as the Presidential ally, It has been known for a long time.that the relations between the Chief Justice awd President were more cordial than was made necessary by the mere official relation of the parties, an@ last Wednesday night the rooms of the Chief Justice, filled with the gay and fashionable winter s of Washington, were startled as by an electric shock when the doors were flung open and the usher in 4 loud voice announced “the President of the United States and daughter.” Few who were present with me will soon forget the sig- nificant leoks which passed from face to face through those brilliant and crowded rooins as the nnusual event of the President of the United States attending an evening reception of the Chief Jsstice was fully realized. His carping letter to the Senate, his refusal at first to obey the mandate to 2s its presiding oMecer, and his decisions of | the following q ay are but the ‘first unfolding of a plot rnct and défeat as far as possible the convic- of the President, How far he may be able to Kk harm depends, of course, on the firmness of ute; dni, in eny event, he isa serious obstacie, i tions only limited by his courage, which latter, fortunately, is not great.
